Ok, I was trying to flash the newest ICS leak and being the newb I am, its borked.
Right now I have an unlocked bootloader with H-Boot 2.11.0000
I have a blank SD card and I just need to know what files to copy to it and what steps to get back to stock or possibly getting the 5/8 ROM leak installed
I'm assuming your s-on still, follow the directions in the OP to install.
Installation for S-ON Devices on Gingerbread firmware
* Copy ROM to SD Card AND PH98IMG.zip AND GB Firmware Patch to ROOT of SD Card
* Reboot to recovery
* wipe data / Factory Reset
* Flash ROM
* Flash GB Fimrware Patch
* Use Developer Menu to reboot to bootloader and flash the boot.img file in the PH98IMG.zip
* Reboot
* Profit!
How exactly do you FLASH the rom without renaming it?

I can't get past the bolded parts... How do you flash with those files on the SD card, everytime I return to the bootloaded it just runs the PH98IMG file and updates.... from there I'm stumped.

Take out your sd card, then go to recovery, wipe. Pop your battery out put your sd card back in, then continue.

1) Easiest thing for you is to turn USB Debugging on in Settings (Apps > Development), hook up to PC, and use the Hasoon2000 Noob-proof toolkit to reboot directly to recovery: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=22696442
2)Many Custom ROMs have Reboot to Recovery in the power button menu
3)Ninja grab the battery at an angle and slide SD Card out, go to recovery, and slide in while mainitaining power connection. (Not ah, recommended but good in a bind)

You need to first flash a custom recovery and then select that option (AmonRa 3.15 recommended, CWM is buggy on charging battery). That Hasoon2000 kit in last post can do that for you too if you don't have AmonRa installed.

That seems to be the biggest issue, can I flash a recovery without being able to boot my phone up... I only have access to the bootloader.
All the instructions fail to mention the requirement for the recovery app... That was the newb boo-boo.
I think there is a zip somewhere, but it's easier with adb.
fastboot flash recovery (name of recovery).img
I recommend S-Off. It makes all of this super easy. I promise its really not that hard. The wire trick looks worse than it is.
Edit: fixed. I'm retarded in the morning.

Yeah, manually you can flash a custom recovery via the same method, a PH98IMG.zip from bootloader. You delete the existing PH98IMG file and replace with one containing AmonRa (what exactly is that zip, do you need it still?)
But, adb fastboot commands when hooked up to PC can flash the recovery directly to memory from an img file. Just need USB Debugging turned on in the Settings on a regular boot to the ROM.
Sooo just use the toolkit on a PC to eliminate hassle if ya can lol. It uses that second paragraph's method. Just need to click an option and it runs the script. Now ya know both ways.
Oh, link in earlier post from my XDA app is not working :/ here is the thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=22696442
I guess until I find the zip and instructions I have a brick.

Ah, I meant the ROM, but not even the ROM boots because of bad flash. No worries. Don't need to be in the ROM anyway, toolkit works in the bootloader.
1) Ensure drivers for phone are properly installed on PC. (Google and download HTC Sync if unsure.)
2) Download and extract toolkit. Run the All In One exe file. The GUI comes up with your options.
3) With phone off, remove SD Card.
4) Boot into bootloader. Select Fastboot option.
5) Connect to PC via USB.
6) Select AmonRa from toolkit options and install.
7) Power down phone, disconnect and insert SD Card.
8) Connect phone, power it up and select Reboot to Recovery on the toolkit.
From recovery, you can enable USB mass storage option for memory and download/transfer files you need from your PC, delete the PH98IMG.zip, etc.

Several user reports in the forum say ClockworkMod (CWM) has an issue with charging our batteries when the drain gets low. Risk not being able to charge phone at all and brick that way. AmonRa or TWRP from the Development section are still recommended for this particular phone for now.
Hope you get sorted out on the ROM
Sounds like you're getting instructions to do more than you asked.
Go to post three on the following page and scroll down to "Latest leak and installation instructions".
Make sure it flashes twice. I just did this procedure this afternoon without any trouble.

