I recently went to change my ROM on my HTC amaze, but after I was finished installing it went to reboot and ever since no matter what I do, it just stays on the white htc screen. The only thing I can get to is into Recovery. I locked boot loader and unlocked it and after doing so I noticed it said S ON. How do I turn s off while stuck in recovery mode? Im using the ZurgRushTemp root but it says that I need my phone in usb debugging mode and I dont know how to do that in recovery mode. If I sound like a total idiot it's probably because I am. Previously I have unlocked boot loader and rooted my phone and downloaded other roms and it worked fine. I have no fricken clue what happened. Please help me.. How do I s off to install another rom while I can only get into recovery mode?
What recovery did you flash?
If its not 4EXT then you need to flash the kernel using fastboot.

Im not quite sure what you mean by which recovery did I flash? Im using ClockworkMod Recovery v5.0.2.6 if that helps. What does it mean and how do I "flash the kernal using fastboot"?

Alright slowly but surely I'm catching on to all this stuff.. I think. I found "Hasoon2000's HTC amaze all in one kit" on another fourm so im using that. So I want to flash a 4ext recovery? Then after that what? And do I want to flash it to stock telus kernal aswell? Goddamnit did I mess up big this time.

The bootloader screen reads

just get the stock RUU for your phone. Re-lock your bootloader. Rename what you downloaded to PH85IMG.zip. place it in the root directory of your external SD card. reboot your phone into HBOOT and it should automatically flash the stock recovery and ROM. this WILL wipe your phone clean. then you can unlock the bootloader, root it, flash a custom recovery then a ROM of your choice.

Unlocking the bootloader won't change your phone into s-off. So, what you see is correct.
Forget about ZergRush. It won't work, or necessary at all if you unlocked your bootloader, anyway.
Edit: I forgot to mention. Try 'adb logcat' to see if your phone even gets to the boot sequence. If you see your screen gets filled up with tons of stuff, hit control-c to stop it. Then enter adb logcat > logfile.txt to capture it. You can post it here for someone to take a look.
If you can get into bootloader and/or recovery, your phone isn't in a bad shape at all. If you can access your phone from a pc with adb or fastboot (which, you should have if you've unlocked your bootloader), there are things you can try.
1. boot your phone into recovery and see if you can access it through adb shell. Do you see a shell prompt ('$' or '#' sign)? On the phone, use the mount option to mount system and data partitions to see if they are mountable. You can use 'ls -l' on the shell prompt to look around, if you like.
2. If your phone is accessible, but not bootable, the first thing I would try is to flash a boot image. You probably have one sitting in the pc folder you used to unlock, or hanson's all-in-one tool has it.
3. If you flash a fresh boot image (kernel) and the phone still won't boot up, the next thing I would try is to restore from a nandroid backup. I'm sure you've made a backup before you started, right?
4. If the nandroid restore doesn't work, you can try flashing a stock rom like someone elese suggested. You just copy the zip file, which you download from the stock rom thread in the dev section, to the external sd card, rename it to PH85IMG.zip, and reboot your phone into the bootloader. The phone will detect the stock rom if it's there and asks you whether to install the update or not. Remember to download the correct file for your carrier.
5. If nothing works, come back here and post your result. I'm afraid your phone may have a corrupt nand memory...

You used the wrong image, went about using that ota file incorrectly as well, Oh boy, ite, let's keep our fingers crossed on this.
You said your hboot was 1.93.0002? Correct? If you're s-on, this may or may not work, lets hope it does, since's it practically your only hope, though I wonder what your cid currently is set to.
Since you did s-off, you should know how to use adb. Shut the phone off via battery pull, boot up into hboot then go into fastboot, using adb check your cid via this command: fastboot getvar cid
Let me know what it is when you're done, we'll work from there, hopefully we can get this done.
sorry, forgot to pull sd card so it ran the PH85IMG twice,
the cid is
11111111

