That would be correct as I stated before I am S-Off and locked. I'm going to take a break here and eat something. Sitting here for hours, I have yet to eat or do anything else and i'm getting tired. I will rename the file and start the process when i return. Thanks for all your help.

I emailed the company that i'm not pleased about having to redo the phone and told them I want a refund and linked this fourm over to explain everything that you told me in detail.

Yes I'm S-Off ....and locked bootloader.
[HTC Rezound] pball52998:
'

lol.... Well right now I'm Unlocked bootloader and s-on. I do have somewhat access to a windows computer now. BUT! What scares me about going s-off is if Rumrunner has viruses. I mean your turning off all anti-virus and your firewall. It just scares me because I know .bat files can carry viruses like crazy. And no one has still helped me with the adb emulator thing on my windows side mac.... I've waited.... But no help... I'd like to get that stupid emulator to go away so I could do all my android stuff on the windows side with no problem. But I'm stuck.... Please help with either emulator.. Or if the Rumrunner contains viruses, Sorry for off-topic discussion. But its a legit question that I would like answered.....
[HTC Rezound] Droid9684:
I flashed it and it got stuck on Evervol for the longest time and didnt have an option to boot into recovery. I restarted my phone and it's on the Evervol boot screen....
[HTC Rezound] mjones73:
I think if the rumrunner script was packaged with a virus, it would be pasted all over this forum not to touch it...

Regardless, you don't need to be s-off to flash a recovery using the PH98IMG.zip method. You don't even need a PC, you just need to get the file on the root of your SD Card. Do remove it when you're done in case you run into an issue where you need to get back to the bootloader.
[HTC Rezound] Droid9684:
... stuck on Evervol screen now and over heating! Great....
[HTC Rezound] mjones73:
Either via fastboot or the PH98IMG.zip method via the bootloader.
[HTC Rezound] acejavelin:
Hmmm... so after flashing ROM and Gapps the reboot into recovery is missing? You press Reboot and the Reboot menu doesn't come up?

I honestly don't get it... I have flashed literally dozens of roms and different versions on several Rezound handsets, I have never had these kind of weird issues that I couldn't figure out with patience and assistance.
[HTC Rezound] Droid9684:
Well now my Rezound is once again BRICKED!!! I'm done. I'm not sure what happend but after I flashed the TWRP it said to reboot as the only option. I did and now it doesn't work anymore. I think i've had enough fun with this. Now I have no phone again.
[HTC Rezound] acejavelin:
WTF?!?! Pull the battery...

Get this script: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=38808921 either one, I use the 5x one.

Flash the Clean wipe script

Flash the ROM

Boot, and verify phone operation (don't set anything up or config anything other than what is required to boot)

Wait 5 minutes

reboot into recovery and flash Gapps and reboot

give it at least 5 minutes after the lock screen comes up, then complete setup, then give it another 5 minutes of doing nothing.

Seriously, I don't know why this is being such a pain in the a$$... it doesn't make sense...
[HTC Rezound] mjones73:
Personally I'd start over, something probably didn't flash right.

You already have Evervolv downloaded, I'd also go with banks gapps and Scott's clean script.

Grab the needed files here - http://goo.im/devs/BaNkS/GApps/4.4.2 (1-16_GApps_Standard_4.4.2_signed.zip & 1-16_AOSP_Calendar_Sync_4.4.2_signed.zip)

and here - https://www.dropbox.com/s/nas5aap2mcigwfh/CleanWIPE_1.0_-_Rezoundv2.zip

Place everything together on your External SD card.

Boot to recovery, select Install, find the CleanWipe script

Add more zips - find Evervolv

Add more zips - find GApps Standard

Add more zips - find Calendar Sync

Swipe to Confirm Flash

When complete, select the option to wipe Dalvik Cache

Reboot and wait for it to finish.

