HBoot 1.5 S-ON
Unlocked
4Ext recovery
HTC Evo 3D Sprint CDMA
Well, I had flashed Scott's latest CleanRom not expecting it to be ICS. So I booted into 4EXT, wiped data, dalvic and cache.
I then flashed the rom, then re-wiped dalvic and cache. Re-booted, everything was fine. Played around with it for a bit, didn't like it compared to my old rom(viperROM Redline v2.5 RC2)
I went back into bootloader, then did the same process as I did with flashing the CleanRom. I now get boot-loops after re-booting from flashing any rom I have tried so far. (Too many to try to list) Been trying to get it working all day.
The boot-loop is the white HTC Spash screen, then the phone turns off, then restarts itself.
Does anybody know how I can get back to using my phone again?

Need help - similar problem
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2027561
Hey Everyone.
Ive seen a few threads about this but not much help. I've been trying to flash CM9 to my Rezound and it just gets stuck at the HTC white loading screen. It's been there for about 18 mins now. I can flash Venom just fine and I have been using that with no problems. I should be S-OFF, I did the PH98IMG zip at the bootloader. Just wondering if anyone has any reasons why Venom works great but CM9/le noob wont boot.
Thanks for your help and time.

If you're s-off, you shouldn't be flashing anything in the bootloader, my guess is you have a kernel from a different rom sitting on your SD card, the CM9 installs don't create a PH98IMG.zip file.
Try removing the file off your SD card and flash the rom again without flashing anything additional in the bootloader.

Someone packaged up the latest kernel to go along with Gray's 9/12 build here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=31460595&postcount=57
Copy that as PH98IMG.zip on your sd card and flash it in the bootloader after you install the rom.

Ive tried this a few times and it is just freezing at "Parsing...[PH98IMG.zip]".
I'm going to let is sit on this for about 10 mins. I got some other new ROMS to Work today, just not CM9.

OK, it got done parsing. Still just sits on the White HTC Screen, ill prolly just go back to Viper until CM9 is more stable.
Do a full wipe.
Install CM9 in recovery, then immediately go to boot loader to flash the PH98IMG.

CM9 isn't the problem, I highly suggest you s-off your phone to make installing all roms in general easier.
Hey, guys!
So, I'm trying to get CM9 running on my Rezound. I had CM7 on my Droid and I have an HP TouchPad and I can't live with CM.
Anyway, I had previously installed the leaked ICS build back in March or April and that included flashing a PH98IMG.ZIP. (I think it was CleanRom that I installed, but I have to double check).
Anyway, I have Amon Ra installed and I went ahead and wiped data, cache, and Dalvik-cache, and installed the CM9 zip and gapps and I am also stuck on the white HTC screen. I'm guessing it's because I have a different kernel than what CM9 needs.
Should I flash the PH98IMG.ZIP linked above (the one for devices with S-ON) or is there another option?
Don't mean to hijack this thread or anything so if I should post a new one just let me know. I just saw that I'm having the same problem so I thought I'd post here.
Thanks!!!

Wipe EVERYTHING! INCLUDING /SYSTEM & /BOOT then flash CM9, reboot to HBOOT if S-On and install the included PH98IMG.ZIP from HBOOT volume up to confirm. Then Reboot. PROFIT?

Thanks for the reply!
When you say the "included PH98IMG.ZIP", do you mean the boot.img that is inside cm-9-20120910-UNOFFICIAL-len00b-vigor.zip (obviously with storing it inside a PH98IMG.ZIP) or do you mean the AOSP-GrayTheWolf_Build-9-12-2012-PH98IMG.zip?

No I mean GrayTheWolf_Build and rename that file to PH98IMG. Place on the root of external sd card. First wipe everything. Then flash CM9 Le noob from recovery and reboot to bootloader to flash PH98IMG. (Volume up to confirm the flash once in the bootloader.)
Hit thanks if I helped!

Still didn't work for me. Here's what I did:
In Recovery, wiped data, cache, dalvik cache, system, boot, and did a factory reset. I then installed the CM9 zip.
From there, I did a reboot to bootloader. It picks up that there is a PH98IMG.ZIP sitting there and it says it is parsing it, but then it doesn't do anything else. In other words, it never gives me the option to confirm the flash or anything.
I rebooted and it hangs on the white HTC screen still. If it makes a difference, when I am in bootloader my phone says "unlocked" at the top.
Any thoughts?
Well, that's a tough one. I think the reason it won't be finish parsing is because either: 1.) you didn't wait long enough or 2.) it's a bad build for the PH98IMG. My best advice is to go S-Off Your phone!

You mean maybe I didn't wait long enough on the white HTC screen? I can let it go longer this morning. I was getting ready for bed when I was going this last night.
If that doesn't work then, yeah, I guess I'll have to go S-OFF. I'm guessing I can find a guide somewhere for that. I also have the All in One Rezound tool so I'll see if that has anything to help.
Thanks for all the help so far!

