You flashed old recovery for lollipop on mm, that's your problem. If the computer recognizes your phone you'll have to flash the stock recovery img for mm, when it is available. Try pressing and holding volume down while plugging in usb connected to pc. You should be able to enter fastboot mode that way.

hahaha, well now that makes sense. who brought the new guy, hahaha. thanks for the info.
I can get into the fastboot menu, but its stuck at the reboot screen so i cant continue with the process after than, and then my computer gets stuck "waiting for devices". oh well, phone still works right now, ill just have to wait for the super groovy dev on here to put out the marshmallow software that i require.
again thanks for the knowledge.

Of course. It should be able to be unlocked again from what I'm seeing.

Same as before, fastboot oem unlock or whatever it was, but when I did that under LP, I don't remember the phone resetting everything back to square one, which it does now.

Unlocking the bootloader factory resets.

There is two for mm v10 already, and the bootloader is unlocked, the problem is that a lot of the fastboot commands are locked up... So we can't fastboot recovery, and without that we can't root.
Common sense isn't all that common

[Q] Flashed Stock Kernel, Now stuck in loop.

Hello,
My amaze 4g is currently running GB with the bullet proof custom rom i found here a couple years ago.
The boot loader is unlocked, and it is S-ON.
I wanted to try and update my phone to an ICS rom such as NRGZ28's energy Rom found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1362759.
First attempt, I factory reset the phone, cleared cache and cleared dalvik cache and flashed the rom. I chose the option to install it using the stock HTC kernel. The installation went smooth without errors until the final reboot to finalize the installation. The phone gets stuck in the white screen with the green htc logo on it. I recover using Clock Work Mod and everything is back to the old GB setting.
I assume it is because i have an outdated kernel so I go to NRGZ28's thread and download the stock kernel he has posted there. I flashed the kernel using Flash Image GUI apk. This is where the problem happens. After flashing the kernel, the phone is stuck on infinite loop at the above mentioned htc screen.
I flash the energy rom with the newly flashed stock kernel and the phone finally gets past the htc logo screen, but freezes shortly after during the blue animated splash screen and proceeds to repeat this. I can get into boot loader just fine, but am unable to get my phone working again even after a Clock work mod recovery.
please help!!
There is a special process you have to follow when going from GB to ICS, you can't just flash the latest kernel and expect it to work with ICS.
I would do a full wipe/factory reset, then follow the instructions here to upgrade to ICS stock, then you can install whatever ICS ROM you want:

Alright now I'm having a completely unrelated trouble trying to re-lock my bootloader. Yes, I am S-on. I've tried to factory reset but the phone still ends up looping on the htc logo screen. I type in "fastboot oem lock" on sdk but it just hangs at "waiting for device".

Are you able to get into the bootloader, fastboot, or recovery? I'm unsure of which HTC screen you are talking about, if it is the one before trying to boot into Android then I would just ignore it for now. If you're having trouble relocking the bootloader, you might try this toolkit, which includes a tool to relock the bootloader: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1493905
All this stuff can probably be found in the HTC Amaze Bible, which you should probably familiarize yourself with before messing around and potentially bricking your phone. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1679486

If you can get into the bootloader, fastboot, and recovery, then you should be able to continue the steps and get it working again. Try the Toolkit method of relocking bootloader and continue upgrade to ICS.

The all-in-one toolkit is not recognizing my device. Not sure if it's a problem with windows or the toolkit.
Also, it seems the toolkit only works if you are able to actually get to your phone's home screen, which I am unable to do.
So frustrating.....

Here are some more instructions: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1575550&highlight=relock+bootloader
It seems as though the problem is with ADB communicating with your phone. Type in "ADB devices" to see if it is detecting your phone.
Also make sure the file "fastboot.exe" is in the same folder as your ADB file that your command prompt is using.
---------- Post added at 03:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:03 PM ----------
Also are you in bootloader or fastboot when you are trying to do this? I believe you should be in fastboot.
To enter fastboot: Boot into bootloader (hold power and volume down button), scroll down to fastboot, hit the power button.
Now try executing the fastboot command using adb. (remember to make sure fastboot.exe is in same folder as adb)
Alright, so I got it relocked by hooking it up to an old tower. It seems it was an issue with windows not recognizing my phone for some reason.
NOW, there's a new problem. On the bootloader menu, on the top it says "RELOCKED". I choose the recovery option, and it immediately takes me back to the bootloader menu displaying a "Security Warning" message under "RELOCKED".
I am going to cry.:crying:

This is good... I think. You can now move on to the next step in these instructions: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1575550&highlight=relock+bootloader
You have to rename the RUU to what is says in that link, place it on an external SD card, then reboot into bootloader. Then it should automatically install the update (there might be a prompt, just hit yes).

