Cant upgrade to WM6?

I download all the crossbow roms and they load fine but when i actually install them its just looks like WM6.
Both SPL and the other one are 2.26 any ideas ?

Did you flash to a carrier ROM? Always flash to a carrier ROM before flashing a custom ROM.

ok giving that a try with the RUU offical tmobile rom

doesnt look like that worked either

Exactly which ROMs are you trying to install? Are you certain the ROMs are custom WM5 ROMs? You are in the WM6 forum, so I expect any ROMs you get from here will be WM6 ROMs.

ive done just about all of them is there any other reason I cant get this to work ?
ive been at it for like 5 hours and its pisssssing me off (sorry).
You guys helped me unlock the phone now i just gotta get WM6.
thanks for the help so far!

So, it looks like WM6? That means you have WM6.
Of course, you've read and followed all of the instructions on how to unlock and flash a custom ROM, right?

does anyone have a mirror for the love rom? im going to start it from scratch

so im pretty sure ive screwed myself pretty good now im using the shell tool to flash the rom and it looked like it was working then it told me to hard reset my phone so i poped the battery out because nothing else was working now it wont boot paste the tmobile screen. Also the software tells me to hold down voice + wireless manager and then the reset button and wait for instructions but i never receive anything at all.
Can you guys please help me asap i need to at least get the phone working for tomorrow morning
- Eddy

well it looks like ive bricked the device because it cant boot to even WM5 its just stuck on the tmobile screen and therefore cant connect to activesync so i cant even flash it back to a working rom.
Any help would be so great at this point because im DOOMED without this phone ... i mean it even wakes me up in the morning hahaha
kind regards,

u have to put it into bootloader mode by pressing and holding the camera button and quickly pressing the reset button until the red, green, and blue screen appears. Then you should be able to flash back to an original rom

ok so i started all over again super cid unlocked many times and started with the base 2.26 and now i cant even get the WM6 roms on the phone they all freeze at 99% (vs loading the rom with the old wm5 look).
any ideas guys?

have you tried using shelltool? I've used it numerous times on my locked g4 without problems

WiFi error's after flashing HTC unlock bootloader

Boy oh boy, I had a really tough few days trying to flash a custom rom. I was pretty heavy into flashing roms from the G1 days until I got my sensation on the day it was released. I then took a long break. Well 2 days ago I decided to Unlock my Bootloader through the HTC website. Everything went well. I did notice the ******UNLOCKED****** in the bootloader I also noticed the S-ON(security was still on). I didn't think this mattered. Was I ever wrong. With that S-On you cannot flash new radio's. I have never been able to flash a PG58IMG.zip file from hboot/fastboot. I can however flash recovery's from fastboot using (fastboot flash recovery recovery.img).
Seems as if every single rom I tried needs the Security-OFF to work correctly. I was able to put clockwork mod 5.0 on my phone, and install super wipe, and several roms, the problem I ran into is I would get a error under the switch for wifi. Wifi would not work on any of the 5 roms I tried before this one. I was wanting to give up and go back to stock for several hours. I tried the RUU to bring me back to build 1.27 and build 1.29 both were unsuccessful. I was stuck at build 1.73.401.2 and no way possible to get back to stock. And picture this living in a area with tmobile that is still using the edge network(2 ****ing g) OMFG I was so mad trying to even boot a new rom without wifi is a nightmare, took me literally 20 minutes to download rom manager. Anyway's this rom was the last one I tried before busting my phone into pieces.
Rom's I tried:
1. Android Revolution 3.6.1, and 4.1 (3.6.1 booted but had no wifi)
2. RCMix 3.5 v04 (bootloop)
3. LeeDroid booted fine (no wifi)
4. I believe there was one other I tried. NO GO
5. Then I flashed this one late last night, and to my surprised it worked.
I was so happy I almost pissed myself.
Oh yeah I tried many irc channels, one was the revolutionary.io irc channel, I was able to successfully run the rev.io tool and it showed as a success however my S-was still ON. I talked to these guys for about 45 minutes looking for other ideas. They pretty much told me I was screwed and that it had never been tested after you unlocked through HTC. And it simply might never work.
Anyway I guess what I am getting at. For anyone else that might have to go through what I did.
1. How in the world can you get you phone back to complete stock?
2. Why is this happening?
3. Why is my wifi not working with any other rom? And everyone else's is?
4. How do I go about getting my S-OFF?
5. Does anyone know if you can RELOCK your bootloader through HTC so that I can turn the SECURITY-OFF and "then" unlock the bootloader.
I probably have more question's. I just wanted to see if I might be able to get a few answers from you fine people. Help me understand what in the world is going on and how many other people are dealing with what I am dealing with.

Personally i would just do the normal s-off method as it gives you a little more freedom compared to HTC unlocking method.
My wifi is dead too, but i have no way of fixing it at all, i've got a thread called "wifi is dead" in the q+a section of the sensation forum.
Let me know if you get yours working, i imagine that if you revert your phone back to stock again and then use the alpha rev method that you will have better luck.

1. You can Relock your bootloader using HTC site but this time u will see Relocked instead of Locked
2. No idea
3. Did you try resetting your router? Works for me. Also try flashing a different radio.
4. No idea
5. You can relock bootloader on HTC site but have no idea of you can unlock it with Revolutionary again.

Try write secureflag command, just search for.the correct one on xda. Also, try flashing your RUU and then s-offing via revo.

