Open the rom .zip file and pull the boot.img from it
[HTC Rezound] clarinetboy:
wow so extracting the boot.img is really as simple as it sounds... lol

ok, heres's the readout from cmd.exe:

c:\rez>fastboot flash boot boot.img

sending 'boot' (3798 KB)...

OKAY [ 0.805s]

writing 'boot'...

OKAY [ 1.701s]

finished. total time: 2.508s

Ok, did that do it? do i just reboot now?

---------- Post added at 06:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:52 PM ----------

Ok yay i think it worked. So if i want to s-off my phone for future flashing ease, can i do the wire trick, etc. w/ my rom right now, or do i have to return to stock, then s-off?
[HTC Rezound] apophis9283:
I would return to stock
[HTC Rezound] clarinetboy:
Ok, so the cyanogen mod screen was spinning, i was setting up my phone, and then everything crashes, and I am only able to access the first few setup screens, and the pulldown menu (date/time/connectivity options) and there was no home screen. everything crashed at that point.I rebooted again, and the phone is stuck on cyanogenMOD loading screen. How do i return to stock? is it w/ a RUU? i managed to figure out how to use my recovery to connect my micro-sd card to my computer, can i download some zips and flash via amronRA recovery?

i was so close to having a working phone....
[HTC Rezound] Neo:
This is most likely due to not having a clean flash. While in recovery, did you factory reset, wipe data, cache, dalvik, and system before flashing the rom?
[HTC Rezound] clarinetboy:
No i did not. Can I go back to recovery, factory reset, wipe data, cache, dalvik, and system, then flash the rage rom zip, then hboot flash the boot.img? Basically, how do i get my phone to a usable state lol

Also, is the fact that i flashed both a ROM an kernel consecutively an issue?
[HTC Rezound] Neo:
The process of operation you just listed with cleaning and flashing is correct

Does anyone have the gsm patch? Im running my rez, until i get my dna back from repair. Ive only been successful with data, calls, and texts on 2 roms! Ive tried every sense rom out, sense 3.6/4.0 one xxx, and maeister are the only 2 roms that have data, text, and calls. The others i get calls, and texts, but no data. Im in global mode, and i enter correct apn, but no luck. Btw, im using my straight talk sim card.

[HTC Rezound] chrisosaur:
finally have some answers

well, the screen problems i've had are getting worse. i hope it's not a hardware issue, which i doubt because it's never been dropped or mistreated, but it could happen i suppose. back about 2 weeks before the ICS OTA dropped i flashed an ruu. it was version 3.14.605.10 with sense 3.6. i found a newer version (3.14.605.12), i was wondering if i can just flash this ruu like i did the first. i also had a question about rooting and all that fun stuff. i'm somewhat interested in doing what i have to do to get free tethering (root, unlock, soff, idk...), but i don't want to lose data, call ability, or text messaging. i also think the newer sense or even the JB roms would be interesting to mess around with. i understand the walkthroughs and faq's pretty well, they aren't too intimidating and i've had some experience in the past tampering with jailbroken and unlocked iphones. my main concern is adding something or doing something to my phone that would make it inoperable even if not completely. i don't know exactly what i'd do once i rooted or went soff, but i'm sure i'd find some fun uses, i'm just not sure if the juice is worth the squeeze. i don't want to have to set up my phone over and over as i have a bit of an OCD problem and it can take quite a while. any advice on either of my concerns would be greatly appreciated.

Hi all, i've just got a Rezound today, but it not turning on. It not even get to bootloader. When i plugged in it has orange led for a 3-4 seconds, than it starts blink green and orange led, when i pull out a battery and plug it in, it's start glow with the orange led, any idea? Thanks!

Also it not shows in adb
[HTC Rezound] shrike1978:
My first thought would be a bad battery. The flashing green/orange pattern usually indicates that the phone has stopped charging due to overheating. If it's doing it when it's not overheating, it may indicate some other battery problem.
[HTC Rezound] jsergan:
I tried to put in my buttery from Amaze and Rezound boots up, but battery indicator shows "!" and it continue to blincking green and orange. So can i do smthg with it? Thanks!
[HTC Rezound] zounduser:
Ya, try pulling the battery and sd card. Then plug it in to the outlet and power up, it should boot straight to the bootloader. Let it sit for about 30 secs like that, next put in the sd card, and battery, power on. Should b ok from there. :D

[HTC Rezound] hinds73:
Hey guys/gals. :) Been a long time since I have been on, but slowly getting back in the swing of things. Here is my problem/s that I hope someone can help me out with? First, I am running linux systems. I am definitely a noob at linux.

