Alright guys, I've searched and searched and I think I have it all down, just want to lay out my steps and get verification.
I'm on T-Mo ICS, not from OTA, flashed myself
Root
S-Off
4-Ext
I'm sending my phone in and need to go back to stock. I think I would prefer to go back to GB so it's just like from factory with no OTA.
- Download the Stock GB RUU from here - HTC Ruby/Amaze 4G Stock ROMs
- The RUU I want is - PH85IMG_Ruby_TMOUS_1.43.531.3_Radio_1.08.550L.19DC _30.66.550L.08D_release_228638_signed
- Following These Directions I connect via ADB and fastboot oem lock This will show it as Re-Locked, correct?
- Reboot
- Flash the stock RUU I got by placing it in the root of my external sd card and renaming it PH85IMG.zip and rebooting to bootloader. Which is Volume Down + Power? Can someone verify that?
- Then I set the security lock by doing "fastboot oem writesecureflag 3" - This will change the bootloader to show locked, not re-locked, correct? I thought you had to have root to ADB?
At that point I'm back as if I took the phone out of the box for the first time? 4ext will be replaced with Stock Recovery? Thanks in advance. Like I said, I've searched, but there are many conflicting reports. :good:

In order to flash the factory RUU you need to be either locked or relocked. Then when you flash the factory RUU it should overwrite your hboot which will reset from "relocked" to "locked" then the writesecureflasg function will turn S-ON and you'll be factory.

If you're s-off you don't need to lock or relock to flash a stock ruu.

Guess that does make sense, huh?
But everything looks OK then?
Update - Downloaded and renamed the RUU, rebooted into recovery and installed everything. Bootloader shows locked and I went ahead and did the ICS Update. Everything is back to factory and I'm ready to send it back.

Rick. Like you, I want to bring my T-Mobile HTC Amaze back to stock so that I can upgrade to ICS. The phone was bought on eBay with GB and a custom rom. I'd like to follow your steps but it had a lot of question marks and/or needed confirmation. Will you post exactly what you did?
Your steps seems a lot easier than what I've been researching. Is it really that simple? It makes sense. Everyone else uses hasoon2000 toolkit. Thanks for your time!

You don't need to go back to stock you just need to download the factory ics ruu or a rom that stock like. The hasoon toolkit is more of a guide to help you with the process try to read it an maybe you can rom your cell with a better one!

Thanks for your reply. That makes sense, too. Plus, it'll save me a step. I'm new to Android and got a lot to learn. With the help of xda-developers, I've learned a lot these past three weeks.
From what I've been reading, it's apparent that I need to have S-off before I do any flashing. Like I mentioned, I bought the phone with a custom rom. I'm guessing if it has a custom rom, then it was S-off at one time. If so, I should be able to S-off easily. Since I didn't flash the phone, I'm not sure what program is installed. Your knowledge and experience will be greatly appreciated if you can tell me if I'm able to S-off easily and how. Whenever I go into HBOOT I see the following:
***UNLOCKED***
RUBY PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-1.90.0008
eMMC-boot
FASTBOOT

<vol Down> to next item

BOOTLOADER
REBOOT
REBOOT BOOTLOADER
POWER DOWN
so i went to switch out my battery and when i turned the phone back on it vibrated and displayed the white htc screen, then went black for a second and then stays on the white htc screen forever! Im a total noob when it comes to all the technical stuff about RUU's Kernels Roms and whatnot. I can get to bootloader, but i tried to do factory reset and it showed a green circle with a loading bar but then it changed into a red triangle with an exclamation. I tried flashing amon ra recovery but it doesnt work, although TWRP works. While in TWRP though, whenever i try to flash a zip file, it fails and says something like E:failed to mount /cache E:failed to mount /system E:failed to mount /data. Please help me i need this phone working to help me at my job. If someone can walk me through what i need to do i would REALLLYYYY appreciate it. Like i said though, i am a noob so i need realy stupified instructions lol. Thanks

First you should go to shipped-roms.com and download the vigor ics ruu.exe, the rezound downloads there are under vigor . Plug your phone into your computer and from hboot highlight fastboot press power and run the .exe file from your computer and follow the on screen instructions, this will return your phone to full stock ics. Make sure you download the vigor ics ruu.exe as the GB ruu will not work with s-on.
You can also download this: http://www.androidpolice.com/2012/0...ull-ruu-build-4-03-605-2-for-the-htc-rezound/ it's the latest ruu it'll update your hboot, stock recovery, rom, and radios, to latest stock. Just download, rename the zip file to PH98IMG (don't include .zip it is a zip file it'll add it on its own in hboot) put it on your sd card, not in a folder just on. Put it back in your phone and boot to bootloader and runn the update, when it powers off. Run it again. (As it has to update the hboot to 2.27 first)Then you'll be on the stock latest. Then root and Rom from there. Of you need help pm me for my gtalk and I could walk you thru it..

