New version 3.09 untested as I dont have a rezound. I have auto partition detection in this one and a few minor bug fixes. Please report back as I made lots of code changes to merge all recovery sources for nand and emmc devices together. I'll put on 1st page after reports come back ok on this one. Please flash via fastboot command below

fastboot flash recovery recovery-ra-vigor-3.09-gnm.img

Also I noticed a user asking about the sd-ext thats referring to the optional apps2sd extended partition ie mmcblk0p2 on sdcard not the external sdcard but I highly doubt anyone would need or want to partition the sdcard for apps2sd for this phone.

Downloading and flashing now - I'll report back in a bit with results.

Edit: After flashing the recovery loads as normal but with the following errors:

"E: Can't mount CACHE:recovery/command

E: Can't mount CACHE:recovery/log

E: Can't open CACHE:recovery/log"
[HTC Rezound] drellisdee:
Please get me a recovery log. Use the option under other and upload. Also can you do from adb shell in recovery "cat /etc/fstab" and paste output here.
[HTC Rezound] Deathbyfugu:
Alright - will do in a few minutes.

Recovery.log:
[HTC Rezound] drellisdee:
looks like htc changed the mmc partitions id's from older devices. I'll upload a test one for you and will need a recovery log as it will output the mmc partition info I'll need to recovery log. Note test one will still not function till I can get the new recovery log with new partition ids.
[HTC Rezound] Deathbyfugu:
Ok sounds good.
[HTC Rezound] drellisdee:
Ok http://www.mediafire.com/?dcb12pj9k72zz3x

after flashing go under dev menu and use the mmc partition test. It will output to recovery log. Please upload that log as an attachment as it will be long. Do not try flashing or anything from this test version.
[HTC Rezound] Deathbyfugu:
I'll do so right after I get home.

i think i installed this, but i'm not sure.

i've only ever used CWM, so im not sure what Amon Ra looks like.

at the top it says Android system Recovery,

and at the bottom it says: RA-VIGOR-v3.0.6-getitnowmarketing

the middle has a little image with the letters htc.

looking through the menus it appears to be a very powerful recovery, so i'm guessing it's amon ra.

thanks!
[HTC Rezound] hgoldner:
That sounds like it to me.
[HTC Rezound] RoyHinkley:
Are you using AR 3.15? It is for ICS - been using it with ICS for months now and have made and restored several backups no problem.
[HTC Rezound] HowardZ:
Yes, I am using Amon RA Recovery 3.15, the latest version. I keep the stock recovery flashed in case some OTA update comes in. Every time I want to use Amon RA recovery I use the fastboot command to "boot" it. "fastboot boot filename.img"

If restores are working for other people, then perhaps it is just some problem I am having. Perhaps because I boot it rather than flash it?
[HTC Rezound] shrike1978:
Restores are working fine for me, both on Sense ICS and on AOSP.
[HTC Rezound] RoyHinkley:
I'm surely no expert but I always access it on the phone through hboot.
[HTC Rezound] shrike1978:
"adb reboot recovery" or a rom reboot menu are my two most common ways to access it. hboot being a distant third.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Question:

I am working with the devs for OTA Updater and having a problem. The app downloads a zip and saves it to the external sdcard so when it reboots to recovery it is passing /sdcard wwhich works in CWM. That is I think the internal in AmonRa. For them to send the correct mountpoint for the exteral card what is it? ext_sd or sd-ext or sdcard2 or what?
[HTC Rezound] carycooke:
So why am i getting a FAILED (remote: not allowed) when i try to push over Amon 3.15 through ADB and im on new 2.27 HBOOT

I hope i didnt mess up by flashing latest 4.X.X.2 STOCK RUU but im S-OFF
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Did you take the .img out of the zip?
[HTC Rezound] antp121:
You have to unlock the bootloader, since you are on a signed hboot.
[HTC Rezound] hgoldner:
I ran the RUU last night and immediately afterwards flashed Amon Ra 3.15 without a problem. The most common error folks make is to either try to flash the ZIP file (i.e. PH98IMG.ZIP) in fastboot usb, or to try to flash the unzipped IMG file in bootloader. That's backwards; neither will work that way. Either flash the image file in fastboot usb or the PH98IMG.ZIP in hboot.

