Hey guys I am looking for a little help. I had an IDIOT error.
I have a rezound that I put a custom recovery and unlocked via hosoons tool. Then I flashed a custom Rom (newts hybrid).
Well I started reading about how its easier to flash etc if you are s-off. So I tried restoring my stock unrooted backup. While restoring it failed and I came to find out its because I needed to also restore the boot.IMG. so I went to try and find it and my backup was gone! I have went thru internal and external its no where.
So I reflashed the Rom and boot IMG the correct way and am now running that. So my basic question is am I sol? Am I stuck on this Rom?
Thank for any help.
Sorry for the crappy type out I am at work and just got time to write this up. I will update what I get home.
P.s I did a lot of searching and couldnt find anything.

S On you say...
It's as easy as extracting the boot.img file and using fastboot to install the boot.img file.
Open up the ROM you downloaded and extract the boot.img file.
Place the boot.img in the folder where you have fastboot, ex:
d:\phones\rezound\bootloader\andriod\
Boot into recovery; flash your ROM; boot into the bootloader; then run fastboot from the command prompt:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
Good luck and have fun.
Thanks for your reply! But how would I go about getting back to stock? I understand the boot.IMG flashing procedure I just didn't realize it was necessary to restore a backup and now my stock back up is not available and I have no idea where it went so I am running the Rom I stated above with no way to go back to stock.

You don't have to go back to stock to change ROMs. You can just wipe and flash another ROM (including whatever kernel comes with it).
But yeah, if you want to s-off you should be stock. Although now it seems even if you are s-on flashing the kernels is automated. I just flashed EclipticRez and it had me select s-off or s-on, I picked s-on and it made the PH98IMG of the kernel and went to hboot. I just had to say yes and delete the file afterwards.
But you can get back to stock by running the RUU found here:
http://www.androidpolice.com/2012/0...ull-ruu-build-4-03-605-2-for-the-htc-rezound/
You need to put this on your external sd card, rename it to PH98IMG.zip, relock (fastboot oem lock) and reboot. Hboot will find the file and start running it. Let it run through several times so it gets all the files. It will reboot you once it's done. Then you'll need to unlock again and flash a custom recovery and then you can make a new nand of stock to make it easier to get back to it.
Also, there's an OTA that just rolled out so if you don't want to be bothered by it just don't put the back door on so you won't connect. There's a thread about it in General, seems to be new radios and who knows what else.
But don't you have to be s-off to flash an RUU? Also can you put amon ra recovery on your phone with s-on?

No, you just have to be locked to run the RUU. I'm still s-on and I just did it last night. Then I flashed Amon Ra and then a ROM.
s-off was a later discovery so RUUs and custom recoveries were being flashed by everyone when they were s-on until someone figured out how to s-off.
So while I'm on my Rom I can relock and flash the ruu? Do I need to put the recovery back to stock or will the ruu do that?
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using xda premium
The RUU will do that. All you need to do is put it on your sd card if it's a zip file, rename it to PH98IMG.zip, relock and reboot.
I am sorry for my ignorance but I need to relock first correct?
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using xda premium
Yes.
Save anything you need off both cards. Pictures, music, etc... any files at all.
Make a nandroid of what you have now in case anything goes wrong. (I'm sure it won't)
Relock the phone in fastboot:
fastboot oem lock
Put the RUU file on the sd card and rename it to PH98IMG.zip
Reboot the phone into bootloader (hold vol down then press and hold power until you are in hboot)
Phone will find the PH file and run the RUU. It goes through it a few times. The screen will go dark a few times during the process and it will go through updating after each of those times again. Just let it run it's course and it will reboot your phone when it's done. Delete the PH file if it's still there. (I used my orig 16gb card and popped in my 64gb back in as soon as I did it so I didn't check if it was still on the 16gb card or not, but if it is it will run again so make sure it isn't.)
After that you will need to unlock again using your unlock token. If you don't have it still you can get a new one. I just keep mine in my flashing folder on the pc so it's always there if I need it.
Use this command to unlock:
fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin
Then flash your recovery:
fastboot flash recovery nameofrecovery
Root
Make a nandroid for going back to stock whenever you need to
Flash ROM of choice.
Good luck!
Hey thank you so much for your help! For some reason my phone eouldnt read the PH98img file. So I had to use hasoons tool again and flashed the file that way. Ran it twice and bam back to relocked stock! I really appreciate all of of your guys help!
I do have one more question. Do you have to be s-off to flash amonra recovery? I have read where you don't and where you do...
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using xda premium
No, you can flash Amon Ra while s-on. Everyone did before s-off happened. I'm still s-on and I just did the whole RUU thing, Amon Ra, new ROM a couple days ago.
Don't forget to make a nandroid of stock right after you flash Amon Ra.
Thanks again! What Rom do you recommend?

