Evening!!
I'm hoping you all might be able to help me out here. I have been running the OTA GB ROM for months now. Tonight I rebooted my phone by just holding the power button and hitting reboot. Its now however stuck on the HTC screen and won't boot past it.
I can get into the FASTBOOT menu and such, however when I try to go into the RECOVERY the phone just shuts off, or it will just reboot back into the HTC screen. I've tried download the Rezound_All-In-One_Kit_v2.0 and was able to flash the recovery again however I'm getting the same results, phone just shuts off.
Any idea on how to get my phone back? I really don't care about the data on the phone, just want to get it backup and working. lol I'm really confused as to why all the sudden its getting stuck on the HTC screen.
Did you try removing the battery and putting it back in?
are you rooted? which recovery?
I'm using Amon Ra style vigor and I am unlocked/rooted.
I'm trying to get ADB to detect my phone, but not having luck in that realm either. Was just going to try to push a ROM over to the phone. However it does not appear that it will detect my phone when in the FASTBOOT USB mode. I do a adb devices and it just comes back as none being found...

Download the RUU. Relock your phone ("fastboot oem lock" from command prompt), and run the ruu from your PC while connected to USB. After that you can unlock your phone again and start from scratch.
link to the RUU:

Will do downloading now, and thank you for the link. I so want to bang my head on the table.

disconnect your phone
close command prompt
ctrl+alt+del and kill any adb process
take out your battery, then put your battery back and connect your phone to your PC and boot to fastboot.
open up CMD again and you should be able to detect your phone.

you're on the latest gb update?
Yes I should be on the latest OTA. I had my phone rooted when I first got it, then Verizion did an OTA update which was messing with my phone. So I did an RUU and then re-rooted with the OTA Pre Root ROM.

gl. let me know how it goes.
Looks like that is not going to work.. I pulled the "firmware" file from that post and renamed it to the PH98IMG.ZIP.
It goes to "Loading...PH98IMG.ZIP
Then
Parsing...PH98IMG.ZIP
Then it just goes back to the main HBOOT menu.
I did unlock my phone again since I had locked it to run the RUU. Any suggestions on how to get the RUU to run?
Ran the RUU again from the link that you sent me. Getting this info when running it:
FROM IMAGE VERSION: 3.10.605.7
TO IMAGE VERSION: 2.01.605.11
Guessing it going from 3.10 to 2.01 is the issue???

so you are on the leaked ruu?
Apparently so...
I was sure I was on the OTA Stock one though, but apparently not, or I jacked things up trying to fix everything and flashed the wrong one.
I'm trying to go through post to downgrade my Mainver file. Thing is since I can't get into Recovery for whatever reason, and stupid ADB won't list my phone its making this difficult. I can run commands, example locking/unlocking but it won't let me shell in.

try to run the leak again.relock, put the ph file on the root of your sd card, then run the file in hboot once. after that finishes, run it again.
http://androidcommunity.com/htc-rezound-android-4-0-ics-leaked-with-sense-3-6-get-it-now-20120316/
download the stock version. you need to be relocked to do this.
after that, unlock, flash a recovery, then proceed to install an ics rom, like clean rom or the many others out there.
after you flash the leak twice, and boot to the OS for the first time, it can take up to 10 minutes to boot up in some cases. be patient.
Ok, i'll give that a go...
If I'm reading that post right though it saying that is ICS?? I was not running ICS, I had tried ICS but it was too buggy for my taste so I flashed back my restore and kernel. I'm wondering if I accidently flashed the ICS PH98IMG file.
I'm willing to give it a go though... Its going to take for EVER to download that file though as its on Rapidshare and I'm getting an eta of 6hrs lol.
What really just gets me is that I've not touched my phone as far as rooting/updating since February. And out of the blue it decides to take a dump on me...

ICS isn't that buggy especially after flashing a good rom. I actually have no bugs at all. Clean ROM is as stable as they come.
When you flashed the leak before, you lost the ability to fully revert back to pre leak status. you can however install a gb rom, but your radios ad such stay upgraded to the leak versions.

