4EXT recovery working fine but i don't have Ginger Bread official RUU and i cant installed ICS
Please help me out. Tell me how to S-OFF the device and install custom ROM
For your unbranded device - before flashing any ROM - S-OFF and Super CID is a must..

Ok. Here's what you did wrong. If it was on GB first and you tried to flash an ICS Rom it will do that. The radio and partitions need to be updated , if you will. So you will need to find an ICS RUU that matches your phones carrier and update your phone first. If you can't find one then the only way is to S-Off and Super CID. Then you can flash any carriers RUU. Then flash a recovery and flash the Rom of your choice.

i cant find ICS RUU so how to do S-OFF
S-OFF Thread found in Amaze/Development Stickies
Super CID Thread also found in Amaze/Development Stickies.
RUU Thread not official but can be beneficial. Not sure if its still supported for downloads.
Guys i followed these steps
1. I installed HTC Drivers first and then unlocked my bootloader from HTC dev
2. Then I flashed 4EXT touch recovery with the help of HTC Amaze 4G All-In-One Toolkit V5.1.
But in my haste i downloaded ARHD rom and tried to installed it on my cellphone i flashed the GingerBread
Now i don't have Gingerbread or custom rom installed so i can't do this following step
3. Then using 'Perm Root' option from the Extras menu I pushed SuperSU app in phone and manually flashed it in recovery.
and at the moment cellphone is stuck on HTC - logo i cant send/intsallled SuperSU app on my cellphone so how to do S-OFF if i don't have any Rom installed

Just put on your Ext SD card this http://download2.clockworkmod.com/developer/2184/2115/ruby_unsigned_021812_031444.zip and then in Recovery choose >> Install zip from SD and find it and flash it..
Have fun ;-D
i am trying to Flash SuperWipe.zip in recovery but getting this error
All the steps to pass are as follow:
Unlock Bootloader >> Install 4EXT Recovery >> Install SuperUser >> S-OFF >> SuperCID >> ICS Firmware Package >> Desired ROM
Which stage are you now at?

If you're using 4EXT Recovery then there is no need for the "SuperWipe.zip"... 4EXT has an option to Wipe All.

1. Format your microSD first (If it may be formatted in Recovery - it's fine)
2. Put the ROM I pointed earlier on your External SD.
3. wipe | format >> wipe data / factory reset

5. wipe | format >> wipe cash + dalvik
6. install from sdcard >> choose zip from sdcard >> Aforementioned ROM zip

Power failure? Meaning what, your phone died? Did u read the requirements for performing s-off? Heres two of them
"2. Be on the Stock RUU. No other ROMs are supported, Fresh ROM will not work regardless of what you have read elsewhere.
3. Ensure that your battery is fully charged"
The rest are here http://unlimited.io/juopunutbear.htm
Ths is what you need to do, start from scratch. Im 98.1% positive that there is a GB ruu for the unbranded amaze. Flash that on your phone (the correct way, ruu's are not done in recovery). Then read, read, read and make sure you understand before you attempt anything. Then start the process again, unlock bootloader, perform s-off, etc etc. And always, always make sure you have a full battery before doing any mod to your device :thumbup:

I have a HTC Evo 3D and i have rooted my phone using HTC's method and yes i am a noob to android. I have Android 2.3.4 (installed the update before i rooted). I have Rom manager on my phone and have already flashed clockwork mod recovery and downloaded viper rom 1.3. Now when i try to install it from the SD card all my phone does is give me 3 Pre installation choices:
1.Backup Existing Rom
2.Wipe Data and Cache
3.Wipe Dalvik Cache
and the 3rd option is aleady checked and i click ok and another screen pops up it says Press ok to reboot into Clockwork recovery mode and continue installation.
And all my phone does is restart and nothing happens can someone please tell me if im doing something wrong or am i missing something?
What recovery are you using?
A backup is always recommended.
Wipe Data means you clean up your personl settings and stuff.
Also Recommended when flashing a custom rom.
Just go ahead

Suggestion: Don't use ROM Manager to try and flash a ROM. Boot straight into recovery mode (Volume Down and Power button) and do it from there. You will have more control over the process.

I can't believe nobody has been in here to tell you this yet:
If you used HTC's method, unfortunately you are sol as far as flashing any kind of ROM that tries to reload even a stock kernel as part of the process.
Their method was/is a total sham, as far as most custom rom users are concerned.
Sorry, but you're gonna just have to wait for a brand new exploit.

