I just recently switched back from the leaked Ice Cream Sandwich RUU by changing the main ver and uploaded the oldest ruu (1.02 etc) and was going to just update through OTA to the latest version of the htc Rezound. I the found out that when I tried to update it, recovery (amon ra recovery) was still present and it tried updating through that, which failed. Can anyone help me out with removing recovery?
in order to ruu, you need to install stock recovery which amonra recovery will be removed as well. download: http://db.tt/tw5m33ZG

i use cleanflash 1.0 for boot.img and recovery.img.
http://www.scottsroms.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=57
or use adb and flash using this command "fastboot flash recovery recovery_signed.img"
if you are using cleanflash 1.0, after downloading the stock recovery,
unzip then put the img file in the same folder as the tool the rename it to "recovery.img"
then use the tool and flash
make sure usb debugging is enabled, usb mode is on charging and htc sync on your computer is disabled before using the tool!!!!

There's a guide in the development section that can get you to switch your main ver to whatever number you want. I put it a 1.00.000.00 and then it automatically switched to the first main ver (when the htc rezound was officially released). Now I've got a problem because my phone won't read my sd card (even though it's working, i plugged it into the computer and it worked), it won't let me flash any RUUs in bootloader, every time i try to turn the phone on it goes straight to fastboot so I can't even access the phone, and where it should say locked or unlocked (in fastboot/bootloader) it has 3 lines that look like this:
***TAMPERED***
***RELOCKED***
***SECURITY WARNING***
Also, I was using the original stock rom for a couple of days before this happend, so that part was working fine. But Ive never experienced this before and this is my third or fourth time going through this exact same process.
Edit: I also forgot to mention that the recovery is now stock recovery again, as you could probably tell, it's relocked, I'm pretty sure it's unrooted, but I can't tell, and lastly, after multiple tires, I could not get the OTA update to work at all. I kept getting error/fail messages.
A couple of things. First you can't ruu back. Your hboot was updated. Second that TAMPERED message tells me that are not on the stock recovery, it only says that when a non stock recovery is installed. If you are just looking to get GB back on the phone, I made a guide in the general section. Search for "how to go back to GB from leaked ICS.

Do I have to do that if my phone's already on GB?
Now it won't let me get into recovery because it keeps trying to update the the software from OTA but that fails and then it gets stuck at phone with a red triangle infront/ontop of it.
Edit: I actually realized it was doing that because the recovery still wasn't there, so i went back to the command prompt and looked and saw that it said that flashing the recovery had failed. so then I went and got the newer amon ra recovery and tried flashing that, still said it failed and still wasn't there. What is going on with my phone?

Whenever I try to flash a ROM I always get "main version older". I'm on the stock, rooted gingerbread ROM right now with an unlocked bootloader and if I try to flash any ROM whether it's a gingerbread or ICS ROM I always get the same message when the phone reboots to the bootloader to flash the kernel.
What can I do about this?
After I first unlocked my phone I tried to install an ICS rom then I installed a gingerbread rom after and I never saw that message once. Then I started seeing it so I went back to stock to see if that would fix my issue but it hasn't.

It mostly mean your htc rezound is on a newer main version of software you going to need to downgrade by changing the number here a link to help you do this and take out the older message that come up http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1467099
So, theoretically, if I take it all the way back down to 1.00.000.0 I could be able to flash anything because whatever I flash will always be greater than the main version.

Well it works. Anyone have any idea how I keep getting stuck at the HTC screen when I flash some roms (ICS ones mostly). I've never made it past the HTC screen with CleanRom and now I'm on the new Bamf ICS 0.5 rom and I'm sitting here stuck again. The kernel flashed successfully in the bootloader so I'm not sure why I keep getting stuck.

...Gingerbread roms aren't working either. I have flashed 1 ICS rom and 2 Gingerbread roms in the past but for some reason now, I can't flash anything.
I'm wondering if flashing the stock RUU and relocking, then unlocking again and reflashing Amon Ra would fix the issue. After I originally unlocked was the only time I could ever successfully flash anything.
Don't see how locking and re-unlocking would make a difference.

I'm running out of options.
Before I begin, I've read through a lot of threads on different forums and have yet to find a solution (that's working for me.)
I could never get my device to S-OFF so simply dropped the task. Not in too big of a rush right now. That being said, I'd like to go back to GB for a bit just to try a few things out.
I never flashed the ICS firmware, therefor I've had to use the old firmware patches. So, I tried running the RUU for GB and it only encountered error after error and my phone stayed at the black HTC screen. Any ideas?
Phone works just fine, just rebooted while I was typing this post and went straight into my ROM.
Only way I found is S-off'd, I had to go back to GB after ICS since it came on the phone I bought and needed to return it. Everyone told me I had to S-Off then RUU
If s on make sure you relock bootloader, then you should be able to run the gb ruu for whichever version you were on.

Downgrading radios when s-on could very well hard brick your phone. I strongly recommend that you s-off first.

If you never ran an ics ruu you still were on gb firmware....so you can run a gb ruu. When you run the same ruu that's not downgrading....sheesh :rolleyes . And its probably the easiest way to get back to a working phone if you are lost and don't really know what you are doing.

Still only a soft brick. Would suggest trying the other of the two GB RUU .exe version packages if you only tried one of them, just a suggestion until someone else can help you and diagnose.

