Hello folks!
First off I hope this problem hasn't been posted previously since I searched and couldn't find it.
I have on my HTC sensation the Android Revolution _HD-Sensation_3.6.11 or 3.6.2 I for some reason have two on my computer and can't remember which one I put in. The phone's HBOOT is 1.17.1111 and I can't remember when I put that update in either. My concern is that I want to update the software as I'm noticing some issues with the phone again and so downloaded the Android Revolution HD 6.5.1 for HTC Sensation from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1098849
Upon putting said zipped file in SD card and going into bootloader it t says the message above: "Loading...[PG58DIAG.zip] No img" and below that: "Loading...[PG58DIAG.nbh] No img or Wrong img" It repeats like that on the screen. I remember having this issue before as well when I updated the phone last, so I downloaded, as I was instructed to, "PG58IMG" and mounted it on the SD card. It fixed the problem then, so doing it again this time it didn't fix the problem for me. First off, I hope I have the correct ROM as trying to search for the updated version of the ROM I have I was unsuccessful in. So then I decided let's do this since it has ICS. I appreciate any and all help. Thanks in advance.
Are you running the latest firmware ? 3.32 is needed for ARHD 6.5.1
Also, you said you where using [PG58DIAG.zip] It should be PG58IMG i think you maybe using the wrong file,
Im still a noob, i only had this sensation 2 days so i maybe wrong.

HBOOT 1.17.1111 will work with GB ROMs but not ICS ROMs.
You need to flash the appropriate firmware and as stated PG58IMG.zip is the correct filename on the SDcard. After flashing pop out the card while it boots up reinsert the SDcard and delete/rename the PG58IMG.zip file.
Look in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1459767 for the firmware. I've seen folks posting problems with the most recent firmware but haven't followed them.
I guess Mike's ARHD thread should have firmware in it with some guidance.

Good sir or madame?, thank you quite very much. I have visited the link and it all seems quite easy. I also understand the mistake I have made. I will be working on the flash possibly tomorrow when I have more time at hand to do it all. I also appreciate your feedback along with the link.

One last question if I may, I noticed on the threads that there were apps and even built in features which would back up my phone, including my sms text messages. Now I'll follow the advice on the thread and remove sim card for the just in case (but since all contacts are synced to Google account it won't matter), what I really wanna back are all my text message conversations, not even so much the apps themselves as I can always re-download them later on. I want to back up my music playlist as well if it's possible at all. I know I'll have it all on my SD card, but the playlists are all on the phone itself and that is what I really want to back up. I thank you all once again for all the feedback as well as the help provided, wish me luck for I'll be at it tomorrow.

There are two main backup methods:
1 Nandroid Backup/Recovery. You do this via your recovery, e.g. CWM. This is a whole phone backup.
2 An app like Titanium, with this you can backup and recover apps and their data individually. If you go down this route DO NOT restore any system apps if you change ROMs as it'll cause problems. Restoring your downloaded apps and data is fine. You can "probably" restore some system data, like SMS. Before you recover any system data DO A NANDROID BACKUP first so if it screws up anything you can just restore the phone to its previous state.
Use SMS Backup & Restore or SMS Backup+ for backup Your SMS.
I think titanium backup is suitable for music playlists.
Sensation stuck on boot
Hey guys, So I initiated flash today and have come across a slight problem;
I followed the guides on here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=21711154#post21711154
and here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=21989107
I saw that the first thing to have done was install 4ext recovery. I followed the read me and tried the "adb reboot bootloader" but it kept saying device not found. Then I noticed I had it already in my phone, so I ran the backup and it said back up complete. So then I turned off the phone, rebooted into bootloader and waited for the update. However, it said "error invalid CID and can't update. Press power to reboot" It was the only option given. So then, I followed the guide on Kohr-Ah's page and took out the SD card, rebooted into bootloader, went to Recovery, ran superwipe and installed ARHD 6.5.1 with Beats Audio. After everything went done and well, it rebooted and turns on but once the beats logo completes its circle, it gets stuck on the beats page. I ran the wipe again, and reinstalled ARHD and still gives the same result. Any body know how I can solve it?
I also forgot to say that when I try to install the PG581IMG (the firmware) it says:
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Installing update package...
Installation aborted.
Hello, first I would like to apologize as I am clearly a noob and have very little idea of what I am talking about.
I'm sure my problem has been asked before and that if I had any idea what the problem was, I could find the exact solution I need here on the forums. Unfortunately I don't even know what to search for. If any one would like to complain go ahead but please..just help me.
So I decided to root my HTC Sensation, which I believe I did without any problem, I followed the guide on this site. Nothing went wrong and as far as I was aware everything was working fine.
I then decided to flash a new ROM onto the phone. I chose the Android Revolution HD as this looked to be the popular choice. I got it from here and I believed I had followed the instructions on how to install it properly.
However, after installing the ROM I came upon a problem, the phone would not start, it would just go to the HTC boot screen and stay there forever. At first I couldn't even get back to the hboot screen, but after inserting a new and better charged battery I was able to get there, but every time I do it attempts to update and says " CID incorrect! Update Fail! Press <POWER> to reboot." and I cant do anything but get stuck in this continuous loop.
If I take the SD card out I can access the HBOOT properly, however trying to do a recovery at this point doesn't seem to work.
I have no idea what to do and would appreciate any help anyone can give me. I would be happy to just have my phone back to the way it was originally.
Thanks
Might wanna try a RUU? not sure but hopefully it should do..

