Alright i need help badly. I consider myself an advanced noob in installing roms and kernals on a phone. I have the rezound. I unlocked it about a week about and went through the step by step instructions. I installed ziggys kernal. I was getting some bootloops but not to many until this morning. My phone kept bootlooping. I would take the battery out and put it back and it would do it again. I tried wiping the date cache and dalvik. Nothing. I then formatted all to ext3. After i did that it said i need to install a rom. I try to restart my phone and it just stays on the HTC screen. I tried to do the factory restore. Nothing. I have to put my sd card in after i get into recovery because when i go to the bootloader screen the HBOOT does something and then asks me if i want to do an update. I tried and hit yes and it did it then reboots but nothing. When i hit no it just wants me to reboot my phone, which does nothing for me. As it is right now my phone wont load. it just stays on the HTC screen. HELP please

Try this, but you should really search first.
I would try that but my phone will not boot. it will not go past the HTC start up screen

The other half of the problem is that it sounds like he formatted ext3 and wiped his ROM. So, he'd have to reboot back into recovery and restore a backup or drop a new ROM on the phone via USB.
Grab the RUU and start all fresh again.

Good point. I'm in class, so I just read it quickly. RUU sounds like the way to go.....start with a clean slate.
how do i get to the RUU
See "shipped Rom collection" sticky in dev section

Good Luck
This is one of the reasons I have not tried to hack this device. Although I may unlock/root my Rezound I'm not in a hurry to. It's really a great device. Just too expensive for me to maybe mess up. Especially since its our own fault if we do. Can't blame the carrier/manufacturer for not paying to fix/replace either. Hopefully you get it fixed soon. I know I wouldn't want to have to go through all that either.
i just installed the CleanRom. Ill let you know if this works
installed cleanrom but now my wifi says error and wont connect

You need to reflash the kernel in order to get wifi to work.

The answer should be in the CleanRom thread but as far as I know if you flashed Ziggy's Kernel, you should reflash it and that should solve the problem.
Oops, just noticed this was already answered.
i flashed a kernel and its all good now

It shouldn't. You can't brick with unlock S-On. If you can get to HBOOT, you are fine. And there is no way to overwrite HBOOT yet.

And does it need to be said that this phone has been out for less than a month? Maybe we should give the devs a chance to work out the kinks before we start flashing.
I *really* miss WiFi tethering that I used to do with my DInc, but I am not about to root in the first two weeks of ownership before I see good, dependable feedback from the community.
I love this phone too much.

Actually you might be able to mess up the partitions or something, but HTC limits our ability to **** up the phone pretty well

Not trying to knock you but I don't see the point in waiting. Flashing a rom is fairly straightforward and even flashing kernels is for the most part. I had an Incredible prior to this and I am absolutely in love with my phone...that's why I read how to do things properly and learn from others mistakes.
Take the plunge! It's great on the otherside

There is a wifi tether app that doesn't require root. Koush is the dev. I tried it and it worked. That was the only thing I would have needed root for also. You should be able to find it if you search for it. If not, I'll find the link.
Edit: I found the link

I unlocked and rooted my HTC Rezound using hasoon2000's all-in-one tookit v2.0 and was running cleanROM.
I am currently in a 'bootloop'. The phone will boot to the first white HTC screen without the red writing on the bottom and then it will turn completely black and will not go any further. I can boot in the hboot and recover AmonRa 3.15.
I factory reset the internal storage and nothing happened. I then reset the sd card and still no luck whatsoever.
I cannot get the phone to recognize on my laptop to relock the bootloader and am afraid verizon might notice..
I shaking and sweating a little bit, i don't want to be without a phone..
any help would be fantastic.
I would like to know how to get out of this bootloop and possibly reset back to factory settings.

going to need more info first:
1. does it say you have an unlocked bootloader?
2. you will need to take your sd card out of the phone, plug it into a pc, and download a rom, and place it on the sd card.
3. which hboot are you running at this point in time.
Will it boot if you take the sim card out? Try that

maybe try reflashing
I seem to be having the exact same problem- I can reboot into recovery and flash recovery and/or a new rom, boot into bootloader and flash boot.img, but still get stuck at white htc screen.
I had just finished a 45 minute tech call to Verizon, put the phone down for about 15 min, picked it back up to unlock and it froze. Would not respond to adb commands, finally pulled battery to reboot and bootlooping at white htc screen. Flashed both BAMF 2.1, earlier ICS backup, and factory reset from recovery.
Anyone have a suggestion as to next step? Flash RUU (I did update to 3.xx) again?
Thanks for any thoughts
Stuck at white HTC screen
I rooted my Rezound and flashed Amon. I made the mistake of trying to flash a Cyanogen ROM and now I'm stuck at the HTC white screen. I have no idea what to do from here. I can get into reecovery and fastboot. What are my options? Thanks for any help!
It sounds like there is no kernel. Try flashing sebastians kernel if ICS, Incredikernel if GB.

