Go there and follow directions to relock your Bootloader and then flash the RUU. If you need more help let me know.

Hello all! OG Evo user here, I have been given the task of rooting my boss's phone.
My first obstacle is that I see three different 'android development' sections. Galaxy S II, Galaxy S II original, and I9100S (might have got that wrong, I'm on my phone!). I see no stickies that explain this.. is it carrier specific? She has US Cellular. This leads me to my next question.
Does her carrier matter? I don't need some sort of US Cellular specific file do I? Not flashing any roms, I just want root so we can clean up her system and tether.
Last question, is clockworkmod recovery worth two craps on this phone? Cause on the OG Evo it's worthless. The only ones worth using on my phone are AmonRA and variants of it.
Thanks guys!

First thing you do is look at the sticker on the chassis of the phone under the battery & report the details back here. We don't do/tell you anything until you've done that.

Ok cool, what am I looking for? Just post everything it says?

Yes. All of it.
Reason being, I'm not going to be the person who tells you to do X assuming you have SGS2 variant A when in fact you have SGS2 variant B & doing X could brick the phone (I'm using X, A & B as examples; they're not literal).

Specifically model number. On US Cellular I suspect the model is SCH-R760.
Ok I will check it when I get the chance this week. Thanks guys!

If all you're shooting for is root access, try Superoneclick. Always worked for me.
You need to have ADB on the 'puter and the phone in debug mode.

One more thing. If I'm right about the model, then definitely don't flash anything from this forum, as this is the forum for the i9100, which is a different model phone
Hey just wanted everyone to know where they could find the stock RUU for the rezound. I've been searching for a week now and finally found a good link. This is not the global RUU. This is the one that use to be on android police but was taken down when htc started cracking down on everything. Hope this helps someone and hopefully the mods dont take this down but if they do sorry for posting.

I gave you that link in your other thread, if that's what you mean by you "finally found" it.
I read in a post in the Q&A that someone just downloaded the global RYUU from Android Police and I just clicked through to be sure before coming back to report here and at least one of the mirrors is working now. They seem to have re-allowed the downloads once it was made clear that HTC was just concerned about that one site that had their logo and name on it.
Well Damn. That's my mistake lol. I used the zip you have me but I never clicked the other link bc you said it was the global ruu and I already had that one. In any case thanks a lot just a misread on my part

Is this a stock root ruu? I'm looking for a stock root ROM to flash on the rezound for a friend.

It's not rooted but you can use the all in one toolkit to root is fairly simple I will try to find the link for you.

This should also work with the OTA radios/hboot

I've noticed on my phone that on the right side my phone is developing dust in it and on close inspection you can see that there's a big gap compared to everywhere else. I've had the phone for a few months on contract and got it through carphone warehouse and after speaking to them they said they will send it back to Samsung.
I'm on a custom ROM and need to get back to stock and reset my flash counter to get my warranty back. I've got an idea how to do it but would appreciate your guys expert knowledge. I've read that you need to use triangle away but heard people say that it can break your touchscreen.
Thanks.
Use the guide in the stickies. Easy like that.

On the triangle away thread it says if you're on s3 you need to be on stock rom for it to work but the instructions on the sticky don't say that plus he's using ICS.
Here you go: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2148708
Triangle away also runs with custom roms as it is more connected to the bootloader (?) Or recovery then the rom.

I don't know what some of these words I keep seeing mean. I was hoping there's a thread to teach me HTC terms. Is there?

Lets see...
Like the difference in s-off and unlocking the bootloader.
What s-off does.
What is hboot?
What is an RUU?
(Not a term but...) In case of an emergency how would I flash back to stock if I needed to? (Gonna miss Odin for that)
Those are the things I can think if off the top of my head.

Most of that is solved with a simple search. As for the back to stock thing we just got an ruu which is like a one click odin on the Samsung phones.

Unlocking the bootloader = able to flash custom recovery, roms, kernels.
S-Off = lets you flash all of the above, plus radios and downgrade hboot
hboot = underlying firmware of the device, without S-Off its not possible to downgrade this and you generally you want to mess with hboot as little as possible(or not at all) as there's a high potential for hard bricking your device if you do a command wrong.
RUU = basically an ODIN executable oh****button.
Most of the stuff is going to be the same across Android devices, however.
Thanks for the help. HTC seems confusing... Lol

Absolutely. That was the first thing I did. To be sure, I have the nandroid backup stored on several hard drives.

Posting to say how amused I am by your name.
Oh err.. on topic: yes! Nandroids are good!
I know that. I've been flashing and modding Samsung phones for a few years and only one HTC. I had no idea what I was doing to that poor phone.
