[Q] HTC Amaze. Can't get any ROM / RUU to work - HTC Amaze 4G

Hello everyone. I need some help here. I am a noob ( 7 out of 10, on the noobometer)
my device is HTC Amaze (carrier Wind in Canada). Bootloader unlocked, S ON, Rooted, Recovery TWRP (latest version). H boot: 1.93.0002 CID: GLOBA001
I had ICS before I started rooting and everything. I completely deleted the stock version without any back up. I tried installing Kit Kat, install would go through, but then the phone will get stuck on bootloop. Same happened when I tried Jelly Beans, and CM 10.
(I followed all the procedures of wiping device and flashing ROMs)
Then decided to go back to stock. I found a stock version on this site. http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/HTC_Amaze_4G/ROMs#Stock_ROMs
locked the bootloader, change the file name to required name, and yet it does not install. after bootloader checked the SD card and checked the ruu zip, it does nothing.
I tired this with Ginger bread version stock, and the installation will complete, but then when the phone reboots, again it gets stuck in boot loop.
I tried executing and exe version of the stock ruu through usb, and the installation will fail saying hboot is older!
Can anyone please help me? I need to either go back to sock ICS or install Jelly Beans . But I need the phone to operate, most of all.
Do I need to S off? is that why I am having all this issue? and If I do need to S off, how can I do that now? now that I dont have any stock rom on the phone. (according to my research, you need stock ROM to S off.)
Thank you in advance.

bootloop

Bootloop because nothing flashes S-ON except 4EXT recovery. 4EXT recovery will pre-flash the kernel, if you enter the 4EXT recovery settings and tell it to use "Smart Flash."
You can search the forum and find the instructions to get 4EXT recovery on your phone (I think WinDroid Universal will do it) Then you can go back and flash your ICS ROM.
Currently the most stable are the ICS--unless you want to play around or start dev'ing or just for fun, GB is too old, and KK is too new.

Thanks a lot. Your reply gave a some hope and I went back to working on it. However, when in 4EXT, I started have the issue of "can't mount SD card. Neither my internal or external SD card would mount.
Then I did some more research that found out that I can also manually Flash boot.img if I didn't use 4EXT. And much to my surprise that worked!!
So my phone is working now in CM 10. however, I still can't mount my SD cards, internal and external. Would you be able to help me that too?
Thanks in advance.

Glad you found a good way to do that, and are self-motivated.
When mine wouldn't mount, I went into the 4EXT tools, told it to check the partitions, repair the filesystem, fix permissions, and then it worked for me. It was is if it had to re-discover the cards or something..., I really don't know. If that don't fix it for you, come back and someone else will have some ideas.
And search around a little--I'm sure that's happened to others.

I did the 4EXT sd card check, file system check, partition check, but still having the same issue. Also, Its only happening to Internal SD card. The external SD card is mounting now (I guess after doing the checks in 4EXT)
I am doing searches now, lets see what I can come back with.

You might try it without the external SD in it. Also, someone recently said something about a special way to format the internal I think.
Maybe it was here:

That's the stock recovery. If you think that you are rooted with a custom recovery like Amon_RA, it sounds like either you are not, or you were and somehow you restored the stock recovery.
So, are you rooted? Is this the first time that you tried to get into Recovery? What method did you use to root the phone?
Universal 1 Click Eris Root App Apk - No PCs, No Scripts Needed, EASY
I'm not sure what I did wrong. I guess I need to know where I need to start from to restore the phone. So if someone can point me to the right direction that would be great. Also I'm not sure if the phone is Rooted still , I think were I messed up is where, I was installing custom ROM on the phone When it was booting up. It locked up at the loading spring. i installed GSB.v3.0-CM7.0.2-Eris
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=792026 this will put you back to stock unrooted or download the rootcheck app in the market and check if you have root
if so then dont flash back to stock download rom manger and use that to flash a recovery either clockwork or scroll down and flash amons recovery i recommend amon ra recovery

Wait, so that sounds like you actually had Amon_RA recovery?
Question: when you installed GSB, did you wipe data/factory reset? And also flash Google apps?
If you start in the bootloader (hold VolDn when you power up), there should be a prompt to press VolUp to start in Recovery. If you press power up, do you get the Amon_RA recovery or do you get the exclamation point with triangle?
I fixed it last night I installed Amon_RA recovery . But I went back to GSB v3.0 where I messed up the first time installed find the second time but my SD card is not recognizing anymore. in the os. Only my 1gb SD card works now.