I want to get the bootloader unlocked, rooted and rom installed. For the life of me though I cannot get the bootloader unlocked. I have read I don't know how many pages here and elsewhere trying to get this simple task accomplished. I have downloaded adt (android development tools) for linux, and have tried following various tutorials. Am I really that dumb when it comes to this???
[HTC Rezound] Neo:
Join a free membership to htcdev.com

They have a pretty simple method of unlocking the bootloader for you :)

After unlocking install Amon Ra 3.15 recovery and run the dev option for su and busybox install.
[HTC Rezound] hinds73:
Hey Neo, thanks for responding. :) I did join htcdev.com. That is where I started. I think if I was on windows I wouldn't be having any issue with this. I think it is because they are talking windows right along side with linux that is throwing me off I guess. I'll try running through it again. It is when I get to putting the phone in fastboot and hooking it to the pc it is not being recognized in the sdk manager. I wait for the 3 minutes or more like 20, but nothing happens.
[HTC Rezound] Neo:
No problem.

Do you have adb installed and the proper HTC drivers?
[HTC Rezound] shrike1978:
Make sure you're running as root. Otherwise, you won't be able to access the USB device.

There is a way to make it work as an unprivileged user. I'll find it and post it, but for now, just make sure you're running as root.

EDIT: Here's instructions on how to set up the udev permissions so you don't need root: http://rootzwiki.com/topic/258-udev-rules-for-any-device-no-more-starting-adb-with-sudo/

What is my best rom upgrade option and path

Since April 2012 I have been running CleanRom 4.3 (Android 4.0.3 Sense 3.6).

It has worked great except I would love better battery and radio performance or even JB .

I love ICS and being rooted mainly for the WiFi Tether. I am unlocked and S-on. I think I am

still on GB firmware (don't know how to check ) .

What is my best upgrade path.... what is the best rom.... will it be an improvement...

Where do I find it...any links to instructions.... I don't want to loose root or brick.....

have not messed around with this stuff since I got the phone in April and

How to restore nandroid backup ....

My Rezound is Locked, ENG-OFF ..... it's been a good 8 months at least since I've been in this forum .... I loaded an app (spotify) onto Nils ICEBusinessSense 1.6 and my phone locks up at the white HTC screen. I need my phone back quickly and I feel like a noob again.... can't remember a damn thing....

I have a good full nandroid backup, and holding the volume down while pressing power, I can get into HBOOT, but the phone won't go into recovery. Can someone remind me how I can restore my phone from a Nandroid backup?

Thanks

I would read through this first:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1641670

Then if you go to the Development section there are guides for how to do what you need to do. In a nutshell, you need to:

- Unlock bootloader using the HTCDev unlock code you get from their site.

- Flash a custom recovery, Amon Ra is the most popular I think, or TWRP

- Do a nandroid (basically an image backup) of your phone at this point, where you are stock, so you can easily revert back if needed. I append the name of my nands so I know what they are, so I just add "_stock" to the end

- Flash a custom ROM. I usually make a nand now too.

- Install apps and set up all your preferences.

You'll need to set up to use fastboot on your pc. I've attached what you need, just put it in a folder on the root of your pc drive, I name mine android-flasher and so it's at c:\android-flasher, easy to find when I need it.

When you get your unlock code from HTCDev, put it in this folder. You can just leave it in there in case you need it again later.

That should get you started. I was new to android and smartphones when I got the Rezzy in Nov. 2011 and I would suggest that you read a lot of posts in here to get familiar. I even took notes so I have my own little reference with all kinds of info in it, commands that you always end up needing but forget the exact syntax, etc...

You'll see talk of s-off, but I wouldn't recommend that until you are more familiar with everything. It makes flashing a ROM easier but also makes it easier to brick your phone. And it involves shorting out something on your phone using wire and there have been some who have bricked/broken phone doing it.

Good luck!

minor quirks

Hi.

I am S-off and most recently on the latest global RUU and have Nils Business sense 4.0 installed. I have two minor issues, one that has been recurring since I bought the phone and the second I have noticed since I first rooted and ran Viperez (another 4.0 sense Rom.)

Issue 1 (had all along) : phone doesn't retain some of the defaults after rebooting. (thought it was worth mentioning before moving on to the second minor issue.)

Issue 2 : After I reboot the phone, a good portion of the time the external SD card is doesn't mount and I have to manually mount it from settings.I only notice only with Sense 4.0 Roms....while on Rez Rom with GB patch and now with latest global RUU with a Sense 4.0 Rom. I didn't notice this issue with a ASOP Rom (Infection... Which is coming along very impressively BTW!)

Anyone have any insight or have similar issues? Its not a big deal but if anyone knows a fix or the reason it happens, I would like to know :)

Thanks!

---------- Post added at 02:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:27 PM ----------

After installing the global RUU, I had some difficulty before managing to write a new recovery.... I am S-off.

The real issue is with the relocked Hboot. For next time (if there is one) what is the very simplest way to flash a unlocked hboot. I ended up reusing my unlock token to with ADB from the first time I used the HTC unlocker, which actually did work! (Not sure it was very smart for me to try it, but was pretty exhausted and frustrated.... It did work though!)

So, what are the exact instructions for flashing an new Hboot in Bootloader, for S-off after a fresh RUU flash.... Sorry if this is a stupid question. I have done a bunch of reading but my brain freezes up on tech stuff after a while!

Thanks
[HTC Rezound] Neo:
Not a stupid question at all. There are no stupid questions anyway :p

You can flash it using the PH98IMG method and rebooting to bootloader to flash.

