[Q] Bricked, HTC BOOTLOOP, No RECOVERY, Begging You - HTC Sensation

hi all xda community !
So here is the situation :
HBOOT Screen :
***UNLOCKED***
pyramid pvt ship s-off rl
HBOOT-1.27.0000
Radio-11.21.3504.13_2
OpenADSP-v02.6.0.226.00.0104
eMMC-boot
Symptom:
I'm Stuck in a bootloop after i flash the 3.24 firmware and the Elegancia ROM.
First Time the roms boot normaly, then i reboot with the USB Cable attach.
And here come the BootLoop
Try to go to recovery, but bootLoop too.........
So I can go in Hboot, i can do FASTBOOT command and that all.
I try to flash CWM from fastboot -- > Ok for flash but wont go in recovery..
Try to flash 1.17 firmware then flash ROM.zip from 1.35Ruu Europe release --> Bootloop
Try to Flash 3.24 Ruu Same BOOTLOOP..
So what can I do community ?
What Solution i have ?
Why i cant flash a recovery since i Have S-OFF ??
MAYBE :
- Maybe i flash a Ruu who was Corrupt
- Maybe the radio don't match the Ruu i Tried to flash
- Maybe i'm just a simple mind guy
It seems that the 3.24 Firmware from SebastianFM with hBoot unlock have some problem, cause it seems that i'm not the only one who got several problem after flash this Firmware.

I got you. Actually you do not have any custom recovery installed. Actually if you flash any RUU it will wipe your recovery partition and install stock recovery. So first you flash a custom recovery. I know you tried to flash CWM.But you got bootloop. Did you delete the file PG58IMG.zip from sdcard after flashing CWM ???? Please redo the following steps.
STEPS TO FOLLOW:
1. Download recovery v5.0.0.8 for the Sensation here .
2. Copy the PG58IMG file into the Root folder of your SD card (The main Folder of your Memory Card)
3. Turn off your phone.
4. Remove the battery.
5. Wait a minute.
6. Put the battery again.
7. Press Power + Volume Down key together.
8. The phone will boot into bootloader.
9. Press Volume up to Accept when it asks" Do you want to start the update"
10. Press Power Off to Reboot back to android after installation is successful (normal screen with homescreen)
11. It may not boot . Do not worry because you may have wiped out evrything.
12. Power off your phone.
13. Delete PG58IMG from your memory card .
14. Download your favorite custom ICS ROM.
15. Put it on the root of your SDCARD.
16. Remove the battery.
17. Wait a minute.
18. Put the battery again.
19. Press Power + Volume Down key together.
20. The phone will boot into bootloader.
21. Select "Recovery" by pressing Volume Down Key.
22. Press Power button after selecting Recovery.
23. Your phone will reboot into clockworkmod recovery.
24. Wipe system, boot, cache, data , and dalvik cache
24. Install your ROM from SDCARD.
25. Wait at least 7 to 10 minutes for first boot
26. Your phone will be normal now.
NOTE:
******* You must be SuperCID to do the above. Please also note , from your preveous post, I understand that you have V3.24 Firmware. Remember only ICS rom will work with this firmware. So do not flash Gingerbread ROM.**********

hi help is appreciate,
`So i tried to follow your step 3 times . One with 1.17 Firmware 3.12 & 3.24.
every time after flashing the recovery, i reboot and when i go to recovery the phone go into boot loop.

Which ROM you want to flash ??
Why did you try all three firmware ???? You should choose your firmware according to your ROM you want to flash.
You may get boot loop after flashing recovery as there might be no rom installed.
So as I said after flashing recovery you should power off your device. Then boot into bootloader by the preveous method. ( Step 3 to 7 ).Selct recovery by volume down key. Then press power button. You will be in recovery. And flash your ROM. But your ROM should match with the firmware.

Ok but How could i flash a ROm if i can't go to recovery ...

Ok maybe you miss understand, i got boot loop when i want to go to recovery too

Please tell me what ROM you want to flash. Post the link here. And once again you give the details of your boot loader screen. Do you have fastboot/adb set up on your PC?

