I think I bricked my Sensation XE - HTC Sensation

I tried to S-On my sensation xe using adb and now its not working!!!
Help me.. Please
I cant turn it on even with holding the voulme down

Have you tried connecting it to the PC? Does the PC recognize it ?
Also did you run the RUU before doing S-ON?

I didn't run the RUU before trying to S-ON
But when I connect the phone to my pc I can hear a sound from my pc but nothing happens... please help me bro.. I wanna cry..

That is were you did something wrong, you had to run the RUU before doing S-ON.
You could download the RUU, and see if it detects your phone. If so then you could rescue your phone.

Im actually downloading this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1327295
is it ok?
If not, Can you find me a suitable RUU for sensation xe?

Not really, can you remember what version your XE was in before you rooted it?

2.3.4? What do u mean?
The thing I just downloaded is not going to work?

Not that version. If you updated your phone fully then it should be : 1.73.401.4
But I am not sure, This is a very tricky situation you are in. I would say you should download the newest RUU for the XE, but I am not sure. Also the link is NOT correct.

Can you find the link for me please?
Also, If you have msn, please add me : [email protected]

I can't really as I don't know what version your phone was in before you rooted it. :/

I dont know what to do..
I dont have HTC in my country Israel
I bought this from a private company which cant do **** about it..
It costed me alot..
Im so screwed man.. Im stuck with my HD7 and Apple Peel 2 and my ****ty ipod 4 again.. **** MY LIFE

Maybe I should kill myself cuz im a retard

Press volume down + power button and see if it goes to at least hboot

Mine doesnt go into hboot anymore, I accidentally went to hboot 1.20.0000 (Didn't put it off my SD) and then it kept updating and now it just gets to the HTC screen and endlessly stays there
I had 1.18.0000 before.
Anyone knows how I can get it back?
I have a nandroid, is there any way I can backup through the pc?

Try removing the hboot image update file from your SD (put it USB adaptor). Can you get to cwm?
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using XDA App

yes leaving the .img file on your sd will result your hboot to update over and over until it is removed. First time I tried it, I panicked as I just gotten my phone for only a day then but now I'm confident that I won't brick my phone unless I intend to do so. If your phone works again, I suggest you don't S-On. I mean, come on?!

I got sensation also and i from israel.
Do u want my assistet?
If yes send me p.m ill give u my mail..

[Q] HTC Sensation Stock ROM Needed

So yeah,I accidentally deleted my backup of my stock ROM, from what I know and have been reading I cant pull a stock ROM from another sensation and put it on mine. From my research I figure I'm screwed but if anyone knows of anyway to revert or download a stock ROM it would be much appreciated. Thx
Can anyone help a brotha out?
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using XDA App
Have you gone into recovery mode, pull the battery out, put it back in and hold the volume down button along with the power button. Then factory reset the phone I believe?
Yea, that's the first thing I did after backing everything up. Still kept the same custom ROM and kernal. I guess I could just break it and get a new one lol
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using XDA App
Without knowing the ROM you were on it's impossible to know which yours was. Might be able to suggest something if you haven't changed your cid yet tho

These are all sensations stock roms just rind yours
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using XDA App
So those ROMs dont work for some reason, its an application that can't connect to my phone, if there's a stock ROM that I can flash that would be a lot better. Also idk how to check my CID or I would let you know, thanks for all the help tho guys. If anyone knows of anything else that could work please let me know
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using XDA App
To check CID, make sure you have adb installed and reboot the phone into FASTBOOT. Then type:
fastboot getvar cid
With your phone connected to your PC and it'll tell you your CID
Once you have it post it up and we'll see what we can do from there
hi guys, i´m afraid that i have same problem as heist206 :/ but i´m also afraid, that i had my cid rewrited to 11111111...there´s not any help for me, is it?all i know about my previous ROM is, that i had HBOOT 1.18.0000
It'll be any of the 1.45 RUUs then but again, couldn't tell you which
Seems no one does any research before flashing their phones
if you are on the 1.8 hboot, s-off, and it will change it back to 1.7 hboot then you can re write the cid and flash the stock rom after getting the correct one.. if all else fails just use the a cid from the list with no branding specific in the file name
Unfortunately I didn´t expected, that I´ll need it...i foung only one 1.45 for Europe, is it possible, that it will be this one? a need it becouse i have to complain my phone...it is truning off without any reason...
Help
Hey,
I rooted my phone and simply forgot to back it up. -I know, stupid of me, was my first time rooting-
I am trying to unroot it, but I'm simply not succeeding.
I am from Holland, and I got a Vodafone HTC Sensation.
My CID is VODAPE17
My radio-10.14.9035.01_M
HBOOT-1.17.1111
I can't seem to find a RUU for my device....
I have tried nearly all the Europe RUU's, but none work.
I could really use some help, if someone is able to give it.