Did you ever partition the card for apps2sd on a ROM like xtrROM? If so, you'll need to repartition the card so it has only one partition. (You do this the same way that you partitioned - namely:
- backup the contents of your SD card
- restart in Recovery
- partition SD card menu
- partition SD
- set the options for partition sizes for ext2 and swap to 0 bytes
That will reset the card to a single partition, formatted fresh.
Thanks you guys, it's completely working now.
good news
it sure is good news. But now my friend has one that he's willing to sell me for $10.00 but it does not boot and I've been trying to fix it . I would like to get it for my girlfriend but figure if there's anything that can be done to it I think it's a paperweight. I can get to HBoot and fastboot . But not to recovery.
But for 10 bucks you can't beat it for parts right if I cant fix it

Well have you tried the same thing for that phone as your phone you just got working? I'm pretty sure if you can get to hboot and faatboot then there's still hope. I just don't know how to fix but I'm sure someone will help you out soon enough

CleanRom Pro Edition

I tried posting this in the actual thread but It said I had to come here for help...
I flashed this ROM and went through with updating the Boot.img all fine, however every time I boot into the Bootloader, it attempts to "update" the boot.img.
After Installing this rom I tried to install a sense 4.0 one, and I couldn't get back to the recovery because the bootloader wouldn't let me do anything but update the boot.img.
Any idea why it tries to update everytime?
Delete the PH98IMG.zip file from your SD Card.....
I was able to boot into AmonRa however my phone gets a black screen after the HTC splash screen.

That wasn't your original problem, what else have you done to the phone...
I'd suggest booting in Recovery, mount USB, remove the PH98IMG.zip from the root of SD, wipe and start over.
When you're all done, you'll have a new PH98IMG.zip on the root of SD, delete it.

Hey thanks for the help...
I removed the zip like you said, then I flashed CleanRom again, because my earlier Nandroid wasn't working. I'm booting into CleanRom now. I'll let ya know if its working...
Thanks a ton for the help! Got it booted and everything seems to be working alright...
I came from a DX, so rooting, flashing, etc was much much easier. I thought I read through the directions for rooting/flashing the rezound but I guess I'll have to reread.
Again, thanks for your help.
No problem.

Biggest regret trying to Root & Flash! (PLEASE HELP REVIVAL)

Sigh...
Sorry to rant here. hoping i can get answers, to common problems obviously but even though i researched & tried many stuff that i'm unfamiliar with, after 15hours trying, i decided to post.
Certain issues came up while flashing, some fixed(accidentally), but now my HTC one x+ (Asia), which was perfect, is stuck with a non-working ROM which does't get any Radio (no network/sim), also the SD card (internal) is not detected.
I JUST WISH TO GO BACK TO STOCK ROM NOW...
I know how to UNLOCK it using ALL IN ONE TOOLKIT.
I'm now dowloading (on a slow internet in Philippines) an (OTA_EVITA_UL_JB_45_S_hTC_Asia_WWE_3.17.707.1_0.23a.32.09.29_10.128.32.34a_release_299070u0mcx8aiaku8jgn4.zip),
hoping i will be able to go to Bootloader, fastboot & just click the RUU?
(honestly i dont even know if it will be an EXE, & the correct way)
I'm just hoping if i can re-lock the device, and run a RUU exe, i will have my phone again.
What i did to end up like this below (if anyone bothers to read)
first it was stuck at boot, then i flashed more stuff im aware of, trying to fix anything. i think i shall skip mentioning what i tried as i myself not sure what i did.
bottom line, now the htc one x+ turns on, charges, gets wifi (but no data network & no sd storage)
SD card (while detected, was wiped clean) - no ROMS there now.
I cannot go into RECOVERY BOOT, and pc sometimes recognises the ONE X+ device, but not as a storage card!!??
I have no backup in the Sd anyway..
someone please help me...
i think my post above doesnt make sense, as im so tired trying to fix it by researching.
if there is a simple STEP BY STEP guide to going back to stock ROM please help.
(i'm guessing what i can find for HTC one x can also be used for HTC one x+???)
i saved up many months for this phone.
i loved it so much, & it was perfect, but i wanted to try tweaking & trying the 4.2.1...
i regret it so much as im stuck..my brain is not working anymore after reading so much..
hi
to anyone who can give me a quick reply..
at this point, i have no ROM in my HTC One X+
I am trying my hardest to get back the stock ROM
so now im downloading the RUU exe.
RUU_ENRC2B_U_JB_45_hTC_Asia_WWE_1.14.707.16_Radio_3.1204.167.31_release_290413_signed.exe
I really think thats the right one for my CID
NOW, after it completes download, (in about 3more hours!)
I intend to RE-LOCK my phone.
Go into FASTBOOT, connect to PC & simply RUN the RUU exe file..
MY QUESTION
Is this the right way? i tried with another RUU exe whih was for Cingular,USA, obviously it said WRONG RUU! but it was starting to TRY TO FLASH/INSTALL etc..so it seems like if i get the right RUU it will work??
(i found some links to use the COMMAND PROMPT but i tried & i still cannot get it fixed..)
please..i know this is all a common problem.. but i really just want my phone back.. at least to working condition..
im now thinking of bringing it to some repair shop, but i don't know anywhere here that can fix android or HTC.. i'm in Cebu, philippines by the way...
Sideload
You can try adb sideload option with TWRP recovery and a custom ROM. That should solve your problem. Finding correct RUU and installing them does not work easily most of the times.
To revert back to your original RUU, you need to
- relock your bootloader
- go to USB fastboot (connecting the the phone to your PC)
- run your Asian RUU from PC and follow instructions and wait
Thank you Steve0007 (I like your Avatar!)
Yes, i'm hoping it will be simple...
(Is it correct after i relock the device, the bootloader shows RE-LOCKED!?? , just curious as i don't know what it says before.. shouldn't it say.. LOCKED??).. oh well..
Sadly i'm using super slow internet to download whatever i can...
now i'm waiting for the Asian RUU (executable) to be downloaded, so i can try this method!
In the meantime..i'm gonna keep reading up about other methods.
thnks so much!

