i have flashed my sensation, with Pyramid3D_v8.2.0_XE. xl VipeR lx says be patient in his post it take a long time. ive been waiting almost 3 hrs now. how long do i wait and what can i do.
I was waiting for it to finnish loading the rom. S-off and Clockwork, went fine. I used Clockwork to load Pyramid3D_v8.2.0_XE.zip, that part went good also. But, after reboot, it got to the white screen with the green HTC and thats where it stoped. I ended doing a restore of my original rom, till i could get some help.
You'll need to supply more information as to what your problem is. What have you been waiting 3 hours for?

Did you do a full wipe before you flashed pyramid3d? Going from one rom to another without a fully wiping can have an effect on the rom. If you did then once you reply to this you will have enough posts to go onto the pyramid3d thread and find better answers from the people with experience.
no, i didnt do one. But i just got done doing it and it went fast.. big thanks
Just so you know, if any ROM takes more than 10 minutes during it's initial boot, something definitely went wrong.

Hi all
This is my first post and I am also a noobie to phone modding, so please forgive me if I have written anything that doesn't quite make sense or I have missed something that should be obvious! I have spent time searching around the forums, but couldn't find anything (not that it isn't there though).
My problem is that I have just attempted to install the Elegancia Sense ROM on my Sensation 4G, but, after the initial HTC splash screen (HTC in green letters and a white background), the phone appears to load Elegancia fine.....for about 5 seconds, then freezes for 10 seconds before rebooting, and so it goes, round and round.....
The phone is rooted, S-Off'd, SuperCID is 11111111 (using abd). Also used formatter 3 on the SD card before continuing.
I have updated the RUU to 3.33 [PG58IMG.ZIP] (was rebooting a few times at first, then seemed to settle down (had Gingerbread on it at the time)) & left that on it for 24 hours. Hboot version=1.17.1111.
[/LIST]Backed up using Revolutionary.
[/LIST]Used Superwipe to clear the NAND e.t.c.
[/LIST]Flashed Sense 4 (v2.8).
The above is all off the top of my head, so I hope that I haven't missed anything!
Anyway, if anyone can help at all (perhaps point me to another thread or who has had the same happen to them), I would REALLY appreciate any help or suggestions as I am going on holiday this evening for a week and (stupidly as it has turned out) hoped to have Elegancia working for my hols
Thanks loads,
Steve.

What you have to do is factory reset, wipe cache, wipe everything you think you shouldvthen try flashing the ROM again.

Hi there
Thanks for the advice
I did all that, but now, even after 20 mins, when I powered the phone back on (after flashing the Sense ROM), it just stayed on the white splash screen with the green HTC written on it
Any more ideas?
Thanks loads...
Forgot to ask, did I need to wipe the SD card too (as I didn't do this)?
Thanks.
Help!
All,
I am still struggling with this!
Can anyone help please?
Many thanks.
At last!
All,
In the end, I sorted the problem out.
I had flashed the (supposedly?) universal 3.33 RUU. In the end I flashed a 3.32 TMOUS RUU which worked fine
I'm now up and running (with Nova Launcher too
Hello, I was reflashing a ROM (Sultan's CM10.2 w/ PMEM) but it seems to be stuck on Installing update...
It's been going for about 30 minutes now, much longer than the other times I've flashed it.
My question is, since it clearly isn't going anywhere, is it safe to remove the battery to start over again? I don't want to brick it.
(Not sure what went wrong, I think my SD card's going bad. I've flashed a few roms before successfully including this one, and I'm S-OFF'd and rooted already)

I was running a ViperRom my camera light was staying on, I tried everything to get it to turn off. I decided it been a few month it was time to get a new ROM anyways. I tried installing Gummy Nightly's was having problem with the install read about getting a different version of TWRP so I updated to 2.6.3.0 I believe I had 2.1.0.0. Gummy still won't work, so I changed plans and want for the Viper XL Rom 4.2.0 this led to a bootloop not getting past the Viper splash screen. I thought I might as well just with one of my backup. So, i wiped and loaded a backup. This is the problem, it will load up the ROM for about 30 seconds before the icon all appear it will reboot. I've now been working on this for 2 days. I've went through each post and tried the advice each person was given, I've tried to Flash a different Rom, the Viper Rom I had when I had the Camera Light Issue, each time I get about 30 second into the Rom Load and reboot. (One of the ROMs would let me access the SDCARD0 but found a work around that.) I've let the phone sit charged for 2 hours looping. I've turn it off and let it sit charging. The next thing I'm going to try to to downgrade the TWRP. If anyone can give me some advice, something new and different to try that would be great. Thanks!
Cheers
xDrFirefly
talked to one of my buddy and said the downgrade would be pointless so, i'm trying to flash a stock rom at the moment.
When you changed to TWRP 2.6.3.0 was it the official version or the unofficial modified version?
Sent from my Evita
Recovery: Custom TWRP 2.6.3.0 w/selinux support
And what errors did it give you when trying to install Gummy?
Sent from my Evita
The install failed. I tried it multi times, and even d/l it again to see if that would make a difference. Nope.
Here is what i've done so far. I factory reset everything. Found a stock rom flashed it on. For the two hours I used it seemed to work fine. I then flashed CleanRom everytime I would open Ti Backup the phone would reboot. I flashed another ROM, was getting the signal drop snagged the Beastmode Kernel it keep failing everytime I tried to flash it. Factory Wiped EVERYTHING again. Flashed the Stock, then Flashed ViperXL (then went to bed) in the morning still had signal bars, so far had two reboots, one when I was uninstalling apps using Manage apps feature, and another time when I was in the Venom HUB app. But at the moment the phone seems to be working. The battery life is ****. In the 30 mins I've had the phone unplug i've down to 89% and all I did was delete a few apps, and move some stuff to the home screens. Hopefully it will get better with time.
Side Note: To anyone reading this. I got the AT&T HTC XL preorder. I doubt I will ever do that again. In all the years I've been flashing and messing with phone. ( My first phone I messed with was a Sidekick ) I've never had so much trouble as I had with this phone. ( HTC Tilt, Fuze and Tilt 2 never had this kinda problem ) a friend of mine whom waited a year to get the XL has never had any of the problem I've had. Just my thoughts. Thanks and I hope I won't have to be asking anymore question.
When, I have more time and such I'm going to try to flash Gummy. If I get the same error message for it or anything else I will post it here.
Cheers

