seems to flash, wipe, function, and change any setting in it just fine. No issues yet. Thanks @Snuzzo and @Phil3759 for the hard work

The zip that was posted is currently for S-Off, s-on users extract out recovery.img from root and fastboot flash/boot it.

Thanks Snuzzo and Phil3759. This is a great recovery on my nexus 10. I'm looking forward to putting this on my phone.

So glad this finally made it to vigor! Awesome work to all involved

Can I assume the wipe option "wipe to install a new rom" preserves both internal and external SD cards. Main thread was kinda generic on this.. Thx

To add using that option would be same as doing a factory reset+wiping /system. Also s-on users beware if attempting dirty flashes the wipe boot option is right above wipe system, WATCH YOUR DIRTY FLASHING!

Like this a lot, thanks. Two issues, one small. Battery life displays 66% at all times.
Also, my ROM had warned me that I had 1% battery life left, so I manually shut down. I plugged in the phone and was greeted by an orange blinking LED. after 1-2 minutes the led went solid. This is the same behavior I had before flashing the recovery. This time when I tried to turn on the phone the led went off and nothing happened. Had to pull the battery to get back to the blinking led, but ended up in the same cycle. After 20 min of being plugged in I couldn't get the phone to start. Luckily I have a battery charger.

Had this loaded up and my Rezound battery died, like completely dead and then it sat for a several days dead... Had it on the charger now for couple hours, won't charge the battery at all. Kind of reminds me of the old CWM charging issues.
Just going to let it sit on the charger overnight and see what happens, then will swap batteries and flash back to TWRP and see if that helps.

Get it into fastboot mode with battery out on charger then put battery in and let it sit for a few moments.

Sorry for the long post.
I've got a similar issue. I was running the evervolve rom from a few months ago and had wiped data from this recovery. I then wiped the external sd card. I'm packing this away since I have the m8. As that was going my kid had a minor emergency and I ended up leaving it for several days. It was on usb but my computer went to sleep and the battery died.
Now I can't boot into recovery and when I plug it to walk or usb I'll get a few short flashes and one long one then nothing. With the battery out on usb I get absolutely nothing. With the battery in I usually get an unknown driver issue in device manager. Same computer I've used for a year with adb. Since this no combination odd battery/charging well be recognized by adb. I assume my problems are related to the dead battery but it's my only one and I don't have an external charger.
Any ideas?

Plug it in to a regular adapter, not a PC, for at least 8 hours without touching it, it should start charging... If it doesn't you may have a bad battery.

Thanks for the reply, I could definitely believe the battery has gone bad. It's been plugged into an OEM wall charger for a day or more 3 times. The battery is almost 2 years old and with the battery life of the Rezound it has gone through quite a few cycles. Is there anything else I can try to ensure that the phone is still functioning before I go buy a new battery? I'm hoping to keep this around only as a BT streaming device/backup phone so it'll be plugged in anytime it's being used.

Did I just brick my phone?

okay! so I have a S-on amaze 4g. Unlocked bootloader and have clock work recovery, Im also on tmobile. I was running Bulletproof's rom v2.5
so yesterday I was looking at some roms and I came accross mike 1986's android revolution ROM that was based on tmobile's sense 3.6 and android 4.0. I decided to ditch my current ROM and go for mike's ROM instead
Well last night I followed his instructions. Put the PH85IMG, Rom and Super wipe to my phone's SD card. I booted into bootloader and it loaded the PH85IMG but it didnt seem to have done anything so it loaded back to bootloader. I selected "Recovery" and booted into recovery. I deleted my files and cache using clockwork recovery. Then applied the Superwipe zip then installed the ROM. It said it installed the rom and then I proceeded to reboot my amaze 4g. Ok I rebooted my phone and it got stuck on the HTC screen for some quit time WITHOUT THE QUIETLY BRILLIANT. So i decided to redo this all over again. and again the same problem happened. stuck on the HTC logo. so I took out my batterys and went to bed since i wanted to get some shut eye
now this is where my problem comes from. When ever I turn on my phone it wont turn on! i wanted to boot into bootlader but when ever i press on the power button with the volume rocker down it wont start up. So i plug in my USB cable and the LED that indicates charging comes on. and my computer detects the phone... i click on the search capacitive button and the phone disconnects from my computer and it boots into the HTC screen and the screen turns blank
if anyone can help me please help.
come on 43 views and no help

any more help it would be greatly appreciated
I tried the same rom yesterday and it failed for me also. I've seen quite a few fails on it. Mine didn't die like yours, mine just froze on the splash screen. I had to pull the battery and hboot and re install my recovery so I could restore my backup. Does anything happen if you pull the battery and try to get into bootloader?

You might have to get an external charger to charge your battery, or if you know anyone to swap batteries with to charge yours and try theirs to see if it's just a dead battery. Sounds like it might be.
Download the latest RUU for your phone. You said the computer detects the device see if the RUU will see it as well. Hoping that it does just run it and it will flash your phone back to stock stock and you may have to unlock and install clockwork again but if it works you'll have a working phone again good luck chief

I believe the Rom u were trying to flash is for s-off only....I might be wrong though...

