Has anyone successfully flashed the RUU back to there phone? I've been trying to flash a phone i need to send back but i constantly get Error 155 which according to the readme means I'm using the incorrect RUU. I've checked the MD5, and downloaded the RUU from 2 different sites (both the exact same file), i've also tried it on 2 separate computers but the same thing happens.
What i've done to this phone:
Unlocked bootloader via HTCdev
flashed custom recovery via con247 post
flashed root via con247 post
I reflashed the original recovery thinking that was the issue, but still no go.
Any ideas?

Nope. They are signed files and have a certain signature. If modified, it won't be read.

pulling the rom.zip from the RUU and installing through bootloader.
I did this already,
INSTRUCTIONS
1) Download this - MD5 = 55023CC10B59FDEC0AAA6695C4CF83FB
2) rename to PJ53IMG.zip (make sure it's not named PJ53IMG.zip.zip...)
3) put the PJ53IMG.zip on the root of your SD-Card. (not in any folders)
4) reboot to bootloader
5) let the phone do its magic
6) enjoy Sense 4.1
7) smile.
i remember now... wow amnesia
your link is bad now, the site says it was removed
i probably have it on my computer at home. thanks for reminding me what to do

1.Backstory:
I am running the latest ICS leak (4.03.605.2) I am UN-Rooted and S-Off
When I ran Controlbear everything went fine but when presented with the option to install a different hboot I declined...
Now via ADB I CANNOT push recovery... I get the remote fail error.
I've tried renaming the flashable Amon Ra recovery to PH98IMG.zip...but it doesn't "parse." Regardless I am unable to do anything.
What are my option and what do I do?
S-on and then re-off? How do I S-on? (I haven't seen a rezound thread for this)
Can I flash anything? Do I flash a different hboot? Can I flash it via the PH98IMG method?
Any help would be most appreciated!

Flash the jupunto bear hboot

Rename to PH98IMG and flash on hboot
Reboot to hboot again and flash this using adb commands

Put it on your and/fastboot folder and run the following command
Fastboot flash recovery amon315.img
Then boot into recovery and flash this zip to root your rezound

Make sure the file is on the root of your sd card

You can't flash stuff in fastboot with a locked bootloader with the stock hboot, and s-off relocks the bootloader.
So you have to flash a hacked hboot.
Flashing via ph98img, however, still works.

I was going to S-Off but lack of clear directions and dead links and such I decided against it.
What my problem is is that I that I flashed ViperRez when It first came out and now I'm not able to flash any other Rom.
I know I need to extract the boot img from the ROM i want to use and flash it BUT I cant get adb to run on my system.
I know about renaming to PH98IMG and flashing it.
I even took the the PH98IMG from an existing Rom and dropped the boot img I wanted into that folder and zipped it back up.
I have tried to flash several boot images many different ways and always no image found. :crying:
I have read every help file on this and followed the directions but still no luck. Can anyone help a old man out..

So basically adb wont recognize your device? if so you could try to reinstall the drivers and that might help.
Not sure about the dead links, but I think the S-Off directions are pretty clear. Seriously, this kind of trouble is exactly why you do want S-Off. The amount of hassle you are spending on this would probably have already resulted in S-Off.

I really don't care about S-off anyway and as of late most of the s-off links for instructs and such are dead. But I just want to be able flash different Roms. Before Viperrez i could flash almost anything now I cant get anything to install.
I guess what i don't understand is why I cant get a boot image to berecognized in recovery?

Well, you could back up everything on your rom and backup your internal storage and try to use the global RUU to get back to complete stock and then that will probably fix the problem. RUU fixes most problems.

Yes I've tried fastboot as well as adb neither works anymore , not even funky kernel. I've be dealing with this problem since flashing AOSP over a month ago.
OP try flashing Vigor360 by zph pilot , at least his kernel. I can run any sense 3.6 Rom with his kernel zip.

