Sorry guys if this was posted already. I had been searching for a way to unroot totally back to factory and the RUUs were giving me all sorts of errors... 171, 170 etc. So I finally found a way to actually make it work.
** If you are rooted and have the 1.47 update and cannot unroot with the RUU you were in my boat. Here's what I did:
1 - Download the ROOTED 1.32.651.1 from http ://geekfor.me/evo/rom/Supersonic_1.32.651.1_rooted .zip
(Remove the spaces from the url)
2 - Put that zip in the root of your SD card and then boot into recovery and flash it.
3 - Download the official 1.47 RUU and it should work on your device with no problems.
I am sorry if this guide was elsewhere but this is what I came up with on my own and I wanted to share it in case there wasn't a working unroot guide out.

Yes. http://www.shipped-roms.com/shipped/Supersonic/
the ruu does not restore the PRI to 1.40 if you have the engineering boot.
From what I can tell, there is no way to restore back to 1.40 pri.
Can someone post the stock 1.47.651.1 in a zipped image format for the bootloader??

Download to root of sd and rename to PC36IMG
http://www.mattwhitlock.com/PC36IMG-1.47.651.1_eng-hboot_RA-1.7.0.1.zip
They do not check for root and to be honest its perfectly LEGAL now to root a phone so no WORRYS leave it as is
thanks again for the really quick response.. I have a mircoUSB adaptor that i use, and my roomate has the same phone as me so i can get my battery charged.
i may just do as you say and go with the sprint stock rooted rom.. kuz this is proving to be more of a hassle than i thought it would be.
thanks
It's still void the warranty even tho its legal so save yourself a potential hassle and unroot

In the MOST EXTREME case but its highly doubtful and has been proven over and over. I for one agree you should unroot it as best you can so it doesnt allow the carrier or htc to figure out the root method etc but if you can't I wouldnt worry one single bit. Good luck let me know if I can be of anymore help
hmm.. okay.. so that zip file that was there.. i already had, and i already tried flashing that.. and it didnt work last time, nor did it work this time
i have hboot 0.79.000
i have radio 1.39.00.05.31
and i flashed to a rooted 1.32 rom like it said i had to do.
Im using clockworkmod recovery 2.5.0.1
When i go to install zip from sd card>choose zip> and select the file attached, it just tries to open it and within a few miliseconds its back to the screen i was just at.
if i were to rename it to PC36IMG.zip and let bootloader load it, it will say 'wrong or no image'
I think im going to give up..
i found this. i will give it a try i suppose:

EDIT: NVM i forgot my USB doesnt work. lol.. oh well.. i dont think sprint will do anything.. its a sprint rom anyways.. Ive replaced hard-spl'd winmo phones throu att before
arrrg.. windows mobile made more sense to me.

You arent nand unlocked just bring it back do a full system wipe
It also doesnt hurt to try again make sure that you download a fresh version of the file and wipe the sd card of any other files if possible if at least make sure there arent any other pcimg files there

The person he was quoting was implying that we should unroot so that Sprint / HTC don't figure out how we were able to root.

Umm.. to find out the root method can't 'the carrier or htc' just use google and these forums?
EDIT: If anyone gets an error trying to use the Newkidd's One .ZIP Stock RUU file and then Flashes a ROM leaving you in a boot loop and you feel stuck, just download the modified Android Drivers from Unrevoked. This helps out a lot if your device can't be seen, then just use the PC version of the RUU and let it run well, and then you'll be good to go. Thanks A LOT to strapped365. He spent more the 8 hours with me on GTalk all together, and helped me revert EVERYTHING back and fixed everything. This was all his find, I just tested it out for him.
Clear data and dalvik or do a factory reset

97 Views and 1 Reply? Come on guys, this is pathetic. Alright. I tried the Factory Reset, I've wiped everything. The problem is that in Bootloader Mode, it shows S-ON, but I still have CWM3.2.0.1 Recovery and when try to Flash a ROM, it takes me to the Sprint Bootup Screen, get's to where it says "Sprint" or where it's building up the 4G design, and then it stops. I tried to Flash the Sprint OTA that I got from my sisters Shift onto my brothers phone, but it still won't boot. Is there anything I can do? I need help please?

If it was rooted before, what I would do is start over. Did you run the RUU from the PC, or the SD Card? I'm by no means an expert. But when I've had to RUU a phone, it always worked better connected to the PC IMO. But if for whatever reason you can't, place it in the root of the SD Card. Do it from there. I'd RUU back to Froyo. Then just act like the phone was never rooted before. After that just follow the guide for rooting. Also, like I said before I would RUU from the PC via HTC Sync. Just connect your phone to the PC by USB cable, and run the RUU exe. from the PC.
Here is a thread with the RUU http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=909554
Just kidding I never RUU'd. I'm going to use PG06IMG.zip and then I'll RUU... k?
Just download the RUU. Place on your desktop. Connect the phone with HTC Sync, and run the RUU exe. It will take the phone back to factory stock ( unrooted froyo ) . Then just reroot.
I don't have HTC Sync. And he doesn't wanna Root anyway. </3.
K. I'm just gonna RUU it lol.

