Hi all,
I just debranded my tmobile HTC sensation using the guide in the development section... Used recovery 5.0.8 (cant remember exactly) all good... Used sensation stock Rom 1.73 and really pleased with it..
Just got a question that when I first put the recovery on, the boot loader screen heading was **RECOVERY** in pink with white writing (never seen this before in any mods I had done) but then after applying the RUU 1.73 it now reads **LOCKED**.
This heading is right on the top of the bootloader screen just above:
Pyramid Pvt Ship S-Off RL.
I was also reading another thread on the development section about applying a stock recovery... Shall do that?
Please advise...
Cheers

If you run a RUU it takes your phone back to stock... EVERYTHING stock, so you loose root and s-off etc.. you need to run through the guide again as if you just bought the phone and want to S-OFF it
I didnt exactly run the RUU, it wouldnt let me.. had to extract the img.zip from it and update the firmware that way..
I have attached the pic, please advise what should I do.. it the ***locked*** in pink
Guys... Any thoughts???

Hi,
Perhaps running Revolutionary again,will revert your phone back to unlocked.
Check the s-off guide in my sig.

Hi, I need to know if anyone has tried this. I need to be able to flash my 'original' Sensation with the Official XE Stock RUU. I'm currently running Android Revolution HD and have been experiencing a lot of FC's.
I would be so grateful if any of you clever guys can help me.
I am S-OFF and Super Cid

Yes, you can.
But you'll probablybe better off with newer 1.50 ruu

Thank you for your quick response... Could you please tell me how you done it? I started the RUU and it said Unknown error before the flashing process began!?

Probably you did something wrong. Reinstall HTC drivers.

Thanks. I'll give it a go. It does pick the phone up and thinks its doing a update so it is connecting properly. I don't think it wants to install as it picks it up as not being a 'XE'. Also could I ask, where can I locate the RUU you mentioned?

Oh I just noticed, the 1.50 is a Sensation RUU, are u talking about putting Sensation RUU on XE?

Do your search first, but if you really struggle feel free to pm me. I'll help if I can
Correct, 1.50 is OG Sensation ruu, but its newer that 1.73, xe ruu. If you still want to use XE RUU, but can't do it, pm me, we'll try to work it out. I'd start with reinstalling drivers and redownloading RUU.

The error is unknown. It says it just as it starts flashing.
Sent from my HTC Sensation XE with Beats Audio using XDA App
You could try this:
1. Set your phone so Super CID (you need to be S-OFF to do this)
2. Make sure you have HTC Sync installed
3. Go to Settings>Power and turn off 'Fast Boot'
4. Turn the phone off
5. Turn it back on whilst holding the volume down button - this will take you to the HBOOT screen (it'll say HBOOT above the menu)
6. Use the volume button(s) to highlight 'FASTBOOT' and press power to select FASTBOOT mode (it'll say FASTBOOT instead of HBOOT)
7. Connect to your PC
8. Once driver is installed, run the RUU file as it's a Windows program
9. Follow the instructions
Use the newest RUU as well, which should be 1.73.401.4

Try to downgrade to older asia ruu and use revolution again. If you want the latest just use dxsia you can cook the latest ruu into a Rom.

I haven't get s-off, can I downgrade?
Can you give me some guide about the downgrade process?

Hello,
I have a very simple question, I've sort of bricked my phone. So I want to go back to the original RUU for the HTC Sensation XE (Netherlands, Europe, T-mobile)
Witch one do I need to choose? Here is the list: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1074559

LE are for Sensation XE, other ones for normal Sensation.
Check your cid for the right RUU for your device. Unless you've changed it to super-cid?

Flash a ruu with your region and you'll be ok. If you want to restore your backup, after flashing the ruu, flash back a recovery and restore

does it matter what network my phone is on, i am on O2-UK could you suggest which ruu to download? also do i do the same and just flash through Hboot?

i assume that it is your battery that causes that.check if it loses the contact
otherwise as you are S-OFF try to reflash your current fw
I've refreshed my ruu and Roms and I saw a.clip on YouTube bout keep restarting and they said put abit of card between the bk of the bat so it pushes it, done that and still happening, cud it be nothing to do with the wire trick I did

i suppose you know what is your fw version
the only thing you have to do is rename the zip file as PG58IMG.zip,place it in the root of the sd card,then reboot your device into bootloader and just follow the onscreen instructions
see also here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1459767
Once your rooted and soff with custom Rom the reboots should stop. I had the same exact problem. When I was running stock I was getting constant reboots. It seemed like when ever I did a task it rebooted. Once I rooted s off and I installed my custom roms the rebooting stopped never to return again. I still am unsure what was causing the rebooting . I'm just happy its gone. I've been rooted now about a year and no problems! I love it! I don't regret it for a second. It's well worth the effort! Best wishes