Same exact problem. Installing zip now, god i hope this works!!
So my screen is the exact same, i tried to flash a kernal for not only wrong phone but wrong carrier too. Anyways no OS, when i try to flash either of the ways you have explained they both dont work. When i put it on the sd card as PH98IMG it looks like it loads it in the upper right then thats it. regular bootload screen after that nothing happens. try to load it by opening the application after im plugged in as fasboot usb and the program says Install script setup launcher has stopped working. I have been able to flash liquids rom and looks as if it is booting but waited 24 min and nothing happpend just stayed on boot screen. So im just trying to get back to RUU then work from there.

You need to extract the boot.IMG from liquid Rom and rename it ph98img and put that on your sd card or in the folder with adb and fastboot flash it using fastboot flash boot boot.img

Still cant get my computer to talk to my phone when in fastboot usb i cant get any devices when i do "adb devices" cmd.
It says devices listed below but no devices.
Also im still stuck on TWRP 2.2 and I cant my 2.6 to flash in recovery. - Still troubleshooting this and might get it in a bit.

ooooh older stuff ick lol...do you have your htc sync drivers installed....what os are you on? are you s-on? what hboot you on? you need to be wiping before rom install and not after....are your issues pertaining to random reboots?

Yes i did reinstall my HTC Sync drivers, I have been wipining factory reset, cache, system, dalvick cache before i flash a new rom. I am S-On. Havent really determined a reason to go s-off yet, i am messing up my phone good enough with this let alone a paperclip. no problem with random reboots. I finally decided to go to a custom rom bc i was sick of my phone rebooting for OTA updates then being late for work. So the 3 roms i have now tried are Liquid smooth which i liked but i couldnt get mms messages to show up on phone. Also it wouldnt change from silent to a beep for text message notifications. i could select it but it would stay as silent. So.... I flashed ViperRezROm which i just didnt like the look and theme. So i finally flashed Cyanogen ROM and come to find out its the same kernal as Liquid smooth so it looks the same and I like that but I still cant change the notification from silent to a beep for text messages. So i never know when i get a text.
Still working on trying to flash a newer version of TWRP.
Then this time flashing I tried to titanium backup and went to load my backup and it cant find it.... WTF
UGH... Learning so much with this stuff. just taking alot of patience.
Thanks again for yalls support, I love this forum.
Mike
BTW just to note...if your bootloader is locked fastboot flash methods will not work 90 percent of the time...if you flashed liquid 3.0 that's more than likely your problem with mms as that is a beta...but on more recent 4.3 builds mms is fixed...and no its not the same kernel...just similar source code...liquid 2.9 does not have this mms issue...any random reboots on 4.2 are caused by min frequency not set right at 384 mhz and using amon ra to flash or not doing a proper clean flash....I do recommend s-off as it will make life much easier for you for modding things or flashing custom zips and for future flashing back to full stock if needed as its not possible while s-on...you can always pm me for help as I've yet to run into an error I can't fix unless posted in op caused by source

There is a few good reasons to S-Off.
1.No need to fastboot flash kernels
2.can RUU if needed
3.can flash recovery updates (cwm, twrp) as ph98img zips
4. Can keep bootloader ***locked***
5. No more ***tampered*** tag after you RUU
Scenario: you are out and about (or a computer isn't handy) somehow you are in an infinite bootloop. You nandroid restore. But it is something on boot partition. Only way to fix this while S-On is fastboot flashing a boot.img, but if you were S-Off, you would have restored the boot image from the nandroid.
Edit: added 5th reason

I finally went S-OFF to help another user get step by step to restore to fully locked and stock ruu. I decided to leave it S-OFF. It's so nice to be able to just load a rom and not have to do anything else (other than wiping). It makes changing/upgrading rom's a breeze.
I highly recommend it. It seems scary, but once you have done it once, you will not go back.
But be warned, never go back to S-ON on a non-HTC hboot... you will hard brick your device. That is the only real threat I've heard about... if you never go back to S-ON, then you have absolutely nothing to worry about. Just about any error can be fixed except for going s-on on a non-ruu hboot.
Thanks