No way to downgrade. Htc new stuff prohibits it. From all accounts, you have to wait for a new exploit.

From what I've read in radom XDA posts, the HTC unlock method provides write access to only the recovery and system partitions of the device but deso not provide write access to the boot partition (where only the kernel is stored). Unfortunately, modifying only the system partition w/o access to the kernel/boot partition can be very limiting.
You should be able to boot into the bootloader by using the volume down + power, mentioned above. Once on the white bootloader screen, you should be able to select Recovery. This should load the clockworkmod recovery as you indicated in a previous post you loaded.
If it doesn't load the clockworkmod recovery but instead loads the stock recovery, the custom recovery wasn't flashed (loaded) properly. Will probably need to flash it again. ROM manager *should* properly flash the cwm custom recovery even on an HTC unlocked device, but this HTC method is very new and we're finding out more and more about its limitations.
Welcome to the Android world! Hope that helps!
Is there a way to back up the entire phone as it is stock with what comes with the phone? Also have a couple of questions because I plan on loading custom roms and possibly rooting.
What are the main differences between the two recoveries:Amon Ra style vigor Current version 3.15 & ClockworkMod Recovery 5.8.1.4? I used ClockworkMod Recovery on the Incredible and was comfortable using it. Do some ROMs require a certain recovery to go with it?
Is there a recommended combination of kernel and ROM to maximize battery life?
S-On/Off is for having the ability to flash radios correct? And currently that's not available Rezound? Unlock boot loader is for flashing custom ROMS Root is for some of the better Apps(and other things I don't know about).
1. once you unlock the phone and flash a custom recovery you can back up the stock rom that is on the phone.
2. ClockworkMod has been having some troubles with the rezound so most of us only use amonRa for dependability.
3. the kernels and battery life are usually hit or miss and also depends on if you are using GB or ICS roms. GB roms have more choices but ICS seems to be what everyone is running as am i and i get great battery life as long as im smart about 4g.
4. S-off is when u can flash just about anything do your phone becuase security is off... we have s-on but unlocked which means we cant flash radios but we can flash everything else safely
BAMF external sd card issues.
So I did every and have successfully flashed BAMF following these instructions: teambamf(dot)net/index.php/topic/3185-rom-bamf-rezound-ics-v12-official-update-32512/#entry70140
but now the problem I am having is that my external sd card is not being recognized. I have tried mounting it manually in the storage settings and it says that it is "preparing to mount sd card" but then nothing happens. I have rebooted into hboot and recovery and the external sd card is recognized there. I have scoured the thread for the rom itself and have found nothing definitively helpful.
is there anything else i can try to do to make this work?
edit: I flashed this file after renaming it: PH98IMGnewfirmwarepeople.zip and this file BAMFupdate.zip for the install. Am I suppose to flash a separate kernel?
Rename PH98IMGnewfirmwarepeople.zip as PH98IMG.zip and place on external sd card then from recovery in the developer menu reboot in the bootloader and flash that file and press the volume up button when it asks.

I've actually done this twice and it has no effect as letting me read my external sd card and i've found another problem of not being able to dial out a phone call.
Did you update to the lastest firmware via the leaKed RUU? If you didn't then you have to flash the oldfirmware PH98IMG instead after flashing the ROM.

I have not, could you direct me as to where I can find it?
I went from a completely stock Rezound. I used the all in one tool kit to unlock and then perm root. And then I followed these steps to install BAMF as per their website:
Instructions for Installing Rom and Kernel (on new firmware)
Download rom file and PH98IMGnewfirmwarepeople.zip
Rename PH98IMGnewfirmwarepeople.zip to "PH98IMG.zip" without the quotes
Place both files on external SD card and reboot to recovery
Make a nandroid backup
Wipe data, cache, dalvic cache, and system
Flash the rom through the "Flash Zip Menu" in recovery
From main recovery screen, choose "Developer Menu"
Select "Reboot to Bootloader" from the developer menu
Phone will reboot to hboot, you may have to select bootloader from hboot screen
Bootloader will load the PH98IMG.zip, select "Yes" to update.
Rock on with your bad self and reboot system

Nevermind on my post about locking, I was able to do it and install the RUU from scott's. I will now try to reflash BAMF and hope everything works.

