So.. The other day I rooted my htc sensation perfectly, and gained super user access, S-off and all that stuff to root.
So I flashed a MIUI rom onto the phone which worked perfectly.
Today I tried to flash the Virtuos Quattro ROM onto my phone and it didn't work. So I cleared the cache, user data, and all that, but every time I tried to flash the rom it came up with an error.
(At this point when I turned the phone on , it when in a boot loop..l unless I went into recovery mode.) so I tried to restore the MiUI ROM and it wouldn't work anymore..
So I formatted the system and still no luck. Formatted the SD card and no luck.
However, after doing all of that, I lost the MIUi ROM, have no way of getting to a home screen, and I don't know how to get back either to my stock rom or to the MIUI rom.
It still says I'm S-off.. But I have no clue how to get back to either my stock rom ( because I have no idea where to find it) which is what I want to do again
Have I deleted the stock rom?
Is there a way to get back to the stock rom in this case? Or what should I do?!?
In desperate need of help guys!!
Cheers

Download a Rom to your computer the go to recovery and mount sdcard plug the phone to your computer and put the Rom to your phone from your computer if this doesn't work use another phone and put your sdcard in that phone and put the Rom from your computer to your sdcard
If you've formatted the sd card, without making a backup of the stock nandroid on the computer, you've lost that.
Search here for stock sensation ROMs for your carrier (pretty much what you had before you started flashing ROMs) and, if you do want to go back to stock, follow the instructions to flash it. Then follow step 5 here *CAREFULLY* to get s-on and stuff again (if you're wanting to go that far).
I'd personally recommend trying to flash ARHD or something, a ROM that has been flashed by a lot of people - trouble free, again by following the instructions carefully. It could maybe just be something as simple as you got a bad download (always check md5 # to be on the safe side - and to ensure that stuff like this doesn't happen.)
Once you've rooted there's not really much cause for going back to stock, as most custom ROMs are edited to perfection for speed and efficiency.

Have you got CWRecovery? If you have, flash any custom ROM then flash any stock
RUU, but before you can do that, you need to SuperCID your device.
If you have CWRecovery and you have made a backup of a previous ROM, just restore it.
Hold volume down and power and factory reset, or as stated before if your rooted go to cwm factory reset or restore previous rom

well unfortunately I dont have a CW restore because I was trying to wipe the phone completely (to get a fresh start).I noticed that I can fix it with ODIN somehow but it says I need a stock rom.So ur saying grab any of those Pyramid_RUU roms and it will work?

If u supercid with all ones you can flash a ruu.exe and it will bring ur phone back to life.
You don't have cwm or u just don't have a restore Rom?
Are u rooted or s-off?
If so put this file on the root of your sd card:
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=3XJEHM9A
Boot into recovery and flash and u will.have the newest cwm, than boot into recovery,than factory reset or download a rom of your choice and flash
You should be fine now.

Hi all, sorry for that I am a noob in this question, but please tell me normally in the correct oreder, what to do if I want to install Adroid Revolution HD on my HTC Sensation XE device? I have android 2.3.4 on it and I just finished the:
* HTC Sensation or HTC Sensation 4G or HTC Sensation XE S-OFF - Guide to S-off, Installing ClockWork, PermRoot, SuperCID & Flashing
by the guide what was written.
But now i just can't move forward. I want to install the AR HD with ICS 4.0.3 + Beats audio.
But i am totally confused what to do, because by the guide i am just ordered across by tons of web pages and i can't look through of it.
Please help me out.
P.S.: Do i have to buy that 4EXT or what is that program?
1: download the 4ext updater and install it on your phone.
2: Flash the correct Firmware (THIS) (put the firmware on the root of your SD card and reboot into bootloader (vol down + power))
3: Download ROM and place it on your SD card HERE
3a: Download "Super Wipe" script & place it on your SD card HERE
3b: Boot your phone in recovery mode (vol down + power)
3c: In main menu, select "install zip from sdcard"
3d: Select "choose zip from sdcard" and browse to the location of "Super Wipe" script
3e: Once again select "choose zip from sdcard" and browse to the location of Android Revolution ROM
3f: After flashing process is complete, reboot the device
After that i flashed, not restart all the time my phone, shows the htc screen and the beats audio, and that's all.

Did you flash the firmware via boot loader?
Sent from my TripNiCE Pyramid using xda premium
Yes, Volume down + Power button. now i am in clockwokmod recovery and restoring everything. Maybe it will work, i am very sad and afraid that i lose my phone.
Nothing happened, after restore it's restarting at beats audio. i killed my phone
If you want to go back to you your other rom (restore) you have to flash the old firmware..
But did you followed the steps correct! And also the guide for s-off, root, supercid etc..
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using xda premium
The s-off guide i followed correctly because when i enter the volume + power button the first thing what was written: revolutionary, the second was s-off, now it is s-off and LOCKED, and all the time reads the PG58IMG.zip and want to update every time. So i am confused.
You'll have to remove the PG58IMG.zip from your SD card before you reboot into recovery to install the ROM.
try removing the SD card before you boot into recovery then mount it back again and delete the PG58IMG file.
I will try to delete that zip file. Do i need to replace it with something, or just delete? After that i deleted i will make once again a recovery and i will post what i have found out.
Deleted the zip file, still can not do anything. now i CMW i want to restore and says can not mount sd-card. :S
Is there in the CMW menu something like mount? If yes choose it and then select mount sdcard
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using xda premium
I picked up that solution too, but i've got an error message. :S
Try to reboot your phone again. Pull out the battery wait 10 sec, put it back in and go to recovery.
okay i will try it. anyway i want to ask from you, that what firmware did you post me the Firmware from 3.12.401.2/102 RUU or the Firmware from 3.24.401.1 RUU?

