I have tried various ways to get my supercid to work and it doesnt. I give up. I just give up.
I put the PG58IMG on the root of the sd card and the bootloader tells me there is no image found.... WTF!
I am about to throw this phone against the wall.... (no I will not give it away, I will kill it) if someone doesn't explain to me why this is happening!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have obtained S-Off earlier this morning.... that was the easiest part of my day....... Tell me how putting supercid on my phone is the hardest part of my day???
When I type in "fastboot getvar cid" it shows me my default cid....
I am going to kill this thing soon....
Why do you need superCID anyway? You're already on TMobile =)

It's not 58 its 85 lol. N if you named the file PH85IMG.zip you gotta take off the .zip

Also, you are on a version of bootloader that falsely reports the cid as 0202 no matter what it actually is. More than likely you are supercid already.

Ok since I seem to be missing something.... I would need you guys to explain to me (please) what exactly I need.... What do I need to do to make my SCID to work.... I want to be able to write 11111111 so I could flash whatever I want........ I am kinda lost.... and I do not like feeling like a noob....
I am currently running:
S-OFF, Energy Rom (GB), HBoot 1.90.2005.
History:
I had the ICS leak, but took it off. (Does that affect my HBoot?)
Apps at my disposal:
Root Explorer, Rom Manager, 4EXT Recovery, and Titanium Backup.
Well SCID won't let you flash ANYTHING it will only let you flash other Carriers RUUs that also carry the Amaze/Ruby. It won't let you flash a GS2 Rom on your Amaze if that's what you're thinking. Being a Tmobile Customer, we are the only carriers with the ICS for the Amaze so its pointless for now. And Android RevolutionHD does not require SCID for Tmobile users because its based off the Tmobile RUU.
Once other carriers, that also carry the Amaze/Ruby, have an awesome Rom then SCID maybe needed.

In order to have a successful rooting / flashing experience.... you must read.... A LOT.... I hate reading.... But ever since I joined XDA I have done way too much reading... I paid 700 dollars for my phone.... There's no way I'd be stupid enough to not read and brick the hell out of my phone.... My PS3 was only 300 ..... my laptop was only 350.... and my monitor was about 360 and my ipod was about 250.... its the most expensive piece of equipment I own.....
I take care of all of my devices..... I cannot afford to brick my phone.... because once I do.... I'd have to go back to my stupid LG G2x.... and I can't have that!!!!!!!!!!
Plus I learn when I read....
It also says that I need to do a Super Wipe...... so now I gotta read a hell lot of threads and figure out what super wipe does.... and how to put it on my phone....

I see that you got your Queston answered in the supercid thread but this is also for those who posted in this thread.
Your problem is that you have ENG HBoot. You need JB Hboot (or is it JD?), which you can grab in the supercid thread. after you flash the hboot you can supercid. You can reflash ENG Hboot when finish.
I've experienced the same problem as you and this was my fix.

If you had the ICS leak already, might as well flash the latest leak (reported better connectivity than the first leak) and try to superCID with the SHP 1.93.0002 hboot. After you do superCID then go back to GB. It's an extra step but something you've already done before.
Regarding Super Wipe, you should be able to download the file from mike1986's tread under Downloads. All it does is wipe and formats data, system and cache in one swoop instead of you manually doing it yourself.

Once I finish my physics homework, I am going to get some scripts cooking and I think we can have roms install the boot images from recovery.

What I don't get is why the devs can't just agree en masse which mainver they're going to use, and then everyone uses that version.
Well they shouldn't use one higher than the RUUs we have so we can restore if necessary. I have had to RUU before because I corrupted my cache partition once.
But some devs used the ICS leak mainver and some people were idiots and installed the leak before it was ready and got their mainvers higher than what we have RUUs for.

That's one of the reasons I wait a day or so to flash a new ROM if it just getting released. I always wait to see what the problems are first.
I just check it first and replace the android-info as needed. I am still on the 1.x mainver because I am careful and I was one of the first to flash the ICS leaks

This will be great once you get it running.
I'm curious what the reason is that you want to remain on 1.x when the official update brought the phone to 2.x? I'm on 2.x but running a ROM from 1.x even though they just came out with an update for 2.x because I want to keep the red theme made for it.
Btw... the dsb kernel was installed in recovery, like the AnthraX one is. Flashed a zip in recovery that made the PHzip that flashed as an update. Is this different than that?
I haven't flashed the new radios and stuff.

