I unlocked/rooted my phone earlier and then installed the boot image for an ICS rom...
Then when I went to go flash the rom it self I realized like an idiot that I didn't install a recovery aman ra/clockwork
Can some please tell me what path to take her to install the recovery now...
I really need help here guys...
I dled the stock kernel and I can get into my phone now but I'm not getting any service
I have the fdny test in a few hours and really need to get my phone working ASAP

The instructions for installing recovery are in the Amon Ra thread in the development forum.

Sounds like you planned doing this with some thought...
Installing AmonRa is very straight foreword.. There are a number of threads that cover it in detail.
The newest version
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=23781936&postcount=428
http://www.mediafire.com/?nie2w1ei0phhhup
Here is the link to the newest Amon Ra. Put it in the folder with fastboot exe, the folder you used to unlock your phone. Plug your phone into your PC. Boot your phone into hboot and select fastboot. It will say fastboot usb. Run the command "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" recovery.img being the file name of the recovery download. You can name the file whatever you want if it makes it easier to run in the command ling
Yeah I know...It was a really stupid move on my part. Thank you guys...There were 2 AmanRa files and I needed to use the updated one or something. I tried the original and it didn't work so that's why I panicked. I fixed it like 20 min after this thread but ty guys so much!

i started i started running mik runny yesterday. I dont know if it was somethign with the rom but. I just updated my prl on dfs and once i went to reboot it wont go past the white htc screen and just keeps bootlooping. I cannot figure it out. Ive wiped everything muiltiple times. my nanadroids do the same thing. New roms too. I even did a factory reset. i dont get it My recovery and fastboot still work though. any other suggestions?
Flashed a new recovery img. i was using twrp2.0 i flashed twrp 1.3 to see if i had any luck with that but no dice. Im downloading the latest RUU now and hopefully that will fix it. Im guessing if it doesnt then something happened to my phone. If im not mistaken flashing the PG86IMG will flash allthe partitions so there would be no reason for it to not work unless of course something happened to the hardware?
Btw Hboot 1.4 and running mikrunny when the bootloop started. Im super confused since it booted fine for me numerous times. The only thing i changed before this reboot was prl and i turned fastboot off earlier. one other thing im downloading RUU_Shooter_S_Sprint_WWE_2.17.651.5 radio 1.00.1216 this isnt going to affect my hboot once flashing right? even if i have to re root thats fine i just dont wanna get stuck in 1.5 prison

well im kinda stuck now. I tried to run the ruu for my hboot version and on step 11 system it failed to unzip. so now i have s off still but no recovery. Im gonna try to put cwm back on my sd and hope that it flashes and see if i can get some rom to flash. I cant figure this out i feel like a newb again. fml. Does it matter that it wasnt the first time i booted into the rom for it to be a bad flash like that?
well i think im officially bricked. I ran an older ruu and it failed to unzip system so after much searching i decided to run one of the latest pg86imgs it fully updated succesfully but still bootloops at the htc screen. So now i have a locked hboot 1.5 with s-off. I gotta get some sleep and see what i can do tommorow. from evreything i have read they say im not bricked if im able to do what i have. but i dont understand why nothing will work.

Sup man your not bricked don't worry or even soft bricked lol.
You should of waited on that updated zip reason it's boot loopin or lockin up is due to the phone never got wiped before the update....
Here is the CWM that will work for you. You need to put the img in your platform tools for ADB. Rename the img file to cwm then plug your phone in while in hboot. Type fastboot flash recovery cwm.img this will put the recovery back on your phone man.
In CWM you can mount your phone and copy a rom you downloaded off xda. Take the rom you downloaded open it up on your computer make a copy of the boot.img place that in your platform tools folder. Now mount your phone using CWM copy the romwhich will put it on your sd card. Now wipe everything. Then while in ADB type : adb reboot bootloader this will take you to hboot again now type fastboot flash boot boot.img this will flash the kernel for you. Now go back into recovery and flash your rom.
You should be good to go man. Let me know if you have any questions.
This should get your phone working...
The good thing about the 3vo is dat its unbrickable just always keep a Rom u ones work an always erase scrub thing / factory reset cutting shortcuts don't work in rooting/dev world

