having major issue - HTC Rezound

So i plugged in my phone to my pc, and all of a sudden it rebooted into the bootloader... re locked itself, and now only reboots into the bootloader?! i dunno what happened or how it got this way...but now I can't do anything!

What was the last thing you did to your phone before that? Do you have a PHzip file on your ext sd card?
Not sure how it would relock... can you get into fastboot and try to unlock again? Try doing a battery pull first.

i can get into fastboot... i try to fastboot oem unlock and it doesn't work...and it doesn't reconize my phone when i adb devices

Oh, that's not the unlock command. Try this (assuming you still have the Unlock_code.bin file, otherwise you have to go through the process of getting a token again):
fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin
adb is just for when you're booted into the phone. You can type:
fastboot devices
So... it really says Relocked at the top in pink? Does it also say Security Warning?

yeah although the command u gave me for the unlock worked...but still just boots into bootloader//
do you know the command to push a ROM or Recovery img via fastboot?

Recovery:
fastboot flash recovery nameofrecoveryfile.img
And you're sure you don't have a PHzip file on your sd card? That will cause the phone to boot to bootloader.

You should only have used the one. It seems others have been able to correct the issue by simply reformatting the card with the phone, not via a USB connection to a computer.

Pull your battery.. reinsert and hold volume down and the power button. Make sure phone is plugged in or replug in phone if you took it off to reboot. Should be in Hboot now, press power to select fastboot if it is white lettering over blue background. If it is red background your already in fastboot and if connected should say fastbootusb.
1. open a copy of the rom your on either with 7 zip or since your not adding anything to it unzip it .
2. find the folder that says kernel, now you will either see a PH98IMG.zip or you will see a file that his white with a silver circle called boot. That is the raw boot.img. If it is the ph zip simply unzip it and you will see the boot.img.
3. Now , remove the boot.img and place it in the same folder your fastboot is located , generally the place you unlocked with.
4. Then, bring up a command prompt the same way you did to unlock. change directory if needed by cd c:\thenthenameofthefoldrecontainingfastboot.
5. Simply type fastboot boot boot.img
6. you will see sending " size of img".. receiving "size of img ", then writing .. and it will end and tell you how many seconds it took.
Now, simply use the reboot selection from bootloader or with the command prompt type abd reboot and your phone should reboot and you will be back on your rom.
The reason you keep booting to the jBear screen is because the jBear process replaced your KERNEL. You need to find the kernel img file for YOUR operating system or ROM. If you are on GB, find a GB kernel. If on the ICS Leak, you need to find the ICS Leak kernel. If on a ROM, get that ROM's kernel file.
Then the commands on the PC are:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot reboot
Another option is to use Hansoon's Rezound All-in-one-kit to flash the stock kernel for you.

no offense, but if you honestly cannot at least search to figure out how to do a fastboot command as simple as fastboot flash, then you should stay clear of s-off...

Looks like you may be S-off. Try downloading a stock GB Ruu, renaming to ph98img and put it on the root of your sd card. Reboot and hboot should install it. It will take a while and a reboot once before finishing.

You should be able to do a fastboot push.
What would work better would be to fastboot flash Amon-Ra, then you can mount the SD as mass storage.

I'm not big on ADB or Fastboot so I can't tell you how using those tools. However, when I needed to recover after several failed s-off attempts, I used this all in one tool and just selected Flash AmonRa recovery.
Then I would boot into recovery, AmonRa has an option to toggle USB to SD card, so then you could copy whatever from your computer to the SD card.

Thank you everyone that helped
You can also do the PH98IMG.zip thing this way:
1) Put PH98IMG.zip in fastboot folder
2) fastboot oem rebootRUU
3) fastboot flash zip PH98IMG.zip
4) Wait a long time, when the prompt returns control to you it is done
5) fastboot reboot
6) Let it fire up and all that jazz
7) Then do "fastboot writesecureflag 3" and you will be 100% stock

Okay I downloaded a stock signed RUU renamed it and put it on the root of my sdcard, when I rebooted the phone the phone recognized and I applied the update. It booted up perfectly and the phone is back on stock GB, I dont see where to writesecureflag though, did I have to do that before I let the phone boot all the way into the OS for the first time? Under the fastboot menu I see no option to writesecureflag, do I need to reflash the stock RUU and start again?