If its February, then you aren't on the leak. you just need to reset your main version I believe.
If I remember correctly my phone kept crashing on me. Granted this is when ICS first came out. I don't remember running an RUU though for ICS, however I did run one to get the OTA update.
I have a A500 tablet as well, which it is running ICS so I kind of get the two all mixed up when I think what I've done lol I've changed ROMS on my A500 so many times that my volume rocker is almost warn out
Found another host for the ICS Stock, it will be done in about 10 minutes.

ICS leak isnt in ruu format. perhaps thats why you dont remember it.
INSTALL:
- rename the downloaded leak file to “PH98IMG.zip” (no quotes)
– Place the renamed file onto the root of the SD Card
- relock your device
– Power down your device
– Reboot into the bootloader by holding VOL DOWN + Power
– The flashing process should begin automatically
- once complete, go back to bootloader and flash a second time.
Yesterday I flashed to the Charmeleon rom using TWRP. Stupidly I didn't make a backup of the stock rom and part of the process is wiping the current rom completely, which I did. Now it seems like I'm stuck with no way to get back to my stock rom. If there is ANY WAY to get back to the complete, full stock rom my EVO LTE came with, PLEASE explain to me how to do it! Thanks in advance for anyone who offers their help.
Well 1 you're in general so you're in the wrong section. 2 Yes! you can go back to stock WITH OUT your stuff using a RUU
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1655733
Or flash the stock rooted rom.
"We're coming from a pure power source"
Ok quick question, I found RUU files here - http://stockroms.net/file/HTCEvo4GLTE/RUU, and the link you gave me has 3 new ones... can anyone tell me which one is current?

your supposed to flash the same one that on your phone now... go into menu in about.. software info.. more.. build number.. mines is 1.13651.1 so thats the ruu that i would run... check to see what build u got and run that ruu and u golden!
Well that's my problem, none of those are on my phone, the Charmeleon rom is. I completely wiped the stock rom away which is what I'm trying to get back. Am I not able to do so?
An ruu is run from your pc, a rom is flashed through your recovery. Not to be a ****, but I think you should have read
a lot more about all of this before you started. So download the stock rooted rom from the dev section, boot into recovery, wipe everything but your sd card, and flash the rom just like you did before.
"We're coming from a pure power source"
Yeah sorry man, I'm just getting ahead of myself a bit because I've been searching this for the last (literally) 8 hours freaked out that I've done permanent damage to my phone. There's so many variations and believe it or not, there isn't a lot on this for this particular phone. Thanks to all you guys though, you all helped me a lot. Appreciate it.
The most recent build is 1.13, so you want to flash the stock rom of that build. It's always good to have the current ruu on your computer as a precaution, it can bring your phone back from the dead most of the time. Other than than its pretty easy, i'm on my phone so I can't post a link, but all you need should be in the stickies in the development section.
"We're coming from a pure power source"
Okay guys ran into antother quick problem. My bootloader was unlocked and in order to install the RUU it has to be locked. So I re-locked it and my phone will only start into the bootloader, with a 'security warning' on the screen. I now found out that if you have a custom rom installed when you re-lock the bootloader, you can only start into the bootloader until you run the RUU. So now I'm basically trying to find out how to run the RUU without actually being into my phone.

Like thwese guys said, if u want to take your phone into Sprint for any reason, just flash the Stock Rooted ROM. The RUU will take your phone back to it Original state, but u need to relock your Bootloader before u run that. But dont run the RUU and all that, just to have a Bacjup of a stock ROM. That would just be silly. flash the Stock Rooted ROM, and make a backup of that. It will be no different from having the Original Stock ROM. Only differnce is, is that it has SU and Busybox installed with it. SO your fine. No worries

You should b able to run the RUU while the phone is in fastboot.
Everything worked. So now I'm completely back to the stock rom as if I had just taken the phone out of the box?

