[Q] Looking for RUU - HTC Sensation

Folks,
I'm looking for the stock RUU for my Sensation. The current software version is 1.45.707.2.
The phone is rooted and S-off. I want to reinstall the stock recovery so that I can apply updates from HTC. Also, I want to be able to install the stock ICS update when it is released.
My phone is off-network. The CID from the "getprop ro.cid" command is HTC__044, whereas if I use "fastboot getvar all" I find my cidnumb is 11111111. It also lists my modelnumb as PG5813000.
Anyway, I'd be grateful if someone could suggest the most appropriate RUU to use with the Android Recovery Manager.

Bump please!

Can only find this one:

Which one is for xe?
Sent from my HTC Sensation XE with Beats Audio

Neither as you didn't ask for the XE one, those links are 2 places for the same 1.35.707.1 RUU

May i have the link for the xe one? And the firmware to flash and radio?

RUUs include FW and radio so you don't need them.
Which RUU version are you looking for? There aren't many XE RUUs about

The GB version 1.73 asia wwe i think i just want to go back to my stock rom. But before i could flash that i need to lower myhboot back to 1.17

What HBOOT are you on at the moment? If you're S-OFF and Super CID you don't need to go back
Might be worth starting your other thread as well as opposed to hijacking this one

If you're S-ON then you're screwed anyway as you can't S-OFF the 1.27 HBOOT

Thanks EddyOS for your help. Is it OK to use this as my stock ROM to get the recovery? I do want to reflach CWM once the update is installed.

Flash the RUU and you're back to 100% stock (but with S-OFF). Once you've eventually gone through the various OTA updates you'll need to flash before ICS, and the ICS OTA itself, you'll still S-OFF so you can flash CWM by using a PG58IMG.zip as you won't have a fully unlocked bootloader so fastboot commands won't work

Im S-off too.

So just use any RUU to get back to stock - if you didn't make a note of your original FW before you flashed a new ROM then that's your fault

You probably want this one:

http://www.filefactory.com/file/cd1d...857_signed.exe
You will need a goldcard to run the RUU. Even with a goldcard, you may get a 'Model ID error" since you are trying to run this on a stock, s-on device. This ROM is for the Z710E and you have a Z710A, thus the reason "Model ID error" may get thrown.
Thanks, then where can i download one ROM from my HTC Sensation Z710a?

Gold card won't work, you need S-OFF and Super CID to flash a different ROM

If you S-OFF then you can take the 2.3.4 Z710e ROM.zip and edit the android-info.txt file to add the Z710a model id. With S-OFF you will then be able to flash this modified, unsigned ROM and get the stock 2.3.4 that you want.

any help for roms?

Hello, due to a loooong story, I have hboot 1.23 and well as some of you may know its terrible, I now cannot flash any files at all via hboot and my firmware is 3.12 but the problem is I love ics and so, can anybody please find me any roms that have ics and run on firmware 3.12 not 3.24 or anything else. It will probably be android version 4.01 or could be 4.03 but it would have stated firmware 3.2. I don't mind even if the roms are outdated versions of the newest version of roms, such as arhd 6.0.0 instead of what is being used now.
Thanks.
Do you have s off? If you do just flash the firmware that has the 1.27 unlocked h boot 1.27 and flash the ICS Rom you want.
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G with Beats Audio using xda premium
no i dont have s-off.I tried to get to stock and wrote s-on incorrectly (apparently).
Now i can't really do anything until revolutionary updates, i have to stay with the ooooold roms.
COREDROID 4.0 works on 1.23, the problem is you can't flash radios which isn't in this ICS ROM. So you're s on. I am assuming you used HTC unlock. I assume you have root and custom recovery. What did you do exactly.
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G with Beats Audio using xda premium
I used to run Virtuous Inquisition on HBOOT 1.23, in fact I've only recently changed to 1.27.
How did you change to 1.27? I thought hboot 1.23 did not have firmware flashing or any advanced fastboot commands...

Well yes. I had to use HTCdev because I wrote s on wrong and my bootloafer was locked so I ran htcdev, flashed recovery and now I'm s-on without being able to change ny hboot or anything at all now.

If you have s off you can flash any firmware with 1.23. Why do you refuse to understand that 1.23 s on is your problem, yes you are in fact stuck there. No matter how many threads you ask the same thing in, sorry but it's the truth.

