Your device is not bricked, you just can't talk to it for some reason...

There are many things you did wrong here, the first being using Amon Ra, which is fine for ICS based ROMs, but anything newer (JB&KK) you should use TWRP 2.8.1.1. There is also no RUU for the current version, meaning the one you have, and you cannot downgrade without being S-OFF.

You should get a copy of the latest TWRP, extract the recovery.img to your platform tools directory (ie. 'adb' or 'fastboot' directory). Now boot your device into hboot and start fastboot, then connect the USB cable. Try entering "fastboot devices" you should get a response... if not, disconnect the USB and try another port, if still no response, look in device manager for an "ADB..." device, right click and select update drivers and use the HTC ones.

Once you can talk to the device, BOOT twrp, you can flash it if you wish but it's not going to help at the moment... you boot twrp by entering "fastboot boot recovery.img" and waiting for TWRP to start, once this is done, go to Wipes, Advanced and tick everything except internal and external (SD) storage, and wipe it, now go home and install the LiquidSmooth Rom and Gapps package, then reboot. You should be good to go.

I take it you got it working?

 

Thanks!

 

A common issue with the Rezound, fixable only 50% of the time though... usually requires S-Off and a full downgrade/upgrade to fix, or at minimum S-Off and running an EXE RUU (not flashing a ph98img). I suggest heading over to XDA's Rezound forum for assistance in going S-Off and following REV3NT3CH's Full Downgrade/Upgrade guide in the Q&A section.

The Rezound is a decent phone, but like most early LTE phones the battery life is its biggest problem and it's pathetic, even with an extended battery it doesn't come close to my Nexus 4's battery life and its only average by today's standards.

Do you use it on VZW or a GSM carrier?

 

Lol... No, not for a living, but I am a technician in the telecom/VoIP industry, android is just a hobby.

 

hello, pls I have a HTC rezound from Verizon that I just flashed to liquidsmooth custom. but during the backup I think I did something wrong that I couldn't enter recovery mode, but with the help of 4ext recovery I was able to flash back a recovery I downloaded and I flashed the ROM to liquid smooth. everything went well and the ROM also came with its own root access, but I wasn't satisfied so I try to use vroot again when I lost the root access. now I can't enter recovery mode and I don't have root access anymore to flash a recovery. and again each time I boot to fastboot and enter recovery from there, my HTC will stuck at HTC logo still I have to remove the battery and reboot normal. I can use the phone, but I don't have root access and I can't enter recovery mode. I have also tried the PC stuff each respond I get from the terminal cmd was "failed: not allowed". thanks and I hope to get a quick respond soon.

 

Boot TWRP from fastboot (Don't flash it), wipe everything except internal and external storage, flash ROM and Gapps, reboot and enjoy.

Remember if your Rezound is S-on you can't just flash a ROM from the recovery installed on your device, you must manually flash the boot.img with fastboot... If you BOOT recovery via fastboot then flash ROM, or are S-Off, this doesn't apply.

Also, if a ROM is pre-rooted, do not try to root with a tool, you will frequently get what happened to you. The only smart way to change root is by flashing directly via recovery... Although it is rarely necessary in a pre-rooted ROM.