Right. That's the "recovery" part.
But its also described as "root, and all". I'm wondering if this allows the installer to root the OTA Honeycomb? Or will more work be required before the install can be further changed (i.e. s-off, eventually upgraded to ICS, etc.)?
It works
I can confirm this works with root flashed and all. I now have a rooted HC. tyvm globatron

so, does that mean you could, in theory, flash a custom HC rom once we get one?
Throw up some screenshots or a video would you?
edit: oh and test rom manager and titanium backup if you don't mind.
I have a rooted CWM backup of the stock.
Do I need to restore and then unroot before proceeding with HC?

Hey Guys
how do you do the step 6?
I am in cmd and kept telling me command not recornized or something...

No, as it says in the OP, You MUST be s-off and THEN run an RUU. Accept all updates to include the HC update and the view will be soft bricked. THEN use fastboot to push the mini ruu.

If it says it's an unrecognized command, then either you do not have fastboot installed, or you haven't gone into environment variables (assuming it's a windows box) and added those commands to the path. try that first (google is your friend and you can google in XDA). Good luck.
A quick question here. Once it is the soft brick mode, I hold down power and volume down to get back to fastboot mode. Is this correct? And I know the ruu will wipe my data but nothing here should wipe the internal sd, correct?
thank you so much for quick respond..

Im not sure what this method of rooting will do for us, but I am under the impression that this will help if we need to go back to GB, or flash another custom HC rom when someone else cooks one up. I have not tested downgrading.
I can report that clockwork is installed with the option to flash from zip, mounts, etc just like the old clockwork. And I still have S-OFF. I installed ROM manager, but it gave me the "you don't have clockwork installed" message. I'm not sure if that is normal, because I don't use ROM Manager. Titanium did see root. Check out the screens.

I haven't done this yet, but I'm dling the RUU right now to do it and help people troubleshoot.
To answer your question, if you hold down the power button long enough, the view will power off, then you can hold power + vol down to get back into the bootloader and select fastboot mode, then open cmd, type fastboot devices and check to make sure yours shows up, then proceed with pushing the mini-ruu. If I'm wrong guys, correct me. Hope it works out for you.

Im not sure if this matters, but when I was in soft brick, I rebooted a few times and could not get into the bootloader. It just seemed to ignore the vol down keypress. I then unplugged the usb, powered off from soft brick, and held the vol. down button down even before I hit the power button as I was turning it on. Once I was in bootloader, I just plugged the usb back in.
EDIT: More tips:
1.After I flashed the initial stock ruu, and before I accepted any updates, I turned off fastboot in the power options and enabled usb debugging.
2. I did this from a Windows 7 laptop. When I initially tried to perform the softbrick steps, I got an access denied error message. The files were sent ok, but errored on saving. I closed the command prompt, and re-lauched the command prompt as administrator. The commands sent successfully.
3. Also, once you send the mini ruu over, the Tablet sat in the the oem loader with a 70% full progress bar after I successfully sent the mini ruu. I waited about 10 minutes because I was unsure how to proceed. I finally issued:
fastboot reboot-bootloader
Once back into bootloader, I mounted usb storage, copied SU to the card, and flashed from zip

Yeah, rom manager won't work bc we don't have official support from Koush for CWM recovery so that's no issue, I was just curious is all lol. I'm glad to hear titanium detects root, as that was an issue initially for the view. Try to backup your apps, test radios (3g, 4g, wifi, bluetooth, GPS, ETC), run quadrant. I don't know how familiar you are with honeycomb to test out all of it's functions, but we are going to need a few people to test this out for globatron so he can make fixes and/or adjustments as necessary, which is why he specifically asked for devs and people familiar with troubleshooting to do this first. That's the beauty of open source, we're all guinea pigs.
I forgot to ask this earlier. What does the soft brick state look like? Is it just the white screen the the green HTC on it? I want to make sure I don't power it off while it is still flashing HC.

On mine the command was ./fastboot recovery recovery.img as long as you are in fastboot in the bootloader.

Since you're in fastboot usb, make sure the recovery image is in the android tools folder containing fastboot.exe. The command is "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" without the quotes and recovery.img being the name of the image file you put in your android tools folder.

