i just installed the Android Revolution HD™ 6.0.2 on my HTC SENSATION, but im stuck on the htc boot screen, its been like that for about 30-45 min...
did i do something wrong???
ive also did the reset and factory reset, then rebooted and still stuck on HTC WHITE SCREEN....
Can someone please help me out?
you need to flash the newest new firmware.
Yes the newest firmware is needed (hboot 1.23). And DO NOT revert back to hboot 1.17. The new roms will not boot off there and you'll run into boot loops.
can you send me the quick link? PLEASE

In addition to flashing your firmware, please confirm that you are SUPER CID already.

You need to flash the new firmware or your phone wont be able to boot.
Alternatively try flashing ARHD's Gingerbread Based ROM.

Hi,
In order to flash ICS ROMS you must first update firmware and radio.
Get the PG58IMG.zip with Firmware from 3.12.401.2/102 RUU HERE
Follow THIS GUIDE
Read everything CAREFULLY before proceeding.

Searched a whole lot but no solution!!
My sensation xe is stuck at splash screen with every rom or firmware I flash on it... I checked the MD5sums, corresponding firmware with rom and even the actual method of flashing.
Sensation xe is stuck. I am new to android flashing but have read almost everything about the sensation just not the solution.
Have you removed firmware pg58img.zip from SD card after updating?
Sent from my Pyramid-T
Yes, I have. I was aware of that from the first time I flashed firmware.
Are you able to boot to recovery? Did you superwipe before flashing?
Yes, superwipe. I am also able to boot to recovery.
I took all the necessary precautions as I have been bricked in the past. The thing is every rom you flash on the device gets stuck at boot screen.
hmmm...why not flash a RUU and do it all again? i mean re-do s-off,root and supercid
Is there maybe a way to create a device image or error script to see where it goes wrong because I have followed every guide to the letter here on the sensation forum.
I went trough firmware differences, flashing method, other bootloops/stucks threads. But there is no one with a solution or even the same problem.
So if you would have any Ideas I would appreciate it or do you know a developer here?

I have tried it with the appropriate Europe version and the latest beta of ICS(both XE dedicated). They boot got stuck on bootscreen to.
I am Revolutionary | pyramid ship s-off | 1.27.1100 | 11.22.3504.07_M
i am referring to flash the RUU with hboot 1.17 not the ics one
Will try that right now and I will get back to you.

I've always flashed super wipe, then rom, then updated firmware in that order. Perhaps worth a go?

Have tried that several times in the order you suggested. It does not work for me.
RUU also gets stick on bootscreen. Have you heard about this earlier.
Did you SuperCID? If not, are you using the right firmware package for your CID, and also If you are trying to upgrade your firware for a new ROM, and it's stuck at the HTC splash screen, maybe that's because the ROM you had before isn't compatible with the firmware, so just try to flash the new ROM in this case.
Hi guys,
After a lot of effort i managed to:
unlock bootloader
install CW 5
root the device
Now i need a reccomendation for an ICS or JB rom.
I need everything completely stable, that is highest priority, and after that comes the speed.
Please advise also about which kernel if i do need to change it?
I'm currently on GB.
I want to upgrade only with install zip from sd card if possible, from CW5 or whichever.
THANKS!
If you want an ics rom you will have to update your firmware to ics firmware which is 3.33 or 3.32.I believe you must be s off in order to do this. If your on gb right now to load any ics rom firmware must be updated.then once your ready I recommend to try out several roms for yourself and see which meets your needs best. Depending on your Rom, different kernels can be tired with the different roms. I'm running paranoid Android by Dragun Korr, it's jelly bean. My kernel is 3.0 51 by Dragun. I really love this rom. It's smooth fast and stable. However I suggest you try out several because everyone is different and has different opinions. It's always best to try for yourself and make your own conclusion. Hope this is helpful. Best wishes. Remember to do your nandroid backup before flashing so you can return to your old rom if need be. As long as firmware matches.
Have fun and experiment. I also recommend 4ext recovery. Some roms require it. And it's really a great recovery!

