Firmware to 3.32.401.105
But always same at logo hang.
Pleas need urgent expert advice.
Thx.
It because you've tried to flash a GB RUU with ICS firmware.
You need to go find the 1.17 firmware package from Mikes thread, install that then run the older RUU. This will return you to stock and remove your root. S-OFF should remain untouched.

Same problem with me.
Can you please help me and guide me to the whole procedure of running older RUU?
I had this problem when flash OTA with custom recovery, install to htc recovery flash again. I used this guide to install the right recovery if you on custom this may help. [GUIDE] Get Stock Recovery/Install OTA Updates without losing data.

I was happy t see your post but unfortunatly i have xp pc and that solution works only on win 7.
Any other way ??
If you place the 1.17 firmware on to the root of your SD then boot into boot loader the update will start automatically, power off, remove the 1.17.zip from the sd, then flash any of the GB roms.
Once you have a booting rom again, just plug the phone in via USB and run the chosen RUU. The RUU will replace everything bar your s-off. It will install the stock recovery, radio, rom etc.
Make sure you have all the correct drivers installed, if your unsure still there are numerous guides in the dev forum.

After succesfull update with 1.17 firmware and flash with old ruu this one.

But still stuck with htc logo.Got this rom from mediafire coz all links are dead megaupload.
I am noob.
try flashing any of the custom GB roms first (android revolution for example) before you run the RUU.
You need a booting rom before you flash the RUU. Remember to flash the superwipe.zip before flashing android revolution.
Hope you get some joy.

Hi.
I bought my Sensation few days ago. Updated it to 1.45.401.2, got bored with stock Rom. So I decided to unlock bootloader to use CustomeRoms
I removed SIMCard from Sensation (I needed it in my old phone) and used official bootloader unlocker tool from this site http://www.htcdev.com/bootloader and everything went ok. After unlocking I rebooted my phone to bootloader and saw this:
*** UNLOCKED ***

Good so far.
Installed Recovery 5.0.2.0 (official tool doesn't include this) - no problem.
Downloaded ROM SlimSense, made full wipe (cache, data system, dalvik etc) installed it per Recovery (succesfully), rebooted and.... the problems started.
After rebooting bootloop started. Full wipe, reinstalation (succesful again), reboot and the same - bootloop.I thought that instalation .zip file maybe was broken - let's try different. Downloaded virtuous_sensation-s-pyramid-v3.0.0-beta ROM, full wiped, installed (succesfully), reboot and... the same - bootloop.
I started suspecting something is wrong so decided to cure my phone by flashing stockROM. Downloaded RUU_Pyramid_HTC_Europe_1.45.401.2_Radio_10.56.9035 .00U_10.14.9035.01_M_release_208857_signed from XDA, full wiped with recovery, and tried to flash it -RUU founds my phone, reboot it to start instalation (black screen with white htc- missing percentage info) and try to send files to phone for 15-20 sec - then RUU show message that it cannot update my phone. When I unplug phone from usb, phone goes back to bootloader and show:

RUU
Security fail!
Update fail!
After this "try" i still have fully working Recovery. I tried also 1.35 and 1.73 stock ROMs - the same fail
I tried to unlock super cid 11111111 but it didn'twork - some SMART_IO.CRD file is missing.
Then i tried to use revolutionary way of unlocking, but without system on the phone it doesn't recognize it. And i can't have system cause RUU doesn't work.
Then I remembered that my SIM card is out of phone.
So I put it back but it didn't change anything: full wipe, instalation of SlimSense, reboot and... bootloop again, the same with virtuos.
The same fail with RUU! , the same supercid and revolutionary failure.
So here comes my question:
Is there any other posibility to flash stock ROM? PG58img somehow?
Pls - DON'T TELL me that i should use revolutionary first - i know it now.
Tell me how to solve this problem.

PG58img ??? yes, you can try this : http://goo-inside.me/ruu/pyramid/fu...00U_10.14.9035.01_M_release_208857_signed.zip
after download, rename to PG58IMG.zip and move to root of your sd-card, enter to bootloader -> flash this...
i could be wrong (not an expert) but maybe its failing because your phone still says its S-ON

As far as I know Official bootloader unlocker gives only "UNLOCKED" and it's enough to flash custom ROMs.
@ ranggazay
I extracted rom.zip from StockROM 1.45 renamed it to PG58IMG.zip and tried to flash but still nothing. Also tried the same earliers StockRoms (1.35, 1.27 etc).
Unfortunately I can't use your file cause i gave my phone to service.
Any solution?
Hello,
did you find a solution to the problem? I experienced this today and thinking about a repair unless I find something here. Did you get any solution? Thank you.
Try flashing the RUU again whist the phone is on FASTBOOT-USB
Same problem here - I'm interested in any solution