I've been flashing ROMS and customising stuff on WINDOWS MOBILE since 2005/6 since the O2 Mini days.. but now i decided to 'ply' around with my device and find out i know NUTS!

Yes Andy1969, thanks.
I've been trying for about 17hours total now... (i realise i must be not as 'techie' as i thought!)
i have refrained from flashing ever since i got HTC touch, Touch Dual, Diamond, HD, Sensation, One X and now finally got my dream phone One X+.. which is almost perfect.. But i had an itch to start fiddling with it after owning it for just about 2 months...
even though i regret it, at this moment.. i feel that somehow after i learn more..my addiction to flashing may come back just like in those Windows Mobile days!

I managed to install TWRP!
now when i choose RECOVERY it goes straight to the TWRP...
i dont really know why the SLIM ROM sideloading did not work... as in SD card (as stated in TWRP) shows only the TWRP folder...
but at least im seeing progress...
i will keep trying sideloading some ROMS... maybe need to change name of file etc??
anyway..when i got into TWRP..1st thing i did was back up... at least for now..its better than being totally bricked...
i am back into the non-fully-working AOKP Jelly Bean 4.2.1 Custom ROM which doesnt recognise my sim or my sd card...
I DID IT! (i think..i hope)
WELL...
by some fluke.i managed to use TWRP to sideload the SlimBean ROM.. wow... 1st it was all error..so since its in the SD partition, i used TWRP recovery to reflash...still many buggy errors... network was found but no calls can be made.. now i did a factory reset from the phone settings itself.. (not the TWRP) and wala... all seems to be fine..
wifi, text, calls all ok..
yet to test others.. its 12.45am now!
so i spent 2 full days for my silly trial... but its ok.. i learnt stuff anyway..
BUT the SD card problem still exists... no detected..will work on it tomorrow or try new roms etc..
but the SlimBean interface & 4.2.1 is really cool & different..
im pretty sure there will be some errors tomorrow.. (just have a feeling)..if not.. then it will be best..
for now.. HOME button doesnt get me back to HOME! (will try settings etc)..now checking out other settings before i get some rest!
cheers.. will update again tomorrow..
Good progress. Now you know how to bring your phone back to life

You keep saying "SD Card" problem. What do you mean by that? You do understand our phone has no SD Card or SD Card partition. What you think of as the SD Card is nothing but a folder called "media" on the /data/ partition. That means we can't do things like mount our device as mass storage on PC's or mount SD Card in recovery.

