So i was trying to go from a stock rom to the Android Revolution HD 4.0.3 with sense 3.6 and beats audio. So firstly I S-OFF and that worked fine. Then i downloaded http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1412618 (the Firmware from 3.24.401.1 RUU rom) and then i put it on the sd, ran into hboot and then it updated my phone but then said it failed. Now it's stuck on a reboot loop. Does anyone know how to fix this problem? Sorry i'm new to this phone but i have done previous hacking of a Sony Xperia X10 so i thought it was also as simple.
More information: I just got this phone and im from Australia, and i think it's on the stock gb firmware. Forgot to mention my phone is a Sensation XE

make sure to check the MD5 checksum of your firmware file...see if it matches the one provided by the uploader
a little suggestion if you decide to flash fw 3.24...try ARHD 6.2.1 it's doing fantastic on my sensation 4G

Can this fix my reboot loop problem? It just hangs on the HTC logo back and forward then repeats. However i can get into recovery.
Also when i try to step down my hboot (1.27) all i get is an error Model ID incorrect, updated fail!
Everything i try to do just resorts in a Model ID incorrect, update fail! scenario.

It hangs because you have an ICS rom installed BUT you need the new firmware for it.
It says Model ID error because you aren't SuperCID. I believe you have 2 options... 1) find a firmware that matches with your model or 2) supercid. There's also another thread that will further help you with that. I would choose to SuperCID my phone and then flash the firmware and you'll be set.

Sorry but how do i find the model of my phone. All i actually know and says on the box is HTC Sensation XE with Beats Audio Z715A. My Carrier is Vodafone Australia.
You need to be superCID. it says so when you read the requirements of the Rom.

Use one of the firmwares in this thread as they do not need supercid
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1459767
Also ICS firmware will only boot with ICS roms, so install the appropriate rom afterwards.

Well if you can get into the bootloader you should be able to supercid with adb from there.
Follow the supercid instructions here;
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1192300
you can also flash the testrom. the RUU i mean.
then downgrade/upgrade to the revo firmware if you really want it,
or then instal a recovery and flash another rom of choice.
everyone says the supercid is requird, this is not tru.
there is a firmware that contains multiple cid.
check your own cid and mid, if its supported, if not edit
Thanks for everyone's help the supercid worked and then i got to install recovery, but now i have a new problem. So i then installed the Android Revolution HD firmware for my device after i used super wipe and it successfully installed but now it hangs on the beats audio screen what does this mean?
Hi mate go to the market and download CID getter and open the app at the very top it will tell you your CID or model number then come back to xda developers and go to the development page there u will noonproof update click on that depending on your phone model if you have a unbranded sensation for example a Vodafone or UK version go down and download the firmware that matches the CID that u got for cid getter and download it then using es file manager go to download folder ino es file manager click on the update file and click move to then click ok turn your phone off while holding the volume button press the power button and your phone will be updated good luck mate

As far as I know, your hboot version cannot be 1.20 when you've "revolutionary s-off'ed" (is this correct?)

hboot 1.20 doesn't remove s-off, and hboot 1.20 can't be s-offed
RCMix ICE v1.1 doesn't have hboot 1.20 so you have obviously flashed a RUU or the new firmware did you install busybox, su, recovery, etc as required if you flashed a RUU no root no flashing new roms

Alright, I will try a different SD card. Hopefully this works. I am doing it correct though right? Just copy that file to the SD card and reboot into Hboot and it should just prompt me to update? I don't have to do anything before transferring the file.

HI ALL
I have a massive problem with my htc sensation xe. My phone is a t-mobile sensation xe.This is what i have done to it i unlocked the boot loader from the htc dev website. I then rooted it using super click one. I then installed clockworkmod recovery. I then tryed to flash a leedroid rom to my phone and my phone would always restart after the htc logo.
I tryed to flash many other roms but same result, phone would either freeze or continuosly reset.
Can somebody help me please. I have attached a picture of my recovery screen as this is the only thing i have access to.
Thanks In Advance
And what happens when you choose an option from there?
try
fast reboot
factory reset
Try going back to the thread for you rom read, reread and reread agan,
Then follow the instructions 100% and as if by magic........................
I have been assisting this person on the sensation forum he was originally rooted with ship s off however he installed a Rom and apprantly his hboot has changed.
He has tried to change Rom but his phone is boot looping with the HTC logo and as you can see he his picture he is back to ship on.
I provided a list of ruu but he's phone fails while attempting to run application.
He has tried resetting phone through recovery and clearing data,cache,formatting system.
He explained he tried to root following the current 4 methods but still no sucess.
I advised him to seek help on here.