I'm glad I saw this thread, because I'm in trouble.
I've been running an ICS rom with the gingerbread patch. But tethering never worked.
In an effort to get tethering working, I flashed the new CM10.1 JB rom. Phone stuck at HTC screen. Did some reading, realized I needed to yank the boot.img out of the zip and fastboot it in. Did that, didn't help. I spent 4 hours last night trying every conceivable order of events. rom first, then img. img first, then rom. img via fastboot. img via PH98update file. Nothing works.
I put amon ra on and started all over again. Ugh. My old Sprint Evo was a tank for stuff like this, I swear you could put anything you wanted on it and it would run fine.
Anyway, I was going to come on here and ask if it's possible to go S-OFF with a stuck phone because it's all I could think of.
But now I will try this relock, ruu, unlock, amon ra, root method.
Here goes another 8 hours.

Good luck! Post back if you have any issues. The RUU took me about 10-20 minutes.
After you flash Amon Ra and root make a nandroid so you can easily revert to stock if needed.
Back up and running. The instructions were well written and easy to understand.
Thanks for all the help!
However I think this time I just want to go straight to S-OFF. I did the htc dev unlock last time, I have no idea where my token is.
I guess I'd rather go all the way and s-off so I can try that JB rom again without worrying about seperating the boot.img file.
So is it possible to s-off my phone with the RUU listed on this thread? And phone currently locked?
Another question. I don't think I've flashed any firmware which means my phone is still running GB firmware. Does that mean I need to always run the GB patch when running IC or JB roms?
Good to hear!
The RUU will have gotten you to the latest firmware if you used the global one at android police.
As to any s-off questions, I'm still s-on so I would get that info from someone else. I don't want to say the wrong thing and get you in a bad spot. There's a long s-ff thread in the general section and I'm sure if you just search you should find the info you need. Or else there's a help thread also in the general section where you can post questions or actually, probably find the answers you need.
Keep this handy for next time:

I can't get my phone to boot up so I can't use a RUU and when I go into fastboot and select recovery it just goes back into a bootloop I have looked everywhere for a stock ROM in the form of a .nbh and can't find any! Does anyone have one they could share? Thanks in advance! The Rezound doesn't have a Q&A section so I posted here.
*UPDATE* I found the PH98IMG's http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1365654
I am not at all familiar with an nbh file... Too my knowledge if you can still get into hboot you should be able to ruu.
I know when I relocked I couldn't boot back up with my normal ROM and used the ruu exe file to take care if it.... Try there first

It says in that tread that you can extract the PH98IMG from the RUU which did not work at all and the RUU's don't work from fastboot
Here is a link to a ruu file you should be able to rum through fastboot as all a your mainver is 2.01.605.11 rename as PH98IMG http://www.4shared.com/zip/MNDHXsaC/rom.html

I've had some RUU issues myself but was never able to find these files, so thanks for the link.
One question, did you have to flash stock recovery first, or does the PH file take care of all that clean up for you?