Yes i understand it doesn't have a 'physical' SD Card, but in Stock Rom, in File Explorer, it is recognised as SD Card.
Also, when plugged into PC, it is recognised as External Storage... from PC, it was possible to access the Internal Storage, and within that, the SD Card, which inluded DCIM, and whatever folders it had..
BUT now all tht 'SD' portion is gone.. Gallery cannot be viewed as there is no 'SD Card' (system prompt)
Camera doesn't work too as there is no 'SD Card' (system prompts again)
Help pls! Rom is gone! Usb unrecognized!
NOW its worse!! pls help!
I woke up this morning, turned the HOX+ on...
I found that most functions not working! (example-FILE MANAGER/CAMERA/BROWSER HAS STOPPED WORKING PROMPT,etc)
I knew that i will try re-flash today, so i went into TWRP recovery again & re-flashed the same SLIMbean rom.
still didnt work, so i wiped data etc...
I didnt realise I ALSO WIPED AWAY EVERYTHING!
SO NOW THERE IS NO ROM AGAIN..
if i boot it's STUCK AT HTC QUIETLY BRILLIANT screen, and worst, if i go into FASTBOOT, when i plug the usb into my Windows 8 PC, it DOESN'T say FASTBOOT USB anymore!!
so the pc doesnt recognise the device and i cannot use the all-in-one toolkit!

[Q] - Evo3D SDcard slot is dead?

Hello,
Im having problem that i couldent find any topic for anywhere, every topic is about bad card and no topics about bad slot.
So my SDcard slot is dead. And funny thing is it just stoped working without me doing nothing. I was not installing nothing or anything, screen just lighted up and it was showing that SD card was removed Phone ofcourse would not show me nothing in gallery, music etc.
My first thought was that SDcard died, but when i put my card in friends phone it is working perfectly well. I also tried putting his card in my Evo and same thing happened, it started to load files and imidiatly showed msg that card was removed unexpectadly.
So, as the problem was phone and not card, my first reaction was "Great, at least I didnt lost all my data on card, ill just return my phone to original ROM and send it for repair" becaose I have one year of warranty left.
But latter on I realized that i do not now a way of installing a ROM without an SDcard, and im not evan sure that is possilble,
So can annyone please help me with either fixing this card reader problem (if it is some way of software error) or helping me restore my phone to original ROM so I can send it for repear.
Thank you.
Go to recovery, do some wipe, when it's doing the wipe immidiatelly pul out battery. Do it till the phone dies. Now NOONE can find out you have root/custom recovery on it
Or, easy way, download newest RUU and flash it via PC (you don't need SD card i think).

Loving the first option, that is something Chuck Norris would do. But too bad ass for me Im afraid.
Second seems ok. I just need help to do it. I guess there is a tuttorial or something as im not so experienced in flashing. I did a s-off, rooted the phone and flashed the different ROMs like 20 times but thats it.
EDIT: I was just searching for a topic with instaling the rom directly from PC without SDcard and I really cannot find evan one.

Go here and download the file which match your phone's original carrier. Make sure you install HTC Drivers on your pc and run the exe file that you downloaded. Make sure also that you downloaded the right file which should have the SHOOTERU or SHOOTER_U word on the name and NOT SHOOTER ( shooteru is for GSM and shooter is CDMA ). The software will install the original ICS firmware released by your carrier. The downside to this method is that it will also update your hboot which depending on your carrier might be hard to downgrade to lower hboot for flashing custom roms.

[Q] Soft bricked in possibly a unique situation

First post, be gentle. I've been researching these forums for a few days, but im really looking for a direct answer. I attempted to flash CM on my evo LTE, using twrp. I rooted, unlocked bootloader, got all of the sdk tools, flashed twrp with fastboot, and made a backup. somehow wherever the image was saved went corrupt and CM didnt work, and now i have no OS, and no backup, and my adb wont recognize device, but fastboot will, any advice?
aslo, i cant mount usb storage through recovery anymore, but i could when i started

Download a rom on you computer, boot to recovery place rom on internal storage and then flash, should get you working again, also a little more info on device wouldn't hurt, hboot, s-off?

i have never used S-off, because im a noob, and my hboot is 2.09 radio 1.13.11.0830. my computer doesnt recognize the internal storage when i try to mount in recovery, could my internal storage be corrupt?
Do you have a microSD card? If so, load the ROM there, then put it in your phone. Afterwards, hit the top link in my sig and read the portion of the guide regarding S-on kernel flashing. I highly suggest gaining S-off once you get your issues resolved. My guide will explain more.
It does sound like your internal storage may be corrupt. You'll need to connect to a PC while in recovery, mount your internal storage and format it when prompted to do so on your PC. Take a look at the link below for more info.
