That ph85img.zip file does nothing when I go into the bootloader it reads it then after it says its parsing for bout 5 secs then its done there was no instructions when I reboot my phone is the same it didn't do anything I did a screen shot of what firmware I'm on after I did it

Get the stock tells ruu
Rename it PH85IMG.zip ....(not ph85img) It iS CAsE SENSItivE... Put it on the root of external sd card...
Boot to bootloader... It will do everything automatically.
P's.. Root does not cause these problems a bad flash and not having soff are the main culprit on Canadian phones
Sig:
What do you mean I can't say that??!!.. It's the fkin Internet!
I had it as PH85IMG well anyways I removed root but just using the supersu now I just need to replace my custom Rom somehow is there a telus ota update that I can flash using 4ext this is the last step to being completely factory that PH85IMG.ZIP doesn't work and it was the telus I tried it 10 times it doesn't do anything

Hey there,
So I rooted and rommed an Amaze 4g for a friend of mine like 6 months ago, the phone is only unlocked but not S-OFF.
He just wants to go back to stock & frankly im tired of the lifetime tech support - so its a win win.
I put him on GB Android revolution, i believe that's a stock rom with a few tweaks.
Can I just update the phone to the Latest TRUE ICS and be done with it?
I could care less if it relocks the phone & unroots it. I just wanna be done with it.
Thanks in advance.

Na, you'll have to flash back to stock GB, just download one of the stock GB RUU'S and flash it via the bootloader, do the ics update from android via ota.
OK I just downloaded the stock gb ruu. You mean flash it in cwm or rename the zip and do an update.zip?

Rename the file PH85IMG and place it on your sd card, not in any folders, just on the sd, reboot into your bootloader (should know how to get this), the hboot will auto detect the file, when it's done scanning it, just hit volume up to flash it, give it a few, it's gonna install and auto reboot.

Thanks for your response. However after HBOOT loads everything, it just goes back to the little androids on skateboards and doesn't ask to update.
What to do?
Relock bootloader and try again.

Hey Guys,
I just bought a brand new HTC Amaze unbranded (without any carrier branding). Now I tried updating the phone to ICS but unfortunately no official ICS update is available. I have a version where I get to choose south asian languages at start up, I don't know if this would help.
Anyways, I tired rooting my phone through the following method:
1- Unlocked the bootloader via HTCDev method.
2- Flashed the 4eXT recovery via Hasoon2000 tool kit, after which I had the SuperSU app on my phone.
3- Flashed Cyanogenmod 10 Nightly ROM (Latest available on their website).
The installation was successful, however when the phone boots up to the Home screen it works fine for precisely 10secs and then it freezes and reboots and this happens until I remove the battery. However if the phone boots up to the Home page and I do not unlock the phone it would not go off, but will freeze and reboot once I unlock!!. My phone is still S-ON. Please let me know if there is anything I can do to fix it.
Thanks

OK there is one more thing that I tried while I was waiting for a solution, I downloaded a Stock ICS RUU and renamed it to PH85IMG.zip and then boot it to HBOOT where it picked up the file and started installing, after install it was stuck on the HTC logo. Now as per your suggestion I suggestion I should simply download a GB Stock and flash it the same way I did with the ICS RUU correct?....and would you have a recommendation which one should I flash?

Just a FYI ravike14, I already have the 4EXT recovery on my phone, if you refer to my previous post....should I install the recovery once again and then go with the method described?
Oh and I even downloaded a Shipped GB ROM for Amaze which was in a .exe format and try to flash it, but it gave me an error 107 USB something error.