I would prefer ICS.
I would read up on BAMF ICS or Cleanrom ICS and follow the steps to flash as long as you are on the new firmware. There are others but those are the ones that I've tried I'm currently on BAMF.
BAMF looks more straightforward. waiting for a response on a question over there.
What did you need to know?
it *appears* that i'm ready to flash. there are two files that i've downloaded. one is a rom, the other a kernal. i'm trying to figure out which is which and what my next steps are.
here are the instructions, and i'm wondering how important the nandroid backup is, since i'm basically starting fresh.
Download rom file and PH98IMGnewfirmwarepeople.zip
Rename PH98IMGnewfirmwarepeople.zip to "PH98IMG.zip" without the quotes
Place both files on external SD card and reboot to recovery
Make a nandroid backup
Wipe data, cache, dalvic cache, and system
Flash the rom through the "Flash Zip Menu" in recovery
From main recovery screen, choose "Developer Menu"
Select "Reboot to Bootloader" from the developer menu
Phone will reboot to hboot, you may have to select bootloader from hboot screen
Bootloader will load the PH98IMG.zip, select "Yes" to update.
Rock on with your bad self and reboot system
The one with BAMF in the title is typically the Rom and the kernel would either be oldfirmwarepeople.zip or newfirmwarepeople.zip this file has to be renamed as PH98IMG.zip and place on the ext sd card. Then in amon-ra wipe everything and flash the rom zip then from the developer menu boot into bootloader and let it apply the kernel update then it will reboot then profit.
do you see any issues with following the directions above?
This will explain everything you need to do to get S-Off, ICS ROM, ENG HBOOT, Recovery and Root.
Things you need to download:
My AIO Kit. Get the full version from here.
SuperUser from here
ENG HBOOT from here
ICS ROM from here
Stock T-Mobile 1.43 ROM from here
READ S-Off Instructions from here.
S-Off Tool from here. (Download is in the bottom)
As always, I do not take any responsibility for what happens to your phone. I've done this myself and I can confirm that it works.
This is for T-Mobile Users ONLY (for now). I'll edit it for other users soon.
BACK UP YOUR INFO FROM YOUR PHONE MEMORY AND SD CARD.
1. Make sure USB Debugging is enabled. Go to Settings -> Applications -> Development -> USB Debugging.
2. Download my tool and run it. If your bootloader is unlocked (most likely it is), on my tool, press "Boot into Bootloader". After you are in bootloader, run the "Relock Bootloader" command
3. Put the Stock T-Mobile 1.43 ROM on to your SD Card. Make sure it in the root folder. Rename the file to PH85IMG. Run the command on my tool to "Boot into Bootloader" It should scan for the ROM. If it doesn't (It may be in Fastboot mode, that's why) press the power button so it switches from Fastboot into HBOOT mode.
4. It will detect it and press the Volume Up button. It will flash the Stock ROM. After the phone boots up, re enable USB Debugging again.
5. Get your unlock_code.bin from HTCDev (unless you have it) and place it in the Data folder of my tool.
6. Run the "Unlock Bootloader" command.
7. When it sends the .bin file to your phone, press Volume Up and the Power Button. It will unlock your bootloader. Re enable USB Debugging again.
8. Flash CWM 5.0.2.7 recovery from my tool.
9. Place the SuperUser zip file onto your SD Card (not the internal one!). From my tool, press "Boot into Recovery". Go to "Install Zip From SD Card", "Choose Zip from SD Card" and flash "Superuser-3.0.7-efghi-signed.zip". Press the back button and select "Reboot System Now"
10. Read the S-Off instructions carefully and watch the video.
BACK UP YOUR INFO FROM YOUR PHONE MEMORY AND SD CARD.
Put an blank memory card in your phone. Run the tool and do the wire trick.
11. After it is all done, re enable USB Debugging. Put the ICS ROM on your SD Card. Rename it to PH85IMG. Run the command on my tool to "Boot into Bootloader" It should scan for the ROM. If it doesn't (It may be in Fastboot mode, that's why) press the power button so it switches from Fastboot into HBOOT mode. Press Volume Up and it will flash the ICS ROM. (It will boot twice into bootloader so DO NOT TOUCH YOUR PHONE). After it is done, press the power button and the phone will restart.
12. When it turns back on, re enable USB Debugging. Put the ENG HBOOT on your SD Card. Rename it to PH85IMG. Run the command on my tool to "Boot into Bootloader" It should scan for the HBOOT. If it doesn't (It may be in Fastboot mode, that's why) press the power button so it switches from Fastboot into HBOOT mode. Press Volume Up and now you have ENG HBOOT.
13. Flash CWM 5.0.2.7 recovery from my tool.
14. Place the SuperUser zip file onto your SD Card (not the internal one!). From my tool, press "Boot into Recovery". Go to "Install Zip From SD Card", "Choose Zip from SD Card" and flash "Superuser-3.0.7-efghi-signed.zip". Press the back button and select "Reboot System Now"
You are now fully S-Off'd, have ICS installed and fully rooted!
Please be sure to thank all the devs that made all the tools and mods!
Alot of info here.
If I already flashed the ICS leak , now locked bootloader , S still ON.
Would it be 5-9 then step 13 ?