I'm getting a bootloader version error. An ICS RUU should fix this, right? Granted, I know that means I can't go back until I S-Off, but I'd rather that than have a soft bricked phone
I am in the same boat - S-ON. I flashed Scott's ICS Rooted Stock Rom, along with the GB Patch. I downloaded the PH98IMG.zip and HBOOT doesn't recognize it. Trying the exe may resolve this?
Issue resolved thanks to dsb in the IRC channel. For some reason, I thought I had to throw the unlock.bin on my SD card to unlock.
And to the guy above me, try pushing it through adb. Extract the ROM, find the boot.img, throw it into your ADB directory.
adb reboot bootloader
(make sure you're in fastboot USB)
fastboot flash boot boot.img

With the new leak out, I haven't. However, I can still help.
Make sure there is no P98IMG file on your SD card.
1. Download the mainver fix from this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=23169557&postcount=4
2. Drop GB ROM of your choice onto SD card.
3. Flash the fix in recovery and reboot into bootloader.
4. Relock your phone by going into adb and typing in fastboot oem lock
5. Run GB RUU of your choice.
6. Use the HTCDev unlock on your bootloader
7. Download a recovery and push it to your phone by typing in fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
8. Boot into recovery, flash ROM, enjoy.
Hi,
I have an unlocked Rezound that will boot to the hboot screen and fastboot one time and then I have no control over anything. I tether it to the computer but it does not find the device. If I try Fastboot or Recovery or any of the options, nothing happens.
Any ideas?

This happened to me when I failed to get S-OFF (I screwed up the wire trick terribly), and I was unable to recover. Once the battery died, the phone was done, since it needs software to use the charger. I was able to jury-rig my old DINC battery to try a few more times, but I ended up exchanging it, telling Verizon it just died and they accepted it as DOA. Of course I bricked it the same night FedEx delivered it so I was able to do a return w/out warranty issues being part of it.

Download that file. Rename it by removing the "TWRP-" in the file name and then place it on the root of your SD card. And reboot into hboot. If that does nothing I'll be shocked.
Hi guys. As the title says, I may have bricked my rezound. I had rooted my phone using Hasoon2000's All-In-One-Kit to root. After successfully rooting, I used Hasoon2000's S-Off Toolkit. That's where the problem occurred. I may not have read the directions closely enough, but now, I always get stuck at the JuopunutBear screen. This screen only has the icon image. There are no options or settings to choose from. I can still access bootloader and flash Amon Ra recovery. From there, I have tried restoring a Nand backup I had made before. But even after I restore the backup and reboot, I still end up at the JuopunutBear screen.
I hope that someone, anyone will be able to help me out. Thanks in advance.

if you've flashed a stock RUU, you need to relock as well. Go into fastboot and run "fastboot oem lock"
If that doesn't fix it (^what Shrike said ^), go to your sd card and delete the PH98IMG.zip file. Then after you re-lock, flash the RUU in recovery, not bootloader (although you may get taken there after it installs a new PHIMG file), just to be sure.

You didn't successfully s off. Try again later on now that you know the procedure to recovery.
But I will say this, keep it unlocked and on 2.25 hboot and 1.22 radios. With that setup you are near unbrickable and also have the OTA firmware.
Just takes you a couple extra steps to flash a rom.

Correct. Yes Jon. Only way to brick an s on is to pull power while flashing hboot or flash a bad hboot update.

I have been having the worst time trying to take my Rezound back to stock. I rooted it a long while ago and am now stuck. I was able to relock but still at s-on and I cant seem to find the right RUU exe file to load the system back to stock. Current info is as follows;
HBOOT-2.25.0000
RADIO-1.22.10.0421r/1.22.10.0424r
OpenDSP-v13.6.0.7611.00.0104
eMMC-boot
Image version 3.14.605.12
I am a complete noob so I will need as much simple directions as possible. I am desperate at this point since I cant seem to get it to reload the stock. Every time I use the RUU.exe files
RUU_VIGOR_ICS_35_S_VERIZON_WWE_3.14.605.12_Radio_RS_1.22.10.0424r_3622A_MR3_9K_release_270509_signed.exe
Found on androidfiles.org/ruu/?developer=Vigor or any of the other ones it fails. Fortunately I have not bricked the phone yet but I am running out of options since android police site has one but says not to use it : This will not work if you used the HTC Bootloader unlock tool. Your device must be fully stock with a locked bootloader or you must have S-Off (method).
Help please!!!
Try this link here http://shipped-roms.com/index.php?category=android&model=Vigor and download the PH98IMG_ICS_3.14.605.12.zip! Do not download any others. Rename it to PH98IMG.zip and flash in bootloader. It should allow you to flash it.
If I'm incorrect on something someone plz correct it

Okay I am kinda stupid at the moment since I have fried my brain trying everything. How do I flash it? and will that brick my phone since I am S-on?

After you rename it place it on the root directory of the SD card. Then power phone off. Then press volume down + power so it boots into bootloader. There it should ask if you want to update. Tell it yes. It won't brick you as its the same s/w you seem to be on. Worst case it won't flash.
Edit: make sure you verify the md5!

What message do you get when running the RUU, also what Rom were you running prior to relocking?

My rezound is semi-bricked currently and I am also looking to get back to stock form. I think the most current ROM that I had on it would be like Infection2.3. But I cannot seem to get past the boot animation and I believe the RUU needs to be actually booted up all the way? I will check the Hboot versions and such when I get home. (I tried a ph98img in the root but when it attempted to flash I got "HBoot version is older than expected, exiting")
Any thoughts?

Remember to flash a ph98img zip RUU, the bootloader must be relocked and internal storage will also be completely wiped. Backup the contents in recovery using usb mass storage mounts.

Sounds like all that needs done is a factory reset(wipe caches+data) and wipe system. Re-flash a Sense rom and fastboot flash the matching boot.img. Try my rom Viral OTA, just the data/system wipes prior to flashing and it willk get you back up to 100%. Rememer to reboot to bootloader if using TWRP.
