Ok so I unlocked my bootloader using HTC method which I guess by now everyone know does not give you s-off. I am also unable to load any recovery either using fastboot or downloading right to my sd card. Teamwin is not working everytime i try to upload it fails. and clockwork will not work for me with fastboot.
[But if anyone can help me is it possible to flash roms on my phone since all I have is unlocked bootloader not being able to run a recovery is it possible to flash roms by putting them on my sd card? if so someone please help me./B]

I'm not sure i am rooted. All I did was unlock the Bootloader. I was unable to flash a recovery thats why I'm not sure if I am rooted. When I hit the volume down and power it takes me to the fastboot skreen. it says unlocked at the top but I still have S-On.

I was unable to do this I cannot seem to get to the tools section in the command window I even tried clicking and draging the file right to the cmd prompt but it fails to take me into the file. So i even tried putting both downloads on my SD card but still wasnt able to get to work. I guess I'm just going to wait for revolutionary to find a solution. I do thank you for your help maybe its just me who cant seem to be doing something right. I am a nooby but i believe I am doing everything right but obviously I am not and i am doing somthing wrong.

Uh? what command prompt,tools section??????
What you did? You need to install Flash image gui app from anywhere. Its an apk app to be installed on phone
I wrote clearly again on what to do....
what i told you is this:
Be sure you are rooted with hboot 1.50
If you want to flash kernels and roms without using PC then just follow these steps:
1.Copy any ROM.zip (Zip file of a valid ROM you downloaded..... it maybe from 95mb to 410mb of size) and recovery.img (link given below) to root of SD card.
2.Download and open Flash Image GUI and select recovery image option and flash the recovery.img by using flash image button (also check wipe dalvik & wipe cache) Then it will prompt to reboot and tap no.
3.Then select kernel image in Flash Image GUI and Select the Rom.zip that you copied to SD Card in above step and flash it using flashimage button (also check wipe dalvik & wipe cache) .Then it will prompt to reboot and tap no.
4.Then switch off your 3vo manually.
5.Then boot into bootloader by pressing volume down+power button..
6.Select Recovery and press power button and recovery will boot.
7.In recovery go to wipe menu select wipe cache , wipe everything ,dalvik etc
8.Then press go back and select flash zip from sd card and select Synergy_3Dvo_Superwipe.zip
9.Then again go back and select flash zip from sd card and select Synergy_Format_Data_EXT4_Optimized.zip.
10.Then again go back and select flash zip from sd card and select the same ROM.zip.
11.Finally reboot the phone and voila!! you got it to workwithout PC.
You could flash any rom Sense/Aosp
Make sure the ROM.zip file is a valid sense/aosp rom.
Here are the files you will need:
The recovery.img is here http://www.mediafire.com/?n72emuv5a1c00sd

or you can flash revolutionary's version of clock work mod and after that flash the su file which give's you root and this has to be done before you can move on to anything els
After sucessfully getting S-OFF with juopunutBear's wire trick.. I cant get past the black juopunutBear screen
ive tried recovering twice using 4ext..as well as just doing a full wipe except sd and reintstalling the rom but at reboot im right back at the J" screen.
Admittedly I am very green at this process. I took the steps one at a time ( all to try in flash the faux kernel )
So if anyone can or has encounter this problem and knows of the proper steps to get back into the normal boot pls help
much thnx in advance
connect your phone to pc & run again juopunutbear.That will fix it.
nothing changes it just informs me that the device is already s-off'd and then prompts me to exit
rebooting the device brings me right back to the black screen with the juopunutbear img
Try using Hasoon's AIO tool. You can add the kernel there and flash using his tool. It's been a while since I got stuck at that screen but I do remember that his tool helped me get out of it. I'll try and see what I find and post.

You could flash a RUU, then flash a j-bear boot, then flash a recovery, and then either flash a ROM of your choice, or flash a superuser package to get a rooted stock ROM...
or you could use this tool. I made it a while back ago, and this should work in your situation. Be sure to follow directions.