Do I need to revert to old firmware to S-on and go back to stock Rom?
FFS people, doesn't anyone actually make sure they know what to do BEFORE rooting in the first place??
1. Flash old 1.17 FW (unless you're Super CID, in which case you may not need to)
2. Flash the RUU of your choice (normally the one your phone came with, if available)
3. Reset Super CID to one of your choice (again, usually the one your phone came with)
4. S-ON using the fastboot command in the guide in the Dev forum
^^^^
i will take some info from someone..how i can see CID without root ??

Update 6.6.7 to --- ARHD 6.7.2 | ICS

At the risk of sounding like a noob, sorry in advance! I've been trawling through these posts but have been unable to find a straight answer so here goes.
I'm using a rooted HTC Sensation with ARHD 6.6.7 XE w Beats Audio, Firmware 3.32.401, HTC sense 3.6. Everything works perfectly!!!!!!!
I just want to update to latest ARHD 6.7.2 ,XE w BA.
Can I just flash the ROM update and be done?
Or
Do I need to - superwipe, update firmware to 3.33.401 and then flash ROM?
Very much appreciated. H

From the ARHD thread
No need to Super Wipe if you have 6.7.x already!
- 3.33.401.x firmware is required!

Click to collapse
Yes you need to super wipe before you flash 6.7.2
Just backup your apps with Titanium backup and messages with SMS Backup and Restore.
EDIT
Stay on 3.32 Firmware because it has an unlocked boot loader. It will still work.
Thank you very much!!

Hi,
Going from 6.6.x to 6.7.x ,you are changing bases.
You need to wipe in recovery...
Format all partitions (except sd card)
Then install new ROM.
It will work with the 3.32. firmware,but you get the new radio with 3.33 firmware.
You can get 3.33 universal firmware HERE

Could you left an information if you still believe to old firmware, because I have the same question and would like to reseive experiences.
In some cases is it better to go to next firmware, new radio better corresponding to new rom. So I am not sure to let old firmware worlk with the new rom.
Other question:
Is in the new firmware the bootloader locked ??? I hope not. So why do not upgrade to new firm ?
I found the firmware here
Many thanks for reply.

3.33 has a locked bootloader, so no do not update from 3.32.
Yes superwipe between 6.2.7 XE and 6.6.7 XE
All ARHD ROMs are stable, smooth and good with battery life (in my experience anyway)

Firmwares that I have posted:
3.33 Universal is the latest/stable release ICS 4.0.3 FW for Sensation (sense 3.6 Version and works for Sense 4 also)
3.32 Universal is ICS 4.0.3 FW for Sensation (sense 3.6 Version) that has the Unlocked bootloader (posted by Mike1986)
3.30 Universal is ICS 4.0.3 FW for Sensation (sense 3.6 Version) that has the Unlocked bootloader (posted by Mike1986)
3.24 Universal is ICS 4.0.3 FW for Sensation (sense 3.6 Version) that has the Unlocked bootloader (posted by Mike1986)
3.12 Universal is ICS 4.0.3 FW before that (Sense 3.5 Version)
1.17 Universal This is the original Revolutionary 1.17.1111 Firmware with a completed Gingerbread Firmware v 1.45 package (Radio 10.14.9035.01_M)
So what is universal about it?
I have added a method found by mf2112 that allows the android-info file to have a wildcard tag. So instead of having a T-Mobile file where the android-info file has every cidnum the identifier is one entry into the android-info file and it covers every possible CID that T-Mobile has.

Not sure about the other firmware but use the universal as suggested because it does NOT change the boot or lock anything, I've upgraded my self to the 3.33 universal the one that won't lock or change boot. I've had zero issues and it has been wonderful . Make sure to READ before you install to be sure your downloading the correct version. You place the file at root of sd card, boot to downloader by taking battery out put battery back in, then press volume down and power at the same time. It will recognise the pg58img file and ask to update, press power for yes. Once the update is completed and rebooted. REMOVE the pg58img file! If you don't it will want to continue to update over and over inside the downloader, so delete the file soon as your finished. Hope this helps. Best wishes.

Hi,
Yes, you can try to run 6.7.0 on 3.33 firmware.
Make a nandroid first.
The basic difference between 3.32 and 3.33 is only a newer radio.

Hi,
"To briefly explain with a somewhat-less-than-accurate analogy for the purist, the radio you can flash is like a firmware package in Windows terms, and the RIL is like a driver. It is important to match them for best results, or else poor or no reception is likely, as well as high battery drain." (Quote from HERE )
The radio controls mobile data,wifi,basically all radio signals in the phone.
A good radio/ril combination is required for good reception,and even good battery usage in the area in which you live .
Check the link above to see if you can get more information.