It's literally impossible to brick this phone installing roms. Pull the battery, put it back in, power the phone back on while holding volume down, select Recovery from the bootloader menu. If by chance the PH98IMG.zip is still on the SD Card, you need to use a card reader to get it off first.
[HTC Rezound] Droid9684:
Do I need to install all files within the link or just the ones in quote?
[HTC Rezound] mjones73:
Just the ones I listed I needed, the rest are optional. The calendar patch fixes the calendar not wanting to sync with google.

md5 doesn't match

I've downloaded gapps-kk-20131031.zip from post #1 three times but the md5 check comes up as 2574C09191C29A47224223ACFB24D7B8 each time instead of 2F4353601E9BF50545091A9525C31B03.
[HTC Rezound] acejavelin:
I use the Banks Gapps but downloaded and tried it. I am getting the same results with the 2574c09191c29a47224223acfb24d7b8 MD5 digest. ZIP file test is OK too, think they might have updated it and [MENTION=2658396]kkozma[/MENTION] didn't update the MD5, maybe?
[HTC Rezound] Droid9684:
It failed because it says I have no OS. But I included the new ROM build!
[HTC Rezound] mjones73:
It can't read your internal SD, try formatting it in the Wipe section. The wipe script worked, it failed trying to flash the rom.

If need be, after wiping, you can mount USB storage in the mount section and put the files back on your phone.
[HTC Rezound] Droid9684:
The files are on my ext sd card.

---------- Post added at 02:38 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:26 AM ----------

Re-formated internal sd and wiped cache and davik still wont work... see attached photo.

https://www.dropbox.com/s/mi4mfiyv3lvprxz/DSC_4651.jpg
[HTC Rezound] mjones73:
Still try wiping Internal, if you have the issue again, re-download, check the MD5SUM and re-copy the rom to your SD Card. It can see the card, it's not liking something about the zip you downloaded.

Edit - If you're still getting emmc errors, your Internal SD is still hosed up. Did you get any errors when trying to wipe it?
[HTC Rezound] Droid9684:
errors on wiping the internal sd. But as I stated the files on my external sd where they should be. I learned from my previous experience when I bricked my phone in the first place to put files on EXT NOT internal. Besides I'm not able to even access the internal card. idea how to check the MD5SUM, what program uses that? I am talking to the person that Jtagged my device and I'm considering his offer of sending it back out to get corrected proper to begin with at no cost. This is rather a huge mess that i'm starting to get frusterated with and have been sitting here almost straight for nearly 7 hours trying to fix. I'm not mad at anyone here, I'm mad rather with this situation is all.

---------- Post added at 03:02 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:52 AM ----------

I'm being instructed that it's always best to have installed a stock ROM rather then a beta version of custom rom that's not stable. But i've explained to the person that worked on my devices many of you which here on XDA have not had too many problems with this version of Kit Kat. I really don't know if I should continue doing this here or have him work out the issues and ship the phone back out again. ants to install stock ICS, then if I wish I could just flash over to another rom. But I'm not sure what I want to do here. I really like the feel of this new OS the little I have gotten to use it today and I really don;t want to be on ICS personally.

No M5Checksum found when it was reading the sd card.
[HTC Rezound] mjones73:
One last thing to try since your phone is now s-off. Download this - http://d-h.st/zyG

Place is on your SD Card, rename it PH98IMG.zip and flash it in the bootloader, it will take some time and a couple of reboots and wipe the phone back to stock. This usually does the trick when I totally kill my internal storage.

Afterwards flash this the same way to get to the most current firmware - http://d-h.st/gnA

Then you can re-flash your recovery like you did before and proceed with the normal rom install process.

As for the file, apple OS has a built in checker since it's running on top of some form of Unix.

http://osxdaily.com/2009/10/13/check-md5-hash-on-your-mac/

As for this - No M5Checksum found when it was reading the sd card.

You can download the corresponding MD5.txt if it's posted and the recovery will check it for you, it's throwing that message because there's no text file. Not a big deal if you check it beforehand.

