Hi guys,
im really desperate here, my sensation xe (hboot 1.23, s-off), won't let me boot any flashed rom.
My firmware is 3.32 and im using 4ext recovery 1.005 RC3.
Even my Nandroid backup of ARHD 6.6.3 won't boot, the phone gets stuck in a bootloop (it does't even show the boot animation, only the splashscreen for a few seconds, then reboots).
i bet someone on here can help me, because i don't know what to do.
thank you in advance
best regards

If your hboot is 1.23 then you DO NOT have 3.32 firmware. Re-flash the firmware and try to reboot...

i reflashed the firmware, formatted all partitions in recovery, and flashed ARHD, but no luck i'm still stuck in a splashscreen bootloop.
the recovery (after flashing arhd) prompted something like "boot update pending, will reboot after update is finished"
maybe there is a problem with the latest rc of the 4ext touch recovery?
thanks again for your help
Are you definitely s-off, or are you simply *unlocked*? Also, did you run the superwipe script?

i don't know
when i turn it off by pulling battery and then turn it on by pressing vol down and power (i think thats fastboot?) the second line from the top says S-Off RL
Ok, that's s-off.
Did you run superwipe?
Did you run an md5 checker on all of your files?
Is it still reading 1.23 on hboot? (should be 1.27.1100)

if by superwipe you mean flash a file that's named superwipe, no i didn't.
i chose format all (except sd) in the 4ext touch wipe menu.
i did run an md5 check on all files.
the hboot version number says 1.27.1100.
i just reflashed recovery from fastboot to see if it helps (altough i flashed the same recovery version, so maybe theres some kind of bug?) but it is still stuck on splashscreen.
aww man i'm really desperate right now, i kind of need this phone because i have no replacement
Go to ARHD thread, download the superwipe script, flash it from recovery, and then flash ARHD again...

did it, flashed arhd afterwards, didn't work.
still stuck on splashscreen.
thank you so much for your help! any other idea?
I'm going to lunch. I'll ponder on it...
okay i got it working and here is what i did:
it seems 4ext recovery was trying to flash a messed up boot image over and over again.
i pulled the boot.img from the arhd zip file and flashed it via fastboot. it now seems to boot (it has gone past the splashscreen and now shows the boot animation).
thanks again for your.
i can not recommend the latest recovery

Cool! Glad you got it sorted out. Which boot.img were you selecting in 4ext, and which one did you pull from the rom.zip? Also, please send a bug report to madmaxx82 so he can look into it...

both faux kernel boot.img, but somehow 4ext was stuck with an "old" boot.img from a previous aosp rom.
the feature "smartflash" was activated and somehow could not be deactivated. that way the recovery, everytime when it was done flashing the rom, flashed an aosp kernel afterwards.
at least that is my guess.
thanks again.

That's the culprit there.
It's not the problem of recovery
The smart flash option is for ppl with SON and unlocked bootloader.. And as you said it retains the previous boot.img
As you are soff you should not enable it
.To disable smartflash go to tools in recovery there you will find the smartflash option
Also the latest recovery is awesome..
You just need to know what should be enabled and what should be not before using it

yeah, i know that now. there is just one thing: the disabling in the recovery did not work for me.
also: when the recovery is upgradet it asked if i am soff. i misclicked once, but didn't think much of it since it CLEARLY says "if you are not sure, choose no (s-on)".
the thing is it automatically activates smartflash.
the main problem for me was that it could not be deactivated from the recovery. the recovery said "deactivating smartflash" and afterwards "smartflash deactivated" but it wasn't :/
thanks anyways (i know the recovery is the **** i love it, too)

HELP!!
I am new to rooting, and tried to root my phone using a guide on this forum. I got my head around bits of it but im confused now and seriously need help. I successfully unlocked the bootloader screen and when I hit recover I can access clockworkmod fine. But when I try to flash the firmware by placing the PG58img.zip on the SD card, it tries to run it but says "wrong image", "no image", then stays on parsing for a while. If I restart the device it just stays on the white HTC screen. What have I done.
I am unsure what version kernel I should be trying, (tried a few, they all stay on parsing), and I could use a good ROM too.
its a pyramid pvt ship s-on rl
hboot-1.27
I really need some help and Id much appreciate it

Thanks man, I shall follow it exactly and let you know how it goes. Lost without my phone.
problems
Ok so I have tried it to the letter, few issues though..
Since I have no working rom running, I cannot "enable usb debugging" in order to install the 4ext recovery. I got around this but doing this in the bootloader instead - is this ok ?
4ext seemed to work, and i have followed it to the letter, super wipe installed great, then I installed revolution rom which went well, choosing to install a stock kernal. However after reboot - still a white HTC screen
The only thing I can think of is that my firmware is wrong. Since I cannot get into settings (as i have no rom) and can only access bootloader and now 4ext, I cannot see its version - if there is a way can you help please
I need 3.32 but don't know if i have it or not as I have played around with it that much (my own fault i know )
Is there any way to see the version i have and install 3.32 firmware in 4ext or bootloader. Everytime I have tried in the past by copying it to the sd card, it gives me the parsing message and no image wrong image..grrr
Thanks greatly man

