First of all sorry if this is in the wrong section, tried to post in the section i was reading but stated i was not allowed due to me being a new member or something similar.
I have managed to root my sensation using revolutionary and have clockworkmod recovery v4.0.1.5 with orange and white writing.
I downloaded the zip file from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1195974 and placed into the sd card.
I went into recovery and chosen install zip from sdcard selected the zip file and everything went fine. However the phone booted up and just gives me a blank black screen while the 4 menu button lights are glowing. I press the power button and the lights go off.
What did i do wrong or have i bricked my device?
what you downloaded was a theme for the rom if you already have it installed.
boot back into recovery(power off voldown+power) factory reset, and flash this:
http://hotfile.com/dl/127201376/fdb5f53/CoreDroid_Sensation_V2.1_RV.zip.html
you should be fine. you should just have a soft brick something that is easily fixable with a new flash.
Redownload a rom. And flash through clockwork

Isn't the recovery with the orange writing the one with the problem where it doesn't charge when the phone is off?
The recovery with the blue text is the fixed one.

I had that one at first..but then Rom Manager made me update it...I haven't experienced that issue with the Orange recovery I'm using. maybe because my phone is always on and I charge 3 batteries on external chargers and swap them out.
How can I get the blue one back?
Snipes yeah ROM manager updated mine. Haven't had any problems with the charging though which one hasn't got the problems the orange or blue one.

Yeh it wont give you problems till your battery dies then the the recovery with the orange writing SUPPOSEDLY doesnt charge, for some poeple
to flash the blue one again, folow step 2 again in the sensation guide!
OP Make sure you wipe all data and cache before reflashing the correct ROM
+1 he is right!. Full wipe DUDE!

I just rooted my phone using Ace-Hack, everything was fine and dandy until I tried putting a custom rom on.
Everything was going smoothly, until I went to re-boot my phone. hearing from friends that it takes a little while before the phone fully re-boots. I let it sit awhile... after about 10 minutes I got a little worried. After 20 I got really worried.
Now it just sits there and plays the booting animation over and over and over.
Anyone have any advice?
Boot into recovery, wipe everything, try again.
recovery = Volume down and power button.
By try again, he means reflash the rom after wiping. Don't just wipe and try to boot the phone again.

Same thing happened to me when I tried installing my first ROM. Got stuck in a boot loop so I pulled the battery, booted into recovery, did a full wipe and re-flashed the .zip of the ROM. Worked perfect the second go around and haven't had an issue since.

^^What he said.^^
Hey there i have inspre4g......i'm running android revolution v.7 and loving it.Mike did a suppurb job...and the ace hack kit is great....
it's a one step kit.....but you gotta read the manual....turn off all anti virus or mal ware and also uninstall any motorola ..htc (ex....kies)....apple programs
search for the advanced ace hack kit ......it has links to everything needed on the post.......
plus if you do mess up you can take your inspire back to stock through it and start over.......it does a lot of stuff so be patient......
................not sure if i helped but any other questions.......email me ....ill get back to you faster..... [email protected]
best of luck......
link to advanced hack kit.....
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=952352
and after you do the hack and it completes.......and reboots......reboot agian...
then do your regular routine with setup......then do the superuser......then if you dont have rom manager......go to market and get rom manager and install it.....it will crank up........it will give you some info......ok it.....flash the clock work mod recovery(i prfer touch.....its a further down).....before it stops downloading near the end it should ask for superuser........ok it.......if you download a mod through it......it will basically handle itself......just pay attention......if you download through xda....or someplace....
easiest way......reboot to recovery using rom manager........
goto advanced options
davlvik clear
when finished......click go back.....
goto factory wipe.......click
when finished .....goto install zip from sd card
then got to choose zip from sd card
then choose the zip of custom rom you put on sd card.....
then install zip from sd card......
Some people find it easyier to just connect to pc and put the zip in the main sd card folder........it must be a zip......dont un compress or anything...
hope this helps.........let me know....
ALright guys, Ive looked everywhere for an answer for this and after hours of working on installing vritious inqusition, I cant get the roms .zip to show up on my sd card to install it in the recovery. Ive did everything up to this point (root, update firmware, ect) now for some reason I just cant get that .zip file to show up. Can anyone please tell me what im doing wrong or maybe a soulition!? I like hitting that thanks button!!
Did you download it directly to your phone or pc? How are you looking for it? If you downloaded directly to your phone, browse your downloads using a file explorer, I use Root Explorer, once you locate the .zip copy and paste it to your ad card.