SYSTEM INFO > I'll only type all that up if I have to...
IMAGE CRC > Calculates some things, and stops.
It responds if I have a PG05IMG file, but none of the ones I have seem to work, and all the guides I've looked at so far give me links to Megaupload.
At this point, I don't care if I have to go clear back to unrooted stock. I can probably figure out how to get back to Cyanogenmod 7.1 from there if I have to. Most of my stuff is backed up on my SD card anyways; the beauty of Androids... Two years back I could have probably figured all this out, but it's been a while.
So... Help, guys?

Luckily you're on an older hboot. All you'll need to do is find the ICS OTA RUU .zip file and flash that through hboot. You'll lose root, but will be able to boot into stock and can then follow the downgrade procedure to get root again.

As I suspected, but that leads back to one of my problems: Where do I find the files? Everything leads to a shut down site, Megaupload.

Oh, I forgot about the 4.0 for Thunderbolt... I never upgraded, actually. I believe I was running 2.3.7, or 2.3.4 somewhere around there.... At this point, I just want it to -work-. I did nothing to cause it (no flashing or anything for months) and this was just out of the blue. I'm smart enough that I don't use a unstable modded phone for business, but it is part of my lifestyle, and I miss it!

UPDATE:I followed http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1310014 and got the bootloader to 1.05.000, LOCKED. I flashed the first IMG just fine, and it went through, no errors at all; I'm still bootlooping, but now in a locked bootloader.
At this point, I need to find a stock ROM for Thunderbolt, and flash it with that. Not sure where to get one, or to even be sure of what filename I'm looking for.
Also, my Radio is now 1.49.00.0406w_1. Is this correct still?
Anyone?
Hey, just to let people know, be wary of flashing the firmware from the M7 Sense 6 update from T-Mobile, I pulled it from the OTA and it flashed successfully in RUU mode, but now im stuck in the dreaded QHSUSB_DLOAD mode, trying to figure a way to get a replacement, but just letting people know to be careful...

Please provide more details;
Do you have a T-Mobile device? --Did you change your CID?
What ROM?
What recovery?
Bootloader unlocked? S-Off?
What hboot did you have before flashing (stock? custom?)
How exactly did you pull the firmware?
These details would be very helpful.

People had a similar problem and a few were able to get back into hboot by plugging the phone to computer and persistently pressing power and volume down and/or volume up in different combinations. If you can get back to the boot loader flash a know working firmware. It's worth a shot... Here are some relevant comments from that thread...

That right there is what bricked your phone. I honestly don't know why people care so much about the red message on boot to flash a modded Hboot. Most devs on the One international forum are starting to pull of their modded Hboots as people usually don't know flashing a modded one can brick phones on future updates or so.
I haven't manually flashed just firmware. I am s-off with supercid. To get most current I loaded the last tmous ruu then let it go through all updates until it was at the latest sense 6, then reloaded twrp and my latest nandroid.

I have been looking to update to the latest firmware on my tmobile htc one, but i also have a custom hboot that i got from here " http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2497712 " so im holding off on flashing the newest firmware, because it will probably brick my phone. But what i am wondering is does anyone know where i can just fine the 1.44 tmobile hboot that i was currently on?? so that i dont have to flash the stock RUU and start all back over from scratch ?? I could just flash back to the 1.44 stock hboot and then upgrade to the newest firmware without bricking my phone ??

Which RUU.exe are you attempting to run? If it is this one: T-Mobile HTC One 4.3 3.24.531.3 RUU then your hboot is too high. I would suggest trying this one: T-Mobile USA | 4.4.2 | Sense 6 | 5.14.531.11. Also, since you are S-ON the bootloader needs to be locked/relocked for you to run a RUU. You can lock it in bootloader/FASTBOOT USB with this command: fastboot oem lock
If Viper is running on your One without an issue then you have an operating ROM and the missing OS is due to the custom recovery you used. If you are using TWRP, I would recommend TWRP 2.6.3.3 or TWRP 2.6.3.4 or TWRP 2.7.1.2! The last one has some changes built in that help eliminate the issue of a blank OS.

Check out this post for the TWRP nandroid, firmware and stock recovery for your phone. You will need to unlock your bootloader to flash the recovery or TWRP. If you decide to flash the firmware your bootloader should remain locked. In fact, I would flash the firmware first, then install TWRP to install the nandroid.

