[Q] Help, can't get past bootloader - HTC Rezound

I had a unlocked bootloader, rooted rezound running AOKP JB rom. Now after trying to flash a differnet kernel (stupid me) I can't get past the bootloader screen. I was able to relock my bootloader but now on Hboot screen it says ***tampered*** *****relocked**** and ****security warning**** I am completely stuck. Am I SOL or is there a chance to fix this? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Get back into fastboot. Unlocked your phone. You can just go back and flash the boot.img that was on your original rom

You s-on or s-off?
Might as well install the RUU again...

You won't be able to flash a rom or kernel if your s-on and locked. The only thing you can do is try and unlock bootloader or run RUU and restart from scratch

I can't unlock boot loader. Went thru the process and it said the token was too long. So I guess I'll look for the RUU and give it a go.

At what point did it say that? When you are trying to get it from the HTC site? If that's it you are just copying too much. Make sure you don't copy any extra characters at all.
If it's when you are flashing the unlock token bin file then I agree that you should just run the RUU and get back to fresh stock then try again.
Use the RUU that is the .12 version rather than the global leak, unless you have already run the global leak one, if you want to be able to take the newest OTA.

I tries to flash ruu from my pc. The command prompt said “access denied"

And your bootloader is locked? You talked about getting the unlock token, did you unlock it again before RUUing?
It needs to be locked to run the RUU.

Try this:

fastboot flash zip {nameofruu}.zip
Or place it on your sd card and flash it in hboot
If it's an exe file you need to double click on that on your pc while the phone is connected.

Do you have to relock rezound to get the radio updates from HTC?

Running Cleanrom right now and would like to install the updates for the radios from HTC..could i just flash stock RUU or do i also have to relock?

Yes you do have to relock.
I did not relock my phone and it updated without a problem. Just went back to stock rom and stock recovery then checked system updates and was suprised when it worked since everyone was saying that you had to relock.

Can you get the radios from a ROM that has them baked in, or is that not how it works?

I've attached what you need, courtesy of MrSmith317. If you ever do need to relock you'd just need to get another unlock token from HTCdev to unlock again.
But you will most likely end up needing this for some sort of flashing at some point.
I think you only have to relock to run the ruu. You shouldn't have to with the updates since they are flashed in the stock recovery. The ruu being flashed through hboot requires relock.

So you have an unlocked phone and you want to get the OTA, correct? What ROM and kernel are you running?
That error you got, was that trying to run the RUU? Which one? 1.x or 2.x?
running cleanrom ICSE 2.3
kernal 3.0.13-gaf15497-dirty
i flashed stock recovery, relocked device and was stuck at hboot..couldnt get past it rebooting or anything..unlocked device and tried running the RUU exe..started up but error out saying it couldnt complete and my screen was left on HTC till i pulled battery...

What version RUU did you use? 1.x or 2.x? Did you try running it while the phone was locked? It needs to be locked when you run RUU. But you also can't go back to an older mainver and some ICS ROMs are on 3.x
Also can you check what mainver your phone is on? In fastboot type:
fastboot getvar all
running 2.0.1 and wrong RUU i guess since its 1x
Yeah, you need to run 2.x RUU. Get it from link in this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=22045045&postcount=58
That should fix you up. Then after you run that and get the OTA, unlock, flash Amon Ra (there's a new version posted to that thread today), go to the developer menu in Amon Ra and install su and you will be stock OTA rooted.

Firmware and boot loader ?'s

OK so I used the bootloader to flash the 3 option in Haus's thread and every thing is working. But....
Now on the bootloader screen it says locked tampered then S-off.
I was told the locked was just wat it was saying and didn't matter.
So do I have a locked boot loader? And does that even matter for anything or was it just required to get root plus S-off?
Did I mess up getting the newest hboot from the firmware? I was told I needed it to run meanbean.
Sent from my EVO using xda app-developers app
I'm not sure what u flashed but it sounds like you flashed the whole thing which means you have stock recovery now. Either fastboot flash recovery image or download thru goo manager.
Once you have a custom recovery installed your all set. Don't worry about the locked on your bootloader

You should have flashed the first file the one with no kernel,hboot, or stock recovery that would have updated everything you needed to be updated
So did I mess anything up? I was able to flash mean bean without any issues.

keep trying to flash your token (maybe use a different usb port) make sure that the file is in the right location so fastboot can access it and its case sensitive and remember it might take several tries
Code:
fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin

Can you boot into a rom as normal, or are you stuck at the bootloader screen?
If you're stuck at the bootloader screen, then I would find a way to unlock your bootloader (try HTCdev, hopefully it will still work) and then flash a recovery, a rom and then finally a kernel. You might need to run a stock RUU before you can re-unlock your bootloader.

Your bootloader needs to be unlocked to be able to flash a recovery; it must be locked to run a RUU. If you don't have the stock recovery on there then the only way I can see forward is unlocking with HTCdev.
If it's failing, you need to post some output as to why. Copy and paste the error text, or better yet, take a screenshot and post it here and people will be able to help you more.

When you originally in locked the boot loaded you got an e mail use hysoons tool kit and make a new folder in your c drive rite click and rename it to the unlock .bat paste that into your folder run the unlock boot loaded ommand and boom warning all nandroid back ups will be lost the last Rom you were on will be what pops up as a clean slate

Why are you wasting your time when you don't even understand the basics? This is another example of people that jump straight in without reading. Then expecting the community to clean there mess up......
For your bootloader to read "relocked" you must of unlocked and locked the bootloader atleast once. Why can't you remember how you did it?
Your best bet it to search your email for the unlock code HTC sent you the first time you unlocked the bootloader, download and flash it, then flash a custom rom.
Good luck

[Q] SoftBricked Droid DNA. Please Help.

Hi I am needing some help with my phone. i soft bricked it a while back and it has been stuck in a bootloop ever since.
Important things to know.
it is ***locked***
monarudo pvt ship s-on
hboot-1.33.0001
radio-1.01.04.0308
OpenDSP-v6.120.274.0114
eMMC-boot
okay so i have tried using the RUU on my phone but it is giving me the error 158 because it says i don't have to correct ruu for my phone. secondly i get the FAILED (remote: 12 signature verify fail) error when i try to flash anything in in fastboot. so everywhere i have seen someone post about this they are told to try to go to s-off using moonshine but the problem is that my phone will only connect to fastboot and not to bootloader so i can't use ADB which you have to use to work with moonshine. if i could please get some help on this it would be greatly appreciated.
First thing first I'm guessing u have no ROM on your phone. Sense u in a bootloop?

Are u sure it's never been rooted with a custome recovery or did this happen while trying to root/soff? Because what ur saying doesn't add up. I had a similar problem awhile back while trying to flash a Rom. It kept failing over and over. On my last attempt the recovery crashed and somehow became corrupt. So I was stuck with hboot and had nowhere to go. I ended up fastbooting a new recovery & downgrading hboot to the one compatible with the only RUU available.
You need to downgrade the hboot and then RUU. Then you can moonshine.

like i said i am unsure on the exact details. it just doesn't make sense that i can't use my bootloader and then my fastboot commands are pretty much useless.. if i only had a way to flash in a recovery or the stock hboot it would work
Your only option is to achieve s-off. You can't do anything in fastboot without it. Until then your SOL