Ok so now that i ran that ruu that changed my hboot to 1.5 is that gonna affect how the cwm installs?even though it says s-off. Also for some reason im having trouble running any commands for fastboot. Ive followed a bunch of guides made sure the envinronemtal variables were correct ect, ect but none of the adb commands will work. Maybe its my pc idk.
Since i cant get fastboot to work on my pc do you think i would just be able to reinstall clockworkmod by renaming it on my sd like you do to root in the first place. Then use it to wipe and then try reflashing?
U might have to re unlock it if ur 3vo says locked at the top if not u should have no problem

I was able to re run the pg86img with the 1.4 hboot now im back on hboot 1.4 still with soff and doesnt say locked anymore. I also was able to install recovery again but i used twrp 1.3 since none of the download links i could find were good and the ones that were good were disk img. I tried running virus superwipe tool and reflashing a rom again to see if anyhtign changed but it didnt. i really just wish i could get the commands to work to use fastboot and adb.
One thing i just noticed in recovery i went into mounts and system and data were unmounted and cache and sdcard were mounted. Do i need to mount everything and try again or was that the way it should of been?

I read about the 1.5 with s-off issue a while back when hboot 1.5 first was released. As long as you have s-off, it doesn't really matter what hboot you have. You'll be able to flash entire ROMs (kernel included) in one step just like you could before your issue arose, because you have s-off. I sadly don't have enough experience with fastboot to be able to give you an easy guide to flashing cwm onto your phone though, but I hope this helps you at least somewhat.
EDIT: I just realized everything I said now doesn't matter since you're not on hboot 1.5 anymore...sorry about that. reaper24 gave you a link to cwm 4.0.1.4 in post #8 in this thread. Stop using TWRP 1.3, there's already a TWRP 2 specifically for EVO 3D and even the latest TWRP has been having issues. CWM has been completely stable for me on every HTC phone I've ever used (Hero CDMA, EVO 4G and now currently the EVO 3D). CWM 4.0.1.4 is in post #8 of this thread as an attachment (it's a small link in between reaper's post and his signature)

i have the clockwork mod from your link downloaded. That one i have to flash via cmd right? im having trouble getting any commands to work on either pc. However i did get qtadb to work on one of them im able to run all the same commands from the shell on it correct? nevermind on this i dont think this is made for that i may be wrong though.
If so i can flash recovery img then flash new rom boot img ect. .. i was told i have to do via pc in order to flash the boot partition cause thats whats causing my problem.
I have all the paths specified on my pc and everythign i need in my tools folder but cant cd to anyhting. i have read and read and read im pretty sure i have it all setup right but everytime i cd it says path not specified or not a batch file or soemthing.

i know right. I think what it might be is something i saw earlier about since i flashed the PG86IMG and it took revolutionary off my hboot that i no longer have fastboot. I tried to run some other commands and got the same thing. So for the hell of it i tried to run revolutionary from hbootand fastboot and it just waits for device. But then when i reboot the phone it will recognize it, but it doesnt stay long enough to run revolutionary.No i just have to remember which pg86img it was that made my phone just stay at the white screen so i can run revolutionary. lol
I have been screwing with my phone for over 4 days straight and I CANNOT figure anything out....Im so frustrated!!! I flashed a ROM and now I am in continuous bootloop mode. My clockwork mod is completely broke down, I can't backup my nand because it is on Amon recovery. but i can't figure out how to reinstall Amon through bootloader....since, when i restart my phone. i only get about 5 seconds to try and do anything before it bootloops.....PLEASE someone help me step by step. I need someone to comment back and stay posted on this thread for me....please I am on my last leg, I just want my phone to be rooted, a good recovery installed and thats all I'm asking for.....But the problem is, I have to do everything through bootloader because of the bootloop.....I want to get clockwork mod off my phone and reinstall Amon recovery.
Run the ruu of your choice and then while in fast boot do:
Fastboot flash recovery nameoffile.img
would you mind posting a link to a RUU for me please?? I am to the point where I don't care what ROM it is. I just wanna be able to get on my phone and get recovery working right. Thank you

no you run the ruu first and what you flash in fastboot is the recovery
flashing a recovery:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery file.img
then flash a rom
i honestly can link you to a list of ruus because there not all in one place :/
also once the file is installed onto my PC, I have to extract that file to c:\android where I have fastboot located in correct???