If youre still javing the problem this will fix it
if you can go to bootloader you need to connect the phone to pc, go to fastboot ( should say fastboot usb)*Go to controlbear folder (from where you ran controlbear to begin withon you pc then open command window in it (hold shift and right click, that willopen command window rigjt there and then*when you get into it you need to enter:
"ControlBear.exe -f" no quotes or "ControlBear f" notice the space after the exe !
Lots of peopke forget to put it in and say it didnt work.
I presume this will fix the problem
im new to this whole rooting thing so please help a noob out.
So i unlocked the bootloader but unfortunately i tried to flash a rom while S-On; So now im stuck on the HTC screen. I tried to do the PH85IMG.zip thing but it doesnt seem to do anything. I would really appreciate any help guys (it sucks using a flip phone for over a week.)
the amaze is the tmobile version
I'm no pro but I have rooted and done all things root to 3 amazes. So you unlocked the bootloader. Did you flash a custom recovery? After that you should have perma rooted the phone by flashing the su.zip thingy. After that you should have preformed a backup. Then flashed the Rom. Take. The boot.IMG from the unpacked Rom placing it in the tools folder in androidsdk then flashing it in fastboot. This is how I do it. Always worked for me. In detail what did you do?
Edit. I also have s-on. Both on my girls amaze and my one s. I'm not sure if some roms require s off but I never had a problem flashing roms. Kernels are always easy using fastboot method.

the order of what you just described doing some how seems entirely wrong... let me make a few corrections to what you should do
if you haven't flashed a custom recovery place your phone into bootloader mode (by removing the battery then reinserting and holding vol down + power button)
then enter FASTboot (by using the power button in the bootloader)... use hasoon2000's toolkit found Here in the second post (don't forget to hit thanks to his post)
flash 4EXT recovery, once in 4EXT check to make sure smart flash is enabled
once in 4ext recovery do a wipe DATA/FACTORY, followed by formatting SYSTEM then wipeing CACHE then DALVIK CACHE
after doing that proceed to trying to flash your rom again, if it fails download another ROM and use the MOUNT USB feature in 4EXT to mount your phone to the pc while in recovery and place another rom on your SD card to try and flash
overall the steps to flashing a rom on a "NEW" phone is Unlock Bootloader > Flash Custom Recovery > Flash SU for ROOT > BACKUP!! > Full WIPE > Flash ROM > BACKUP! if you require more info feel free to make another post
hope this helps

I dont know if u have fixed it but if you havent i sudget you search for this file "Stocked_Amaze_Deodexed.zip" and flash it as if you were flashing
a custom rom... this is stock ics From tmobile and its the only stock flashable zip that works with any recoverymod...
i would give u the link but i forgot what was the name of it and dont have it on my history but im sure you can find it with the name i gave you

Which RUU did you use? Personally, I'd suggest using THIS RUU.
Before using this RUU, make sure your battery is FULLY charged, and then make sure you have re-locked your bootloader. After that, rename the RUU to PH85IMG (usually the .zip part is already appended to the end, so if you add the .zip part, it'd actually be PH85IMG.zip.zip, which won't work)
Then add it to the root of your SDCard, boot into bootloader by taking out your phone's battery, putting it back in, then holding volume down button and power button. Keep holding those 2 buttons until the bootloader screen comes up. It will auto-detect the RUU and go from there.
After all's said and done, unlock your bootloader again, install a custom recovery - I recommend the 4EXT recovery - and then flash your ROM of choice.
Best of luck!
Anyone that could help me out with this, I would be so grateful. I am new at this, this is my very first post, and I'm looking up to you guys as my super hero! I have checked threads for the past 7 hours and cannot find out how to fix the following problem. I have found threads addressing similar issues but always find something that is slightly different and cannot help, I think I have a unique situation.
In a nut shell, my current objective is to restore the phone back to factory settings.
-Phone WAS running on Sense 3.6, ICS 4.0 <-ICS came preinstalled with the carrier
- I succesfully rooted the phone via the 'Hasoon Amaze all in 1 kit', downloaded 4EXT 1.0.0.5RC3, and tried to load the Cyanogen CM 10 jellybean rom
-Where it was stuck on the Cyanogen splash screen
-Figured out it was because my phone was set to S-ON via the bootloader screen, which HTC prevents cutsom roms from loading apparently
-Could not figure out how to remove the CM10 rom from automatically loading up, so I figited around in the 4EXT, and wiped everything
-Current Rom (according to 4EXT is 'Unknown')
Where I am right now:
- Stuck at HTC splash screen
- Only things I can access is the bootloader and 4EXT ( via battery out, volume down at restart)
-Cannot connect the through USB to modify the anything on internal SD card (I cannot access the phones internal drive through the computer)
-Cannot access SD card through 4EXT (it cannot locate it)
-I have tried to factory reset from the bootloader screen - takes me to 4ext. I have tried to factory reset from 4ext, takes me to the frozen HTC logo.
-With not being able to connect via USB, I cannot load anything else (zip files) onto the phone from the computer.
I have no idea what to do now Did I delete some important factory recovery file when I wiped the phone from 4EXT?
The idea was, that I'd install Jellybean as a ROM, I don't like HTC sense, I wanted google now, and I failed. I would REALLY appreciate it IF you can help and are in Toronto, beers on me.

since your phone came ICS preinstalled it'll be a lil easy choose the correct carrier and download the Latest stock ruu from there and Rename the RUU to PH85IMG.zip and place it on the root of your external sd card. Once this file is on the SDcard, do a battery pull, then turn the device back on while holding down the VOLUME DOWN button.once your in bootloader it will prompt you to install, select yes and then it'll flash then flash 4ext after that..when your flashing another rom always run this super wipescript from 4ext..it is IMPORTANT to do a full wipe before flashing another rom..

