I thought my phone was rooted so i tried flashing the bulletproof rom but nothing happened during the update, so i took the battery out and restarted the phone. And ever since then my phone would just go to the clockworkmod recov screen and do nothing else!! im using the bell sensation 4g unlocked version and i dont know know to do!! please help!
When you go into bootloader. Does it say you're s-off? Pull the battery out and put it back in. Push vol down+power button to get to bootloader.

Also is it wasy to revert back for warrenty purposes. Thanks in advance
Hi, I have the same and followed this guide to get s-off, once that's done you can do anything you want. It looks tricky but really isn't that bad

What wire did you use and after you have done S-Off using that guide what is the next step before flashing a custom rom? Thanks
I'm not sure about the wire as I had a different h boot but once your s off and. Have4ext recovery installed you download the Rom to the root of the sd card, then wipe cash, wipe dalvik, wipe data factory reset (do this through 4 ext recovery)stay in recovery after you do these things chose install zip from sd card , scroll down and find the Rom then press , it will install from there. Once installed go to reboot and your done. It can take some time for the first boot. Hope this helps you!

Any co-ax cable.. In fact any insulated wire which is a good conductor would do.. But insulation is important.. Except the edges..

I flashed clockwork mod recovery via fast boot (you need adb installed), then flashed the ROM below, but once s-off the choice is yours. There's tutorials and step by step guides for everything which is a great help. For the wire trick I used a wire from an Ethernet cable, someone recommended it in that previous thread and it worked fine, took a couple of attempts but was fine. If there is anything else just let me know.

As realsis says wipe dalvik and cache and etc, pretty much all the ROM posts in the development threads advise what to do, I used clockwork mod but recently changed to 4ext and can recommend it also as its easier to use.
If you're unsure of the wire trick, read through ganeshp's s-off thread, he's very helpful and knowledgeable.

i flashed VipersS and when i reboot it just does like...a boot loop on the bright HTC logo screen??? idk if thats boot looop or not...please someone help me, and im dieing to use VipersS Rom, btw, im on S-OFF
Do you have the correct firmware 3.32 or 3.33? Did you do a wipe before flashing? I'm s off and before I installed viper I wipe cash, wipe dalvik , wipe data factory reset (do this in 4ext recovery) stay in recovery choose zip from sd card , flash, reboot.
It should be fine if you follow those steps and Are using the correct firmware.hope this helps.

i am coming from the amazing Elegancia. and i originaly wanted VipersS Rom but never got it to work, so idk exsactly what version im coming from, all ik is im coming from the latest Elegancia. Ik all the wiping procedures. lol im not new to rooting, just new to HTC and the Sensation.
Try it as I told you and it should work, wiping is very important. You do have 4 ext recovery don't you? 4 ext makes things very easy, . Just remember to wipe before installation. Hope this helps and hope you enjoy your sensation!

so...how do i upgrade i guess to 3.33?
First download the universal 3.33 firmware then you install it from the bootloader.
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G with Beats Audio using xda app-developers app
To put the firmware on your device put the pg58img file on root of sd card then reboot into bootloader by removing battery put battery back in, press volume down and power your device will recognize the file and ask to upgrade volume up for yes. It will upgrade then remove the file off the sd card or it will continue to want to update. This is how you install firmware
It seems like a lot but once you do it you won't forget.

Yeah, i upgraded to 3.33...still does the htc logo reboot...wtf...
Don't know why it's still not booting? You followed all the directions and seemed to have done everything correctly that I know of. Hopefully someone else has more ideas. Try a fresh download see if that will help , if not I'm not sure what else to do.perhaps someone else has some ideas. I do wish you the best and I'm sorry it's not booting? Is it just viper not booting? Very strange. I do wish I could be of more help

Hi, I want to ask if any of you guys flashing custom rom into device that still s-on but rooted. I'm doing this to my device cause its very hard to me to get the s-off. We need to do short circuit thingy I guess (HTC Sensation XE). My concern here that I'm afraid flashing custom rom to s-on device can harm or brick my device as the developer said to do so. Pls give your opinion. Thx.

What do you mean by doing extra step 1#? Unlocking using HTCDev? Ive done before. But if you say to unlocking HTCDev every time I flashed new rom. Is such a pain. OR, Is that anyway it can be lock again? Coz before this wifi thingy happen ive flash many rom & kernel. I think this cause my wifi not functioning. Sorry Im totaly lost now. Sorry also coz being noob here. My bad.
Thanks in advance. Really need a guide for solving this. FYI I got 2 Sensation XE. The other is just fine with the custom rom. But this one is gave me so much trouble.

escpecially in S-ON devices after flashing a custom rom if the smartflash feature(4ext recovery) fails(you notice that when the device is trying to boot the rom and it is bootlooping)then the only option is to flash the boot.img of the rom manually
Not true!!!

I am still S-ON and I flash whatever roms I like. It is very difficult to hard brick your phone if you're S-ON. If however you're S-OFF, you can potentially screw up your phone. So no worries about bricking if you're S-ON (unless you do something really really naughty!!!).
Buttons do not work at ALL, only in bootloader porwer and volume and power on func.
In all other modes don't work, no response in ROM, no response in Recovery, only touch control!
Track pad lights red and proximity sensor too when phone ON, no illumination from buttons.
SORRY FOR MY POOR ENGLISH!!
If power button and volume rocker work fine in bootloader mode, but not in rom and recovery, its doubtfully a hardware issue. I would suggest flashing a new recovery first (through fastboot if you have s-off) then flash a new rom. Have you tried this? Are you s-on or off? When did this happen? What have you tried to fix?
