I'd suggest booting to fast boot and run an RUU or to bootloader and load an official PG86IMG file

While everyone is having fun with s-off, I'm a sitting duck. I managed to successfully root my 3D but once I rebooted and made it to the handsfree activation window it instantly goes into bootloop. Im not a noob so by me having experience I tried to do a few things to fix it. First I tried cache wiping and it didnt work. Next I tried to back up, wipe phone, then restore and that didnt work as well and after doing that, now I can't get pass the first HTC screen. Anyone, PLEASE shed some light. This is very fustrating.

I was thinking maybe a re flash would fix was was causing the bootloop....Im not sure of the exploit they used but I figured that was worth a shot....kinda like when people were flashing Virus kingdom ROM twice....just a thought

Guess its time to head over to feenode #revolutionary. The Devs are hanging around there.

I think its the stock Rom. I've tried to backup and restore but ever since I wiped my data I can't get past the the splash screen. Im downloading a Rom to flash that I found in the dev section. If that doesn't work I'm going to try the RUU thing. Im made because the only thing I have to work with is a hero, and it downloads **** so slow. I had the fastest internet in the house until this happened.

You'll get it back up and running. If you're downloading the TI-X rom by dc13, you're going to want to hold off on flashing that for now. He said it won't flash yet, and he's working on fixing it. If you're not talking about that one, then nevermind. I would think that running an RUU would fix it, but I'm not quite sure yet if there is anything you need to do before running the RUU, as far as the bootloader goes.

I would guess it'll only be a matter of hours before some stock rooted roms start appearing. I'm not sure if running the RUU will overwrite your hboot. I think I read that it will not, but don't know for sure.

get the ZIP, not exe. i tried exe and it failed.
-rename file to PC86IMG.zip
-boot into bootloader, ruu will work itself.
boot back into stock rom.
-you will still have S-OFF, but i could not flash custom recovery. HBOOT looks like it reverted. trying to fastboot cwm/twrp recoveries failed.
-re s-off using rev (didnt fail even though i had S-OFF already, prev failed when i tried to rerun rev having S-OFF)
-HBOOT got changed to new version thru rev S-OFF
-was able to flash twrp using fastboot. tried cwm, worked. went back to twrp recovery.
-flashed fixed su zip (to enable root) and was able to boot back into stock rom.
-tested titanium, works.
-tested autokiller, works.
thanks for the help guys.

Why do I always get "main version older"?

Whenever I try to flash a ROM I always get "main version older". I'm on the stock, rooted gingerbread ROM right now with an unlocked bootloader and if I try to flash any ROM whether it's a gingerbread or ICS ROM I always get the same message when the phone reboots to the bootloader to flash the kernel.
What can I do about this?
After I first unlocked my phone I tried to install an ICS rom then I installed a gingerbread rom after and I never saw that message once. Then I started seeing it so I went back to stock to see if that would fix my issue but it hasn't.

It mostly mean your htc rezound is on a newer main version of software you going to need to downgrade by changing the number here a link to help you do this and take out the older message that come up http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1467099
So, theoretically, if I take it all the way back down to 1.00.000.0 I could be able to flash anything because whatever I flash will always be greater than the main version.

Well it works. Anyone have any idea how I keep getting stuck at the HTC screen when I flash some roms (ICS ones mostly). I've never made it past the HTC screen with CleanRom and now I'm on the new Bamf ICS 0.5 rom and I'm sitting here stuck again. The kernel flashed successfully in the bootloader so I'm not sure why I keep getting stuck.

...Gingerbread roms aren't working either. I have flashed 1 ICS rom and 2 Gingerbread roms in the past but for some reason now, I can't flash anything.
I'm wondering if flashing the stock RUU and relocking, then unlocking again and reflashing Amon Ra would fix the issue. After I originally unlocked was the only time I could ever successfully flash anything.
Don't see how locking and re-unlocking would make a difference.

SIM issue on Clean Rom 4.2

Hope this is the correct place to ask, but quick question. So (short form) I relocked bootloader, reflashed the RUU, unlocked boot loader, installed ROM and it works great UNTILL I insert my SIM card, then it just keeps restarting. Why does this happen? What do I need to do, start all over and reflash everything? Please help!
Did you flash ruu twice.....it doesn't flash everything the first time through
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using XDA
This is gonna sound retarded, but I think so. The first time it installed the RUU, it was a blue status bar on the right, the 2nd time it was a brown status bar. But, I had already installed the ROM prior to seeing the brown bar...Does that make any since? I used to be decent at this, but it's been a while...
relock and reflash the ruu twice... then flash recovery and then flash a rom
Worst case flash the ruu again...watch it do each step successfully...that's what I would do. When I did the first flash using scoslers instructions I needed to do a battery pull since it was stuck at white htc screen...

