Alright I'm sorry if this has already happened to someone and they've posted about it. I couldn't find any threads about this, which is not surprising to me as this was a stupid mistake that most likely users here wouldn't make.
I have an HTC Sensation.
I wanted to run the ARHD XE rom 6.5.1.
Completed S-off, installed CWM, and successfully rooted device.
I then downloaded the following zip files and put them onto the sd card to be flashed.
PG58IMG.zip(firmware package)
SuperWipe
The rom itself
I also installed 4EXT.
I also completed the process where you write in the command line with the phone hooked up. the phone reboots a bunch of times during the process, I don't remember the name of the step. but I completed it successfully. I remember the step "allows you to flash any rom"
after I had the rom downloaded(took the longest to download and was the last thing I transferred to the sd card.)
I unplugged the phone then booted into bootloader, where I had planned to continue into CWM recovery to flash the zips.
but once I entered the white screened boot loader, the phone instantly read through the sd card and found the firmware update, began checking it, I briefly saw( and see) a message or two saying that no image or file was found, then it loads up a list like this:
Parsing....[sd zip]
1.SBL1
2.SBL2
3.SBL3
4.TRUST_ZONE
5.ADSP
6.BOOTLOADER
7.RPM
8.RADIO_V2
And it says " Do you want to start update?"
The first time this happened I said no, and the phone just rebooted.
So I turned it off and went back into the bootloader and it asked me the same question and it didn't(doesn't) let me do anything else so I figured(being dumb and not checking online first) that I was supposed to let it update and said "yes". It then went(and goes) through the process of updating the firmware(I'm guessing) and after it gets done, the only option I have is to reboot the phone, and after this all happened, the phone is now locked in a boot loop, "htc" then "htc quietly brilliant" then it starts over.
after reading I now know that your supposed to enter the command line again when your going to update the firmware. I'm so screwed if I bricked my phone.
Please help me out anyone if there's anyway I fix or save my phone.
Thank you in advance.
UPDATE: I took out the sd card, then booted into bootloader, then after I got into 4ext, I put the sd card back in, I am now doing a restore.
UPDATE 2: system restore didn't work, and I think it's because I installed 4ext after I made my backup, i made the backup with CWM. :/
two post down from yous is my post {fix} for 3.24-3.32 firm bootloopsgive it a read youll be good to go
Your system restore should work regardless when you installed 4EXT. It just acts as a unique touch interface if you didn't have it before? If you installed new firmware, then it might be because you need to flash the old firmware from your backup
Mate, you said yourself what the problem was..
Place PG58IMG.zip on sd, boot into recovery, let it update, after update put SD card in computer and delete the PG58IMG.zip. FIXXED!!!
Remove your sdcard, boot into hboot, keep the phone on, insert the sdcard, choose recovery and continue
next rename or delete the PG58IMG.zip
I have a rooted sensation, it had android revolution hd's last version (with gingerbread)... now yesterday I tried installing the latest version of it Android revolution HD 7.2 by mike 1986 ... every time i finish installation and reboot, it just freezes onto the start-up screen where it says beats audio , I then remove the battery
someone suggested flashing 3.33 firmware and ARHD rom .
. Now will I have to install ARHD7.2 again after flashing firmware ?!
.What version of the firmware is suitable for my phone sensation T-mobile (shows sensation XE in the settings because of ARHD)

yeap you have to upgrade your fw version first
flash 3.33fw as suggested
after that flash again the rom
don't worry about the info(sensation xe)
the info are taken from build.prop file which is located in system folder of the internal storage
this file can be edited which means you can change the name of the device with any file manager with root permissions
but there is no need to do anything
just upgrade the fw version and then flash the rom

Hi Guys,
Got a bit of a problem, got a sensation xe and tonight i did the s-off and rooted then tried to put a new rom on but it just bootlooped so went to recovery and did a restore and all was ok,
rooted it again and put the PG58IMG back on did the update then it just went as far as the beats logo and looped.
i tried to get into recovery but it wouldnt go and just kept saying no image or wrong image every time i tried, i read some similar threads to this and so eventually i took out the sd card and then got back into recovery but doing a restore didnt work,
took the sd card out and using the pc deleted the PG58IMG which i thought might be causing the problem, tried recovery and it started again but on rebooting it just bootloops again, can anybody help me?
Need to know exactly what you did at the time of flashing? What steps have you done and what ROM?

