Bootloop, nothing helps... - HTC Sensation

First of all, sorry for my bad english
Today I bought a sensation with gb on it, unlocked bootloader and s-on.
i tried to get s-off, but i couldn't. so i tried to put ics without s-off. now with ics the phone is not start, it stay on htc logo. with gb it is bootloop. i already tried to put official gb on it, but i can't, becouse 'ERROR 155'. what should i do?

This is the Development section. Please ask a mod to move this to general. Also there are a ton of stickies available that deal with this. Please follow all directions next time when doing anything to your device. XDA isnt responsible in anyway for what may or may not happen with your device. Good luck and welcome to XDA

you tried to put official gb on it ...means i presume you tried to run the ruu
ERROR 155 corresponds to either connection issues/improper bootloader
to run the ruu..two things needed to be checked
1.if you got unlocked bootloader ..then relock it again
2.run the RUU from pc connecting the phone in fastboot mode (phone should read "fastboot usb")

I am stuck for 2 days Need help PLZ

Hi guys
I have really strange problem, could you please help me out.
I am was using insert coin rom 4.4.1 and every thing was good so far,
Then i have realized that i have s- off and rooted my phone but i didn't super cid it
So i want to do that, i have supercid it by following the steps listed in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1192300.
After i reboot the phone, it stayed in the flash screen (HTC screen)
I have reinstalled the rom and even other roms, but nothing was done.
I have tried to reflash it using firmwire 3.24 but samething.
FYI: i have already supercid it i have checked it by adb and it is 11111111
There is small problem, i didn't remember my proper cid, all i know it is a europe version of sensation.
i have this written in recovery session:
REVOLUTIONARY
pyramid PUT ship s off RL
boot 1.27.1110
Radio 11.21.3504.13.2
Open ADSP V02-6-0.2226.00.0104
EMMC-boot

Please help me i am lost here, DONT TELL ME THAT I HAVE DAMAGED THE PHONE!!
Thanks
Not sure if this will help
Hey I am not sure about your problem not heard of this. Maybe you need to super cid before flashing new firmware. Maybe if you can remember what your cid was before, you can change back and see if it makes any difference. maybe once returned to the stock cid you can revert firmware and then super cid. I am not sure though! I am just taking a stab at it since no one else has answered. here is a link with some firmware and it also tells stock cid's for different carriers/countries. Also maybe try flashing different firmware.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1459767
maybe that will refresh your memory to what yours was.
Good Luck
P.S. I think that since you still have access to recovery you will be able to resolve the issue (not hard bricked yet), just need to figure out what the problem is exactly.
Given that you still have access to your SDcard, trying flashing a new rom and firmware (go for Virtuous Inquisition).
ungraph:
I have already tried other roms:
Android rev-hd 3-16-13: negative result
RCMix_ICS_v311_STbase: negative result
The problem is all roms stuck in the splash screen, i have looked in some threads that some people have 30 min for the first boot, for me i kept it for 1 hour or more but it seems that it is stuck, i have checked the temp it isn't hot so may be when i have supercid it , did i make something wrong to supercid it after installing the rom??

If you wanna use ARHD 3.6.13 you need to downgrade your firmware to 3.12 or 1.17 it won't run on 3.24
I would downgrade your firmware, go to a GB rom, get it so your phone boots, then go through the process of going back to ICS.

Last time when I had major issue with my phone, I flashed couple different firmwares and different ICS and GB ROM. And somehow it worked for me. I'm just saying there's always hope. Dont give up! And good luck!
flash the latest official eu RUU, if nothing works.
You can always s-off/root then afterwards.

Nothing, most do not use fastboot commands, so don't worry about it. You are still s-off and able to flash any rom you desire.

you need to STOP flashing random firmware...if you don't know what it is and what the outcome is going to be, do not flash it

I have downgraded my firmwire to 3.12 and i have used hd 3.16.13 GB rom.
The bad news is that nothing done yet, stucking in HTC splash screen.
But there is something i want to add, may be is the clue to this problem .
I have realized that when i remove my SD card from the phone and i want to read it in my PC, it appears protected each time and this is strange (virus effect).
may be my SD card was damaged and it is the only problem of stucking???
What do you think guys??

Perhaps you accidentally set some sort of sharing protection on the SD card, which doesn't let the phone access the adequate files? If so, try reformatting your card on fat32. And then copy back the firmware/rom and attempt flashing again.
i have already formatted the SD card, coping Rom and firmwire PG58IMG reflash the rom .
Still stuck in HTC S screen.
What about RUU?
Any suggestion ?
Hi guys

i entred by bootloader menu then go to recovery menu
I have written in cmd "adb devices" then it is written

If your bootloader says LOCKED like you previously indicated then you can not use fastboot commands as kpjimmy already said. Because you never supercid your phone you probably have some partial firmware update.
If I were you I would flash an older RUU to get to a known stable config and then start over.
No i have changed the firmwire and it is written revolutionary in purple.