So, first, make sure you have the right file and are using it the correct way.
[HTC Rezound] carycooke:
Sweet thx to both of yall I have not tried yet but what I did was take the image out of the zip and named it recovery.img then put it in the tools folder of SDK with fastboot and adb then used the above command I stated and it actually erased data and cache and then started the setup process again but I'm going to name it ph98img and then run it thru hboot and c that way thx yall really

Update. Named it PH98IMG.ZIP put on root of card hboot says parsing hboot then kicks back to hboot no luck that way so now I'm going to unlock and try that way
[HTC Rezound] hgoldner:
You can't just zip the image file and rename it PH98IMG.ZIP. The zip has to be packaged properly, with an android-info.txt file. If you search this thread you will find both versions, the zip and the image.

Sent into the innertubes from my Arnova 10 G2.
[HTC Rezound] Superm@π:
How the hell do you install this? Frustrating!
[HTC Rezound] pvndpk:
In first page it is mentioned that we require s off for installing anroma ra recovery..can i install this recovery with s on?

will offcial htcdev bootloder unlock puts s-off or s-on?

thanks
[HTC Rezound] Abu-7abash:
Yes you can install this on s-on.
[HTC Rezound] hgoldner:
Seriously? SERIOUSLY? Did you not look at my post right above yours?

1. Flash PH98IMG.ZIP version in hboot OR

2. Flash the image via fastboot usb. (Command is in the OP, yeesh.)

You DO NOT need S-OFF; this was OP's way of explaining that you still couldn't flash kernels and boot images via recovery at the time because S-OFF had not yet been achieved. However, REGARDLESS of whether you are S-ON or S-OFF, you flash a recovery in either hboot or fastboot usb.

Oh, and there IS a search button on every single page, my friend. Every single page.

[HTC Rezound] abrego47:
my flash zip memu has things on ext sd not internal

i think the only way you got a rom and recovery was that you put them on internal because the external needs to be reformatted like we told you previously
[HTC Rezound] Snuzzo:
Could be mismatch radio/hboot combination doing this. I'm on vinylfreaks patched hboot and global radios. I can flash fine from internal.
[HTC Rezound] topgun1953:
After you flashed the RUU everything was okay? If so, then it is likely something when wacky with your flash.

Have you tried reflashing Nils Rom?

Can you read your ext-SD okay?

Can a file manager program on your phone read the int-sd?

Have you tried unmounting/mounting the int-sd (through the phone)

Have you tried the same via recovery?

This might help us diagnose the issue. :good:

[HTC Rezound] DRGilroy:
I'm going to post an issue I ran into that I couldn't find posted anywhere else. I received a refurbished warranty replacement Rezound.

Before swapping my phones, I performed a nandroid using Amon Ra 3.15 and saved it to my external sdcard. After performing an HTC Dev Unlock and flashing the Amon Ra recovery on the replacement phone, I attempted to restore from the nandroid.

I received the "Oops" error. I checked the logs and it said it couldn't read the backup on the external sdcard even though I could browse to it. After reflashing recovery, relocking, reflashing the RUU, unlocking, reflashing recovery, I eventually tried performing a new nandroid on the replacement phone.

I found that the new nandroid was saved into a new directory with a different name (new, HT19******** vs old, HT1A********). So I took the old nandroid image files and replaced the ones in the new directory and voilà!

I was able to successfully restore my old phones nandroid to my replacement phone.