You can thank REV3NT3CH for hosting the files.
[HTC Rezound] scottww2622:
Thanks. I ended up using the other ga file just to test. My google account is downloading and restoring my files now. I'll play around with it for a couple days before I reactivate my phone. Using a crappy Moto Droid now and it is so slow I can't stand it. I've tried several roms for the rezound and haven't found one that doesn't have some issue. Tachyon is my fave so far but google maps and the map on my weather app is screwy and keeps jumping around. Hope this one works well.
[HTC Rezound] Droid9684:
How do I find M5 txt files for what's i'm downloading? Currently downloading the files as you listed and [MENTION=5037435]REV3NT3CH[/MENTION] thank you for providing them! Much appreciated! And I'm not coming from stock, just a bricked phone. So I flash my TWRP recovery then flash again the Kit Kat ROM with Gapps?

---------- Post added at 04:00 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:38 AM ----------

The 1st PH98IMG.zip file stopped downloading at 582/616MB and the link wont work anymore and won't download. Is there another way I can try to re-download it? I have wifi connection still using both chrome and firefox. Thanks.
[HTC Rezound] REV3NT3CH:
Here's the folder where the files are http://d-h.st/users/REV3NT3CH/?fld_id=27380#files the md5s are in there bud
[HTC Rezound] Droid9684:
I cancelled the download and was able to restarted it.

---------- Post added at 04:04 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:02 AM ----------

Awesome! Thank you very much, now the other question is do I need to download the txt file from these or leave them?
[HTC Rezound] REV3NT3CH:
if you look on the download link of the this 1st and this 2nd ph98img.zip itself it shows the md5 sum in the little box there...the md5 text files that are in there contain the same numbers as those...so you dont really need em...just as a just in case
[HTC Rezound] Droid9684:
Ok i successfuly returned to stock ICS. Now before i continue do I need to update any radios or anything before i consider trying the kit kat rom again? Will I have global capabilities?
[HTC Rezound] mjones73:
You should have them now, I'd still flash that second file to get everything current. It's a small zip, doesn't wipe anything and only takes a couple mins.
[HTC Rezound] Droid9684:
This is a stupid question rather but....how do I re-root my Rezound? I lost root. Yes i'm on stock ICS now and it looks like the version is global correct? This will carry over to the kit kat rom once rooted? How do i root on mac? It's been a long time.
[HTC Rezound] mjones73:
Install an already rooted rom and you're good to go. If you want to stay stock ICS, then you'd need to root the current OS install, since you're gonna trash it for KK, just install your rom.
[HTC Rezound] Droid9684:
Ok do I rename my recovery leave the PH98IMG before flashing it? I will flash kit kat followed by gapps afterwards.
[HTC Rezound] mjones73:
Yes you need the recovery zip named PH98IMG.zip also, flash it via the bootloader just like the others.

Make sure you flash the wipe script first, Evervolv then gapps. Clear dalvik cache before booting.
[HTC Rezound] Droid9684:
I flashed it successfully. Then i went into recovery to flash all the others and I got the same result as before...no MD5checksum. I think i'm supposed to rename them all and flash individually correct?

---------- Post added at 05:39 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:37 AM ----------

I did not flash wipe scrpt before the recovery. I'll have to redo that I guess.

---------- Post added at 05:50 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:39 AM ----------

The ROM wont flash. Using TWRP.
[HTC Rezound] acejavelin:
If you didnt download the md5sum file for each zip you will get this info message, it is not an error, just letting you know there is no md5 digest file to match with. It is nothing to worry about and is completely normal.
[HTC Rezound] Droid9684:
There is no check sum for the kit kat rom just the zip file. But maybe it's just be because i been sitting here for 12 hours working on this and maybe i'm tired.

---------- Post added at 05:59 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:57 AM ----------

I renamed the KK rom to PH98IMG and hoboot didnt read it proper. Then I went into TWRP recovery and tried that way and because there's no m5checksum it didnt work. Maybe i'm not flashing it right or something i dont know.
[HTC Rezound] acejavelin:
Its ok... I never use them even when available. I was just pointing out its not an error, just an informational message. It isn't an indication of anything being wrong.
[HTC Rezound] Droid9684:
Ok well....how do i flash the kit kat then? The Jtag service was able to do it.

