So just flash stock recovery, relock bootloader, and run RUU??

Nope, just plug in your phone and run the RUU (its a .exe), it will take care of everything.
can this be rooted? and later bl unlock?
Yes it can be unlocked and rooted. Might have to ask for a new unlock code, if you relocked it. But that's it.

Yes and yes. Though running the RUU doesnt require you ro re-lock your BL and doesnt re-lock your BL after flashing. If you run with an unlocked BL you'll still have it unlocked.

You can just run this RUU since its official AT&T firmware you dont need to be S-OFF.

I'm having the same issue as well and can't find anything on it. For me the stock ruu installer finds the phone and reboots it then errors out on step one sending files to the phone, the HTC logo and black screen are there but no progress bar. Not willing to blow the 25$ on sunshine just to find out it won't work, I've read that it doesn't work on the 2014 AT&T HTC One M8 which is what i have. I hope you get help on this matter, seems there're issues with trying to mod this phone like S-Off seems impossible and twrp recovery flashes to your boot partition "Which i did and now stuck with a glitchy boot"
ok heres what i did. i am currently s on i was rooted and bl unlocked. i tried running the ruu like that and it didnt work. so i flashe stock recovery and relocked. tried again an done. it worked perfectly. now gong to bl unlock and root
---------- Post added at 03:49 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:26 AM ----------
got token and htc devs new .bin had bl unlocked and installed twrp and got root. great success
GPE help
How would you install this RUU from a GPE RUU since the GPE has a smaller partition. Would it be the same procedure EX: change the CID then flash or do i have to do another method?
There is a lot of confusion on this thread.
To be clear, if s-on, the bootloader must be RELOCKED or LOCKED in order for RUU to run.
The only exception to this, is if you have s-off (I'm guessing that is the reason some responses above say UNLOCKED bootloader is okay, since s-off would be the only reason this would be true).
You do not need to flash stock recovery to RUU. This is only necessary for OTA. RUU will flash all new partitions, including stock recovery.

May or may not work. I've heard reports of both. You may have to flash the extracted firmware.zip first, then RUU, as some folks have had to do.

Download the latest RUU. If you locked your bootloader after using htc dev, all you would have to do is flash the new global RUU as normal and unlock (If you want) the bootloader again.

Is the new RUU the one from the Android Police website? Yes, I unlocked the bootloader via HTC Dev, and I just relocked "fastboot oem lock".
I have it rooted, so I guess now it can't boot, as it only boots into bootloader.

Since your relocked, just place it on root sd as PH98IMG.zip and reboot into bootloader to flash.

Alright, I'll try that. If I come up with any errors (I'll be sure if it's one), I'll come back and talk of it.
...As soon as I'm about to type what was going wrong, it decided to fix itself SOMEHOW and continue.
...Well, so far, it has appeared to be working fine! Not sure if this will fix the blue screen problem, but all I was really hoping for was to get the stock Rezound ICS update.
Thanks so much! You've been really helpful. It was much simpler than I was expecting. I'll see about rooting at a later date
Not sure how it works or the slang around here but "bump"? or "thanks" button pressed xD

I am in a similar state and I have one follow up question. I read in another thread that before relocking my bootloader, I would need to Flash stock recovery because I have Amon-Ra installed. Is flashing the stock recovery absolutely required before relocking and flashing the new global ruu?
Thanks in advance.

No, you don't need to flash stock recovery. The RUU will do that for you. Just make sure you're locked before you flash the RUU. Unlock and re flash your choice of recovery after RUU is complete.

Remove/replace the battery and restart the bootloader and try flashing the RUU again. If that doesn't work you can try flashing the RUU.exe from Windows with the bootloader in "fastboot USB" mode.

one thing i have learned is when flashing roms, make sure you have the correct firmware package, and hboot.. because some Roms use the VM Firmware from the leak a few months back, while others use the Sprint Firmware, also depending on the base of the rom you may need to flash a newer or older hboot

That should be the same thing as long as the RUU.zip is extracted from the RUU.exe and properly signed.
But coal is right about needing the bootloader locked/relocked to flash the RUU if you are S-ON (which the OP said he is), regardless of whether you use the RUU.exe or RUU.zip.

