I'm getting no voice nor data signal except for roaming. Wiping the ROM and flashing a different one (I tried CM9, currently on CM10.1) didn't help. I fear for the worst, because RUU-ing isn't an option since Fastboot isn't working for me at all so I can't re-lock. Anyone have any ideas?
edit: What I did: made a Ubuntu live USB drive. Fastboot worked on Ubuntu so I was able to RUU. RUU fixed my problem.

Verizon. Basically with Fastboot, Windows says "USB device not recognized", and device manager says "Device enumeration failed". Multiple OS installs, multiple USB ports, multiple computers. From what I can tell, Fastboot ain't gonna work anymore. I'm currently on Windows 8.1 with Koush's universal drivers installed, and using the Android SDK that came with Android Studio. Going to try the latest Sense 3.6 stock ROM and see what happens.

can't get any Sense ROM to flash either... I think I'm just going to put CM10.1 back on, hopefully when I wake up tomorrow it'll just have been a service outage in my area. If not, well... new phone for me I guess
edit: odd, Speedtest.net is showing that I'm on LTE (Verizon being the only one in the US with 700Mhz LTE) and my external IP address is in 70.0.0.0/8 which is a Verizon-owned address space. Maybe I am on Verizon but it just thinks it's roaming.
Try S-Off and RUU. You can on AOSP as long as you RUU right after (do not put PH98 RUU on SD card until after S-Off, I had to reformaty SD card).
I just recently ran JB 0.1 windows version while on 2.28 Hboot and Infection (CM10.1 based ROM). My boot partition went wonky, but I was able to downgrade RUU ad it fixed everything. With S-Off you have no worry about needing to do fastboot.

Make sure you have the latest HTC driver installed. Use a USB 2.0 port, make sure that HTC Sync is not installed on your computer, and that your computer antivirus is off.
You can get the latest driver in the link below. Use the HTC driver from post #2.

Also, it may take a few attempts before Moonshine is successful. On the phone I recently Moonshined, it took a few tries before it succeeded, and I had everything set up correctly.

I've been running into the same issues! It keeps getting stuck on the second step! I've been following all your suggestions you posted in my other thread as well. At least it got me to the second step in Moonshine.
All HTC drivers were removed and the new ones were reinstalled. Computer and phone rebooted, USB 2.0 port, etc... I even went to another PC and ran into the same problems. I'll try it some more since you said it took a few tries.
Edit: Now it won't establish a connection to complete the first step in fastboot even though the PC keeps making sounds when fastboot USB gets turned on

You have to use a live CD with Dirty Racun if you are running Windows. To answer your second question, no, you can't use terminal emulator on your phone, either. Please be careful with what you're doing, otherwise you risk having an expensive paperweight in your hand. Personally I would have gone the Moonshine route It's Windows friendly and you don't have to fool with any commands, other then checking device connection with ADB & fastboot.

Yeah I know. I'm being really careful with everything - reading up before I do ANYTHING. I've done this to several phones before, but never had this much trouble...
Do you know if it's possible to still use Moonshine at this point? I've gone through every single step for DirtyRacun except for #14 which is to run RabiesShot. I have the RUU for 3.15 HBOOT 2.09 installed and running fine right now. If I can use Moonshine (and actually get it to connect to the device now), I would rather do that.

Make sure you're doing a full system wipe in recovery prior to flashing the ROM. You also might want to try opening a command prompt in your ADB tools folder while in the bootloader and type the command "fastboot erase cache" (minus quotation marks) and hit enter. Make sure you're connected via fastboot USB first.

refer to my s-off guide here in the rezound q&a forums...the windows version.which im assuming your trying to use was ONLY meant for ICS and was removed because the windows version hard bricked one too many devices
Edit: as you are on gingerbread that too was produced by verizon and htc....same as pure stock ics....you can also get a non verizon sense based ics rom on here which runs much better than verizons gingerbread or ics
You think it would be easier to s-off with or without taking the OTA update?

You don't really have a choice here... You have Amon Ra (a custom recovery) so even if you take the OTA it won't install, OTA updates require a stock recovery.
The Windows S-OFF method will only work with ICS (there was no GB version), so you could install the 3.14.605.12 RUU first (this will give you a stable ICS version installed), but with the messages you are getting it sounds like you have a driver or USB issue, or perhaps Fastboot enabled (not the same as fastboot from the bootloader) or USB Debugging not turned on.
Be very cautious with the Windows ControlBear, @REV3NT3CH is correct, it was removed because it bricked a lot of phones, it was never stable... it works for most people, but there are circumstances that if put together correctly will brick you device permanently. You could try the Linux method, it is the only official way and there is a GB version on http://unlimited.io/juopunutbear.htm that will work with your device.
TBH, I'd not even bother. I'd look into seeing why ADB/Fastboot doesn't work right. First I'd uninstall HTC Sync (should have been called HTC Stync LOL).