It isn't that crazy or that dangerous. I have flashed my misc a few times when I was seeing if I could hex edit the CID to HTC__001 instead of VZW__001 which would have allowed HTC dev unlock before we got their blessing.
Hi there,
I've been using symbian for 2 years, did flashing and custom CFW and so on... Not a newbie in this. Actually just finished university in Europe and got a degree of Computer engineer and programmer.
Last week I bought an HTC Evo 3D, rly happy about it just want to use it to the max.
I want to root it for some games and apps but know know how and what ROM and ware to get it.
I have a 2 year warranty and I don't want to lose it.
I need information on rooting. How to backup stock ROM so I can restore it to keep my warranty just in case something happens. Which ROM to choose for my needs and how to do it.
Any other knowledgeable info would be great.
Spill me everything you know about this phone and for this phone.
Thank you for your time
NOTE: I live in Lithuania WiFi is not widely spread and free. 3G net is not an option, too expensive.
I use USB net on phone and sometimes WiFi at coffee shops or work.
We use SIM cards I think its GSM type not rly sure never cared.

If you had read the MANY guides on here, you would know that your hboot version determines what method used to root. ROMS are obviously found in the ROM (dev) section.

Yeah, I got the phone from a local Verizon employee the day it came out. It came in a white box. Pretty cool that it is S-Off. The plastic faceplate has a crack through it though, I think the quality control might have been skipped on these employee versions. I never dropped it, the crack just appeared.
Anyway back to Roms. I hope it is true that I can just flash a rooted rom. Anybody know for sure?
Is there a way to pull a copy something off of the phone to help with the ongoing s-off efforts?

The only reason I may switch back to stock is for the international functionality that they say is coming to this phone. I really need that.

what is your hboot?
is it an ENG hboot or is it the stock hboot_1.02.0000?
if ENG you could pull that it could be of use if/when s-off comes for this phone.
BUT it's really not a big deal as I already have a friend who does have the ENG hboot for this phone so he will be giving me it, just wondering if you have it as well, and if they would be the same.

It might block you from using fastboot commands without a patched hboot. However, I would sacrifice those to keep ***LOCKED*** status.
Hi,
I have factory unlocked htc amaze, s-on. i've unlocked its bootloader and uses 4EXT recovery. i had GB before and never had ICS on it.
I flashed CM10 rom and for some reason it's stuck on boot loop and i can't get it out of it. i tried to reflash it couple of times but nothing helps.
it comes up and if i'm not touching anything (and it's on lock screen stat) it can last and not reboot. however, when i open the lock screen in about 5 sec it reboots itslef.
anyone has an idea what could be the issue and how to resolve it?
If you scroll down in Q&A you find answers. But it looks to me you have to restore from back up relock & flash an ruu to whatever flag ship your phone is on then ota ics then reunlock the phone. Use the search button trust me it helps alot.
thanks, I will.
I've just tried putting the official ICS , rename it PH85IMG.zip and let the phone do the work. i hope this will resolve the issue.
but should i re-lock the bootloader for it to work?

Hi,
I have factory unlocked htc amaze, s-on. i've unlocked its bootloader and uses 4EXT recovery. i had GB before and never had ICS on it.
I flashed CM10 rom and for some reason it's stuck on boot loop and i can't get it out of it. i tried to reflash it couple of times but nothing helps.
it comes up and if i'm not touching anything (and it's on lock screen stat) it can last and not reboot. however, when i open the lock screen in about 5 sec it reboots itslef.
anyone has an idea what could be the issue and how to resolve it?

Lol for some reason it's stuck on boot loop. The reason was u didnt read.
Put the ph85img.zip on root of SD card. RELOCK BOOTLOADER. This should bring u back to a relocked bootloader. Flash the ph85img.zip from bootloader and u will be fine. Next time read thoroughly so your first 2 posts on XDA aren't as embarrassing like the guy above me said... There r threads everywhere about this

indeed i wasn't reading thoroughly and thanks a lot for your help however, i did tried what you said and it says model id is incorrect and the update failed. what could be the reason? is the file itself incorrect? I downloaded the file version for T-Mobile as i don't know which carrier is this. i bought the phone in US but not from one of the carriers and it doesn't have any brand on it.
do you think i should try a different ics version?