Well I wanted to follow the directions you posted, but for some reason I can't enable USB debugging even when the box is checked. So I can't lock the boot loader to follow the instructions using the all-in-one tool. Can I flash the RUU without having to relock the phone? or is there some other way to lock the phone via recovery menu and pc that I can do? I tried switching to ICS Ineffabilis, but it hanged after installation so I put BAMF back on and still same problems.
I guess to sum it up what do I need to do to relock bootloader manually?
also I tried to restore my nandroid back up from stock and it didn't work. I'm guess it is because I flashed that firmware for BAMF.
Right the ROM that you flashed was modified from the latest ICS leak from HTC and since you were on stock you should have flashed the old firmware PH98IMG since you didn't run the latest RUU. To run it the phone definitely has to be relocked if the command isn't recognized via fastboot you may need the HTC drivers provided with HTC sync I ran into that same problem. If you just want to go back to stock you have to restore your nandroid backup and flash a GB kernel to get it to boot properly. Hope this helps!
Cool lemme know how it turns out.

Awesome I'm glad that I could give back a little most of the time I just lurk and read up on everything enjoy the ROM and be sure to thank Joel for the work in his thread!
Okay okay.. hello. I'm a new girl at XDA and thus new to all this rooting stuff.
First and foremost, I'm on Android 2.3.6. I used the XWLA4 insecure kernel to flash my SGS2 (since my official Samsung kernel is indeed XWLA4) and used S2Root to install BusyBox and superuser, but I had no CWM recovery so I manually installed CWM 4.0.0.2 via Odin.
It worked like a charm Now came the time to flash a custom firmware. I was thinking of MIUI, CM7 (because I didn't like stock ICS that much) and this new Fatal1ty Extreme ROM. In fact, I liked said ROM so much that I wanted to have it on my phone + the Red theme. And that's where the annoyance began..
I've carefully read all the instructions, but I didn't understand one:
"Copy the ROM to the Root dir of your SD card."
I thought it was just some directory in my USB storage, so I connected my device to my computer and connected the USB storage, yet I didn't find any folder named "Root" or anything that resembled a root directory.
After 1 hour of googling and extensive research, I was so annoyed that I just dragged the ROM + Theme to my USB storage.
I boot into CWM recovery, did a wipe (data/factory reset, dalvik cache wipe etc.) and then installed the ROM. When I rebooted, THIS happened:
I was stuck at the first screen, the one that said "Samsung Galaxy SII" on it with the yellow triangle!
And this screen did not go away until I boot my phone into download mode and flashed the official XWLA4 kernel from Samsung, aka unroot my phone.
After Unroot, my phone worked like normal. No bootloops, no being stuck on the first screen etc.
Can someone please shed light on this? Touchwiz isn't exactly my cup of tea anymore and I really would like to give my phone a custom look ._.
Thanks in advance
EDIT: It seems that this problem seems big, as every ROM that I flash (with wipes) takes <5 seconds to finish, and that usually means that it's a bad flash ._.
Can someone tell me how to solve this?
I've carefully read all the instructions, but I didn't understand one:
"Copy the ROM to the Root dir of your SD card
Root = copy the rom to the sd card not inside any folder .
DO NOT put anything in usb storage it is not the instructions for anything SD CARD only internal not the external one .
Connect phone to pc in usb mass storage mode copy the rom to the phones internal sd card only .
follow with CWM and root phone via Odin
Root + CWM .

EDIT: Maybe I should just flash it and then wait for it to boot.. I read similar situations where people flashed ROMs and they too were stuck on a boot screen, but in reality it really took so long due to the caches being rebuilt ._.
I'll try that. If anyone has suggestions, post in here

When I root my phone with CF-Root-SGS2_XW_OXA_LA4-v5.0-CWM5 kernel from Chainfire, the root is fine but when I flash Fatal1ty via CWM, it says "installation complete" but I can't get past the first screen ._.
When I root my device with the XWLA4 insecure kernel and then root it with S2Root, still nothing.
I even tried flashing Redpill 1.3 (auto-root) and then flash Fatal1ty, still nothing..

Looking at the pic you posted you've downloaded the rom and theme twice (?). It will prevent a sucessful flash. Experience.

