Yes You can try reinstalling stock rom. Or you can do a factory reset. All the best

hi everyone !

I'm a noob here, at XDA

I'm in a trouble, please help me to get out of this =(

but before posting my real problem (may be I will resolve it my self after getting the answer), I want to know:

how can I select the correct ROM for my HTC Amaze 4G ?

actually my phone has no firmware right now, I wipe / format all, accidentally without any backup.

now I have no idea about ROM. There are many:

http://xdaforums.com/wiki/HTC_Amaze_4G/ROMs
[HTC Amaze 4G] Odysseus1962:
The Wiki article is a good place to start, however, it isn't up to date. Select any of the stock ICS based ROMs if you want full functionality as these are the only ROMs where everything works correctly. There are many ICS ROMs both themed and stock Sense available. If you can live without WiFi tethering and some Bluetooth functionality there are several JB based AOSP based ROMs that are otherwise stable and work well. So far all of the KitKat builds have camera exposure issues in addition to the same problems as the JB ROMs. They are more in flux and under heavy development.

It's against the rules of the board to recommend a specific ROM, so you'll have to try for yourself to see what fits your needs and tastes.

However before proceeding you should look over the various threads that are pinned to the top of the different forums. There you will find tons of useful information that will save you trouble later. Remember that if you're coming from any ROM before ICS that you need to first flash a stock ICS factory image so you can install the proper radio baseband otherwise it won't work. None of the after-market ROMs have radios in them. Once an ICS ROM has been flashed you can install other ROMs since all of the later ones use ICS radio basebands.

Edit: One more thing that will help guide you in making your decision. Look at the Dev threads for the ROMs that you're interested in. Usually somewhere in the first or second post the author of the ROM will list the known bugs and issues associated with their ROM, and in the case of ROMs undergoing heavy development they will also list what they know is working well.

Good luck and welcome to the board
[HTC Amaze 4G] noob@xda:
Thank You very much :)

here is the abstract of what I understand:

I can select any of the stock ICS based ROMs

I'm coming from a ROM before ICS (it was GB) so I need to first flash a stock ICS factory image

Then I will be able to install the proper radio baseband

Once ICS ROM has been flashed I can install other ROMs

Now the new questions are popping up (respectively) :)

there are many vendors before selecting an ICS stock ROM (Mobilicity, Telus, T-Mobile etc.)

is it safe to select any of them ? (without knowing your phone's vendor)

what is 'stock ICS factory image' ? Can you please mention a link to download it or a guide to flash

what is 'proper' radio baseband ? (mine was 1.13.550L.13DC_30.69b.550L.101D)

How can I change / update to a proper baseband ? Can you please mention a link here too, (if necessary)

Thank You in Advance :)
[HTC Amaze 4G] Odysseus1962:
Since you're coming from Gingerbread I assume you have an Asian or unbranded Amaze. You need to follow the directions for those models. It requires you to attain s-off prior to flashing an ICS ROM. There are posts explaining the hack you need to do to get s-off. Once s-off you next need to superCID. Once both s-off and superCID have been attained you can flash an ICS ROM. You need to go through this procedure because the stock ROMs have carrier identification codes (CID) which prevent ROMs from one carrier running on another carrier's device. These hacks get around it.

At this point most folks flash the T-Mobile ICS ROM since it's fairly recent and the basis for most of the ICS modified ROMs. Once you've got an ICS radio installed you can then flash any ROM you'd like.

Again read through the pinned threads and familiarize yourself with the procedure. Failure to follow the directions correctly can result in a bricked phone. Then your next post will be in the Amaze unbricking project thread asking for desperate help.

I'm s-on. I didn't need s-off since I'm a T-Mobile customer and already had ICS before I started flashing ROMs. So I'm not going to be much help with the s-off procedure. Like I said, read through the appropriate threads and familiarize yourself on the procedure so you can move forward. For now, until you get s-off it's best to flash back to whatever stock ROM you had because there isn't much you can do until you get s-off and I'm sure you still want to have use of your handset.

I hope this helps.

Good luck
[HTC Amaze 4G] noob@xda:
I followed this method, yesterday and got my phone back (as it was before) :)
[HTC Amaze 4G] rdar_93:
Looks like [MENTION=5463522]Odysseus1962[/MENTION] has things under control here, but I'll still add my two cents, if he doesn't mind :P

I read through this post and I must say, I'm glad that you got your phone working again, even though it's only GB still.

Having said that I could safely assume that you have rooted your phone and installed 4ext recovery, and I'm hoping that you've performed S-OFF and SuperCID your device.

If you have done that, then I highly recommend you to the T-Mobile stock RUU before you even attempt any custom roms. Personally, I enjoyed the T-Mobile stock experience (well, I debloated it myself using Titanium Backup, removing a lot of the useless T-Mobile stuff ie; T-mobile voicemail, assist, 411 etc)

I actually used that rom for a while. Battery life was nice, the rom itself was really well done, as expected.

