These images are very useful especially for people, who have HBOOT 1.5 that want to lock their bootloader and go back to Stock in order to get latest OTA upgrade.
Your contribution is much appreciated.

That's a good point! I'm on hboot 1.5. So I would have to unroot, update to new OTA, then HTC unlock again? I'm just trying to understand. I'm gonna try this route, if I can unlock/root my phone again.

Yes, this is the route to go. I myself have an evo3d with hboot1.5. my phone was unlocked prior the OTA update. I tried everything to get that OTA installed but no chance. The reason is that the radio within the OTA wont install because you are still S-On even though you are unlocked .
So I had to
1. Run:
adb reboot bootloader

2. Download PG86IMG_Shooter_S_Sprint_WWE_2.08.651.3_Radio_0.97.10.0808_NV_SPCS_1.31_003_release_219445-signed.zip from the OP

4. Run:

5. Reboot into system and update the HTC sofware from there.

I got to Step 5 and am now STUCK.
It goes in and says it is loading, then checking the PG86.IMG.ZIP file, then nothing..
It goes back to FASTBOOT, RECOVERY, FACTORY RESET, (which I've tried, to no avail), SIMLOCK, and IMAGE CRC.
If I reboot without holding down any keys, it goes back there again.
It says RELOCKED at the top. It also says I'm still S-ON. I don't know how to get back to standard factory E3D.
HELP!

Going to try this on mine today to get back to stock....hboot 1.50 the directions above are right on track
Hmmmm, possibly role back to hboot 1.40?? That might come in handy instead of loading ROMs via fastboot all the time, I like to switch on the fly, and I can't really do that with having to break out my laptop and run through cmd...
Any chance I could get someone to upload this to mega uploads for me? My work network blocks the site listed above. Just the full Rom if you could please.

As far as I know you cannot roll back hboot.
So far no you cannot roll back H-boot. But you can still flash on the fly. I use Flash Img GUI from the market to flash the kernel for the Rom, then I boot to recovery and flash the Rom. Works just fine for me even when switching from ASOP to Sense.
You can roll back hboot if you have s off

You are not bricked yet. The problem is PG86.IMG.ZIP. This is not how it suppose to be renamed. It should say PG86IMG.zip and not PG86.IMG.ZIP
If the downloaded zip from the OP does not work, download the file from the post #16 and you should be good to go.

Hi Everyone,
I have a Mobilicity Amaze 4G, got the OTA ICS notification and cant seem to update.
After hitting "Install Now" the phone restarts and shows a green "X" in the center.
I have to do a battery pull to get the phone working again and it loads with ginger bread.
I am on stock Mobilicity ginger bread, phone is rooted with S-on. Nothing else has been done to it.
What could be the problem?
Will the method described here work?

You don't see an icon name Amaze 3.2? With an A as the icon? When you do, double click on that, it won't be in the data folder, it will be outside of it. Unzip the contents of the zip file into an empty folder so you won't lose any of the files in between your downloads.

I'd advise you to have the ruu ready, once relocked, it's gonna be stuck on the bootloader, but since it's wind, just choose fastboot then run the exe file, it's gonna restore everything on the phone to complete stock, I'd advise you to copy the OTA file from your internal sd card's download folder, copy it to your external sd card, once the stock ruu has finished installing from your pc and reboots, do a battery pull, hold volume down then power on, should take you to hboot, choose recovery, recovery should give you a red triangle, hit volume up then power button. install update.zip from external, browse to the OTA file then hit the power button, it's gonna install, reboot two times or so, voila! You're on ICS!

Ruu is the stock image of your systems stock Rom used to flash the device back to complete stock.
Check in the dev section for the stock ruu, it should be an exe file, so you'll have to flash it via pc, you'll have to put the phone into fastboot, turn it off until you get the ruu exe file.

