Hey everyone... I've searched and searched and haven't found anything that resembles the problem I'm having... hoping someone can help! I've been recently flashing the RAGE Rom and have been enjoying it... I recently updated from Ver 1.5 to 1.7 but I had a lot of random reboots. Sometimes it would reboot while the phone was sleeping. I attempted to go back into recovery and do a fresh install, but every time I attempted to wipe data/cache the phone would reboot. I basically can't do much of anything in recovery without the phone rebooting. I want to resolve all the random reboots but I'm lost as to how.
I'm currently S-On but would be willing to try to go S-OFF if it will help resolve the issues I've been experiencing. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated! Thanks.
What does your hboot read? Radios, hboot?

Ok, i'm sort of a NOOB so I might need a little hand holding:
The baseband version in the "About Phone" settings say 1.22.10.0310r, 1.22.10.0308r. Is that what you need to know? Thank you for helping!:laugh:

Ok.. lol I can help you thru tomorrow or another day.yes Your baseband is radios.. your on the previous firmware according to what you left.. you can run an ruu and unlock again and flash amonRa again..from that point you can either stay s-on and try to continue to flash as you see fit. Or you can s-off from this point. I'd be more than willing to walk you thru it on gtalk. if not ill help you just run the ruu.

Here's the ruu http://www.androidpolice.com/2012/0...ull-ruu-build-4-03-605-2-for-the-htc-rezound/ relock your bootloader. rename download to PH98IMG put on sd. And boot to hboot. It'll find it and automatically and prompt you to update. You'll have to unlock and flash amonRa again after. But as I said I can could walk you thru it gtalk better tomorrow or another day.

YES!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH! I will take you up on your offer to help, sooner hopefully rather than later! I guess this is the kick in the pants I needed to finally be S-OFF!
I got a kick too when all the new kernels were being released.. lol so I did it and have helped about five or more people do it over gtalk. [email protected] I can help you pretty much any time. I work nights so my responses would be a little further apart then but I'm still available

Hello all,
I'm a bit new with the Rezound, I was pretty experienced with the DInc2 and DInc before it, but I'm wondering something, I've looked around a bit, so apologies if I missed a thread, but I haven't found a straight up direct answer.
I have the latest ICS leak installed on my phone, I haven't rooted or s-off'd the phone just yet.... so what I need to know is:
1. Do I need to be S-OFF to flash the GB RUU so I can get the OTA when it releases?
OR
2. Will the phone still pick up the OTA with the leaked version of ICS since the leak is still an "official" build etc.
Hello, i'm also looking for same info, only i'm like a super noobie, I have an RUU, INSTALLED the HTC sync, which failed saying "waiting for boot loader" and that's all she wrote. So I think I need to do something to the boot loader, only what i'm not too sure.
Thanks.

Good question, not new to htc, I came from the tbolt, but if I run the latest ruu as a .img file through hboot, how would I get back to the stock gb rom that's currently on my rez, or will I be able to accept the ota while on the leak?
from my knowledge you will be able to ota to the release as long as it is a higher version that what the current leak is.
and if that fails you could s-off then gb ruu and then ota up.
I would like to go back to a nandroid backup of GB ROM that I had before I updated my firmware to the latest ICS leak. I can get it to restore & boot up, but I have no access to my sd card, so I have none of my apps. I feel like I've tried everything - nandroid helper, old firmware fix - but I don't know what to do next. Any suggestions?
In my trials to go back to a ginger bread RUU based firm ware, the process gets stuck at waiting on the boot loader, the phone is apparently not recognized. It is also not seen by the HTC sync.
the boot loader has been locked I don't know what to do next. It doesn't appear I can flash anything from fast boot menu.
Thanks for reading this far.

Hello and thanks for your time looking into this.
I am on ICS Leak - and need to go back to GB - the thing is good but the battery is atrocious and it heats like anything.
So I went ahead and put the thing in boot loader and then ran the RUU after exiting the HTC sync. Now I am getting Error 140 - Boot loader version Error.
Ah the pain this phone is causing
I have one more question: Do I have to do this every time I want to go back to a previous backup (one that I did prior to updating to the ICS firmware)? If so, I'm wondering if it wouldn't just be easier to go back to GB firmware......
Ver Change for Error 140 - Android SDK CMD???
According to my research - I need to down the version using hex editor via ADB Shell. Dear God !
I have tried / installed SDK/ and Java Dev Kit. No Go - is there an app I can do this on the phone itself?
Thanks

Given I cannot downgrade back from HBoot 2.25.0000 is it not simpler to wait for the next RUU - whatever that is may over write this one?

You will need s-off to revert but as of hboot 2.25 it doesnt accept flashboot commands. Kinda stuck til a patched hboot gets released if you took the 5/7 leak.

Thanks for looking into this - so my option is to wait for a patched hboot 2.25 or wait for another RUU with an Hboot higher than 2.25.
I was wondering if I could install CWM recovery - and just flash myself an GB ROM. My issues with this ROM are overheating and battery chomping. I wonder if that will be helped with a GB ROM - supposedly more mature and efficient. If this can be done can you point me to a thread?