Ok i followed the guide on here....http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1192300 got s-off and root.
tried to super cid and couldnt get it done anyway got s-off and rooted put the PG58IMG in root updated and then took it out of root then tried to put the darkforest sensation xe ics 3.2.1 rom on, got bootloop then went to recovery and did a restore, everything was then ok.
Checked the phone and it was unrooted so did another complete backup looked to see what might be wrong and i thought i had put the wrong PG58IMG on so i went and put what i thought was the right PG58IMG on updated it and then rebooted and it went into a bootloop.
Tried to do a recovery but would not allow it it just kept running through "no image" then "wrong image" then "no image" and so on.
Tried to get into recovery but wouldnt move down so after reading a similar thread i pulled the sim and got into recovery selected the first of the two restore options and it was restoring from cwd rebooted and it started on a bootloop again going to the beats logo this time.
Thank for your help btw.
Forgot to add it was the revolution system. Thanks for any help!

To install ICS roms you need an additional step. Before installing the rom you should supercid and install the new ICS firmware. You can find the link on the second line of darkforest sensation xe ics 3.2.1.
If don't want to supercid follow the instruction here and download the firmware package for your CID (3.24, revolutionary or normal).
Install the new firmware.
Remove the PG58IMG from your sd card
Install the ICS rom.

You don't root with PG58IMG, that's for the custom recovery. Have you installed the su-2.3.6.3-ef-signed.zip file from the guide?
Hi, yes i have the su-2.3.6.3-ef-signed.zip installed and have removed the PG58IMG from the sd card, but as i say the thing is just boot looping after the beats logo and i would like to find out the next steps to get things back to normal?
Thanks grandelama can you tell me my next move to get back to normal and out of bootloop?
What ROM do you currently have on your phone that doesn't boot? Stock or Darkforest or something else? I'm not sure what rom you restored from the backup... If you restored the Darkforest rom and didn't install the correct firmware as Grandelama said, it will get stuck in a bootloop. If you did install the firmware, try reinstalling the Darkforest rom.
Otherwise, to get your phone working, just do a full wipe in recovery and try to install any gingerbread based rom, for example Android Revolution HD 3.6.13 from here. It should install fine and get your phone to a working condition. Then you can try to get superCID and install the firmware if you want to use ICS roms.
If you have Clockworkmod working and are going to install custom roms anyway, you don't need to worry about installing the su-2.3.6.3-ef-signed.zip file, since all those custom roms are already rooted.
If you have completed without errors the points 1, 2 and 3 of the guide, and you can use Clockworkmod recovery you are now ready to install any NON ICS rom like Android Revolution HD 3.6.13.
Run the superwipe script in Android revolution HD thread, install the 3.6.13 rom and you should boot up allright
If you want to use an ICS rom your missing a step (new firmware) and you need to follow the instructions I gave you in the last post.
Ok thanks guys, i'll try that and let you know how i get on.
Dr Madman i tried the dark forest rom but it wouldnt load so went into recovery and went back to the original stock gingerbread then thinking i had put the wrong 58img changed it and updated but it just bootloaded so did a cwm restore and it still bootloads.
I'm still not sure just what to do next because i'm afraid i might make things worse.
I went into recovery then to backup and restore and then restore and this time restored the second image that was there in CWM it went thru all the recovery, asked to reboot and when i did it still keeps bootlooping.
Why is CWM not getting me back to stock?
Grandelama i'm certain i did what you suggested in your first post but got bootloop after that and CWM got me back but it hasnt worked this time!
Dr Madman,, i could do a wipedata/factory rest wipe cache partition and install Android Revolution HD 3.6.13 because its on the sd card but to be honest i'm just to frightened to at the moment, basically i wanted to go to restore and have it back as stock but it wont! and now i'm not sure which way to go?