I did the same thing you did but with CM10 rom. Where can I find the most current stock ROM that is rooted? I want to stay rooted but also have the stock ROM available to flash? Your input is extremely appreciated.
I am at my wits end here. This phone is driving me crazy. It seems like the only ROM's I can get to work are ones that use Aroma installer. I don't know what part of the Aroma installer is what makes it work, but I would really like to know because I want to try NeWt's and/or AOSP.
I am S-ON
I am on whatever firmware gets installed with the Nil's business ICS Sense 4.0 Aroma installer. (I don't know how to check my firmware, I imagine it's easy to check and/or install new firmware, but I can't seem to find a thread about firmwares anywhere. All I can find is Kernels/Roms)
I tried newt's first. I wiped everything, installed the rom. Then I rebooted to bootloader and did fastboot flash boot boot.img (the boot.img I pulled out of the rom's .zip) it flashed that, then I rebooted. The result: Stuck at HTC logo.
No idea what caused that, but I decided I'd go for ICS AOSP instead. I installed that, following the same process as above, and in this scenario I get stuck at the CM9 bootlogo infinitely (bootloop).
I'm sorry if I seem really frustrated, but honestly it's because I am. I've never had this much of a problem getting custom roms to work on any phone I've ever had. I really hope it's something I'm just missing, because I feel like a moron. I can't get any of these roms to even boot, and that's just sad...
PLEASE HELP!

First off, no firmware will be installed with a rom, but this is a good place to start. With you being s-off, even a kernel won't be installed with a custom rom unless you flash the boot.img in hboot (or fastboot flash). My suspicion is that you are still on GB firmware. This can be alleviated by installing a patch. However, I think it in your best interest to re-lock, flash the newest RUU (found at androidpolice), and unlock again. That way, you will have updated to ICS firmware (therefore making it easier to run ICS based ROMS).
Do you have a working ROM right now that you can rever to so we can get some information off of it?

Well, it's funny you should say that. I DID, or so I thought. I got fed up and restored a backup. How even my backup won't boot. I have no idea how that is even possible. Do I need to re-lock the device to install an RUU? What you are saying sounds like exactly what I need (to get on ICS firmware) so if you could tell me the easiest way to do that, I'll get started right away, haha.
Anyways, the backup I tried to restore was viper rez 1.03, and my hboot version is 2.11.0000. I cant' boot a rom at all.

If you can't boot a rom at all, then I can't tell you exactly which firmware you are on. With your hboot version, though, it looks like you are on GB firmware. Yes, you need to relock to run the RUU. Relock, run the RUU (found here: http://www.androidpolice.com/2012/0...ull-ruu-build-4-03-605-2-for-the-htc-rezound/ ), unlock again, flash AR 3.15, then move onto ICS goodness.

Ok, I relocked, put the PH98IMG on my sdcard, I loaded up the bootloader, pressed power, and it loaded PH98IMG.zip (took a while, said loading) then after it finished loading it said checking PH98IMG.zip (which also took a while) but after that, nothing happened. It just went back to the bootloader main menu... what am I doing wrong?

Wow, I just can't catch a break. Turns out, the RUU I downloaded was corrupt. So I got one that works, flashes the RUU, re-locked, reinstalled recovery, and flashed NeWt's and guess what. Hangs at HTC logo. WTF!
Edit: My hboot is 2.27.0000 now...
I just flashed that CM9 with the table being flipped over and it seems to boot okay. So I'm not sure what happened with newts. Oh well, I'm calling it a night. Been at this for over 5 hours (yea I know, that's insane)

For both installs, I did a flashboot boot amonrarecovery.img so that it could write to the boot partition. (A nifty little trick courtesy of scotty over at androidforums.com ) however, not wanting to rule out the possibility that maybe that little trick was the cause of the issue, I extraced the boot.img and did a fastboot flash boot boot.img to make sure. However it still was hanging at the HTC logo. That's when I tried the cm9 rom, and used the trick, and it worked fine.
I have no idea why NeWtS didnt' work for me. I can't post in the thread specifically for it yet, but as far as I know I did everything correct this time, so I'm at a loss.

