[Q] QuestionS asked by a Noob - HTC Sensation

Hi
Sorry i m a noob.
This android flashing is very new to me. I use to own HD2 and flash by using hardSPL and recovery.. but this is total new to me
Pls BEAR with my with my noob question..!!
my first question is
i want to install battery percentage..
SO i should Installing S-off, ClockWork, Root, SuperCID & S-on
what if i do wrong? will my mobile brick? Unlike WM, it had hardSPL to protect.

U don't need supervisor and u don't need to make it s-on again.
Pretty much s-off, clockwork mod, root it, then flash what u need in clockworkmod.

Oh thanks what is the s-off and on?

Security off, security on. Put simply the flash memory where the system files are stored is read only when security is on. In order to modify the system in any way (to root or flash a custom rom for example) it is necessary to set security to off. Security off makes the system flash memory read/write.
Hope this makes sense

No not Really, unless you want to flash a ROM different from your region.
Super CID can be done later on also.

You only need to worry about CID if you need to run an official RUU from a different region. You don't need to mess with CID if you're just flashing cooked ROMs.

oh!!! thank!! haah

Hey, this might be stupid, but isn't it just waaaaaay easier to rum gingerbreak (or even flash a SuperUser.zip)? If you'e flashing a ROM and want something close to stock, why not flash LBC mod? What's the need for "Pre-Rooted Stock ROMs" ?

some ppl just want latest stock room with root permission
thats it.
but if u want to use gingerbreak u need to have hboot 0.98.0000 to get root but new stock roms are 0002 and up..basicly u need to downgrade ur new build to old one then root..with this one u can easly flash via recovery...

Can i use your pre-rooted rom for downgrading.
Hi Adidas108 ,
My Bootloader version is 0.98.0002 i wanna downgrade it to 0.98.0000 for this purpose can i use the pre-rooted rom of yours to get a rooted mobile and then proceed with changing of the version number and flash another rom with 0.98.0000 bootloader.
P.S Already tried to downgrade and ROOT mobile but Gingerbreak is not working for me , I think the exploit is fixed in my version

to be honest i'm not sure do u need to be rooted first to flash .zip's because i personaly never try this roms on non-rooted phone.In theory if u have clockworkmod recovery u can flash .zip files.
Gingerbreak will not work until u get hboot version 0.98.0000
To go back to previous hBoot download and flash as normal. It worked for me. Let me know how you go on for next step.
Before you do anything install HTC sync, boot your phone normal, connect with USB and double click what you just downloaded. Atleast it will give you previous HBoot.

Hi, Install HTC sync from HTC site about 150MB or around , because when you run RUU and software puts your phone to fastboot, it looks for drivers and if the drivers arent there you will get error. Also try Thi version of RUU. One of them should work and put your phone to previous HBoot. After that do complete uninstalltaion of HTC sync and install drivers from Alpharec's site and do the rest. I hope that you are successful.

Stupid question, what are the disadvantages of using a Europe or Asia ROM in Australia? Previously have only flased on the Telstra WWE ROMs since that is what came stock, but want to try the newer Europe 1.47 ROM with newer radio.
I know it will remove the telstra branding, e.g. boot screen and apps. But that's ok cos I actually WANT that. Just wondering the downsides. E.g. will my Australian APNs all disappear? Will the language locale be wrong or something?
Does this includes HBOOT?
I`m S-OFF with Alpharef, so i have this 6.28.... something HBOOT Version.
When i try to install this ROM, did it flash the HBOOT back to 9000?
I have a T-Mobile branding, that`s why i want to install the clear HTC stock rom.
Hi, any chance of a mirror for RUU_Saga_HTC_Europe_1.28.401.1_Radio_20.28b.30.080 5U_38.03.02.11_M_release_177977_signed_prerooted as its not on rapid anymore

[Q] Sensation Stock ROM on Sensation 4G is it possible ?!

Hi,
I bought HTC Sensation 4G from US 3 days ago.. The device works flawlessly.. But the problem is it does NOT support my language !
Since the International Sensation and Sensation 4G is almost identical .. My question is it possible to Flash international sensation RUU ROM on the Sensation 4G without bricking the device ?! Or doing that will brick it ?!
BTW It's S-OFF already ..
Waiting your replies ..
Thnx in advance
Since it's S-OFF, you're going to have to perform super-cid so that you can flash an international RUU. There's a stickied guide in the Android Development section that tells you how to obtain S-OFF, root, and super-cid. You might want to get another opinion, because I've never had to do it, but from what I've gathered, it's that easy.
1) S-Off and Root (Seems like it's already done, rooting isn't totally required for this)
2) Change CID to super-cid (a bunch of ones)
3) Run RUU.exe and enjoy

its best that you dont update with the official RUU because it changes your bootloader. If you dont want S-OFF, read this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1525100 or if you want be S-OFF (best choice): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1318919.
If you want be S-OFF update your HBOOT with one of this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1679338 or http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1236890
And finally you can flash a custom rom in my opinion the best are Fallout (sense 4A), Virtuous (full sense 4) and ICE DS (sense 3.6). All of this roms are android 4 (Ice Cream Sandwich). I hope that i will explain well.
Happy flashing!!!!

If you want official RUU, read this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1858508 but is better a custom ICS ROM because you can overclocking and undervolting with amida's kernel and get more optimizations and tweaks. :good:
mine is S-on
You can flash the pg88img.zip directly if you want only the Ruu, flash it in bootloader. You can find it in mine last post.

Ok, then install a recovery over fastboot and then make a full wipe in you recovery ( 4ext is a great choice) and flash a custom rom with ics. If you want only ruu, put the pg88img.zip in the root of your sd and flash it through your bootloader. Ok?

Enable smart flash in recovery...
If u r trying to flash ics Rom then u required ics firmware 3.33
Sent from my Sensation using xda app-developers app
If you don't already have it please download 4ext recovery. Then you will be able to enable smart flash. Because your S on you must use smart flash every time you flash a rom. Also make sure you have correct firmware as said in above post. Because your s on you must flash a bit differently than us with s off. I'm going to send you a link to flashing roms with s on. Skip down to where it talks about smart flash. This link will also show you how to permanently enable smart flash. Hope this is helpful.

Hi,
What ROM did you try to install?
You are on a GingerBread firmware.
You cannot load any ICS ROMS.
And you cannot change firmware or radio with s-on.
S-off for you would be possible using Revolutioary.