Does relocking the bootloader unroots the phone?
I didnt know installing an ota i got in notification bar would be this hard.
All i want to do is install the official ICS update mobility sent to me this morning.
I bought my phone rooted, but it is still on gingerbread. i never done anything to it.
Requirements:
1. Stock GB of whichever provider you choose to install from be it Telus or T-Mobile
do note that you can only install the ICS OTA file of the exact providers who's stock GB you have installed.
2. The OTA corresponding file, I'll provide links to both below.
3. An SD card.
4. S-ON users will have to relock their bootloader.

It doesn't seems so, the green x usually means you have the wrong recovery and since hasoon removed that from his tool we need to flash the stock recovery by restoring a stock ruu.

Okay, I think I found it, using hasoons tool, place this file here: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/19769336/recovery.img
into the data folder of the tool, start up his tool, then choose to flash your own recovery, it should select that file you downloaded and flash it, you have to do this via fastboot, after that, retry updating.

Thank you for the help so far, i appreciate it.
Just for clarification after relocking the bootloader the green "X" doesnt show anymore.
when i try to update after relocking the bootloader it gets stuck at the white screen that says "security warning relocked" at the top.
Should I still flash the recovery image?
What do you mean by "do this via fastboot"?
Should the phone be off while flashing?
Sorry I am just a little confused.

You're newer to this than I thought, awe brother.
Let's start over, I'll go look for the stock RUU for mobilicity, is your device from mobilicity or is it from another carrier?
Hi,
I am new here and this is my first post so forgive me if starting a new thread for this topic was wrong but I found my own situation slightly different from the others here who had the same problem.
I have a gsm unlocked rezound and was trying to get rid of the unknown sim error message at lock screen. I followed the steps mentioned on this thread --> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1882355. I rooted the phone, downloaded the apk. Deleted the .odex file and replaced the existing apk with the downloaded one and rebooted. Now, I am stuck at the lock screen with no icons. But for the other people who faced similiar issue, they were able to open the home screen. I can't. I can see pop ups for sms/mail. I get ring when a call comes in but I cant pick. I tried hard reset. Tried booting without sim/sd card. Still no luck. I tried connecting the phone to my pc but now my pc wont recognise the phone when its connected. I can see icon on top of the phone which says USB connected and I also see sync icon, but it will not go any further. I dont know how to get into the phone's menu now.
I may have bitten more than I can chew, silly me :crying:
If you guys can help me in any way, I would appreciate that a lot.

Flash my debloater, choosing the Sense option(will be brought to a widget removal screen if you don' use them all) & AOSP lockscreen. Disadvantage to that though, you will have to unlock to see the caller id when it rings.

Thank you for the quick response. I have downloaded the file. I know this sounds stupid but I am a real rookie. I don't know how to do the flashing or how to get to the AOSP lock screen. If you could guide me through the process or maybe give me a link where I can learn it myself, it would be great.
Essentially since you already have rooted, you will(should) also have a custom recovery (TWRP, AmonRa, CWM). Install it as you would a regular rom but without any wipes until after flash of the zip. Dependent on which recovery you will want to look up their FAQ/QnA on how to wipe dalvik/cache.
Once you get inside the script, you will see what I meant by "Choose Sense & AOSP Lockscreen".

Yes the phone was rooted, but I used a rooting software from google apps from the phone. After I downloaded that app, it rooted the phone and brought in an extra icon. I remember it as SU root something, but I didnt do it from the pc. So I dont have any recovery on the pc. I used to sync the phone with htc sync. Unfortunately, right now, my pc wont recognise the phone. I tried root explorer for android from pc, it wont recognise the device. HTC sync too will not. But my phone seems to know when a USB is connected, it brings the usb icon on top but thats about it. ((
Ok, best suggestion at this point is to follow the instruction in the OP for installing TWRP in the Rezound development section.

