[Q] Can somebody help me (re: flashing ICS) - HTC Sensation

Hello guys, i'm new to the whole flashing thing.
basically.. i want to have ICS on my device, so i figured if i flash
"InsertCoin 4.0.3 IceCreamSandwich Sense 3.5 BEATS | EPIC"
I'd get it right, BUT..
my bootloader is S-On, what if i need to return it under warranty, how easy is it to fix it back so HTC don't know, and can someone run me through flashing that particular rom?
Is this all i need?

Read this, it contains all the instructions you need: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1192300

I recommend that you use ARDH 5.0.2 - the links below contains all the info you need, on how to gain s-off and flash the rom.
Guide to S-off, Installing ClockWork, PermRoot, SuperCID & Flashing http://tinyurl.com/3vd9dgg
ARDH 5.0.2 ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=14192842&postcount=4
Just be sure to follow the instructions, and do not hurry it!
Device: HTC Sensation - S-off - Rooted - 32Gb sd
ROM: ARHD 5.0.2 ICS + no-sense
Kernel: Stock
Radio: 10.58.9035.00U_10.15.9035.02_2
Recovery: 4Ext Touch

Right i flashed the leaked one with sense:

Flashed the RCMix ICE v1.1 rom, and now i dont get notification sounds for twitter, facebook etc, but get them for gmail and had a text which worked..
Anyone shed any light?

Congrats.
You seem to have succesfully flashed an ICS ROM. For further support it's best to ask all questions in the thread of that ROM. That's where you'll get the most relevant support because these ROMs may differ.
You should check settings in the facebook app and in the twitter app and make sure notification is 'on' there.
cheers

I had this problem a lot when I first got the phone. I tried a lot of different things before I finally just accepted it as network issues. But at the same time, recently I have not been dropping as many calls or seemingly missing calls, so it's possible it has to do with the setup I'm currently running which is as following:
ROM - Virtuous Unity v1.29
Kernel - Unity v3
Radio - 12.56.60.25x_26.10.04.03_M
RIL - 2.2.0153HM

Thank you for the reply.
I would like to get a similar setup on my inspire. I am pretty new to this scence. So do you have links on how I can get these loads on my phone. Will fashing Virtuous Unity give me the radio and RIL or are there different individual methods for it? Also, do you still have htc sense 3.0 with this config?
yes unity is sense 3. yes a new rom will change your ril. no it will not change your radio. visit the hack kit thread to get u started. and mudknot has a good forum for beginners it's stickied in the general section. good luck

All threads have very good instructions on what needs to be done to install these things. Yes Virtuous Unity is a Sense 3.0 ROM.
If you haven't already, you'll need to start here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=952352) and Root/Unlock/S-Off the phone, then flash the ROM, then flash the Kernel, then flash the Radio, then flash the RIL (order of last 3 doesn't really matter).

Thank you for the links. Will try this today and let you know how it went. Also can I backup these stock rom and radio/RIL etc before I do this. I know you can backup the existing rom when i am on a custom rom, but is it possible with the stock rom? Same for the radio?
Thanks

No way that I'm aware of. However this (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1208507) is a tool that's developed/being developed to return you to bone stock, unrooted (ROM, Radio, RIL, S-On. don't know if it reverses SIM unlock and SuperCID). This (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=952224) is the stock RUU - it will leave you S-off but flash stock, unrooted ROM, Radio, and RIL

