i am currently running an ICS rom and need to return mine for another device since it is defected.
Can i just htcdev LOCK then flash the ruu renamed as PH98IMG.zip to get back to stock?
You can do that cause I think ruu is different than just flashing stock. I had an og evo and I flashed the stock and I still had s-off so best advice make sure there is an s-on utility for ur device then use the ruu to return to stock

That will work fine. You can also relock then run the RUU on a windows PC, but pretty much the same thing will be accomplished.
i flashed back to gb then did waht i stated in the op and all it did was lock me in the bootloader and now my phone is stuck no matter what it do.

I'm in the same place as you. I'm on ics and need return it since its defrctive. Please let me know how you get it to work. Someone toke me I had to flash gb kernel and Rom then relock and flash ruu

I'm no expert but I think (if you made a Nandroid) you can extract the boot.img from the Nandroid then flash it and restore your stock Backup. I would also wipe / factory reset in recovery.
If you don't have a Nandroid backup you can download the RUU or a boot.img from a Rom like Scott's GB ROM and use one of those after you extract the boot.img.
I just did this today, I first flashed back to a gingerbread rom, then i unzipped the ruu and took the boot_signed.img from it, renamed it to boot than flashed it from fastboot. Then I put the ruu zip on my memory card (renamed it to ph98img) and fastboot OEM locked the device. I then rebooted the bootloader and applied the update.

which GB rom? and where can you get the ruu zip? i thought RUU was a program where you can format it.
ahh lol there needs to be a tutorial.
thanks ill do some more research though!

I got it from scottsroms.com, I just downloaded the zip file in the ruu section, as for reverting back to a gingerbread Rom, I'm sure anyone of them would work (scotts clean rom has always done me well). I only say that because once you flash the boot image, your ics rom won't boot, so you can't place the ruu on the memory card, unless you have another way to mount your sd card to the computer (i.e. adapter, or another phone)

I believe all you have to do is pick the rom you want, install it and your good. The majority of them automatically takes you to hboot to flash the kernal, but not all of them, so make sure you read the instructions before you flash.

Your method worked great! I was running Scotts Senseless ICS, used your method and now back on Scotts CleanRom 1.5.5! Thanks man!
Wait I thought even if you relocked the bootloader it said "relocked" or something at the top so Verizon could tell no matter what. That's the only reason i haven't unlocked yet because i just got a new device and want to make sure there are no bugs with it.

I wondered this as well. Most csr's don't seem to be as knowledgeable as the people here on xda. They also don't seem to have a lot of knowledge on particular devices besides the obvious specs. I really don't think anyone is going to boot into fastboot to see it's been relocked, or even know what that means.
I'm gonna gamble with it, I'm tired of the noise coming from the headphone Jack whenever I play music.

I just spoke with a Verizon tech on the phone last night, he told me that simply unlocking the phone would NOT void the warranty considering HTC is allowing it via their website. However he did say that any rooting/roms would void it immediately (if they can detect it of course).
So basically just put it back to stock and you are good?

You have to use a card reader in a computer. If these are not available to you, you might try the local library.
You should be able to go into recovery. Just reflash like Mike said and you should be good to go.
Like others have said just go into recovery and re flash your rom. There is Zero need to re lock and run an ruu, just a waste of time

So this morning I decided to update my firmware from the PJ75IMG.zip. I booted back to and while I was in the bootload a factor reset was done by accident. Now my operating system is now erased. S-off'ed with lazy panda. Also, i have no backup because my Vista crashed a week ago. Sprint will replace my phone, but is there any possibility of unbricking now?

Sorry to hear that. I believe you're gonna need a pc to try to do anything towards fixing it. Try an RUU. You can always get a replacement before they start giving out refurbs.

If you can access recovery you can flash a rom. Your other option would be to run the ruu. You will never get your data back though.

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?

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.

Are you unlocked, S-on or S-off?
Is the device rooted?
Hard to help with the information at hand.
If you can boot into android, go to play store, download GOO.Manager and "install open recovery script." That should get you a working TWRP recovery.

Check in bootloader, See if you're still Unlocked S-off.
If so you can re-install a recovery.

is my bootloader in fact re-locked ( im guessing the reason i keep getting remote not allowed)

Or, over in the Rumrunnner thread.
Might be a simple command in adb to re-unlock, not sure.
We are out of my realm of knowledge at this point. Sorry I can''t be of more help. Good luck, I hope you get it figured out.
that gives me an error as if i dont have debugging enabled

Thanks for chiming in thayl0,
like i said, the ONLY thing i can successfully flash is firmware which is what i dont understand . if i can flash that , wth not recovery? btw im trying to flash recovery clockworkmod 6.0.4.5 . could i be trying to flash a recovery not compatible with firmware?
If you are re-locked you will not be able to do anything.
That's where you gotta start. I think thayl0 may be right. Try re-running Rumrunner.
Once you are unlocked, then you will able to install a recovery+++
finally got it fixed! i had to FIND the correct RUU for the firmware im assuming... also by flashing the stock hboot you guys pointed me to. thanks and if anyone else comes across this problem i suggest taking the time to make sure you have compatible RUU and/or other files they r trying to flash. thanks again guys

Most people tell to flash 1.15 but what they don't know is u can't downgrade your phone. So you half to flash 2.07 or 3.06.
If u need more help. Let me know.