But this is all up to you, many of the custom roms here have so much more features than the T-Mobile, with a much smoother experience too.

But like Odysseus said, there are some flaws with the roms. Some have WiFi tether issues, bluetooth, in call volume and codec issues.

It's really a personal decision where you can settle after experiencing the roms first hand. Everybody uses their device differently, so you'll have to test the roms to find which one suits your needs and standards.

Thread : [GUIDE][GBtoICS]FOR INTERNATIONAL/ASIAN VERSION/UNBRANDED Amaze Owners-Read1st

2. 2nd Post of this Thread helped me to get back my phone in working state.

3. but as you know, this was not my aim. I had done this just to make sure that my phone is alive :p

4. to upgrade from GB to ICS, I carefully read and followed the 1st Post of same thread and last night I was successful to do so :)

Now I have perfectly working HTC Amaze 4G with ICS :victory:

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Just to share my experience :

i - the 'Wire Trick' was the most annoying thing, I tried several times to do it accurate.

ii - Step 3 of this process was to 'Unlock bootloader', I had done that. But after S-OFF, during the next steps, I noticed that bootloader is LOCKED again. I don't know if it's normal. Anyhow it didn't cause any problem for me.

Happy Ending :highfive:
[HTC Amaze 4G] rdar_93:
Lol Glad to hear that your phone is up and running with ICS :) :highfive:

About your concerns.. I'm surprise the wire trick gave you some trouble. I don't know about anybody else but I'm assuming it was sort of easy since I got it on my second try.

And yes, the bootloader re-locks itself after you flash the ICS T-Mobile RUU. That's why you're supposed to keep the code saved in a notepad file on your computer ;)

- take the time to search, read and read

- understand the risks, and what you're trying to do before you do it.

As of 6:52pm Monday, Google announced the much awaited Kitkat update to Google Glass. It will be referred to as XE16, and will come out later this week! The full post can be found on Google Glass G+ page.

To summarize it will include these much awaited features:

- Photo Bundles: your photos will be stored into groups so it's easier to navigate the UI.

- Photo Replies: Using the hangout application you will have the option to reply with a photo instead of just text.

- Sending Feedback: A feedback menu has been added to the device info card.

- Voice Command Sorting: Be able to sort your voice commands based on frequency of use.

One main feature will be removed! Google has taken it upon themselves to remove the hangouts video call feature. It was not up to their standards, according to the official post.

What do ya guys/ gals think? Kitkat worth video call removal? Not enough features for the time it took? lets hear what ya gotta say below.
[Glass General] KillerBeaver:
I've been waiting on this update for so long; I am so excited! I didn't use video calls very much. So, i'm not super bummed about it. But, i can understand why other people who do rely on this functionality would be disappointed about its removal. Kinda feel like that decision should have been left to the discretion of the users. But, ultimately, it sounds like they're expecting independent developers to fill the void for the time being. Regardless, i'm stoked, and i'm going to be checking the info card every day this week until the update comes out!
[Glass General] tech.central:
If Glass is now Kit Kat (and according to Google plus at least 50 people have got it) Why does XDA still say it runs ICS

(also why does it say; it's weightless, was released in 1969, and has a 0 inch screen)
[Glass General] Muskeman16:
The update before the update

I just was messing with my glass and plugged it in when the auto update started. :D The first update you'll get is the 12.1 update which seems to update the main system to get ready for the kitkat update. Then a little bit after the full update will come! I'm still waiting for the update to finish. I'll make sure to test out the main things people were having problems with and post my findings afterward. If you guys/ gals what me to try anything right away please let me know. :D

Was working OK...went to install spb clone..asked if I wanted to make a clone of the device on my existing mini-SD card..I said yes. Now it hangs at the "Windows Mobile" screen...

I tried the Hard - Reset (push the two buttons and hold in the soft-reset button, press green phone button...) and also taking the battery out.

It boots up with Cingular screen with info about ROM then goes to Windows Mobile screen...that's it. The BT and green power light flash (I had on BT before it crashed)...

Anyone have any ideas...? I hope it's not fricked up...of course I could always take it back I think...

dont know about re-rom, but my guess is it should load fine without the sd card, i suspect the card may have become corrupt which is causing the device to hang, had similar problem myself after installing pocket mechanic it took a hard reset and a format of the card to solve it :roll:

Can you get your wizard into USB mode by holding down the voice command button, hitting the reset button with your stylus, and continuing to hold the voice command down for a couple seconds until you get a three-color screen?

If you can get to this screen, your bootloader is intact, and there is still definite hope for your device.

I have a G flex i decided to yea take a 720p display over a 1080p display because battery was more important to me, i hated taking my charger everywhere with me or carrying 2 extra batteries like really that's not normal and some folks think it is lol.