I hope this can help anyone else that runs into this same issue.
[HTC Rezound] a.mcdear:
you shouldn't do this. There is a reason it wouldn't let you restore a backup from your old phone without changing the folder name. You're new rezound is now registered as if it were your old rezound on the network. Should verizon ever revive your old rezound, it will think there are two identical phones with identical IDs on the network and this will lead to problems.
[HTC Rezound] thelunchboxosu:
False.
[HTC Rezound] a.mcdear:
Don't know what to tell you. It happened to me, and I was warned about it by somebody else and disregarded the warning cause I thought that the /system and /data partitions couldn't possibly store any device specific data in them.... but it does apparently.

To see if it happened in your case, go to play.google.com, then settings, and check your devices. My "new" rezound that I got in february wasn't ever registered with Google until May because I had restored a backup from a previous rezound that I sent back. So it looks to Google as if I had the same Rezound from Nov - May, and then got a new one in May, even though my replacement came in February and I no longer had my old phone to use after that time.
[HTC Rezound] DRGilroy:
Please enlighten me as to why restoring the nandroid would cause issues. The phones IMEI numbers which are hard coded on the phones hardware are different. Isn't the IMEI number used to identify it on Verizon's network? Kind of like a MAC address on an Ethernet network.
[HTC Rezound] matthall9815:
He may be referring to the android id which won't matter. I wouldn't worry about it.

I had the same problem with a nandroid today that failed to finish completely. Glad to hear I wasn't the only one.
[HTC Rezound] shrike1978:
I've done that on several different phones, Charge and Rezound, and I've never had a single issue. I have 3 Charges and 3 Rezounds listed, just like I should have.
[HTC Rezound] a.mcdear:
I don't know enough about it to explain how or why. All I can say is that I was warned of the same thing in February after getting my new phone. I figured out how to restore a backup just like you did by renaming the directories on my sdcard. I did that, and when I went to play.google.com, then settings, then devices, it was obvious that Google was mistaking my new Rezound for my old one.

Like I said before, my initial assumption, just like you, was that no device-specific data should be contained in a backup of just the /system, /data, and /boot partitions. Apparently there is somehow.

I was warned, I disregarded the warning, and then later I did some research and discovered that my new device was in fact being mistaken for my old one. I honestly don't care if you fix it or not... but I felt I should pass the info along because I made exactly the same mistake.

Also, why would the recovery purposefully fail to restore the backup just because the directory has a different name? If there wasn't a problem with it, logic would suggest that it would allow you to restore the backup as long as the MD5 checksum is correct..
[HTC Rezound] matthall9815:
Was it possibly a 3g phone with no sim? That would make a difference.
[HTC Rezound] shrike1978:
It gives you a way to transfer multiple device backups to a central location and easily keep them separate. Beyond that, there was even a backup solution for jailbroken iPhones did the same exact thing, and all it backed up was an app list and app data, just like Titanium Backup. No chance of getting any phone specific data in it, and it still used that as an index for the same reason.
[HTC Rezound] a.mcdear:
Alright...I guess I don't know what I'm talking about then. Nevermind and carry on :)
[HTC Rezound] DRGilroy:
Thank you for elaborating on your experience. I appreciate you taking the time to share.

I took a look at the the Play Store and yes, I do have two devices listed now. Funny that my thunderbolt is no longer listed. It's of no consequence for me whether or not the store is synced up with my device as I rely on my own backups to restore my apps.

Thanks again!

Internal storage issue

Is anyone going fix or have more input on the internal storage not working? I see several people, including myself, posting about it and it just seems to be getting ignored.....

Has anyone been able to fix this on there own?
[HTC Rezound] jskolm:
Are you actually on the latest version of this recovery? Have you fully updated your firmware to the ICS firmware from the official release? I understand that like 3 of you are having issues, but there are 100's of us that are using this with no issues at all. There is more than likely an issue with your setup.
[HTC Rezound] vonhinkle:
Im on latest Global ICS firmware. Yes I'm on latest version and also have tried the previous version.

