Soft bricked the amaze with no recoveries. - HTC Amaze 4G

I had corrupted ROMs right after trying evervolv rom. Anyone have the original gingerbread and ICS ruu? The ones I found online seem to be corrupted as I get the "sd card has been disconnected" message every time I try to put it on the SD card ( have tried 3 different SD cards and all of the ruus found here). Also some have been taken down as I guess the NFC amaze development is a ghost town now .

I was on TWRP, but tried to fastboot 4ext but it won't work and now a recovery never loads. I am S-On. Can I still downgrade to gingerbread being S-On?

Must have been another JB rom, I lost track testing all the roms haha.

I'm okay now running Viper ICS rom. I didn't have to S-OFF and return to stock. However, WiFi stopped working and I tried to re-flash the faux kernel using smartflash in 4ext but to no avail.

You have to get s-off and downgrade boot. Lots of guides on how to do this. Try searching.

Which hboot did you flash? Have you flashed the latest (2.89.651.2) firmware? Did you use 4EXT recovery and "format all partitions except SD card"?

Ramjet, I flashed hboot 1.50 and I'm using 4 ext recovery. Now about the firmware, do I need to flash the latest? The crazy thing is, I had lens jb rom and working great. But the Google voice was getting on my nerves. So I thought it was the rom. I flashed back to SOS M thinking I can get rid of goggle voice and still there. Well long story short, I disable Google voice and now when I try to flash back lens jb rom, it stays on boot loop.

It would be a good idea to update to the current firmware (from the 2.89.651.2 build) if you haven't already, but I doubt that's your problem. Make sure to do a "format all partitions except SD card" in 4EXT right before flashing the JB ROM. Do not do a superwipe script as the latest AOSP ROM's don't seem to like that.

htc amaze bricked!!!

ok my phone is s-on on hboot 1.90.0008 and it has an unlocked bootloader with 4ext recovery.
i tryed going back to stock with ruu (videotron) but it fails
i tryed changing roms and its just stuck on a bootloop. so far i tryed 3 different roms with no luck
i dont know what to do
any help will be appreciated
thx
Make sure your RUU is properly named and put it on the root of your SD card.
Lock your bootloader by adb command "OEM LOCK" From your pc's command prompt. This will lock your bootloader (and will erase everything)
When you reboot to your bootloader, it will scan for your ph85img.zip (I think I remember thats what its called... its been a while) and it will flash the update.
Hope this helps... if not... I recommend http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1679486 this thread. Goodnight

The problem is that the ruu i have is an EXE file for videotron. Cant find any videotron ruu in zip format. Do you know if i can flash an ruu from a different provider like tmobile maybe?
Thx again

Incorrect info by GS3G. Since you are S-On, you can't downgrade to the Gingerbread RUU. You need to have S-Off so you can downgrade to the GB RUU

Have you ever successfully ran an ICS ROM on the phone before? What ROM were you on BEFORE this happened?
Yea i had ics rom from the guy i bought it from and it worked. the 4ext recovery was also installed but idk what rom it was. i asked him like 2 hours ago ill see what he response back and tell you but if it was running a custom rom with ics i cant see why it wouldnt run another...
All i did when it was working was wipe data and dalvik then installed energy rom 8.1 then flashed the boot.img with pc
Did i do something wrong?

Can't flash sense 4.0 or higher after flashing a aosp Rom.

So after flashing aosp Rom I can't seem to flash anything other than sense 3.6 roms. Why I try I get a constant booting. I'm s-on and also I've noticed the roms with kernel zip built in. The PH98IMG doesn't install on ad card. But zips flashed in recovery do. Also bootfast isn't working either, even tho phone is recognized by computer. Any help would be appreciated on this thanks in advance.

if you can't get to fastboot then you have the zip from another file on there. delete that then in order to get that certain rom to work you have to extract the roms boot.img and fastboot flash on pc.

Personally I don't know if that would help, well....actually I don't see why it wouldn't cuz the s-off process will wipe everything.. I'd say do it and flash somethin fresh, don't nandroid after.. try a sense 4 Rom fresh.. if it still doesn't go id try flashjg another aosp Rom that is known not to cause this problem your havig, then try flashing s4 again.. I'm really curious as to why this is happening.. I'm not sure if any of this would help but these are the steps I personally would take to try and trouble shoot..

Crazy is, the problem seems to be something to do with kernels. I can only flash one all others even funky kernel with install thru fastboot, but the out come is the same. Continuous booting. At this point I don't see S-_OFF will fix the problem either. I ruued twice factory reset and used Scott's ten wipe and clean installs only to in up with the same out come.

You cannot run ruu. There is not one for hboot 1.58.
You need to flash a Rom, like harmonia
Then get soff
Then if you need to, you can run ruu
Why do you need to run ruu in the first place? Maybe we should start with that

also when i tried to flash a new rom it unsuccessful,and i wanted to kno if i can just download someones backup and use that,and if i can where to get it