So, Let fix the recovery first.
Download this attatched recovery (4Ext Touch).
MD5 Checksum : d31d7df8d275f7234416af6a2e8b1c73
Check the md5check sum after download. If it matches , go to the next step else redownload.
Put the downloaded recovery.img in the directory of your fastboot binary.
Connect your phone with pc via usb cable.
Reboot your phone into bootloader.
Open fastboot command from your pc.
Now type the following command in fastboot.
" fastboot flash recovery recovery.img "
After flashing type " fastboot reboot"
Now try to go to recovery. If it is successfull then I will tell you the ROM flashing part.
Please come on gtalk . My gtalk id is musarraf172

ok i'm on gtalk wait for ya

so i'm still in the BOotLoop mode.
i've tried almost everything who was in the forum.
i'm aware of the noob style problem(Firmware not updated, still got PM58IMG.zip in SDcard, wrong Rom--firmware etc ..) and i'm not in this case !!!!
I think the device is brick but maybe someone with good knowledge, and experience can help me.
For now i got the last Hboot, i can flash recovery from fastboot , the command return OK but recovery wont boot.
Ruu flashing run nice with no problem but don't Boot (.exe and PM58IMG.zip).
when i try to unlock bootloader (who is already mark S-OFF but just for try)
with the HTCDEV method i'm stuck on the Unlock bootloader screen and i can't click YES.
it seems that my data partition have disappear ...
I here if you need more information.
Maybe someone can tell me if it's possible to FullWipe from fastboot ?

if yo can go in fastboot your likley not bricked.
you can always flash the original or similar ruu (not a rom) you phone came with in fastboot.
so you will go to stock with your hboot and recovery and to see if it boots.
then do the whole process over. s-off, then root.
then check your mid and cid if its supported.
and only then update to ics.
btw whats the type of phone? branded or og htc

my phone is from vodaphone so branded.
What do you mean by flashing your original or similar Ruu ?
The one coming with the phone out of box ?
i flash via command, .exe or PM58IMG.zip ?
i don't write my original cid is it bad ?

yes the rom the phone came with or close to it (any with recent ota`s).
always flash the ruu.exe because it wil recover the hboot, radio and recovery to stock. (zipfiles can be easily corrupted)
so go in fastboot usb (via power and volume button) and run the ruu.exe
then s-off/root the device
when s-off you should be able to install recovery within the original rom like cwr or ext4 updater tool, backup, then check your mid and cid, get a correct zipfile for the ics firmware update, flash arhd (it includes the lastest ext4 recovery). then change roms if you like.
you then also can check if the phone is working correctly.
if you already changed to supercid, i think its oke.
if not, on the forum there is al list of cid`s from different countrys and brands.
also there is al list of originals ruu the devices came with.
i assume you have done custom roms before ics came out?
so the cupercid was applied correctly?
i never supercid my devices (on a personal note)
and always flashed the testroms (to get the latest firmware) with no probs.
but if your branded its mandatory.

i've already flash 3 Ruu from this thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1074559
and all finish in a bootloop with no stock recovery... almost all Ruu run fine with no alert
ruu i flashed already :
RUU_Pyramid_HTC_Europe_1.27.401.3_Radio_10.42.9007.00P_10.11.9007.
RUU_Pyramid_HTC_Europe_1.35.401.1_Radio_10.43a.9007.00U_10.51.9007.

To flash this do we have to be in any earlier version?
Bcoz i tried flashing but its stuck in boot animation.
I DId al wiping(data,cache,dalvik) ..
Did fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot reboot.
But still the problem remains..
Any suggestions
Thanks
If you do a full wipe before flashing it's not relevant which ROM or version you are coming from. Maybe you have wrong hboot.
Is your device s-off?

no mine in still S-ON thru htcdev but rooted,using cm7.1..wanna try best ROM based on sense UI...hence wanted to flash...now i have observed one thing whichever the ROM i flash it its not happening...it stays in boot animation..earlier i tried CM7.1,MIUI WP7 ...My hboot version is 2.00.002
Unlocking thru htcdev allows to flash a ROM with stock kernel only. For freeful flash-rom-manipulating S-Off is needed. Try flashing any ROM with non-stock kernel led me only to the screen with HTC logo.