I don't think so.
You really should try flashing an RUU (.exe or .zip) with radio S-ON and an unlocked bootloader before you advise other users to try that. If you can do that successfully I will admit I am wrong in this thread. Otherwise, please stop insisting that it will work.
You have been ignoring the fact that the OP is S-ON throughout this thread and that really isn't going to help him at all.

Thank you. I will make one last post just so people are clear on the requirements for flashing an RUU with S-ON.
Here's a quote from mpgrimm2's My Running stock RUU Reference info post:
Note 3: If you previously did the HTC Unlock, you'd have to "RELOCK" BEFORE running the RUU.
To do this from fastboot type: fastboot oem lock
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
That guide has been around for a long time on XDA and another website and it has been used by a lot of people, including myself. If that information was wrong, I'm sure mpgrimm2 would have corrected it by now.
If you want to flash an RUU with S-ON and an unlocked bootloader, make sure that you relock it before flashing or you will get an error.
ramjet73
wloftus, I'm not saying you're lying since as you said, you were the one who did it and you say it worked for you. But, if one is s-on and unlocked, the ruu will error out with error 155. I google searched ruu lock bootloader error and found many sites that say the bootloader must be locked if s-on (see below). But, if one wants to try while leaving the bootloader unlocked, then be my guest. If it works, great; if not, then relock the bootloader.

There's a thread here that discusses, but people seem to have used various methods to solve it from restarting the bootloader to reflashing their unlock token. That's why I recommended in my first post of this thread that you remove/replace the battery and restart the bootoader.

I have read pages and pages from the Android Development forum for the HTC Evo 4G LTE and I can't seem to find a solution that works for me because going S-OFF or re-locking bootloader and loading RUU does not seem feasible for my situation.
The phone has custom recovery (TWRP) and we successfully loaded Viperboy's deodexed 3.15 stock ROM.
Baseband is 1.02.12.0427 (super outdated)
This phone was bought second hand and is a HTC dev unlocked phone, S-ON
I would like to update the baseband to 1.12.11.1200 and update the firmware to 3.16
Caveats: I don't have access to the phone, my friend can reload custom ROMs through TWRP, but beyond that I don't think we can go through Dirty Racun and S-Off, I don't know how we can easily check the HBOOT version to determine if the HBOOT version is 1.12
What would happen if we accepted the Sprint OTA? Are we SOL with the baseband because we are S-ON?
Is there any way we can get on MeanBean 3 or stock rooted 3.16?
Any advise would be greatly appreciated.
I wouldnt accept the OTA update to 3.16
I actually did just that when I relocked my phone on Saturday and had all sort of problems after that. Now, I'm not too sure you would even be able to install the update being that your phone is unlocked *citation needed*.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2135670 - talks about the 3.16 OTA problems
thanks, I've definitely advised my friend to stay away from the OTA and disregard it. I think we are experiencing call/wifi issues due to the old baseband. I wonder what are the next possible steps to move forward from here...

1. Stay on this baseband and deal with it.
2. Relock and RUU your way up to 3.15 (stay away from 3.16)
3. S-off and Flash a couple full firmware zips.
Sadly I think those are your only option. And to check your hboot just boot into bootloader. Hold volume down when powering on.

Thanks, I think that seems realistic, I'm concerned that if I relock through HTCDev, I read that some email/password might go to the original seller of the phone (ebay) for confirmation code, so I don't want to get stuck halfway
I am definitely crossing my fingers for HBoot v1.12, to confirm, once I check my version in the bootloader, I guess I can escape without taking any of the menu options (checking YouTube, I'll just go to recovery, enter TWRP, reboot, system).

Relocking the phone is done through fastboot on the computer. Nothing to do with HTC. And Dev unlocked means you get an unlock token from HTC to the email that you signed up with. So if you make your own account on HTC dev and request a token, it should send nothing to the other owner.
And sorry, but I don't understand what you mean by having Hboot 1.12. You mean only flashing the radio through recovery? If that's what you mean than I can't help with that. Not sure how that works or if there are problems with that.
great news! I had someone take screen shots of the HBoot (v.1.12.0000) and TWRP (v2.2.1) menu

So as far as I know, I'm going to make sure there's nothing wrong with the TAMPERED, and then I can flash 1.12.11.1210 through Captain_Throwbacks Radio Only zip and then looks for a 3.16 custom firmware compatible with S-On since I'm on build number 3.15.651.16 CL124461.
I'd appreciate anyone to chime in if I'm going down a bad path here. Cheers!

