I have noticed a lot of people asking how to unroot their 3d and return back to stock after unlocking with HTCDEV. Here's how:
Step 1: Download the RUU for your phone:
CDMA: PG86IMG.zip
GSM: GSM RUUs
(There are more GSM RUUs than CDMA, so here's all of them.)
Rogers RUU link is here.
Step 2: Place the PG86IMG.zip (CDMA- GSM will be similar) on the root of your sdcard.
Step 3: Reboot to recovery and wipe everything (Dalvik, cache, data, system, factory reset)
Step 4: Plug in your phone and reboot to bootloader via ADB
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
Step 5: Boot into Hboot and allow the RUU zip to flash to the phone.
Step 6: Boot into fastboot
Step 7: Relock your bootloader
Code:
fastboot oem lock
Setp 8: Reboot.
Note: Your bootloader will say *** RELOCKED *** after you're done. That is how your carrier and HTC will know you've unlocked. There is no way to avoid this yet.
***** Make sure you put the CORRECT RUU image on you sdcard. If you have Sprint you're CDMA, if not, you're GSM. Don't mix the two up.
If you want to unlock your phone again after relocking, boot into fastboot and type:
Code:
fastboot flash Unlock_Code.bin
That's assuming you still have the Unlock_code.bin. If you don't, you'll have to re-do all the steps on HTCDEV
GSM RUUs from Football's thread here

I would contact Football and see if he still has access to it then. Google doesn't bring anything up for Rogers. Let me know if you get it.
thanks to bebolf for having it in his dropbox and posting a link here ive gone ahead and uploaded the Rogers RUU to multiupload ... see below link, will post in footballs thread in gsm forum..

Hey just to add to this. I tried doing this method, but I couldn't get hboot to update my phone. I got hboot 1.50 stock, cause I just got the phone last week. I have no idea why ur method wouldn't work.....I'm a NOOB HERE. I tried even flashing in recovery. When I also tried to "Relocked" my phone it wouldn't even boot past the HTC screen.
Well what happened to begin was I put a different kernel on my using flash image gui, and when I tried going back to stock via backup, some of the functions didn't work wifi 4g...etc. I knew it had to be the kernel. So what I did was I found this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1223979, and downloaded the Shooter_2.08.651.2_odexed_rooted-signed.zip complete ROM.
Thanks @xHausx for that thread you saved me
Then i flashed it. I rebooted back into the bootloader and ran the lock code.
Code:
fastboot oem lock
This time the phone booted. I used one of RUU .exe from Football's post
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1334473
and completely restored the phone to stock.
Idk if this helps any one or not, but this is how I got my phone back to stock without using the PG86IMG.zip and flashing in hboot.
Again noob here, but it worked.
I followed all the steps, my phone now shows RELOCKED, but I still have the superuser app. Am I missing something? How do I get rid of superuser?
Thank you
did you run the ruu after relocking
I downloaded the file from the OP, renamed it PG86IMG.zip and copied it to my sd card. I then boot into hboot and it loads the file. This is all after I relocked the phone. Is this correct?

Hi guys I'm fairly new here and was hoping you guys could help me out.
so i got my amaze a couple months ago from this guy and he told me had rooted the phone but then he unrooted it.
So fastforward to today and i'm trying to update my phone to the new android 4.0 . it downloads the update but then when it shuts off to start installing the update a triangle pops up with an exclamation mark.
it wouldn't go away so i took the battery out to restart it, which it did.
How do i go about fixing this . Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
and this was on my bootloader screen if it helps any
Unlocked

To receive ota's you must have a locked bootloader. Yours is unlocked.
Download hasoon all in one tool. Install the HTC drivers and then relock the bootloader.. Then you'll be all set to install them update

I think you need to restore stock recovery, etc before yo relock the bootloader and be on stock rom.

I'm back to being unlocked. How do i go about restoring to stock recovery??
Just download one of the stock ruu files, place it on your sd card rename it PH85IMG.zip and reboot into HBoot mode, it should restore your phone to complete stock.
What radio is on the new OTA update? Can someone who has done the update, post?

I have the same problem. I get a Main ver is old error when attempting to load the stock ruu, PH85IMG_Ruby_TMOUS_1.36.531.6_Radio_1.07.550L.04DC_30.64.550L.07_release_219373_signed.zip .
There is no way to get it back to stock with HBOOT on the ICS RUU you cannot go back, I got screwed over too. Unless you got S-Off before you went to ICS, that's the only way you can go back to stock. I think, that's what someone else told me, so give it a try but otherwise I think you are screwed, but I don't really know what I'm talking about. Can anyone confirm this?

