I followed the directions and now my phone is stuck in some sort of download mode. I can still get to the bootloader. I can flash through adb any recovery i want, in the recovery i can restore my rom, but here's the problem no matter what when i reboot the amaze this screen is as far as i can go. Even when i go to control bear now it won't go past the checking for device press enter to exit. I would be just happy going back to what i had just as long as i have it working again i'm puzzled. like i said i can flash any recovery i want, but it's stuck at this screen.

:also one thing that i've noticed is that my dowload symbol looks different then the one in the guides. it doesn't say juop on the top of it like the other guides i've seen.

sounds like the wire trick wasnt performed right that time, just kill off the program and try again, took me like 20 tries to get it right, downside is that your stuck with the arrows until you get S-off, and dont worry, mine never said juonunput either

so when the wire trick is done properly does it go to straight to the download thing again or to the htc thing?

It goes back to the boot logo then to the download screen. the program window should read "taking first beer, second, third, fourth, fifth, one more, that should have worked..." or something like that (don't remember what it says exactly)

you need to finish the process to have the JB Hboot, you can do so by flashing the J_Hboot file that comes with the unlock. to flash it renamed ph85img.zip and put it on your SD then reboot to bootloader.:)

change the jb-boot.img or the jb_hboot.zip to the ph85img.zip? i tried with the zip file and it doesn't recognize it when i boot up.

dont bother with the jb_hboot.zip or image, thats only if you miss the last step, if you mess up the wire trick (it gives you a couple attempts) it'll wait for a bit then it'll reboot the phone and give you a "still sober" error after looking like its working, it even does the "first beer...." sequence, if you get the trick right the phone should reboot and show the "waiting, found device" then go into the "first beer...." sequence

at the very end itll ask you if you want to flash the jb_hboot, hit yes!

well i had trouble with the wire trick and at the end my phone got S-off but never asked me to install the JB Hboot and running control bear again didnt install the Hboot. kept telling me the phone already had S-off, thats why I flashed the Hboot that way.

you have to reboot the phone into bootloader.

    it almost seem like you need to kill ADB.exe first, then update your SDK and try again.

    I tried updating to the official ICS with S-ON but I wasn't getting anywhere. After multiple attempts with the wire trick I updated my hboot and now have S-OFF. I renamed the PH85IMG_RUBY_ICS_35_S_TMOUS_2.14.531.1_Radio_1.14.550L.17DC_30.78.550L.15_release_257469_signed.zip to PH85IMG.zip placed it on my sdcard and it finally updated correctly. For everyone trying this for the first time:
    1. Unlock your bootloader via HTCDev
    2. Flash some sort of recovery
    3. Root your phone and confirm it's rooted
    4. Download ControlBearRelease_ruby_GB_WIN.zip (Install it in a directory with adb.exe, fastboot.exe etc..)
    5. Run controlbear.exe as administrator (the wire trick took me quite a few attempts so don't be discouraged.. it does work)
    6. Update your hboot to Juopunutbear's (it will ask you if you want to after you do the wire trick successfully)
    7. Rename the rom to PH85IMG.zip and put it in the root level of your sdcard
    8. Power off your phone. Battery pull works the best in case you have fastboot enabled
    9. Restart your phone by holding the volume down buttong and the power button at the same time
    10. Your phone should automatically start updating..

    One thing I did note is that my bootloader is now locked again but my phone is still S-OFF. I'm currently updating and installing some apps. I'll post back any bugs I find.