Brick updating firmware

So this morning I decided to update my firmware from the PJ75IMG.zip. I booted back to and while I was in the bootload a factor reset was done by accident. Now my operating system is now erased. S-off'ed with lazy panda. Also, i have no backup because my Vista crashed a week ago. Sprint will replace my phone, but is there any possibility of unbricking now?

Im guessing people dont understand the term bricked.....
Bricked- A device state in which you can NOT get to bootloader, Recovery or standard installed OS.

Sorry to hear that. I believe you're gonna need a pc to try to do anything towards fixing it. Try an RUU. You can always get a replacement before they start giving out refurbs.

If you can access recovery you can flash a rom. Your other option would be to run the ruu. You will never get your data back though.

S-ON and SuperCID, can I go back to stock?

I am looking to use moonshine to achieve s-off. I currently have S-ON and SuperCID. I need to update firmware first, so I need to switch back to stock. I am planning on using this method to do so.
Do I need to un-SuperCID, if so, how?
If I leave SupeCID, and run RUU what happens? No OTAs, or something worse?
Excuse my noob questions.
no noob questions here man thats why we help and as far as updating firmware are you planing on using a custom rom and kernel or just wanting s-off for a custom kernel on 2.07 firmware?
supercid does not need to be changed you only have extra steps if you are s-off which then you would need to relock the bootloader first

Well my plan was to go back to stock to ota to the 2.07 then load custom rom, vipers new one actually, after doing moonshine to achieve s-off
I thought leaving supercid was going to prevent me from successful ota. I can always flash the zip instead of ota though, right?
Also I made a more detailed thread in the development section on what I am going to work on doing, with steps that I think are correct, here is the link. I was finally able to post in that section

I am happy to announce I am now S-OFF after facepalm! I actually found your thread about customer recovery. Will be doing that shortly.
One thing that is left to figure out is the tampered flag. I am not able to find any information on how to actually reset it. I found something on a different website about issuing a -t command. But that was after the s-off was achieved using revone. After further research, apparently all I need to do is flash another hboot to get rid of that flag?
P.S
This thread looks like a winner http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2156713 am I on a correct path here?
yes thats correct
You can ignore that flag. If and when you return the phone to complete stock that will taken care of.

New problem. Flashed 2.6 twrp, erased system, cache and internal storage. Went to sideload mode, keeps saying starting. Issue a command in and to load a Rom, nothing happens, cmd return a list of all the commands. Twrp still states starting sideload. Restart the phone to recovery, still the same problem. Flash older version of twrp?
Also twrp keeps telling me I am not rooted.
Thoughts?
Why did you wipe internal storage? Easiest way is to load the ROM onto internal and flash.
Rebooting twrp will install su binaries.
Try older twrp or cwm

Well Viper Sense 5 rom needed a full wipe, so, I wiped everything. Are you saying I do not have to wipe internal storage, just clear everything else, then flash the rom?
The problem was that I have a bad habit of putting spaces when renaming zip files. Once I renamed the zip adb worked just fine. :facepalm:

I have been flashing roms for the past 8 hours. Looking for the perfect sense 5. Every rom has issues with data on my phone. Tried 5 . Google play store will not download anything, Or it starts downloading at dial up speeds. 2 roms I actually had to reflash twice because they kept hanging u at at the initial start.
5 roms doing the same thing? I was starting to think something happened to the phone, so I reflashed the original UKB DNA 1.3 rom that I have been running all this time, and it does the same thing.
Any ideas?

So my phone went completely nuts last night. I decided to flash another back up that was working perfectly before going with your recommended rom. Kept failing in TWRP. So after 3 attempts I just decided to reload another rom. Rom installed, phone rebooted, went through initial setup. Once I finished with the initial setup my phone was running sense5 with all of the information from the backup. Needless to say I nuke everything, flash original TWRP (2.4.0.0 beta) that worked for me prior to 2.6. Do a clean install of Viper Sense5 rom and voila! Running perfect right now, no complaints. Fingers crossed. I guess I am done flashing roms for right now and sticking to Vipers. At least until KitKat comes.

screwed the pooch on a root and now its dead. help needed

i just purchased a htc one max from y sprint carrier. ill save the long storys.
i rooted it just fine from what i could tell. unlocked it as well. the i tried flashing skydragon on it, and it seems it reduced the functionality. so naturally i didnt back anything up. and tried to remove it, or tried to flash another rom. can remember honestly its been a long two days trying to get this thing to at least back to factory. and so now the end result. there is no OS. the bootloader is still flashed to non stock with s on. and everytime i try to flash a rom it fails. tried adb sideload and that failed. tried the onclick factory reset. that fails. so far htc guru gets the furthest. it runs all the way through the installer gets to the end. and when it reboots it says no os installed. so im at a loss. my last ditch effort is gonna be just bring it back or smash it and claim insurance replacement.
any ideas would be fantastic
Not to experienced on this side either but I have a good sense if development. Have you tried running rumrunner to get s-off. It sounds like you will need to be s-off. Also which custom recovery are you using?