Doing some reading it seems that people are being confused by the kernel file they are supposed to flash. I think the easiest way to flash the kernel is in fast boot. Extract the boot.img file from the build you are installing and place it in your directory that has adb and fastboot installed. Then in fastboot type "fastboot flash boot boot.img" (there is no need to put the boot.img file on your sdcard if you are s-on)

You need to downgrade ti 1.50 or lower.

ok just tryed a 2nd rom and im getting the same result.
Thats strange. im wondering if flashing a different kernel might help..
But at this point i might not be much help. If nothing else works you should try returning to full stuck & root your device again.. & no you will not lose s-off if you flash a RUU

I've read that since I am on S-ON, I have to fastboot the boot.img of these roms in order for them to boot up. The problem with that is: I cannot get this thing to "fastboot usb". I've tried two different cables and two different laptops. It will not connect. I bought this phone online and it did not come with the original cord! Am I completely screwed on this one???
[Q]Need Help!!! Htc evo 4g lte won't boot past recovery and bootloader!!!
What happens when you install Mean Bean?
You are S-on, so you must install the kernel separately from the ROM. MeanBean has an S-on installer, so you must flash the ROM twice to get it to boot. Follow Mikey's instructions in the OP for his ROM.

I was recently S-ON, but on the latest HBoot and Firmware and I was able to flash roms without any issues. While I didn't flash the Meanbean, I was successfully able to flash the roms listed below without doing anything differen than as I would if I was S-Off. Before flashing, I do the proper wipe (cache, dalvik, system etc) and never had any issues.
I'd try a different sense-based rom. Most of the ones are up to date, like

My backup somehow got erased between the time I started this mess and the first rom I tried to flash. Did a wipe and suddenly it was gone.
You can plug it in to the computer via fastboot usb. Move the boot file from any rom you want to flash to a new folder. Open a command Window and type fastboot reboot boot.img. Then reboot back to recovery and flash rom

No go!!!!
I am looking to use moonshine to achieve s-off. I currently have S-ON and SuperCID. I need to update firmware first, so I need to switch back to stock. I am planning on using this method to do so.
Do I need to un-SuperCID, if so, how?
If I leave SupeCID, and run RUU what happens? No OTAs, or something worse?
Excuse my noob questions.
no noob questions here man thats why we help and as far as updating firmware are you planing on using a custom rom and kernel or just wanting s-off for a custom kernel on 2.07 firmware?
supercid does not need to be changed you only have extra steps if you are s-off which then you would need to relock the bootloader first

Well my plan was to go back to stock to ota to the 2.07 then load custom rom, vipers new one actually, after doing moonshine to achieve s-off
I thought leaving supercid was going to prevent me from successful ota. I can always flash the zip instead of ota though, right?
Also I made a more detailed thread in the development section on what I am going to work on doing, with steps that I think are correct, here is the link. I was finally able to post in that section

After s-off, flash a recovery through fastboot and then whatever Rom you want

I am happy to announce I am now S-OFF after facepalm! I actually found your thread about customer recovery. Will be doing that shortly.
One thing that is left to figure out is the tampered flag. I am not able to find any information on how to actually reset it. I found something on a different website about issuing a -t command. But that was after the s-off was achieved using revone. After further research, apparently all I need to do is flash another hboot to get rid of that flag?
P.S
This thread looks like a winner http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2156713 am I on a correct path here?
yes thats correct
You can ignore that flag. If and when you return the phone to complete stock that will taken care of.

New problem. Flashed 2.6 twrp, erased system, cache and internal storage. Went to sideload mode, keeps saying starting. Issue a command in and to load a Rom, nothing happens, cmd return a list of all the commands. Twrp still states starting sideload. Restart the phone to recovery, still the same problem. Flash older version of twrp?
Also twrp keeps telling me I am not rooted.
Thoughts?
Why did you wipe internal storage? Easiest way is to load the ROM onto internal and flash.
Rebooting twrp will install su binaries.
Try older twrp or cwm

Well Viper Sense 5 rom needed a full wipe, so, I wiped everything. Are you saying I do not have to wipe internal storage, just clear everything else, then flash the rom?
The problem was that I have a bad habit of putting spaces when renaming zip files. Once I renamed the zip adb worked just fine. :facepalm:

Exactly, you don't need to wipe your internal storage. You lose pictures, videos, etc

I have been flashing roms for the past 8 hours. Looking for the perfect sense 5. Every rom has issues with data on my phone. Tried 5 . Google play store will not download anything, Or it starts downloading at dial up speeds. 2 roms I actually had to reflash twice because they kept hanging u at at the initial start.
5 roms doing the same thing? I was starting to think something happened to the phone, so I reflashed the original UKB DNA 1.3 rom that I have been running all this time, and it does the same thing.
Any ideas?

So my phone went completely nuts last night. I decided to flash another back up that was working perfectly before going with your recommended rom. Kept failing in TWRP. So after 3 attempts I just decided to reload another rom. Rom installed, phone rebooted, went through initial setup. Once I finished with the initial setup my phone was running sense5 with all of the information from the backup. Needless to say I nuke everything, flash original TWRP (2.4.0.0 beta) that worked for me prior to 2.6. Do a clean install of Viper Sense5 rom and voila! Running perfect right now, no complaints. Fingers crossed. I guess I am done flashing roms for right now and sticking to Vipers. At least until KitKat comes.
good deal