Can you connect the phone to a computer and is it recognized?
If yes, then I would recommend flashing the firmware. It contains hboot and you may have an issue with hboot.
Here is the procedure for flashing the firmware. If your phone is already in bootloader/FASTBOOT USB you can skip the first line.
Code:
[B][I]adb reboot bootloader[/I][/B]
After that, type:
Code:
[B][I]fastboot oem rebootRUU [/I][/B]
NOTE: You should see a silver HTC logo come up on your phone after executing this command.
NOTE: if this command freezes, just disconnect the USB cable and hold the power and volume down buttons until the device reboots. Then, repeat the steps above again.
Finally:
Code:
[B][I]fastboot flash zip firmware.zip[/I][/B]
Repeat the same command: IMPORTANT
Code:
[B][I]fastboot flash zip firmware.zip[/I][/B]
NOTE: The green bar on the phone may not go to 100% of the bar ... but If you see completed on your computer command window, wait for a few seconds and move on.
Last Step:
Code:
[B][I]fastboot reboot[/I][/B]

Update: I have the stock.img and need the stock zip file... please help that is all i need. i tried the stock RUU but for some reason my computer will not run the application and i don't know any other way to fix my phone other than adding the stock zip file to my phones sd card and installing it thru recovery.
Update: I fix my computer problem with the RUU not starting, it starts now and runs all the way thru then says it's the wrong one. I got the at&t ruu off the htc site.
UPDATE: I got my phone off of ebay, heres what the item was listed under.
SR HTC Desire 610 8GB Black AT&T Unlocked Any GSM 4G LTE Android Smartphone
Model: Desire 610
Bundled Items: 4G LTE May not be compatible with T-Mobile, Doesn't work with Verizon or Sprint
Contract: Without Contract
Lock Status: Network Unlocked
Operating System: Android
Unlock Status: Carrier Unlocked
Color: Black
SO... it's a AT&T Unlocked GSM phone? so what RUU do i need to use?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I don't know exactly what all you need but here goes nothing.
I unlocked and rooted my phone a few nights ago using, http://forum.xda-developers.com/desire-610/general/info-htcdev-unlock-root-t2844323
also had TWRP recovery installed.
Yesterday i was playing around in recovery mode trying to clean up my phone and restore it to factory settings. I accidentally deleted my system.. and when i try go to reboot it says No OS Installed! Are you sure you wish to reboot?
So i rebooted to fastboot and clicked power down.. and when i try to reboot it, it gets stuck on the HTC start up screen untill my phone dies or i go thru all the trouble to take the battery out.
So i deleted the OS System, and can't boot my phone up. I can get to recovery and fastboot just fine tho.
Bigger problem is, before this happened i had to Factory Restore my computer, so i no longer have any of the files i had to download to unlock and root my phone.
Anyone know what i need to do to be able to use my phone again? I'd really rather not have to go back stock ROM but if it's the only choice i will.
Please help me fix this, I can't go without my phone and I really can't afford a new one right now.
Thank you...

Try to reboot recovery
Install CM11 or stock ATT ROM from xda.
Move it to device.
Flash in recovery!
If your computer won't detect the 610, put it on USB OTG and connect to phone and flash.
Good luck

Well, looking at your 1st post(see exert pasted in above) you have somehow re-locked your bootloader. So the first thing you will have to do is go back through your emails and find the unlock_code.bin file that htcdev emailed you when you first unlocked it and use wndroid or fastboot to to unlock your bootloader again with that code. Recovery won't let you flash back anything while the bootloader is locked.

Every tutorial i have tried has said to relock bootloader before using the ruu. oh btw i have fixed the ruu not opening problem but it ran all the way thru then said it was the wrong one. I don't understand, my desire is at&t and i got the at&t ruu from the htc page.
Do i need to go s-off?

Since you somehow relocked bootloader, unlock it using windroid.
Then transfer cm11 or stock ATT ROM and flash in recovery

Just use windroid. First unzip the file I attached. Connect phone to PC. Start windroid. At top of windroid select COMMANDS. FLASH. FLASH RECOVERY. It will open an explorer window, just navigate to where you unzipped the file I sent you and select it. It will then flash the recovery. Once finished reboot to recovery.
Good day sorry to bother you again i tried to do that but now i cant enter recovery mode twrp, i click there but only goes to htc logo for a sec then goes back to fast boot