Oh believe me, I'm just as glad My original plan was to flash a ROM real fast before going out with some friends. I figured worst case scenario I could flash a backup. But I didn't realize you can't restore a nandroid from recovery if you are S-ON without manually writing the boot image again. So I made myself a nice paperweight and spent the entire night fixing it I'd like to find out what went wrong with NeWts, but to be honest I tinkered with cm9 most of last night and I think I'm happy with it. It's so smooth. And to be honest, I have low expecations for every sense rom now since every single one I tried has the autofocus issue.
I had already had my phone's bootloader unlocked and rooted and had a GPe ROM installed and worked perfectly. THEN I saw that you could literally make it a Google Play edition phone complete with OTA and worked on trying to achieve that. Getting my phone S-Off wasn't working because I believe of my HBOOT version (1.55) so I was told to download this stock ROM that would downgrade me to reach a version that I could then run revone to achieve S-OFF.

I ran a backup through TWRP first and then flahsed this ROM, which has kept my HTC One at the HTC One splash screen. I connected it to my computer/ADB and got it into the bootloader to go into custome recovery BUT the recovery takes me to a black screen with a phone and red triangle, so it's like my recovery isn't there anymore. Fine.
I download the latest TWRP for my phone(triple checked) and ran the fastboot flash recovery command through ADB but it says
"(bootloader) signature checking...FAILED (remote: signature verify fail)"
is there some sort of way to disable the signature check using ADB or am I actually going about this the wrong way?
I'll admit, I don't do this stuff oftem, so ask as many questions as needed as I probably left out details you may need
I may be wrong but you may have to re-lock the bootloader and run the ruu back to stock.
nandroid backup restore won't change the hboot so I don't think you'll have any luck there.
I'm running ARHD 40 just till we can find a way to run s-off on our AT&T devices.

Not to sound n00b-ish, but what would be the best way of doing this?
EDIT: Actually it is relocked already! Duh! On the bootloader screen it says "TAMPERED" and then "RELOCKED" below that
That's alright, we were all noobs at some point in time.
Sounds like you re-locked the bootloader without stock recovery.

Run the RUU from a windows based computer that has HTC drivers and it should restore it back to stock.

You can always unlock the bootloader again, install twrp and try to boot and see if that works.
Install the nandroid backup matching your system and you can then get to your data.

But how would I do that if I can't even boot up the phone past the splash screen? I did all of the unlocking and TRWP installing via the phone
Downloading and installing the file right now. It's going slow as hell but I'll run when I get the chance
THANK YOU FOR STICKING WITH ME!

Sure thing man. It's stuck at that screen because when your phone is unlocked, it allows custom recovery but when it's locked, it won't boot unless it finds the stock recovery. I am not 100% sure but I've had that issue as well. I had to run the RUU to get back to stock since you can't lock the bootloader with custom recovery and expect it to boot. It may vary from device to device but I've always had to RUU back to stock or fastboot flash stock recovery to get past that screen before you lock the bootloader. You can try again, there is stock recovery posted by someone in forums. Download that, try to go in fastboot mode and try fastboot flash recovery recovery_name.img. I think once you've locked the bootloader it may not work but worth a shot.

Thank you. I'm downloading the .exe and will post the results. But it looks like that might take a few hours :/
hey is there another link? that one is so slow and keeps timing out :/
You can either use download manager or chrome browser is pretty good at managing that.

I just did a google search for the term RUU_M7_UL_JB43_SENSE50_MR_Cingular_US_3.17.502.3_R and gave you the second result I got. Just search for the name of the file and you will find plenty of links.
Hope that helps.
This sounds like the exact same problem I had. The RUU and directions solved that one for me too...