You've indeed unlocked the bootloader properly but this only let's you flash recoveries and custom roms. You have to S-OFF the phone to update firmware via bootloader. You're other option would be to RUU which would upgrade the firmware and software and that CAN be done with S-ON, however there is a problem with the update which disables touch input so you should either wait for a dev to make custom 3.16 rom and forget about the firmware OR wait for a fix from HTC and run that RUU whenever it comes out.

Thanks xlxcrossing! I messaged Captain for a a recovery flash for the baseband only and he said my approach is no good either. So seems like I have to RUU to get off 1.12 anyways since LazyPanda is not supported and DirtyRacun starts at 1.15
So I am looking at the UNLIMITED.IO site now
step 1) relock via fastboot
step 2) RUU 1.15 or 1.19 (so this means my firmware/software/hboot will be updated as well?)
From here if I stop, I will be S-ON so I can...
option 1) RUU 2.09 and stay on 3.15
option 2) unlock bootloader from HTCDev and stay S-ON
option 3) unlock bootloader from HTCDev and DirtyRacun S-OFF (which actually seems like a very simple process once unlocked)

Thanks xlxcrossing! I messaged Captain for a a recovery flash for the baseband only and he said my approach is no good either. So seems like I have to RUU to get off 1.12 anyways since LazyPanda is not supported and DirtyRacun starts at 1.15

Sent you a PM
The advice is free....the bandwidth, not so much
Just wanted to say thank you all for the support and advice.
I finally walked my friend over gtalk and successfully achieved S-OFF after relock, 1.15 RUU, unlock with HTC DEV, dirtyracun
Then updated full firmwares incrementally to 3.16
Then while trying to load MeanBean, realized we lost TWRP (and possibly root, need to confirm), I can only guess that went away with the RUU? That's not really documented anywhere unless that's a known thing.
TWRP installation via goomanager failed (maybe due to lack of root), I was able to find TWRP v2.3.1 bootloader, installed that and installed MeanBean 3.0.4
I think that makes us up to date, however we will likely install SuperSU via TWRP once we customize and ensure the phone is running smoothly.
Thanks again all!
Super su is included with the ROM

Hi All. I'm sorry to ask this question again but I've been to the other threads and they are pretty old and I'm finding some of the links are not working and I don't want to start until I have everything I need.
I've had my Rezound for many many years and it's time to move on so I need to get this thing back to lookin like I never tampered with it. If someone could point me to a thread that works or help with this that would be most appreciated.

Recovery is RA Vigor v3.16
Thanks
I think, you must unlock bootloader first here (your phone is s-off now). Video on youtube (see untill flash custom recovery)
Then see here: How to remove your "tampered" banner.
Video on youtube from 10:48
After lock the bootloader: from fastboot "fastboot oem lock" (command without ".") and flash stock rom
Finaly your phone will have the status: relocked, s-off, stock rom.
Thanks g-ray666. That worked just fine although the link for the latest RUU never worked. I found an older version which is fine. Is there any way to get S-on?

I think no, but 100% not sure. For other HTC phone I saw the instructions but for rezound - no.
I'll check my mega acct and see what I have on there for you

Are you s-off or s-on, as in is you're boot loader locked? This may be fixable if it is. If you're running a custom Rom/recovery it is unlocked

Mine is s-on and unlocked. I have read other thread for different phone , that it can be fix by flash it with stock recovery. But I cant do it properly because I couldn't find my stock recovery to flash. ??
Which htc one max do you have? Sprint, Verizon, gsm, international. Somewhere out there someone has a copy of the original. If yours is Verizon I have that one.
I believe reflashing the recovery Will fix you're issue as its a common failure with a bad Rom/flash/install
Are you currently running a stock rom/recovery or are you running just a custom recovery or recovery and Rom?

Mine is international HK 3.20.708 and currently im running custom recovery but for Rom, as i remember, i never flash any custom Rom before. This is the link i use for root and flash custom recovery. http://wccftech.com/root-htc-one-max/ There is no Custom Rom provide at that page, so i guess i only running custom recovery .

I have found my ruu in this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2643973 , but the link at that thread not exist anymore. I just wish one of them can give me the exist one. I already try text them in private. but i guess they don't active anymore.
Find a different recovery and try it instead, not sure if cwm or twrp has one for you're phone but they do for most