Running the RUU flashes the stock hboot, stock recovery, stock radio, stock kernel, and stock ROM, it is also reputed to wipe your "internal storage".
To return to root, you flash Amon Ra in fastboot and use the advanced menu to re-root, then you can flash a custom ROM and/or kernel.

I ran the RUU from Fastboot, so I know it does work.
why don't you just go back to fastboot and flash the recovery again to see if that fixes it?

I ended up having to return that Rezound because it had something seriously wrong with it. It messed up 1hr after I purchased it, I was on the Market and it went to the HTC logo and just kept rebooting, and the only thing I could do was get into fastboot. When I selected recovery it would just boot back to the HTC screen and when I tried to factory reset it did the same. I unlocked the bootloader and flashed the CWM recovery several times but it still would just go to the HTC screen. When I typed "fastboot boot recovery" it said it couldn't load the recovery. I formatted a sdcard, put the PH98IMG on it, it loaded the image but then would act like nothing was ever loaded instead of asking me to accept the update, and it would just go back to the main HBOOT directory Anyways all is well now Verizon replaced it with no problems as soon as they opened today.
I am S-Off with AmonRa 3.15 Unlocked, Rooted and have the GB Stock Sense.
Things seemed a lot simpler with the DInc. Load the RUU on the SD, change the name zip and boot it from the boot loader.
From what I am reading, I have to flash the newest leaked ROM, then install AmonRa 3.15 again, then load the radios?
Doesn't sound or seem right and I know I will end up screwing something up.
Can someone give me a step by step instruction on this? Do I have to name each file PH98IMG.zip, install it then delete it and load another to install?
I am not understanding it.
Lmao wtf ?
Grab the ruu file, rename it to ph98img.zip and put on root of sdcard. Itll update firmware, rom, radios in one shot. Then you reinstall aromra and why are you s off and unlocked ? Point of soff is to be locked and still be rooted. I think you probably misread some threads wrong but good luck, hope i helped
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using Tapatalk 2
Btw if your unlocked, you cant run the ruu i believe. Better relock first .
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using Tapatalk 2
I know I did. I thought I had to unlock to root so I did. There are so many variations of the update threads going around. S-On, S-Off, S-On, Unlocked, Rooted. I can't keep this crap straight. That is why I am asking.
Thank you
i suggest reading this thread to get a better idea of everything involved.
but yes, phones change and evolve. they're not all the same, so you gotta roll with it.
If you're s-off I don't think you'll have to relock. But it's a total wipe of the phone, so you'll have to reinstall Amon Ra. You'll lose everything except your external SD card.
Back up your internal SD, and anything you care about.
Put the RUU on your external SD named as PH98IMG.zip. MD5 it *after* you put it on the SD card to ensure a perfect transfer.
Shut off phone, pull battery. Put battery in.
Start bootloader with volume and power keys. Everything's automatic from there. Volume up to say Yes when prompted. Process restarts automatically if the RUU has to flash your HBOOT.
On first boot, go straight to the SD card and rename that PH98IMG.zip file so you don't lock yourself out of recovery.
Now shut down and do the battery thing again.
Start bootloader and do the factory system reset/wipe. This is your last and only chance to fix any corruption in the radio partition, and you need to do this before flashing Amon Ra. You'll see the recovery screen and a progress bar that just twirls. When done the phone reboots automatically.
You may now shut down and install Amon Ra. In my experience, the phone will remain unlocked, and you can flash from fastboot if you prefer.
I haven't tried rooting the leak from Amon Ra because I usually just apply a rooted ROM from this point.
Be careful what ROMs you apply, because some ROMs may "upgrade" your kernel to an older version. In my limited experience, the one on the RUU is the best one.
Well, this changed me to Sense 3.5 software number 2.01.605.11 I downloaded Scott's Stock Rooted RUU 3.14.605.5 LOL!
Told you **** never works right when I do it.
Going to try relocking and running again

You don't need to relock, you just need the right file. Scott's rooted 3.14 is a ROM, not the RUU. You need the actual RUU. The name of his thread is a little confusing as it is based on the newest leaked RUU but is not bootloader flashable via the PH98IMG.zip method. Get the real RUU and follow the excellent instructions above.
The PH98IMG in that post is not the full RUU and is only for the special case that he outlines in the first post under "install instructions".