I have made a big mistake and tried upgrading my phones firmware to install a costume rom.
Phone: HTC Sensation 4G
Company: Tmobile
I downloaded it the wrong firmware now my phone keeps restarting to the main htc screen over and over it wont get past that, I tried doing a factory reset but I'm not sure if it went trough. I'm done toying around with my phone I just want to go back to the the stock version of htc please help me. I can't afford to buy another phone.
Thank you so much.
Fredy
You should be able to pull the battery, hold the power /Vol down to reboot into recovery, mount the USB, copy the correct one and then flash it
Probably the reason why its always restarting is because the firmware is not compatible with the stock rom. I suggest that you should flash the rom that is compatible with the firmware that you installed.
Normally when you flash the firmware of a stock sensation to a latest one for a custom rom, it will bootloop because the current rom is not compatible with the firmware.
Sent from revolutionized HTC Sensation ICS
U can try this if u have a custom recovery (CWM or 4EXT) installed and flashed the firmware by using sd card (PG58IMG.zip):
Remove the sd card from the phone
Hold volume-down + power to boot into bootloader.
Wait 10 seconds until the bootloader is fully loaded
Insert the sd card now
Connect your phone to the PC via USB
Navigate with the volume button and select recovery with the power button
Wait for the recovery to boot
Select -Toggle usb storage-
Phone is now connected in USB storage mode
Delete the PG58IMG.zip file from the sd card using your computer (u can access the sd card as usb mass storage device)
Copy the right PG58IMG.zip (firmware) to the sd card
Select disconnect
Press back to return to the recovery main screen
Reboot phone into bootloader
Bootloader starts flashing firmware

Well when you do a factory reset and anything else you'll lose all of your information but it can be very easy to recover. If you added a Google account to your phone then your contacts will be backed up and your apps redownloaded and anything on your SD card will stay there. All of the stuff from the Google account will come back after you have added the SAME Google account to the phone during setup which is done when you flash a new rom.

Well I'm not too sure, especially with your phone but this is what should happen, reboot into recovery, do some wipes then flash the roms and reboot, if it comes up with a problem DURING the flashing then redownload the rom. If the case is that your phone doesn't boot fully then the problem is that you are using the wrong firmware because you are using a Rom with a different android version. If this didn't solve it then try asking in the sgs2 forums because I don't know too much about your phone

Sent from my Sensation using XDA
First, boot into recovery. Not sure how it works on the sgs2 because I'm running an Incredible 2, but it should be by holding the power and volume buttons if you can't get there from ROM manager.
Second, wipe data/factory reset.
Third, wipe cache partition.
Fourth, advanced/wipe dalvik cache.
Fifth, mounts and storage/format system.
Sixth, install zip from sd card.
Seventh, install gapps if it isn't in the ROM.
Eighth, reboot.

Hey,
i am a owner of a Rogers HTC one X (evita)
I did brick it, to a point where i'm stuck and don't know what to do.
My phone was already unlocked, with clockwork in, superuser and such, but i was rolling on stock RUU.
I decided to try over cyanogen nightly, wich i did in the past, and i felt like i want to give it a try again.
So i download it to my phone, open clockwork, install from SD ... everything worked like a charm.
Then... when i booted on the ROM, it shut down after the htc logo.
So at this moment i said.. well no worry i'll go see what's wrong. So i went back in clockwork.
I cleared the cache, dalvik and such... and i (yes forgive me for this one!) restore default settings .... and probably lost the ROM in the phone.
So... i decide to see if it's still in the phone .. so i went in "install from SD" ... then, cannot find \SD card.... shoosh.
I try to go in mount/unmount ... cannot find SD card ....
I still have access to bootload, to flash up some stuff. But whatever i do, i cannot access my internal memory in the phone ... Or transfert a rom (if there is a magic trick somewhere please tell me!)
SO i'm stuck with a one x with a boot that crash ... And a clockwork wich i can do nothing with.
Any clues?
Never mind, I misread, didn't see the part where you said recovery can't see sd card.

Plug it into a pc and format sd card the factory reset in bootloader corrupta the sd card. After getting sd card straight get rid of cwm and flash twrp 2.3.3.1, nothing higher... Then wipe cache from fastboot. Copy Rom to sd card and install again after wiping system, and caches from recovery. If you are on hboot 1.14 or higher with s-on you have to flash boot.img from fastboot.

Well the thing his, i figure it out, was able to get access to my SD card with TWRP ... So i'm good now
But ...
Whatever ROM i put in, i dont have access to my touchscreen. I've red several guide on how to downgrade, and i totally understand how to do it.
So .. i need to get in debugging mode in a rom to start with (not superCID S-on) ... But how can i get to there if my touchscreen doesnt work ! ARGG !
So i'm trying to find a ROM somehow that uses the most recent touchscreen software .. So i can get in debugging mode and start it over.
All rom i've found i have no access to the touchscreen.
And getting back to stock is impossible (the RUU fail to install).
So what's next?
