Different phone, and same issue. Before doing anything, but can you tell us if you are S-ON or S-OFF?

Have you installed any custom roms on your phone? Is it as you got from the shop?
I rooted it a few weeks ago, but i resetted it last week completely to go the update work... But i have still the Same issue... So its nearly like you get it in a Shop.

Does nobody have a solution ?

You will have to install an original HTC RUU before getting the official update. Otherwise you can use any custom ROM instead.
Yeah, just try a custom like ARHD. I think it run smoother, perhaps ur problems dissapear.
Get an original recovery first !!!
You should get an original recovery "Stock Recovery" before you do that . . .
try to do that by installing the RUU rom for your phone and your carrier ok
So after installing a costum ROM it should work? Okay ill give it a shot and answer if it works or not. Thanks anyway for your help!

As the title says. I did a search & came across a Nexus S post that said: You can flash an OTA update but you will lose root.
Just wanted to know if this is true for the Sensation. Thanks in advance.

Because you need stock recovery to install OTA.

Because of the way stock recovery is setup, and the way HTC formats their update.zip files.

Oh so basically It's different from phone maker to phone maker. Thanks for ur replies!

Yes you can.
When downloading, select install later.
Some can then be installed simply by using CWM. E.g. the latest security update.
Others, you need to put the stock recovery on first. See here.
Install su-2.3.6.3-efgh-signed.zip in CWM again to get root back.
Hey all.
I rooted my sensation and installed a different Rom without back up lol stupid mistake. Now my gps isn't working at all iv tryed everything but no success.
So if there is any way to go back to original Rom radio and so on for UK o2 network and try gps then if it works I can work around it.

To go back to stock rom, you need a so called RUU file, which is an .exe file to be run from Windows with phone connected.

There are plenty of threads in the development section to help you with this.
When I rooted my phone i was also confused because my phone restarts like 10 times and i was so confused what to do so the only thing you can do is wait and if it doesn't solve your problem then try another usb port and if it doesn't work then you might have to try in another system or laptop

If you are rooted just flash an ICS rom, there are plenty out there for the Sensation. Most stable I've used is the Darkforest one, didn't require any fiddling, just flashed and worked without a problem. If you need to have your phone repaired then you can always return it back to it's original kernel/radio/rom, I remember seeing a thread on here somewhere for it.

You have 2 options:
1. Flash custom ics rom as per above suggestion. Read and use sticky thread in development forum.
2. Restore phone to official rom via RUU, then wait for the official ota update
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1074559
In my opinion 1 is the only sensible choice. More features, earlier releases, better support via xda and from specific forums.
Totally agree, custom roms add many more features and are updated every few weeks where needed. Can't say the same for HTC
R u mean that when I root my phone the offical ROM will be changed

No you can root and leave official rom unchanged.
All the custom roms are pre-rooted.

is your device rooted?

Yes it is,
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA
Exact same thing happens to me.
Is it the root that's causing it or is it the bootloader not being stock?
It was told a million times (if not a billion) not to update your rooted phone via OTA
However this issue can be resolved easily - search Developement forum stickies for solution.