2-20-2013 OTA messed me up

I awoke this morning to find my phone in recovery mode indicating that an update failed (I did not try to update the phone, it did it all on its own). Checked, and saw that there was some sort of OTA released recently. I am rooted (not sure about s-off and all that) and running stock rom. I therefore just rebooted.

Thought I would try to install the OTA, so went to make a titanium backup, and it told me I had lost root. That surprised me.

Found supersu application on phone, and ran the "reinstall" option, rebooted, and re-ran Titanium. It now has root again, but Titanium told me I need to re-enable USB debugging. I never unchecked it. This OTA is messing with me badly.

I would like to download and install the OTA. How can I do that. I plan on using Voodoo OTA rootkeeper to try and maintain my root status, and I am in the midst of a titanium backup of apps and data. But, I have a feeling I am going to end up in recovery mode, unable to install the update. Any ideas?

Thanks,

Michael

Some Assistance please ..

I would like to install one of the jelly bean clockwork roms. I see in the install notes I have to first upgrade to the latest firmware and radios.

Phone stats now:

Build # 3.14.605.12 Radios 1.22.10.0421r, 1.22.10.0424r

The phone is rooted S-OFF and running OTA ICS Plus v1.1. 3.14.605.12710rd

How would I go about getting the radio and firmware updated?
[HTC Rezound] feralicious:
You can run the global RUU found here, if you are needing to be on global:

http://www.androidpolice.com/2012/0...ull-ruu-build-4-03-605-2-for-the-htc-rezound/

You'll then need to flash a custom recovery again afterwards.

This will wipe your phone and put it to stock so make sure you back anything up first and I would make a nand as well just in case.
[HTC Rezound] mandophish:
thakns!

Will running the RUU remove S-OFF and root?
[HTC Rezound] feralicious:
s-off no, root yes. But you can easily get it back, just unlock and flash Amon Ra and go into the developer menu and root.

[HTC Rezound] Sheldor1967:
She is updated, but what then? Will her phone connect to a GSM network? Does she need to get a sim card when she gets there? Verizon was, predictably, not helpful at all, "It won't work on that network" Morons.
[HTC Rezound] feralicious:
I think she should have GSM or Global as an option in the settings as long as she's on a global ROM. I saw "global" somewhere after I ran the RUU but I'm not on a global ROM so I don't see it now. Then yeah, as far as I know she would then by a prepaid sim card where ever she is and it should work.

I know there were a few threads talking about getting the Rez to work globally, you might find some info in them. Would be in either the General or Q&A sections, prob both.

Hey guys my screen went out yesterday. I took it to Verizon and I am getting refurbished rezound under the total protection plan.

I am rooted...unlocked....custom boot loader...and Rom...c

Do I need to try to relock and factory reset every thing?

Since the screen went out due to bad hardware...does me having custom Rom and software screw me when they put a new screen in the old phone?
[HTC Rezound] GrayBoltWolf:
Every user that I have seen that has done the replacement service has never had problems with unlocking the device or custom ROMs.

As far as we know, Verizon doesn't check and I am sure the company that refurbishes them just does like a reimage or something.

flashing vanillaROM/Infection/Tron-2.0 doesn't get past htc screen

The longest time I waited for my rezound to get past the initial white htc screen after flashing these roms was 2 hours. Maybe the instructions I followed weren't correct. Please help me...

I've read on Infection and Tron-2.0's threads that "If this is your first time coming to an AOSP Rom and you are S-ON, you will need to extract the boot.img and flash it in hboot after the rom flash." I have no idea what this means, though I have googled at least boot.img and got some results I don't quite understand. Could anyone clarify for me what S-ON and boot.img and hboot are in this context?

I'll try to be as specific as I can about my situation. I have successfully flashed and used both the ClockwordMod and Amon RA recovery interfaces. I have also tried to flash only vanillaROM on ClockworkMod, and all three of these ROMs on Amon RA. As I couldn't find any instructions for people new to flashing ROMs on the OPs of these ROM's threads (I minimally sifted through each of these thread's pages to search for specific instructions), I resorted to reading the stickied "FAQs" thread on the Rezound troubleshooting page which states general instructions. I've also google searched and looked at instructions for external SD ROM flashing in some wiki's and other sites, which pretty much say the same thing as the XDA FAQ's instructions.

Anyways, my point is, I've wiped all data/factory reset, data, cache, and dalvik-cache, and then flashed each ROM at least two times, but I can never get past the initial white htc screen. My current carrier is AT&T, so I have the GSM version of VanillaROM and the GSM patches for Infection and Tron-2.0.

Also, I bought my htc rezound off of craigslist late last year, and only decided to update its operating system to a newer version of Android because my phone's current OS has bugs that I don't want to deal with. My rezound was already rooted and flashed to a gsm version of ICS by its original owner when I bought it from him. I am still running the ICS that my rezound came with when I bought it.

I am very very eager to try out jelly bean on my rezound. Is it possible to get jelly bean on my htc rezound? If so, I would greatly appreciate easy-to-follow instructions on how to get jelly bean working on my rezound. Thanks in advance.