Yes!!! I finally got it to work! Oh my god thank you so much. Thanks for being so patient with me. I dont know what more i can do do express my gratitude. It just felt amazing to see everything working and falling into place after hours and hours of hopelessness.
So from here on, I assume I just get back onto the boot loader menu, Unlock the boot loader again, then flash the rom I want.
Thank you again.

You can flash any *ICS* ROM you want. There's another process if you want to go back to GB (though I'm not sure why you would want to).
You should be able to use the Toolkit to unlock the bootloader again, and I would recommend flashing the 4ext recovery while you're at it. From there you should be good!

Thats fine now since you are locked you can download the ruu file pertaining to your phone/carrier and put it in the root of your external sd card and boot into the bootloader and it will automatically detect the ruu and start updating. however you must rename the ruu appropriately (depending on which carrier your phone is) for T-Mobile you rename the ruu file ph85img and it detects it automatically. Good luck

Yep I was just overreacting. After I renamed the ruu file, everything fell into place and my phone is now functioning with ICS.
So apparently, my phone isn't rooted anymore? is this normal?
Flashed 4ext using the all-in-one tool kit. Nothing happened. Can't run any apps that require root. I'm confused.
Yeah, that's totally normal after flashing an RUU and relocking the bootloader. Just re-root, here's a really easy tool for it: http://theunlockr.com/2012/05/01/how-to-root-htc-amaze-4g/

That tool doesn't work for some reason, even though its the tool I used when I first rooted my phone. I just went and did the fastboot flash unlock_code.bin to unlock my phone again.
But for some reason, I can't get 4ext to flash... I went through the steps in the link you provided but my phone doesn't show the app nor am i able to access it through the recovery option from the boot loader menu.

Completely stock, stuck on white htc boot screen

I have only seen a few threads where people were stuck on the white htc boot screen. And they were all rooted with custom roms and such. And if this was my phone, I would also be rooted with custom roms.
But this is my dads phone. Completely stock from the day he bought it. Two days ago, out of nowhere, it decided just to never turn on again.
It boots to the white htc screen and then hangs there. Every few seconds the screen will blink. I tried to remove the sim card and boot the phone because I read that can be an issue. But notta.
Hes not worried about his phone, (I know I can do a factory reset on it and get it running again). Hes worried about all of his data. He had a lot of very sentimental stuff on his phone. My Grandpa just passed away and he had all kinds of pictures and stuff on there. Now a lot of that might be on the sd card, but I don't know how much is on the phone storage itself.
So I have a bricked stock recovery, stock rom, not rooted rezound, and I need to know if its possible to get any data off of the onboard storage.
I have the drivers and I have tried to use adb from the stock recovery, but it adb will not recognize the device. Fastboot however does recognize the phone, but from my understanding, I can't do any backing up with fastboot. I would need adb for that. I have also read that adb will not recognize the stock recovery, that you need a custom recover like clockwork first. But In order for my to install clockwork, I would have to unlock the bootload and therefore wipe out all the phones data anyways.
So Im really having a hard time here. I don't want to have to tell my dad that any pictures of my grandpa that weren't on the sdcard are gone now.
Is there any way?
Thanks for the help

I think so, ill have to double check when i get home from work in a bit. Im assuming because fastboot detects the phone fine.
If fastboot sees the phone and works, is there any way to pull the data off the phone? I was under the assumption that you could only "pull" and "push' files from adb.
So adb won't detect the phone at all unless the rom is running? So adb is out of the question?

