Folks, I have been through a million different forums and tried a million and a half things to get my phone to stop looping.
Here it is, (I should not have tried this due to my noob factor)
I have tried to install ICS insertcoin 5.1.7
I followed the guide to s-off - successful. Now it goes downhill and the details are foggy to say the least.
I am stuck with a bootloop and Model ID incorrect!
Here are the details:
Revolutionary
Pyramid PVS SHIP S-OFF RL
HBOOT 1.27.1100
RADIO-10.14.9035.01_M
eMMc-boot
Jan13 2012,17:33
So my question is, can someone please provide me with a walkthrough on how I can fix this. I know I'm not asking much can you please provide direct links for files I will need to download. I also want to try and avoid ADB as even looking at the forum about this frightens me.
Fingers crossed im not 100% bricked.
Cheers,
Andy
My Hboot is 1.27 too.
but it doesn't matter.
I suggest you try the ARHD6.5 rom ( don't try the newest two, just v6.5.3 is ok.) .
Were you on GB ROM when you tried to flash to ICS? Also, it looks like an incomplete firmware flash. Based on what it's reading in H Boot, you have a GB radio and that should not be. Did you make a backup before you started?

The backup failed... apparently.
So if it is an incomplete firmware flash, is it possible to just start the entire process again?
You can get the ice firmware from the thread linked in the first post in opensensation thread. Sorry I can't post links. Its the suggested firmware do. Flash that then wipe and install your rom. Ics will not boot on gb Firmware
You need to slowly step up to the ICS ROM, You can't flash from GB straight to ICS. Reflash firmware. Power off, remove battery put back in battery boot into fastboot, when it asks if you want to update choose yes, it will go through the update process, it wil flash off and back on, it's normal, it's still updating. When it's done it will say press power to reboot, do not reboot, scroll down to power off. Remove your battery and sd card and put your pc card in a reader on your pc. Delete PM58IMG zip from the card. Place the ICS ROM you want to flash onto sd card. Safely remove card from pc. Put sd card into phone, replace battery, boot into recovery and flash ROM.

Did you do supercid?
I forgot when I first rooted then when I flashed ics firmware I got a message like yours.
Follow the advice in my reply here ...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1571301
.... to make sure you have the correct fastboot drivers installed then follow the link in my reply to the rooting thread and follow step 4 (I think) with your phone in fastboot USB mode to get supercid.
You should then be able to flash gb or ics firmware followed by a gb or ics Rom
Good luck....
Hi,
try to reinstall the firmware from here. If your phone is broken, you will obviously need to put the stuff on the mem card manually.
If your phone is compatible that should work out of the box. If your CID is not on that list, you will need to follow their workaround and add it to the list in android-info.txt.

Hello,
I am a noob here. My question is regarding rooting the Sensation. I rooted mine successfully and installed ISC.
Now on my friends device, we followed the same steps. After using Revolution, i booted to boot mode. When we tried to install pg58img if said SID Incorrect, Install Failed.
I did delete the pg58img file after from the main directory of the SD card after.
It is now caught in a boot loop. I can't seem to get out of.
Any recommendations?
Currently has HSBOOT 1.27
I did search in the forums and could not find a solution
I think that you should have flashed 1.23 first, then flash the ROM and now after a reboot you should flash hboot 1.27.
I also got stuck in a bootloop and all I could do was to run my RUU file, get back to stock and start over.
Thanks for the response. But where do I restart from? I can't boot the phone, I can't access it from the PC. It just loops.
That's where I am stuck

You haven't installed one and no you don't want h boot 1.23 because you will be stuck with s on unable to flash boot.IMG or radios. 1.27 has an exploit so you're able to get back to 1.17 h boot.
Also Revolutionary doesn't support 1.27.
You're stuck in a bootloop because you have the wrong h boot version for running GB Rom.
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G with Beats Audio using xda premium
Hello thanks for the response. So whats my next step? Find 1.17, add it to the root directory and it should work?
Read this guide, it will explain the process and link you to the files you will need and explains how to flash boot.IMG

Attached is a photo of the boot screen. I tried looking the file with 1.17 failed to update. I tried one again with 1.27, it installed but still loops. And I cannot access recovery.
I know I may be doing the wrong thing, but I am lost at this point...
Okay do this, you need to find a recovery.IMG for the latest CWM or 4ext, I am not near my pc so I cannot upload one. Search the development forum, they do exist. You then turn off your phone and remove the battery and sd card, insert the sd into a reader on your pc. Copy the recovery.IMG to your sd card and change the name to PG58IMG.zip. Safely remove card from your pc, put it back in your phone, put battery back in. Boot into h boot and when it asks if you want to do update choose yes, it will update. Now you have custom recovery to flash custom ROM. You will still bootloop because you now have to flash an ICS ROM.
Do yourself a favor while you have the sd card in your pc and put a ICS ROM zip on it. Before you can flash your Rom you have to remove your sd card again same as before and delete the PG58IMG.zip from your sd card, safely remove it, put it back in phone boot into h boot scroll down to recovery, choose it by pushing power, now choose install zip option then choose zip from sd card, scroll down to the ROM zip you put there and install it.
You should be good now.

