Ok, so I was trying to upgrade my sensation xe's firmware for the installation of Android revolution HD, but unfortunately... I thought it had finished updating when it turned back into bootloader, so i rebooted and it stops at the beats logo and reboots. So I read once again all the instructions and it turned out that it hadn't finished updating. What can I do to stop the bootloop? I can factory reset and erase everything on it if i need to, i just got the phone so there isn't much on it.
EDIT: It gives me an error when i boot into bootloader and it tries to update with the PG58IMG.zip: CID is incorrect.
Maybe that's because i didn't superCID? I didn't superCID because the OP here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1412618 said "If you have Super-CID, it can be flashed even on regular Sensation (PG5813000)." So I thought that I didn't need it for the xe.
I had a similar issue when i first got my sensation. Can you get into bootloader? and if so does it try to update firmware again?
Yes I can, and yes it does, it gives me CID is incorrect. But now it doesn't bootloop, it just stays at the htc screen and doesn't move...
You obviously have the wrong firmware for your CID. Because you are not super-cid it means you have to have a firmware that is specific to your cid. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1459767
This thread explains how to get the right firmware and find your phones cid but im not sure how youd go about it if your phone wont boot.
My CID is HTC_E11 i think. It had an 11 in it anyway....

You can try flashing the User Friendly Firmware from here - Do download the right file according to your CID/Location
Alternatively, you can always revert to Hboot 2.17 from the same link.
Well if thats the case, put your sd card into your computer if you can, delete the PG58IMG.zip in there and replace it with the correct one from that thread and let the bootloader update it. But before downloading one off there make sure you get the right version which for android revolution will be 3.30
Hope you manage to get this sorted.
Cid is incorrect.... see picture attached.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1195475
have a read of this thread, the guy on there has made a list of CID's. He also put which phones and networks have which CID.
Unfortunately my cid is not there as I bought mine from egypt, but anyway I bought the phone unlocked.
have you tried flashing hboot 1.17?
I'll try it now.
Is it factory unlocked with no branding? and was that incorrect cid message when trying to update with the firmware from the link?
I think my problem is solved!!!! Thank you guys The firmware i had was the wrong version now i'm waiting for it to boot... it's taking a long time though...
I'll wait and just hope for the best... if it doesn't work i'll try to put hboot 1.17
If it has fixed your problem, it might be benificial to super-cid. Purely because each rom usually reccomends different peoples firmwares, and lets face it, better to flash the reccomended one and be safe. Plus with supercid you havent got to worry that it will do this again if you get the wrong one
It seems to be working as it doesn't give me the CID is incorrect error but now it doesn't boot, it just stays at the htc screen....
EDIT: I guess it's the right firmware because it doesn't give me the error, but it's not working, so should i try a restore?
Is the firmware still on your SD card? if so delete it then go into recovery and flash the ROM you wanted. the reason its stuck on the HTC screen is probably because the ROM that you are coming from cant work on the current firmware.
As sparx180 said, remove the PG58IMG file from your sd card or remove your sd card temporarily while you get into bootloader, then with your phone plugged into your pc change the cid to supercid, re-add the PG58IMG file or re-insert your sd card, reboot the bootloader and let it update. I had the same thing with the cid last night on my girlfriend's phone, bloody pain in the ass!
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710 using XDA App
Oh and the restore is not a good idea if you are not on the same firmware version that you made the backup on. If you cannot get it to boot then you can always flash the firmware you were on before attempting this update and restore a back up and start from scratch.
So should i flash the rom first or supercid first? I'm coming from the stock rom...

Hi Guys,
I really need some help this one........ I rooted my phone sometime ago now and recently in my stupid idiot mind decided to unroot (Yeah stupid i know). Firstly i flashed the RUU:
RUU_PYRAMID_ICS_HTC_Europe_3.12.401.2_Radio_11.65.3504.00U_11.19.3504.29_2_test_233440.exe
Then i went through the s-on process when i finished and rebooted the phone it just kept going to htc logo then blank screen then off and just repeats this process. I've gone into Hboot screen and get this image in the attachment.
Any advice or help would really help I've come over from the Darkside of iPhone so I'm fairly new to all this.
With S-On, you cannot flash a rom from a different region. And your bootloader has changed to 1.23 which i dont think revolutionary is compatible with (the tool to s-off your phone). try flashing the original rom of your phone.
Try flashing an older RUU so u can downgrade hboot version and try running revolutionary again. If not try using official HTC boot unlocker
Sent from my HTC Sensation XE with Beats Audio using XDA Premium App
Thanks for the reply's I'm sure I've tried to downgrade but I've no clue what version was on the phone before root, i know it was the latest gingerbread at the time 3.4 ???????? Oh and I'm in the UK if that helps?????
http://www.filefactory.com/f/c87a2330449af512/
Here you can find all the shipped ROMs for Sensation. There are 4 there, if u search for the word "UK", T-Mobile, Vodafone, Orange and H3G. Pickup the one according to your operator.
But please dont use any of those in case your phone is not bound to any operator. Then you'll have to figure out something else. Update here if that is the case and will try to find a ROM for you.