Hello,
I have tried reading all of the stickies (and list of stickies post) for a method to downgrade hboot 1.58 without success. My ultimate goal is to be able to flash a custom recovery so that I can try the radio fix since my wife's Evo 3D will not complete the hands free activation and she does not get data services. We took the phone to the Sprint store and they said the previous owner flashed SOMETHING to the phone and messed up the radio. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You need to do the wire trick. Its simple. Search for the guide on here and download the required stuff. Look at the video then follow the guide. After you have s-off then you download the hboot you want and put it on the SD card and flash.
There isn't another method to putting a custom recovery on the phone? I just want to fix this hands free activation failing.

Don't be afraid of trying the wire trick - it really isn't that frightening as long as you follow instructions. I managed to do it on my first go, much to my exhilaration
If the previous owner flashed something onto the phone then does it have some sort of recovery on it?

Make sure the file is in the root of the SD card and is named exactly "PG86IMG.zip" with the caps and without the quotes. Sometimes an extra ".zip" gets added when the file is downloaded to Windows and copied over, so it's best to check it with a file manager such as ES File Explorer on the phone.
Also, when you first start the bootloader it may not scan the card until you press the power button once to select fastboot.
Edit: I see you edited your last post and you've figured it out.

You probably need to flash a ROM that is compatible with the bootloader you just installed. If you've removed the PG86IMG.zip file from the SD card you should be able to start recovery from the bootloader and flash a ROM. If you are using 4EXT, you will probably need to format cache+dalvik before it will let you do anything else.

All of those issues sound like a bad kernel flash. If you do the wire trick, flashing kernels is easier too.
This is my first post so sorry if what I ask is stupid or something. I have searched everywhere and cannot find anything that is current enough to help me. I have hboot 1.19 and my software version is 2.13.651.1 710RD. I'm unlocked, rooted and also have TWRP recovery and I'm s-on. When I rooted my phone it also gave me SuperSU. I'm super lost now because I can't flash any ROMs to my phone. I've tried the charmeleon ROM and also the tranquility ROM but when TWRP is at the end of the Installing process it says that it failed and that there is no md5 or something like that.
what am I doing wrong?

Just disable MD5 check in TWRP, that should fix it. You do want to verify your MD5 matches in something like ES File Explorer. If you don't that will cause many other problems.

awesome i'll give this a try. where do i disable the MD5 check at in TWRP? also, I know how to look up the MD5 file on my mac through terminal but what do i compare that MD5 to for a match?
Make sure you have the latest version of twrp which at this point is 2.3.1.0

That shouldn't really be a problem but it should be in install, I've never really paid attention to it

couldn't find it... hmm.. i'm wondering if there is something else since i've tried two different roms and i'm getting the same error...
someone told me I need to flash the kernel separately but i have no idea how to do that...
Well yes but the Rom will still install without errors. Go to the TeamWin website and download it from there. Grab the zip and rename it and place it on your external sd and boot to bootloader. It will install and then reboot but if you don't have a working Rom remove the sd afterward otherwise you can get stuck in a loop. Do not place it on internal if you don't have a working Rom. The other ways to install would be to use goo manager to install or flash the recovery in fastboot

Alright i'll give this a try, but what zip am i supposed to download and rename? I already have the latest version of TWRP on my phone.
You can check the md5 using a file explorer. Longpress on file and select properties, then compare to where you downloaded the ROM from. If s-on, you'll have to pull the boot.IMG from the ROM zip and fastboot flash from cmd or use flash image GUI app from your phone if you can boot.
Also, I think the disable md5 check in TWRP is under settings.