You have to remove the firmware from the card after flashing it. But to bypass it, does your phone boot once you flash the rom and then remove the sd card?
kpjimmy
when i updated the firmware hboot then the phone wrote push the power button to reboot, the problem is the phone will try to run the rom already installed in the phone, so i am forced to remove the battery and then remove the firmware from my PC.
in order to install the new rom.

[Q] Screaming for help! (bootloop on xe)

Ok, so I was trying to upgrade my sensation xe's firmware for the installation of Android revolution HD, but unfortunately... I thought it had finished updating when it turned back into bootloader, so i rebooted and it stops at the beats logo and reboots. So I read once again all the instructions and it turned out that it hadn't finished updating. What can I do to stop the bootloop? I can factory reset and erase everything on it if i need to, i just got the phone so there isn't much on it.
EDIT: It gives me an error when i boot into bootloader and it tries to update with the PG58IMG.zip: CID is incorrect.
Maybe that's because i didn't superCID? I didn't superCID because the OP here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1412618 said "If you have Super-CID, it can be flashed even on regular Sensation (PG5813000)." So I thought that I didn't need it for the xe.
I had a similar issue when i first got my sensation. Can you get into bootloader? and if so does it try to update firmware again?
Yes I can, and yes it does, it gives me CID is incorrect. But now it doesn't bootloop, it just stays at the htc screen and doesn't move...
You obviously have the wrong firmware for your CID. Because you are not super-cid it means you have to have a firmware that is specific to your cid. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1459767
This thread explains how to get the right firmware and find your phones cid but im not sure how youd go about it if your phone wont boot.
My CID is HTC_E11 i think. It had an 11 in it anyway....

You can try flashing the User Friendly Firmware from here - Do download the right file according to your CID/Location
Alternatively, you can always revert to Hboot 2.17 from the same link.
Well if thats the case, put your sd card into your computer if you can, delete the PG58IMG.zip in there and replace it with the correct one from that thread and let the bootloader update it. But before downloading one off there make sure you get the right version which for android revolution will be 3.30
Hope you manage to get this sorted.
Cid is incorrect.... see picture attached.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1195475
have a read of this thread, the guy on there has made a list of CID's. He also put which phones and networks have which CID.
Unfortunately my cid is not there as I bought mine from egypt, but anyway I bought the phone unlocked.
have you tried flashing hboot 1.17?
I'll try it now.
Is it factory unlocked with no branding? and was that incorrect cid message when trying to update with the firmware from the link?
I think my problem is solved!!!! Thank you guys The firmware i had was the wrong version now i'm waiting for it to boot... it's taking a long time though...
I'll wait and just hope for the best... if it doesn't work i'll try to put hboot 1.17
If it has fixed your problem, it might be benificial to super-cid. Purely because each rom usually reccomends different peoples firmwares, and lets face it, better to flash the reccomended one and be safe. Plus with supercid you havent got to worry that it will do this again if you get the wrong one
It seems to be working as it doesn't give me the CID is incorrect error but now it doesn't boot, it just stays at the htc screen....
EDIT: I guess it's the right firmware because it doesn't give me the error, but it's not working, so should i try a restore?
Is the firmware still on your SD card? if so delete it then go into recovery and flash the ROM you wanted. the reason its stuck on the HTC screen is probably because the ROM that you are coming from cant work on the current firmware.
As sparx180 said, remove the PG58IMG file from your sd card or remove your sd card temporarily while you get into bootloader, then with your phone plugged into your pc change the cid to supercid, re-add the PG58IMG file or re-insert your sd card, reboot the bootloader and let it update. I had the same thing with the cid last night on my girlfriend's phone, bloody pain in the ass!
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710 using XDA App
Oh and the restore is not a good idea if you are not on the same firmware version that you made the backup on. If you cannot get it to boot then you can always flash the firmware you were on before attempting this update and restore a back up and start from scratch.
So should i flash the rom first or supercid first? I'm coming from the stock rom...

Help an idiot out

so i unlocked my device via HTCDev.com thinking since its htc device and all they said was i had to unlock bootloader to flash custon OS's i already knew about S-OFF but being the site didn't talk about it(why would it) i went and flash virtouous ROM and got stuck at the HTC screen. i wasnt thinking so i never backed up the stock HTC Rom!!
now i tried 2 of those RUU's in the shipped rom thread the tmous ones with 29 and 50 both saying wrong version.
my question here is there anyway to get at least one RUU to work or get s-off from HBOOT?
my reason of doing this after going back to completely stock is i cant wait any longer for HTC/Tmobile to get us ICS so i tried the custom way and failed lol
I am sure unless you super SID you will have to find ROMs specific for the country the phone came from.
Eg my phone was from Asia region and I could not flash Euro ROMs
ok from the Shipped rom thread in the dev section for the sensation i was trying to go back to stock to gain s-off but the tmous(USA) which is where i am from said wrong version.