Ok, I flashed via HBOOT the same version that was on the phone, PH85IMG_Ruby_TMOUS_1.43.531.3_Radio_1.08.550L.19DC_30.66.550L.08D_release_228638_signed.zip , and it seems to have accepted it, and going through the updates now.
Now, I will boot into stock, and attempt the new OTA ICS upgrade.
Will a restore work via CWM, that I took from the stock GB ROM above?
OTA ICS Upgrade = Success
I was going to pull the file off of the phone, but I started the upgrade and forgot. I could not locate it afterwards.
How did you flash via Hboot? Did you rename the file before you put it on your SD Card? Also do you have stock recovery?
finally got it
1. Make sure USB Debugging is enabled. Go to Settings -> Applications -> Development -> USB Debugging.
2. Download my tool and run it. If your bootloader is unlocked (most likely it is), on my tool, press "Boot into Bootloader". After you are in bootloader, run the "Relock Bootloader" command
3. Put the Stock T-Mobile 1.43 ROM on to your SD Card. Make sure it in the root folder. Rename the file to PH85IMG. Run the command on my tool to "Boot into Bootloader" It should scan for the ROM. If it doesn't (It may be in Fastboot mode, that's why) press the power button so it switches from Fastboot into HBOOT mode.
4. It will detect it and press the Volume Up button. It will flash the Stock ROM.

Unlock your amaze again. Follow the hasoon steps and you'll be able to unlock it.
once you unlock it download this file
http://d-h.st/OIC
once that is done rename it to "PH85IMG" and then put it into your sdcard
then follow these steps
"Run the command on the hasoon tool to "Boot into Bootloader" It should scan for the ROM. If it doesn't (It may be in Fastboot mode, that's why) press the power button so it switches from Fastboot into HBOOT mode.
4. It will detect it and press the Volume Up button. It will flash the Stock ROM."
once it's done flashing you'll be on stock and then you can update the phone to ICS.
TOOK ME ALL DAY! dont worry you'll figure it out.

So I'm a bit of a noob still with this kind of stuff so please bear with me I just need someone to link the latest GB RUU for me and explain step by step on how to relock my phone....Please if someone can help me with this I would greatly appreciate!!! Actually it would be great if someone could also explain how to install the RUU step by step from beginning to end for me I would love that please I would really appreciate it. Thanks!!!

Open terminal, cd to your adb and fastboot folder, and type fastboot oem lock that will relock the boot loader, as far as the RUU I can't help you step by step because I believe the GB RUU is a .exe and I have a Mac so idk, just run it and do what it says lol

You just have to flash the unlock token again you don't have to do the whole thing unless you deleted your unlock token.
If you flashed one of the ICS leaks, in order to go back to GB, you will have to be s-off or it will not work. If you are still on GB, then you have 2 ways to do it. You will need to have your bootloader locked and then download one of the 2.01.605.11 downloads HERE. Each one works a little differently. The one ending in exe is the full RUU that you will have to run on your computer with the Rezound connected witha data cable. The one ending in .zip can be put on your external sd card, renamed to PH98IMG.zip and will run when you reboot to your bootloader.
I used the Hasoon2000 tool kit. It has a relock button built in and is way easy to use with step by step instructions for unlock, root and s-off.

You should be able to flash the GB RUU if you only flashed the ICS rom. If you didn't flash an ICS leak, then you still have the GB firmware so should be good to go. There are some stock rooted GB out there too if those interest you.
EDIT: as mikey said..you need to be locked if you want to flash the RUU.

Wow thank you so so much. I have been searching forever for an .exe RUU for GB. It seemed like I was never going to find one. Thanks for the link man. I am downloading both right now. So as of right now, I have 2 .zip ROM files that I installed yesterday onto my external SD card. One is an ICS and the other is a stock 3.6 sense with android 4.0.4 i believe....Now when I change the name of the .zip file that I am now downloading, will my phone try and read the other ROMS on my SD card?? Or will it just read the PH98IMG.zip one since I changed the name of the file?

Ok yes, run the RUU, then you unlock your phone. When u unlocked your phone the first time, you had to flash An Unlock_code.bin file. Did you delete that? Or do u still have it? If you have it you can place it in your adb and fastboot folder, cd into that folder, and type
Code:
fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin
if you didn't keep it, you have to do the whole HTCDev unlock like you did the first time

I know what the issue is. You don't need to flash An ICS RUU, you just need the SD patch, since ICS and GB have different mount points for the sd card. You can find that patch in slimrom's thread, or the cleanrom de thread. try flashing that in recovery before you relock and ruu, if you havent already. And if you flash the ICS RUU you only have to do it once not every time you flash a rom
edit, too slow....