Got it. Couldn't install under HBOOT. Had to do it under recovery and couldn't use the PH98IMG file name. Just left Scott's as named in the download.

Sounds like you need to flash the ph "patch" file to use ics Rom. Your still on a gb ruu.
I would suggest reading up on how to s-off
Then upgrade to the latest RUU. there are tons of post in the first link of this forum
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using xda premium
Wrong section, please post threads like this in the Rezound Q&A section.
You need to flash the GB kernel either as a PH98IMG.zip in the bootloader or flash the boot.img with fastboot. Because your phone is s-on, recovery can't restore the kernel on it's own. Once you have it fixed, I would also recommend you use Amon Ra for recovery, not CWM.
Wrong section, but it appears that you may need to fast boot the boot.img for the gb rom you are trying to run, if you have not tried this already.
What mjones said lol... beat me to it
as i remember i tried to flash stock 2.3 ROM with it came PH98IMG.zip, but when i tried to flash it after rom it say older version or something like that.
i know that i am on wrong place and excuse me for that one more time but i am really in deep **** because i own money to person i need to fix it soon please guys can u provide me with right things, like give me a link how to s-off wothout turning on phone, and give me the right PH98IMG.zip and stock rom. Please guys i know that it is very hard but i am really in bad situation :
Flash this zip in recovery and then try to flash the PH98IMG from bootloader afterwards....The zip i posted should now allow you to do so.
I also suggest doing more research and reading up on things before attempting them on a device you are unfamiliar with.

now i will try from

i will tell what will happen.
what i find so quickly if i want to flash any rom i need to be s-off, only one way to make s-off as i saw i need some wires am i right? or is there any other way?
no other way, only one s-off method.
if i were you i would
1. Relock the bootloader.
a. boot into bootloader
b. go to fastboot
c. on pc navigate to your fastboot files in cmd line
d. type "fastboot oem lock"
2. Reset mainver
3. Run the latest leaked ics Ruu
4. Install amon ra 3.15
5. In amon ra go to developer section and install super user (regular not eng)
6. Unlock the bootloader
7. S-off the phone - http://unlimited.io
8. Flash amon ra 3.15 again
9. Reformat your sd card because it most likely got messed up from s-off
10. Install ivysaur 3.2
a. go into the pkmn tweaks and turn the boot animation sound off
b. make sure everything is fine and dandy and there you go
Look into each step further make sure you know what your doing.
I am a complete noob. Sprint Evo 3d 1.5 s-on, I have been running Viper IC3D for a month now, loving it,should have stuck with that. I wanted to try one of the Jelly Bean Roms, specifically the Team D.I.R.T. one, but I didn't want to have to keep flashing the two roms back and forth. Found out about Boot Manager Pro on here, and found a thread about using it with hboot 1.5 s-on. followed the instructions, booted into D.I.R.T. rom. fiddled with it, decided to go back to my phone rom. Boot Manager kept unexpectedly closing on me, wouldn't stay open long enough to do anything. So I went into recovery and restored my nandroid of Viper. But D.I.R.T. loaded! Said screw it, and wiped and reflashed Viper. D.I.R.T. loaded! Couldn't get anything but that ROM to load no matter what I did. Uninstalled Boot Manager, nothing but D.I.R.T.So I hunted around here and found a thread that said if all else failed, to manually remove Bootloader from sd and go from there. Did that, and it soft bricked my phone. I can get into recovery, but no matter what I do when I reboot it hangs in HTC white boot screen. I cannot afford another phone and don't get an upgrade til next year. Please Say there is a solution to this! I cried all last night, couldn't sleep, and I'm crying again. Side note, i accidentally erased half the C; Drive on my laptop trying things I found on another android forum,and system restore didn't work. So I'm back here, and I'm scared to try anything else, but I have to do something. Help!!!!!!
Flash the kernel. All will be well.
Viper rom should include boot.img.
Extract it to sdk-tools folder.
Open terminal, cd to sdk-tools directory.
Hold volume plus down on phone. Hit power button on fastboot option.
Plug in phone to computer. It should say fastboot usb on phone screen now. If not, install htc drivers.
Go to terminal. Type "fastboot flash boot boot.img
Should see some stuff happen on computer screen, phone will reboot.
Do that then report back.