Cid is 11111111 and you're s-on? Lucky you, well download the mobilicity GB stock ruu exe file, reboot into fastboot and run the file to restore your phone to complete stock GB, hopefully it goes through, though I don't see why it wouldn't, if you're s-on, you'll have to relock your bootloader before doing this.
Thanks! hopefully it'll work

You can download the ruu from the ruu/ota thread in the same forum, the dev host upload by krook is much faster.
Do not change the name of that file, it's an exe file, you have to run it via a pc with your phone connected via usb cable in fastboot mode.
I have recently decided to go S-off with All-In-One-Toolkit and gotten to the recovery portion, but cannot proceed further. I have tried manually flashing but all I get is error messages.

You need to do that to flash stuff with fastboot. (or you can HTCdev unlock the stock hboot, but that would take longer)

I did, it was a question after the s-off was complete. It wouldn't say an hboot number at the fastboot screen if I didn't right?
Ok, so I guess it didn't work through the program so I did it manually, and was able to flash a recovery. Although now I can't reboot, and the phone doesn't recognize any of the sd cards in recovery. Is there a certain recovery I should use? Or how I can format the SD card from there?

Yeah I did that and flashed everything I needed to. I think it is rolling along now, you've been a great help thanks.
so i went to switch out my battery and when i turned the phone back on it vibrated and displayed the white htc screen, then went black for a second and then stays on the white htc screen forever! Im a total noob when it comes to all the technical stuff about RUU's Kernels Roms and whatnot. I can get to bootloader, but i tried to do factory reset and it showed a green circle with a loading bar but then it changed into a red triangle with an exclamation. I tried flashing amon ra recovery but it doesnt work, although TWRP works. While in TWRP though, whenever i try to flash a zip file, it fails and says something like E:failed to mount /cache E:failed to mount /system E:failed to mount /data. Please help me i need this phone working to help me at my job. If someone can walk me through what i need to do i would REALLLYYYY appreciate it. Like i said though, i am a noob so i need realy stupified instructions lol. Thanks

First you should go to shipped-roms.com and download the vigor ics ruu.exe, the rezound downloads there are under vigor . Plug your phone into your computer and from hboot highlight fastboot press power and run the .exe file from your computer and follow the on screen instructions, this will return your phone to full stock ics. Make sure you download the vigor ics ruu.exe as the GB ruu will not work with s-on.
You can also download this: http://www.androidpolice.com/2012/0...ull-ruu-build-4-03-605-2-for-the-htc-rezound/ it's the latest ruu it'll update your hboot, stock recovery, rom, and radios, to latest stock. Just download, rename the zip file to PH98IMG (don't include .zip it is a zip file it'll add it on its own in hboot) put it on your sd card, not in a folder just on. Put it back in your phone and boot to bootloader and runn the update, when it powers off. Run it again. (As it has to update the hboot to 2.27 first)Then you'll be on the stock latest. Then root and Rom from there. Of you need help pm me for my gtalk and I could walk you thru it..

So my screen is the exact same, i tried to flash a kernal for not only wrong phone but wrong carrier too. Anyways no OS, when i try to flash either of the ways you have explained they both dont work. When i put it on the sd card as PH98IMG it looks like it loads it in the upper right then thats it. regular bootload screen after that nothing happens. try to load it by opening the application after im plugged in as fasboot usb and the program says Install script setup launcher has stopped working. I have been able to flash liquids rom and looks as if it is booting but waited 24 min and nothing happpend just stayed on boot screen. So im just trying to get back to RUU then work from there.