If i recall, you were supposed to lock the bootloader before you placed the PH85.img, because it wouldn't recognize the file without it on an S-On device. Also, where you using Xboarder's Clockwork recovery touch? or an older version?
Try this and tell me what happens. Change your phone by your computer USB and turn it on by search button and "HOLD THE DOWN VOL BUTTON AT THE SAME TIME" try it a couple of times.

I think it's a problem with the version of cwm installed, it won't charge the battery right if it dies all the way pull the battery then charge it for about 20 mins then battery pull again and charge for a minute or two and try and turn it on

[GUIDE] Debrick your Rezound (Clockworkmod charging issue)

So after my battery ran out today I realized that Clockworkmod does not allow charging while the phone is off... This left me in a tricky situation where I could not charge my phone at all. I had seen others mention using another battery but I did not have one on hand. Here's how I replaced Clockworkmod with Amon-Ra to fix it (this also works for all recovery images that I know):
REQUIREMENTS:
-Computer with ADB
-Rezound with Clockworkmod or other faulty recovery
-Amon-Ra's recovery image (attached)
1) Unplug USB and remove battery
2) Put battery in
3) Plug USB into computer (with ADB installed)
4) Enter "adb devices" until you see your Rezound show up as recovery. During this time, the orange LED may either blink shortly first or be solid for a few seconds and then turn off. Once it turns off, it should be accessible over ADB.
5) Grab your amonra recovery img and use adb to copy to phone.
Example: adb push amon-ra-3.15.img /tmp/amon-ra-3.15.img
6) Flash the image to recovery.
Example: adb shell flash_image recovery /tmp/amon-ra-3.15.img
7) Reboot your phone (adb reboot) and repeat steps 1-3 (but this time using wall outlet)
8) Sit back and let Amon-Ra save your Rezound. Once your orange LED has been solid for over a minute, you should be good

Rom manager. Also he offers touch for pay (which is what I mistakenly purchased thinking it could mount the internal sd. Either way though I agree, it is not safe for the average root user even to have a recovery that doesn't allow charging even through a wall outlet. It should only list Amon-Ra's under alternate recovery.

Thanks, I know the average user is using Amon-Ra or TWRP but figured I'd put this here so we have a clear guide for getting out of this situation where some users may end up returning their phone to HTC (possibly getting charged after the fact)

Its odd, those same people who can't search to find out how to fix the problem, can find CWM

I'm fairly new to the Rezound. Came from the Nexus side because I wanted a more multimedia-friendly device (better external speaker/camera/same res). I bought mine pre-rooted and flashed to Clean, which was pretty nice - until I ran into this issue. I bought another battery from Verizon and hooked the other one up to an external charger. I figure it won't hurt to have two batteries anyway.
I know a ton of people have bad things to say about CWM but is this really the only issue? It flashes just fine, right? I ran a nandroid on what I have now and tried to install the latest leak, but I got a ton of reboots. Eventually reverted back to Clean. Either way, thanks for the writeup. Would have saved me a ton of stress over the weekend, hahaha.
Nice work djh816. this was the thing i have always feared lol. matter of fact, this is a HUGE weight lifted out of my mind. Thanks so much for this. keep up the good work
nice guide but i dont think anyone uses cwm anymore. still, thanks
I do. Haven't had issues. I just, if you can believe it, charge my battery before I do anything.

The OP of this thread are the instructions... Just do Steps 2-6.
Edit: or use hasoon2000's first AIO toolkit, which has AmonRa as a flash option (also another lingering source of CWM):

Haha I was fine as well with Clockworkmod Touch and had no clue it even had that problem until my battery finally drained all the way. Then I was SOL. But yea as he said, following those instructions simply replaces the recovery image. All your data will still be in tact (aside from your clockworkmod backups if you have them but Amon-Ra can read those too I think)
Yeah, I figured those instructions would work. You should advertise this as a how to swap between them also. There are others using CWM, and just not talking about it.
Thanks.

I have an easier solution, while phone has been dead for 5-10 minutes, hold power button and as soon as screen flashes plug in the device. Works every time. I also have 3 batteries, 1 original, 2nd from my replacement from warranty, 3rd is extended. I don't ever even change batteries though.
Funny that people are still having/talking about this issue.
I remember when the issue first popped up on the Rezound and people were clueless. All kinds of theories as to the cause and solution.
I knew of the cause from a few phones back... CWM has a history of issues with charging while powered off. I learned of it from an initial release of CWM for a different phone would that when trying to charge with it powered off, would turn on the screen.
Easiest way is to run the command
adb reboot download
boom phone restarts...
I have had this modded version of CWM touch by someone else (I will let him say who he is just in case he does not want to take credit).
It is a modded version of CWM 5.8.1.4-Touch that solves the charging when off problem.
I can not support it but can assure you it works since I have been using it since the beginning of April. I do switch between this and AmonRa for testing my ROM but all my backups are with this.
Still need to copy the .hidenandroidprogress file from internal to external clockworkmod folder to solve the freeze problem when backing up or restoring.
Just install it just like any other recovery.
NOTE: If anyone want to take this and start another thread with it that is fine by me. I just don't have time which is why I never posted it before.
I ended up doing it through fastboot, as I'm a bit more familiar with that, but thanks for the notes and link. I'm now on Amon Ra.
Anything I need to know as a CWM user since, oh, the G1?
And do I need to worry about moving that file so backups work, like you did in CWM?
Thanks again.
Thanks man, this this is totally pimp, sent you a donation - get yourself some good beer!

