I need help. Normally I never ask questions I perfer to scan the forum looking for answers but this is my first question.
So we all know by now there is a leaked ICS Rom for the HTC Amaze. Well I downloaded the RUU put it at the root of the external SD and loaded it in hboot. Hboot starts the normal routine of looking for images to flash and dismissing all the missing ones. When it comes to PH85IMG it will stop the sidebar will take a minute to slowly load to full and the following result would say:
Loading...[PH85IMG.zip]
Wrong zipped image!
then it will finish the routine and essentually dismiss. After that all I can do is return to normal use
Phone info:
T-mobile HTC Amaze 4G rooted S-ON
Android 2.3.7/ Sense 3.5
Faux's v009 Kernal
thanks kindly for the help developers.

I think the only way for someone S-on to install this update is to return the phone back to stock. you have to revert your bootloader back to locked and make the phone stock again.
In that case I guess it's about time to reach S-OFF. To those reading I'll give the result.

I just went through the whole s-off procedure and was able to flash the image after that. I didn't revert back to stock. I guess that was my problem too, but everything is working fine with ICS so far.
I relocked the bootloader and was able to get ICS.
kinda sad though im about to root it just to get rid of the bloat apps . Umm I hope others can use this as guide.
Please help!!! cannot flash ics rue
Hey! I have a similar problem. I have relocked the boot loader, NO root, S-ON... basically the only thing I did was unlocking and relocking the bootloader.
I copied the zip file in the ext-sd folder. In Hboot mode it scans the sdcard but a "NO image or wrong zip image" appears... So I reboot normally....
Now a strange thing happens and the zip file i copied onto the sdcard is 0Kb!!!! I tried several times... can sameone help me?
BTW I have a external sd card intalled (actually is one form another phone formatted as fat 32) + the internal memory.
thanks!

Make sure the zip you have is good and make sure the SD card is good. strange that you place a 487mb file and it changes to 0kb on its own. try formatting the
SD and try again or try using a different one.
I would re-copy the zip to your sd card again.

Hello,
I have tried reading all of the stickies (and list of stickies post) for a method to downgrade hboot 1.58 without success. My ultimate goal is to be able to flash a custom recovery so that I can try the radio fix since my wife's Evo 3D will not complete the hands free activation and she does not get data services. We took the phone to the Sprint store and they said the previous owner flashed SOMETHING to the phone and messed up the radio. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You need to do the wire trick. Its simple. Search for the guide on here and download the required stuff. Look at the video then follow the guide. After you have s-off then you download the hboot you want and put it on the SD card and flash.
There isn't another method to putting a custom recovery on the phone? I just want to fix this hands free activation failing.

Don't be afraid of trying the wire trick - it really isn't that frightening as long as you follow instructions. I managed to do it on my first go, much to my exhilaration
If the previous owner flashed something onto the phone then does it have some sort of recovery on it?

Rename it PG86IMG.zip and place it on the root of your sd card. Reboot to bootloader and follow the prompts. Restart phone. You may need to take the card out and remove the zip from the sd card if you get a bootloop.

Make sure the file is in the root of the SD card and is named exactly "PG86IMG.zip" with the caps and without the quotes. Sometimes an extra ".zip" gets added when the file is downloaded to Windows and copied over, so it's best to check it with a file manager such as ES File Explorer on the phone.
Also, when you first start the bootloader it may not scan the card until you press the power button once to select fastboot.
Edit: I see you edited your last post and you've figured it out.

You probably need to flash a ROM that is compatible with the bootloader you just installed. If you've removed the PG86IMG.zip file from the SD card you should be able to start recovery from the bootloader and flash a ROM. If you are using 4EXT, you will probably need to format cache+dalvik before it will let you do anything else.

