Firmware with boot.img, kernel, and Radio
This is from the latest OTA for KitKat 4.4.2 SPRINT ONLY!! This is Sprint hboot 2.49.0000 & 3.02.651.5
Flash the firmware first and then the rom. If you are running a custom rom you will need to reflash the rom or flash the kernel for said rom after the firmware.
How to flash the Full Firmware w/radio
Download the firmware for your SPRINT One Max
*_ * Place the zip in your fastboot/adb directory on your computer.
*_* Put the device in fastboot mode
*_* (Volume down and power until menu appears, select fastboot using power button)
*_* Connect the device to the computer
*_* Enter the following commands from terminal/command prompt in the fastboot directory, one at a time:
*_* fastboot oem rebootRUU (this puts the device in RUU mode)
*_* fastboot flash zip "name of zip"
*_* It MAY say that the update did not finish, to flush again, so repeat the above step if it did not finish:
*_* fastboot flash zip "name of zip"
*_* fastboot reboot-bootloader (this reboots the device to bootloader)

I've been trying to flash through fast boot by renaming file 0P3PIMG.img with no luck. It seems Verizon users are able to do so. What is with the RUU mode with the Sprint variant?

It's a zip file, why rename it? Put it in your fastboot directory on your PC to flash it.
Just do as it says in the OP and you should not have any problems.
.img files are to be flashed from the sd card in fastboot(on devices which have an sd slot like this one), but this is a zip with a .img file inside, it's not a .img file.
Just do as it says in the OP and it should work fine.

Yeah I'm having pc problems at the moment, my phone is my only computing device. That and my actual sd card crashed a while back, so I've been using the folder labeled sdcard. Might be that I need to put those files on an sdcard. Also I think I miss typed the file extension in my original post I tried the .zip not .img.

You don't put anything here on your phone! Place this stuff on your computer and open a terminal/cmd prompt. Make sure the files are in the same folder where you open the cmd/terminal & copy/paste the name after your command so you can't misspell anything.

ATTENTION: If you have not flashed this firmware yet, please PM me first? I would like to post the original radios that came with our phones but I did not pull my radio before flashing this. We just need a recovery that mounts to the pc & your stock stock firmware.

I flashed these radios successfully when you first posted them (thank you). I have not noticed any benifits as far as signal or BW.. Do you know if theese baseband/radios are doing anything. I"m on the sense 6 ROM.

I honestly think the new radios are giving me less reception. I had a user grab the original radios but I just have not had time to test them out so they can be posted here. I'll try to get this done by the weekend for everyone.
It could be all in my head or maintenance on sprints towers , but I was thinking the same thing.. I don't get reception where I once did.

I'm having the same issues. I actually have the older radios which I need to test. If they are working then I will post them up for users to fall back on.
EDIT: I have added flashable radios in post #2 of the OP. These are packaged to be flashed from within recovery so no need for fastboot flashing! I have tested the older baseband myself and seem to be getting better service with it. This will vary depending on your location! Please thank mnsportsguy1978 for pulling the radio for All of US to enjoy!
3.02.651.5 Update
OP has been updates in posts 1 & 2 with the very latest Sense 6 OTA Firmware. Radio is flashable in post #2.
EDIT: To those with questions, I have flashed the latest firmware & my radio seems to be working very well. It is a little spotty but that is most likely because sprint has been working on adding better coverage to my area. I usually ran the original radios for best call quality on my end but I'll be doing more testing on this new one. So far so good.

It's in the zip package. Everything should be in the complete firmware zip. I made two zips, one has the kernel & the other does not have it. Recovery can be deleted from the package before flashing it. In fact I probably should make the zips without the recovery also for those that are running twrp or cwm recovery.

This OTA broke wifi.
I am unlocked, was rooted, but no longer.
all stock.
and now there is an "error" under the wifi toggle. it can't be turned on.
Anyone seen this?
If wifi was really broke from this update I'm sure there would be a real s$&tstorm brewing all over the intertubes. I would try the update again if you wanna stay stock otherwise try reroot and custom rom to see if wifi is back. Personally I only ran the updated version long enough to get the radio and quickly get back to ics..
You need to flash the kernel modules for the kernel you are using
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using xda premium
Hey! I have that too... gonna try reflashing the kernel. Was on dsb before update but thought I'd stay stock to check battery life with it. Didn't reflash after restoring my nand.
EDIT: Reflashed stock kernel, wifi error. Flashed dsb, error on flashing the update, "mainver is older" which is exactly what I didn't want to have happen with the OTA.