[Q] arrr help

bit of a noob trying to put a nice rom on my phone..... cant get by the first bit lol,
2 problems
1 followed noob guide as regards to the revolutionary key, go the key (all case correct ect) but only got invalid key every time. So, thought maybe it did work , i better check the hboot..... Can i get into the hboot NO!!! just keeps starting the phone every time. Yes i hold volume down and press power, yes i have disabled fastboot and i have tried taking battery out..... nothing, just loads up normally every time!!
Im on a vodafone sensation , just down loaded the new 2.34 automatically, have i done somthing for the hboot screen to be nonexsistant now?
get into recovery through ADB.. with Command prompt. its on the guide as well, download adb
http://developer.android.com/guide/developing/tools/adb.html
ok down loaded adb from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1192300
theres 2 applications fast boot and adb, with phone connected to pc both only flash up and then disapear there command box thing. Have i done something to block or skip the hboot screen?
this is turning into an absolute nightmare! my hd2 was so easy lol all this and i havnt even s-off yet, let alone recovery, wipe and rom ( ithink)
would a factory reset bring it back?
Did you back up your phone prior because if you did, your can start from there, if not and you must, factory reset should help solve your problem.

Well managed to s off god knows how lol. I found in the file I down loaded an called flash, I knew the flash would do nothing as the phone was still locked ,the cod stayed open for this and obviously it could not flash... But It the end it put my phone into the boot screen where I saw I was still on "on" so back to drawing board, now I new the key was case sensitive but I had still managed to get a capital "i" mistaken for a small "l". Only replied this when I copied and pasted to note pad where it was obvious. What a donuts I am. So now the beta key worked and I'm "off". Wahoo!. Now I think I have to root the phone and then I can put energy ROM... I hope. Thanx for your help guys. But I'm sure iv still got the hard bit to do now lol

+1..... i also recommend this and i also recommend downloading the ruu for your phone. saves alot of time when tryin to turn your phone back to s-on. ive seen alot of post of people askin what ruu they should download for whatever reason (mainly warranty issues) when all they had to do is check and download the correct ruu before flashing anything on there phone.

I had that same issue. Make sure you're super CID as well. Then the file should update properly and you can continue with the flashing.

Find your correct ruu, download ruu.exe to your pc, put your phone into fastboot mode, from h boot screen press power, you can then connect your phone to pc and run the ruu.exe as administrator. This will take you back to stock, s off, unrooted phone. Your phone will be restored and working. Then go read all of the stickies thoroughly so you understand what you are doing and what you need to do to successfully flash ROMS without the risk of bricking.

Sorry for being a noob, I don't quite get what you are saying.
Right now I'm pretty scared of bricking my phone, i've decided not to upgrade. Can I just insert the micro-sd card into my computer, then delete the firmware file and be done with it and have my phone back to normal????
Please help!!
Hi I'm learning about everything too. I can say I don't regret rooting and flashing custom Rom for a second! It can be intimidating at first, trust me I know but if you stick with it your reward will be great! Before you do anything read about it. What I did was even print out instructions so I didn't miss a step that helped me out a lot when flashing my first Rom. There's a lot to learn but everyone here is so helpful. Ask questions, read. Soon it becomes clearer and easier to understand. Its up to you if you wish not to proceed, but I just wanted to give you a pep talk and let you know you can do this! But never proceed unless you are comfortable with it. I wish you the best and good luck in what ever you decide to do.

The boot loop problem really scared the **** out of me. I guess i was being a little careless and didn't bother to check the CID of my phone, I thought I have Super CID already, but it is showing i have the incorrect CID.
I really want to experience ICS, even tho I am happy with my phone right now. I'm just so afraid of bricking my phone.
I guess I will do more homework on it before I do it.
Can someone answer my question in the previous post?
Thank you in advance

how do i use ruu on my inspire?

so i got a htc inspire the other day from my friend that soft bricked it... it whont go past the htc logo when it tries to turn on so i was wondering would a ruu fix this? if so how do i use a ruu? and how do i know wich one to get i found a hole bunch for the inspire but idk how to use them or wich one
any help would be awsome guys please !!!
ps if a ruu isent wat i need then what is?
Depends. Is the phone rooted? Is the bootloader unlocked? Is it S-Off? Is it running a custom ROM?
EDIT: and why on earth did you post this twice? Also, I'm having a rather tough time understanding your post.
ok well long story short... i got the phone from a friend ... it worked fine and i tried to restore it in hboot and after i tried it just got to the htc screen and can get past that..... idk if it was rooted.... its s-on
oops ment CANT get past the htc screen
What do you mean you tried to restore it in hboot? Does the hboot say "unlocked" or "locked" on it?

Was it running a custom rom? has an unlocked bootloader? Try flashing HTC lastest RUU for your device found in the HTC site under support and Inspire 4G. It is just for the US site...
To run the .exe file just boot in hboot, plug the phone and make sure that it says fastboot usb in red. If instead it says hboot usb plug, just press power to toggle to fastboot.
Then run the RUU...make sure that you installl the drivers first with the phone UNPLUGGED
Here is the RUU link: http://dl3.htc.com/application/htc_inspire4g_att_RUU_3.20.502.52_US.exe
[i mean i whent into hboot and the restore option. and also there was no costom rom on it. so idk if it was rooted or not but from what its doing and what people say on hear im assuming it was... so plug it in in fastboot run the ruu and it will walk me threw everything?
ok well im going to try that ruu in a little bit anything i should keep an i on? i just tried to start the iuu and when i do it says preparing setup then it stops is that normal? and it closes itsself? ill be doing it on a diffrent computer this after noon but i just thought i would try and open ruu and see what happens is ruu a program or a auto run thing that only works when the phone is pluged in