First off your MAJOR issue is that you flashed a rom for the Desire HD section(As soon as I clicked on your link, it said Android Revolution 7.0.2... I was like wtf? There is no 7.0.2 on the sensation forum) ... I think that's the prob... for now! Flash the correct rom and stay in the right section!
Second, I don't see why you can't get into recovery. Remove your sd card, power on the phone by holding vol-down +power to get to bootloader, select recovery and flash the right rom. I would also recommend that you delete the P58IMG.zip off your sd card as well. I'm assuming you have it on there for the ICS firmware but flashed the incorrect rom. You are far from bricking it, but keep this up and it might turn into one!
Thanks, your post is certainly reasuring though I am still not sure how to continue. Also it is possible I gave the wrong link to the rom I used, though it definitely was the same name.
Anyway what Im thinking I have to do now is 1st delete p58img.zip file from my SDcard and put the right rom on there, could you link to one?
So by removing that file I should be able to access the SDcard again and flash the new rom?

Here's the right link
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1098849
This is an ICS (Ice Cream Sandwich) Rom
So you need:
1) SuperCID (so that you can flash any firmware)
Instructions
2) Flash the ICS firmware (otherwise you can't use the ICS roms)
http://goo.gl/RcbMy (and make SURE that there aren't any errors - errors such as not doing the SuperCID process correctly, therefore it can't flash - I say this because it seems like many users think the firmware is flashed and then find out their rom won't start, so don't be stupid and check whether or not an error has occurred just incase!)
3) Pick a rom
Revolution
Elegancia
Insert Coin
4) Flash the 4EXT recovery, I'm sure you already have clockwork mod on there but I think that's a bit buggier... so if I were you, I'd go for the 4EXT touch recovery
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1377759
5) If you wish, you can also flash for example: tweaks and addons by awsm devs which make our phone much better if you wish!
6) you're good to go! It's that easy.
Yeah, all you have to do is remove that P58IMG.zip from your sd card and your bootloader won't force you to update or w/e. You'll be fine.
And don't forget to md5 check for roms you download !

Thank you very much. It seems I hadn't performed the SuperCID part. Once I had done that I installed Elegancia and it is working perfectly.
Thanks again for your help, I really appreciate you taking the time to explain that to me.
I rooted my HTC Desire S after downgrading it's HBOOT from 2.00 to 1.47 something. I was not satisfied by using customised ROMs with lots of bugs so I flashed stock ROM HTC Saga Asia India and then updated it by mistake or you can say foolishly. Now my phone is not booting and it is stopped on logo screen. I tried to use recovery but it just wiped data and and reboots when I select Install Zip from sd card.
Any fix for this? I have to go to HTC care center or it can be sorted out at home? Thanks in advance.
hi,
i thing you have been flashed wrong RUU, or your procedure is wrong,
have you know your phone's cid
post here your phone's cid, anyone suggest you which ruu file you have to flash.
If you could explain properly and in proper readable font, what steps exactly did you perform to reach this phone state - people would help. As it is, my eyes hurt from looking at your post, I only see huge letters and can't read anything out of them.
it's same case with me..
and now i need some help too

I suggest you read this http://forum.xda-developers.com/sho...[GUIDE] How to be a New User (and not a noob)
I know you've been told to stop tagging your problems on the bottom of others, if I've noticed your posts then I'm sure a mod has.
I am praying that someone can help me, today i think i have done something really stupid in that i am still new to flashing ROMS etc but have unlocked my bootloader through HTC DEV website, following the below link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1631861&highlight=hboot+1+27+flashing+rom
Anyway i did this a while ago and have had a few ROM's installed with no issues, for the past month i have been using the VIPER 1.4.1 ROM with no issues but experienced a big battery drain so i decided after a bit of investigation to install a new Kernal to replace the Bricked one that i already installed.
Anyway flashed a new kernal using the VENOM hub and the phone rebooted and this is where all my issues started it refused to go past the white HTC screen and will not boot the phone any further...............now i'm stuck!!!
I have been all over the web researching into how to fix this and have formatted my sd card stupidly as i have read that my backups would have fixed this but i deleted these files so now i am completley out of ideas as i cannot get past the white screen.
I have also tried reinstalling the ROM after a full wipe along with also reinstalling the Bricked kernal and also trying to install another ROM but still no luck.
I am able to boot the phone into recovery (4EXT) but after everything i do the phone will not go past the white screen.
I have tried looking through the many posts and done numerous searches but i cannot find anything to help me, i have even tried to reflash the boot.img using the cmd prompt but the HTC Sync software keeps failing as i have Windows 7 because it will not install "HTC Driver Installer 4.0.0.009".
Any help would be great as i really don't want to be the owner of an expensive paper weight, also i am still new and struggle with techy language if you can help me.
Also i would have tried to ask the qusetion on the Venom forum page but my XDA profile won't let me as i am usually a lerker because of my newness to flashing ROM's.
Cheers in advance if you can help me!!!
when you flashed the new kernel the only thing you had to do is flash the boot.img
now do this:
enable smartflash from 4ext and immediately flash the rom

Hi,
If you want the new windows 7 & 8 drivers,look HERE
Reboot the pc when updated.
Try just flashing ARHD ROM
This is nearer stock.
Do not add any fancy extras,just stock.
Go to 4 EXT recovery,enable smartflash,and flash ROM straight away.
If this does not work,you will have to consider a RUU.