DAMN man! You decided to go S-ON on a ICS LEAK???..... Pretty silly mate
Since you are in the UK, I would go for a STOCK unbranded RUU, to be on the safe side. Search the forum to try and find the stock 1.18.000 hboot.img and flash via PG58IMG in recovery, as the newer hboot's like you now have dont support fastboot commands.
I really dont know otherwise mate....You may have to use htcdev.com to unlock bootloader.
When i purchased the phone it was unlocked but i use Orange uk. I'm not bothered if it was unlocked as I'm only going to use Orange uk anyway so thats not an issue.
I've tried most of the RUU for Europe but just keep getting errors i really do think its a dead end..........
Yeah I'm stupid !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I've tried loads of RUU off there and just keep getting errors I've unlocked using htc.dev software, I'll put up another picture of the current state of the device.

Ok.... Try follow this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1228648 to get stock recovery. Use the 'GET STOCK RECOVERY MANUALLY' and only follow it to step 5.
Get the recovery_signed.img from an RUU like it says... preferably this one http://www.filefactory.com/file/c0a...00U_10.15.9035.02_2_release_228602_signed.exe
Once you got it zip it up using 7zip file manager or winzip etc... and rename it to PG58IMG.zip
Place on your SD card and boot into bootloader and when it asks to update click yes and see if it changes your boot loader back to stock 1.18.000. If it does..then s-off again using revolutionary then FLASH an OFFICIAL RUU not a LEAK!!
If that dont work HTCDEV.com it is mate
I hope this helps.. I not at all experienced much either, but know enough to watch my arse and be careful. You may need an experienced dev from xda to give you some advise

You zip the image 1st, so it's PG58IMG.zip THEN put into SDCARD and boot into bootloader 'power & vol-' together
It's 'already' unlocked via htc? damn man.... I really dont know then bud. You going s-on on a phone which is already s-off'd by htcdev.com was a waste of time really, because they already know it been unlocked whether you went back to s-on or not.

Right, turn off the phone, now take the .zip file off the sd card and boot into bootloader again but DONT press anything. just tell me what it says now at the top. What hboot number does it say?
You have a stock recovery now, so clicking on recovery inside boot loader takes you to that screen.

Hi guys
I have really strange problem, could you please help me out.
I am was using insert coin rom 4.4.1 and every thing was good so far,
Then i have realized that i have s- off and rooted my phone but i didn't super cid it
So i want to do that, i have supercid it by following the steps listed in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1192300.
After i reboot the phone, it stayed in the flash screen (HTC screen)
I have reinstalled the rom and even other roms, but nothing was done.
I have tried to reflash it using firmwire 3.24 but samething.
FYI: i have already supercid it i have checked it by adb and it is 11111111
There is small problem, i didn't remember my proper cid, all i know it is a europe version of sensation.
i have this written in recovery session:
REVOLUTIONARY
pyramid PUT ship s off RL

Please help me i am lost here, DONT TELL ME THAT I HAVE DAMAGED THE PHONE!!
Thanks
Not sure if this will help
Hey I am not sure about your problem not heard of this. Maybe you need to super cid before flashing new firmware. Maybe if you can remember what your cid was before, you can change back and see if it makes any difference. maybe once returned to the stock cid you can revert firmware and then super cid. I am not sure though! I am just taking a stab at it since no one else has answered. here is a link with some firmware and it also tells stock cid's for different carriers/countries. Also maybe try flashing different firmware.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1459767
maybe that will refresh your memory to what yours was.
Good Luck
P.S. I think that since you still have access to recovery you will be able to resolve the issue (not hard bricked yet), just need to figure out what the problem is exactly.
Given that you still have access to your SDcard, trying flashing a new rom and firmware (go for Virtuous Inquisition).