[Q] Problem getting back into HBOOT for HTC Incredible S

Hi I would like to know if anyone out there knows the solution to my problem.
I have a HTC Incredible S. And I gained s-off and rooted it. I flashed clockworkmod recovery many times before. I used Android revolutionary's rom and Nik's Trinity Sensation XL rom before. Now I've recently flashed a new rom, which is the RunnyDroid ROM by the pvteam. ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1374852 )
Now I found another ROM that I would like to tryout. But I can't seem to get my phone into HBOOT. I always used revolutionary to get my phone into HBOOT ( they'll detect your device and it'll say your phone is already S-OFF and then they ask if I want to download clockwordmod recovery which I usually type Y )
But after flashing the runnydroid's rom, whenever I type Y in revolutionary, the program will stop working and it'll say windows detect a problem or something like that. I can't seem to get into HBOOT. Any help please? I'd appreciate it loads! THANKS IN ADVANCE!

Hi,
So the post in the Incredible S section says:
5. Pull out the battery and wait 5 seconds. Put the battery back in again. (This step is needed in case fast boot is enabled..)
6. Press vol down+power. HBoot (white screen with 3 android logos at the bottom) should load.
This is what I do on my Sensation as well...
Hope that helps.

[Q] [FIXED] Problem getting back into HBOOT for HTC Incredible S
hey thanks! That totally worked for me and I have just flashed a new rom ( CoreDroid )
But now I seem to have a new problem, I can't detect any signal at all. When I looked for the network under mobile networks, it says error while searching for networks. Do you know how to deal with that?

[Q] Bricked touch pro

Hi, i've got bricked touch pro. I tried to hard reset and flash (tael rom), but it did nothing. Phone turns on, displays 'touch pro' and software version, and then deads. What should i do?

Have you ever flashed your touchpro? If so, can you tell what (ROM) you flashed it with? If not, can you tell if this is in fact a GSM or CDMA version touchpro?

No, phone isn't mine, my friend gave me it to repair. Before flashing it had original software. Rom that i flashed with is TAEL ROM v6.28244. It's GSM version. Thank you for answer

Sorry, somehow I missed that. What about flashing HardSPL? Most custom ROMs require this before you flash the ROM. I'm not 100% about if Teal ROM does but I suspect it wouldn't hurt...

Yes, i flashed hardspl before and after flashing, and nothing. I got no idea. Phone got new software and its after hard reset, and still don't want to turn the OS on. Maybe its hardware fault?

It possible but it's also possible that you may have missed a step and your phone has nothing to really display. Need you to do this for me to check to see if the bootloader is still intact. Remove the battery, press and hold the volume down key while you hook up your device to your computer and see if it goes directly to the bootloader/multi-color screen.

Yeah, of course bootloader is working, otherwise how could I flash it

So wait, you flashed hardspl before AND after you flashed the ROM? I don't know why I am just catching these little details after the fact. You shouldn't flash hardspl after you flash a ROM. Have you tried to just flash a ROM lately; without flashing hardspl?

Yes, i did, but there were no result, so i flashed hardspl and still nothing

Okay but you need only to flash hardspl once. Unless you missed a step, you don't need to flash hardspl after you flash a ROM. It is possible that you have missed something in flashing hardspl and are now left with an unflashable device. Can you confirm that you have successfully flashed hardspl to your device and that it took?

htc sensation z710e rom installation problem?

so i got a htc sensation z710e and works fine, network unlocked.
i have a smart watch but the thing wont work on ics ONLY above so i decided to stick a custom rom on to bring me up to the required android version to use said watch.
my phone has the 127.000 hbooot and it says s on but unlocked above in pink after i ran windroid and unlocked bootloader, it also had root and cm recovery 5.2.0.2 or watever number it was.
so on i went to try and install a custom rom. 1st i did cm-9.1.0-pyramid and it just hung on the cm9 boot up screen THEN i did cm-12-20141205-UNOFFICIAL-pyramid and it goot error 0 so never did nothing. and lastly i tried revolution 1.03 and it was promising went thru all the installation buff and jargon and then same again just hangs on the htc boot logo.
before i install zip files i wipe dalvaik. battery and data i think its called.
i can still get into recovery and hboot but cannot for the life of me get a rom to boot and tbh its draining the life out of me as i havent done a android in yrs.
tried looking for odin and download mode but im unsure if htc has them?
p.s just tried a factory wipe and still the same. hanging at the htc screen.
and advice would be great as i REALLY dont wanna tell the wife i need another 50 qwid for a new phone. she wont be chuffed.
cheers.
UPDATE-- managed to install-rmk-pyramid-stock_ics_3.32.401.3-v1 all working,well apart from no bloody wifi!!. known fault?
so now i think i will have to gain s-off and then move on,,, ??
UPDATE-- managed to gain s-off and that seemed to fix the no wifi? ha,,,, but i had to re unlock the bootloader, also got supser cid
so now im s-off with unlocked bootloader and looking for jelly bean, i think ima go with http://cm-10.2-20131028-albinoman887-pyramid.zip/
hopefully il just eed to exit into recovery and flash and il be golden.... kinda glad nobody replied as it made me batter my own mind working it out

hi, it didnt boot before when u were s-on because u need to flash the boot.img after u flashed the rom. but u got sorted in the end. :thumbup:
