Relock your bootloader and flash the following RUU (1.17): HERE
This will wipe my phone totally right?
Will I be able to gain root back afterwards?
Sorry for asking obvious but not used to the single solid state memory for everything, and a bit confused by the partitions...

Are you having problem with scrolling? like when you scroll left it will rubberband itself or scrolling right does the same?, or does it click on stuff instead of scrolling?, this is happeneing to me and its really annoying, i did a screen test with *#*#3424#*#* and each touf=ch on the screen doesnt show up untill the next touch if you no what i mean, now, i dont know if its software related or a broken digitizer, i imagine if it was the digitizer then the touches wont show at all i suppose. This is the reason for the touch screen issues though for me, maybe you try and see if it does the same so we can rule out broken digitizer. As fopr the update, my phone wont pick it up, im thinking that its because my HBOOT is already 1.35.

You need to get a stock recovery flashed back on your phone first. Relock bootloader, then run the ruu, or try the ota first.

download the ruu and extract form the ruu. UPDATE: Thats weird, i have rom.zip, opened with winrar, i can extract all the files execpt the signed ones, i get error sayiong they are corrupt, so you cant get the recovery img from them, you need to find another source unless you knoew of a way to extract them without a corrupt error.

Why dont the checksums match with the related downloads on htcruu.com?, whats the point of putting the md5 checksum files there they dont match, im wisting my time downloading over and over, its the md5 file thats wrong.

Yes I am having a problem with scrolling - it clicks on stuff instead of scrolls. I have good reason to believe that this is a software problem because I have done nothing physical to the phone and the problem came only after updating.
Would you know how to downgrade the firmware? Or do you think a hard reset can fix the issue?

You can downgrade using ruu 1.16.401.6 with the newest version radio, it has the same HBOOT 1.35, but theres no point because thats what version i was on and i have a scrolling issue, when doing a screen test on black background, i can touch the screen, nothing happens, when i touch it again in a different place the first touch then registers, unless we can get back to 1.14 i think were stuck with it untill new update, best thing to do is report it to HTC they may say send them to be repaired or they may acknowledge the issue, i thought it was the digitizer but now you are the same its def software, if you say it was ok untill you updated. I got a seperate camera.apk download after updating to 1.17.401.1, did you?. Mine is a week old but im scared to replace incase i get one thats worse, like wif no good or bad signal an so on. Im going to factory reset the phone, then run ruu 1.17.401.1 again.

So i was kinda scared but i knew this day would come, VZW is pushing a update to all rezounds with H-boot 2.11. Concitering we dont have S-off yet this usually wouldnt be a problem but H-boot 2.11 breaks temp root. I have been using it for a while and it fails to push SU.
Just a warning so no one gets stuck without root
What about the people who are fully unlocked with perm root ? What happens if we run the update
Update failed in recovery for me. I've deleted some bloat though.

As far as I can tell, the update will not run. I let it download to my Rezound and then it auto-restarted after 3 minutes. Booted into recovery and said update failed. I rebooted from recovery and once booted up, I got a message saying "No new software update available" or something to that effect. Clicked "Finish" and since then, my phone has been working like before. From what I just experienced, there is no harm to your phone if you let it try to install, but nothing will happen either, so there is no benefit.

If that is the case then we could get root back and get back on cusom recovery, hopefully someone who has accepted the OTA will see if they can unlock it.
I'm trying to get back to stock and test to see if we can unlock but It takes forever to get back to stock.

I'm not entirely sure but if you are willing to experiement that would be huge.
it does update to 2.11 hboot, so the question is can you then do the unlock and root again.
i think you need to be on stock recovery to the update to take.
but dont hold me to any of this.

OK, well I can't do anything here from work, so when I get settled at home later tonight, I will see what I can do. I don't mind losing root until someone can figure out a workaround for those stuck with 2.11 hboot, mainly because a custom ROM is the only benefit I use from root at the moment. I can't figure out tethering to my Transformer Prime for the time-being anyhow, so losing Nils' ROM is a hit I'm willing to take for a bit.
If someone else does not figure out what you need before later tonight, I will do what I can.
By the way, it would help if you set up some steps for me. Like, do you want me to restore stock recovery, then check to see if stock recovery and custom ROM lets me install the update, then if it doesn't work, go back to stock everything and see if it works, then if it doesn't work go to relocked and see if it works? Just lay out each operation you want me to do to test your theories. I know far too little to be making up my own procedures. Inevitably, I'll finish and people will say, "Well, what about... and what about..."
I just don't want to waste my time or yours.