Hey Ravike - thanks so much for taking the time to help me out. Remember, I am new, so please correct me if I am wrong understanding what you mean in this solution. Do you mean to say to follow these steps;
1) Get an external SD card from a store (I do not have one)
2) Find a way to load the said .zip file on to the External SD card (I cannot transfer the file from computer directly to the external SD card via phone USB connection as it is not showing up as a mounted drive in My Computer - I would have to have a friend put the file onto it some other way), then insert the card into the phone
3) I am a little curious about this one -- And once the file is on the external SD card, load bootloader (on the phone) and bootloader will automatically recognize that this file is on the external SD card and prompt me to install it? (Again I am new, but from what I've seen it just doesn't seem like bootloader has that kind of functionality -- prompting)
4) If step 3 is true, it will end up putting me into 4ext.
-If you confirm these steps, then what happens after I end up in 4ext after step 4)? What happens and where am I in my quest to reset to factory
-If you do not confirm these steps, would you be so kind as to detail where I went wrong?
I just want to as sure as I can before going out to a store and actually buying an external SD card.
Again, thanks SO much for this, I really do appreciate it.

1.yup you have to have a sd card dont buy a huge one even 2GB is enough (i'm using a 2GB for flashing n stuff)
2.well try the option called ''toggle usb storage'' from 4ext it mounts your int n ext sd card on pc aswell if it doesnt work then ask one of your friends or take a card reader or something?
3.well when you boot into bootloader most of the times your in fastboot mode so make sure your in the right mode the option you should be seeing will appear as ''fastboot,recovery,factory rest,clear storage,simlock image crc'' simply all you have to do is go to bootloader option and press power button
4. try it first :good:
Soubds like you dont have smartflash enabled in 4ext... or did I miss that part somewhere?

Hey Again. Still stuck. Just a quick note that my carrier is Mobilicity. Here is what I've done so far since we last talked.
1) I got an external SD card
2) I loaded the file within the link you gave me "OTA_RUBY_ICS_35_S_DAVE_CA_2.14.1800.6-1.45.1800.2_R_release_263099viknauioz1fkgotb.zip" ,and renamed it to "PH85IMG.zip", as you said (I think - this is the zip file in the link Latest stock ruu you provided under Mobilicity) on the root of the external SD card
I note that there is another file in that link under mobilicity named "RUU_Ruby_DAVE_CA_1.45.1800.2_R_Radio_1.09.550L.11v 2DC_30.67.550L.09_release_227348_signed.exe"
3) Bootloader recognized there was a file there and tried to work it's magic but it failed and took me back to boot loader.
Which file do I rename to PH85IMG.zip? The exe or the zip? And what to I do with whatever file happens to be the one that I am not renaming to PH85IMG.zip? And where do I put it?
To answer the other fellow - I have tried enabling smartflash either way. And the CM10 rom is gone now. So is the stock rom. There is no rom running at all. It's just the HTC logo screen and does nothing. I can access Bootloader screen and 4ext through bootloader, but that's it.
THANKS!!!

Thanks Ravike! Still stuck though brother!
1) How to I 'relock the bootloader'?
2) I'm soooo new, what do you mean by 'flash it'? What's the procedure for flashing in this situation?
3) Also, what do I do with the other exe file or is it not important?
4) Is there any settings in 4EXT I need to ensure are on, or mounted or enabled?
Other things to note (may be useful for answer):
- When I rename the zip to PH85IMG.zip and go into bootloader, the following shows up in HBoot:
ph85diag.zip no image!
ph85diag.nbh no or wrong image!
PH85IMG.zip loads up, a blue progress bar eventually finishes, then it says
PH85IMG.zip ... checking
PH85IMG.zip ... parsing
Then it brings me back to the default bootloader screen and back to where we started. This may be where your solution of flashing comes into play of 'relocking' and 'flashing'? I don't know, hope you do!