S on will not allow you to flash radios. Unlocked bootloader through HTC does not give you s off which is a requirement to flash custom ROMS.
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G XE with Beats Audio using xda premium
Htc dev method unlock only few parts of the bootloader.
It doesn't unlock the radio area, it doesn't give you advanced fastboot write command access (that's why you can't change your cid) and I think that the boot.img partition (where there is the kernel) is not flashable from recovery.
You unlocked your bootloader on a 2.3.4 rom (with a 2.3.4 kernel, sense 3.0) and you tried to flash two 2.3.5 roms.
Without the possibility to flash a new kernel your phone was trying to boot with a 2.3.4 stock kernel + a rom that was meant for 2.3.5. This could be the cause of your bootloops.
I would try to install a 2.3.4 rom, like android revolution HD 3.x.x, you could have problems with wifi but it should boot at least.
First of all get S-off then supercid ur phone. You need to have s off to install any custom Rom properly. Ones you do that hopefully solve problem. Try not to messing around u might brick ur phone. You already void ur warranty by unlocking bootloader.

Same problem but with different unit--- I have a HTC ChaCha.
Any solutions please? I would love to get S-OFF on my ChaCha but I know that is only possible via an XTC Clip.
Why would he have problems with WiFi? I think my stock ROM got broken or one of the stock ROM's kernels got messed up when I installed BusyBox because for some odd reason when I restored to factory settings with stock ROM the WiFi had problems connecting. It couldn't connect to anything at all.
I had same problem and this is how I solved it
Ok here is answer to solve you
Flash any 2.3.5 Rom and open that zip in computer and extract the boot.IMF file and place it to the web folder in c drive and and flash it immediately after installing Rom
Go to bootloader and make sure fastboot USB connected and then flash the boot.IMG file from cmd prompt
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using XDA
With s-on and **unlocked** via htc.dev, you can't flash radio.img or boot.img, nor can you write using fastboot (eg. superCID). RUU will not run with s-on.
You will need to revert and downgrade via this guide, you can then either continue with custom flashing or run the ruu correct for your original software/baseband/carrier/location.

Flashing a custom ROM does not give you s off. Which part of you can't flash radios and kernels with s on do you not get?. You cannot flash Android Revolution ROM with s on. Read the OP of the thread, requires s off.

You're wrong. You can flash ARHD with s-on. The only requisite is to flash the kernel (boot.img) by "fastboot flash boot boot.img" and voila. You need to have the unlocked bootloader with htcdev too.
My Sensation came with HBOOT 1.21, so no revolutionary at all. I unlocked by htcdev, installed 4ext recovery and ARHD 4.1.3 this way.

i read that HBOOT 1.21 can be S-OFFed " reported done by a member " in [S-OFF] Juopunutbear S-OFF or [Finally Here!] HTC Unbricking Project threads , i don't remember if the device on GB or ICS
i think it is Juopunutbear S-OFF search inside it [S-OFF] Juopunutbear S-OFF , it is done using the wire trick , link http://unlimited.io/
the only comment i have , is to verify the S-OFF type , is it like hardware S-OFF " i.e can't be S-ON again for warranty reasons ? " or it Software S-OFF

Got it to work, needed the XE ruu, so i downloaded and ran "RUU_Pyramid_LE_HTC_Europe_1.72.401.1_Radio_10.58.9035.00U_10.15.9035.02_2_release_214840_signed.exe",
Everything worked fine, was back on GB and S-ON. Then I updated the OTA update to ICS, and installed it. Now it won't boot. Just the HTC splash screen, then rebooting again. Can't see the boot animation, just the white screen with green "hTC".
I have booted into bootloader and fastboot, tried boot into recovery, but that didn't work it just rebooted again (and I don't have a recovery installed). I tried "Factory reset" but it just rebooted again. It does not get passed the splash screen. Any help?

This is what it says in the HBOOT and FASTBOOT.
Any tips on what to do? It will be greatly appreciated.
Edit: saw another thread, maybe the firmware is too old? I thought it got updated with the RUU, but maybe it doesnt? To install a new firmware do i just adb push it to the sd card? As mentioned above I can't get into recovery and mount sd-card.
Ok, whats your CID?
The base rom you needed to install for OTA update was 1.73.401.4 not 1.73.401.1
Did you have s-off??
It's not the FW as it's updated in the OTA - do a factory reset and you should be fine (although you'll lose your data)
@SquithyX: My CID is 11111111, unless it got reset after running the ruu
I had S-OFF but set it to ON, needed to send it in for rep.
@EddyOS: I can't factory reset, when I press it in BOOTLOADER it just get stuck in a boot loop again. I don't have a custom recovery installed due to me beeing S-ON
Also, thanks for help
Are you sure you flashed 1.73.401.1 rom???
Your CID should be the same
If you did, it looks like you need to s-off (not easy now but can be done)
Install 1.73.401.4 GB ROM
Then apply OTA ICS update
thanks, will try to get s-off again? Do you have a guide to get s-off from bootloader/fastboot? I searched around for it but did not get any results
Its not very nice as it uses the HTCDev system by here you go:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=21922297#post21922297
You need to downgrade your firmware and install the 1.73.401.4 ROM, from there you will have a smooth upgrade to ICS.
Thanks very much, will give it a go in the morning.
Hello,
I am having some trouble with my T-mobile Sensation 4G. I was trying to install a Rom and seemed to have failed. At this point it will not boot past the first white screen with the green HTC logo.