With HTCDev unlock you have to flash the kernel separately.
Which means:
1) open WhateverROMyouHaveDownloaded.zip
2) extract the boot.img that you will find inside
3) flash the ROM as usual (with full wipe)
4) Do not restart your phone yet, because you will be stuck in a HTC logo screen (bootloop)
5) from the recovery power menu reboot to bootloader
6) connect the phone to PC
7) flash the boot.img with the fastboot command:
Code:
fastboot flash boot {path to the file on your computer}\boot.img
8) reboot and enjoy your new ROM
P.S. this is a nasty limitation of HTCDev unlock, to avoid downgrade to a previous version (there are two guides in the Index), S-OFF with Revolutionary, flash Eng bootloader 0.98.2000 or 2.00.2002 and flash custom ROMs in one step
do u want me to put on "Team viewer after flashing a non-stock rom" ?i can do that man...
amidabuddha.....
I have done all the things what u said but with a difference.....Extracted ROM.zip put on the root of the SD card and and did fastboot flash boot boot.img...
If i extract the BOOT.IMG on the computer and den flash will it make any difference???
i have flashed boot.img seperately like u said it worked..
Thanks man

yes i did, but that didnt change anything
Try to find the executive file of ROM (.exe) and run it to reflash your phone from PC. That the way I did with my One X, hope that will help. Remember to relock the phone before flashing.

i tried it but it failed because of image version of the latest Rom Update Utility( 1.08.1400.6 ) which is lower than my phone image version(1.10.1400.1.).
maybe you can go to htc service center and get them flash it back for you, they won't charge you anything (in my country), just say you don't know what happen...

i still didnt find any solution yet...
If you have the RUU.exe file (as you said), lets try :
- run the exe file.
- when the installation preperation process completed , keep the process wait there and find the temperature rom extracted somewhere in PC.
- copy the rom to other place.
- find the boot.img and recovery.img in firmware.zip file (in the zip rom that you just have)
- unlock your phone.
- press volume down + power to go to bootloader.
- connect phone to PC and use fastboot to flash boot.img file.
- continue to flash recovery.img
- relock the phone by fastboot oem lock
- flash rom.zip by fastboot.
Hope that could help. That is the way I did for my friend One X+.

So, the problem should be HBoot version, I guested. You may try to search and find if there are any solutions to re-install Hboot, otherwise, send your phone to HTC service center is last solution you should do.
Unbrick htc x920e
hi everyone i finally succeed to unbrick my htc butterfly. Thx for all the support u guys brought to this post.
This is how i did it:
1. boot in recovery mode and wipe eveything (factory reset, cache, dalvik-cache and system)
2. Flash any x920e custom rom :
In my case i couldnt mount the sdcard from the recovery so i select the option "Install zip from sideload " instead of "Install zip from sdcard" abd and i used ADB Toolkit GUI Shell (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1800335) to flash the custom rom.
Once in sideload mode u can use this command to flash the custom rom:
Code:
adb sideload rom_name.zip
After the phone reboot it was still stucked at the boot logo so i proceeded to step 3
3.Reboot in bootloader and put the phone in "fastboot USB" mode
4. Open the custom rom zip file and extract the "boot.img"
5. Use the command shell to flash the extracted boot.img using this command:
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
6.Reboot

I am SO Freaking lost..... My problem is my phone will freez at the HTC splash screen, and the only things I can get into is bootloader and 4ext recovery. I can't flash any images they don't want to be flashed with the PD98img.zip I can't do anyting my phone is empty with no android os.. I am stuck.

In the link you provided, on the first page, there were two seperate downloads, depending on when the phone was developed. "Download (restores to official Froyo 2.2.2) (315MB)" and also "Download (restores to official Gingerbread 2.3.3) (309MB)". Was just wondering which one you tried if any at all.
The only thing I can boot into is the 4ext Recovery Touch & hboot Can someone send me stock inspire 4g rom 4ext backup files they are *.tar files [email protected] Or [email protected]
Would that restore my system ?