I had a similar issue it was fixed by 1relocking the boot loader 2 flash the stock GB RUU file and 3flashing a custom recovery 4ext. I had the help of hasoons AIO toolkit. It made everything easier. Once I was on the GB RUU and all partitions formatted correctly I then flashed a ICS RUU and did the same process.
Your problem sounds like your partitions are corrupted and the kernel didnt stick.
I know this has been posted before, but my particular circumstance after reading through many threads has not been covered (as far as i know). I normally flash A LOT of new roms because i'm a bit of a ROM junkie and am always interested in all of you wonderful developers creations. So after flashing may 1000th rom, CM10.1, many times and getting bootloops, i decided to give up and restore the fully functional CM10 I was using prior. Well, after MANY numerous ways of restoring my back up, others roms, stock OEM RUU's/Zips, and bootloader NOTHING will get my phone to get past the WHITE HTC LOGO SCREEN!!!
I at one point couldn't access or mount my internal SD, o kept getting an error message so I connected it to windows and it was recognized and windows prompted me to format the internal SD card because it was "corrupted", so I did and tried flashing again through all the above methods and STILL NOTHING. Now every time i boot into recovery, it sometimes takes 50+ seconds to load or if it does load quicker it says i'm in "safe mode" or "enable 4EXT'S ADVANCED SETTINGS". I'm sorry that this si lengthy, but i'm stumped. Can anyone help me????
When I was on evervolv all my partitions were corrupted according to 4ext. No rom would flash. The only way I was able to recover was to downgrade to an official T-Mobile GB RUU. Once I did that everything was fine and dandy again. Hopefully if you do the same it works for you.
Thank you, I am going to try this today and see if it helps. Did you just put the RUU on the root of the external SD or was it and exe file??
Thanks again for your help!!!

No the ruu should be a zip file not an exe. The ruu's I used are for T-Mobile.
Since your S-Off you should be able to do downgrade and upgrade at will. Sounds like your partitions are messed up. Also make sure your SuperCID as well.
Downgrade your amaze to a GB RUU 1.43.531.3
Check MD5 SUMS
Rename it to PH85IMG.zip
Place on your External SD CARD
Reboot phone into bootloader
Let Phone find update and apply update
Let Phone reboot
If that worked and your able to use your phone
Repeat Steps 1 - 8 and use ICS RUU 2.14.531.3 instead of the GB RUU.
You can't flash an ICS Rom if your firmware is still GB.
Also if you want to get the latest update from T-Mobile that address wifi calling and updates your Firmware and Radio for better battery life and reception follow my guide here

I am having the exact problem as OP but I am S-on, what extra steps do I need to take? Thanks for your help.
EDIT: Since I can't allegedly go backwards from JB/ICS to GB when S-on, the only solution I was able to arrive to on my own accord was to format the internal SD in 4ext. Once I did that 4ext was able to see both internal and ext sd and I was able to flash to my heart's content. I think it was a misaligned partition or something. Fortunately everything on the internal SD was backed up already but in the future is there an easier way to do this without formatting sdcard? I re-locked my phone and tried to flash the latest T-Mobile Stock ICS RUU by renaming it to PH85IMG.zip and letting the bootloader flash it but I still got stuck at the white HTC screen at boot.

ive got the same thing going on, mine is s-on boot loader unlocked. i dont have super cid. ive tried the stock ruu t-moblie gb. in boot loader it reads it but afterwards nothing. ive even tried relocking the bootloader and trying that way, that way is a little differnt. if you relock bootloader then it will force itself in fastboot every time you try to turn it on or plug usb in from your pc. but you cant get into 4ext recovery.fastboot will read that ph85img.zip. and will try to update, but it fail and say cid incorect. but if you unlock your bootloader agein then your can get back into 4ext, but then your just at square one agein. idk im sumped. if any one can help that would be a life saver.