Hey feralicious , how are you trying to flash the kernel ? It's my understanding if you flash in fastboot the mainver of the kernel shouldn't matter. It only has issues if you try to PH98img.zip flash it that the android.text.file needs to be changed in the zip to successfully flash.

The dsb is flashed in recovery, then goes to hboot to flash the update which is a PH98img.zip file.
I found where scrosler posted a kernel to flash that is for the OTA version and flashed that and I see that my kernel info changed a bit but still get an error for wifi.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=21907238&postcount=18
So now I just tried 3 times to restore the nand I made immediately after I downloaded the OTA and I don't know what is going on but it says restored and then when I reboot it's not that stock version, it's already back to Ineffabilis. I realize all things point to operator error but I've been making nands all along and have gone back to them with no problem and this doesn't make any sense! Ugh. All this rooting stuff was going so smoothly until now. I made that specifically so I could go back to stock + OTA that I had on my phone.
I don't know if I can start all over now since I'm already updated with the mainver. Guess I can try to use con247's ROM + OTA but there are no instructions for that.
I guess I need to go to sleep. Maybe do a factory reset tomorrow and try starting from scratch.

Take the boot.img out of the Ph98 file and flash it manually in fastboot .
wipe data/factory in recovery then in amon ra go to developer menu boot to bootloader.. take the boot.img you removed and either place it in the same folder as fastboot or if you have set the path for adb so you can run it from anywhere . Open up a CMD , change directory to the folder with fastboot and type fastboot flash boot boot.img
This will flash the wifi module for you without encountering the mainver issue.
Well it seems that flashing scrosler's newer mainver boot.img should have fixed it. Right now I'm restoring a nand. I made them correctly but wasn't thinking straight about what they were, so I think I was restoring the last Ineffabilis from before grabbing the OTA. I'm now restoring the last one I made that should be stock OTA. Then I'll check wifi on that.
Was going to edit out the whole part about my nands from my previous post since I realized I wasn't remembering correctly but now you've gone and quoted it and spoiled my plan. Aha! I see the HTC boot animations so now I've got it back to stock OTA. Drum roll...
and wifi is working!
So the wifi error has to do with restoring a nand of the custom ROM. Tomorrow I'll try flashing the ROM fresh instead and see if wifi remains, unless someone knows that this will not make a difference.
Thanks.

I had this issue and it's from restoring a nand of a stock updated rom after I was in a mainver loop. What I did was go back to a stock gb nand I made and wifi was fine. I took the OTA again and rerooted. I'm good now. Do you have a stock gb nand handy??

Mine's all good now as far as WiFi as mentioned above. Just have to find out if I can use Innefabilis with the OTA. Thanks.
I did find out that I was not actually rooted after the OTA as I thought I was so that could be what caused it. Root explorer worked and superuser was in my apps so I assumed... But when I went to use Tibu just now it said I didn't have root, so that could be what went wrong for me. Now that I'm sure of root I'm going to try to restore my Innef. Nand and see if it still breaks WiFi.
Hey OP! Have you got your WiFi working?
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using Tapatalk
CONFIRMED: Flashing/restoring Ineffabilis breaks wifi.
Wifi is fine with just the OTA but I get the error after restoring a nand with Ineffabilis or flashing it from scratch again.
Did you flash ineff's kernel as well? Everything is workin great here, wifi included.

Argh. The one in the first post of the Ineff thread, stock rooted? Yes. Someone posted in the Ineff thread that they have wifi as well.
I have a feeling it's because I didn't lock before updating?... but I read others saying it wasn't necessary. Starting over. Again.
Well I did everything over again using con247's method. This time I locked and unlocked. So now I'm ready to put Ineffabilis back on.
Hag77... did you restore a nand or reflash it from scratch? And was the kernel you flashed the stock rooted one in the first post of that thread? And did you flash before as well as after getting Ineff back or just after? What is the version/date of your kernel now? Thanks.
I have tried twice now to dl the ota ROM, wifi doesnt work on it for me. I looked in the kernel file, then ph98img and tried to extract, said path was not valid.... What should I do?