Yes i did reinstall my HTC Sync drivers, I have been wipining factory reset, cache, system, dalvick cache before i flash a new rom. I am S-On. Havent really determined a reason to go s-off yet, i am messing up my phone good enough with this let alone a paperclip. no problem with random reboots. I finally decided to go to a custom rom bc i was sick of my phone rebooting for OTA updates then being late for work. So the 3 roms i have now tried are Liquid smooth which i liked but i couldnt get mms messages to show up on phone. Also it wouldnt change from silent to a beep for text message notifications. i could select it but it would stay as silent. So.... I flashed ViperRezROm which i just didnt like the look and theme. So i finally flashed Cyanogen ROM and come to find out its the same kernal as Liquid smooth so it looks the same and I like that but I still cant change the notification from silent to a beep for text messages. So i never know when i get a text.
Still working on trying to flash a newer version of TWRP.
Then this time flashing I tried to titanium backup and went to load my backup and it cant find it.... WTF
UGH... Learning so much with this stuff. just taking alot of patience.
Thanks again for yalls support, I love this forum.
Mike
BTW just to note...if your bootloader is locked fastboot flash methods will not work 90 percent of the time...if you flashed liquid 3.0 that's more than likely your problem with mms as that is a beta...but on more recent 4.3 builds mms is fixed...and no its not the same kernel...just similar source code...liquid 2.9 does not have this mms issue...any random reboots on 4.2 are caused by min frequency not set right at 384 mhz and using amon ra to flash or not doing a proper clean flash....I do recommend s-off as it will make life much easier for you for modding things or flashing custom zips and for future flashing back to full stock if needed as its not possible while s-on...you can always pm me for help as I've yet to run into an error I can't fix unless posted in op caused by source

There is a few good reasons to S-Off.
1.No need to fastboot flash kernels
2.can RUU if needed
3.can flash recovery updates (cwm, twrp) as ph98img zips
4. Can keep bootloader ***locked***
5. No more ***tampered*** tag after you RUU
Scenario: you are out and about (or a computer isn't handy) somehow you are in an infinite bootloop. You nandroid restore. But it is something on boot partition. Only way to fix this while S-On is fastboot flashing a boot.img, but if you were S-Off, you would have restored the boot image from the nandroid.
Edit: added 5th reason

I finally went S-OFF to help another user get step by step to restore to fully locked and stock ruu. I decided to leave it S-OFF. It's so nice to be able to just load a rom and not have to do anything else (other than wiping). It makes changing/upgrading rom's a breeze.
I highly recommend it. It seems scary, but once you have done it once, you will not go back.
But be warned, never go back to S-ON on a non-HTC hboot... you will hard brick your device. That is the only real threat I've heard about... if you never go back to S-ON, then you have absolutely nothing to worry about. Just about any error can be fixed except for going s-on on a non-ruu hboot.
Thanks

HBOOT Error "No image!" for PH98DIAG/PH98IMG after JuopunutBear s-off [HTC REZOUND]
I tried to S-OFF my phone using JuopunutBear, and I succeeded with the wire trick, but afterwards my phone would not boot up. I tried booting HBOOT and noticed the following string of errors:
SD Checking...
Loading...[PH98DIAG.zip]
No image!
Loading...[PH98DIAG.nbh]
No image or wrong image!
Loading...[PH98IMG.zip]

No image or wrong image!
Loading...[PH98IMG.tar]
No image!
Loading...[PH98IMG.aes]
No image!
Loading...[PH98IMG.enc]
No image!
I assume this meant that the kernel was somehow messed up, so I downloaded the appropriate "boot.img" file and tried flashing it using "fastboot flash boot boot.img". It successfully flashed, but the error messages still appear in HBOOT.
I am able to boot into AmonRa recovery, but I get errors at the bottom saying
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p36
(File exists)
E:Can't mount CACHE:recovery/command
...
E:Can't mount CACHE:recovery/log
...When I try to restore from my nandroid backup that I made prior to attempting to root/s-off, I get an error
E:Couldn't open directory /sdcard/nandroid/I believe this error is because of the problems in the kernel (PH98DIAG/PH98IMG files).
I cannot flash a zip from the sdcard because both the sdcard and internal_sdcard appear as completely empty no matter what I do. I have tried and successfully performed an "adb push ROM.zip /" command to put the rom onto the sdcard, but the file would not show up in AmonRa when I tried to flash a zip.
I have tried using all of the commands under the "Wipe" menu in Amon Ra. I have tried formatting data, system, and cache as both Ext3 and Ext4. I have tried using the "FACTORY RESET" command when in HBOOT. I have tried re-installing AmonRa recovery, and I have tried all of these same things using CWM, as well. None of them have produced any forward results.
I am at a loss of things to try to restore my phone to any working state... please help! I just want my phone working again at this point, rooted or not.