I need some help, and as I always say I don't ask for help unless I really can't find a solution. I tried unlocking my bootloader using the HTCDev method, but when I try to flash the unlock code bin file it gets stuck saying its sending and never moves. Same happened weeks back with my HTC Mytouch 4g Slide and I had somehow got it to work after fiddling here and there. I have HTC Sync uninstalled (I even reinstalled it to uninstall it again and keep the drivers) and I even eliminated my PDANet which seems to cause issues in situations like this. Rebooted my computer literally over 10 Times, same bull. I just can't remember how I got it working on my MyTOUCH. SO...I'm on hboot 2.09 and was wondering if these files would downgrade the hboot or something. All drivers seem to be proper, so I don't see why I'm having issues. I'm familiar with the adv and fastboot tools, I even made the android folder on the main harddrive directory that every post recommends , have the unlock_code.bin there but its the issue of not pushing. I have an old PC but if it worked on my MyTOUCH at one point I doubt it has anything to do with it.
So I wanted to know if its possible to downgrade the hboot to use a different method.
The method of rooting the phone is the same regardless of Hboot, so downgrading won't help you. Click the link in my sig and go to the section that contains the bootloader unlocking tools. Click on the WinDroid toolkit and see if you have any luck with that, instead.

Not root, unlocking the bootloader. It says Sending and never does a thing. It should say Okay immediately after pushing the file but its not doing anything for me. Its supposed to quickly give you a disclaimer on your phone to select whether or not to unlock the BL, but all my phone does is sit in fastboot mode. So I wanted to know if these stock restore things can downgrade the HBOOT as well so I can unlock it in a different manner instead of HTCDev's method. I've been stuck with a locked bootloader for a week since purchasing this phone. My MyTouch4g slide had the same issue but I had done something that got it going, in this case, I've tried everything. Also these self made executable programs like WinDroid give me a "not a valid Win32 application" message on my laptop. They just won't run at all.

There is no other method to unlock the bootloader aside from HTC Dev. Doesn't matter what Hboot version you're on or what software version you have. Even programs like regaw_leinad's toolkit uses HTC Dev-it just automates the entire process.

For the past 24 hours i have been dealing with my phone.
Trying to s off my phone i rooted and unlocked it via usual methods, finally reaching to j.bear wire trick part of the cmd. however upon reaching the wire trick part my phone would not succesfully complete the wire trick. I would get the still sober.
So in a mad rage i cleared system storage did a factory reset and went in recovery and did a superwipe.
This uninstalled my OS:crying:
Now i am stuck in this limbo between my being unlocked and loading the juopunut arrow screen and when i relock it i just keep getting back to bootloader. I was able to install a stock rom deodexed however after it finally finished installing it went right back to the juopunut black screen, I have a backup boot from when installed stock rom deo. but i wonder if that can do anything. Please help! i have not used android in about 3 years. I was on a windowsphone and i'm still very much used to that style so that is possible for my mistake. I got the Amaze 4g yesterday and i don't want my money wasted.

it may be possible. i do have access to the boot loader files however the only way i would be able to upload anything onto the SD would be to flash cwm..... i'll try it though
also since i know i left it out. I'm running tmous and the only reason i really did all this was to get rid of bloatware -_-
I am stuck at the black jbear screen with the arrow facing the phone.
You don't need to S-OFF to remove bloatware.
Good luck.