If you are on the ICS leak, I believe the new HBOOT that comes with it does not support flashing recoveries. I could be wrong though.
If you want to S-Off, follow from step 5 and onward.
If the new HBOOT supports flashing recoveries, do as you said, 5-9.

This will explain everything you need to do to get S-Off, ICS ROM, ENG HBOOT, Recovery and Root.
Things you need to download:
My AIO Kit. Get the full version from here.
SuperUser from here
ENG HBOOT from here
ICS ROM from here
Stock T-Mobile 1.43 ROM from here

As always, I do not take any responsibility for what happens to your phone. I've done this myself and I can confirm that it works.
This is for T-Mobile Users ONLY (for now). I'll edit it for other users soon.
BACK UP YOUR INFO FROM YOUR PHONE MEMORY AND SD CARD.
1. Make sure USB Debugging is enabled. Go to Settings -> Applications -> Development -> USB Debugging.

Great tutorial Hasoon but shouldn't you mention in steps 3, 11 and 12 that once you've finished flashing the ph85img file and rebooted in each case that that file should be deleted to avoid any conflict with the next step renaming to ph85img? If noobs already see a ph85img file, they might think the correct one is already there instead of deleting the old one and renaming the next step file ph85img which would be a totally different file. Just my thoughts to avoid any confusion which inevitably will happen. lol
Unlocked via HTC DEV my old info wasnt working for whatever reason.
Followed steps recovery flashed , superuser flashed.
Titanium cant get root priveleges. Updates SU DLd busybox.
Not sure if Im rooted or if the app is wonky.

Download Root Check Basic and take a screenshot of what it says. Let me see if the files got the correct permissions.
Weird , BusyBox was not launching anything. Rebooted now it does says SU not giving permission.
SU switched from Prompt to Allow no difference.
Update stops at checking for root.
RootCheck "sorry this device does not have proper root access"
For clarity S On , Bootloader is unlocked , CWM is installed , I flashed SU zip twice. ICS leak installed prior to all the above. S On, rooted , custom rom prior to ICS update.

Thanks but I think that the directions could be even more explicit.
Using the all in one tool, it is not clear whether the phone needs to be connected to usb (some people may forget), and it's not clear what mode the phone needs to be in. Does it need to be in the bootloader menu by pressing vol down and power? Or can you just plug the phone in via usb and start it working?

So I tried to flash a rom and hit some problems, now when I try to restart my phone it gets stuck on the "verizon 4g lte" screen and wont load past there. When I open bootloader there are 3 warnings at the very top:
*** TAMPERED ***
*** RELOCKED ***
*** Security Warning ***
How can I get my phone back to stock? I need this IMMEDIATLY if possible!!
Also make it as simple as possible, I'm new to roms and roots and flashing.

as it was stated, you need to unlock your bootloader again. A recovery image is a image that we use to flash and wipe roms and the phone. Amon RA, TWRP and CW are the ones we can use for our phone. I personally use TWRP and Amon RA depending on my mood. You can find them here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1425091
Towards the bottom of the list you will see recovery. You will need to flash one of those in order to flash a custom rom.
Also make sure to read the tutorials towards the bottom. before you start messing with your phone you should be familiar with everything. If you do something wrong and brick your phone, its hard to recover from if at all and you would have an expensive paper weight

