[Q] install New RUU

Good day
I got my new sensation 2 days ago i need to install new RUU on the device but i don't know where to start and what to do
plz i need help thxx

You can't flash an RUU that's different from you original version. It's been covered SO many times before it's not funny.
What RUU are you trying to flash and what ROM is currently on your phone?

im trying to install "RUU_Pyramid_HTC_ARA_1.34.415.1"
and idon't know what is the current RUU on my device
my problem is :
i want to add arabic support to my device , when i run the RUU it can't discover the device, my device is connects and set to USB disk drive

You can't do it. To find the version on your handset go to Settings>About phone>Software information
And it shouldn't be connected in Disk Drive mode to run an RUU - you set it to HTC Sync (and you need HTC Sync installed on your PC)

Android Version 2.3.3
Software number 1.35.720.1
Kernal 2.6.35.10-g9cef70d
and if i can't how can i install arabic support on device??

You can't, simple as that. You need to wait until we have root access to flash a new ROM which has Arabic support built into it. Might be weeks yet

as mentioned above, you just can't at the moment, for arabic webpages however you can download Firefox which renders arabic websites without a problem, I know that doesn't solve all the problems though, the facebook app for instance can't ready arabic unless it's supported natively by the rom, don't worry though, once HTC releases its S-off update all will be fine.

So it also won't be possible to flash the "RUU_Pyramid_HTC_Europe_1.35.401.1_Radio_10.43a.900 7.00U_10.51.9007.27_M3_release_198179_signed"
to a 1.34.206.1 (Europe) device, right? =(
or is there a possibility to do this?
Would be really nice to get that unbranded version to my phone cause I really dislike waiting weeks or longer for a new branded version every time a new software version is released.. :/

That's correct, you can't debrand until we have full root access

Not what I've wanted to read but thanks for the answer :')
I hope that will change soon

Your thread in general isn't helpful to the guy dragging up an 8 month old thread. To answer the question you need to s-off, set super cid and then flash the RUU you wish to use

Is there a temp-root or root without S-Off?

Is there a way to get temporary (or otherwise) root without doing S-Off?
Just wanted to make absolutely sure I wasn't missing something (Or if there was a method posted somewhere outside of XDA)

It looks like this is no longer possible with the OTA update? Tried it and it didn't work.
Has anyone been able to temp-root after taking the T-Mobile OTA update?
Is there another method, perhaps off XDA, that works?

Anyone?

No, pretty much all died once S-OFF was about. So long as you have the stock RUU that your phone is on at present (or nearest you can get) you can revert to stock at any time

How/where do you get a stock RUU?
And does it turn S-OFF back to S-ON?

Same problem
Having same problem. Updated to 1.45 T-Mobile OTA and now fre3vo exploit fails.
Desperately needing temp root to backup current stock ROM since seems like no T-Mobile European stock ROM (in my case Czech) is available for download
If anyone is aware of T-Mobile EU(CZ would be the best) RUU existence/download link I would really appreciate and will move into revolutionary.io way instead of looking for temp root.

If you are referring to this link then could you please point to T-Mobile European RUU? There are clearly two T-Mobile RUUs but both are US.
Thanks.

He means to check your firmware.
When upgrading to ICS you need to update your firmware. There's a thread by mike1986 that'll help you. You can find it in developer thread.

Yes, you need a newer firmware that's running ICS correctly.

It as been updated to the latest firmware to run ICS but the lad I bought it off said then's when all the problems began. So I was thinking of trying to downgrading it back to gingerbread [stock or custom rom] to see if that would sort the problems out

Have you installed a Custom Firmware or a Stock-Rom from ICS?
What firmware has you installed yet?

it was already rooted with a custom ISC rom installed So it came straight from a stock gingerbread rom to a custom ISC rom

Hello Freddy!
Have you tried to install another custom rom or re-install the one you already have? My guess is that it's not ICS that's messing with you but rather the ROM/firmware is. My tip for a rom is Ordroid (You can find it in the developer section of the sensation forum).
I don't know how experienced you are with rooting/flashing roms etc but when you go from one ROM to the other it's recommended to format the different partions (except SD-card).
Also here is a thread about different firmwares and how to install them if you don't want to change rom and just try a different firmware to see if it gets any better
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1459767
Here you have an all-in-one thread linking to different guides and fixthreads etc as well
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1613295

How do you know if your downloading the right firmware [Unlocked UK sensation]

You can also download the latest ICS RUU. Then you will be completely stock, with the correct firmware. from there you can always try custom roms If you don't like the stock ones.
You can find the RUU's in the Pyramid Shipped Roms thread in de developers section

Hi
I decided to try and restore it to stock gingerbread rom put am not sure what rom and firmware I will need

You van download the RUU in the Shipped roms thread, If you run the RUU then everything will be installeren, firmware, radio, rom etc.
You can find the thread in the developers section. For europe you need the RUU with RUU_PYRAMID_1.50.401.2 in it's file name.

usually
go to the development section of htc sensation and look for virtuous or another ics and inside that same post, they will tell you which pyramid you can install, for your cellphone,

Flash a stock GB RUU so you will be putting the phone back to out of the box.Then start fresh reading all the tutorials available

am not sure which one i would need though

http://db.tt/1vf53aOI
This is a link for the 1.45 europe RUU. You can update it OTA to 1.50 to get the latest Gingerbread rom. Make sure you have the correct CID either HTC__001 or superCID.
If you want to flash the stock ICS rom then here's the RUU for that: http://db.tt/KLhJSmgk

Sorry for all the questions what is CID either HTC__001 or superCID.

CID... Is carrier identification.. It is to identify which model is linked to which carrier or whether it is unbranded.
A device with a particular cid.. Only receives update from that carrier only. (eg recently TMOBILE US ppl got ics)
If your cid is HTC__001 then your phone is Europe unbranded (not linked to any carrier) one
Now supercid is a unique cid (11111111)
That lifts carriers restrictions.. If you got supercid you can install official rom's (RUU) of any carrier and any country

Its unlocked to work with any network Is the supercid part of the rooting process

[Q] HTC Sensation 4G Updated to latest 4.0.3 root?

Downgrade Sensation back to gingerbread
In order to root your sensation, you need to downgrade your Sensation back down to 2.3.5
In order to do this you need the Gingerbread RUU
Google "Sensation TMOUS RUU"
Make sure your sensation is fully charged and connected to your computer, the double click the RUU.
DOING THIS WILL WIPE EVERYTHING OFF OF YOUR SENSATION (except SD)
MAKE SURE YOUR CONTACTS, TEXTS ETC ... ARE BACKED UP BEFORE PROCEEDING!
DO NOT DISSCONNECT YOUR SENSATION UNTIL THE OPERATION IS COMPLETE! OR YOU WILL BRICK YOUR PHONE!
IF it fails try the RUU again, or download a newer version of the GINGERBREAD RUU

Yes, it's possible, the downgrade to GB is not need, but you needs to be prepared for "wire trick" during S-OFF procedure.
You can follow the instructions & tools from this thread