Oh wow ok, I thought an RUU was sort of the same thing as a ROM. Ok so I download an RUU, let it run. does it have to be in the android file that I created? or just let it run and do its thing?

If it's an exe file just plug your phone in and run it but if it's a zip file rename it to "PH98IMG.zip" and put it on your external sd card then reboot to bootloader.

ok thanks. Do i need to relock my bootloader up in order for a RUU to be installed on my phone???
I am a complete noob. Sprint Evo 3d 1.5 s-on, I have been running Viper IC3D for a month now, loving it,should have stuck with that. I wanted to try one of the Jelly Bean Roms, specifically the Team D.I.R.T. one, but I didn't want to have to keep flashing the two roms back and forth. Found out about Boot Manager Pro on here, and found a thread about using it with hboot 1.5 s-on. followed the instructions, booted into D.I.R.T. rom. fiddled with it, decided to go back to my phone rom. Boot Manager kept unexpectedly closing on me, wouldn't stay open long enough to do anything. So I went into recovery and restored my nandroid of Viper. But D.I.R.T. loaded! Said screw it, and wiped and reflashed Viper. D.I.R.T. loaded! Couldn't get anything but that ROM to load no matter what I did. Uninstalled Boot Manager, nothing but D.I.R.T.So I hunted around here and found a thread that said if all else failed, to manually remove Bootloader from sd and go from there. Did that, and it soft bricked my phone. I can get into recovery, but no matter what I do when I reboot it hangs in HTC white boot screen. I cannot afford another phone and don't get an upgrade til next year. Please Say there is a solution to this! I cried all last night, couldn't sleep, and I'm crying again. Side note, i accidentally erased half the C; Drive on my laptop trying things I found on another android forum,and system restore didn't work. So I'm back here, and I'm scared to try anything else, but I have to do something. Help!!!!!!
Flash the kernel. All will be well.
Viper rom should include boot.img.
Extract it to sdk-tools folder.
Open terminal, cd to sdk-tools directory.
Hold volume plus down on phone. Hit power button on fastboot option.
Plug in phone to computer. It should say fastboot usb on phone screen now. If not, install htc drivers.
Go to terminal. Type "fastboot flash boot boot.img
Should see some stuff happen on computer screen, phone will reboot.
Do that then report back.

I'm doomed. I was able to flash CWM this way, although it didn't help me at all. But I tried to flash the boot img and it didn't work. Didn't seem to recognize the command.
I'm cdma s-on? So basically you relocked and flashed an RUU and then relocked?
try to relock and flash with RUU it will work
At first when you were unable to boot back to phone rom, you should have went into recovery and flash the update.zip located in the sdcard/bootmanager/phonerom.
Anyway try to flash back to viperrom again then boot your recovery via fast boot since you are not s-off. And flash the update.zip from the phone rom folder. If everything fails just relock your bootloader and use the ruu.exe and you should be fine.

The command is: fastboot flash boot c:\(navigate to the sdk map with boot.img)\boot.img
For instance. for me it's c:\Users\(my name)\boot.img
Because i have my sdk and boot.img in my User map.
I believe boot manager creates the files for the second rom on the sd card. maybe thats why the D.I.R.T rom is loading.. My advice, try a different sdcard and see if the viper rom starts (you still might have to flash the boot.img via adb because of s-on)
I have no idea where the files for second rom are created so maybe if someone else could help out here. Then it should be a simple matter of deleting the second rom from the sd card and then go ahead and flash your viper rom.