[Q] few questions about sensation XE

hi guys,
Im new to sensation XE and I have few questions about it.
first of all, its not my mobile its my girlfriends so i dont really have access to it 24/7 as i would like to it runs 2.3.4 sens 3.0
ive been reading through the process of rooting and different roms just to have everything clear before i start to mess about with it lol
right so.... which rom would you recommend ( very stable as she s a girl and fast cos she s a geek too ) ?
is there any other difference between sens 3 and 3.5 apart from panorama mode??
and finally, is it possible to undervolt it in the CWM or just through the setvsel ??
one more thinng i forgot about .....is swype available on sensation? i ve seen trace thing on her phone but couldnt really get it working ( only 2 mins of trying as she had to go to work )
thanks a lot for help
regards,
There are many stable Roms... Sense 3.5 is minor improvement in ui from 3.0... I like 3.5 more
there are several stable ROMs... I like insertcoin and stock by Eddy the most though most have proven to be very good and stable...
To underclock you have to flash custom kernels...like faux and bricked kernel...
Faux kernel comes built-in ARHD ROM... Many others have custom roms... RCmix and elegancia Roms are awesome too.. Not to forget the ARHD which has its own beauty...
You can install any ROM with stock kernel and flash custom kernel..
For girls i would suggest you stick to Stock kernel... I found that most stable and gives good battery life...
thanks a lot it looks like the process is a bit different to my moto defy ( happy owner ) ...btw is it the same as on moto defy that if you flash newest stock rom there is no chance of downgrading ?
so there is no chance of undervolting and overclocking the stock rom with stock kernel ?
do you know where i can download a stock rom from just in case something would go wrong??
sorry for so many questions
Rooting S-off is the simplest procedure... There are several guides to do that in Android development.. Follow the one by x-Viper-x
Make sure you are on hboot 1.8 or below...
Here is guide
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1192300
There is no downgrading problem...u can easily shift from sense 3.5 to 3.0 (2.3.5 to 2.3.4) but Only if you upgrade your hboot by flashing latest RUU, you can't downgrade that...
Just don't flash official RUU roms .. They can be flashed for warranty sake only... ONLY flash stock Rooted roms by EddyOS if you want pure stock experience without upgrading hboot/radio...
Here are Eddyos stock rooted ROM threads
http://forum.xda-developers.com/search.php?searchid=1852412
If you really want official RUU then follow the thread below... Find your radio, software version and match with files on site, download and flash it...but it will relock (s-on) your device..and latest ones might upgrade your hboot... Then revolutionary method might not work to s-off...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1074559
Stock kernels can't be underclocked ...only customs have the ability and u can overclock that too
Thanks a lot jjdoctor, i wanted to ask about RUU roms but you ve made it already a bit clearer
although the stock kernel cannot be undervolted, can I install some mods on it ? suck as 1% step battery or change a battery icon or install amaze camera ??
thanks again and im going to read some more stuff

You have a non SONY panel.
Non-Sony screen panel Desire S users lounge
If you flash the v19.3 you won't get pass on HTC bootscreen but on v20.0.1 you can boot but most apps will FC.
If you install 20.0.1 base on the instruction on "Non-Sony screen panel Desire S users lounge" you can have a fully working HTC SAGA running PACman ROM v20.0.1 BUT you won't have a brightness controll. Brightness is always at max.

Same problem
I got the exact same problem. UI stopped working and the phone.android.com. There were no problems with the 19.3 version of PAC-man. Before I tried PAC-man 19.3 i tried a couble of other JellyBean roms and there were programs that stopped working with all of them. Is it my HBOOT version or RADIO that makes the problem?
I format and wipe everything every time I try a new ROM, so that should not be the problem either.
Here are the information from my Bootloader
***Uncloked***
SAGA PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT 2.02.0002

Okay so I have solved the problem on my phone. I downgraded the HBOOT to 0.89.000 (Shout out to these guys http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2183380) Afterwards I flashed the Radio to match the one that is recommended for the PACman rom (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1672537).
When I then installed the rom once more there were no problems and everything worked

I'm sorry, but no jb or kit-kat rom will work properly on your phone. Even if you get them to boot with one of those kernels mentioned in the thread, the brightness will not be adjustable. So unless you can live with that, you're stuck with cm7 or sense roms
Check this.You have hitachi panel and you need to flash MDDI kernel.Check Flinny site like this http://andromadus.flinny.org/?q=cm10_1 for JB but be careful some links don't work so find it yourself. In basic you can get brightness working on your phone.
Check all post with MDDI and find that kind of rom.
Sorry for your problem.

Does this work just if i flash it ??????? can i get the link please ????????
Yes, as your phone is s-off now, just flash the rom in recovery (after wiping data, cache and Dalvik cache).
I really don't want to get into a discussion about which rom is "best", so I recommend you look in the development section for roms that say "sense 3.6" or "sense 4" or similar, and have quite recent comments in the threads; read at least the last few pages of the threads, and the op, to see if there are any known issues etc., then try one, if you don't like it, or want a change, try another one.

Sensation XE Stock laggy, whats the right thing to do?

Hi, I have the following problem - My friend got an old HTC Sensation XE, with stock ROM, not rooted, bootloader locked and so on. She got it from friend because her phone died and she needed some fair replacement. She have never done anything like rooting, flashing ROMs, nothing like that. But the problem is that the phone has become laggy, I am very supprised because its on stock rom and when I used to use my Sensation, when it still was a flagship and well after One X was available, it it was okay, snappy and everything as you all know it was a HTC's flagship phone and HTC would not push anything that would make it laggy, I did factory reset and such, but that did not realy help. I in other hand have done fairy bit of rooting, flashing ROMs, custom kernels and such, so I think that flashing some custom ROM would help this problem, and as I have moved from my Sensation and anything related to that I am out of the loop and have no idea what is the best rom to use or maybe a kernel. So I am asking you what to do or flash, I need something stable and fast, stable because phone will be used by person who does not quite understand tech and fast - to resolve the problem of not able to use it comfortably.