The ICS RUU is not an EXE its just a zip. You rename it to PH98IMG.zip and place it on the SD card and Flash in HBoot. You just have to make sure to to flash it all the way because it reboots twice during the process i believe
Edit: to make it clearer, the GB RUU is an Exe, but all the ICS RUU's are zips
Just some stuff that is in our RUU, you may need it and will save you from having to download 500mb+ .zip, just for one or two files.
If you need any other file from either RUU, ask and I will upload it.
To Install
1) Rename to PJ53IMG.zip (make sure you don't get PJ53IMG.zip.zip in windows..).
2) Place the zip file on the root (not in any folders) of your SD card. (not internal storage).
3) Boot to Hboot by holding Volume-Down and Power.
4) Install.
5) OR, pull file from .zip and install using fastboot.
6) YOU MAY NEED S-OFF TO FASTBOOT THESE FILES, YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.

Just some stuff that is in our RUU, you may need it and will save you from having to download 500mb+ .zip, just for one or two files.
If you need any other file from either RUU, ask and I will upload it.
To Install
1) Rename to PJ53IMG.zip (make sure you don't get PJ53IMG.zip.zip in windows..).
2) Place the zip file on the root (not in any folders) of your SD card. (not internal storage).
3) Boot to Hboot by holding Volume-Down and Power.
4) Install.
5) OR, pull file from .zip and install using fastboot.
6) YOU MAY NEED S-OFF TO FASTBOOT THESE FILES, YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.
Hey when I try and fastboot these files i get error: remote signature verification faile, completed. Does that mean it takes?
Thanks

any chance of an update to downloads for these ruu's?
Sir Please help
My Htc droid incredible 4g lte not booting up and stuck
what can i do
please help
So while trying to update to ICS my fingers were working faster than my brain (yes, it happens) and I selected a menu option while using Clockwork and, while I'm not sure, I think the option said something like, "format .. OS...something..." before I could fully read it (and stop my finger from pressing the power button), I pressed the power button.
The phone rebooted, got to the white HTC screen and stopped - stuck on the white HTC screen. I pulled the battery.
I Held down power and up-volume and got to the bootloader menu, selected recovery and Clockwork came up.
Couldn't "Recover" because it couldn't mount the SD card.
Couldn't mount the external SD card either.
Ok - tried a factory reset - Rebooted - up came the white HTC screen where it stays until I pull the battery.
I'm new at this (probably didn't need to say that, but...).
How Do I get past this point?
Is this phone agonner?
How do I load (anything) to the phone at this point?
Thanks in advance! I appreciate it.

Try using adb commands from your computer to push a recovery to your phone and go from there

If it powers on, you're not bricked.
Are s-on or s-off?
Make sure you have a card reader for the following.
The best thing for you to do would probably to flash an RUU.
First, download the latest RUU.
http://www.androidpolice.com/2012/0...ull-ruu-build-4-03-605-2-for-the-htc-rezound/
If you are s-on with unlocked boot loader, relock it:
Make sure there is no PH98IMG.ZIP on your sdcard. Delete if there is one.
Power off phone completely with battery pull.
Plug in phone to computer with USB.
Go to the bootloader menu with vol down + power.
Select fastboot.
On your computer, run the following fastboot command (do whatever you needed to do to use fastboot):
fastboot oem lock
After that is done, time to install the RUU.
Find the RUU you downloaded and put it on your sdcard, then rename to PH98IMG.ZIP
Put sdcard back, then power on to bootloader.
It should now scan for the PH98IMG and then ask you to install it.
Follow all the instructions to install it.
After you finish this, you will be back to the stock ROM with a locked boot loader.
If either s-off or s-on locked bootloader

Rezound still major messed up
THANK YOU for your help, I really appreciate your response. I followed your instructions and once the PH98IMG.zip file was on the SD card I loaded bootloader and it did scan for the file, but said "no file or wrong file!" Well, the file is there so I know its not "no" file. I've tried a couple of different PH98IMG files that I found on XDA but I guess the specific file wasn't the problem.
After it gives the error message it simple goes back to the bootloader and waits.
Unlocking the bootloader and then following your instructions did result in the file being seen and, what appeared to be, the installation process beginning - however when the phone reboots for the first time it just goes quiet and never comes back up. I waited for at least 20 minutes before I decided it wasn't just a long boot process.
I"m pretty sure there is NOTHING on this phone. I've verified there's nothing on the SD card besides the PH98IMG.zip file. Assuming I've completely wiped out the OS (and it is not on the phone) is the method you've outlined the right starting point?
Thanks again, and Merry Christmas