THANK YOU NOOB!!
I managed to get it fixed. Turns out HTC hosted that exact file so I downloaded it and it fixed my phone. Good times..
These are the steps i took to get the Kit Kat update.
I couldnt get the update OTA like most people and i was completely stock.
So if you are in a similar position these steps may help.
DO AT YOUR OWN RISK!
1. Unlock your bootloader and get root access. I did by following these instructions from this video.

2. Gain S-OFF by following these instructions from this video.

3. After you have completed these steps successfully head over to @clsA thread and download the AT&T 4.4.2 OTAPkg.zip and the
stock Recovery_Cingular_US_3.17.502.3.img. Link to the thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2659374
4. Place the downloaded .zip on the root your phone storage.
5. follow the steps in @clsA post and flash Recovery_Cingular_US_3.17.502.3.img via fastboot.
6. Navigate to recovery from fastboot on your HTC ONE. If you see "Mount SDCard failed" ignore it. goto to phone storage and locate the update.zip and flash it.

So am I the only person who went into settings and Clicked AT&T update and got the 4.4.2 update that way. I have never had a phone in all my life tell me an update was ready. I always had to check manually about once or twice a week out of boredom. Did the same with my ONE last week and sure enough there was an update and it downloaded and installed fine.

i have been clicking the check for update link at least 10 times a day since the update was released and i didnt get it ota i had to do it manually
If you're stock, you should be able to get the update just by changing the date. I brought my phone back to stock (3.17.502.3) then just kept hitting Software Update. If it didn't update, advance the date and try again. After a few date changes, the update was offered.

Anyone know if there are issues with S-Off and rooting since the update? I am 100% stock, non rooted, never installed a rom. Its been stock since the day I got it. I planned on getting the AT&T update to 4.4.2, rooting, making an update then testing some roms.
I know with other phones the update screwed some things up so I didn't know if rooting/s-off were an issue since the update.
Thanks ll!

So what exactly do we need to get OTA?
Stock recovery, android 4.3, locked bootloader?
I have all that, and still not finding an OTA update. Manually looking for the update, and I'm just not getting it.

Oh, I meant from at&t over the air. I feel like I'm missing something, so trying to find out what the ota requirements are.
I can't flash it yet, I only have a windows 8.1 computer with usb 3.0 ports. Fastboot doesn't work.

@chp recommend advancing your date and try and see if the update comes through. Try it a few times and see if it will work for you also

Tried that with no luck. Had to do a factory reset because I went to far, and my OTA check was in -300 hours.
You guys are forgetting that to be able to update the OTA, you need to have an ACTIVE at&t sim card inserted to your phone. I think this is the reason for all the confusion around since not everybody lives in the US
Downgrade to 4.3
OK, so I was able to upgrade but now I messed it up trying to patch default.xml. :crying:
I am trying to revert to the 4.3 with RRU but I get error 155.
I am S-Off, HBOOT 1.56.
I tried with bootloader re-locked, unlocked, locked. I tried with stock recovery and with ClockWM recovery both locked and unlocked.
I also tried to re-apply the patch with stock recover but it fails verification...
Any ideas how do I go back or fix this?
Thanks
Adrian

The BEST way to make sure that you can run the RUU, whether it be the ATT version, or the Dev Edition is to make sure you downgrade the HBOOT to 1.44. You will never see than error again. No problems at all. Why on Earth though would you want the ATT version, when you can Dev it, and take the 4.4.2 OTA with no carrier BS?

Thank you.
Actually that is what I did. After downgrading HBoot I was able to use the RRU.
Unfortunately I use my phone for work with Mobileiron and will flag it to IT if I'm rooted. I have tried a couple of workaround so but did not work very well. Every time I try to monkey with it IT starts getting emails every 30 min saying my device is not compliant and I am rooted.... So my best solution is to unlock boot loader and flash mods there. Which got me into this trouble....
I can't navigate to the recovery after I flashed Recovery_Cingular_US_3.17.502.3.img to install the OTA. I've tried going to recovery mode and then pressing Power + Vol. Up to no avail. Any help?
