so i just put that file on the root of the sd and click update zip from sd card?

im developing a heart attack! lol. i understand this may be in the wrong section and i apoligize

boot into bootloader not recovery. It wills earch for pc36img then it will ask if you want to apply update. volume up means yes. apply and reboot. It may reboot while applying let it go until everything says "ok"

The file name should PC36IMG ......
And you don't need to go into fastboot, just the bootloader.

I put in the Q&A PLEASE HELP!!!!
Guessing youre rooted and Custom ROM
Boot to recovery from there wipe your Data/Cache/ then go advanced and wipe your Dalvich Cache...after doing this re install your ROM that you have on your SD after first intial boot sequence all the way through skipping the set ups...once done boot back to recovery and reboot from there again...this should help if it don't then you have a corrupt file...
If this is the case depending on your recovery with in your Recovery toggle the usb> downlaod another ROM and then re toggle> re flash...

Absolutely.
This is what they would do at the Sprint store if they have to reset your phone.
Nothing to be afraid of.
only if ur s-off can check if it says s-off or s-on in your bootloader
nah u shouldnt be worried bro
Are you rooted and what method did you use? What did you do last that started the issues? You could just try to reflash a OTA rooted version check the DEV forums for one .

I am doing this the most ass-backwards way possible.
I do not have a USB-Micro USB cord. I am now transferring that large file via bluetooth to my Blackberry, where I switched the Micro CD Card out with my EVO. I also lost my Micro-SD adapter.
This whole ordeal has been one massive fail.
I'm about to pass out, but will update tomorrow.
Thanks!
Edit: Limited to 5 thanks per day? Well, until tomorrow, my verbal thanks will have to suffice gentlemen.

I didn't use a RUU for OneX before, but as far as I know YES. It does a factory reset + SD-CARD-Wipe - so backup your data first! (just to be sure!)
I ruued the 401.7 which wiped my apps but kept saved data for games

[SOLUTION] So your Marvelc is refusing to flash a ROM

Okay I've been getting reports of roms not flashing right for the marvelc. So I set out for a solution and found one I believe. One issues with some roms, is that people have been doing it wrong since they got the phone. From Gsm recovery to even gsm roms. They used cmtd a very bad idea ect ect. So now, id like to present my method for fixing all of this. First, soff your hboot, then upgrade and unlock. install custom recovery and wipe all of the partitions. Then reboot to fastboot and flash the recovery posted bellow. Report back with any findings
http://goo.im/devs/simonsimons34/marvelc/cm9/tests/recovery.img
I was just wondering if you could give step by step instructions to flashing the recovery.img. File.
Download it. Rename to recovery.img. Place in the same directory as fastboot and adb.
Put your phone into fastboot (adb reboot bootloader).
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Simonsimons34 I have tried many things but this CWM actually let me flash a rom your great!! thanks so much and this worked for me
Glad to hear it this recovery has all the bugs with flashing and backups fixed so you should be good for the life of the phone

To flash the RUU, You must Relock the bootloader first.
I can't be much help on returning the phone to s-on, other than to tell you it would take an image (before you s-off'd) and some jtag kung-foo skills
Not something easy.

thanks so much for youre reply i do know some jtag kung foo skills! heh and fourteen other chinese words... this is my first ever time with an htc device! i have managed to learn a lot so far, my other device was a sgs flashed that sucker more times than girls gone wild! i am however anxiously awaiting my sgsIII
with that said, rock on with youre android device hacking...
p.s the rom i have is a stock rooted rom, of course custom kernel i added too, i can fool the uscc store upon return of the device except the phone info on lock bar ect says virgin mobile, i think its cool, but its gonna be hard to pull that one off i think lol
If you flash the RUU for your carrier it will give you a stock rom kernel and recovery so it won't say virgin mobile