Thank you for the help buddy. I am glad you said its not. I dont know what I would have done if it had. This is my first android phone and I took it a week back. I was beginning to miss my iPhone . Unfortunately the link you provided wont help me because I have no way of restarting phone other than by removing battery. Even when in fastboot, the pc does not recognise the device even when device shows fastboot usb. I doubt if I can get past step 1 in that link.
I found that I am on Vigor H Boot 2.27.000 and Radio 2.22.10.0803r with S-ON. I tried to turn S-Off after reading and educating myself on android from this forum till now. But even to S-Off, I need to be able to enable USB in debug mode which I am not able to. Any suggestions ?
Device still not fixed
hi,
I took the phone to a couple of places to check if it can be fixed, No one was able to fix it thus far, Any other advice or suggestions to fix this would be great. Any admins/mods have something to add ? Please, I am desperate to fix this phone. Anyway of doing this ?
Have you tried flashing a different rom?
If he's S-on and locked, he can simply flash the latest RUU can't he(just to get the phone working again). From there someone can help him set up adb, and s-off.

From what they posted, somehow they don't have a custom recovery even though they are rooted?
Can you put a PH98IMG.zip file of a recovery (either Amon Ra or TWRP) on your SD card and flash it in hboot? Then flash a custom ROM the same way from recovery.
You can take the SD card out and mount it on your pc and use your pc to copy over the recovery PH98IMG.zip file.
And oh yeah, I see what Obaterista... was saying. You should be able to flash the latest RUU from hboot. Here's a link for it:

I was just trying different pages for help. Someone has mentioned that I should add the PH98IMG.zip as just PH98IMG and I shud not add the .zip. Thats the only thing left to try. I will post what happens when I do that.

Are you trying with the stock ROM ? If ure saving stock ROM as PH98IMG.zip, then try PH98IMG without the .zip typed in.

What you'll have to do is relock your boot loader, flash the RUU and then unlock again. From there you should be able to flash a recovery and flash a rom.

I am no expert to give u any suggestions but maybe if you could explain how it got bricked in the first place, someone might be able to give u a better solution mate.
I am having issues trying to either factory reset or update to ICS. I am still running 2.3.4, when I try to factory reset via the bootloader, nothing happens, I keep getting pushed back to the menu screen. And when I try to update to ICS, via the OTA, it stops on the recovery menu and doesnt reboot. I have relocked, and tried different methods, from which I could find on forums, and still nothing works.
I have tried to manually install the RUU via the SDcard, in the bootloader, after it checks the zip image, it takes me back to the menu screen also. I have tried to flash via the CMD, and I get FAILED: ( remote 12 signature verify fail). I need some help.
Let me know what you need to help diagnose my issue.
Thanks in advance!
try flashing the global ruu, its got the newest radios and hboot. u can find it over at android police. com. download it, rename it PH98IMG.zip if u r using a windows based computer rename it PH98IMG, put it on the root of your sd card and try flashing.

You have to run the RUU twice in hboot.

I unlock and tried the RUU, Twice. No luck, I cant find a stock ROM anywhere, i have searched, I found one link, but when you go there, it says all the old ROM have been removed from the site. Help on finding one.
I tried to flash the RUU from the recovery, but when it starts, it finds the update package, opens update package, then aborts. Its says E: can't open /sdcard/PH98IMG.zip (bad)

Gotta be flashed in bootloader. Maybe your ph98img.zip is a zip inside a zip. Rename it to just ph98img and try that

Ok good. Let me make sure I am on the same page as you. Your device is charged to atleast 80%. You have the RUU downloaded and placed on the root of your sd card, NOT internal sd. You have it named PH98IMG with the extension as .zip, so it looks like PH98IMG.zip
Now, remember how I asked you to flash the RUU in HBOOT twice. I did not mean recovery. HBOOT is the white screen you come to first as you are booting into recovery though. What you have to do is power the device completely down. Pull the battery to be sure. Next, put the battery back in and power up while holding power and volume down at the same time. The device will boot into HBOOT. From there your device will commence to scan for update packages, ie; the PH98IMG.zip. Once the device has found the package it will prompt you to either update or reboot. Of course go with the update choice. Now, the device will appear to run through some menus and such, it may even black out a couple times, but in the end it will go right back into HBOOT. When it does, IMMEDIATELY proceed to update again. It will again go through some menu commands and such but it will do it considerably slower. the screen may black out a couple times but again in the end it should end back in the HBOOT menu. When it has went back into HBOOT, reboot your device and all should be good.