Your awesome!!!
YOUR AWESOME... Everything worked so far.
I was able to use CID to 11111111 and use your instructions. It did allow me to use a GB rom, but still not an ICS rom. I am assuming I will have to download another PG158IMG file ?
Atleast I am out of the loop for GB though!
If you want to run ICS you are on the right h boot 1.27. Which are you trying to flash? Check your mid. Use adb while in fastboot and type "fastboot getvar mid".
Glad to hear it's working now.

Okay, i wanted to download the ELEGANCIA ICS ROM but before i could i had to download a FIRMWARE PACKAGE(or just firmware). So i downloaded the Firmware from 3.32 RUU which is for the ELEGANCIA ROM...By the way, I DID THIS BEFORE I INSTALLED the ELEGANCIA ROM(i hadn't downloaded it yet..elegancia rom) I followed the instructions how to flash it. It said it would tell you what to do next..so i did it. Went into Recovery and flashed through sd and installed the ZIP file and when it asked if i wanted to udate it i pressed Yes...and then this is what HAPPENs NEXT.
It ask if i want to update and I do and then it says:
Parsing...[ SD ZIP]
[1] BOOTLOADER - Ok
Update Complete...
Press POWER to reboot.
So i press power and all it does is: BOOTS up and then TURNS OFF
It continues to do that...I believe it's called BOOT LOOPING.?
I pull out the battery and press VOL. Down plus POWER at the same tiime and it takes me back to the WHITE SCREEN and I see FASTBOOT, RECOVERY, FACTORY RESET, SIMLOCK and IMAGE CRC but does NOT let me choose. It automatically goes to HBOOT.
I have to pull battery or it will continue to BOOT itself on and off again. Even with the phone off, I connect it to my usb connection on my laptop and my device does not show on my laptop. Both the usb connection and usb cord are working properly.
That is my BIG PAIN in MY ASS right now!!
Can someone please help me.?
You will have to make your phone Super-CID or download the correct firmware package that fit your CID.
Super-CID makes you able to flash any firmware package etc.

You stated that your ROM was GB and that's not supported on the 3.32 F/W.
Download your ICS ROM and mike's SuperWipe script from the ARHD thread.
Copy them to the SDcard via the PC and a USB <-> microSD adapter.
Delete the PG58IMG.zip file on the SDcard.
Boot the phone into Bootloader, get into Recovery, SuperWipe and flash the ROM.
You also have a locked version (1.27.0000) of the HBOOT, I suggest at some stage installing an unlocked version (1.27.1100) from: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1459767

Don't bother restoring to stock, waste of effort.
Read my previous post.
1. Anyway, did the ICS F/W update work ?
2. Is the PG58IMG.zip file still on the SDcard ? If so rename /delete it.
3. Get your chosen ICS ROM and mike's SuperWipe script onto the SDcard.
4. Go into recovery and run the Superwipe script then flash the ROM.
Steps 2 & 3 you'll need to use a PC to do these with a USB <-> microSD adapter.
I am assuming that there wasn't a typo in your original post in that you actually have HBOOT 1.27.0000, this is ICS ONLY firmware and GB won't work on it.
BTW what recovery have you got ? CWM or 4EXT ?

I just tried it and the phone is ON NOW BUT it is just on the White screen with the Green HTC letters. It has been on for 15 minutes already...By the way, I DO NOT have a microSD adapter. I did it by getting into CWM and going to Recovery and going into mounts and then i mounted it and was able to install it like that. Is that the reason why it is still on the White HTC screen? Do I pull the Battery?
Another thing I still haven't flashed my ICS Rom because when i DID Mike's SuperWipe it did it's thing and just automattically went to the White HTC screen.
No, there is NO TYPO, that is exactly what it says. I believe i still have CWM and I remember tthat I had 4ext to.

So precisely what have you got on the SDcard at the moment ?
PG58IMG.zip ?
SuperWipe.zip (or what ever the name is) ?
ICS ROM "zip" file ?
Edit: If you used the superwipe script you have no OS on the phone and will NEED to flash an ICS ROM through recovery. It shouldn't have gone to the white HTC screen just returned to CWM. If you don't have an ICS ROM on the phone's SDcard you can try adb pushing it or possibly use another device that has microUSB capability.

What I have now is Superwipe.zip and ICS ROM.zip. I deleted the PG58IMG that I had on the SD Card before I did the SUPERWIPE.
I pulled out the battery and got into recovery and installed from sdcard and I went to install ICS ROM and it started but then it said ABORTED. Tried again and said the same thing.
Should I try another ICS ROM?
What about not having the PG58IMG?

