Hi guys,

I've done S-OFF the Rezound and still on Stock Leaked ICS HBOOT (there is no Juopuntu/Bear on top of the screen in Bootloader like most of the people here have).

Could you please sum up the differences in all the HBOOT here ? What is it for ? (Engineered HBOOT posted by con, Leaked ICS HBOOT , Gingerbread HBOOT, ICS HBOOT with Juopuntu/Bear on top of the screen......).:confused::confused::confused:

Thank you :)

Did you flashed the jb_hboot.zip in fastboot?

I had that issue and did as follows:

Booted into fastboot and ran these commands in command prompt:

fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip jb_hboot.zip
fastboot reboot

Sent from my Htc Rezound

This is what I have gathered so far.

GB Firmware Info:

Stock:
  • Refuses fastboot flashes
  • Allows PH98IMG.zip flashes of anything
  • Allows normal S-OFF activites, except not via fastboot unless you htcdev.com unlock again

Engineering:
  • You can do whatever the hell you want
  • Allows fastboot and PH98IMG.zip to flash anything
  • Looks badass having ENG S-OFF in the tag
  • Extra Engineering Commands


ICS Firmware Info:

Stock:
  • Refuses fastboot flashes
  • Allows PH98IMG.zip flashes of anything
  • Allows normal S-OFF activites, except not via fastboot unless you htcdev.com unlock again

JuopunutBear Modified:
  • Says JuopunutBear in Purple
  • Allows fastboot and PH98IMG.zips like an ENG hboot