There are 4 ways to do it:
Unplug the usb and plug it back again.
Go to the Settings -> Applications -> Development of your device and uncheck the USB debugging mode and then check it again back!

You will need to be in fastboot. Pull the battery, then reboot holding volume down.
*Note: make sure there is no PH98IMG.zip on your SD card
Once in hboot, select fastboot. Then connect to your PC.
In your command prompt/adb window, type 'fastboot devices' to make sure your PC reads the phone.
Then type 'fastboot oem writesecureflag 3' and you'll be S-On.

Stuck in bootloop and need help fast

Ok so
Rooted

was running Mean-rom 4.4
Then tried to install the new apk fix for ringtones

Phone rebooted then then continues to be stuck in boot loop.
What I have tried:
Factory reset in bootloader
clear storage in bootloader
reinstall TWRP to get in recovery as if I choose recover in bootloader it just boot loops.
Tried to install the RUU but it can not connect during boot loops and errors out.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance

Those are fastboot commands, you use the terminal
fastboot wipe recovery

You should be able to boot into recovery afterwards
What terminal? I'm a bit lost here
Do you have adb tools or Android SDK?
C:\android-sdk-windows
Open cmd prompt by opening SDK folder and then hold shift and right click, it will say open cmd prompt or something similar I don't recall if adb is in separate folder but I don't think so. From there you can plug in the phone in fastboot and type fastboot devices, it will tell you if you are connected or not. Download twrp and place it in the same folder. Then you can use the commands I listed earlier

Now that I am in fasboot usb on the bootloader the RUU can connect to phone via USB.
If I just flashed that and started all over would that work and do I need to unroot and relock before doing the RUU?
Still not having any luck on terminal so far.

That's because I haven't used wipe in fastboot in quite a while, I'm sure I'm just confused on wipe and erase but you shouldn't need it, the first command should be fastboot erase recovery but like I said you shouldn't really have to, it's just like formatting before flashing the recovery, just fastboot flash recovery openrecovery.img or what ever the name is for the twrp file

Thanks recovery just loops, could never get in.
Ok this is where I am at (see OP)
We tried flashing TWRP and original recovery via ADB
We tried running RUU
I'm still stuck in a boot loop....
I am having a similar problem stuck in bootloader. I relocked to go to the new firmware and now am stuck in the bootloader. I can access adb but can't access recovery. I am now relocked. Can I unlock again with a fastboot command?
If you unlocked manually, HTC sends the unlock code code just use fastboot to flash, if you used regawmod, just run it again. I don't know if regawmod will recognize the phone in boot loader though

Stuck at 4G LTE screen after zip update

I was on 4.0.3 and I flashed the zip through AromRa recovery.
Now, when booting up, its stuck at the 4G screen.
The update was the OTA update released to update radios to Global. THIS
It didn't gave any error at all, it said "Reboot to complete installation or update". But when I clicked the reboot option, I saw a line saying something like "Can't write....." then the screen went off and it rebooted. This line was not there, or atleast not visible before I clicked the reboot option.
I am new to rezound and android, so please let me know what I can do. I wasn't able to get a nandroid backup before doing this, had no ext. SD card.
All I did before flashing the zip was flashing the custom recovery. Nothing else. No SU or anything else.
Can I RUU 4.0.3 to fix this problem?
Yes you need to ruu to get it back. I'm assuming your s on. You need to be s off in order to flash radios by themselves.

Yes, that's the latest global RUU.
You need to relock to run it:
fastboot oem lock
Put it on your sd card and it should do it's thing when you reboot. Run it a couple times and make sure it's finished so it will get all the system files. I believe it reboots you once it's done.
Then you can unlock again, flash recovery and root. If you have trouble rooting again search this forum for "super su" and you'll find a version you can flash to gain root.