Most likely the rom will not boot on your current firmware. What rom is installed?
Option 1 is to restore a backup since you can access recovery.
Option 2 is to put the correct firmware on your SD using a PC, reinsert and let your phone update.

I don't think any rom is installed. It never got that far.
I first tried to update using this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1542192
However the update failed. After that the phone was just going into a reboot loop when I tried to start it up. I then tried to flash a new rom in the hopes it would fix whatever problem the first failure caused. I was following this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1098849
I was able to update the firmware from the linked page on that guide:
Firmware from 3.32.401.x & 3.32.401.10x RUU
I then tried to flash the Android Revolution HD 6.5.2 rom. It failed and when i tried to reboot it just hangs as described above. I tried to use superwipe and it also fails. I am sure at this point it is obvious I am lost.
Option 1 is not an option as I don't have a backup.
Option 2 may be an option, but I apparently don't know what the correct firmware is.....
Thanks again for the help.
I went back into fastboot and then recovery and tried to use superwipe, but that failed.
Option 1 is a no go because I do not have a backup.
Use this firmware instead.. it's worked well for me no matter which ICS rom I've installed..
Firmware from 3.24.401.1 & 3.25.401.101 RUU from http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1412618
Don't get it confused with the one you've already tried. Then after you flash that version of the firmware, remove it from sdcard and flash a rom. It's worked for me as it should for you as well.. Hope this helped.. I'm also assuming that you've Super CID your device....
if this helped, slap the thanks button... thanks

Can you help me ?
Many thanks in advance
What I want
I want to upgrade using the OTA ICS upgrade I just received on my phone.
But, it does not work. Starting the installation, the phone reboot then stay stuck on a picture with warning sign !
I want to upgrade from the OTA file as I don't want to re-install and configure all the phone again !
How-to ??
Shall I try to un-root and uninstall CWM ? How?
Or, simply install the received OTA upgrade file from CWM option update from SD file ?
Or, something different ? Which steps to follow
Or, the only solution is to reinstall full stock rom ?? worst case !
Situation:
unbranded Sensation XE
stock rom 2.3.4, Sense 3.0. Software version 1.73.401.4
Revolutionary S-Off, Root and CWM using XDA tutorial http://cleanimport.xda/index.php?threads/1192300/
Accessing the boot (Switch On button + volume down), this brings the following:
-Revolutionary
Pyramid PVT SHIP S-OFF RL
HBOOT-1.17.1111
Radio-10.14.9035.02-2
eMM-boot
The phone has been rooted and I installed ClockWorkMod CWM 5.0.0.8
The OTA file I received is OTA_PYRAMID_LE_ICS_35_S_HTC_Europe_3.32.401.105_R-1.73.401.4_release251962...zip
Unroot using the Gingerbread RUU. Then flash the original HBOOT through ADB. At this point, on your phone, check for updates or install the ICS RUU. If that doesn't work , extract the ROM.zip from the RUU.

Hi usaff22,
thanks for the fast and straight answer...
Correct my if I'm wrong, but applying the Gingerbread RUU will reinstall the complete ROM.
Doing this, the telephone will be completely refreshed. All config/apps/data will be gone isn't it ?
This was precisely what I was trying to avoid.
If there is no other solution, then that's life. Cryinggggg....

Flashing the correct firmware is not a big deal. Just download the correct file (you can find the version number somewhere in the thread of the rom) and flash it via 4ext recovery.

Flashing the firmware is REQUIRED.. How is it not a big deal?
If he updated to ICS then unlocked wouldn't the firmware already be the 4.32? If not, then do that.
Did you use super wipe before installing? Correct me if I'm wrong but aokp and cm is not compatible with super wipe but needs to use recovery's wipe all data option before install?
This should work perfectly fine on any ver. of ICS.
Make sure to wipe cache and super wipe / factory reset after installing Cyanogen.
You may get stuck on boot screen still.
Just power down into CWM and wipe cache and data again then reboot,
Works flawless for me on 4.03
Thanks please