1. you need to download fastboot if you have not already. You can find that in the android sdk
2.) once fastboot is downloaded boot your phone into bootloader and select the fastboot option and plug your phone into your computer
3.) place the recovery image in the same directory as fastboot and use the command prompt (windows key +r then type cmd and hit enter)
4.) change directory to where fastboot is and run this command
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
where recovery.img is the name of the recovery file that you downloaded

yeah no problem.
If you go back into the bootloader and select recovery, this will bring you into the Amon Ra.
Download a rom from the forums, I personally like Neo's Roms, Infection 2.8.1 is a good choice. But download any rom and put it on your SD card.
1.) select USB-MS toggle and then select on of the options
2.) copy downloaded rom to mounted sdcard
3.) once copied, hit the power button to unmount and then return to the main menu
4.)select wipe from the main menu and then do each one of these 3 times
Wipe All data/factory reset
Wipe /data
Wipe /cache
Wipe /Dalvik-cache
Wipe /system
then go back to main menu and then select Fash zip menu and select where you placed your rom and then flash...once its flash go back to main menu and select Developers menu and selet reboot bootloader
open the rom using a zip program and pull the boot.img from the rom and place it in your fastboot directory
once you are in the bootloader it should go to fastboot usb automatically and then run these commands
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot reboot
it should reboot and load your rom

Dont worry to much about the MD5,I havent used one if forever. Its basically just a security check to make sure that the file you downloaded didnt get corrupt. But with modern technology and internet, its less likely to mess up while downloading. Still possible, but not likely

thanks for the help, before i got your message i got around the issue in a different way just trying a few things. I figured out the phone would boot into recovery with no sd card in it but i couldnt flash the rom again without it installed so i put the sd in partially and then held the battery against the contacts with out inserting it completely then booted into recovery, push the sd in the rest of the way and i was golden for there.
but i happy that someone knew wat it was on the sd card that was giving me the problem ive got that deleted now thanks for the help

you need to fastboot flash the recovery on there. downlod this htc one max toolkit found on this thread here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2578663
use the toolkit to flash the cwm international recovey.
once flashed, myou can then choose recovery from hboot and hopefully it will boot cwm
so i used the toolkit to flash teh recovery. i pushed the file on the right side of the toolkit where it says flash recovery and it showed its done show how many seconds it took. now i pushed the back-up into the sd card and selected recovery in the hboot menu. it reboots and come back to the same red triangle. i do now know what to do.
i would greatly appreciate it, if you can give me step by step guide. i know i am making some type of mistake.
once again i greatly appreciate your help!
are you definitely unlocked?
need unlocked bootloader to flash recovery.
open a command prompt windows (dos window) with admin (hold shift and right click toolkit folder ond select command prompt here)
navigate to the toolkit folder where the fastboot tool sits. now copy your downloaded recovery.img in the same folder as the fastboot.
make sure the downloaded recovery file is called recovery.img
now type this
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

on your pc, uncompress the zip keeping folders structure.
in recovery, choose advanced and mount. mount usb and copy the uncompressed clockworkmod folder to the phone.
then try restore from backup.
when you use push command, i think its coping to internal storage. you need my backup folder on external.
good luck dude

the backup has helped others restore their device so it defo works dude.
your sd card should contain this folder structure. clockworkmod\backup\2014-01-07.22.42.20
if all fails, download virtuous 2.0.0 international zip and install that. thats based on latest kitkat update and works

do a full wipe in recovery.
from the main menu in clockwork i did the wipe cache and factory reset. it took out the system and it got stuck again at the htc one screen. i am intalling it again and see. should the sd card stay in the phone the whole time?

sdcard being there all the time shouldnt make any difference.
make a full wipe/factory reset, wipe dalvik
install virtuous roms
reboot
thats all to it.

that's the one. virtuous 2.0 something. then once installed do the virtous ota to 2.0.2
ps install twrp recovey . best recovery to install this rom
and fingerprint sensor wont work while unlocked. relock the bootloader and fingerprint works.
you can lock and unlock bootloader without htcdev as long as you got soff hboot.
