Thank you for the quick reply, but i don't really understand which ROM should i flash. Can i just factory reset? and do the OTA?

Chainfire is not supported on our evos, you will soft brick every time. You have to flash a new Rom. Either flash a Rom and kernel separately or flash a Rom with kernel installer like meanrom

om4, thank you for the reply. I've read your Dont' Panic thread, would it be possible to flash the boot.img alone? can i flash with the latest RUU ? or is there a latest stock ROM available, because i only get from search is the previous stock ROM

2.13 stock deodexed with root

Thank you very much om4, the link in OP thread is dead but i can manage to find Captain_Throwback link.Do i need to relock the bootloader? and I still need to flash the kernel after i flash it with the deodex stock right?
If i decide to go with the mean rom, should i re-lock the bootlader or just straight flashing the rom after clean wipe and factory reset?

If you flash meanrom you don't need to relock bootloader. Only relock the bootloader if you are getting ready to flash ruu or if you are trying to accept an ota. To accept an ota you would need a stock Rom and recovery before relocking bootloader

Which recovery you have installed? Install 4ext rc3 and flash the Rom, you might not be able to do it cause you must be flashing an ics Rom which requires a different kernel, either use fastboot to flash the boot.img or use 4ext touch recovery...
Thanks for the help bro.
I just want to make this straight.
What should i do and which recovery should i install to install ics rom?
Just letting u know that mine is s-on
EDIT:I tried the 4ext recovery rc3. But still failed. I cant install ics rom with it.

Rooted with zedomax how to ota?

I am stock, locked, s-on, and rooted with zedomax one click so i could use wifi teather and titanium backup. How can I apply the ota and still keep root? If that's not possible what do you recommend?
Are u using a custom Rom? If you are then wait for one of the Rom developers to incorporate the latest ota.

Noob here don't know how. I thought I couldn't flash any Roms with zedomax one click root method and locked s on. Detailed instructions would be greatly appreciated.
Can someone be straight up with me and tell me why no one has answered my question?
no one will give you a straight answer because what you want to do is kinda not recommended on any device.
general rule of thumb is not to ota after root. so what you should do is get s-off using lazypanda which allows for flashing of custom roms and such and follow my guide that is in my signature to make sure that it goes smoothly (but ignore the part of flashing fresh rom, you can do it on stock with just root) then once you achieve s-off you can either stay stock and wait for a rooted version of the newest update for you to flash through twrp or you can flash any other rom (i run flex 360's rom, i find it the smoothest rom ive tried) and then just flash the radios from the newest update which will give you all of the 3g improvements (which is basically all you need, you can flash roms based off of the newest update at a later time)
if you need any further help feel free to pm me at any time and i will help you out
edit: also, after re-reading your original post, there is no way to keep root after ota so if you accept it you will have to wait for another root exploit which may take a while.
Can you give us new guys a step by step instructions for installing the new ota update> I have stock rom phone rooted with TWRP. Do we need to do a factory reset and clear the Cache, Dalvic Cache and System or can we just install the Odexed zip?
He can't flash a Rom guys, he can't get a custom recovery.
Op, get s-off first and the. Get your recovery and flash a romt

Yes, you could do that. But why? Just flash the full, rooted stock ROM.
Ok so I am new at root on this phone. I have root with s-off and stock rom. Can some one post steps for us new guys to the new ota that is out using "Stock Rooted Odexed 1.22.651.3"? Stock rom is odexed correct?
Also should we wipe the Cache, Dalvic, Cache and system?
Do we need to do a factory reset?

[Q] From Revolution HD 6.2 back to stock

I have flashed Revolution HD 6.2 on my HTC One X+.
Now I want to go back to Stock but I don't know how. According to this Post I downloaded a file called "RUU_ENRC2B_U_JB_45_HTC_Europe_1.17.401.1_Radio_3.1204.168.32_release_299688_signed" and tried to install it, but it tells me it cannot flash my device. What else can I do?
Please help!

as always, run the RUU while the boot loader is locked. Make sure the device ID matches. If it is locked already unlock, flash your stock recovery RELOCK and try again.
This would be my 1st reply...
Can some one help me for this.
I do unlocked, flash boot, flash recovery (Failed alot of time due to not for ONE X+ version), now using TWRP to 2.3.3.0 (AT&T/Telus and INTL)
After that I want to flash custom ROM ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1987885 ( Android Revolution HD 6.2 ), and flash the Boot.img for 6.x.

To go completely to stock you need to flash backup you made prior flashing (if you did any) and flash boot.img from backup via fastboot... Only you need stock recovery more but... I can give you only from our WWE CID HTC__001
If you have no backup you need to wait for RUU

Well, thanks for your help, but it still need stock recovery, without RUU, all is impossible right now..
Any time after updates to new firmware 1.14.xxx.x to 1.17.xxx.x, so the old stock 1.14.xxx.x RUU were unusable, am I right?
I search google also cannot extract from ROM.zip (RUU) yet too...

What's my next step?

Hey guys I rooted this phone almost a year ago and installed a custom rom. I remember the procedure being very different from other phones I have done and very complicated. At the moment I am still "S-on" and running Android Revolution HD 1.1.0 (android 2.3.4)
My goal is to install the newest version of Android Revolution ( looking for a very stable rom, so I'm open to suggestions)
The thread mentions extra steps if you are coming from a non-ics rom.
Also Im considering the Energy rom. (this one does not specify any extra complicated steps)
In the current state that I'm in should I run the all in one s-off tool? do I even need that for these roms? what recovery should I flash? (Im currently on a CW based recovery)
Thanks in advance for all the help.
you should first flash back to stock.... then update to ICS... after that you should once again unlock your bootloader and flash 4ext recovery this time.. but you id really suggest updating to ICS before trying to flash any ICS roms..., specially since your still "S-ON"

To my understanding, flashing back to stock requires the stock recovery and a stock image.
I found the stock image here http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/HTC_Amaze_4G/ROMs#Stock_ROMs
but can somebody help me find a stock recovery?