PROBLEM SOLVED (for the most part)
Thank you all for your help but i did discover that the only way to get myself off the constant switching between the jbear wiretrick screen and the bootloader loop was to use a wire from inside a telephone cord and complete the s off (even though it failed somehow) from there i had to manage my next issue of the constant bootloader which was solved through a matter of relocking my device, finding a original stock recovery file then having the amaze all in one kit flash the proper rom back to my phone.
Here's a tip for the next time you do the wire trick.
Use a metronome (or a website that uses a metronome ) and set it to 34 and use that rhythm and remember to only tap it twice.
Hey guys,
I was running the latest Viper rom. Every great once in a while the phone would just turn off. I could get it back fine and this happened about 5-6 times. Today the phone got stuck in a boot loop. I figured something went wrong.
I attempted to restore the phone to stock using the RUU thread found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2152993
I restored it once fine, said it was good. Phone only rebooted over and over. The HTC logo came up 3-4 times then screen went blank. So I flashed again. Same thing, nothing.
Now I had been playing around and think I updated my radio. Now the RUU from that thread above says it cannot upgrade my phone. I can get to fastbook and lock and unlock the bootloader. I did install latest TWRP but it never enters recovery. I had hoped to just install a basic rom from the 2.04 update and be done. But I cannot get into recovery.
I'm stuck and don't know what else to do. Is there and RUU file like the one above for the new 2.04?
I still think something else is wrong with this phone. Somehow doubt VZW will take it back and exchange.
S-ON
Phone displays HBOOT-1.33.0001
RADIO-1.01.01.0110
Any ideas what I can do next please?
I think the radio got updated when I tried to do S-OFF. Instead of an error at step 3 it flashed. Now I've gone back and tried it again and though I get the proper errors is still shows S-ON. Maybe this isn't even needed. I think my days of tinkering with Android should be over. I can follow guides and such
When I try to enter recovery for TWRP I get a lot of colored lines. Going to try reflashing that and see what gives. I feel that if I could get into TWRP and get a rom file on the phone since I cannot get into Android I might have a chance.

I think the radio got updated when I tried to do S-OFF. Instead of an error at step 3 it flashed. Now I've gone back and tried it again and though I get the proper errors is still shows S-ON. Maybe this isn't even needed. I think my days of tinkering with Android should be over. I can follow guides and such

Did you take the verizon update as you mentioned 2.04? If you did you will have to wait a bit yet to root again. Your only option would be stock verizon. Their software update basically closed the previously open window. If not...You HAVE updated radio per the # you posted, not sure if that really matters with regard to recovery. It seems like you have compounded many issues. I would try relocking bootloader and flash stock RUU again. Try to get back to stock verizon. If that's a no go, would try reflashing old radio and try stock ruu. How are you getting to try bootloader/recovery, turning on phone holding down vol button? Last ditch if it's says s-on and locked, I think you would be ok to try for a new phone.
I did not take the OTA from Verizon. I never got any prompt for an update. I did the updates for Viper that turned I think just turned that off.
Getting to bootloader is fine. I can lock it and unlock it fine. I know the RUU only loads if locked. I know recovery can only be installed if unlocked I believe. And yes I do that from vol down plus power button.
If I use newest TWRP recovery just gives a whole bunch of colored lines. If I try 2.4.0.0 I can see TWRP come up briefly then the phone reboots again.
The RUU exe file just now gives error 158. Basically it thinks it is not the correct ROM
I found the 1.15 radio but it won't flash. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=38379254&postcount=19
Just gives error of FAILED remote: 92 supercid

Is there a boot.img for the ruu? Maybe the previous boot image is still directing the process, a thought at least. Also that error 92 cid MAY be the issue, Do you have the newest one on (cid)? I had a lot of issues getting s-off and had to run supercid again to run the process after several error 92 messages. I would look at the whole s-off thread in original dev section maybe some answers in there or a direction to head in.

Can you get to fastboot? adb can communicate with the phone? Says in red fastboot usb? Also how are you doing RUU, assuming your using executable from your pc? Forgot to ask..
Yes I can get to fastboot fine. I do a "fastboot devices" and it is read. adb doesn't seem to do anything though. The RUU is the .exe I found.
For the cid I did the old one so mine reads all 1's. I didn't think I could so the new cid as I cannot boot into Android at all.
Ok success!! Yes.
I did the S-OFF directions once. Nothing, no change.
Did it again this time it booted to factory rom.
I am S-OFF cid is all ones.
I got the prompt for the OTA update, took ot, phone rebooted to recovery, TWRP, then nothing.
Wifi not working, I know I read about that so looks like I have a little more work.