Okay, well, here is where I get confused. When I s-off'd 2 years ago it was on gingerbread and I still have the old juopunutbear program so in theory everything should be the same. To my knowledge, I can't figure out a way to toggle debugging on GB. Oh, can anyone link me to (literally) from start to finish, every single download I will need to successfully s-off given the specs that I've provided that I'm working with? I would appreciate it more than you know because I must be doing something wrong. Thanks!!

I will be honest, I have used the Windows utility every time, it hasn't failed me yet, once I have gotten to that point and the wire trick failed, it should continue to prompt you to do the trick or tell you what to do... Just run ControlBear again, it should take you to the point where you do the wire trick again, if not, look at the ControlBear Troubleshooting page on unlimited.io

Actually, you are almost there... if you are stuck in Fastboot, try this from step #2, remember you are in Windows, so you might have to copy files into and issue the commands from the appropriate directory instead of using "sudo":
There are three ways to recover your ROM. Try each one in until you succeed:
Open the cmd prompt that is located in your ControlBear folder where you unzipped all of the files.
Type the following cmds into the cmd prompt.
1. ControlBear -r (This is run with the phone at the JuopunutBear/Arrow screen) If this succeeds recovery is complete otherwise continue to Step 2.
2. ControlBear -f (This is run with the phone at the fastboot screen). If this succeeds you're done otherwise continue to Step 3.
3. fastboot flash boot boot_backup.img
4. fastboot flash recovery recovery_backup.img (This is done with the phone in fastboot mode) If this succeeds continue to Step 5.
5. Boot the phone to android and install busybox from the market if not already installed.
6. sudo ./adb push sdcard.img /data/local/tmp/
7. sudo ./adb shell
8. $ su
9. # busybox dd if=/data/local/tmp/sdcard.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk1 conv=notrunc
10. Reboot the phone.

Okay so I have been trying to root and I have tried everything I can find.
I have a fully upgraded phone so Revolutionary won't work for me out of the box and so I am trying to HTCDev unlock.
The problem though, is that I can't get Windows 8.1 to recognize my device. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers multiple times trying to get it to work. ADB works fine and can see the Thunderbolt but fastboot will not.
Nothing I have found has changed anything.
I also have a laptop with Ubuntu, would that work better?
You need to do it from a Windows 7 or lower computer. In order for the bolt to be seen in fastboot on Windows 8 it would require an update to the fastboot drivers on the phone which is very very unlikely.

That is exactly what I needed to know. You need to go to infectedrom.com and use the guide that is there to unlock and s off. The problem with what you posted earlier is that even if you unlock with HTCdev your hboot is going to prevent revolutionary from working. You have to downgrade your hboot in order to use Revolutionary.

Okay, so I'm almost to the end...I'm to the point of putting the .19 ROM on my sd card and loading it into hboot.
What happens is that it recognizes it, loads it, checks it, and then goes back to hboot.
The suggestions from the post I am following say to try reformatting the SD card, or a different image. I have done both. Any other suggestions?
And by the way, thank you so much for your help, I really appreciate it.

Okay, so I'm almost to the end...I'm to the point of putting the .19 ROM on my sd card and loading it into hboot.
What happens is that it recognizes it, loads it, checks it, and then goes back to hboot.
The suggestions from the post I am following say to try reformatting the SD card, or a different image. I have done both. Any other suggestions?
And by the way, thank you so much for your help, I really appreciate it.

Make sure you don't have the file named PG05IMG.zip.zip
Windows, by default, hides well known file extensions, so it may have gotten zip attached to it twice, one of which is not visible.
So remove the visible ".zip" extension and try again...

Done. Still the same result. Goes through loading the file, checking the file, and then just back to hboot.
I'm having the same issue. Does anyone have a GOOD copy of this Zip?
Hello all, I've just recently recovered my DNA back to stock from a botched ROM install on the 3.06 software. Prior to running the RUU, I used Rumrunner to unlock my bootloader to put CWM on as my recovery. Then I had to re-lock it to run the RUU. Now I'm stuck at re-unlocking it. The HTCdev site is giving me a MID not allowed error and I'm thinking it has something to do with the fact that I used Rumrunner? Call me stupid, the DNA is still relatively new to me. Thank you!!
You shouldn't need to relock it to RUU. The RUU will overwrite your recovery with stock but the bootloader should remain unlocked (and s-off if you did that as well). At this point you should be able to just run rumrunner again to unlock the bootloader and then you can flash a custom recovery and go from there.

Tried doing Rumrunner again, Getting this error, "ERROR: run rumrunner again and READ (no adb connection to device. Debugging on?
Drivers?)" I've uninstalled the drivers via device manager, let windows 7 reinstall them and installed/uninstalled HTCsync with no luck.
Edit: Nevermind, tried a different cable. Hate it when that happens.
Edit 2: Rumrunner must have failed, device still relocked.

