hello and happy new years to all.
i just bought the sensation phone from craigslist, but im trying to find out what rom was installed on it. the phone is rooted but cant tell with what? Basically im trying to install the sensation xe w/beats instead.
Can some one please help me out on this...
go to menu settings about phone. sometimes it will tell you the rom in there
otherwise if your going to flash a new rom you dont need to know what one you have. just erase it and flash a new one
how do you delete it, and by any chance, do you know the link were the sensation xe is located?
sorry...to be a pest
it really depends on what you want. if you want gingerbread or ICS or the developer. most of them come with the XE beats audio. and to do this you need to flash a recovery
read here to get a recovery and making sure you have SuperCID,Unlocked,Rooted, and clockworkmod
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1192300
then from there it depends on what kind of rom you would prefer. i would recommend Android Revolution HD for gingerbread or Virtuous Sensless for Ice Cream Sandwich.
please read the entire post in the link before trying anything.
thanks, i will try it....

Hello everyone ,my 4G is rooted but it gives me some update and i cant update it ....
what are the steps to update from
Android Ver.
2.3.4
Soft number 1.45.531.1
is it safe to update and will I be able to use the phone still rooted ...
Since you're Rooted you CANNOT do updates unless you flash stock recovery back but there's no point of updating since you can flash a Ice Cream Sandwich ROM which have much better battery,speed(on the new ones)Happy Flashing man
how to do this ???
Google "htc sensation RUU"
sent from my Sensation
ThaPirato talks about much better speed ,battery save .... this rom you suggest is not giving this options ,please point me to the best rom for speed and battery save.

tnx for reply and i wait for your answer
You should flash a bynch of roms and see what works for you. Not just what others say.
sent from my Sensation
In my opinion, I would give the following ICS roms a try.
Elegancia - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1429953
ARHD - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1098849
InsertCoin - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1198684
I have tried all 3 and love them all, and they get regular updates. But at the end of the day, it's all down to personal opinion.
So just try a few different roms until you find one you like.
If you do a Nandroid backup (which you should always do anyway), you can always revert to your previous rom, if you don't like it.
Greetings,
I have an HTC Sensation and its currently using the Revolution ROM. I want to install a stock rom that will allow me to use BeatsAudio, has the latest ICS version and Sense version. I would also like to be able to get updates from HTC directly - the way it was before I installed the custom ROM.
Can someone point me to a ROM I have to install ?
I cant seem to find what I want..
Thanks in advance.
Well to be able topping you in the right direction you need to post the following.
Are you S-off or HTC Dev unlocked?
Are you running Gingerbread or ICS right now.
Are you Super CID, and if not who is your carrier?
it is always there in Sensation Android Development section.
I am a newbie myself but I advise you to use the search button before asking next time.

HTC Sensation *STOCK* ROMs by mike1986
Just started learning rooting about few days ago, I'm planning to root my Sensation 4G this week. I have decided to use the Android Revolution HD as my custom rom. But when I went to download it, there was 3 versions of it. Android Revolution HD 6.7.2, Android Revolution HD 6.7.2 XE with Beats Audio, and Android Revolution HD 1.2.2 T-Mobile. Could someone tell me the difference between those.
Also I'm kinda confused with this thread here. The part where it says "Download firmware for HTC Sensation (PG5813000, PG5811000 & PG5810000) & HTC Sensation XE (PG5813001)" with lots of downloads is where I don't get it. Do we really need to download the RUU, most video that show how to root the Sensation 4G doesn't download it, all they download is this PG58IMG.zip which I don't know what it is, could someone also explain that. Below the thread it says "2. It's recommended to flash it before flashing custom ROM based on proper RUU!" What I want to know is what is that and what good is it to flash the RUU before flashing a custom rom. Thanks.
I have the same questions. I flashed to the Revolution HD with Beats on my sensation and now the WIFI does not work and the 4G is showing as H and is very very slow. Did I do something wrong?

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.
