Installing ICS - Is this the right procedure? - HTC Amaze 4G

Would this be the right procedure? I was reading the wiki and want to ask..
I would do the following...
(I am rooted; BulletProof 2.5.. Android 2.3.4 - Tmobile)
1) Follow this tutorial to unroot and get back to stock:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=27058110&postcount=44
2) Follow this tutorial to install ICS
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=26865752&postcount=27
3) AND...Then... I will be unrooted..
How would I root again on ICS?
So is this the right procedure??
and what would I do for (#3)?

You don't necessarily need to use my OTA tutorial if you're gonna restore to complete stock GB, then you can just download the file via the software update option on your phone and let it install the update itself, the guy above answered your final question already.

, go for it then. If you're on tmobile, there's a file that can be used as a PH85IMG to update instead, that may be a bit easier if the OTA is iffy.

ok got the image...
For rooting ICS, do I still unlock the bootloader.. the whole process?
and thanks for all the help so far.

Yes unfortunately bc don't you need a recovery like cwm or 4ext to flash super user? Anyways you should s off. Makes everything super easy.
Dknmare waiting for correction if I'm wrong lol

Does make it super easy, doesn't have to though, it's all upto him if he wants to. Lol at needing my approval, about time you started being confident in what you say dude, you've messed with your own device, you should know which was better for you in your opinion, your opinion matters since you did do it and you know the benefits personally.

Ok, I can give S-OFF another try.. but last time I tried and I was in this rom: "BulletProof 2.5" , it did not work.... so from experience of you guys, what rom have people been the most sucessful getting S-OFF??

You won't need s-off if you using the method I gave you

ok, ill think about the 2 options.. with S-OFF and with S-ON.
but as far as reverting to stock to then flash ICS, no instruction says I need to have my bootloader back locked... I do, right?

Relocked is the same and when attempting s-off, stock rooted rom is a better call, it saves you the hassle that custom roms may cause.

I mean the MD5 sums fail on both PHP8img w/e name... and the nand backup to restore to original ginger garbage.. so I think it's because I have to relock my bootloader by doing OEM_lock or whatever the command is.
do I have to lock bootloader to go back to stock?
and also.. do I need to flash the original kernel?

come on.. someone answer me please... I will make a REALLY good tutorial noob proof for everyone else when I finish doing this.

I was also having problems with my downloads so I downloaded thru my phone. I also found that I had better luck downloading straight from football's account on file factory. You can find his account on stock roms collection page 5 snargaflab post where it says "here"
Hope this helps, as far as locking bootloader when s on I think you do have to lock bootloader. If nobody is helping I suggest you try it out.

Lock your bootloader via the fastboot oem lock command or use hasoon's tool to do it,
download this file here: http://d-h.st/3VD
Place that on your sd card and rename it PH85IMG do not place it in any folders, etc.
Reboot into hboot via the volume down/power button method, when your hboot finds the file, hit volume up to update, phone will reboot on it's own. You're on ICS.
Unlock your bootloader, install 4ext recovery via hasoon's tool and hit the Perm root ICS/GB option, follow all on screen instructions.
All done, official ICS and you're now rooted as well.

But I am trying it right now. I am flashing back to stock GB as we speak and going to test it.
So let me see if I understand (I read a few articles about this) I don't have to be rooted to flash this? What I'm wondering is if I do flash this without root and unlocked bootloader, how would I go about reverting back to Gingerbread if I wanted too?

In my observations you would be able to flash it fine without root. But in order to go back to GB you would need to unlock your hboot. You'll be able to unlock it after you flash.

im no expert by any means but if i had to guess you would have to unlock your bootloader then flash a custom recovery then modify your main ver of your phone like what this thread says http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1526316
there is a easy flashable in recovery zip in i think post #4 of that fourm that might be easier than the tool in post #1 of the forum.
but you will probably want to wait for someone to answer who acually tested it or know for sure.

True. If he tried to go back to GB after flashing the ICS he would get the mainver error if he tried flashing a boot.img in hboot. If he used fastboot to flash the boot.img he would get no error.
So I'm running rooted stock with an unlocked bootloader at the moment. If I wanted to flash this, do I need to re-lock the bootloader?

Does one click root work for stock ics?

i just got my amaze yesterday, i installed the official ics OTA this morning, and now i want to root it. Does the one click root program work for the Amaze while it is on stock ics or would i have to downgrade?
I'm not sure, Look for hasoons all in one tool in the dev section. Has recoveries root and another one specifically for s off. You will find you will use his tool if you flash constantly

Hasoons tool wouldnt work for me when i updated to the WIND ICS OTA, i had to find the sudo package and install it via recovery. it did work for me in gingerbread.. just a heads up..
No one click. Read the stickies... Learn about unlocking bootloaders, 4 ext recovery, flashing superuser in recovery, and supercid. It's all rather simple. PLENTY of threads about it.

