Thanks for keeping these combo sets up to date. So much nicer than doing the RUU.

No recovery in the 2.27 stock either.

Thanks chillpill for these! I apologize if i should not post this here but I just want to make sure I do this correctly, thanks in advance. I am currently
ROM = ViperRez 1.0.3
Boot Loader Access = S-off
Recovery = TWRP 2.2
HBoot = JB 2.25
Radios = 1.22.10.0421r/1.22.10.0424r and the most current ICS Firmware before the official release.I am planning on wiping and going to a different ROM after this process so I can have a completely clean install.

My Plan is to update my radios and firmware with [ICS][2.27][stock][8-12] provided in the OP.This is what I plan to do.

-Rename the above file to PH98IMG.ZIP flash in HBoot
-Boot back Into ViperRez to make sure data in intact.
-Delete the PH98IMG.ZIP on my SD Card
-Boot back into Boot Loader-Factory reset
-Reboot into recover from Boot Loader
-Do some more wiping via TWRP "Not sure if I loose this recovery upon flashing radios/firmware"
-Flash new ROM
-Allow ROM to boot then go back into Boot Loader and re-flash TWRP.
-Good to Go?

I apologize for the long post I have done a lot of research on this, I just want to run it by the experts thanks again.

You don't have to do quite that much. Your recovery will remain. Just download the 8-12 2.27 hboot combo, rename PH98IMG.zip, place on ext sd card and boot to hboot, update, then reboot and delete or rename the PH98

There's an unlocked hboot posted that you can flash after that instead of unlocking the stock hboot, and that will allow you full access to adb and fastboot.

Wiping and flashing the rom won't hurt but you don't have to do it unless you want to or you're changing to a different rom or different version.

After your first reboot if data isn't connected, you can just toggle airplane and give it a minute.

Thanks so much for the reply! I had a feeling I may have been over doing it. If for some reason there are data/heat issues I have seen many refer to factory reset from h-boot is there a difference between H-boot resetting and recovery resetting?

I have the same setup but different Rom. 2.25 jb h boot. Can I just download the 8-12 jb 2.27 h boot and flash that without doing anything else?

lancasterv3 · Aug 25, 2012

just an update flashed and everything went off without a hitch thanks again I really appreciate it!

hoovnick · Aug 27, 2012

Just to make sure I'm not missing something, when i go to the hboot, the item in the list says "recovery" when it finds the PH98 file. This correct?

Wendemixda · Aug 28, 2012

I just got S-off but did not accept the jp hboot during the process because I wasn't sure. Now, my bootloader says "locked" and I can't install anything through fastboot. Is there an alternate way to flash the firmware or a custom bootloader like ENG boot or jp boot?

Yeah, figured out i had the wrong file renamed. got it firgured out.

scottyh73 · Aug 28, 2012

So just to make sure im good and on the most recent firmware and radios now. This is what i have

So does that mean i now have the global update and can install any new rom that says i need firmware 4.03.605.2?

I thought I would lose recovery after flashing the ph file but i didnt. However my hboot now says tampered/locked instead of jbear like it used to.

The ENG Hboot + GB Firmware package from the first page definitely does have the stock recovery in it, and it definitely does overwrite whatever you currently have when you install it, so be aware!

[GB][2.11][JB]PH98IMG.zip deletes custom recovery and install stock recovery. I just had to reflash amon ra and everything is back to normal.

You might want to PM the OP, he has retired to another device.

I'm guessing so because I flashed this then the custom hboot by vinylfreak and installed ineffabilis deus 1.2 and I was good to go!

I still visit every so often

The reason for the stock recovery being included is when I first started making these everyone had data issues, the only way to fix them is to factory reset in hboot with the stock recovery
Just use either 7zip or root explorer to take out the recovery.IMG and zip it back up
Odds are if you downgrade you might encounter the data issues still so that's why I never took them out, plus everyone likes the ICS firmware so no one complained

It was the [ICS][2.27][STOCK][8-12]. Was that not the right one? I would think my baseband should be showing 4.03.605.2. Thanks for the help in advance

Baseband version doesn't match the Rom version, it's hboot version 2.27 that came with the latest ruu.