Internal storage on my phone is fried - can't mount anything. PC doesn't find it. RUU is out of date or would possibly work. I'm using windows 7 and having a very scary ride because the phone won't show up with anything except the SD card - which would be awesome and let me flash the new CM10 - but unfortunately when I go to install it, I get "unable to mount SD card" as a perpetual error message. Even the 3.15 RUU is out of date, also, and though I went through the rooting process and unlocked the device thru HTC's website, I have version 3.16 and the RUU tells me to get the correct RUU and try again. I have to go to work now, if anybody else has been through the special hell I'm trying to deal with please post something, anything, to get my windows able to find my phone, or my drive (internal) to mount to the pc or anything! This looks like a brick (and I've never screwed anything up this bad before )
Boot to twrp and mount storage, then plug into computer. Windows will recognize that it's corrupt and give you the choice to format it.
I still have S-ON. *facepalm*
How can I achieve S-OFF status so that the ROM, which I more or less WAS able to flash using your advice, will be able to quit boot looping and actually work?
So much fail yesterday! that's what I get for trying to quit smoking.... :cyclops:
You can use moonshine

I have Ubuntu 64 bit lol. ****ing trolls killed my windows dreams. Got it about 40% booted earlier - said Android is Upgrading and ran through the apps, then died on me and never got that far again. I'm not 100% sure that S-ON is my only issue - this phone has had problems since day 1 power cycling and a few other strange issues, I'm probably going to just get a warranty replacement.

Definitely sounds like you might have issues. Won't hurt to take it in-just make sure you take it to a reputable Sprint repair center.

Got it done. Waited about a week or so to clear my head - then, starting with the unlock bootloader, I used dirtyracun to basically complete the whole process. Was missing a step on babyracun and it wasn't working because of that.
i really think i screwed myself. too keep it short, i erased My OS trying to install a custom ROM, then somehow deleted TWRP recovery, i relocked the phone trying to unroot thinking that would fix it (sorry im a n00b) now im stuck in bootloader and no recovery please help

that is what it says above my bootlaoder,
Try doing a ruu. You can do it from fastboot in the bootloader
Edit: or you can load a pg 83img recovery on your external sd card to reload your recovery and then you can get into twrp so you can flash a new Rom

Your other option is to fastboot flash TWRP. Once you've done that you can go into recovery and flash a ROM.

Sorry. Try this. Go here and download this file to your external SD card. Don't put it in any folders-it has to be on the root of your card.
http://techerrata.com/file/twrp2/jewel/PJ75IMG-twrp-2.3.1.0-jewel.zip
Name the file PJ75IMG.zip (make sure there isn't an extra zip extension or it won't work). Boot your phone into bootloader (with the phone off you can do this by holding volume down + power until the bootloader screen pops up). If the phone doesn't automatically scan for the file, you can use the volume keys to navigate to 'Bootloader' and use the power button to select. When you are prompted to do so just use the volume keys to choose yes and the power button to confirm your choice. If successful the recovery will load. Once finished you can boot into recovery from the same screen and flash a new ROM

Sorry, I edited my above reply. I'll be happy to tell you how to fastboot flash TWRP if you'd like. Quick question though, do you know if you have the newest touch panel drivers installed? If you took the OTA update to get the latest version of Jelly Bean, then you do.

Duh, crap! Okay, looks like you're going to have to run the RUU since I'm not sure you can unlock with the state your phone is in.

Trying.putting this on external sd. It's a ruu that can be flashed through bootloader. If that doesn't fix it then I'm not sure man. This may break chances of rooting but should fix your phone. :beer:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=35930652
Any chance with that? That should be a signed image flashable by bootloader. Otherwise you may need to unlock your bootloader via fastboot to flash it.
Man, this is rough. Hopefully we can get it fixed though

if you know a little Linux, you can try http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1948485. Otherwise a repair might be able to be done via JTAG. Other than that I am not sure. Maybe if you can unlock the bootloader and s off again you can atleast flash twrp and go from there. Sorry bro but I'm out of ideas.

Well thank you very much for your help, so is lunix a program i can download or is it an actual operating system that i would have to install?
Try to go to htcdev and unlock your bootloader. If that works then fastboot twrp then flash a Rom

Your best bet is to just wait a lil bit for someone with more knowledge of how to fix this comes through. I would just not do anything else to the phone for now cuz you don't want to make it worse.