You have 2 options here
1. check your cid version download the appropriate ruu for it I've posted a unbranded version ruu in krooks thread and run it while the bootloader is locked..
2. Go to 4ext download a FLASHABLE ROM a gb rom NOT a ruu and flash it from 4ext and turn on smart flash before doing it ...
Either way you get a working device

it's pretty much that no threads i'm afraid :/ just flash 4ext then put the rom.zip in your ext sd card then go to tools and enable smart flash since your s on then go to install from sd card>>choose zip from sd card>> then select your zip and flash it if you stuck in a bootloop flash faux kernel while enabling smart flash or flash the stock kernel with aio kit
your welcome i prefer the thanks button tho

Still no luck in getting past the splash screen
Well it's been a while since I've posted back on this thread, but I have tried everything that was suggested and i STILL can't get the phone to boot past the HTC Splash screen. I tried flashing many different RUU zips (all renamed PH85IMG) as well as custom ROMS (gingerbread and ICS based) and nothing gets the phone to boot up! They install, but after the phone reboots it's still a no-go. I just don't know what to do anymore. The only thing i can think of is my bootloader is still unlocked, could that have anything to do with this? Like I said earlier my phone is S-ON which makes things more difficult. I'm really hopeless for a solution.
I even mounted the internal and external SD's to the computer and reformatted them. Still doesn't help. Also, my recovery, which is 4EXT, always says i'm in "safe mode" and i have to do something to put it in advanced mode? Please someone help!:crying:

Hello, I desperately would like to see how to put my HTC Amaze back to stock. A couple of months ago I tried putting it back to stock because the energy rom kept rebooting on me and draining my battery life randomly. Anyways I was not successful and so I just kept the rom and the rebooting problems stopped anyways. Now, its happening again and I would really love for some one to help me get it back to stock so I can see if it improves and maybe get the thing S-OFF later. I am with Wind mobile.
Any help is greatly appreciated,
A frustrated amaze user.

Hey thanks for the response. So I locked the bootloader and then got the wind RUU renamed it as PH85img.zip or w/e its supposed to be. And now when in the boot screen it cannot find my file I then tried another RUU but this time is used the exe wind one but that one failed as well and came up as an error saying the hboot version is older then what im flashing or something?
So I am stuck at this point. Do you know how to get around this?
Make sure the ruu is on the root of the sd card

Yeah it was connected via usb. I got somewhere, now but im am hoping you can tell me what i need to do now. I followed the second post here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2167596 and now I have GB rom on my phone running unlocked. What do I need to do from here so I can S-off and super CID? PS I tried doing an OTA update from the phone and it wont work.
Looking into the S-off guide it says i must be on a stock RUU. is the one i got install a stock RUU. Also my hboot version is 1.93.0002 (Mar 15 2012) which is ice cream sandwich according to the Unlimited.IO site, but the RUU im on is definitely gingerbread. What can I do about this?

What is your android version in settings?? Cuz what your telling is kinda weird
Sent from my HTC_Amaze_4G using xda premium
Adroid Version: 2.3.4
HTC Sense version: 3.0
Software number 1.43.531.3
am I completely screwed now? Cause it seems i wont be able to get S-off or CID off while not on this unsigned rom (t-mobile), i am with Wind. The OTA does not work while on the phone (settings > software update). Would locking my bootloader and then loading the latest OTA zip from wind on the SD card work? I am very stuck!

well choice is yours your android version says GB hboot says ICS :/ i say try the GB s-off tool but do at your own risk...
well S-Off worked so thats good haha. Now i am trying to super CID. However, when uploading the proper hboot for doing so it wont let me because of the CID.
Ignore that last post. I figured it out so all is good. Now here is another question, should i flash CM10.1 or your rom that viper one? How would I go about flashing a rom. I remembered before you would just go into recovery and then format all execpt sd card and then install from zip. I tried that with the CM10.1 rom and when I rebooted it did not work.
went ahead and tried installing the Viper rom and after i reboot (when it said all was good) it show a black screen with green arrows. And its stuck on that. I do not know what to do now. Because I should have everything open. Was I supposed to flash something after doing the S-OFF?
This is what I am getting stuck on. I tried another rom too, same thing. I can boot into 4ext. But cant get past this on boot up.