The way I described is going to be the best way IMO. But it does take some time. Your going to need HTC Sync installed on your PC. Just go to a Fast Food place buy a soda, sit down and use their WiFi. Till you get what you need done .

i was hacking my inspire with Ace hack kit, and it somehow froze and wouldnt continue so i unplugged it and it seems like it got bricked or something idk ? like i turned it off took the battery out and back in and when it looks like its loading the screeen fades into a black screen .......... i tryed recovering, reseting and nothing. can any one please help me ? thanks
Grab a rooted STOCK ROM online and rename it to the PG98IMG.zip.
Reboot into bootloader and update the phone with that file.
You're phone should be back to normal. Happened to me once and that's what I had to do!
ps I attached the stock rooted gingerbread. Should do the trick bro
nooooooo. i really think my phone is F***ed up because when i turn it on it goes to a black screen, and doesnt load up
Can you get into hboot/bootloader? If so, you can recover it, following ladiesgod instructions. Youll just need to get the PG98 file onto your sd somehow....using a card reader plugged to pc or laptop or friends phone.

i did what you told me, im in bootloader but how do i load the ROM and install it?
I couldn't attach the file but google for "Stock GingerBread Rooted PD98IMG.zp". Download it. Rename it to "PD98IMG.zip" then place it on the root of your SD card. Go into HBoot. Your phone will scan your sd card then ask if you want to update it. Say yes!
Voila!
would you mind giving me a link for it? all it does is send me to some post here on XDA thanks, n btw i randomly tryed with a Custom ROm, it didnt work is it because of that?
Make sure it is named properly. Very important. I Dont know what the inspire is, ice seen both PG98 and PD98 typed here. I dunno cuz i have an evo. But as long as the file is named properly, hboot will detect it
Good luck
Edit: and MUST be on root of sd card, not in any folder.
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium
Yeah, i Dont believe a custom rom will work because of something in the meta-inf folder, or having to do with updater script/binary. Will need a rooted stock ROM, renamed exactly right.

Trust me it is. There is a link in the first post that says in pd98img format. Which is what you need at this point.
My suggestion is to reformat the SD card fat32. Full format not quick.
Download the pd98 I linked and place on SD card(not in a folder)
Boot into hboot and install it

I think I know what message you're talking about. What you have to do is format your SD card.
I've gotten the same message before about a 'bad' image. Formatting my sd card and puttin the ROM on a clean card worked. Good luck!
Hi everyone,
yesterday I wanted to load a custom ICS rom on my HTC Sensation XE. I did S-off the phone, got root access. I downloaded the firmware, rom, and a super wipe zip file for the new rom. Put them all on my sd card and flashed them.
After I flashed the wipe file and the rom the phone was booting up and couldn't go further than boot screen, so I tried several times, wiped the phone and etc.
After few times trying when i went to the recovery, it gave me a message to update and I said yes! I think I shouldn't cause after that it tried to update something in recovery and it failed, system reboot and phone shut down.
since then i can't even turn on the phone!!!! I've got battery charged nearly 80% so the problem is not the battery. Can any of you guys please help me?
So to clarify, it wont start when you press Vol down and Power on at the same time?
No nothing happens!!! like i can't do anything with it or even make it work to a point that I can restore my backed up firmware etc...
device manager detects it though, but cant install the driver....

Yeah it soundslikeyou have Becker it some how. You may want to check out this thread, that is if you want to Teutonic do it yourself. But be warned I annotated 100% sure this will work on your Sensation. The other option is to try for warranty exchange or find someone to JTAG your Sensation. I can put you in touch with someone that can JTAG it if all else fails and you don't mind sending your phone off for a two or three days.

Most probably you didn't delete the PG58IMG (firmware) from sd card after flashing firmware. So each time you reboot into bootloader it asks to update in a never ending loop.
Delete any PG58IMG from sd card and reboot bootloader then go to recovery and flash the rom.
Also, what rom you were trying to flash and what firmware? what is the version of your Hboot? 1.27?
Hope it helps

yes true, i had the zip file on the sdcard and when it booted up the last time, it asked me to update and I selected yes (and I think I shouldn't) since then I cant turn on the device at all. I just took the sdcard out and deleted the PG58IMG.zip file but still nothing happened!
I was trying to flash revolution HD rom 6.6.1 if i'm not mistaken. is there any way that I can check the version of my HBOOT now? cause I'm not sure if it was 1.27 or not (as far as I remember, it was)
Pull out and reinsert the battery?
Power on while keeping pressed volume down + power button doesn't work? It should bring you to the bootloader.
It doesnt matter if you updated twice or three times the same PG58IMG. It is important that it was the right one.
All bootloader flashable zips are named PG58IMG but the content might be different (firmware, recoveries, spashscreen and even full roms etc etc).
Also, did you install a custom recovery or not? it is necessary to have a custom recovery to flash any custom rom

flashing file with bootloader is different from the custom rom.
flash 3.32 pg.. file approx 11-13 mb then without rebooting pull battery out and back in then reboot into recovery and flash the rom file and you are good to go.