If you did what I suggested you have installed the 3.24 firmware for ICS roms, am I right?
Can you tell which exact version did you install? Where did you download it from? The one from the Kohr-Ah thread...mike1986's version or what?
If you installed mike1986's version without Supercid first you will bootloop with both ICS and Gingerbread roms.
yes
Yes i am certain i did but not sure which one, heads all over the place with this, anyway i will check and get back to you.
Thanks.
Grandelama i think? this is the one i used......DOWNLOAD 3.24 Revolutionary: http://goo.gl/82UpA
MD5: 74e67609f67c3ad6ab94cdb89f19f2fa
Is there a way to find out for sure for you?
Thanks
Do you still have on your pc the zip package you used? If that's the case you can find the md5 of your file and with that you can know which firmware package you installed.
Maybe it's a stupid question, but can you tell me which is exactly your CID? What is the output you get with "fastboot getvar cid"? Are 100% you sure you installed exactly the firmware package for your CID?
Grandelama, firstly thanks for your help, i have a hero that i have rooted and had at least a dozen different roms on from 1.6 thru to 2.3 never had a problem but its been a while and this xe is it seems more complicated, either that or my brains going (more likely) anyway the CID is HTC--001 and the MID is pg5813001.
I will look and see what i have and let you know.
The phone i take it is not yet bricked??? so i really dont want to do anything to screw that up(unless its too late?)
I ran restore and got back to normal, should have left it at that but didnt and cant understand why it wont work this time, i thought thats what it was for.
Anyway i will get back to you with what info i have and thanks again
no, not now 100 sure!
Htc driver 3.0.0.007
v4.3.233.pub.odex.zip
revolutionary -0.4pre4
su-2.3.63-efgh-
darkforest sensation xe ics 3.2.1
PG58IMG
Android revolution hd sensation 3.6.13
This is what else i have plus i have a xe backup folder on the pc if this is of any use ?
is this what you are asking for?

Hi,
i had the exact same problem and yesterday i solved it. I tried to flash the latest InsertCoin ICS ROM and failed to first install the new Firmware. When i realized this, i did it but forgot to check the CID, wich was not in the FW-zip.. so.. my phone just bootlooped, came to the splashscreen the rebooted. Your phone is not bricked.
This is what i did to solve it:
First i got Super-CID wich you can read about in this thread: [Guide] to Installing S-off, Unlocking, ClockWork, Root, SuperCID & S-on .. it took me about 30 sec to get Super-CID, its very easy if you just read the text.
Then i flashed the new Firmware (3.24.401.1 RUU) that you can find here [DEV] HTC Sensation & HTC Sensation XE firmware | Partitions Info | [22.01.2012]
After that i just flashed the ROM like before and voila, it worked.
Hope it helped some.
Hi all,
I have a problem with my Sensation due to my own fault.
I want to flash ARHD ICS rom to my phone, and I started with rooting my Sensation. I followed all instruction til installing the Recovery (PG58IMG).
I downloaded two versions of PG58IMG (one for ICS and one for the other), but I copied the firmware for ICS version to my SD card and already installed it. Now, my phone already S-off but cannot reboot into homescreen. It keeps rebooting it self in white hTC screen (after I installed the ICS firmware).
I don't know how to fix. I tried to read the troubleshoot in the post but I still cannot fix it. Does anyone have a solution??
Thanks in advance

If I understand you correctly you flashed the firmware upgrade BEFORE you flashed the new ICS rom? If so you'll need to get your sdcard card out (and get your computer to read it) so you can rename the PG85img on your sdcard so you can get back into recovery so you can flash the new ICS rom.