Does 'adb devices' show your serial number? Did you enable debugging in the developer options?

ADB Devices is a command issued from the command prompt. It should return the S/N of the device connected. If there is no response the drivers are not installed on the PC. If you are using Win 8 or 8.1 you will have issues

Not too familiar with running that command. I'm new to the whole HTC scene. My Note 2 was significantly easier to work with in this respect.

Hı, have you find out a solution to this one ?
I am struggling with a similar situation:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=51140962
I did, sorry for not posting it here. I went and got a new cable from tiger direct and tried again. For some reason, the bootloader still says relocked but I have root access. I don't feel confident enough to try and see if CWM or TWRP and I don't want to go through the RUU garbage again. Shoot me a PM and I'll tell you everything what not to do. LOL

I have heard if you flash a new hboot the relocked text will go away, but I haven't had this issue myself so I can't personally confirm it. I do recommend updating your hboot and radio, though, for other reasons like better radio signal.

Updating the hboot and radio seems a little daunting. Definitely something I want to look in to once I can figure out how to get a ROM on this without calling a mulligan and starting from scratch again.

Adb is universal to all android devices, I highly recommend getting used to it if you plan on rooting future devices, the only thing native to HTC is the S-OFF portion of eMMC

Are you S-OFF? If so issue this command in fastboot:
fastboot oem writecid 22222222
Go to htcdev.com and then it will allow you to unlock the bootloader also make sure you have 8 2's in the command.
Hey all, I'm trying to help a friend. He has Beanstalk installed with the partitions. Things have been working great. Today the phone rebooted and went to recovery, asking for a password. I'm assuming it thinks things are encrypted or something. The SD card reads fine on a computer. It will not format anything as nothing is mounted. I tried a factory reset from the boot loader menu and it just freezes the phone.
I've looked around and can't seem to find anyone with the same problem.

Your internal SD is corrupted. There is no fix that I know of. You'll have to format. Try to get as much data off as possible before doing so.

I did try to format data but it failed, in recovery that is.

Yes, but it's just as easy to mount the internal memory via recovery and format with a PC.

No internal storage will mount at all. I tried on my Mac, Windows and Linux...no joy.

I suggest running the latest RUU then. Hit the top link in my sig and scroll down to the bottom of the OP. The link to the latest RUU (version .4) can be found there.

I've tried the latest RUU and when it starts the process, and get's to waiting for Bootloader the phone shuts down (from bootloader/fastboot usb), and does not turn back on, then the program errors out.
I also tried ViperRUU and when it gets to preparing the phone shuts down and nothing happens.
I also tried renaming the rom.zip folder in the ViperRUU to PJ75IMG.zip and placing it on the sd card but it says no or wrong image.
I think this phone is toast

Is the phone S-off or S-on? If it's S-on, you will have to relock the bootloader to run the RUU.

Windows 8. DOn;t have HTC Syn installed. Just the ADB drivers so the computer will see the phone as the phone will not boot into anything but bootloader/recovery.
Try a Windows 7 machine. Windows 8 & 8.1 don't play nice.

Trying it on my Windows 7 laptop, got the same problem. I installed latest htc sync, rebooted. Ran the RUU installer, go through all the menus and to the point where it is going to install. It says "Checking", then goes to "Rebooting Bootloader", this is where the phone shuts off. I can get the phone back into bootloader has it is waiting for bootloader before it errors. But then it eventually errors out with error 171 usb connection error. This is the stock usb cable btw

Did you open HTC sync and connect your phone? This sometimes installs additional drivers.

I root the rom files from the RUU (rom_1 and rom_2) and renamed them PJ75IMG.zip and placed them on the SD card (one at a time). I tried the larger sized one which shows it will update the bootloader, splash1, sbl2, sbl3, trust_zone, rpm, adsp, pgfs_spcustom, wcnss, tp, sbl1, recovery, radio_v2, radio_cust.
As soon as I hit volume up it goes to bootloader - updating...then just stays there endlessly. I can remove the sd card and it does nothing. Phone is frozen there. I have to hold power and then get back to bootloader and nothing has changed.
Both files I got from the RUU doe that.

Yea, it opened automatically actually, and looked through all my media. The drive installs fine and show as My HTC Device.

Unfortunately, I'm out of ideas at the moment.
One last thing to try. Hit the top link in my sig and go to the RUU downloads and try the 3.17 RUU on Windows 7. You can also try the alternative PJ75IMG method, as well. If you use the PJ75IMG method make sure the file is named PJ75IMG.zip with no extra .zip extension on the end (Windows automatically hides extensions, so check it and make sure), and make sure the file is on the root of your external SD card and not in any folders. If this doesn't work, and you feel comfortable doing it, send me the phone and I'll take a look at it.
