The Rom Utility cannot connect to your Android phone. Please check that the USB cable ant get to reedis connected properly . ERROR [170]. Cant get to recognize it

I had that problem yesterday, you should try to see if you have the right driver installed on your computer for your htc. Once you install the proper driver everything should work fine.

skip to 2:40 thats where he explains about the drivers. Hope this helps.

1) You likely can't flash a PC36IMG.zip file at this time. See the instructions in the rooting for dummies guide if you'd like to try, but likely it won't work. Once a RUU is interrupted, it needs to finish.
2) You were able to start the RUU meant for an older phone because you still have S-OFF. You were supposed to flash the S-ON tool, first. Because you didn't, it started to flash, but it can't continue because you have a newer hboot.
3) Did you ever look into evolvr's advice about drivers? That's probably the best place to start.
4) Once you do get it flashed, you're going to need to do a couple of things:

a) Use the link in my sig to flash Clockwork 2.6.0.1. This is the only way to flash it, as you'll have an unrooted ROM.
b) Get the unrevoked S-ON tool from the rooting for dummies guide, then flash it from recovery.
c) Get the PC36IMG.zip that Mr. Ed posted if you want to start over the "clean" way, OR grab the hboot 2.10 stock recovery fro the link in my sig. Either one should be fine. The latter is much faster, but not as "guaranteed", I suppose. It also might not work once you have S-ON. It's up to you.

nop eny other RUU promp a message "The Rom update cannot connected the USB cable" only the old RUU can go thrue and stop after 62% with message "The Rom update Utility cannot open the requested files or the files or the files are damaged. The RUU cannot continue with the update".

Please get a complete RUU package and try again.

Well, forget the older one. Try redownloading the newer one, and try running it again.

One question I just got my new phone from sprint and went to recovery mode and fastboot and try to run Ruu and then I got the same "The Rom update Utility cannot open the requested files or the files or the files are damaged. continue with the update". but the phone is new and is working fine. Eny suggestions?

In avoidance of sounding like a jerk.... Dude, you need to learn proper grammar... i know that there are alot of shorthand versions of words that folks use liberally, but eny instead of any(and that was just the last one i saw, it would have taken me too long to point them all out)? come on man....