So I want to unroot my phone. But the unrooting guide (found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1671577) is several months old I believe. Also, in the guide he says that you can flash the RUU to a newer version but not to an older version. well the RUU's that are linked for download are 1.12 and 1.13. I am currently running MeanRom which is 1.22. Is this a problem?
The correct RUU to run is going to depend on your H-boot and firmware, not on the ROM.
Why in gods name would you want to unroot?

I understand that it is not related to the ROM. but the ROM I am running is based off of the 1.22.651.36 RUU. So I could't run a different RUU. And I am unrooting to see if I can possibly get 3g data back. I have absolutely no data even when my wife has full 3g right next to me. If that doesn't resolve it, then I need it unrooted so that I can exchange it. I personally wouldn't un root if I didn't think it 100% necessary.

Try updating to the latest radio version. It might fix your 3g problem. I believe flashing radios requires S-OFF or version 1.12 of hboot:

I would now like to try NILS Sense-less NeoMAX 2.0 [ICS De-Sensed 3.14.605.12]
Can someone tell me exactly what I need to do?

Actually, from your baseband version, you're on gingerbread firmware.
So you can either flash NeoMax with an old firmware patch, or update to ics with a RUU.
I recommend updating to ics firmware.

Yes update to the latest ruu first. It will make things so much easier. Be aware that you need to get everything off you phone before you start the process, it will erase everything except for what is on the external sd card.

yep, as stated by other memebers you are runing GB with ICS firmware patch. which is fine but your radios are out dated.
you have 2 options at this point.
option 1 is to update to the .12 ruu, the one before the global release. this will give you the ability to flash newer roms that are not built off the global release, which there are more options to flash. this method will keep you s-on and still enjoy all the wonderful roms out there.
option 2 is to update to the global ruu. this will give you the most up to date rom s, but the downside is if you want to go back to an earlier build of ICS like neo's non global rom you will need to s-off the device.
let me know what option you want and i can help you with a mini guide on updating.

I think 3.14 based roms still work on global firmware as long as you use the right kernel.

Man you guys rock!
What reason is there to stay s-on other than it is a bit trick to achieve s-off? I think everything becomes easier once I am s-off? So maybe I should just but the bullet (or the paperclip so to speak) and do it.
ASOP looks so interesting - when that is out and stable I most likely will want to try it - does that change what I should do in any way?

When you s off, you have to be on a rom matching your firmware. So ics rom on gingerbread firmware is a no go.

Again thanks to all taking the time to help - it is appreciated.
So I need to flash an updated firmware, I am sorry to be dense but firmware and rom are not the same? When I google 3.14.605.10 firmware download I get links to the OTA update that would seem to be the official rom.
Once I get that figured out I can Run Juopunut's S-OFF And then install any rom I want. .

HI so ive had a rezound for a few months, i unlocked my bootloader but never went s-off. Ive been running viper rez for last few months but its getting really slow and my battery is dying so i'm thinking about upgrading my phone to ICS firmware. How do I go along about doing that with an unlocked bootloader thank you!

You wanna relock your bootloader with command: fastboot oem lock then dl and rename to PH98IMG and run this ruu: http://www.androidpolice.com/2012/0...ull-ruu-build-4-03-605-2-for-the-htc-rezound/ when your done re-unlock your bootloader and flash your custom recovery again.

A friend of mine has given me his phone to fix and it's in a state, i'm at a loss at what to do now.
This problem is:
He tried to flash a new rom (it was rooted, S-ON and Hboot 1.53) he got stuck on a boot loop but the clever sod decided not to do a backup before the flash. He is now in bootloop without a Rom in sight that i can find to flash it.
Every other thread I have looked at has got broken links in so that's why i'm making a new thread for it. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks
Have you tried re-rooting and s-off, downgrading hboot And all that? (Start a fresh)
thisis50.com if its hot its here
I had that same problem before. What i did was flash an RUU exe file. Search for it here. This time be sure he makes back-up before flashing another custom rom and also better if you do s-off and hboot downgrade if you wanna flash jb or sense 4 above. Only sense 3.6 roms and gb worked for me when i had s-on.

Is there a link that you can give me to a RRU that will work?

Check for your specific carrier's RUU here. You also need to install htc drivers for the pc to see your phone.
Iv'e downloaded (and installed) both the drivers and the RUU, but every time i go to launch it, it comes up with the phone not found.
any suggestions?
Edit: Iv'e got it to recognize the device but now its saying "The ROM Utility cannot update your Android phone. Please get the correct ROM Update Utility and try again"
This is the correct utility though?

Did you download the right RUU that was originally installed on the phone or at least know which carrier you're with? Also make sure you download shooter_u if you have gsm phone and shooter if you have cdma.

Yeah, it's for the Vodafone carrier so i downloaded the corresponding RUU, i also made sure its the "ShooterU" one too, i'm at a loss again haha.
with your hboot you'll need an ICS RUU. unfortunately there isnt one for vodafone. your best bet would be to flash 4EXT recovery, turn on smartflash and then install a rom that can boot on 1.53 hboot (I'd recommend Yoda ICS as its known to boot on 1.53 s-on)
yeah.. as I said from previous post if youre having a hard time with Ruu exes. flash a sense 3.6 rom or Gb rom. it should work.