Thank you SO much! I'm going onto day 2 without my phone and it isn't fun! I flashed the kernel for Cyanogen as well as the ROM but clearly that didn't end well. Where can I find these kernels?

Thats what we are all here for. S-Off makes flashing so much easier since it actually flashes the kernel the same time you flash the rom and when you make a backup it will actually save the kernel with the backup as well. Well worth it.

And that is why I love the Android community so much. I've never been left "out in the cold" when I had a problem rooting or flashing ROMs, themes, etc.
Good to know about S-Off... I'm all about making the process of flashing easier. I'll take a look at S-Off tomorrow after work. What are the best instructions in your opinion?

I just used the unlimited.io site. The instructions are clear, and it shows a video of the wire trick, which is neat.
If you need help, just ask. There are all kinds of knoledgable folks around. Hell, I'm usually trolling around looking for questions to answer!
My job is that boring lol.
[edit] if you have it, use a back up sdcard for S-Off. The sdcard gets wiped in the process.

The only ROM I have flashed was Cyanogen.... flashed it from my SD card.
This is what I did that ended with me being bootlooped in the first place:

Okay I have look and seen all the info on this problem, however I have tried all of it and I'm still unable to see my SD card. I tried installing different Recovery's and different Roms, many different combo's, still nothing. Yes I did wipe EVERYTHING many times before each step. I am S-off and running Team Venom presents:ViperRez 1.0.3, and TWRP 2.2.0 for Rezound 7/12/2012 UPDATE recovery. I also got a new cord and thought it was bad again and took it back and got a new one and still nothing. I also have all the settings right for it to see my sd card. I have also plugged my son's htc Incredible 2 into the computer and it see's it just fine, so I know the drivers are there. Any help would be great, Thanks!

Is the option to have it set to disk showing up on your phone? does windows attempt to install drivers? try installing htc sync, then uninstalling it. the drivers will be left behind.

Yes I have it set to Disk, No windows doesn't attempt to install drivers( there already installed ), and I know because if I hook up my son's Incredible 2 it sees the SD on it.

And can your phone read the card, so your issue is just USB mounting?

A SD card reader will work, so I can get roms on it and take them off, and the phone can read it also. I have not updated to the latest RUU, so Im still on 3.14.605.10. Now I had installed NeoMAX 2.0 [ICS De-Sensed 3.14.605.12, and then I had to use Amon Ra to use a theme and that is where it went all wrong. When I tried to just flash back to the rom's base, I wiped and flashed a new NeoMAX 2.0, now I can't see the SD cards.

Now I have updated to the new RUU and installed my recovory and installed my rom "ViperRez 1.0.3", everything run's fine. I still can't see my SD cards when I pug into the computer. Do I still need to flash the "Update Patch"?

No need for the patch. Actually, you mentioned you were on the .10 leak earlier. If you ran that leaked RUU, you didn't need to flash the patch a while back. It was never clear that you were on GB firmware.
Anyway, to eliminate recovery, custom rom questions. Flash the new OTA RUU again and check things out in the completely STOCK setup. If you can't see the card then, and you are sure the drivers are installed, then I'd have to think you've got a hardware problem. Remember, check it out in a completely stock setup.

Yes I did check it out after I ran the New RUU, and I uninstalled the drivers and reinstalled them. I still couldn't see the SD card's.
If you are on ics firmware and an ics rom thats not aokp/aosp and you can see your sd cards i would get a replacement. It could still be the data cable or the.computer but......

No, you're not alone. Also on the new firmware running a post-RUU ROM. Also experiencing the need to manually remount sdcard2 after reboot. I suppose I will try all these things before I flash another ROM. Not worth the aggravation now.