I done as you told me
1.)I went into recovery and clicked factory reset
2.)I then clicked wipe cache partition
3.)I then clicked wipe davlik cache
4.)I then clicked fix permissions
5.)I then tryed to install the shipped t-mobile rom
It did not work
6.)I also tryed to install another custom rom same problem. The phone would hang on the htc logo boot up screen.
I have included pictures to make it easier to assess the problem
I don't think flashing a Rom will get you back to s-on. From your pictures I noticed you're trying to downgrade from ICS to GB, no? If you have the ICS firmware (3.06), how come you have hboot 1.18 s-on? Either there's something missing in your explanation or you really have messed up the software. Anyway, why don't you cross referenced what you've done with this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=16125079

2.)I used super click one to root my phone and gain super user access
3.)I then installed rom manger and clockwork recovery to my phone.
4.)I then used rom manger to download leedroid rom for my phone and installed it.
This is were it all went wrong. My phone would continuosly restart and not let be do anything. If i installed any other custom rom through recovery myphone would freeze at the htc screen untill i removed the battery.
Somebody please help i do not want to send it into htc and pay £60 odd pound
Have you tried to select fastboot from hboot, connect to a pc and run the ruu from there?
I have run into the same problem with Sensation 4G (TMO).
Here's what I did:
1. Tried revolutionary to gain s-off - and it failed
2. Unlocked phone with HTC (so my hboot scren says "Unlocked")
3. Flashed recovery
4. Flashed Android Revolution HD™ 6.5.1 | ICS |
Now stuck in a boot loop (with HTC logo on white background). Tried multiple RUUs, none of them worked (including the latest one from T-Mobile).
No luck resurrecting device so far.
weird. ive used revolutionary 3 different times to gain s-off and have never had it fail. i would give it another shot and be extra careful and follow the instructions to a T.

I've tried firmware from thread you are suggesting (cid and mid matched). Hboot does recognize the zip on sd card, parses it and takes me to normal menu. Nothing else happens. I verified that my cid and mid match androidinfo.txt in zip file.
Any other clues?
I've also tried flashing "boot loop" at the bottom of the same post, but HBOOT keeps doing the same: loads zip, parses it, shows regular menu. Nothing else.
Other option is to supercid your device if you can.... Makes your device more flexible...

@paul.turchenko, the firmware will not flash as HTC.dev unlock only unlocks part of your bootloader. Radio and boot images (included in each fw package) will not flash unless you have s-off.
Have you tried to relock the bootloader then run a gingerbread ruu? Try to match the baseband, software version, carrier, area etc. as closely as you can to your original setup.

Thanks to post above I successfully unbricked my Sensation 4G.
For those who stuck with the same problem:
Symptoms:
HBOOT:
*UNLOCKED*
S-ON
1.18
Solution: use tool from post above (can't post links) and lock bootloader back. After that your HBOOT will show
*RELOCKED*
S-ON
1.18
After this, phone will accept RUU (which failed before with *UNLOCKED* bootloader).
RUU:
RUU_Pyramid_TMOUS_1.50.531.1_Radio_10.56.9035.00U_10.14.9035.01_M_release_223976_signed

Turn off the phone, then turn it on holding power on + volume down. You will enter HBOOT screen, on the third line there is your HBOOT version.
If you want to install latest ARHD you need to
1) supercid following the instruction on this thread, 4th point
2) flash the firmware package from 3.24.401.1 RUU
3) flash the rom
If you really don't want to supercid, you can follow mike1986's instruction in his firmware thread

the bootloader is unlocked, s-on, and the hboot version is 1.18.0000 .
You have the wrong hboot version. You need to update to 3.32 you can find it on this thread.
Yet another example of why you don't flash an OTA file over a rooted ROM. I wonder how many more we'll get before people get the picture...

The problem was not from flashing the OTA to a rooted device. The problem was flashing the OTA without the stock recovery. You need to flash the proper RUU for your device. Who's your carrier, and what RUU are you trying to flash?

Hi, firstly I apologise for being an idiot.
I rooted my XE last week and have been trying to install ROMs onto it since. I followed numerous guides (not very well apparently) and still cannot get it to work. The problem being every ROM i try to flash after it has installed, during the reboot the white htc screen comes up over and over again.
I've tried numerous ROMs, stock ROMs and nothing has worked. I tried to locate the original backup I made but it seems to be gone too
Any help would be appreciated, otherwise I've blown a couple of hundred quid.
Do you know how to run a log cat and post the results as this would help people help you better. But then again there is always the option to just download the correct RUU for your Sensation, flash the stock ROM with it, and then start all over.

What / how would I start all over if I had the correct RUU and ROM (both of which I think I have). The RUU is an exe file? Is that correct and the ROM I just put on the root of my SD?

Yes the RUU is a .exe file that will flash the stock ROM to your Sensation, notice I said stock ROM wich means you will not be rooted anymore, you will have the stock recovery again, and you will more than likely be S-on again. This is why I said you would have to start over again if you use the RUU.
The ROM does go on your SD card but if it is a stock ROM you will have to have the stock recovery to flash it, if it is a custom ROM you will have to have S-off and a custom recovery.

So apparently I have the wrong RUU? How would I find out which is the correct one?
Thanks for your help and patience so far!
Have you made sure you have the correct firmware for the Rom you are trying to install?

Yeah I'm pretty sure it is! PG58IMG?
When I run the RUU it comes up with current image version: 1.73.401.2
Then when it goes to update the ROM it comes up saying unknown error 155, wrong RUU???
It sounds like you may have the wrong RUU, who is your carrier and what is the region did your Sensation originate from. This is the information you need to get your correct RUU.

It is unlocked from the UK, probably 02 but unlocked as I said, using an orange sim. Where could I find this info?

Ok if it is from the UK you probably need the "RUU_Pyramid_O2_UK_1.34.206.1_Radio_10.43a.9007.00U_10.51.9007.27_M", you can find it here. Remeber you will have to have the HTC Sync drivers installed on your computer, and you will have to boot into the Hboot then the bootloader and connect your Sensation via USB to your computer before running the RUU.