Download OTA rom, and remove the ph98file from it. Place the OTA rom file on the root of the SD card with the Ph98img file removed. Now , open the Ph98 file on desktop and just pull out the file boot.img ( looks like a silver disc with a white background) Place that file into your fastboot folder that you used to unlock your device with.
Reboot phone to recovery, wipe data/factory reset. Once wiped, install the OTA rom zip .. after that is done installing, go to the main menu of recovery again and select developer menu. In developer menu choose reboot to bootloader. Once in hboot, plug phone into the computer and select fastboot.
It should say fastbootusb highlighted if properly connected and in fastboot.
P.S. you don't extract it, just drag it out of the ph98 and drop it into your fastboot folder
Now, got to the folder with fastboot and the boot.img image and open up a command prompt ...Make sure the command prompt is showing the folder your in as the path .. then just type fastboot flash boot boot.img.. this will send the boot.img kernel image to your phone.
Once, that is done reboot and you should now have the OTA installed with the proper kernel.

I went straight back to my nand backup of ineff- then flashed kernel with fastboot.. I never ever ever flash kernels w/ ph file- not that it can't be done successfully I've just seen too many people run into problems doing it. Flashing kernels w/ fastboot is the only way I trust and it's supereasy (although requires pc).. So to sum up- my path was
relock- ruu to scott's posted ruu
skip all setup on ruu and go straight to the update
reboot into updated phone once
pull battery- hboot- install amonra
restore nand
flash kernel
success

Are you double clicking on it. Might have to download a program called 7zip. It is a free program that will let you unzip folders. I double click on the folder and I am able to open it up, but I do have 7zip installed so maybe thats why.
The thing is that I am pure stock, just rooted. I went to recovery and recovered to my original and only back up, everything works now, but I am afraid that the update will self push and break it again.

Well easiest way to prevent that would be to flash a custom recovery , then the update will fail. Guess , I didn't realize you could back up with the stock recovery never tried it .
Unless your saying you don't want to Unlock at all, then I am not sure because the update will get pushed to a stock rom with stock recovery. Don't think there is anything you can do except alter some files I suppose , but just as easy to accept the update
CWM Version 5.8.1.4, Stock rom, rooted.
Just wanted to create a back up before I flash any custom roms, I haven't been able to create a system back up. I've tried backing up to external SD card, and internal SD card but neither works.
Internal SD card will go all the way through the steps: Boot image, recovery image, system, data, and then it just hangs on the SU command at the very end of the data back up.
External SD card hangs on system back up with no commands.
Is there any fix around this? Would AmonRA be a better recovery manager to use? I used CWM because it's what I used on my Droid 2.
Also, once I create a recovery image, is there a way to manage and delete images through CWM? I know RomManager had a way, but there were issues with ROM manager on HTC phones so I stayed away from it.
edit: sorry I tried to link to other forum posts but I can't post links. there was a post I wanted to link to saying AmonRA is better, but it didn't go into detail as to why. Can I uninstall CWM and reinstall AmonRA without any problems?

Yes. Do it! That is, switch to AmonRA. One of the big problems with CWM is that it won't charge a dead battery if you happen to run it all the way down to zip.

In bootloader, you use fastboot commands. So it would be
Code:
fastboot devices
Then, assuming it sees your device
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
recovery.img is the recovery file, of course.

I'm a complete noob, and I probably should have done more research before doing this - Sorry for annoying post if this has occurred already, I couldn't find a post with a solution.
What I did:
Installed adb tools, unlocked bootloader, then rooted it. Then I tried installing cm10.1 following this guy's method(I don't have s-off) :
wwjoshdew - How To Install CyanogenMod 10.1 Android 4.2.1 Jelly Bean on the HTC Evo 4g LTE (Sorry, since I'm a noob, i can't post external links)
Everything seemed as if it was going according to plan but when I got to lock screen on first boot, I couldn't touch anything on the screen. Only volume control and power buttons on the outside functioned.
Also, I'm on twrp v2.4.1.0 and I flashed the rom using a app called flash gui on the phone. I made a backup as well, but after restore to backup, the phone just keeps restarting incessantly.
Can anyone help me, explaining in depth what I can do? I'm a complete noob, and I'm sorry if this post is annoying! I've seen that noob video.
Flash gui is only for flashing the kernel, the rom still needs to be flashed separately. If you're running the latest firmware update then you can't use roms that require older binaries (basically all aosp). Either wait for the source to drop, flash an updated sense rom, or go to the mean bean thread and look for the instructions for downgrading the touch panel update.