Ever heard of a Micro-SD to SD card adapter?? Handy to have in situations like this...
You can get into Recovery by...
1. Turn the phone off (properly off)
2. Remove the SD card
3. Turn it on holding the volume down button to get into HBOOT
4. Once it's in HBOOT, insert the SD card
5. Select recovery from the menu
You will now be in recovery and, if it's still CWM, you can flash a different ROM

Hello I am a noob and I need help please.
On Tuesday I rooted my HTC XE Sensation after finding a way to root and unlock it. Well after I did all of that I went to add the custom CoinDroid rom onto my phone and now my phone will not do anything. I removed the file from my sd card and re-added everything I did to root & unlock the phone and now it just stays at the HTC logo white screen.
I am able to get on the bootloader and I have used recovery on my phone every time with CWM. And nothing happens. Is my phone bricked? If not is there a way to get my phone to work?
On the bootload screen it reads:

Well you won't be able to use 4ext until you can download it off the market.
Find a nice Gingerbread ROM off development, or you can try ARHD sense 3.5 ROM. Don't try to usr 3.6 because you probably don't have proper firmware. Download the 3.5 ROM, put it on the root of your SD card. Boot into recovery, superwipe everything and then flash the ARHD ROM. Make sure you check md5 sum.

I just saw that you have S-On. I think another problem is that you have S-on. There are a couple guides in development that guide you through the process. Obtain S-off, super CID, then try to flash again. You can do all that through ADB. Imma head to sleep now, will help you tomorrow if you still need help.

Alright so here we go:
Step 1: Go to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1192300. This is the thread for S-Off. Do that first. This might solve your problem. After you have S-Off do the next step.
Step 2: Go to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1460801 and download the ROM. You don't have to stick with this ROM. It's just to check if it works. Make sure you put the downloaded ROM into the ROOT of your SD card. Don't put it in any folder.
Step 3: Put your SD card back into your phone and reboot to recovery(CWM). Wipe Data, Cache, Dalvik-Chache.) Once you've done that, flash the ROM. After flashing, reboot your phone and it should reboot. First boot takes a while. If it seems to bootloop, try to flash one more time. If it still bootloops, All I can tell you to do is either try and unroot it and set it like factory or try to upgrade your Frimware.
(If your phone did boot up correctly)
Step 4: Go to the market and download 4EXT. Follow the directions to have your recovery changed.
Step 5: I am assuimging you have changed your CID to 11111111. If not, go to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1192300 and follow the directions on how to change your CID.
Step 6: Most ROMS now adays will require the new firmware. To do that, go here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1412618. Follow the directions on how to change your firmware. Read the directions are fully, doing this wrong could make your phone useless. After your firmware is changed, go on development and download a ROM you might like. Read through and make sure the firmware that ROM requires is the firmware that you have.
That Should worlk. Good luck.
please help me I have HTC Sensation Z710e
I used to have the 3.33 version software and Hboot 1.27.1111, so I used the Juopnetbear method for S-OFF
Here's a link to it:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1614617
I did the htcdev method to unlock the bootloader and it worked flawlessly(the device had no errors after reboot)
But when I flashed 3.32 stock ROM(which is required for the control bear method to work), there was a Wifi error . I thought this was a temporary glitch and it will go away after I install another ROM..
So I proceeded to S-OFF using the wire trick
Now when I installed a custom ROM it read Wifi error...
I looked into many posts and tried different methods but nothing worked..
PLEASE SAVE ME!!!
CUSTOM ROM is Ordroid V9.0.0

maybe in your case is unecessary but it worths the try
flash the boot.img of the rom manually
see here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1631861 (only extra 1 step) or
do a full wipe and reflash the rom
Reflashing is maybe the only thing you could do
Or try flashing the radio
I did that and it didn't work however I flashed a different ROM (HyperNonSense) and now it's working

How exactly do I flash the radio?sorry for all the questions..I did find a ROM that solved the problem and I noticed that it had a stock kernel..does that mean that I can never flash a ROM with a custom kernel? WTF to that:banghead:

You can flash a matching kernel if your So Off. And you can flash a radio if your S off. Here is how. This is how I flash my radio. The radio file is a pg58img file. It must continue to be named pg58img, nothing added to the name. Place the pg58img file at root of SD card. Do this by coping the file from your computer to your device. Then once file is placed on root of SD card pull battery, put battery back in, press volume down and power, the device will recognise the file and ask to update, power for yes. Once the update is finished you MUST remove the pg58img file from root of SD card or when in bootloader the device will continue to try to update over and over and over. So make sure to delete the pg58img file when finished. That's it. That's how you update the radio. I suggest you read on the radio site how to update because if your unsure of any steps you can brick your device. So I'm going to attach a link for updating radio. There are a couple ways to do it. I think this way is easiest. But do read the directions so everything is clearly understood. Hope this helps you. Here is the radio link with instructions http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1202867