thanks a lot, i will try paranoid
can you please tell me how to upgrade to firmware 3.3? can i do it now while i'm still on GB?

but you must be S-OFF in order to ugrade your fw version
hm, when i tried to flash 3.33 i got installation aborted
didn't i s-off when i unlocked the bootloader? is it a different thing?

you can S-OFF with this method http://revolutionary.io/
yes, it was 1.18
i did it now and when it asked me to install recovery, i skipped it since i already have it, i hope that is ok

ok then
switch off your device
remove battery
insert it again
then hold power button and volume down together until it shows you the bootloader screen
in the top of the screen it will say S-OFF
now to upgrade firmware just follow the instructions in the link that i provided you
at the top it says PYRAMID PVT SHIP S-OFF RL
i went into recovery again and tried with the 3.32 as suggested and again, installation aborted, what am i doing wrong?
by the way, i really appreciate the support, it's a lot easier with this kind of help, and i work as a support member for other stuff so i know how it is..

that is your mistake.see the bold one as marked
upgrading the firmware version it can be done only via bootloader
it is not like roms or kernels.
see again the steps in the link on how to upgrade the firmware.you missed something
and yes you are S-OFF
yeah, it should find the new zip automatically, the problem is that i didn't get that
but you are correct, i tried again and now it worked!
installing new ROM now, finally
hopefully that will go without problems
thanks again
Hi also 4ext recovery is recommended. You can get download on xda or play store. It's really a great recovery and almost all use it. Its very easy to use and I believe some roms require it. You can download after installation of rom. If you have issues with download try 4ext. You won't be sorry. It's a great recovery
Sent from my HTC Sensation
thanks,
yes i've been using it since the first guy responded i should try 4ext
not bad, i admit
Hi there.
I strongly suggest Android Revolution HD. I've been using it now for almost 2 weeks and its rock solid.
Its very smooth with decent battery life and you get some sick mods for it!
There is a link to the ROM in my signature.
I have HTC Sensation XE and a few days ago, i was just tried to install a Custom Rom by CM10. I found a video on Youtube that there only three steps to do that (Flashing a Custom Rom with S-ON)!
1. Unlock Bootloader (and I've done!)
2. Install Recovery (CWM Recovery Touch)
3. Flash the Custom ROM
And I tried that all...
Everything looks fine, from the moment i install the Recovery and then the Custom Rom, but its stuck on the HTC Logo. Power Off, and then Stuck on HTC Logo again, and again... It never stopped! And the backdoor just getting HOT!
I tried to wipe cache and dalvik cache and all the things i used to be doing when i flash a Rom. But the problem still exist.
Then I flash the Stock Rom with this Recovery (Since I forgot to make a back up system), and its fine, although the wifi isn't working!
Then i searching somewhere and found that the Recovery is 4EXT, and the I flashed the 4EXT Recovery and its succeed.
Then I tried to Flash the Custom ROM again, but I found the same problem, another bootloop.
I tried everything i could find in here, but it's nothing...
It's about 2 days and i can't do anything with my Sensation XE.
All i know about my HTC Status is, S-ON, Unlocked and the HBOOT 1.29.0000
is there any easy to understand way to make My Sensation XE Back?
Please Help...
Thanks in advance...

Hi,
In 4 EXT ,did you enable "Smartflash" just before flashing the ROM ?
For more information ,look HERE
Then
Don't know if this works with Hboot 1.29, but you could try to relock Hboot and flash the appropriate RUU for your device. Then you can start again.:good:
Edit: I just made a quick post on how I solved a similar problem here.
Good luck.

At least your phone is working again. :highfive:
But of course you can flash custom ROMs.
If you want to stay S-ON, you will have to unlock the hboot again and then I suggest using this guide.
Or you could read every sticky in this forum before doing anything else and then follow one of the S-OFF guides like this one, which is what I'm going to do. :good:
Happy hacking.