Yes, I flashed the upgraded firmware before not only I flashed ICS rom, but also I get rooted. Now, I can't flash any rom as well as su-2.3.6.1-ef-signed.zip or su-2.3.6.3-efgh-signed.zip.
It still keep bootlooping. I tried to flash the other firmware, but it showed 'CID incorrect'. I don't know how to fix now
Did you check MD5 Sums before you flashed the ROM because it sounds like a bad download so re-download the ROM and reflash

I did check MD5 sums for all files I downloaded and it is corrected.
Now, I'm curious that whether it is possible to flash the upgraded firmware before being rooted.
And of course you need to be using the right version of the firmware for the rom you want to flash. Mike's latest uses 3.24 per here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1459767
I don't know if you can get into fastboot or not, but you should be able to check the CID of your phone there, and download the right firmware for your phone. If your phone is carrier independent (i.e. didn't get on contract) then the HTC__xxx variety should be good.

Thank you so much for your link. I can boot my Sensation into the homescreen now. For my problem, I have to download and flash the older version (3.17) to fix it.
Thanks all of you for your reply again.
+1 for me, solve with a new download .
Just flash the Mod, the bootloop is normal.
I got the same problem, before i flashed Revolution Rom i used that radio package. After the radio package flash, my phone wass stuck in a bootloop.
I took the memory card out en removed the zip file en flashed the revolution rom. After that my phone started normal.
SOrry for the bad enlgish.
Good luck mate.
hey, guys i just had the same problem, kinda. lol
anyways my phone is rooted, s-off and superCID
when i went to install the new ics rom i did everything this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1459767
said to do and when the new root booted up for the first time, it would go up to the beats audio logo,( the ics rom with beats audio (xe)) then like restart back to the htc startup logo, then beats again then htc again, it just kept doing this..??
so i just deleated everything and restored back to origional backup rom.
so what did i do wrong?
a bad download link/file? can u give me a good one?
thanks, any help is greatly appreciated as iam totally lost right now...
edit:
also do i even need this file (PG58IMG.zip.) to flash the ics rom if my phone is superCID ??? iam confused on that part.
nevermind, figured it out and got it work! the new ics is pretty sweet!!
thanks for everything- towards all the developers and testers on here
Cool. The answer is yes of course. The firmware file contains a specific radio / hboot / etc version. The ROM you download and install is dependent on certain combinations of the firmware versions you have. The super cid just allows you to flash any of the firmwares available here... Otherwise you have to find the specific one for your region and/or carrier.
Also, don't forget you can use an adb logcat while your phone is booting to see if you can diagnose any boot-looping issues. Just run that command on your PC with your phone attached via USB cable

To do so,
1. Download the correct firmware version ( PG58IMG.zip V3.24 ) and copy it to the root of your SDCARD.
Be 200% sure that the downloaded zip file is not corrupted. ( Check the MD5 checksum after you download)
2. Pull Back the battery and wait for a minute.
3. Put the battery and press POWER+VOLUME Down Key together.
4. Your phone will detect the firmware.
5. Follow the screen and complete the flashing.
6. Download the ICS based ROM of your favor.
7. Boot into recovery and flash your rom.

No you didn't do everything the thread said to do because you're stuck in a bootloop. And yes, you must have correct firmware to run any ICS ROM.
1. SuperCID.
2. Load correct firmware for ROM version you wish to flash (there are 3 different firmwares, 3.06, 3.12 and 3.24. Make sure you've got the right one.
Put PG58IMG.zip on the root of your damn SD card.
Put the ROM you want on the root of your damn SD card.
Put a wipe or superwipe script on the root of your damn SD card.
So far it's easy, no?
Boot to bootloader, select FASTBOOT, select yes to update.
Watch the phone. You should see it flash some partitions, reboot itself, then flash the radio and some other crap.
When done you should be at correct HBOOT and radio.
Now, pull the battery. Pull the SD card.
Insert the battery. Start the phone with power + Volume down.
Move cursor to recovery.
Insert SD card and select recovery.
Flash the wipe script, flash the ROM.
Now if you did everything exactly like this, you will boot to normal phone in about 10 minutes or so.
This has been spelled out 50 times in 50 threads, including threads devoted to nothing but this procedure.
Your phone is a machine. It can only do what you tell it to do. If you screw up, it's screwed up. If you do everything exactly right, in the right order, carefully checking each step, your phone will behave.
Try again.
Do it right. Do it carefully.