4.Reboot to HBOOT: Shutdown completely (disconnect USB if connected and pull battery if necessary) then while holding down the VOL-DOWN key, press the POWER key for about half a second. The phone should boot into HBOOT, check the PD98IMG.zip for consistency, then prompt you to install. Select VOL-UP to install.
5.Once installed, HBOOT will prompt you to reboot by pressing the POWER button. Do this
I can get to step 4 and instead of flashing the PD98IMG.zip is says parsing and just goes back to hboot. I can't flash anything.
I have been making some MAJOR progress on my phone.. after messing around with a lot of fastboot commands, I found this with helped .. fastboot -c "lge.kcal=0|0|0|x" boot customrecovery.img if forces some images to boot.
Also the link I posted above only will work if my phone is relocked. I can't even make post in the Inspire 4G Android Development , because i'm "too new " to ask a question. But I managed to get his program to run again and I've noticed something. on step 7
7.Once successfully completed, the phone will automatically reboot to HBOOT and begin the process of installing the RUU. The only thing you have to do at this point is acknowledge the prompt to install by pressing VOL-UP. (Note: the RUU install may skip a couple of images during the install but this is normal.
IT FAILS to copy the RUU to the sdcard. and that's what has left my phone without an OS. I've also got the stock RUU htc_inspire4g_att_RUU_3.20.502.52_US.exe to run and complete But my phone hangs after the HTC logo..
So i'm headed in the right direction. Any ideas ???? ~ T
SO I've made a HUGE step in progress yesterday, I installed JellyTime rom and inspire mod and gapps. and forced the boot.img file to boot using fastboot -c "lge.kcal=0|0|0|x" boot boot.img it made the boot.img to run and start JellyTime. I've got android installed on the phone now. The only problem is I need to S-OFF so I can fastboot flash boot boot.img. It won't do it right now, As of now the phone will bootup and hang on the White HTC logo screen, Every attempt to S-OFF the phone has failed so far. Any Ideas ?

You don't need S-Off to fastboot flash boot.img. Just an unlocked bootloader.

This is not at all helpful. He is asking for boot.img or S-Off help. If he can't do that his ROM is irrelevant.
OMG. this is the worst place for help ever. I have Jelly time installed and I can get into it But only AFTER forcing the boot.img to boot. I CANNOT boot into jellytime by it's self normally. BECAUSE I cannot flash the boot.img file I get an error message. Because I need S-OFF to be off. right now it's on. Everything I've tried has failed.

You don't need S-Off to fastboot flash boot.img. Just an unlocked bootloader.

Also, you haven't told us what error message you get when you try to flash the boot.img. And is your bootloader unlocked??

What does forcing the boot.img means? there is no other way to flash a boot.img that in fastboot if you are S-ON. There is no need to be S-OFF to fastboot flash. In fact, having S-OFF is not enough to enable flash commands in fastboot (you actually need ENG S-OFF for that).
I suggest that you give detail information about the errors and what you are doing if you want to get helped.
Hello,
I have htc inspire. My phone was new sept 2011 and worked until july 2012. My phone was set to charge only and usb debug disable and was never rooted. One night I put the phone to charge and the next day it I turned it on but it never made past the white screen. I have tried to put the rom on sd card as PD98IMG. I tried RUU. The phone lists:
ACE PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-0.85.0024 MICROP-0438
RADIO-26.10.04.03_M
eMMC-boot

When I try using RUU it gets stuck on reloading bootloader
When I try the PD98IMG method using a goldcard, it gets stuck:
parsing...[SD ZIP]
[1] BOOTLOADER -UPDATING
[2] BOOT
[3] RECOVERY
etc
Please help
Not sure but What helped me get past the HTC logo screen is just recovering the old Stock of the phone.
The link provided is to return back to old stock AT&T Roms.

Boot your phone in Bootloader mode (PWR + VOL DOWN).
Run the RUU Installer.
For S-Off, Advanced Hack Kit (AAHK) was quite a big help to me.
My problem is I have s-on. Phone freezes when I try pd98img on sd goldcard. I can connect with fastboot but I am not sure how to use it. The phone was in charge only & usb debug off when it use to work.