Thanks for all your help but i still can't get it to go beyond the HTC white screen no matter what i do.
Luckily i am near the end of my contract so have begun the process of picking my new phone as we speak a little earlier than i would have liked but i only have myself to blame!!
I had a ATT inspire 4G running on android 2.2
I rooted and installed CWS with easy ace root. worked perfectly
then following another guide I found, I tried to flash update-aospX-1.0.0-AR26-DesireHD-signed using recovery.
But my phone was stuck on the white HTC screen and didn't go anywhere. Trying to solve this issue I wiped everything with recovery and flashed this: GizRoot_v_2 (1) which I found on this forum as a rom made similar to the stock rom. this worked and now phone was good but the guide did say to change the radio.
I tried to update my radio via hboot with sd card, but it always got stuck on the installing part and never finished. After researching it the problem was that I am still S-ON and you cant change radios while S-on?
I have spent 4+ hours googling and researching I have about 12 tabs open with different guides. I am very frustrated at this point
I Have a inspire 4g phone that works but the radio doesn't work. 1st it would connect to the movil network of the carrier but the wifi did work. I changed the simcard to another provider and it did work calls were made and internet data worked. but now wifi doesn't work!
I would like to have the phone back to factory setting and stock att rom. how can I do this, I used a RUU exe, but it always said error connecting to the phone. the RUU is RUU_Ace_Cingular_US_1.80.502.3_Radio_12.39.60.19_26.06.04.06_M_release_166557_signed
or maybe I am doing it wrong?
help please
edit: I booted phone to fastrecovery usb and ran the RUU.exe again, this time it went all the way to wiping and sending then it said an unknown error occurred right after updating signature and sent me to error recovery step 0, followed prompts but nothing worked
Flash boot.img from fastboot. Read the Ace Think Tank in Desire HD General for details.
steps
Ok
So.
I booted into recovery, wiped data and factory reset, wiped cache partition, wiped dalvik cache
installed from sd card update-aospX-1.0.0-AR30-DesireHD-signed. rebooted device into fastboot, connected usb cable.
downloaded android-win-tools and extracted into one folder. I also extracted the boot.img from update-aospX-1.0.0-AR30-DesireHD-signed into the same folder.
I opened a cmd window, went to said directory. typed fastboot.exe then fastboot devices. my device is there, then I did fastboot flash boot boot.img sending boot, writing boot ok.. did fastboot reboot...
and HOLY **** IT WORKS...
I still have to test wifi gps calls etc
EDIT: WIFI WORKS, GPS WORKS BLUETOOTH TOOK A WHILE TO TURN ON BUT WORKS, and calls work! camera works yey!
MIUI on Inspire 4G
Hi,
I need something like that too.
I bought my phone from USA in 2011, Android 2,2, i think, and with MIUI on it, locked on AT&T and I use it in Europe.
I unlocked it here in Europe and everything was fine.
So, the phone started work slow and after 2 years of use it I didn't receive any system update. My husband bought one same model, no MIUI on it, but HTC Sense I think, AT&T locked, unlocked here, but he received the system update and worked fine.
Now, in my silly thinking, I started to look for update on Internet and I saw that the Android is already 4.2. and I have 2.2. And I said,man, that's why is not working so well.
So, I upgraded my phone to Android 4.2.2 JDQ39E - the most stupid thing I could do. Starting that day, my phone is freezing non-stop, it restarted itself while I am talking on the phone. The apps are not working well, are freezing often. I read on AT&T website that for my model, the last Android is not 4.2.2 at all, but it was too late.
I found out how to upgrade the MIUI and I did it. This is ok, but this MIUI it makes me cray. I don't like it at all.
I WANT TO GET RID OF MIUI AND PUT SOMETHING ELSE INSTEAD OF IT. And put the normal Android system that my phone support it well.
HOW I CAN DO THAT?
Please help me with some advices before I will creat a new model: HTC Inspire 4G smashed.
Thank you so much.

Uh mate, It's best to go back to Stock Roms for that. And Everytime you guys go upgrading and degrading Roms, It's best to make a backup image with Nandroid.
Easiest way to go back to stock is find the proper RUU's for your phone.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1385016
Pick one of these, Download the RUU, Plug in your phone and Let the App do it's magic.
And take note, It's going back to the STOCK.
After that, Use the AAHK tool or search around the forums to unlock and S-Off.
Good luck.