Okay, here is everything I did.
I came from Android Revolution HD 4.1.13 to Android Revolution HD 6.4.0
Not my first time doing ADB and what not but here's what I did.
1. I updated my HTC Drivers with HTCDriver 3.0.0.013_x64
2. I completed SuperCID "11111111" (Eight 1's) everything came out good, my phone was recognized and all.
3. I download Firmware from "3.32.401.3 & 3.32.401.103 RUU". Placed the firmware in the root of my SD Card.
4. I downloaded Android Revolution HD 6.4.0 and placed that in my SD Card.
5. I took off fastboot, rebooted my phone and I updated my phone to the new firmware with no shown errors.
6. After I updated my firmware my phone just keeps rebooting in a never ending cycle.
7. I removed my SD Card, put it in another device and deleted "PG58IMG" thinking that would solve the issue.
8. After I deleted PG58IMG it allowed my to enter recovery so I did. I erased and formatted everything. Then I Super Wiped and then I installed the ROM with no errors.
9. I rebooted my phone and it just keeps looping...
Help, please!

I did the same thing from step 3. Didn't have a problem booting. If you did a back up of 4.1.13, it's not going to boot up with new firmware. Maybe download again or reflash or format sd card?
Reboot at 6 is caused by attempting to boot old rom with new fw.
At 9, do you mean you flashed the new rom or restored backup?

After you flashed the new firmware did you remove the firmware file and reboot into recovery and install the proper ROM for the new firmware?
After firmware upgrade you should imediately flash the rom that goes with that firmware.

After you flashed the new firmware did you remove the firmware file and reboot into recovery and install the proper ROM for the new firmware?
After firmware upgrade you should imediately flash the rom that goes with that firmware.

After I flashed PG58IMG it just kept rebooting. I have not been able to enter my phone and delete it myself, I can only enter Recovery & Bootloader.. I had to remove my SD card, put it in another device and the delete PG58IMG through that device.

mmm. I'm struggling. I wonder I'd the radio version in 3.32 fw is giving problems with this rom? Maybe it's worth trying different fw.
To get a working phone there us always the option to run ruu.

Hi i was trying to upgrade to an ics rom (elegancia or android rev hd) and i got stuck in a bootloop. what i did was I turned S-Off and downloaded the revolution clockworkmod which worked out fine. Then I rooted the phone by flashing a superuser file which worked, and finally i tried flashing mikes PG58IMG.zip firmware update, mi CID is T-MOB010 which is not supported so i followed the instructions and added it to the android-info.txt file. when i tried to install it it said "CID incorrect! Update Fail! Press <power> to reboot" and i went into a bootloop without letting me access the recovery. I was able to acces it later by taking the sd card out.
I tried deleting all data and tried a nadroid restore which didnt work. Then I tried deleting the mikes update file and installed a correct one which i found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1459767 this took off the error message but Im still stuck in a bootloop, Now every time i go to recovery it tells me if i want to install the file again and if i dont install it it makes me reboot.
At this point I just need my phone to work with or without a rom
I think i am on 2.3.4 (I just got this phone)
HBOOT 1.27.1100
Any Advice?

Is the boot.img still on your sd card? You won't be able to get past it without deleting the image off your card. To do that you're going to have to plug the SD in to a computer and remove the file manually.