If you are S-on and have an unlocked bootloader, you will need to relock it before attempting to flash an ruu. Once re-locked, ensure that the PH98IMG is not a zip file within a zip file which is how they are usually uploaded. Attempt to unzip the files until it will not unzip anymore. That file that won't unzip needs to be the one you rename as PH98IMG and placed on the root of your SD card. Reboot to bootloader and allow it to scan. It will ask you if you wish to proceed and you will allow it. After some time it will reboot back to bootloader to flash radios and the rest of firmware. After that process and a 2nd reboot you should he back to stock, locked, and unrooted.

Also, it could be possible that your phone can't recognize the sd card so it needs to be formatted.

zip file contents?
Maybe I should ask what the contents of the .zip file should be? I did check the zip to make sure it wasn't a double-zip. There were two versions of the PH98IMG file i tried. One had the file (imagemate-3.60.exe) the other had the file(s) (boot.img and android-info.txt).
I did "relock" the bootloader prior to trying and it would not recognize the file. When it was unlocked it would see it, start the install process, then go quiet. So that at least tells us that the file is there and likely workable.
I can't seem to get past the "No image or wrong image" message. I've tried on 3 different cards (the original and two fresh cards) and I've checked to ensure the zip is not a zip within a zip.

You should download that file from Android Police. It should have a 'bunch' of files in it. I"m not familiar with imagemate-3.60.exe but boot.img is just the kernel. Rename the file that you download to PH98img, (as previously stated) put it on a good SD card and boot into bootloader. It should go.
How about telling us if you are s-on or s-off. I don't see where you've answered that question. Also, if it doesn't work, tell us what your bootloader screen says. That will give us some info to help you.
Merry Christmas....I've got to go to bed before Santa shows up. :laugh::laugh:
EDIT: I just downloaded the Android Police file and as I said, it has a lot of files in it. I'm not sure what you were playing with but i likely the cause of you problem. Get the right file, name it ph98img.zip, put on root of SD, boot into bootloader (you're locked, right) and let it do its thing. good luck.

One thing you need to know is that a PH98IMG file can be many things. It is only the name of a file that your phone looks for to use when booted into hboot. So it can be a kernel, an entire RUU (OS), a custom recovery or ROM... basically anything. It just means that item was packed into a PH98IMG file in order to run automatically off your SD card when the phone boots.
So you need to know what the PH98IMG file is that you are using or you might flash something you don't want that can possibly cause your phone to not work properly. In your examples above one is a kernel (boot.img) and I have no idea what imagemate-3.60.exe is. It sounds like you have not had the correct file.
Here is the global RUU you should run to get you back to stock with all the latest radios and firmware:
http://www.androidpolice.com/2012/0...ull-ruu-build-4-03-605-2-for-the-htc-rezound/
You need to be locked to run it so if you are S-ON, which it sounds like you are (don't remember if you mentioned that before), you need to use fastboot from your pc to do that, just like you did when you unlocked it with this command:
fastboot oem lock
***If you are S-OFF you should be locked again from that process already. But if you are S-OFF then confirm with someone to be sure it's safe to run the RUU, there's something about not relocking if you are on a certain hboot or you can brick it or something...***
Then put the RUU on your SD card and reboot the phone. Let it run through the RUU a few times because apparently it needs to do it a few times to get all the system files. Afterwards, if you want to root again and flash a custom ROM you will need to unlock again and flash a custom recovery and reroot.
It Works!
Not that I'm going to give you all the credit, because everyone kinda chipped in - however you DID provide the ONLY correct link to exactly what I needed! LORDY there are a lot of bad links being passed around. THANK YOU Ms. Feralicious, I totally appreciate your help.
... Everyone else as well - very generous with your knowledge and time and I will always love you.
Merry Christmas! Have a safe new year as well!

It's locked which means it's never been unlocked and it's s-on. A simple factory reset within the rom itself will suffice

Not sure what you're trying to do there, run an RUU?
Did you try a factory reset from the settings of the phone as Neo suggested?
Settings > Storage > Factory data reset
But back up anything you want to save such as pics, settings, etc... it will wipe everything.

You still needing help?
Where did you get the PH...img file you are using? Are you sure it's an RUU?
Did you ever try resetting to factory settings within the phone? You don't need to RUU for that, check a few posts up on where to find the setting.