Sensation stuck on JuopunutBear screen

Hi, at first i would say sorry for my english
So, i want install on my htc sensation custom rom, so i unlock bootloader on htcdev website, everything gone perfectly
Second step was installing CWM recovery and phone rooting, thats gone good too. Tutorial for CWM and root install i have take from this: theunlockr.com/2012/09/20/how-to-root-the-htc-sensation-on-hboot-version-1-27-0000
In next step i did wire-trick on ControlBear 0.5 beta, but phone don't want to reboot and make JuopunutBear logo, so i try to find 0.6 beta, but i can't found it. I found 0.7 beta, and on this wersion i did wire-trick, i miss a little bit with wire (wait too long) and program send me an error, i must click Enter for exit, and i clicked. From that moment my phone don't want to boot, all time i have JuopunutBear screen. I can go in bootloader, but my recovery don't want to start, so i install recovery and root again and try to restore backup from recovery, but system still don't want to boot.
At this moment i can go to bootloader and i have unlock bootloader with htcdev, recovery and probably root, i haven't s-off. My HBOOT version is 1.27.0000
Please help me, i don't know what i should do. Maybe i still can do wire-trick? I don't know :crying: I tried to find RUU, but two RUU don't want to open, and third send me info that they can't update soft and i should download correct program for update ROM memory.
Please help me!:crying:
Hi.
Run your phone's appropriate RUU, care for the region and the model as well, to be exact. For sensation XE, it has an extra LE in its name.

install 4ext recovery and then enable smartflash then restore the rom backup youve got ..(step #2 and step #3 ..from this guide)
if phone still not booted then do the extra #1 step from the same above guide ...but use the boot.img from the backup you've done (will be available at /sdcard/clockworkmod/backups)
Thanks @ganeshp !!! Phone is booting and android works Thanks a lot :* You're my hero
btw, i used method with flashing my boot.img, becouse restore from 4ext didn't work

Where did u go wrong? Are you s off now?
I'm not on s-off, , becouse controlbear (0.7 beta) send me an error and i must click enter for exit, after exit my sensation don't want to boot. Probably i have waiting too long for second wire "click" on sdcard, and program send error. Now i have unlock bootloader, 4ext recovery and root, i dont know which version of controlbear i need for wire-trick. If you have good version please send me a link to download
Send from my HTC Sensation
22
I got a link for 0.5beta, I'll pm you incase in case you want to try it (I haven't. Just got it yesterday, havent had a chance)
edit:used the one click tool to root, controlbear worked like a boss, took a few tries with a wire trick, phone rebooted once but no harm done
So if my phone don't want to boot system and stuck on JuopunutBear screen i can unplug my phone, plug in again and still try to do wire-trick, for that moment when phone will have s-off?

you can always try the wire trick multiple times ...even when the phone is stuck at juopunutbear screen.
however if you want ..you can revert back the phone to working condition too (except sdcard) ..controlbear has this functionality too
check troubleshoot point #4 from my soff guide for further details ( link in my signature )
This is the answer for 10 points
This is what i need. Thanks a lot. I will try to do wire-trick again in future (now i know what i need to do when phone is stuck on that screen )
Thanks a lot
Edit, If i have rooted phone, i haven't use temproot.bat ?
Hi, it's me ... again..
I have done wire-trick today, but i have problem I done it, but controlbear send me text that they can't find device after wire-trick, i have unplug phone and try to restart them.

just remove the temp root with remove bat.file or whatever it is called
Ok, i have used this, but phone still is stuck on joupunut screen.
While i do wire-trick i haven't use temp-root, becouse i had unlock bootloader via htcdev, i had root and recovery - now i havent anything

flash jb hboot from unlimited.io site(it is unlocked patched)

then flash the recovery.img

EDIT: Okay, i'm so stupid :/ i type that without "sudo ./" and now i have hboot 1.27.1111 and i have flashed recovery 4ext. Now i can make root again and install ROM from SD card like this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2531054 ?
EDIT2: recovery display info that i must do full wipe and microsd card wipe. So i can't restore backup from sd now, right? I must do full wipe with sd card too and install ROM from sd card?

first: if you are willing to flash a custom rom then there is no need to root your current one
all custom roms comes pre-rooted
second: there is no need to wipe your sdcard.where did you see that?
just make a nandroid backup from recovery just in case
then format all partitions except sdcard from recovery
flash the new rom
done
Ok, i have one backup (i made it about 2 weeks ago, when sensation worked normally), so i think i haven't make second. And my recovery is now in safe-mode, so when i wipe partitions it will be normal, right?
Tomorrow i will download Vipers 5.0.0 JB and install it Thanks a lot

While recovery is booting, every times when i open it, it boot from 0, for second i can see something like "can't mound sd" or something.
when boot is done, recovery recieve me text:
"ATTN: recovery is in safe mode this is because the following partition is not accessible: "cache"
Please enter the wipe menu and wipe cache!
If you changed hboot you should choose to format all partitions (except sdcard)
Afterwards please reboot recovery"
And above "reboot now" i can see " ! SAFE MODE ! "
When i go in Power Menu and chose power off, i can see:
"You are currently in safe_mode.
You means that your internal partition are not accessible.
please wipe all partitions and then reboot recovery!
reboot recovery now? "
Yes or No, i can't power off device, i must take out battery.