if you got 4ext recovery on the phone you can take the memory card out, boot into recovery, plug in the memory card, mount the memory card through recovery and connect with your computer.
That way you will be able to place a zip file with the ROM you want and delete the p58 file.
You can't boot unless you have an ics ROM
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using xda premium
my radio version is 11.22.3504.07_M
I cant install 4ext because the updater is an app and i can only go to recovery
So i should delete the p58 file and the boot.img and then flash an ICS rom (elegancia)?
I finally got it to work by removing the p58 file and flashing the rom.
thanks guys
Hey guys,
Having some problems with this ROM. I downloaded the ZIP, used Titanium backup to back it all up, and flashed the Rom with no problems at all...got through all the screens and whatnot, and upon launching for the first time it's stuck on the "Beats Audio" screen. Not really sure why or what happened. I'm coming from MIUI ROM and haven't had issues with flashing any other ROM before.
One thing I noticed is on the HD 7.3 first page there is a firmware update that you apparently need before you flash the ROM but all links are 404/not found.
Wondering if any of you pros can offer a hand?

In looking at my Hboot, it's old as sin....I'm using Revolutionary Hboot 1.17.1111 and Radio 10.14.9035.01_M
I run clockwork recovery mod v5.0.2.0 as well. This could be an issue causing the problem. I've been using the MIUI ROM for probably 2 years or so because I enjoyed it but I'm ready for a change. Apparently my phone doesn't agree. lol.
You want me to connect via USB and run the cmd prompt for the getvar command and let you know what it says?

there is no need to do it now
you gave me exactly what i need
you still have gb firmware that's why you can't boot ARHD 7.3(ics rom)
see this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1459767
flash 3.33 universal
follow the instructions to the letter
and before flashing check md5 sums(important)
The speedy reply is much appreciated.
I'll go ahead and update the firmware and see where that lands me. I figured it could have been a problem from the get go but in the original thread for the HD 7.3 Rom the firmware link has been removed (likely since it was from 2011)
Thanks for the point in the right direction Rzr, and I'll let you know how it goes!

Hmmm....the firmware update didn't work.
I can verify that I'm on the firmware 3.3, Hboot is 1.27.1100, Radio is 11.24A.3504.31_M.
Each time Hboot is run it asks if I want to start the update. If I select yes, I've got 9 on screen options that it runs through and tells me "Update complete. Press power to reboot" The only way to do anything at all is to take out the SD card so it does not try to load up the firmware zip
Pushing power reboots the phone on an endless boot loop. Regardless of what ROM is being used (I also downloaded cyanogenmod) I can not make it past the spash screen.
Could it be that I'm just flashing the ROM incorrectly? To my knowledge I've followed instructions for both and have backed up my phone and it's contents and done everything from a factory reset/wipe to wiping the dalvik cache, etc. I didn't have this many problems rooting my phone and putting on MIUI to begin with and have flashed ROMS before with no trouble....not really sure where I'm going wrong on this one.
Anyway, I'll await your reply.
Thank you!

Update: awww frick. So now it looks like this will be more difficult....I hope you like a challenge. I can now no longer get into my phone. It appears that it's soft bricked. I have tried going to a clockwork mod recovery from my first MIUI in 2012, it goes through the entire process of factory resetting restoring the boot image, system and data information. It asks for a reboot which I do. It goes to the white HTC splash screen and the MIUI initializes and goes black immediately. There doesn't seem to be a way to get my phone connected to my computer to get into the SD card to troubleshoot from inside the phone. Hopefully one of you guys has the answer for me. Is there any way to get into it via bootloader usb?

remove the pg58img.zip from your sdcard so it won't scan and identify any pg58img.zip file
and don't restore your miui rom because probably is a gb one and now you have an ics firmware installed
just download an ics or jb rom
put it on your sdcard
full wipe from recovery
flash the rom
done

With the phone being in a boot loop I can't get it detected by my computer to remove/add anything from the SD card. I do have the HD 7.3 ROM on and the Gapps that's required but it never makes it past the "beats audio" splash screen. I have no idea what's going on with it but will try any suggestions you've got up your sleeve.
Ahhhhh....I've gotten a fix for this!
I was unable to do anything because of the update zip which wanted me to update every time bootloader was initiated. By keeping my case off I removed my SD card to be able to boot in recovery and then put the SD card back in to load the HD 7.3 zip from the card. This seemed to take care of the problem.
Thanks for the help Rzr