Alright after nearly 12 hours of work I'm back up and running on the Kit Kat rom. Everything is working as it should so far. I do not have an sd card errors when I go to use the camera, screenshot or anything of that sort. I did not have to make a separate folder on sd card for the screen shots. I have to reinstall my previous apps still but i'm really tired. I want to thank all of you so much for helping me out. Getting me to stock rom ICS and to the proper recovery software. The OP for the kit kat rom [MENTION=2658396]kkozma[/MENTION] failed to provide the correct recovery to be installed with this rom. Josh from MobileTechVideos the Jtag service did everything correctly, so there is no fault on his behalf. Now I can get some well needed rest and enjoy my phone later on. :) This was such a learning experience for me and brought back some reminders on how to work with droid as it's been quite some time. Thanks for putting up with my lack of patience and non expertise. Cheers everyone and thanks again! :) :good:

[HTC Rezound] Droid9684:
Update

I installed most of my old apps but i'm still having some issues. The camera keeps force stopping immediately. I can't install some apps from the play store "Unknown error code during application instal: "-24". I researched the issue and found many others have has the same problem however I have not been able to get rid of the error. I've cleared google play cache and removed and re-input my google account. There is other apps such as LBE Privacy Guard (control app permissions granted) no longer functions. Now i'm going to get some rest hopefully and try to sleep. Hoping someone has an answer to these persistant issues.
[HTC Rezound] Droid9684:
And the google calander does not sync even after flashing the zip for it along with google camera zip.
[HTC Rezound] el Filou:
Just tested this and wanted to confirm that GSM support is flawless! :victory:
[HTC Rezound] kkozma:
Wow, lots of problems!!! Thanks for those of you who have stepped in to help everyone out!

Someone posted above an issue with the MD5's on the gapps. I'll re-verfiy and update if necessary.

Other than the folks having issues, how is the latest version running for everyone? I'm still struggling with random notification bar freezes on my test build. Seems that it happens most when I have *this* website open and get a an unread notification. Pull the bar down, freezes. Logcat isn't really helpful so I'm kinda stuck. :(
[HTC Rezound] kkozma:
Ok, not sure what happened but 2574c09191c29a47224223acfb24d7b8 is the correct md5. I will update the OP. Sorry for the confusion.
[HTC Rezound] rgnicholas:
kkozma... I think what happened with the md5 is that when people copy and paste it from the thread, it grabs an extra "space" at the beginning of the hash... then when you paste it into your checker, this space throws off the match. I tried it and deleted the extra space and things matched then. Hope this helps folks who are wondering about it.
[HTC Rezound] acejavelin:
Why are you trying to replace the stock apps??? The camera app is the most difficult thing for devs to get working on the Rezound, if you are trying another camera, or some root camera mods, you are probably breaking the camera yourself.

The embedded calendar syncs fine with Google, in fact I prefer it an use it everyday, it syncs with Exchange as well with no issues.

EDIT: Correction, you do have to flash the Google Calendar zip as [MENTION=2479397]mjones73[/MENTION] recommended to get calendar sync, but I stand by what I said about the camera... Our camera is a hybrid PMEM build that works in an ION environment, I do not recommend replacing it.

If the phone worked fine, then you add/restore apps, and the phone fails... the question as to the cause kind of answers itself.
[HTC Rezound] mjones73:
I recommended the calendar zip only because I was having issues getting mine to sync with Google, if it's working now, it can be excluded. :)
[HTC Rezound] acejavelin:
Actually, I retract my earlier statement... Google Calendar sync is not supported in the stock ROM's calendar with Banks Gapps, there isn't even a sync option for Calendar in the Google account. I was sure it had worked before... I thought it did...
[HTC Rezound] mjones73:
No problem. :)
[HTC Rezound] pball52998:
Can he unlock his bootloader again? I know thats a stupid question, but could he ever unlock it again? So he would be able to ever do it and just be unlocked and s-off?
[HTC Rezound] acejavelin:
Of course... I have unlocked, relocked, and unlocked again several times. The only thing needed is the unlock token file, you don't have to go through the HTCdev site again unless you lost the token file.
[HTC Rezound] pball52998:
Then I would suggest droid unlocking the device.... Make life a lot easier.....
[HTC Rezound] Droid9684:
Alright so after a long night and day I got the phone working for the most part. The calendar since issues no longer are persistent and it syncs fine. I actually use Business Calendar rather than the stock as a personal preference.

