thanks i think its going to work its rebooting now, and i always the same problem when trying to install CM roms to do i need smart flash as well?

it doing it again /: can you guide me step by step? it just stays at the htc quietly brilliant screen and keeps vibrating

Try to flash the kernel image through fastboot.
Extract the ROM.zip that you have.
Get the boot.img out of that folder, and put it in you ADB/Fastboot folder
Use command "fastboot flash boot boot.img"
If you need help on that PM me.

idk how to send a pm /: cab you just tell me through here?

Wait very important question. Did yo update your phone to the stock ICS RUU?

recovery loop

Okay I think I have got my phone caught in a recovery loop. I go into cwm recovery to install zip from sd card but it just goes to the cwm logo and nothing happens how can I fix this ? I hope my phone is not bricked ?
Try a different recovery. CWM likes to cause issues. Try 4EXT or TWRP

How would I do that, If I start up the phone it just sticks on the HTC screen, and then if I go into bootloader and load recovery mode I cant choose going back to the rom that worked, it just stays on the cwm recovery logo when i try to flash back to the rom that worked.

Can you get to the bootloader screen?
If so, simply use fastboot to flash a new recovery

It was when I was trying to put a custom ics rom on it that it stuffed it up. Do I have to update the kernel version before I do that in the future?
Like If I am trying to update to this rom, I am not sure what this means "Virtuous Eclipse is currently based on the leaked HTC One S RUU 1.53.401.2" How do I get that on my htc evo

You don't need it on your EVO. That's the basic framework of the rom, you don't need to update anything
Since, like me, you're s-on, you need to extract the boot.img from the rom, place it in your fastboot directory, and use fastboot to flash the boot.IMG
Fastboot flash boot boot.img

[q] htc amaze stuck on logo-plz help

oK SO I GONE THROUGH AND TRIED TO FIND A WAY TO GET MY AMAZE TO WORK- I USED HANSOON TOOL TO UNLOCK AND ROOT MY DEVICE. iM ROOTED AND I DO NOT HAVE S OFF. eVERYTHING HADF BEEN FINR AFTER ROOTING THE PROBLEM SEEM TO START AFTER TRING TO M,AKE A NANDROID BACKUP IN TWRP RECOVERY AFTER IT FINISHED I TRIED TO RESTART AND ALL I GET IS THE HTC LOGO SCREEN- I HAVE GONE IN AND TRIED INSTALLING THE RRI FILES I BEILEVE AND STILL HAVE HAD NO LUCK DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY HELP U CAN SUGGEST TO GET MY PHONE BACK UP AND RUNNING- MY BOOTLOODERS ARE UNLOCKED I CAN GET TO FAST BOOT AND HBOOT- AND CAN GET TO RECOVERYBUT WONT LOAD
First of all you need to ditch twrp and flash 4ext recovery, especially if u are s-on. Then reflash the custom Rom of your choice, not an ruu.
I'm guessing u meant to say RUU where u said RRI files. To flash an ruu u would flash it through bootloader and would have to have a locked bootloader to do it.

have you seen this
Ninjistix said:
here's a way to return to stock RUU, you need the all-in-one toolkit from hasoon2000
download this file Here and rename it to PH85IMG.zip (this file is for ICS) the older one for GB didnt work for me
use the "Relock Bootloader" command on hasoon's toolkit to relock your bootloader (i received a security warning when doing so, but still worked)
place the PH85IMG.zip file on the root of your SD Card
turn off device and remove the battery. Reinsert the battery then simultaneously hold the volume down and power buttons (to boot fastboot)
Fastboot will detect the image file on your external storage. After it loads, accept the "update" - this will revert you to stock (including recovery and radio).

or this
Ninjistix said:
simple solution
Step 1: Boot phone into bootloader by removing battery then placing battery back in phone then turning phone on by holding VOL down and Power button
Step 2: use hansoons AIO toolkit while in bootloader to flash 4EXT recovery
Step 3: boot into recovery and use 4EXT's to mount your phone to the PC using their "toggle USB storage" feature which lets you access your SD card while in recovery
Step 4: place another ROM on your phone, and then disconnect phone from PC
Step 5: do a full system wipe before you flash new rom, Format DATA SYSTEM CACHE+DELVIK
Step 6: FLASH Rom you placed on SD CARD previously
Step 7: After flashing rom successfully go back into 4ext recovery or download 4ext recovery control, and make a NANDROID backup in-case you fk **** up later or again
STEP 8 ( HIT THAT THANKS )

Wait, you are confusing me now. Are you trying to flash a custom Rom or do you want to return to stock and flash an RUU? Two totaly different processes
And to answer your question you would use hasoon's toolkit to flash 4ext

Well since u are already unlocked and have a custom recovery u may as well try and get a custom Rom flashed since flashing an RUU will require u to relock your bootloader.
So start out by using hasoons toolkit and flash 4ext.

yes you can flash any custom ICS/JB rom as long as your using 4EXT recovery with smart flash enabled with S-ON.. but i'm not sure if there's any JB rom's for the amaze with DATA working, CM9/10 AOKP all have problems with the data , if you want JB you might have to go with JB ICS themed rom.. like Fourth Bar Infusion.. i think Speed Rom also..

[Q] What did I do wrong? :(

So, a few minutes ago, I come to XDA and decided it was time for me to flash CyanogenMod onto my already rooted HTC Amaze 4g. I searched "How to install CM10 on Amaze 4g using TWRP 2.3.3.0" and found " genius-tips[dot]com/update-htc-amaze-4g-to-android-4-1-1-cm10-official-rom/ ", so I decided i was going to go try it anyway. I took a video of me doing it just in case I messed up (Glad I did).
Well, here's the video:
youtube[.com]/watch?v=Lg0zCH22hDc
If anyone can help me install CM10 onto my Amaze 4g, please do. I also need someone to explain how I could go about restoring my phone (Sadly, I didn't backup my ****) to Stock. All, and any help is appreciated. I'm currently stuck in a boot loop
Sorry, but I can't post any links just yet
What OS were you using before you tried to flash CM10?
And are you S-Off?
And did you flash the boot.img?
The reason is...
1. You need to be on ICS Firmware first to flash anything ICS or higher
2. S-off allows you to flash the kernel at the same time after flashing.
3. If you're not s-off then flashing the kernel [boot.img] is necessary.

Then its because you are s-on. You need to ditch twrp and flash 4ext recovery, then enable smartflash in the settings in 4ext. Then flash the Rom. Use hasoon's toolkit to flash 4ext to your phone

Can you flash boot.img from fastboot? If you can flash the boot.img from Negalite zip. Can you enter 4ext recovery? Try reinstalling the drivers.

What recovery are you using? Download this and flash it from fastboot. Enable 4ext smartflash and reflash the rom. If it doesn't boot again extract the rom and flash the boot.img from fastboot. If you have any question quote me to get notified.

a big thanks bro, it worked. I earlier used clockworkmod recovery but as you suggested when i used 4ext recovery with smartflash enabled, it worked in first try, thanks a lot.:good:

So you have to reflash the 4ext and download a rom. You can find Here the 4ext recovery. Flash it through fastboot and after that you can enter 4ext and flash any ics sense-based rom and your phone will boot.

Hello
Did you flash the boot.img separately using fastboot?
Also I have read that using 4ext recovery is much better for this device while flashing, with its SmartFlash feature turned on. You can try flashing the rom again using 4ext.