It won't flash because the ruu checks your CID and if your cid isn't in that carriers ruu then it won't let it work. I wonder if you open the ph85img.zip on your computer and added your cid to it if it would work. Not saying to do that cuz idk if it will or not lol. Try all the other ruu and see if any woork
You will most likely have to s-off and then superCID before u will be able to flash any of the ruu's, but start off by finding out what your CID is by downloading the file I attached and extract that zip on your computer. Now boot your phone into bootloader, then select fastboot.. now connect phone via USB to computer and then open the cid.bat file inside the CID folder. Once its done running, a file should appear in the CID folder called cidnumber.log or somethin like that. Post here what it says

i used the file your attached, and the log file says: "cid: HTC__044"

be sure to snoop around the android development area before asking. I think there's a few different links up. And you can always go to Cyanogen's website. they usually have the original RUU and proper instructions on how to do all of it.

I Could Only find it on XDA Chinas site. I don't believe we have ever had that RUU here.
http://translate.google.com/translate?&sl=auto&tl=en&u=http://bbs.xda.cn/thread-11187834-1-1.html
U gotta register to download it, and be careful since its on a non English website and u have to depend on google translate. Use it at your own risk. Also I tried register to get the download link and I couldnt get it to work.
If I were you, I would just s-off your phone then super CID it and flash the tmo ruu or any other 1. Simple no prob

What I would do , not forcing you to do this, is to S-Off and change my CID to Super. Then flash a different carrieres ICS RUU. That's probably an easier way to get up to ICS speed.

Why were you trying to avoid it? It's actually pretty easy, and in the end will make other things easier too. Just make sure you read everything thoroughly, and if you aren't sure about something ask BEFORE you do it

No Matter what i do i cannot even get to register.
Please Help.
I thought I would start a thread to help people that sent there DNA out to get JTAG s-off and now are trying to flash a custom Rom.
If anybody want to put there experience on here so people know the steps and the correct way to handle the bootloader.
I think it would be helpful. I am still waiting for mine to come back from mobiletechvideos so it would be helpful for me to.
Thanks to anyone who contributes.
I'm pretty sure this should be in general. Just sayin.

Yeah you're right. It's a good thread though. I'm thinking Q&A section would probably be good because of the other stuff in the same section.

s-off dna
The purpose of the forum is to get the right info I've seen conflicting points on whether or not you still need to unlock the bootloader after s-off.
My understanding was that once your s-off you don't need to unlock because it bypasses the bootloader security checks. I am probably wring but I was hoping to get a clarified answer with this forum what do think choochoo

You shouldn't have to all you really need to do is flash the ENG Hboot and flash a recovery and then flash a Rom most have root already and your good to go. If you wanna use the stock hboot and only want su permission then you do need to unlock hboot it to be able to flash a recovery and superuser or supersu.

Thank you for the clarification. That's what I thought but there are people are posting that u need to downgrade via ruu and then use the beups exploit to supercid and then htcdev unlock and I was calling bullswack on that. Lol thanks again

The eng hboot has more functions available so there is a better chance of messing up the phone. Most people stick with the stock hboot since that's good enough for most.

I agree with that only if your not familiar with using the ENG Hboot, if you are then it's the better choice.

Why would you try to so your device after you have s-offed it
Where do I find the non-eng hboot? I'm paranoid that if I ever need to s-on my phone I'll further I have eng h-boot and brick it so I kind of want to go back.

Just got my phone back from the JTAG service and this was the exact procedure. Flashed the ENG boot and then flashed recovery. Bootloader still says 'LOCKED' but allowed me to flash.
I've JTAGG'd 18 DNA devices so far on the OTA update (I do this on the downlow due to specific "developer" who can't understand how to get all phones to take the RIFF JTAG flash software.
Flash ENG Hboot if you want the options available to it, though not mandatory. Install a root program (SuperSU is my recommendation), then flash a recovery.
Immediately backup your current setup, then go for any ROM you see fit. Profit.