4EXT flashed fine ..thats no probs there ..and you did the right thing (adb reboot-bootloader is to get to fastboot ..which you can do it manually too)
did you enabled the smartflash ?? ---> THIS is the main step
did you check the md5 of the ROM ? (you can do it via 4EXT itself - its in install form sdcard-> check md5 i think) and verify it aganist the md5sum given in ARHD thread (in general just below the download link)
also flash the rom again ..no wipe this time ..just flash it
can you post the complete HBOOT details ? seeing that i can give you the proper suggestion (afaik if you are on ICS earlier ..you have correct firmware)
I have performed the md5 check and it was ok. Im thinking that after 4ext rebooted after the superwipe, I didn't re-enable smart flash (forgot it needs to be done again), so I just enabled it and am reinstalling the ROM with no superwipe this time..
My hboot is 1.27 so i must have 3.32..
I really do appreciate this, sorry im a n00b
Finished flashing rom, reboot and same again. White HTC screen. I really am lost now
This is what my screen says in bootloader

EDIT: you got correct firmware no need to flash it again
dude the smart flash is said temporary for a reason ..you need to enable it every time ..when ever you enter the recovery ..until you make the smartflash permanent by following step 5 (which can be done only when you have a bootlable, rooted rom )
Yea im guessing the firmware is ok, the 4ext is great, superwipe works fine, the rom installs complete. When reboot, it just stays ont he white screen
Really annoying now since i have no phone and cannot seem to find anything else on it.

I can really understand your annoyance I have experienced the exact same problem to the letter. After several attempts to reach out No One seemed to help or understand my problem. I then went back to my HD2 and now have the HOX as my main unit.
I get stuck on the white logo screen or beats screen everytime I flash a ROM. I tried everything at least I think so.

Yea, im well pissed off. I have done everything, yes I enabled smartflash and installed the rom again, done that a few times now. Ran superwipe a few times, nothing.....
going to re image the recovery and try it all again.
if that doesnt work, its in the bin..

you keep on doing superwipe ..it wipes everything
just do it once ..only once
then enable smartflash
then flash the rom
if it still stuck
then do the extar 1 step in the guide (you need to get the boot.img of the kernel you have chosen while installing the AHD rom earlier)
thats all follow that once and reply me back if it didnt worked
(no extra steps)
ok done it again, same thing happens.
Now.. you are referring to an extra step regarding the boot image. It isnt clear in the guide. Where do I get the boot image from, and how and when do I apply it.

Usually the fitting boot.img can be found inside the .zip of your desired Rom.
Finding your "boot.img"
Open your rom's zip file
Open the "kernels" folder
Open the folder of the kernel you chose during install of your rom (if there are any choices)
Extract the "boot.img" to C:\Android (or wherever your adb and fastboot are located)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
he does say how to find it right?
the zip in your case is ARHD 6.6.7 rom zip file
and you are asking again for how and when ..when he clearly explained the steps on how to do it
and i already told you when to apply it
ohh btw skip the adb steps ..you can go to bootloader manually and do the fastboot commands
ok, so i got somewhere
I found a boot.img in the rom/kernals
then i used fastboot flash boot boot.img
this flashed the img
now when i reboot i get off the htc screen and im stuck on the beats audio screen -- oo while I been typing its come off the beast screen and booted into android yey.. Thank you every so much man. I kinda understand this a little more too thanks to you and the guide.
I shall post when I have problems with this rom (notice i said when)

Hey I tried to do everything my guy here did and still no luck.
the last thing I tried was flashing latest firmware package without the HBOOT, then flashed the newest recovery, then performed a superwipe because latest rom differed from ARHD, then flashed the ROM and then the Boot.img just to be sure (even though this should not be necessary according to the firmware)
How can I figure out whats wrong?
Hi all,
I hope one of you masterminds is able to help me out.
I tried to root my sensation without s-off with hecdev.com (using One_X_All-In-One_Kit_v1.0) and then tried to install cm9 from one the links here via revcovery with CWM 5.8.0.9.
But then I was stuck with the loading animation...
I cannot run Android now, so I cannot flash a stock RUU.
I can enter bootloader, which seems to be unlocked, here's the info:
"Unlocked"
PYRAMID PVT SHIP S-ON RL

Jan 13 2012,17:33:34
I was on the latest official ROM (ICS, via OTA) before trying that.
I have not succeeded in flashing a ROM anymore.
Do I need to get S-Off first?
Or is HBOOT to new? Do I have to revert? How?
I tried older HBOOT, but it wouldn'T do anything after PArsing
Please help, any hint is appreciated =/
PS: I would be more than happy to have a stock rom again...as mentioned, cannot use a ruu.exe file, as it seems fastboot usb ist not recognizable by ruu.exe
Edit: After the 4th or 5th try, RUU recognized the phone when in fastboot usb mode, but update fdailed, cwm saif "security fail" ... sigh, seems I really blew it this time