I downloaded the same RUU from a different source and flashed it. But the same failed remote not allowed error.
1 question.
In adb, do I need to type the command fastboot flash zip PH98IMG.zip in the hboot (with otions fastboot, recovery, clear storage, simlock, image crc) or after selecting the fastboot option at the hboot screen?
I am asking because nothing happens when I put the command while on the hboot screen and I get the remote error when commanded from the fastboot screen.

You have to fastboot oem rebootRUU first

You don't flash this in fastboot since it's a zip file.
EDIT: Looks like you can flash in fastboot as mentioned in the above post. Cool, I like that. I would flash it twice as I've read several times that you need to to make sure it gets all the system files.
If htat doesn't work for whatever reason, just put it on the sd card of your phone, detach your phone from your pc and reboot. hboot should find it (it looks for the PH98IMG.zip file) and flash it. Flash it twice to be sure it gets all the system files.
When it's done and you're rebooted use a file explorer and delete the PH98IMG file so it doesn't flash again on the next reboot.

Things kinda went sideways when I tried flashing a MOD without making a backup. I know what you're thinking, you can make fun of me all you want lol.
I'm only writing this post after having spent hours reading other posts. I'm kind of confused at this point, what is the easiest way to get my phone working again.
At the moment, I don't have a working ROM installed and I don't have access to my clockworkmod custom recovery. I only have Fastboot to work with. My understanding is that I have the following options:
Somehow Unlock my RELOCKED bootloader and flash a custom ROM
Find the original Rogers Stock ROM for my phone
I'm not sure how to go about doing the first option. And I don't know where I can find the Stock ROM for my phone.
If you have any info you can shed my way, I'd really appreciate it! And if there are similar posts already existing, I apologize for making a new one. I just didn't find anything that speaks to my exact problem out there.
UPDATE: I figured it out! Thank God!! I just had to "fastboot oem rebootRUU" then unlock bootloader, then install custom recover, then custom ROM.

Things kinda went sideways when I tried flashing a MOD without making a backup. I know what you're thinking, you can make fun of me all you want lol.
I'm only writing this post after having spent hours reading other posts. I'm kind of confused at this point, what is the easiest way to get my phone working again.

Hi shanewilliamson,
1. Reboot your phone to fastboot mode
2. Connect to PC (assuming you have the fastboot kit on your PC)
3. On the CMD window, type "fastboot oem rebootRUU" and hit Enter.
4. Your phone will ask you if you want to unlock the bootloader. Choose YES
5. Reboot back into fastboot mode. Download your favorite Recovery from the internet, i.e. Clockworkmod or TWRP.
6. Flash Recovery into your phone (tons of tutorials out there on how do this)
7. Reboot your phone into Recovery.
8. Flash your favorite ROM
Hope this helps!

Oh... you're good then, you don't need "fastboot oem rebootRUU".
Do you have a custom recovery installed too? TWRP or Clockworkmod?

Did you do this step ?
Download Canadian 1.55 HBOOT recovery: http://goo.gl/2Kntxz
Make sure you're in the bootloader go into fastboot and make sure the downloaded image is in the same folder as your fastboot.
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
Go into bootloader and then choose Factory Reset - let that finish running <<< Important!
Phone will go out and start bootlooping. Now power off and go back to bootloader mode:
Go into fastboot
fastboot flash recovery <custom recovery>.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
Now you can go into custom recovery and you should be good to go now.

Seems hopeless
your only hope is someone can rebuild your partitions but with s-on it won't be easy
I'm in the same exact position as the original poster. However, when I'm in the bootloader and connected to my PC. typing
fastboot oem rebootRUU

puts the phone into a black screen with a silver HTC logo. Nothing happens afterwards. Any help is appreciated. My end goal is to get this phone back to stock AT&T rom (4.4.2) with Sense 6)
My phone is
Tampered
Relocked
S-On
HBoot 1.44