Also I believe that more than 3 ppl are having this issue. Some ppl were posting that they hadn't noticed it wasn't working and noticed after me and.several others posted about it. So basically I bet there are more out there that have the prob and just haven't noticed.
[HTC Rezound] Divine_Madcat:
So, i am hoping someone might be able to help. RIght now, i am on 3.15, with Hboot 2.27, and for the life of me, while i can flash from both internal and ext.... i cannot backup.

I try doing a regular Nand, no secure selected, and i just get

"Oops...something went wrong!

Please check the recovery log"

So, i go and try to move the log to SD, and i get the same error... Not sure whose idea it was to not make the log readable through recovery, but meh. I have reflashed recovery, and everything else seems to work ok. Any ideas folks?
[HTC Rezound] matthall9815:
Did you try flashing a different recovery, then flashing Amon back? If all else fails run the ruu again, and start over. They do a good job of cleaning everything up. At one time we had to flash the stock bootloader before running an ruu because there was a chance the altered ones would brick the phone. I'm not sure if that's the case or not.

---------- Post added at 08:45 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:35 AM ----------

To those of you having problems with the sd card. What bootloader are you using? I don't mean which version, but what file did you download. Is it possible one of these has had an alteration that is causing the problem?
[HTC Rezound] CharliesTheMan:
I'm having hell with the internal SD card. I thought it would be an easy fix, and never really used it so didn't need it, but decided to fox it yesterday in my spare time. But I've tried so many fixes and formats. I'm on the official ICS OTA, amon 3.15 and I tried before doing s off, with stock unlocked hboot, and custom unlocked hboots.

I thought on my rezound I just needed to run the RUU again, but I got another rezound yesterday and ran the official OTA RUU completely twice and that didn't get it. I've wiped and formatted it in recovery, the only thing left I haven't tried is the factory reset from the bootloader screen to wipe everything.

I'll update when I finally get it fixed and let you guys know if I found a solution.
[HTC Rezound] matthall9815:
Are you on the touch screen version of amon ra 3.15? I had a problem a while back, and this is what fixed it. It's the same version 3.15 but has a couple differences.

Just so you all know. The new version of clockwork mod in the dev section does not have this issue. Been using it about a week now and flashed sense, aokp and cm roms with no issues at all. If no one is gonna fix this legitimate issue then screw amon ra....
[HTC Rezound] cpurick:
I got a new Rezound due to hardware problems. So I did a backup of my old phone, unlocked my new one and installed AmonRa 3.15. Then I moved the old internal files to the new phone using USB, and included the old SD card in the new phone. The new phone has the same system on it as the old one. I'm hoping to restore the backup, from the old phone onto the new one, in order to complete my migration to the new device.

When I select Nandroid Restore it runs for a moment and then tells me "Oops something went wrong." Detail in the log says "backups not found." The files from the backup appear to be on the card.

Any ideas? Why can't Amon Ra find the backups?
[HTC Rezound] dachef3184:
Is the back up on the ext sd/nandroid folder?
[HTC Rezound] michaelbsheldon:
.

In the nandroid folder, you'll see the device serial #, beginning with "H".

Change that folder name to the "H" serial number of your new phone, and the

previous nandroid will restore fine.
[HTC Rezound] DRGilroy:
Two pages back^
[HTC Rezound] cpurick:
Thanks guys -- sounds exactly like what I'm looking for!

Okay, I ended up doing a backup first, because the number being used for the directory on this "refurbished" phone does NOT match the hardware serial number as it did on the original phone. The number is completely different from the printed serial number on the sticker, as a matter of fact. Once I identified the serial number the software is using, I was able to begin a restore.

There is an install superuser option in the advanced menu of Amon-Ra that does not work. It doesn't cause any issues and you can still root just fine by flashing Superuser or SuperSU (or a rooted ROM), but the menu option specifically to install superuser doesn't work.