Ok, im a little confused right now. Im sorry. Im not used to this phone, I personally have a Galaxy nexus which I rooted and put custom Rom'ed etc, and it was a little different.
When you say "use fastboot commands while in botloader / hboot"
What do you mean? When I start the phone by holding down the volume down key, it brings up the stock bootloader with a few options. (fastboot, recovery, factory reset, reload bootloader, and power off, I believe) But im not sure what you mean by hboot?
Fastboot only works if I select the fastboot from the bootloader on the phone. Then on the pc "fastboot devices" command detects the phone.
From there I should be able to use fastboot commands to pull data off of the phone your saying. Forgive me for this, but how do I know what commands to use to pull all the data off?
Again, thanks for coming in here and choosing to try and help me

fastboot will only allow you to use commands...for example...extract the boot.img outta the rom you tried flashing and put it in the folder on your pc where you have fastboot stored....then cd into the folder in command prompt and type "fastboot flash boot boot.img" without the quotations....if you read my s-off you will never have to use fastboot to flash anything at all....as for adb there really isnt much you can do to "pull" stuff from your phone...htc works much different than samsung or any other androids
Edit: because you are s-on you always have to do this for flashing anything....including recovery....you have to unlock your bootloader via htcdev.com to run any fastboot commands though

Ohhhh ok, that would be great.
Im still a little scared about that though, because on my phone, unlocking the bootloader automatically factory rest and wiped data. And I keep reading everywhere that unlocking the bootloader on the rezound also wipes the data / factory resets. Even on the instructions posted here:
http://www.droidforums.net/forum/ht...nlocking-rooting-rom-ing-faq.html#post2083197
It states that your data will be wiped. And that the final steps asks you to confirm to a factory reset to unlock the bootloader?
I mean, I guess at this point its my only shot anyways, ill never get those pictures off with the bootloader locked. But are you certain that unlock wont do a factory reset?
Again, thanks for helping so far

Unlocking your bootloader with a stock phone/recovery will do a factory reset.
Mine reset when it was still stock and both guides here state the same thing. I believe if you have a custom recovery the phone can't auto run the factory reset.

I rarely disagree with you @REV3NT3CH, but I am going to have to this time and confirm @mjones73 statement... unlocking the bootloader wipes everything, it is clearly stated on HTCdev.com that it will do this as a security measure.

@REV3NT3CH
Can a signed ph98img ruu be altered with 7zip without breaking a signature? I think I might have an idea and it involves flashing an empty userdata img, stock system img and matching boot.
@hxdrummerxc
When you power on to fastboot relay the first 6 lines to me in upper left please.

[Q] [Need Help] HTC One Max won't boot but can use USB then restarts

Ok I am having a weird issue with my phone now which seems to be totally different than all stories people have posted.
All people that have posted similar problems can't boot the phone and it gets stuck at the HTC screen when booting and they mentioned they can't use USB and some can't even charge the phone.
But for my case, after the HTC screen the mobile loads in the lock mode, showing only the clock and at the top left where the notifications are it is showing a warning mark but I can't read it cause phone is locked of course.
The USB connection works and luckily the USB debugging is enabled so I can have access to the phone through USB, but the problem is that I am stuck there, when I try to unlock the phone by pulling the window up, the HTC green loading screen comes instead and then it gets stuck there. but still the USB connection is working fine.
But after a short time which is 1 or 2 minutes, the phone restarts itself and then boots up again and does the same thing into an infinite loop until I shut it down.
I have the phone saying on boot loader Tampered, Unlocked but sadly its showing S-On
I have tried all the ways to make it S-OFF to try and lock the bootloader and remove the tamper so maybe it would help booting but I Can't get it to S-OFF.
The reasons are that my Hboot version is 2.46 and the android version is 4.3 so the only 2 working S-OFF programs for my versions are rumrunner and firewater.
For firewater I can't use it as it requires internet connection, but as I statted I Can't access the phone at all and it doesn't connect to wifi or even my SIM.
Rumrunner I have tried it, but the problem is when rumrunner gets to the "test 2" phase it takes long and the phone restarts itself before it manages to finish resulting in a CCCC error and ending the rumrunner program.
I remember what created the problem, I was trying to fix the fingerprint sensor and I RELOCKED the booter with oem through htcdev to see if it would help, after that when I went in bootloader it showed TAMPERED, RELOCKED and SECURITY WARNING, I got really scared so I unlocked the phone again with the unlock bin and it went back to normal and the security warning was gone, but from there the problem started.
I have tried wiping the cahce and all data and doing factory reset then I tried installing new ROMs but it didn't work for some reason.
I downloaded the kitkat rom and the jelly bean 4.2.2 ROM and tried both of them, it installs fine and everything is ok but the problem doesn't go and what is more weird is that even tho I installed the Jelly bean 4.2.2 ROM thorugh the Recovery screen, the adb still shows that my android version is 4.3 so I still can't use programs like revone or moonshine.
Please help me repair my phone
Does anyone know what can be wrong or what can I do?
I find it weird that even when installing ROMS this problem still occurs as if I never formatted the phone or installed a new ROM.
And still says Android 4.3 regards of what I do.