Ok, Yes to everything in your first paragraph. But, when I power down and restart into HBOOT, it goes to the menu where it says FASTBOOT USB, and nothing happens, so I select BOOTLOADER, and it does the following:
SD Checking...
Loading...[PH98DIAG.zip]
No image!
Loading...[PH98DIAG.nbh]
No image or wrong image!
Loading...[PH98IMG.zip]
the blue loading bar loads in the top right
After that completes, it says:
Checking...[PH98IMG.zip]
the red loading bar loads.
When it completes it takes me back to the menu screen, and nothing happens.
OK, hold on, it is now doing the update. Weird, it has never progressed passed this point.
EDIT#1: ??? its working with a red bar? lol
EDIT#2: I don't like it having a red bar. It shouldn't have a red bar. I'd prefer you do the below first.
A red bar you say? You just solved your own problem. Redownload the RUU and verify the MD5 sum before you rename it. Rename it to PH98IMG.zip, check the md5 sum, yes it will be different this time. Then move it to your sd card. Verify the MD5 sum with your last MD5 sum check. Let us know how it goes
Have you had a little cry? Let me find a stock ROM
Sent from my Samsung Galaxy Note II LTE GT-N7105 using xda premium
Ok, so I was able to update to ICS. Thanks for everyones help. My only conclusion is the RUU I downloaded from Android Police from the Mirror #1 was a bad copy, I downloaded Mirror #3 and it worked.
Sooo, playing with rooting, been rooted for a couple days, flashed viperlte rom and had problems and decided to take it back to stock for now. Gonna be on the road and can't be 'experimenting'...attempted to go back to stock, by using the original RUU, and as I understood it, I needed to lock the phone back first. Didn't make sense as I was wondering how I could flash a Rom if it was locked back. After locking, when trying to go to recovery, it just comes back to fastboot. I can't get into the main phone--it boots to a screen, but no buttons work, although if i press volume up/down it shows it on the screen. What have I done?! I'll admit being a newb to phones, so please, some guru help me get back to something
Here's what fastboot shows:
TAMPERED
RELOCKED
SECURITY WARNING
Fireball pvt ship s-on rl
Hboot 1.15
Radio 1.53
opendsp v29.1.0.45
emmc-boot
It wouldn't read either of the mini sd-cards I used after rooting, so I can't just get use my sdcard with a new or original rom. I can't get to a main phone screen to turn on usb debugging, so no adp? Any ideas?

download the ruu rename it PJ53IMG THEN transfer it to your sdcard via your computer and put back in phone and boot to bootloader, it should pick up the PJ53IMG, AND ASK YOU IF YOU WANT TO CONTINUE, hit volume up to sat yes.(put sdcard in an adapter and put in your computer to transfer) Also you want 2.17.605.2 ruu software. make sure the zip is on the root of the sdcard(not in a folder, then make sure after you transfer that the file doesn't have 2 zips on it (PJ53IMG.ZIP.ZIP)YOU WANT ONLY ONE ZIP

Thank you for the response. Tried this, it loaded the zip, then went to 'checking' and after that, back to the bootloader. Never asked me if I wanted to proceed. When rebooted it brought me back to where I was, a phone which appears to be up--clock works, wifi is on, but I can't do anything. I feel pretty confident the img is good. Thoughts?

XP PC, formatted fat32, put it on root...just tried a different ruu, searched the exact string, the 2.0... and got it from a xda forum member, so I feel confident in the ruu. It did the same thing, loaded it, checked it for about 2 mins, then returned me to the loader. I noticed SECURITY WARNING is gone from bootloader now, FYI. What else can we try?