I'm doomed. I was able to flash CWM this way, although it didn't help me at all. But I tried to flash the boot img and it didn't work. Didn't seem to recognize the command.
I'm cdma s-on? So basically you relocked and flashed an RUU and then relocked?
try to relock and flash with RUU it will work
At first when you were unable to boot back to phone rom, you should have went into recovery and flash the update.zip located in the sdcard/bootmanager/phonerom.
Anyway try to flash back to viperrom again then boot your recovery via fast boot since you are not s-off. And flash the update.zip from the phone rom folder. If everything fails just relock your bootloader and use the ruu.exe and you should be fine.

The command is: fastboot flash boot c:\(navigate to the sdk map with boot.img)\boot.img
For instance. for me it's c:\Users\(my name)\boot.img
Because i have my sdk and boot.img in my User map.
I believe boot manager creates the files for the second rom on the sd card. maybe thats why the D.I.R.T rom is loading.. My advice, try a different sdcard and see if the viper rom starts (you still might have to flash the boot.img via adb because of s-on)
I have no idea where the files for second rom are created so maybe if someone else could help out here. Then it should be a simple matter of deleting the second rom from the sd card and then go ahead and flash your viper rom.

Found on androidfiles.org/ruu/?developer=Vigor or any of the other ones it fails. Fortunately I have not bricked the phone yet but I am running out of options since android police site has one but says not to use it : This will not work if you used the HTC Bootloader unlock tool. Your device must be fully stock with a locked bootloader or you must have S-Off (method).
Help please!!!
Try this link here http://shipped-roms.com/index.php?category=android&model=Vigor and download the PH98IMG_ICS_3.14.605.12.zip! Do not download any others. Rename it to PH98IMG.zip and flash in bootloader. It should allow you to flash it.
If I'm incorrect on something someone plz correct it

Okay I am kinda stupid at the moment since I have fried my brain trying everything. How do I flash it? and will that brick my phone since I am S-on?

After you rename it place it on the root directory of the SD card. Then power phone off. Then press volume down + power so it boots into bootloader. There it should ask if you want to update. Tell it yes. It won't brick you as its the same s/w you seem to be on. Worst case it won't flash.
Edit: make sure you verify the md5!

What message do you get when running the RUU, also what Rom were you running prior to relocking?

My rezound is semi-bricked currently and I am also looking to get back to stock form. I think the most current ROM that I had on it would be like Infection2.3. But I cannot seem to get past the boot animation and I believe the RUU needs to be actually booted up all the way? I will check the Hboot versions and such when I get home. (I tried a ph98img in the root but when it attempted to flash I got "HBoot version is older than expected, exiting")
Any thoughts?

Remember to flash a ph98img zip RUU, the bootloader must be relocked and internal storage will also be completely wiped. Backup the contents in recovery using usb mass storage mounts.

Sounds like all that needs done is a factory reset(wipe caches+data) and wipe system. Re-flash a Sense rom and fastboot flash the matching boot.img. Try my rom Viral OTA, just the data/system wipes prior to flashing and it willk get you back up to 100%. Rememer to reboot to bootloader if using TWRP.