try booting into bootloader then flash the boot.img from there. it sounds as if your boot.img is not flashing from recovery.
fastboot flash boot boot.img
is the command to flash the boot loader from fastboot usb.

I did that and now it gets stuck at HTC without opening the phone at all and can't connect USB to it when its on anymore and now restarts the phone after it gets stuck at HTC after 20 seconds or something.
Now boot to recovery and flash the rom again.

Ok untill you actually get this booting correctly, stop just trying different roms. You are S-ON this means you will need to boot to bootloader flash the boot.img first then reboot to recovery and flash the rom that came with the boot.img. you should be doing this with a stock rom and boot.img for you specific device to make sure it works correctly.
If this does not work for you , you will need to run the RUU for you specific carrier. You will need to relock your phone in order to do the ruu
If you are just mix matching your **** it will never work correctly.

Ok I have a quick question.
After the download is finished, how will I copy the ZIP file to my phone since it doesn't boot anymore.
Can I do that from the bootloader with fastboot? or do I need to get SD card and a reader to copy the data to it then put it on the phone?

You need TWRP recovery to install the ROM and i hope you have it already. If not download TWRP and flash it.
In TWRP you have the option to mount your SD card and that should make your phone available as USB on your computer.

You may want to flash the stock sense 6 ROM which is available @ http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2776665

Ok I don't know what actually happened but here is how it is.
I had Clockwork mod recovery so I flashed the TWRP you told me from this forums and right after I did and tried to go into recovery, the phone turned OFF and wouldn't get on again, also it showed me a battery with question mark on it so I thought maybe battery went out and it won't charge, after few minutes I found it showing HTC logo screen then it went off and wouldn't boot or open bootloader again.
I tried to press Volume up + power and all of a sudden it booted into the last ROM I installed which was CM 10.1 Nightflies I think and now the phone is working again some how
Ok it turned out to be that the Question mark screen is just the back ground of the TWRP recovery and it needed time to load thats all cause I managed to get into recovery now.
But the weird thing is that installing the TWRP recovery ONLY I didn't install or flash anything else, fixed the phone and its working fine now.
Now its working super fine.
I managed to make it S-OFF with firewater (rumrunner didn't work for me) and I locked it and removed the Tampered flag.
Now the phone is working great and finger print sensor is working again.
Thanks everyone for the help

Also since I installed the CM 10.1 and it had a google app package with it, it seems the google app package wasn't installed successfully when the phone was still broken.
Do you know any good ROM I should install that will come with the google app package? or anyway to get the original ROM or RUU I don't know
I mean the original OS

Need help please asap please!!!!

I think you mean you relocked the bootloader again, since that is what it said in your PM to me; and it makes more sense (based on what you are saying).
Relocking as you now know, is not (in itself) going to return you to stock. Think about that, where would the necessary stock ROM and other files magically come from?

adb only works when the phone is booted, and possibly in recovery. It will never work in bootloader or fastboot mode.
Check to see if the command works in fastboot mode: fastboot devices
If so, since you are already RELOCKED, just run the 4.28.502.2 RUU (as I've seen you asked for in another thread, which I also answered).
Thanks man.

Which screen is your phone currently booted to? Can you get into download mode? Try pressing both volume keys and power button at the same time. We'll take it from there
I can go to download mode.
Okay, good.
Connect phone and open command on PC and issue this command: fastboot devices
Check to see if your device shows up. If it does issue this command: fastboot rebootRUU
And then flash RUU.exe from computer.
Alternatively, select 'bootloader' in download mode. Once there select recovery and let me know what happens

The thing is I had a custom rom before relocking so my recovery doesn't boot. It boot loops and then after a few minutes goes back to boot loader. Right now, I can boot to boot loader and download mode. I will try a different laptop just in case the drivers aren't working. I'm taking a lecture right now so I'll do that as soon as I get home.