Well every time I tried flasing a file like that ( e.g : update-cm-9-20120331-CODEWORKX-galaxys2-signed(2).zip) it will not work.
I tried two different ROMs: The Thebyani ICS one and the VK ICS one.. both have the same problem as Fatal1ty: They're stuck on the boot screen.
EDIT: It seems that this problem seems big, as every ROM that I flash (with wipes) takes <5 seconds to finish, and that usually means that it's a bad flash ._.
Can someone tell me how to solve this?
Okay, here's a sum-up of the problem thus far:
1. Root is fine with any kernel, device functions without any problems.
2. When I want to flash a custom ROM via CWM, it takes <5 seconds to finish and is stuck at the boot logo.
3. Unrooting solves this.
Something must be faulty with the device... Flashing kernels and back to stock is without any complications, yet when I wanna flash a custom ROM, it's stuck at the boot logo ._.
I have a rom GB from CheckRom v6,
i want a rom ICS (Dynamic v1.4)
Dynamic say:
IF you have Gingerbread ROM...

No i dont have stock firmware ICS.
I have a CheckRom V6 GB (2.3.6)
I want change to ICS, But CheckRom don't release ICS Rom
i see the "Dynamic 1.4" is very good for battery life
Can't i change without first change to stock firmware?

I guess you could try. But if the ROM dev says in his instructions that you need to flash stock ICS first, I would listen to him. Maybe it needs the ICS bootloaders? Who knows?

But that question has to be asked of the guy that made the rom he built the rom and their must be a reason for a stock flash .
Cannot see him putting instructions that are not actually required can you .
You can always try all you will get is it works or a non booting phone .
Or even pick another custom rom with simpler install instructions .

Normally there should not be any issues...but
if flashing a stock ICS is a VERY BIG deal for you try someother ROMs who dont recommend to flash a stock first, like OMEGA....
a rom from a portuguese guy dont need instal stock rom first.
Thanks for the answers

Generally speaking, instructions are given for good reason. Skipping steps and saving time usually tends to lead into problems, bootloops, or straight out bricked phones.
Flashing a stock firmware only takes a few minutes anyways... but to each their own, I guess.

'cos it's the "whole updated stock rom", i.e., stock rom + the latest update rolled into one convenient easy-to-use package. read the op.
i was reading stock kernel was needed
i know kernel is usually in the full build
so
1. do we need the stock kernel?
2. Will TA backup work?
3. do we need to clear cache and data?
4. Will the existing 3rd party kernel and recoveries work after the update?
As far as I know from my limited flashing experience, the custom kernel will get overwritten by those present in the ROM being flashed.

1. you should be on stock kernel.
2.after upgrading your mobile you should take backup again. becoz why you want to revert back to older version ?
3.no need to clear cache and data.
4. yes you can flash any kernel and recovery . i had updated it and i am on TWRP.

LOL i tried falshing stock kernel with flashify both time i didnt get wifi signal(MAC UNKNOWN) xD Am not switching over to new update anytime soon....
Flashed this full ROM. Successful !! :highfive:
But I lost Root access and the stock recovery.
I am trying to flash it in fastboot mode, but its stuck at this message:
target reported max download size of 268435456 bytes
sending 'recovery' (8394 KB)...
Without stock recovery, I can't flash the Root.zip file to get root access.

I meant, I lost the stock recovery as well. SO I was trying to flash the stock recovery image file in fastboot mode as usual. But it gives me error as I mentioned earlier. My phone is connected to PC while I try to flash the recovery image file. I suspected the drivers got erased, but thats not the case.
Only when I install stock recovery, the Root.zip file can be flashed using it ( to root the phone again). Because flashing the zip files from new Cyanogen Recovery is not at all working. Some R/W or backmap/bitmap kind of issue comes when I try to flash using the updated recovery.

I am sorry, I put it in wrong terms.
The CWM recovery (having basic look with text in blue that can be opted only using hardware buttons and not touch) is not shown for me now. The Cyanogen Recovery it shows me now looks new (with Apply Update option that can be opted by touch as well). THis new recovery fails whenever I try to flash any zip with it. The error being R/W error or something.
With the old recovery (CWM recovery) I could/did flash the Root.zip. After flashing this full ROM (having the patch), the old recovery is lost. It shows only the new recovery. And with it the Root.zip can not be flashed as it fails, as I mentioned earlier.
May be I will get you screenshots of the new Cyanogen recovery to explain what I mean.