Do you know how I can just revert back to regular android. I mean I can not do anything except boot into bootloader and recovery, I can't reset or restore. cheers and thanks

You can download the lastest meanbean v3.06 rom, or any rom that is 3.16 software based. Usually it says it right by the name of the rom on the header. Place the rom zip on your sd card. I usually put all my files in the downloads folder. Then boot into recovery and do a factory reset, then wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache, and wipe system. Then go to install and flash the meanbean rom you have in your downloads folder. Then reboot. You should be good to go. Since your S-on try staying with roms that contain the s-on installer. Most 3.16 based roms have the S-ON installer but in the event that one does not you will have to flashboot the boot.img of the rom prior to flashing the rom through recovery.

You can download the lastest meanbean v3.06 rom, or any rom that is 3.16 software based. Usually it says it right by the name of the rom on the header. Place the rom zip on your sd card. I usually put all my files in the downloads folder. Then boot into recovery and do a factory reset, then wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache, and wipe system. Then go to install and flash the meanbean rom you have in your downloads folder. Then reboot. You should be good to go. Since your S-on try staying with roms that contain the s-on installer. Most 3.16 based roms have the S-ON installer but in the event that one does not you will have to flashboot the boot.img of the rom prior to flashing the rom through recovery. Note: You can only run roms that are based on the latest 3.16 software.

How can I put the rom on the sdcard if I can't excess anything on the phone except for the bootloader...? I can't even access the recovery, because it has become relocked. pretty much all i can access is the bootloader and fastboot, nothing eles, I can't even restore to normal htc sense firmware.
Cheers and thanks

Thanks mate, I'll give that a try. I didn't think about taking the sd out jaja Do what exactly should i do once i put the rom on the sd?
Check out this thread. I believe you can flash the rom through fastboot. I have not done this though. So proceed with caution. Remember it has to be 3.16 based.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=Flashing_Guide_-_Android
ROM Flashing
Obtain a ROM of your choice, and note the location on your computer.
reboot your device into fastboot mode via one of the following options.
adb reboot bootloader (requires USB debugging to be turned on).
power off the device then back on with 'vol up' + power button.
Wipe your device.
fastboot -w
Update your ROM.
fastboot update </path/to/your/RomFile.zip>
Your phone will update and automatically reboot into the new ROM.

Follow the steps that Milo put above and hopefully it works. Whenever I screwed mine up and wouldn't recover, I would run the 3.15ruu to put it back to stock.. However if you are on 3.16 I don't believe there is an ruu for it yet, I know captain throwback had something in works though, search for him and check his threads as a last ditch effort.. Best of luck.
Mito that is...

I'm actually on meanbean latest version.
I couldn't do anything else except this
What I did:
- Put the micro sd card in pc
- copied meanbean rom to sd
- put sd card back in phone
- put phone into fastboot
-on pc, I extracted the boot.img from meanbean rom and placed it into android-sdk folder,
- simultaneously pressed shift and right clicked in folder to open command prompt
- in command prompt, type fast boot devices
- then fastboot flash boot boot.img
- on phone, put phone into recovery(twrp) then I installed the rom.
then the phone booted as normal. I'm working to see if I can install the cm10.1 on meanbean, I'm gonna test it to see what happens. I hoped I was able to help.
SvetKrasivaya said:

That's cool, so you flashed the boot.img first after you extracted it and then you went right into Twr precovery and just flashed the rom zip file. And I agree, I don't know if the cm10.1 is for 3.16 or not, and if you flash a kernel and is not right, you're toast, that's why I'm hesitant to flash the cm10.1 zip....