If you wanna use ARHD 3.6.13 you need to downgrade your firmware to 3.12 or 1.17 it won't run on 3.24
I would downgrade your firmware, go to a GB rom, get it so your phone boots, then go through the process of going back to ICS.

may be my SD card was damaged and it is the only problem of stucking???

Perhaps you accidentally set some sort of sharing protection on the SD card, which doesn't let the phone access the adequate files? If so, try reformatting your card on fat32. And then copy back the firmware/rom and attempt flashing again.
i have already formatted the SD card, coping Rom and firmwire PG58IMG reflash the rom .

What about RUU?

If your bootloader says LOCKED like you previously indicated then you can not use fastboot commands as kpjimmy already said. Because you never supercid your phone you probably have some partial firmware update.
If I were you I would flash an older RUU to get to a known stable config and then start over.
No i have changed the firmwire and it is written revolutionary in purple.

You have to remove the firmware from the card after flashing it. But to bypass it, does your phone boot once you flash the rom and then remove the sd card?

Hi,
Test whether you have it or not.
Code:
fastboot getvar cid
11111111 means you have super CID
Also,check THIS THREAD.
It's a great guide.
It will not do harm to the phone, its a safer bet when trying to update the firmware...
Just reminder: don't forget to delete the firmware file from your sd card... After installation of the firmware from the bootloader, it will ask to reset the phone. Just take out the battery. And load your sd card in your computer to delete the firmware file...

Need more details...
Stock?
Rooted?
S-on or s-off?
Custom recovery installed?
One thing is for sure, your phone isn't bricked and can be restored. The details of the device in the questions above are needed to determine exactly how to fix it though.
It sounds like your ROM got corrupted. (I can't even guess how) Ultimately you will be able to fix this by installing a new ROM. It's just a matter of figuring out what procedures you need to use based on your set up in order to do that.

Stock?
Rooted?
S-on or s-off?

It is stock, but i flashed it from gb to ics to try to resolve the problem. Rooted with htcdev, s-on. Also I installed CWM after it began to do that. I flashed a new hboot but that solved nothing, the next day it got worse and wouldn't even turn on.

you should used revolutionary.io method to S-OFF easily your device with that hboot version
that means that you have GB firmware and an ICS rom can't run in that fw version
while your are S-ON you should have installed 4ext recovery,enable smartflash from it and then flash a GB rom
after that you said you flashed a new hboot
i am not sure if you can do that as your are S-ON
and the result is not even turning on!
it seems to me that your device is bricked
use the unbricking project from dev section
edit:can you still enter to bootloader?

I cannot use revolutionary because i get the phone to go past the htc logo. I could only get into the bootloader. I upgraded from 1.18 to 1.27 so s-on didnt matter. I tried to unbrick but it said no device found.

from fastboot connect your device into the pc
go to the folder where you have adb and fastboot files
open a command window there and do
fastboot getvar version-main
i assume you have 3.32.or3.33 firmware but do it
if yes then from this thread do step 2

after that enable smartflash from recovery and flash an ics rom
Hi. First of all sorry for giving such a short description but im at work at the moment.
I tried to revert my desire s back to stock using ruu tmob uk file (I have tmobile uk version). It could not detect my mobile for some reason and I though its because of my hboot version which was 2.00xxx something. So I jave downloaded some pg88img.zip with older hboot 0.99.0000 and applied in bootlader mode. But still my hboot was 2.000 even after several reboots. But still ruu updater couldnt see my phone. Turns out that hyc sync needs to be uninstalled and that solved the problem. In the middle of updateing message appeared "wrong bootloader version" or smtg like that. Since then I only can access bootloader and fastboot. Hboot version is 0.99.0000 now and I get message on the top of the screen security warning. I tried so many things but nothing seems to work. I have got my buckup but cant flash because of locked bootloader. I cant use revolutionary method because I cant use adb. Htcdev method dont work either. Is there anything I can do?
I can give some more details once im back home. Cheers.
RUU_SAGA_ICS_35_S_HTC_EU_14.01.401.2_20.76.30.0835_3831.19.00.110_275068 solved my problem. Thanks

Lol, a new genius every day. Hboot 0.99 is for Incredible S.
Try 7.00.1002 as PG88IMG it may work. The other way is ICS RUU, then HtcDev, then downgrade
Thanks for the comment but as I said I was at work and everything I wrote was from my crap memory ;P Hboot i have now is 0.98.0000 S-on
I will try your suggestions. Thanks

OK, this is different.
You need 1.47 t-mobile RUU. Search through the forum there was a similar question recently and I posted a link to it.