Yes you will have to get new code from htcdev. Though i wouldn't recommend updating hboot cause its known to cause some issues with some roms
Ok to start off i unlocked,rooted,flashed cwm with hansoons tool kit everything went perfect! Was having problems flashing roms because i am s -on. I had a nandroid tho so i just restored it and everything worked fine again. Last night i flashed a rom and after flashing was sent to hboot. Now my phone is stuck either on a black screen. At first i couldnt get in recovery thru hboot but after i removed my ext sd it would let me choose to enter recovery. So i went to restore my nandroid and md5 mismatched.. Im at a loss.. I tried to get help somewhere else but havent got a reply and i need my phone for work tomorrow! If anyone can help id appreciate. Im not a noob just kinda a noob to htc and this s-on/s-off stuff.
First I would install Amon Ra recovery, then I would just flash a new ROM that does the boot.img thing by itself like Clean ROM.

What ROM did you try flashing?
If you have a computer nearby. You have CWM still installed? Make a new md5 file of the nandroid
or
reflash a rom that you do have on your phone
or
flash a kernel and hope it boots like joels
or
if all else fails. I would say download latest RUU and flash it in HBOOT. That is the last thing you would want to do.

Well you will need to download the full RUU. http://www.androidpolice.com/2012/0...ull-ruu-build-4-03-605-2-for-the-htc-rezound/ and place the file on your sdcard as PH98IMG.zip and when you boot into HBOOT it will ask you to update. Just press yes.

You can get your phone to install the RUU through fastboot if you have a computer with it installed
Download the RUU to your computer. With fastboot make sure it is recognizing your phone. Now here are the commands. fastboot oem rebootRUU a black screen will appear with an HTC in the middle. Next command will be fastboot flash zip rezound_AndroidPolice_4.03.605.2_PH98IMG.zip
There are also .exe ruu files. You can find them here.

True. Unless you want Global RUU. Then it's a .zip
But thanks for the links. I had no idea where some .exe files were.
link down

No idea man. If this link doesn't work then I am not sure if I can find another link out there. http://shipped-roms.com/download.php?&model=Vigor&file=PH98IMG_ICS_4.03.605.2.zip&send_file=yes
If still not downloading then try another internet browser like chrome or firefox

Thanks graywolf but firefox is a no go also. I cant believe the luck im having with the links. I have an idea maybe someone could tell me if it would work. Since i am unable to download from my phone i was thinking of running to radioshack and buying one of those sd cards that a micro goes inside of, i could then put it in my laptop download clean rom put it on the sd card, then put the micro in my phone boot into recovery and flash away. I've heard this cleanrom flashes eveything together so you dont have to flash the boot.img seperately. Would this idea work?

That would work. But cleanrom is so outdated. Use Nils Sense 3.6 if your on the global firmware. But out of curiosity what ROM do you currently have installed? If it is a Sense rom. Install one of the kernels found. Maybe Bamf since his is setup for easy s-on guys.

Hello, after messing with my stock rom for a while I tried to get a few different ones to install. After none of them would I kind of... raged wiped my phone clean. I don't know what I've done wrong but the furthest I can get on anything is bootloop. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Phone
CDMA Sprint
Hboot 1.58
TWRP 2.5
S-Off
Edit:
Now my TWRP is gone...tried installing it again with fastboot and with .zip method. No dice. I'm lost.

Please take a look at my guide:
Scroll to about the end of the first post.
Also note that certain Roms only work on certain hboots.
Always make sure to find out which you should be on before flashing.

Thank you for your assistance. Got up to this point
III. Then it's time to push a recovery.img.
1. Download http://animeondroid.host22.com/recovery.img = Thanks 4ext team.
The link seems to be dead. I'll see if I can find it on the net.
Edit:
Couldn't find the file. I'm going to just install 4ext from in the phone. The guide has been a great help otherwise thanks.

III. Then it's time to push a recovery.img.
The link is broken. Couldn't find a recovery.img on 4ext website.
Edit 2: The phone will not install 4ext busybox or supersu from within the os. The hboot says unlocked and S-off. Any ideas?
have you tried CWM recovery image file thru fastboot? you can always change recovery afterwards.