Unlocking your bootloader using HTCDev Unlock will allow you to flash a custom recovery. With a custom recovery, obtaining root is easy (plenty of flashable ZIPs for this). This has nothing to do with your version of HBOOT (or firmware or OTA version).
Read the guide I linked to above and it will answer these questions...

[Q] A simple, "How do I?"

Hey forum,
First off I'd like to say, I have done quite a bit of searching on this and either get caught up in endless pages of crap I don't fully understand or I just can't find the answer. My apologies if this issue is simple and out there.
With that said, I'm definitely a noob at all the rooting and ROMs for phones. I've spent 20 years using cell phones as.. well, phones! Had no idea the world that was waiting for me and the time consuming hours of research and trial and error.
So I got the Amaze and first off, wanted to root it so I used CWM which is currently running. I then get an update notification for ICS but every time I try to install it, I'm stuck at a green X logo.
Is there a way to install ICS with CWM already on my phone or do I need to remove it first? I have searched for both answers which is why I finally set up an account and created this thread.
Any and all assistance is greatly appreciated!

You might have to unroot it and install ICS firmware before upgrading to ICS roms, Im not completely sure, I might have done this the long way after reading into confusion. The shortest way to get ICS on your amaze is using 4ext to flash a rom if CWM does not work.

Thank you Hasoon! I actually wish I had seen this post earlier. I got stuck on so many different threads with users having the same exact issues and I finally was able to relock the phone. Not sure what I was doing wrong but it's all good now.
However, after relocking, I went back to stock instead of just doing the the ICS rom. As I'm typing this, my phone is in the process of of installing ICS via the OTA updater. Now I just want to root it again and move on for now. This crap is way too time consuming for me
**Edit - Is it normal for this phone to sit at the HTC Amaze 4g screen during boot for about a minute? I thought this thing booted super fast before I started messing with it

Yes - you can't just flash the rom, as flashing the RUU in the bootloader as hasoon instructed actually repartitions the phone, and writes a bunch of files you can't flash anyways unless you had s-off(like radio, etc).

No,formatting the sd card is a different issue,its for clear all the possible bad sectors and files....put your PH85IMG file after formatting the sd card...and you do not need recovery while you returning to stock...right

you do not need recovery to flash a stock ROM,because the fastboot automatically detects your PH85IMG from your ext sd card.

relock the bootloader then flash your ruu once it's done flash the jbear hboot (or else you'll have trouble flashing the recovery) plus since you already have an ics firmware why are you messing your phone up :S just flash some rom and enjoy it? you keep flashing stuff more than using your phone as a phone :/
I unlocked and installed cm 10 before I s-off. Could not run s-off successfully without stock.

I can't successfully rollback to the gb ruu or the ics ruu. The ics ruu is an ota which appears to need an gb install.

It's a ROM that's very close to stock T-Mobile OTA from March of 2013, it's deodexed, with minor tweaks and slight debloating, and addons which are done through the Aroma installer. It can be found in the dev section of this board.

I don't believe you can s-off with any non-stock ROM (though I may be mistaken). I think you need to be on the latest factory image from your carrier before you can run the s-off hack or it won't work. Reread through the instructions carefully and I think you'll find what I'm saying is correct.

I unlocked and installed cm 10 before I s-off. Could not run s-off successfully without stock.
So... I asked similar questions a month or so back about Telus.
I can't successfully rollback to the gb ruu or the ics ruu. The ics ruu is an ota which appears to need an gb install.
Pure stock tmous ruu check for tmous cid and fails when it finds the Telus cid.
Finally installed arhd 4 and s-off tool ran without error. I could then flash radio and hboot

ARHD won't help you for several reasons. First, it isn't a stock ROM, it's been rooted, deodexed, and some apps removed from stock. Second, it's based on a T-Mobile ruu and you don't have the T-Mobile version of this handset. There are several threads which detail how you can get back to stock, please read them, use the search function, and do some research for yourself rather than spamming the board requesting help.

Reread my post. I didn't say you couldn't flash it, I said you couldn't attain s-off with it, because it isn't a stock ROM for your device. In order to attain s-off the CID of the ROM has to match the CID of your handset. The vast majority of ROMs for the Amaze are made from a T-Mobile base so they are incompatible for your purposes because of this mismatch. What about this fact do you not understand? There have been many threads written about this, and the solutions have been given to you by several folks here in the forum.
Regardless, please discontinue spamming the board, especially when you have been told how to resolve your issue. You were the one who didn't initially follow directions and are now stuck, not any of us. If you're incapable of following basic directions or searching for the answers yourself then you shouldn't be modding your phone in the first place.