Thanks so much for the help! I was able to just copy the ROM file I wanted to the external SD card once it was in the PC. I reformatted the SD card first. I flashed the ROM from recovery, and it worked. When I was in recovery and hboot, it still gave me the same error messages, however. Does this mean there is still something wrong with the kernal on the internal SD card? Is there a way I can check to see if the internal SD card is working?
Thanks!

Re: HBOOT Error "No image!" for PH98DIAG/PH98IMG after JuopunutBear s-off [HTC REZOUN
When you boot to hboot it always checks for a PH98IMG.zip first and if it's not there you get regular bootloader access, if it is there you get the option to update.
You said you flashed the rom, so did you get booted ok?
Are you trying to flash something via PH98IMG.zip?
If you're s off any of the current roms have the kernel included and you just wipe completely, flash the rom and reboot.

I downloaded PH98IMG.ZIP from mediafire and saved in sd card. Inserted the sd card in phone and went to hboot. It says
Main Version is older!
Update Fail!
Press <POWER> to reboot.
Please help me immediately by giving simple instructions. I do not know where the rom is and what it is. I am unable to find the rom. Also how to know whether phone has ics or something else ? I need to get this working as it is not my phone. Also it showed only cdma option, can i get the gsm option to use in India.
The PH98IMG.zip you used is an older RUU. You need on with hboot 2.25 or newer in it since you are s-on. Since you are in India, I assume you cannot take Verizon OTA updates. So best bet is to download one of the mirrors linked below for global RUU.

The page says : 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).

It will be CDMA only until you OTA, which means having Verizon service.
Just relock the boot loader, update with global OTA leak then unlock it again.

I messed up with my data, cache and maybe system too. Please let me know whether this is the right procedure to relock the boot loader.
1. Download the fastboot tool from Slacker101 and save it to desktop of your computer.
Fastboot Tool for Rezound
2. Plug in the phone via USB cable to your computer.
3. Go to Settings > Developer Options > Make sure USB Debugging is checked ON.
4. Open the folder called tools and hold shift on your keyboard and right click in a blank area in the folder. Then select Open Command Prompt Here.
5. When the command prompt opens, type the following with hitting enter at the end of each line:
adb reboot fastboot
fastboot oem lock
The above method not happening. Tried it in hboot and now it shows
i try to push Power button and volume down button at the same time and this is what i get ;
****** TAMPERED ********
****** RELOCKED ********

Be sure to give the fastboot commands in fastboot mode. Not in ROM. First command should reboot your phone into fastboot mode

Hi, so Im this complete noob in the android department and I really need help. I have a Verizon HTC rezound 4G LTE (Korean) and its running on JB( I really dont know which ROM is it). now the thing is that as I got this from someone who was a noob himself, he didn't update the sense so its basically 3.6. I researched a bit and tried updating but my recovery would not detect the file(bootloader's unlocked though). I tried rooting the device but it said I needed something called and insecure boot image which I tried flashing but the bootloader failed to detect the img file.I really dont know what to do at the moment.
my software details:
android version-4.2.1
sense version-3.6
sofware number-4.03.605.2 710 RD
kernel version-3.0 16-g480e1b0 htc [email protected]#1
baseband version- 2.22.100801r, 2.22.10.0803r
Again, I apologize for my stupidity. help would be really appreciated

your version of sense is in the rom...you cant update the sense as its packed inside the rom...if you want updated sense...get a custom recovery and flash a newer sense rom like sun_dreams sense 4.5
Hi everyone, I've seen you guys help out so many other people I figured I'd give it a try.
My HTC Rezound is not working. I can't charge the device while off. I can't start the phone (Flashes the HTC logo, screen goes dark for one second, then stays at the HTC logo. Luckily, I have an old Thunderbolt, I have been able to charge my battery through that, and access the bootloader using the power + vol down method.
I have never rooted my Rezound and have been using stock since I got it, here is what I see in my bootloader:
***LOCKED***

