TWRP 2.6.3.3 is installed, adb is working. Funny enough, adb stops working with TWRP 2.7.

..adb sideload of Android_Revolution_HD-One_53.0 seems to work, go through the install questions, but never gets past HTC logo on reboot.
...flashed boot.img from HD-53 after sideload just in case, no change
...did factory reset in twrp, as well as wiping cache in twrp.. no change

..tried relocking bootloader and flashing RUU zip for Telus001, but failed with error, FAILED (remote: 12 signature verify fail)

getvar all

Did you md5 checked both your recovery and your rom before flashing?

Btw, you need a locked or relocked bootloader to flash a ruu with S-ON... Thats why you got the signature fail.

Didn't do md5 check, but twrp 2.6.3.3 comes up as expected, and AD-53 installs as expected.

The bootloader was relocked for the RUU zip install.. I thought I read somewhere that it was because there is no OS present, or something.

you are S-ON, you can't use decrypted RUU! With s-on you can only use SIGNED ruu ;)

Thanks, I'll give that a shot once it finishes downloading. I was coming to the same conclusion but was stuck on trying to figure out why sideloading wasn't working. I guess the firmware is corrupt or some such? First time messing with an HTC and the world of RUUs :)

Will report back..