Since it's a HTC phone, it has S-OFF and S-ON, Is your Phone S-OFF?
Then you could flash a Rom without flashing Boot.IMG using PC
Is it S-ON?
Then you need to seperate the Boot.img and flash it using your PC with CMD.
To check if your S-OFF or On you need to reboot into your bootloader and read it from there.
procedure?

Remove the Battery when your phone is off, Put it back on, Press Vol Down & Power Button at the same time, Then you enter HBoot Menu, now read the First Sentence and it says something about The Device Name and S-OFF or S-ON.
If your S-OFF you don't need to flash Boot.img.
Flash ROM first Before Flashing Boot.Img
To flash Boot.img, Seperate the boot.img and put it somewhere you can find back. (For example the C Partition on your PC)
Turn your phone on HBoot Then Click fastboot
Plug your phone into your PC with a Micro USB
Then Enter CMD (When you have all the flash tools)
Search the Boot.img and type : Fastboot flash boot c:\boot.img
how to flash using cmd?

You never told us Your Recovery also which version are you using + Did you Do a full wipe before flashing?
Are you clearing the caches
Did you remember to clear all the caches and system? If you don't the system will never boot, but not freeze either. It the system is freezing there is likely an incompatibility in my experience.

You Don't need to clear Cache or System, If you Flash From Stock (This is not for all devices).

Good point. It would be a more useful one if you knew this happened to be a device you don't need to do that with.
However, this is the advice everyone should get before flashing a rom and since this particular flash's failure has symptoms indicating the cache corrupted it, I don't see why you would try moving a step backwards. You yourself stated a wipe should be performed, which would include the caches and system if all options were selected.
Back up the device again and clear the cache and system, which is already inoperable and see if the clean flash clears up system boot problem.

(lol) You said you had S-OFF, Well That not so, You have HTC dev Unlock that means S-ON, Which means you have the Manually Flash Boot.img.
1.Unlock your bootloader and flash a custom recovery (CWM or 4ext)
2.Download the rom zip file you are willing to flash to your PC.
3.Extract the the boot.img from inside the zip file (do not extract the whole rom)
4.Put the zip file in your sdcard.
5.Boot into recovery and do a full wipe (wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache partition, format system)
6.Flash rom (install zip from sdcard)
7.Reboot into bootloader again and plug the phone to the PC.
8.You need to be in fastboot usb (if you see HBOOT USB PLUG in the phone, just press power to toggle)
9.Open a cmd/terminal and navigate to where the boot.img file is located.
10.Type: fastboot flash boot boot.img If you don´t how to do that, watch this video (it is in spanish, thou you can follow it without listening to the instructions)
11.Reboot and now you should be enjoying your custom rom
i had already unlocked bootloader ...Means first i have to download the rom and extract boot.tmg somewhere else like in c: then i have to keep dat zip file (without boot.img) in sd card and flash it using recovery mode (without file boot.img) ? and then what..? i have to reboot the phone???or how to then connect to pc..? coz i thing phone will not start without "boot.img"...so how do i connect to pc?? and firstly i have to flsh via phone (withour boot.img) and then connect via pc and flash "boot.img"..?? then ???? what i have to do further..????? this tym it will not stuck na???
thankyou

No it won't Like i said Flash the ZIP (ROM) Before with or without Boot.IMG (Doesn't do anything) But you have to extract the Boot.img before and placing it somewhere, where you can flash it with CMD or whatever Apple or linux uses.
Then flash it in CMD after Flashing the ZIP with Recovery.
With the Following Command Fastboot flash boot c:\boot.img (When placed in the C Disk)
Remember you need to be in Fastboot mode Not in HBOOT mode that means you have to Click one time on the power button.