EMMC-BOOT
SEP 20 2012, 17: 40: 22
Under that I see the regular Bootloader menu. I cannot use recovery, factory reset or clear storage, because it fails and I get the E: Can't mount /data/data/recovery/log error message. I tried downloading a PH98IMG.zip file, but when it tries to load it I get an error saying that the version on the phone is newer than the one on the SD card, and it won't update (Don't know if that's an issue with downloading things from before Sep 20 2012, but I havn't found anything post that). I can't use the RUU updater because my computer will not mount/ recognize my phone, I downloaded all the HTC sync stuff, and my computer beeps and says that there is something there, but it fails somewhere in the process and nothing sees it. I also tried to push it with ADB, but I get the same issues, CMD will ask me to attach the device and I can't get past it.
So that's where I am, I can get to my bootloader, but I can't do anything via the RUU exe, ph98IMG.zip file on an SD card, or ADB/Fastboot. I'm stuck.
I am willing to try anything, and will give any other information you guys need if you think you can help. Meanwhile I'm using my old cracked Thunderbolt that lost it's 4G capability, I feel dirty.
Please let me know if you can help! And thanks in advance!
If past your warranty or if you have no insurance on it. Go to the htcdev website and unlock the phone.

The fact you've kept it stock and it won't let you get past hboot or the HTC screen and you can't do anything via hboot tells me it's dead.
You have the latest hboot, there is no RUU/firmware zip available to let you re-install everything clean.
You're probably gonna have to get it replaced.

I was able to unlock it using the method on the htcdev website.... what can I do with it now? Bootloader looks the same, but says **UNLOCKED** at the top of the screen.

Download TWRP at http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2102623&d=1373341752
Extract the .zip and place the .img file in the same folder as fastboot. Use fastboot to flash it. The command is going to be fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Once you done that. use command fastboot boot recovery.img
Go to backup and create a backup
After that finishes backing up. Download http://vp-zp.com/snuzzo/kernels/rezound/sense/Funky-Kernel-v3.7.3.zip and place it on your sdcard. You can mount your usb drive inside TWRP recovery.
After you have copied it over. Install that zip from the sdcard and it should go through the steps of being s-on since you are s-on. Then reboot phone

When I ran fastboot boot recovery.img the phone when dark for a second, went back to the fastboot menu, but now at the top of the screen above ***UNLOCKED*** there is a *** TAMPERED*** but no recovery menu. Is this ok?
EDIT: I went into recovery and see the new menu. will update once finished.

That is fine saying TAMPERED. Just means you have something custom flashed. Hit the power button and go into HBOOT. Then select recovery in the list.

Well, I sincerely appreciate the effort. It seems like the internal storage somehow got damaged, can't imagine how that happened. At least I have a thunderbolt to keep me until I find a new phone. It could be worse.

Just out of curiosity. Did you try doing a Factory Reset in that white HBOOT screen before we started this process?

Yeah, same as anything else, can't mount E.
In TWRP try to mount internal storage when plugged into a PC. See if formatting would work.

It doesn't sound like your internal storage is completely toast. You are able to boot into the hboot partition and the recovery partition, the others may be corrupt and reflashing the recent RUU may help. Try to s-off to be able to RUU recent and older RUU zips (stock IMGs)

There's no recent RUU to flash, that's part of the problem, none came out for the OTA update and you also need a running rom installed to s-off.
OP - What happens if you try to format the partitions via TWRP?

Won't mount anything to format, just will say can't read. I can however go through the file tree. Somehow the internal memory got semi-fried. I don't know what happened.
im having a very similar problem except none of my computers will recognize my phone so i cant re-unlock my bootloader any suggestions
