Edit: I think I found the RUU I'm looking for... http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1365654 I'd like to re-ask which one to get as I heard bad things about 3.14 but I didn't even know 3.13 existed.

Also, is that really as easy as the PH98IMG.zip file in hboot? I thought it was more involved than that...

I personally am on 3.11, others say good things about 3.13, but that's a minority group. Rezrom is based off 3.11. And yes, pretty much that easy, download the RUU, stick on your sdcard, Must re-lock your bootloader, and use the adb fastboot command. bla bla all the instructions are there.

---------- Post added at 04:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:39 PM ----------

alright. everything seemed working fine until the final boot up of the rom. i wiped data/cache, flashed the rom, flashed the kernel because i am s-on, and it doesn't seem to go past the loading screen for rezrom. the "hacked successfully" bit.

any ideas?

Once you flash, you must go back in and flash the .zip that is now on your sdcard, it will run a script, drop a ph98**.img on your sdcard, reboot you into bootloader, then press vol+ to start update boot.img.

---------- Post added at 04:43 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:41 PM ----------

I followed that when I first installed the Rom, believe me. Is there any reason it might not have sticked?

It should reboot "ATLEAST" twice before it is done. I've flashed 1 or 2 that have rebooted up to 4 times. Make sure you keep pressing Vol+ until it no longer ask to. It will say update complete.
Tip: Look for the green "OK" next to every step. process takes about 15min

I see, I heard it only needed to reboot twice so I stopped after that.

alright. let me describe you my steps.

1. i boot into recovery, wipe data/cache for the system
2. i run the zip for the rom, it installs
3. i run the zip for the s4 kernel. it installs
4. i run the zip for the old firmware patch, then boot up.

does it matter which ph98**.img i drop?

Don't forget about the mainver ZIP. I forgot it and had the same problem you did, so the kernel (PH98... created by the install) didn't install.

I see. I think that's what I did before. Probably just did it on another GB firmware. It's been a while. So would going S-off first be better? Would it matter?

Re-Lock your bootloader, Run RUU using spare sdcard ( you will need it for sdcard) Or backup your sdcard and use it, but it will wipe EVERYTHING.

and may i ask how i am going to flash that? I think the link doesn't work on the main page.

thank you again in advance

Lol do a search, there's about 20 more post for it.

so is the mainversion reset mandatory??...i'm running 2.4 release and the only problem i'm experiencing is battery life...it may be because the kernel didn't install properly, but after flashing the kernel installer it dropped the PH...zip file on my sd and rebooted to the bootloader..not sure if it wrote the kernel to the system properly tho...

Did you press vol+ when you rebooted to bootloader. If not do it again. Explain battery life please.

Quick settings are stealth. Hit the verizon header and bam, they will show up.

I love um! Love everything about this rom!

I could give you the original Sense 4 systemui.apk if you want. It doesn't have the quick settings, and it moves in two separate pieces. I don't like the quick settings one either, because I like the speed and smoothness of the original two piece thing.

Lol, I dunno how people don't notice it, that's one of the first things I noticed about Sense 4 that I loved. Anyways, the .apk attached should be the original one, with the location icon and stuff removed, credit to...I'm not sure who, because I downloaded it quite a while ago lol.

    ROM Installation:

    1.
    Unlock via HTCDev or have a factory S-Off device.
    2.
    Install a custom recovery. It is reported that CWM is having periodic issues with certain code formats in the update-script. With that being said, I highly recommend using Amon RA Style Recovery with this ROM.
    3.
    • Download RezROM from the link below. If you are S-ON, download RezROM_S4_S-ON_Kernel_Installer.zip as well.

    • CHECK THE MD5 AFTER PLACING ON YOUR SDCARD. Windows user can download md5 checksum shell extension.

    • Reboot your device into recovery mode.

    • I recommend a wipe for this installation. A lot has changed.

    • Install the ROM in recovery. S-OFF users simply reboot. S-ON USERS DO NOT REBOOT. Now flash S4 Kernel Installer zip which will reboot your to bootloader to finish the process.

    • Enjoy and consider buying me a cup of coffee :)


    How to upgrade your firmware:


    1. Download the 3.11.605.22 Leaked RUU: LINK MD5 = 58b0f42defc689650ddd5128f195dc7d
    2. Rename the RUU to "PH98IMG.zip"
    3. Copy the renamed RUU to the root of your external SD Card.
    4. Re-lock the bootloader.
    • Open a DOS prompt and change directory to the folder where you have fastboot.exe

    • Reboot to bootloader

    • Type "fastboot oem lock" (No Quotes) while you are in bootloader (fastboot usb).
    5. Reboot to bootloader again via recovery menu.
    • The bootloader will begin to scan the PH98IMG.zip - This will take awhile

    • When it asks if you want to update press volume up for yes.

    • The update will make the first pass - This will take awhile as well

    • The phone will reboot and sit on the white HTC screen - DO NOT freak out once again "this will take awhile"

    • When it is done it will reboot back to fastboot mode.

    • Make sure "Bootloader" is highlighted and then press the power button to run the second pass of the install - once again "this will take awhile :)" - watch the screen to verify ok next to each partition

    • Once complete press the power button to reboot.

    • Your device will now begin booting on the newly installed Leaked RUU
    6. Once booted skip everything in setup
    7. Proceed to http://htcdev.com/ to unlock the bootloader - Unlock keys do expire so you may need to request a new key.
    8. Install the custom recovery of your choice.
    9. Flash RezROM as instructed above.
    Reset your MainVer
