So I originally unlocked on GB firmware. I'm going to go flash to the .12 ICS RUU and want to unlock it again. Can I use the same Unlock_code.bin from when i unlocked before? Or will I have to get a new one?
Possibly. They eventually expire but it won't hurt to try. Worst that can happen is it doesn't work and you have to get a new one.

This is my first time rooting/unlocking a Rezound. Where do I get the unlock_code.bin file in the first place?
From htcdev.com make an acct.. select unlock bootloader and follow the instructions

Zips that flash boot images and zImages are attached. Just put the boot image or zImage in the kernel folder inside the zip and flash.

Hey con, now that we are getting s off, has anyone pulled the radios from the different updates? Think the latest radios are causing a lot of my increased temps on the phone.

No this in not the S-off method. This is just something you are able to use once you gain s-off. Check the general section for the s-off method.

What exactly are these? what do they do? edit:nevermind, i figured it out
Is this to replace the HTC image?
You can drop a boot image into it and it will flash it via recovery. It is more of a template/reference for rom/kernel devs now that we have S-OFF. However, it can work for the end user if you put your boot image inside it.
Hey Con,
I'm running stock GB. What command would I use to make a copy of my boot.img in case I Bork my s-off attempt?
Thanks in advance.
Edit...Never mind I got a copy from scottsroms.com
I used to be a developer like you. Then I took an arrow in the knee...
Just curious, now that i have s-off is there anyway i can get tampered off of my bootloader?

only if you downgrade your hboot to 2.10 or 2.11, and to do that you must be aware of what else you have to do in order for that to function correctly with the rom you're using and radios installed on your phone. It may or may not be worth the effort, depending on your comfort level.
if you flash the boot they gave you it will say something different

so, i just flashed the ics ruu, and now my hboot says tampered. should i worry, how do i fix it if it is an issue
I'm assuming your unlocked, even if you relock it will say relocked, tampered cones from having a custom recovery and ics. I have a stealth hboot it requires s-off but will make it look stock for warranty issues.

You got off easy. Sometimes it can get a little nasty in here when you ask an already answered question.
Everyone must still be happy about S-Off or the new leak or something.
I was trying to unroot to stock today and after relocking the bootloader I ran the ruu.exe. I got a bootloader error and the install failed and I was stuck at the bootloader til I unlocked again and instead viperrez again. What causes this error? Do I need to flash the setmainversionlow zip? Any help would be great.
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using Tapatalk 2
Make sure you relock then Try doing the RUU from the sd card. Rename it to PH98IMG.zip and boot into hboot then just let it do its thing (30 mins or so)

No problem, I didn't know it was a pesky mainver error or I could have told you that keep that setmainverlow.zip though, it comes in handy

Don't accept the update until you hear from other people what happens. Many times something like that can make you lose root but not always. So be daring if you wish, me no.

HTC (and/or Verizon) have some nerve getting my hopes up like that.
Yeah a few people pointed out it seems fishy because you can get the app in the play store and it works fine before the ota

I have never heard of an S-Off preventing OTAs on any HTC device. I know if you are on a custom ROM, OTAs from Verizon will not be pushed to your phone.

WTH kind of update is that? I mean seriously, an update to a accessibility feature that you can get from the play store if you were even interested in such a thing??? SMH
Maybe they locked the gsm part of the phone has anyone tried a different network after the update?

Just for sh*ts and giggles, I locked my device back up, performed the RUU, went back to S-On and then took all the updates up to this new update and then tried to Moonshine again...it was successful. I'm back to S-Off, unlocked and 2.07.605. Apparently, Verizon didn't fix the exploit in this update. So unlike them.
I'm stock and downloaded the update. It havent installed it yet. Where do I find it? I can upload it if anyone wants to take a look at it.

I'm rooted and S-Off but on the stock rom still. I'm not going to temp fate and try to download the build OTA from VZW, I'm just hoping they don't try to automatically push it!

Explains the htcdm error I was getting this morning. On a custom Rom. I never plan on taking any Verizon updates again. Last one bricked my phone (2.06) glad I was able to eventually moonshine and get off their horrible software. As far as the sense 5 update coming I could care less. Been running a sense 5 Rom since the release of tranquil. Wouldnt be surprised to see the new one Rom ported over very soon. My bet is we see it before the update.

u can try this, date/com.androioid.providers.downloads/cache/, if u cannot find the ota file in SDcard/Download/
looking forward to uploading, thank u.
I didn't find it in either folder. Ill run moonshine tonight since its downloaded and get root. Maybe its hiddden in a folder that I can't see as a non root user.
