You can try to flash a rom to start your phone again try that.

Did you flash anything or mod the phone in any way? If all you did was accept an official update leading to this boot loop I would call HTC or your carrier and have them fix it!

OP said they had the phone S-OFF but still running stock ROM - wouldn't the S-OFF be an issue for warranty?
Maybe the OTA update couldn't or didn't properly update the radio/bootloader/recovery segment - that would cause an ICS ROM to fail boot. I think trying to reflash the old stock ROM, or a GB-based custom one, is the first thing to try. Failing that, maybe manually flash the appropriate ICS firmware/radio package for the OTA ROM (see this thread)

Doh. Missed that!
OP, you could try to flash the update manually through bootloader?

IMO you need to flash the 3.32 firmware that will support/run ics (elegancia/darkforest) .

Did these flash OK (even though you are unable to boot them)? Recovery would have notified you of the result.
If so as above post, update firmware with the firmware needed for the last from you successfully flashed. Post if you get stuck.

first you have to flash your stock ruu file. then s-on.. read the thread in dev section

Im maybe experiencing the same problem. Here's what happened. I was using internet-pass-through with my Sensation XE for me download games and saw in my notifications that there's an available system update which is the android 4.0, etc. I downloaded the file and installed it but right after i got stucked with picture of an android and beside it is a exclamation point in a triangle. I removed the batt and turned on the phone and nothing happened, nothing new. So, I searched in youtube and saw a way of updating ICS in my phone. My phone had S-off but still using Stock rom. I entered the bootloader then CWM then formatted the system, cache, then tried to update to ICS since i got the zip file already in my SDcard. After then, the installation was aborted, it says cannot fine system/build.prop or something. I rebooted my fone and I got stucked up with the HTC logo and white screen. Omg please help me. I'm crying. I just bought the fone. :'(
Some users are reporting on theyr Sensation 4G or the German T-Mobile Version of the Sensation XE that the sensors are not working so I want to tell you how to fix that.
1. You have to Super CID your Sensation 4G/XE
2. Flash this for (T-Mobile only):

3. You can check now if it works:

I have been trying to fix this for weeks since I got the phone....
I installed 1.17, and that did nothing but put me into a complete bootloop.
I put the modified version here that was posted Tessut, fixed permissions in 4EXT and booted into my ROM (Energy 3-15.12), and same ****...no sensors.
I have even installed the RUU for ICS from HTC (EU version only as there is no ICS RUU for TMOUS yet)...and then I installed my custom ROM and same issue.
I have tried the Stock Kernel and the Bricked Kernel (Bricked-3.0-v1.1-ics), and no success.
I AM SuperCID'd: 11111111
I am also noticing that I am not the only one with this problem with any fixes applied also. The hardware is functional, I have tested the chipsets individually and they are on and working, just no readings (events).
At this point I am ready to pay someone money if they come up with a successful fix. If you have a PayPal account I am more than willing to contribute a fair price if I can get this **** working!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have lost all hope on this :-(

@Tessut: I am guessing that this is the only solution we have now.....perhaps when the ICS release is finally made it will solve our problems.
Otherwise I have a phone here that is VERY frustrating to use with no sensors....

I am having same problem using Ordroid 9.0.0 with S-ON. Can u please tell me where can i download bricked kernel from ?
Until today I was using HyperSensation 3.0, decided to try a new ROM and choose BADOSP V 1.1 to test. After back-up/wipe cache-dalvik/format all partitions/installing ROM/reboot. The phone booted normally until the lockscreen showed up, then, immediately shutted down. Powering on again was met with the same results.
I did the process of wiping, formating and installing again in case I forgot something, and again the same thing happened. I tried with another ROM, this time with ViperS 1.0.1, and I got the same thing, power off after the lockscreen shows for the first time. Before restoring the back up, I tried installing again HyperSensation 3.0 and it works... As a last resort I installed a gingerbread RUU to start totally stock, and again... power off in the same place...
I reinstalled 4ext, updated the firmware again to 3.33 and restored my back up to have a functional phone again, but I cannot understand why is this happening.
Can someone out there chime in and help me with this?
Thanks in advance.

The last chance and the ABSOLUTE one, is fixing permissions.
After searchin a lot n talkin with whole lotta peep around the world, when i found no solution, eventually when i was cycling thru the tweaks, i tapped fix permissions n now it works quite awesome!
Go into your recovery (as u said, cwm touch) n go to (i think) tools section, then "fix permissions".
Press thanks if worked.