Not sure how you got there s-off should have all 2's....but it sounds like progress. If you are back to recovery and have a rom to flash in your phone that's great...but you'll need adb working to flash the image file that's associated with it, that will likely fix your wifi issue as well. Even with S-off most of the roms still need to have their respective image files flashed but I am unsure about stock RUU, someone with more experience may know that answer and can maybe steer you in the right direction...

If you have a custom recovery then you can't install the ota. If you want the ota stuff you can install the Rom kernel and radio from it.
As far as wifi not working, just flash a kernel, right now it sounds like you have the modules from one kernel and the boot.img from another.

You don't need all 2s to get s off, you can do it with all ones without a problem.

BTW There was nothing wrong with your phone, it's just that when you restored, you needed to flash the boot.img from your rom that you restored. It was most likely a kernel issue that we could correct with viper.
It sounds like you just need to install the matching rom and boot.img. If you're s off, just fastboot flash the boot.img for whatever rom you currently have installed. For the OTA update, you can install the radios without an RUU if you're s off.
I ran for several hours and several reboots on the RUU .exe file. When I downloaded a custom rom from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2150262 - That fan fine for an hour or so. Then boot loop over and over again. Thankfully I made a backup in twrp. I restored that and all is well.
I can't stand this factory rom, the part that really annoys me, besides the VZW bloat, is the recent apps button. For over a year with other HTC's I am used to making that the menu button. Had that in the custom rom.
So it looks like that rebooting loop just means I need to fastboot the boot.img?
I go back to the rom I linked about and fastboot the boot.img. I really liked viper rom but am going to stick to stock that is rooted and debloated.
My cid is all 1's since I did that before all this OTA came out. I did that about 3 weeks ago the day I got the phone.
Thanks for the tips. I'll let you know what happens when I go back to the rom above.

Sorry about the 2's info but read that the older cid apk would no longer work (from thread below) and myself put on the new one which yields the all 2's. Bottom line, glad you made progress, hopefully problem resolved

Have an evo 3d with soff hboot 1.5 running P.A.C Rom or Negalite about a third of the way down the screen, when in portrait, there is no capacitative touch.. When I try to touch anything on that portion of the screen my touch reacts with the quadrant immediately above or below that "blank" space. So in order to get around the issue I have to either scroll (if I can) what I want to touch to a different region or turn the phone to landscape..
I hope this makes sense..
Any help is appreciated.. Thanks in advance..
Wasabi..
Sounds like hardware issue(digitizer?)
If I had an issue like that I would ruu and see what happens

I should add that I don't have this issue when in recovery (4ext).. where I'm able to touch any line on the screen without issue
RUU ?

Correct me if I'm wrong but wouldn't RUU take me back to factory ROM... So I'd have to re-lock the bootloader to avoid bricking the device?
Thanks again.

You can use it directly without relocking since you are soff

I am on VM, so not sure about sprint, but there is a pg IMG floating around(or you can make it yourself if you have the ruu program).
Make a nandroid
Flash the pgimg file in bootlader
You will now be stock ROM and recovery
Soff is not affected
Flash recovery via adb
Restore nandroid or flash from scratch

I would guess that youre maybe using the updated screen digitizer firmware maybe? try flashing a sense Rom (version 3.16) and tell me if that same issue occurs.

Thanks again.. that didn't work.. I'm back to the stock htc rom and am still having the same issue.... It's weird because I don't have a problem when using 4ext touch
*Update*
Thanks to this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=20791773&postcount=40 by Landon4444 I was able to get into HTC diagnostics and run a a line test..and determined that I was not crazy.. Not sure if it was a bad digitizer but definitely a software issue. I chatted with a sprint agent and he remotely reset something.. I'd love to know what they did, if anyone out there knows, I'd love to hear what that command was so if it ever happens again or anyone else can benefit from this experience.
He made me shut the phone off and ran an update. Now it's fixed.. Kudos to Sprint customer service for coming through once again.