Thanks Ravike! Still stuck though brother!
1) How to I 'relock the bootloader'?
2) I'm soooo new, what do you mean by 'flash it'? What's the procedure for flashing in this situation?
3) Also, what do I do with the other exe file or is it not important?
4) Is there any settings in 4EXT I need to ensure are on, or mounted or enabled?
Other things to note (may be useful for answer):
- When I rename the zip to PH85IMG.zip and go into bootloader, the following shows up in HBoot:
ph85diag.zip no image!
ph85diag.nbh no or wrong image!
PH85IMG.zip loads up, a blue progress bar eventually finishes, then it says
PH85IMG.zip ... checking
PH85IMG.zip ... parsing

Okay, somewhat good news (I think)...
I did manage to relock the bootloader in fastboot using the all in one toolkit. It looks like yes, it will send commands via fastboot mode.
In HBoot, It did something differently this time....
It used to say:
ph85diag.zip no image!
ph85diag.nbh no or wrong image!
PH85IMG.zip loads up, a blue progress bar eventually finishes, then it says
PH85IMG.zip ... checking
PH85IMG.zip ... parsing
Now it says:
ph85diag.zip no image!
ph85diag.nbh no or wrong image!
PH85IMG.zip loads up, a blue progress bar eventually finishes, then it says
PH85IMG.zip ... checking <-----this time with a yellow progress bar
Then it takes me back to the bootloader screen.
- tried to hit recovery (which usually takes me into 4ext, and it reboots the phone and back into bootloader)
-Factory reset also reboots the phone and back into bootloader
-If I go into fastboot, and hit reboot it also reboots the phone and back into bootloader
-At one point, I saw the yellow status bar on the HTC logo screen and it took me back into bootloader
-Each time it goes into bootloader, it follows the process of detecting the zip file mentioned above, but then it ultimately puts me back into bootloader
So now, here is where I am,
-The bootloader is relocked
-HTC logo/splash screen no longer freezes, yellow progress bar appears in top right corner and puts me into bootloader
-Cannot seem to access 4ext anymore
-Able to send commands to phone via All in 1 kit 3.2 with phone connected in Fastboot mode
-RUU zip is on External card, which gets read in Hboot, but throws me back into bootloader mode
Keep 'em comin' boys! I'd be so grateful if we could solve this! Are we almost there yet? LOL

Hey. I've been trying to flash the twrp recovery as indicated in the Htc dev unlock and root discussion. I've already unocked the bootloader, but once i try to flash the new recovery via the fastboot method i get the error message on the windows shell:" C:\Users\Desktop\Fastboot>fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
error: cannot load 'recovery.img' "
The file is there, debug usb mode is on and i'm using windows 7. I also downloaded adb drivers... am i doing smth wrong?
Thanks in advance

I don't know...I haven't any problems with flashing twrp recovery. I follow steps from THIS link (look in last method "Fastboot Method")
That is exactly the procedure i was following too... i really don't get what is going wrong.

I have The same problem..
Did you guys rename the image file you downloaded to "recovery.img"?
Also, you're not trying to flash it with the phone turned on, are you? USB debugging has no bearing on fastboot mode... Make sure you're in fastboot mode and not bootloader mode also.
i double checked everything. I am in usb fastboot mode , cable connected to phone etc. it just doesnt work.. giving me the error message as before.
What country are you in by chance?

I have an ATT phone but currently living in Jamaica...I've had this phone for close to 2weeks now but im getting frustrated with all the att bloatware pre-installed..i would also like to tether using the phone but instead have to b using pdanet. i have already unlocked bootloader on htcdev following ur guidelines and i have all the correct htc drivers installed. upon looking through ur threads about the desire 610 i came across 1 person who has the same ATT phone and followed ur rooting guide but now has posted pics of their screen with icons to the left and the borders bigger...are u working on a new root or better yet, is there a way to enable tethering or uninstall the att bloatware without rooting the phone bcuz thats all i really want to do in the first place...and before i forget, i dont see an option to update the phone without using ATT, does this mean that i cant update to newer versions of kit kat knowing that im in jamaica... Any assistance would be greatly appreciated...
I'm not certain yet. Wait until I get a one click solution for you, and we'll see if it's something that's easily fixed. The root method is about as good as it's going to get. There's no exploit needed, so it's unlikely one will ever be created that will work.
try adding ( .img ) at the end so recovery.img.img it looks like, change to recovery.img then add another .img at the end.. worked for me isk why.. or use kingroot to root after bootloader unlocked. Sorry to add to old thread.
looking to but htc 610 phone, can all models be rooted ? dont wanna buy another phone and all but my model can root and twrp, i will lose it for real.. any help appreciated.. trying to stay with gsm unlocked or simple mobile and under $75 , as well as hotspot/tether on the phone in settings. any suggestions on phones to buy appreciated