The Play Store error code 24 is fixed after going into data/data folder and deleting the app that wouldn't install from Play Store.

As far as the camera goes it works except when you try to shoot in panorama mode. It seems like a bug to me. Video recording capabilites work fine. I went ahead and just deleted LBE privacy manager since it no longer works.

My only other question is currently i'm using the built in wifi hotspot tethering. I do not have a tethering hotspot plan so will this affect my bill on Verizon? I do not think it will but I just want to make sure since i'm on unlimited data plan. I think this is great over the app WiFi Tether and setting it up as Ad-Hoc and not being able to secure the network infrastructure. Also how am I able to print from my phone without it being on WiFi network since i tether my data connection? Currently i reinstalled PrintHand to print files wireless to Brother cloud printer. But if i'm able to use the built in print abilities in Kit Kat then that's one less app I need. :laugh::good:

And can I head over to HTC Dev and unlock my device again on Mac? Yes I lost the token. Thanks!

[HTC Rezound] acejavelin:
FYI... I tried just installing the Google Calendar from the Play Store, that works too... Then both calendars (AOSP and Google) sync to both accounts (Exchange and Google), no real need to flash it unless you want to over-write what is in the ROM instead of having two calendar apps.
[HTC Rezound] Droid9684:
I'm not having this issue at all in regards to the notification bar. However the ROM does lag once in awhile but otherwise is almost 100% working. The Camera when in panorama mode tho needs to be fixed as it force closes. Also an odd thing about Kit Kat is as others have reported when I go to restore my SMS using SMS Backup+ they restore successfully but are hidden. I've tried using 2rd party apps to see if it helps address the issue but it doesn't. This is a known problem with the official kit kat ROM on other devices. Call logs can be restored with no problem but only viewed using non stock Phone / Contacts app. I use DW Contacts Pro as I like to customise the look. :) Oh and Apps Ops is no longer available for 4.4.2.

[HTC Rezound] acejavelin:
Ahh... the wireless tether thing... It should not affect your bill under light use, BUT Verizon is able to see you are tethering if they chose too and could add tethering automatically or suspend your account. Now, that being said, I have not known that to happen unless someone is abusing unlimited data doing this or doing "questionable" things with it. If you are going to use it like a modem for your laptop once in a while to access the internet it's probably going to go unnoticed. If you are watching Youtube for hours, downloading torrents, or using it with your XBox to play Halo online, then who knows.

Why not just use Google Cloud Print services, it should work anytime as long as you have a internet connection, WiFi or not, and it is build into the ROM and is part of KitKat? In all honesty I have not done this, but it should work.

Just use the embedded camera, not the Google one, it works fine... Seriously, who cares about Panaramic mode... it's a phone, use it to take funny pictures of your cat and stupid road side signs like everyone else. :)
[HTC Rezound] Droid9684:
Well I was using WiFi tether and some months my data usage got to 100GB. Verizon has never said anything to me about my usage or billed me extra. I'm glad I have unlimited data lets just say :good::D. So my thoughts is that this option is similar to the 3rd party app I had installed. I just want to make sure it's not something verizon put in?

I had Google Print app installed on phone previously. I do not see it as an option coming with Kit Kat built in.
[HTC Rezound] acejavelin:
Verizon has NOTHING in this app, or anything else in the ROM... no worries there. If you get away with it, more power to you I guess, but it is a violation of terms of service for unlimited data and it still

COULD

cause your service to be discontinued, suspended, or fees to increase. I honestly expect VZW to start actively going after stuff like this in the near future, they hate unlimited data. But hey, use it well you can I guess!

As far as the printing goes, the core printing services are built into KitKat, you still need to install Google Cloud Printing app... my point was this works with WiFi or Mobile Data... What I had gleaned from your previous post was that the app you were using required a WiFi connection.