[FIRMWARE][S-OFF] Jewel Firmware Collection - Latest: 3.16.651.3 OTA
Read the first post carefully. You already did all the hard stuff. Just downgrade the touch panel firmware to the previous version.
I did the root update (flashed in TWRP) to:
HTC6435LVW_2.04.605.2-1.15.605.2
BUT...now Verizon is telling me I need to update OTA to:
HTC6435LVW_2.04.605.2-1.15.605.4
...Is there a .4 version rooted somewhere?
Also, the .2 version is causing my screen to flicker every 20 seconds or so for some reason.
How about this: Are there just instructions somewhere telling me how to lock the phone so I can do the stupid OTA update...and then re-root? I've seen like partial instructions but not sure the best method.
Thanks.
Thanks.

as he said this should go in Q&A Sections, but to answer your question. The flickering is becuase you did not flash the kernel to go a long with 2.04.
Also what do you mean by you flashed 2.04 in twrp? can you give me a link to what you flashed?
Woops sorry. Too bad I can't move it or I would.

What he is saying is that the file you downloaded is called a "rom" and that you are supposed to extract the boot.img from the .zip, and flash it using the procedure he told you
Does this update the radio too? I heard that was updated.
Also, what about the .4 version....This is .2. Do I need .4?

Seems to have worked! Thanks.
Can you tell me please why?
What I ended up doing:
1.) Booting to TWRP and flashing the .zip file. Then I noticed the flickering, but everything seemed to work fine.
2.) Then I posted to the forum here, and you gave me those instructions.
3.) Then I tried them and updated just the boot.img file as you said. ...And it seems to be working.

It worksbecause you flashed the update in recovery and flashedthe corresponding kernel and modules.
So are you saying that if you flash the update, that it won't "do the kernel part"? And the only way to do the kernel upgrade is to use the method described herein?
Did I do the process correctly then? Meaning, in the future, is this how it's done?
Thanks.

What you first flashed was the rom someone created out of the update. Flashing it does not flash the kernel (boot.img) and probably not the modules either. Some developers have been incorporating the kernel and modules into the rom, but in your case it didn't work. You should also flash the new radio, that was not flashed when you flashed the rom.
If you accept the OTA via the normal process it will do everything itself.
I can't accept the OTA because it will just boot into TWRP and sit there.
Did you see the radio anywhere? I didn't see it.
Also, I think it did flash the modules probably: Because my custom new photosphere-capable camera and new Android keyboard are now gone.
Thanks.

download the above file and put it with your fastboot / adb files
boot the phone to fastboot usb
open command prompt from the fastboot folder
type
fastboot flash recovery Recovery_Cingular_US_3.17.502.3.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
now your ready to flash the ota.zip
Many have problems just using the stock recovery alone.. if this is your situation you need to RUU back to 3.17.502.3 First.

don't panic if you can access recovery your fine
download a rom and push it to your phone
boot phone to recovery / go advanced / screen / timeout never
on you pc you should have a folder with adb and fastboot
put the rom you choose in the folder with adb
then open a command prompt in the same folder (shift + right click - command prompt here)
in the window type
adb devices
your serial number should be here
adb push rom.zip /sdcard/
let it copy is takes a few min and you can tell it's done
now from your phone go to install
find the rom.zip and flash
you should be up and running
Is the RUU available yet? Can someone please provide a link if it is? Thanks.

you seem very confused .. you can't flash any of these OTA like a rom it won't work !!
users using custom ROMs can't download latest OTA from HTC,
1) If you want to download and flash latest OTA, your device must have completely stock system partition and recovery. Every OTA update is checking MD5 of each file on system partition to ensure .apk patch can be applied. If even one of 1000 files won't match, OTA update installation will fail. In this case you need to flash the latest official update you can find (A RUU) (even one year old) and later download official OTA updates.

Stock HTC One, at&t, just updated to 4.4.2 yesterday morning (approx 11am EST).
I was able to successfully edit three pictures... The first, a simple rotate, changed the pic and ovetwrote the original. The second, also from a separate folder, I cropped a pic and saved it. This created a second image of the edited content. Finally, I edited a pic from the camera pic folder, which included crop and effects. This saved correctly as a separate file as well.