Might be an sd card error, something to do with the larger file, the rom won't show up in recovery? Are you selecting install rom from sd in recovery? Are you in recovery?

.zip
make sure you are copying the .zip straight to your phone, unpacked. It should show up in clockwork mod.
Now as its booting up, it keeps switching from the V to white HTC screen, is this normal or is it in a bootloop!? Cause I read somewhere initial boot time will be 6-10 mins but its looking scary : /

Did you perform a nandroid backup before flashing? Flash your backup. Check the md5 and try again.

The md5 checksum basically is a string of numbers and letters, it's like a fingerprint, if the download gets corrupt then the number won't match. Look in the OP where you downloaded the ROM it should have the md5 listed. There's an app in the market you can use to check if it's correct.

Well, I'm at a loss but let's see where this goes until someone else who knows joins the thread
While the phone is off press and hold the volume down button and while holding it down press the power button.
Wanna see if you get a few options there or if it boots normally.

Go to the HTC site, and in the support section download the GB update file (.exe). Boot into hboot (power + volume down) and then choose fastboot (you will see fastboot usb in red).
Then, let it work....that should flash the GB stock rom.
Just 1 piece of advice...NEVER INSTALL A FROYO RUU if your device was shipped with GB or you are not sure with what OS it came with....you will mess it further....

I have sensation xe. And I tried to root it last night. I did succeed upto a certain point. I unlocked the bootloader, and flashed supersu and successfully rooted it.
Where I screwed up is after doing this I tried to flash cm9 without backing up my stock rom. I don't have s off so I'm stuck at the boot animation.
As I didn't back up stock rom, I can't even flash back.

Hi,
Try THIS TOOL
dead scared now
the cell used to flash red light for a few seconds at regular intervals before when charging..but now its even stopped doing that. the red led now just comes on for a few seconds when i put in the battery. nothing happens after that.
What i did before this is that i flashed 4ext recovery though adb. Nothing else
Is there a probability that the battery must have drained out?

Also when i tried connecting the phone to my pc, nothing happened. While the wire was stil connected to the pc, i pressed the power button and the red led flashed reglar at one sec intervals about 10 times and then one long continuous flash and then it went off.

Booted into HBOOT, ran update, rebooted.
HBOOT Info:
-----------------
SPEEDY XE ENG S-OFF
HBOOT - 0.93.2001 (PG0610000)
RADIO - 1.08.00.0506 (Seems the radio did update)
eMMC-boot
-------------------
Tried to reboot but now stuck on the HTC Logo screen.
What do I do now? And can you explain in layman's terms please? Still not privy to the technical stuff.
Latest radio for the Shift is 1.08.01.0111, do a search for it here, flash it in the same manner and see if it boots.

Thanks for the response.
I'll try it when I get off of work.
In the event the new radio update doesn't work and I run into the same problem, is there anything else I can do?
Also if you have trouble downloading it from the first post someone mirrored the file in post #34 of the same thread.

You can flash the full froyo PG06IMG (its the easiest to root) to take you back to stock
The file is in my dev-host if you go to speedy-root then desktop version...its the bigger of the two PG06IMG.zip files

Ok, thank you both!
So, my phone is not likely bricked or too early to tell?

No its not bricked, if it were bricked the only other option would be to make it look like a pretty paperweight

Seriously doubt it's Bricked. Did you try Booting into Recovery, Wipe Dalvik, Wipe Cache, and Reboot?

Well the only screen I can get to is the HBOOT screen, which automatically tries to update from the PG016IMG.zip file on my sd card. Even I choose not to update, my only option is reboot. I assume the only other way around this is to delete that file of my sd card from my computer...unless there's another way I'm missing.
I'll attempt that as well once I'm at my home computer.

Delete it OR rename it (ie, "PGO6IMG-radios.zip" or whatever)

So good news I got my phone to boot again. I was able to update the radios with the latest ones, however it was continuing to get stuck at the HTC boot screen. I deleted the .zip file, was able to boot into recovery, cleared cache and dalvik cache, and after a minute or two was able to boot up.
Thanks again for the help!
And now I just need to figure out this battery drain issue. Went from 100% to less than 10% in less than 2 hours
Let me know how that radio works out and if there is any changes in the touch panel
Sent from my HTC Evo Shift using xda premium
The radios and touchpanel firmware is much newer
You can find the bootloader flashable zip in my dev-host, it says which is which in the descriptions, but the firmware update is the 12 point something MB one

Get yourself Better Battery Stats. It will let you know what's going on. Sounds like a rouge app, or wicked wake lock.