[Q] Cannot charge with CWM and drained battery

HTC Rezound with CWM/ICS and Scotty's Stock Rooted RUU 3.14.605.5
Phone battery drained and it would not come back. I plugged it in to the wall outlet and nothing. I plugged it into my PC and I heard the familiar "buh dunk" saying the device was recognized by Windows.
I did some searching and found there is a charging issue with ClockWorkMod (CWM) and the phone battery being drained and that I should use AmonRA in the future. Well I couldn't access the phone but I thought "the PC recognizes it, why can't Hasoon's All In One Toolkit see it as well"? So I ran the toolkit and all I did was click on "AmonRa 3.15 (GB/ICS)" and then clicked on the "Flash Recovery" button and VOILA!!, The phone came back to life!!!
I still haven't checked to see what Recovery I have (phone is still charging), but hot damn my phone isn't DEAD!! The phone booted normally and is charging.
Once I get this fully charged, how can I tell if I am on AmonRa or CWM? I guess with the charging issues I want to be on AmonRa. I have my phone setup perfectly for me and I don't want to reload the damn thing, so any help would be appreciative.
Regards and I hope this helps someone in the future!!

There is a charger sold on amazon that can take the resound battery directly that only costs $2. I bought that in a band a few months back. I'll try to find a link later.
I've come to love team win's touch recovery on my rezound. Just an amon ra alternative that doesn't seem to be that popular atm.

[Q] My EVO LTE won't turn on, won't charge. Unresponsive

I didn't do anything out of the ordinary...?
I wiped everything, reflashed a ROM, nothing new.
The only thing I did out of the ordinary was tried to wipe internal storage because it is getting too messy, and anything I care about is on the external storage. It fails when trying to wipe it, so I went to unmount internal storage. I rebooted to take out my sad card just to be safe. When I went to turn it back on, nothing.
Not even an orange light to show it is charging.
Any ideas?
Never had something this close to bricking happen.
I don't think I did anything damaging...?
I guess my question is, does bricking include an unresponsive battery?
Any ideas as to why the battery isnt even charging?
Can you get into recovery?

[Q] Need Help! Must get working for tomorrow

Ok I did my first root and install for my rezound. I messed with rooting more back when I had my TB and Eris but nothing more than doing some walk-throughs getting some new roms and such. I got Nils business sense 3.6 working great and what a great ROM! However I ran into a (in my head) major problem. With the knowledge of some people here I'm sure 30 minutes with my phone would get it going, but alas I am a noob, but good at following instructions. I'm good with all things tech until we start talking cmd and coding . Build a comp, fix a computer, OCing that kind of thing.
Anyhow, this morning I woke up to a dead phone forgot to charge, no biggy, I put in a new battery and booted...then got stuck at HTC white screen. So I boot into bootloader and all i get is the IMG updating thing and only an option to reboot. Now I'm in a loop. So I take the PHIMG out of root folder and try to boot into recovery and it goes to the white HTC screen with the small loading bar to a black screen that never changes. Cant get into recovery. Next step, using the Hasoon all in one toolkit (though I know I could use cmd myself, this makes my life easier as it accomplishes the same goal) I try to reflash recovery as recommended by someone here. No change. Alas I know my battery is probably getting low and it does NOT charge while turned off!! Lame...So any help would be greatly appreciated!

You could download and install the latest global RUU. Rename it to PH98IMG.zip and place it on root of SD. Make sure if your S-On to re lock your bootloader. Also stay away from CWM recovery, Amon Ra or TWRP is your best recoveries of choice.

It happens lol. Just stay away from CWM recovery in the future. It doesn't allow you to charge your device when powered off.
Also, I think there is a thread someone made on how to charge your battery externally. Might have to dig it up in the general section.

Just dug that up, you can use CWM Touch as well. Either or should set you straight.

I actually used the Amon recovery I did hear issues with CWM as I was doing research. So am I to assume amon has similar issues to CMW then?

Just placed an order. Thanks, I was hoping to find one in a store around here to get up and running this week, but I guess I'll be out of commission for a couple days.

Amon recovery does not have the battery charging issue. I don't know if you ordered the battery already. But have you tried charging all the batteries?