How can the OP do this, the device will not even turn on to boot into fastboot or the bootloader therefore the instructions in the thread you linked are pretty much useless to the OP. It seems that the OP has hard bricked the device somehow,maybe fried the processor Blythe back to back flashes or fried the NAND memory with the back to back flashes, who really knows at this point. But right now my money is on JTAG or replacing the mainboard willbe the only fix.

he mentioned nothing about trying it with adb/sdk fastboot using command prompt,
i was in similar situation with my friends phone last week, after 3 days of searching and reading i finally followed that thread and now the sensation is running ordroid 2.1 rom. the buttons on the phone got disabled somehow. had to manually install drivers in device manager, like he mentioned that comp detects the phone. so before giving up adb/sdk is worth a try atleast in my case it was.
Well, i'm sorry for you, man
So I've been using the stock rom but I'm unlocked and rooted. I was thinking of waiting it out for the official jelly bean release but I know how slow HTC is so I decided to try out CM10 today.
I downloaded the newest CM10 mod (nightlies) and flashed it. Upon rebooting I ended up in an endless loop at the boot image. I thought, 'hmm, perhaps not so bad. Maybe I need to look up trying out a new kernel'. I never got around to this and upon doing some other idiotic things (clearing all data, reformatting the SD card), I am realizing I'm stuck. I can't reinstall anything because there's nothing on the SD card. I also can't mount because there seems to be a problem with Team Win's Recovery (2.1.7) in that I get this error: unable to mount /sdcard
Then it says "unable to open ums lunfile..."
So, I'm stuck with an empty SD and seemingly no way to mount. I am able to boot into recovery but I don't know what to do from that point.
Can anyone think of a way to get this phone back on its feet?
And once that is done, is there a clear cut tutorial on how to correctly install CM10?
I had the same problem. You have to extract the boot image from the CM10 zip, and flash that through the SDK.

But didn't I ruin that possibility by formatting the SD? I can't seem to find anything on the SD
I know I don't need to say this, but you need to read a lot through the forum before doing anything to your phone. Also, read the OP pages and first/last 20 pages of any thread. The OP or many posts would have mentioned you need to flash boot.img separate if your hboot is .13 or higher. Or, you can get Flash Image GUI from Market. I would also get a newer TWRP. Recommend 2.2.2.0. There are threads on TWRP/Flash Image GUI.
Some things to look into and read up on before trying:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1630459
If that works, maybe push "adb" a rom zip to card
And maybe run an ruu if you get sdcard fixed
As soon as possible get and keep rom and sdcard backups on pc as well as rom bu's on phone.
There may also be a stock sdcard card back up floating around or maybe someone has one to post. There was a thread with one but link is dead. Had the basic stuff the phone came with.
There are some programs that can retrieve data from formatted/wiped drives. May be of some help.
Not sure what else to suggest--you are not lost and someone smarter than me will get you working--good luck--
I have had my sd card corrupt before. There is a thread that talks about how you can re flash the original HTC recovery through fast boot. Then do a factory reset through the bootloader and it will reformat your sd card through a proprietary HTC process. There is a thread about this somewhere. I think you can find the original recovery on MoDaCo (Google it) and somewhere in his posts on rooting. Let me know if you can't find the threads on this.

Ah, thank you guys so much. I figured it out using this thread - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1630459
glad you got it--that was my first link if you used it--
I did! Thanked your post.
I now have a working version of CM10 with a few bugs which I will have to look into.
They are: Device doesn't recognize the SD card. Apps like Dropbox, the Camera, etc. aren't working because they need to save to the SD. I'm guessing that the file structure is just a little off on the device but I'm having trouble with this because I also can't seem to mount my device properly (I can still push things via ADB)

You best off running a RUU and then reset in bootloader if its still not working.

I'm new to this whole thing so I'm not exactly sure what that means
I am not really up on them, you can google/search. RUU=Rom Upgrade Utility. But, they are like the latest OS from your carrier with radio and everything. You need to relock bootloader and "maybe" flash stock recovery prior to running them. They do not flash thru recovery, you just run the ruu while phone is connected to pc and phone is booted into OS. There is a thread in Dev Section on different ruu downloads. Need to make sure you get correct one. Not sure that will repopulate your sdcard. Assume it is still empty? I was trying to pair down a stock sdcard backup I made before/right after rooting and remove my personal stuff. If you are still having issues, maybe I can upload to dropbox and post. May take a few days--very busy. Plenty of posts on ruu's throughout forum also--

rugmankc has it right and is the only sure thing to get you SD back.
Okay, just to clarify before trying this out. This will undo everything I just did so that I'll be back on stock? I'll have to unlock and root it and install the CM10 rom again?
yes--backup whatever you can first, if anything

Just to add to this, there is no need to root if you going to flash a rom after flashing TWRP.