Hi,
Start again using THIS GUIDE
Flash the boot.img from your ROM through fastboot.
Extra step 1 from this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=25587345
Be sure to use the boot.img from your ROM.
Then make a clean install of the ROM again.
Also, read that thread for the sake of understanding what you're doing.
There is NO need yet to flash an RUU.
Latest OTA comes with hboot 1.29 which is locked.
You might not be in the latest one, perhaps start with an RUU with.the latest fw (3.33).

but when rebooting the white screen with the green htc logo appears right away and nothing more happens...any idea? I may have messed up the kernel before, but when asked by ext4 recovery whether to flash a kernel, tried both custom and stock, none changed the problem with booting up

Have you updated to newest firmware 3.33? Some Roms require it most run 3.32 and 3.33 however I've noticed some asking for 3.33.perhaps this could be a issue? Does the Rom suggest on the developers site 3.33?
Just a thought? Your s off , you have 4ext recovery, your wiping cash and dalvik, wipe data factory reset, you have done all that, perhaps its the firmware? Also did you check the md5 sums before installing to make sure they match developers? If they don't match it could be a corrupted download. If they are matching I'd read over the specs for that particular Rom and see if 3.33 is a requirement. Best wishes.

as the rom is just flashed ..you need to wait until its properly booted ..then reboot to recovery again and flash the kernel (always flash mods/kernels is not advisable ...during first flash of ROM)
now ..do a complete wipe again (4EXT -> wipe|format -> format all partitions except sdcard) then flash the rom ..boot it up ..then go back to recovery and then flash the kernel

haha great couldnt be easier! I'll do that right now!
I was in OpenSense flashed with TWRP
I wanted to flash HyperNonsense to try.
But it called for 4ext
Long story short, I'm was stuck in cycle between HBOOT and HTC logo
I removed the SD and was able to get to Recovery Revolutionary CWM 4.0.1.4.
Unfortunately, it appeared to be messed as well.
I finally figured it out.
I loaded CM9RC2-pyramid.zip to the SD.
Booted to HBOOT and Recovery from there.
Flashed CM9 and voila, back to step one.
Now where was I.
Are you S-OFF?

But if it flashed 3.33, it was awful fast.
flashed the ROM and Bricked 3 kernel. See what comes.
Seems to have flashed Bricked OK and the ROM looks different so I assume HNS.
But when I pull down Notification bar, "Sorry try again". It would appear my radio is in between..........

If I had this error, I would start all over from flashing the Firmware 3.33 once again. It is possible the file was corrupted for some reason.

I stepped back to my previous ROM. Trying to restore from back up, but at least I have the ROM.
Perhaps I'll get some direct help from that thread, but none has been forthcoming so far.
Flash 3.33 firmware all over again, then flash a ROM.

I have the same problem.It happened after I flashed Sebastian's ROM, Revelation, 2 days ago.
My phone is in the same state, Unlocked and S-ON, HBOOT 1.27 . Since it's S-ON I always enable SmartFlash in 4EXT every time I want to flash a new ROM, and the same I did when I flashed Revelation, 2 days ago, but something went wrong and now I'm stuck at splash screen; it shows up for 5 seconds, then turns black, splash screen again and so on.
I can't even restore my nandroid that I did right before flashing Revelation.

if you are using 4ext recovery do this
format all partitions except sdcard
enable smartflash
flash the rom
otherwise flash the boot.img of the rom manually

Now i have reflashed the recovery but it is (recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.0.9-pyramid). I reflashed it because i couldnt find any 4ext recovery with s-on. Can you please tell me what to do next?

Get 4ext recovery from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1631861. It will be more helpful if you're flashing roms s-on.
Happy to help.

Did u relfash the rom from 4ext?
And note that first boot of any rom can take upto 10 mins. Be patient.

Do a full wipe except sdcard and then reflash. Post the results.
And before flash got to options (4ext recovery) and ensure smartflash is on.
This will work just fine (note: ViperS 3.1.0 available OTA).

Just to be sure, ensure:
You are htcdev unlocked s-on
You have 3.32/3.33 firmware (check using fastboot getvar version-main)
You chose full wipe except sdcard from 4ext recovery
At least wait 10 mins!!!
SmartFlash is on before flash
Don't choose CPU freq above 1782 in installation (dont overclock gpu too much either)
If you are still stuck, manually flash boot.img and see what happens.
This should work. Other wise try another rom (say, ViperS 3.1.0).

Check the md5 sum if that isnt the problem flash the boot image in fastboot mode.
If that doesn't work just try to s-off its better to do that since it gives you less headaches.

If this doesn't work either, it could be bad partition. Then (only as a last resort) do an ruu. That should definately fix your phone.
Happy to help.