I get that it failed, I asked what error you got. Your battery life on Viper will improve, just let the ROM settle in for a few days. I've had this phone since just after release and I've never had a single problem with it, not one. There are quirks that come with any device but if you do the proper research and know what you're doing you shouldn't have issues.

You might also want to try setting a fresh install up without restoring any apps or installing any social networking apps. Those are possibly the worst for fc's, random reboots, and bad battery life. At least for me that's how it is.

I will try this. Sounds like a very logical plan.

Timmaaa I just get annoyed how easy this phone get caught in bootloops. That is really my main complaint. I know it's trivial. -- I really don't know what caused the fail when I tried to install Gummy. I wiped and tried it a few time and I keep getting failed. I normally try twice then find something else. To quote Little Britain "Computer says no".

Computer always says no for a reason. You need the right recovery installed to flash KitKat ROMs, you also need to check the md5 of every ROM you download before you flash it. What I'm saying is there's no reason Gummy wouldn't install if you have done everything correctly.
I'm new to this site, if I'm doing anything noob-esque, let me know.
So I got SunShine, really happy with the purchase on the license because now I can actually use my phone the way I want. That aside, I really wanted to put Android Revolution HD on it because of the HTC Sense-ness incorporated and it seemed like the ROM that would have best suited me. All day I've been tinkering with my phone to get it to work, but no avail. Everytime I reboot after flashing, it just stays on the "HTC One" logo screen. I know you're supposed to wait longer on the first boot, but after waiting several times (twice I waited an hour), it was easy to see something wasn't working. So now I have PAC ROM on there just so I can actually use my phone until I figure out how to do this. PAC ROM works just fine with flashing, so does Cyanogenmod. Even though they are great ROMs, I want ARHD most on my phone. Can anyone tell me what I've done wrong, because I'm not sure what I'm looking for. I was running stock 4.4.3 when I went to flash it. That's what it said to have on the guide, which is why I don't understand what the problem is. I tried ViperOne; the same thing happened - stayed on boot logo. But again, Cyanogenmod and PAC ROM flash no problem.
Okay so i have TWRP 3.0.2.0 modded for multirom and multirom installed on my phone and it was working okay for a long time now all of a sudden my phone randomly reboots and ALL 7 roms in mutli rom boot loop when you try to boot them. so i erased all of them and reflashed the rom, the second i flash anything other than the rom, kernel,mods, stupid files, literally ANYTHING but the rom it bootloops again and it never did this before all of these files worked together before, so i rewrote the twrp and mutlirom and all, figuring maybe that would help, it did not. so i thought okay, fine i will do an RUU and go to stock. it says the firmware is mismatched? so because of S-ON i cant restore to stock now. ( same one ive been using to RUU it for over a year anytime necessary )
literally everything i try i just end up with Bootloops. if i flash ONLY the rom it boots fine but the kernels tend to kill the battery really bad so i usually flashed a custom one and i just dont understand how the same kernel and files ive been using for like the last 8 month now are bootlooping every time. i tried looking for new roms too, nothing works. i also tried plain stock TWRP and no mutlirom, same results, bootloops if anything more than the plain rom is flashed.
also my battery seems to be dying like a rock now, unplugged it and within like 10 min i had lost 18%

Try a different twrp version worked for me awhile ago when I had it
Thank you for the suggestion but as it says above i have tried that. this phone will not let me restore or use anything without google play now so im probably just going to get rid of it or smash it because ive been trying for weeks and NOTHING works.
only android 7+ roms boot, cant RUU, no home button menus, notifications or anything work without google installed so my phone has some weird new firmware on it and is forcing me to use the most up to date android/google play or it just wont work at all.
Update: charger port just quit working, probably burned up from getting so hot with all the battery over use, phone is officially dead now.