All of those issues sound like a bad kernel flash. If you do the wire trick, flashing kernels is easier too.
I have an HTC Rezound I have had since launch day. I unlocked the device via HTC Dev site, rooted and installed Clean Rom Developers Edition sometime in May 2012. I have been running this rom since. I have decided to sell the phone on ebay and want to return it to stock for the new purchaser. I downloaded what I thought and hoped was the ICS ruu, renamed it to the PH128.zip (or whatever it is actually supposed to be named), put it on the root of the SD card. Then I downloaded Hasoon's all in one tool kit so i could first "relock" my bootloader. I clicked the relock bootloader button while connected via the usb cable and in the bootloader, and it ran the commands and relocked the bootloader. It now says "relocked". I then clicked bootloader, the phone booted into the bootloader and appeared as though it was loading the zip file, but then nothing happens. Now no matter what I do the phone will only boot into the bootloader and nothing else happens.
Where did I go wrong? What is my remedy? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

It recognized the ruu file on the sd card. It began to load, the little loading bar on the right of the screen loaded once, then twice, and then it should say hit volume up to apply the update but it never did. It just went right back to the same hboot screen. same options. I try to go to recovery and it only reboots to the same hboot screen. It wont do anything. I am trying to download the ruu exe file now and see if that will work. Any suggestions?

You're probably using an RUU that has lower main version or lower hboot version than what you currently have on the device.
Here's a guide meant for the HTC Sensation. Read through it, the procedure for Amaze is similar: http://tinyurl.com/RUUGuide

I'm pretty sure you need to re-lock your phone and then flash a RUU. You will be on un-rooted, bone-stock ICS. I recommend that you use a T-Mobile RUU.
To do this you need to have ADB installed on your computer. Open up ADB in command prompt (navigate to the platform tools folder) and then hold shift and right click. You should see an option to open a command Window.
When it's open type in " fastboot oem lock ".
That should lock your bootloader. You can now download a RUU and flash it in the bootloader. Just rename it to "PH85IMG". It should be a zip format. Put it on your external SD card and let it flash in bootloader.
You can also find RUUs here. Chose the one for your native carrier, if your phone is unbranded, I recommend the T-mobile one.

When it says locked it's locked. When it's unlock it may say unlocked or juopunutbear on the top heading in the bootloader.

I'm sure that whether your bootloader is (re)locked or not, it has to flash the ROM anyway. The problem will come later when you try to boot the ROM cause it will fail.

Try to reflash the RUU and if problem persist then the problem should be in your battery.

I'm trying to do that with an old Amaze I have. I have a Wind version so I downloaded a Wind (Globalive) RUU. Do I still need to rename it to PH85IMG ? Also it came into an exe. file and not a zip, but there is an OTA available that is a zip file. Will a exe file still flash in the bootloader? Thanks in advance

Well it should work exactly the same way. You still have to rename it to PH85IMG since it's device specific not carrier specific.
But if your RUU is an exe I think you have a different type of RUU. For that type, it's a software that updates your phone connected to a USB. For that, you need to connect your amaze to the computer and run the RUU installer. This might be your only option if wind doesn't have any other RUUS.
Another easy way is to go to the development section, and look for the thread by krook which has a collection of RUUS. It's on the 3rd page I think. Download the latest ICS one, rename it to PH85IMG and put it on your external SD (not in any folders) and it will flash in the bootloader.
There is also the Windroid toolkit which just got fixed and updated so that can help assist with the file pushing.

Another easy way is to go to the development section, and look for the thread by krook which has a collection of RUUS. It's on the 3rd page I think. Download the latest ICS one, rename it to PH85IMG and put it on your external SD (not in any folders) and it will flash in the bootloader.
There is also the Windroid toolkit which just got fixed and updated so that can help assist with the file pushing.

If it's an exe (the one that has an installer and all that Jazz), then no. Just connect your Amaze to the PC and let it do the work.
For the manual updating method, you need a micro sd.

what exactly did you do to update the radio/hboot?
commands, files?
I used DNA toolkit...and flashed hboot 2.06 and 2.04 and radios. I'll be very honest and say that I don't remember everything I flashed !

Personally I wouldn't use the DNA toolkit. There's a link in torrented signature that has everything you need .. hboot. Radio's. I think recoverys. Bookmark it.
Have you tried to Ruu I'm not sure if that will effect the sd card or not. That is if you have fastboot working

The RUU is the one thing i haven't tried yet. I guess i didnt know if it was necessary to flash the RUU when doing a HBOOT flash. I guess i am still needing to figure out how to get the phone to mount card internally and when i connect to laptop. Thank you for taking the time to respond.

A RUU isn't necessary to flash a hboot. I was staying run a RUU because it will put everything back to stock and will hopefully fix the sdcard error.
