[SOLVED]Stuck on HTC screen or boot animation: RUU not helping

EDIT: SOLVED BY NAND RESTORE
This happened after an attempt to flash darkraider on top of att ICS RUU. Phone got stuck at boot animation for ICS roms and HTC screen for GB roms. Tried reverting using RUUs (CINGULAR GB and ATT ICS) but it doesn't help.
Also tried flashing boot.img from the customized ROMs without success.
It was a Canadian Rogers Raider with S-OFF and unlocked bootloader. Any help would be appreciated!

This happened to me... What i did is flash stock boot.img kernel first through the htc vivid tool... Then flash the stock ruu. Zip to the phone... Hopefully you made a nand backup because you'll have to reatore your back up

Thanks for the reply; Im just to report back that a restore worked!
Still baffled tho. Thought RUU is the ultimate reverting tool. Anyway another great reason to do backup!

Hi,Stuck boot anim。。。 It happened to me too
And I found the reason。Because of that TOUCH RECOVERY。
So,I tried to use RUU to restore。But it doesn't work。I flashed AT&T RUU,then swith to Australian RUU again and again。
Finally, I knew。This couldn't work!
Then I tried to change the CID。change super CID 11111111 to any CID you figure out。Like 987654321
Then It works!! But My Velocity can not use the SuperCID anymore。
and in my opinion, I think it's caused by TOUCH RECOVERY

And you‘re chinese too? aren‘t you?

Interesting cuz I was using the twrp touch recovery to flash darkraider on top if at&t ics ruu.
I didn't change cid. After a nand restore now everything works fine.
Funny thing is the backup was done in twrp so I used that to restore then used the at&t ics ruu t. After that I installed wcxrecovery and darkraider. I was indeed suspecting somethingwrong with the touch recoverycuz that vs wcx is the only difference from the guide.

This thread has been brought to you by stgeorge88. Who would like to remind you, if you are going to mess around on a phone after rooting, make sure you do a nandroid backup before messing with anything and finding out the RUU will not help and then finding out your screwed.

I saw this thread just now. I own a HTC Velocity 4G. The Aussie version of the vivid and the same thing happened to me but the problem for me is that i am not S-OFF. When i try to use the RUU i get error 140 bootloader error. I don't understand the problem could one of you guys help me out. Walk me through what i should do.
Many thanks

I don't think you're going to be able to use an ruu to solve your problem because your rom version is higher than the ruu, but since you're s-on, when you flash a rom, do you flash the boot.img before in fastboot because some roms boot without the boot.img flashed, but others won't. If that doesn't work you'll have to s-off because your phone won't let the ruu work for a downgrade.
fastboot flash boot boot.img
Just in cases you decide not to revert to stock

I'm a little wiser now and I'm sure I'll have to go s off to get any further.
Thanks for helping.

Bell ICS OTA zip file

I managed to pull out the Bell ICS OTA from my SDCard and I am sharing it for you guys!
I hope this can fix the annoying fact that we can't use stock WiFi Tether with the ATT base!
Link here: --> OTA_HOLIDAY_ICS_35_S_BM_3.38.666.2-1.65.666.3_release_255932wpop8vtj8tts3ou3.zip <--
I also have a plain Bell ICS nandroid (RUU'ed, directly OTA'ed then Backed up) if you want me to upload it, so just say me if you'd like it and I'll push it sometime during the W/End!

Is there a beats audio belt in, as in at&t build?

Question
Sorry for the dumb question, but I'm guessing this is the flashable zip by recovery same as any other ROM right?, has any one tested this already??
Thanks!

This file is the OTA update file you will get only when you have Bell's stock GB ROM already installed on the Raider. It is not a complete ROM, and if your CID is not BM___001 it will not let you update.
There is no Beat Audio in this ROM.

any luck getting this installed on a stocked rooted bell raider?
I don't really want to wipe again, buddy of mine tried by locking bootloader removing superuser but it failed.

If you are rooted, with unlocked bootloader, and SuperCID your phone, the update will not apply properly, it will even display a message saying your phone's software has been modified and stops right there.
You will probably have to start fresh again.
I managed to flash it on Roger's Raider (to use on Bell).
I was gonna write a tutorial but wasn't sure how many will actually need it the exact same way I do, here is the short version of what I did:
I was already using AT&T ICS (already have s-off, supercid, etc)
1) in fastboot, change CID to BM___001
2) in fastboot, relock bootloader
3) in fastboot, flash Bell GB RUU
4) boot into OS, update to ICS (right from "System Updates" in settings)
5) in fastboot, unlock bootloader (you will need a new unlock bin, the old one from GB didn't work for me, follow the steps at HTCDEV again)
6) in fastboot, flash custom recovery and change CID back to 11111111 if you want
7) boot into the custom recovery you just flashed, and flash supersu package
8) profit.
That's what I did anyway... let me know if anyone wants a longer version of this.

thanks but i have a stock Bell with S-ON and its just rooted. My buddie already got ICS by lock the bootloader and flashing the Bell GB RUU, but i'm looking for a way around itso i don't have to start over.

Nandroid ??

If you are SuperCID (11111111) you dont have to put it back to BM___001. Just flash the RUU than flash the zip. That's what I did and it worked. i was also under ATT firmware.

Thank you soo much. I didnt want to install it just to get a "base". The last time I tried to cook a ROM was for a SGS, and by the time I could cook anything, the seasonsed devs beat me to it 4 times overs. Developement is slow/scarese for this device so I might have a chance this time. It's gonna time me 9 hours to download the damn thing though

I definitely will. I'm actually ripping through it now. I think I will make a base Bell Rom with root busybox and de-odex first. then add tweaks and such. I don't get much time to "play" with it much as I work full time and have 3 young kids. but keep checking the dev forum for a new Rom ;-)

anypne using BELL HTC one?

hi.
I was using HTC One with Android Revolution and I would like to go back to stock.
unfortunately I have lost my nandroid and radio back ups (updated radio to latest one)
I was able to get nandroid backup from xda (thank you)
and restore it. however when I try to OTA update or factory reset it says security warning in bootloader
researching through google I realized that updated radio prevents me from doing OTA update and factory reset.
Is it possible to get a radio back up for bell or does anyone know how to make it work?
Thank you!

Maybe reflash the bootloader with fastboot it Will Be removed warning but I'm not sure but there is no danger.
Why in fact put you in the stock?

[Q] HTC Vivid Bootloop, Unlocked bootloader, S-On, TWRP installed.

Hi,
I got this phone today, and unlocked the bootloader using the htcdev website. I then flashed a rom, and wiped, and then flashed the boot.img using fastboot. It worked fine, but the cyanogenmod nightly wasn't very stable. I decided to flash a different rom, but I couldn't get anything else to work. The roms, now including the previous rom, don't boot past their boot animations and shut down and boot again. Any help would be much appreciated!
Also, when I power down from the bootloader it tries to start up again. I have to pull the battery.
Also, it's an AT&T version. ROM recommendations are needed, because I can't get anything to work. :'( Preferably de-sensitized. I've check the dev thread with all the ROMS and links.

Make sure you are doing full wipes for each rom and also flashing the boot image.

Yeah, I do that, using the factory reset in twrp and then install the rom, and then I flash the boot image using
fastboot flash boot boot.img
which flashes it no problem. I did actually get the cyanogenmod to work, which is interesting.

You need to update to ICS first, otherwise it won't boot any JB or KitKat ROM.
Then S-off your device, it's really easy