What h boot version do you have?
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G with Beats Audio using xda premium
Hboot: 1.18.0000
Check your CID using fastboot getvar cid to see if these still match the ROM you were trying to flash.
says for cid is t-mob010
i guess out of the 2 stock ruu"s from the post doesnt match that?
edit: ok from what i learned in another post i opened up the rom.zip file and looked at android-info.txt both the cid and mid matched my phones from the RUU file "RUU_Pyramid_TMOUS_1.50.531.1_Radio_10.56.9035.00U_10.14.9035.01_M_release_223976_signed" buuuuttttt it tried to update it but fails saying i need to correct version :\

Yes i am. the 2 Ruu's i am using seem to have matching info to my phone when i went to get the rom.zip it uses to send to my phone and looked in the android-info.txt but tell me to get the correct RUU and try again. i got the from here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1074559 under the tmous RUU one with 29 and the other 50.
so i am just stuck at the white screen with the word HTC. if i could get s-off and SuperCID through fastboot that would be awesome but googling it shows up that i cant s-off via fastboot ughhh
still no luck cant seem to flash anything without s-off or supercid
so looks like i am jumping the boat going to sprint this thursday and geting the iphone 4s...byebye android
If you can get into fastboot you should be able to flash RUU from there. Just download the RUU.exe and run it as administrator. Follow the prompts in the exe program while your phone is in fastboot mode.

Maybe iCrap is better for you. When you use Android phones and want to complete unlock them for flashing customroms aso you shoud realy learn to read before you do something. I hate it when people are not able to read about the stuff they want to do and when something goes wrong they blaim Android for it.
To get s-off, super CID and root on a HTC Android device is realy easy if you read the how-to threads and normaly takes about 15 minutes.
Have fun with your iCrap 4S and please don't try to jailbreak it before you read some stuff.
Sent from my Revolver powered ICS Asus Transformer TF101
first off let me say i have rooted and flashed roms on my sensation before just fine. i was unlocking via htcdev.com and figured their method didnt require s-off since it didnt say anything about it. it just talked about unlocking it to put customs os's on it. 2nd i always had a love hate thing for IOS since i had the 3G and ipod touch.
far as using the RUU'ss it tells me i need the correct Ruu version or something like that. maybe because i didnt run as admin but i have all that stuff turned off due to the theme i used for windows 7 required it off.
If I were you I would Super CID your device. That is what I had to do. A great guide that I used was http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1472298
i tried and i get this error

You can recover this. Firstly read this guide, regarding downgrading hboot and getting s-off.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=23222794
The problems are due to HTC.dev not unlocking all parts of the boot loader - you can't flash radio.img or boot.img so nothing is working.

[Q] Htc sensation 1.27 hboot 3.32 help needed

Hi the girlfriend has well and truely messed up her phone so any help anyone could give would help.
Ok first off she has a htc sensation hboot 1.27 not sure if it's gb or ics but it's 3.32 so would expect it to be ics.
Is stuck s-on not rooted and had USB disabled before the issue started.
Ok the thing is its stuck at the hboot screen I can get to fastboot (USB and ac). But that's as far as it goes.
It's a stock Vodafone rom and is CID locked to uk voda.
I can't access it with adb believe me I've tried or controlbear.
I have located the correct ruu to try and reflash the phone but I get error 170 or 171 USB errors.
So I tried extracting the rom and loading it via the sd which it finds checks and then goes back to the hboot screen without any
Error message so I'm stumped as to what to do now.
Thanks in advance if anyone can help

[Q] Phone wont get past android logo

All of a sudden one day I turned it on and it wouldnt go past the htc logo. It comes on, stays on the logo for a few seconds then reboots. I dont know what could have caused this but my friend had it for the day and when I got it back this started happening. I've tried turning the phone on without a simcard and memory card, fractory reseting and wiping the cache partition.
I am a newb but have gotten a reasonable amount of knowlege on android over the past 24 hours but so far none of the posts or information i've gotten on the internet has proven useful. Does anyone know of a solution or advice which may help me with booting to my os.
By the way I have an HTC sensation 4g on T-mobile
Not to sure of the version of android thou but I have a HBOOT of 1.18.

I tried flashing but i only got a little farther then kept restarted again. I turned it on the next morning and it wouldnt even turn on.
Need more details...
Stock?
Rooted?
S-on or s-off?
Custom recovery installed?
One thing is for sure, your phone isn't bricked and can be restored. The details of the device in the questions above are needed to determine exactly how to fix it though.
It sounds like your ROM got corrupted. (I can't even guess how) Ultimately you will be able to fix this by installing a new ROM. It's just a matter of figuring out what procedures you need to use based on your set up in order to do that.

It sounds like your ROM got corrupted. (I can't even guess how) Ultimately you will be able to fix this by installing a new ROM. It's just a matter of figuring out what procedures you need to use based on your set up in order to do that.

It is stock, but i flashed it from gb to ics to try to resolve the problem. Rooted with htcdev, s-on. Also I installed CWM after it began to do that. I flashed a new hboot but that solved nothing, the next day it got worse and wouldn't even turn on.

you should used revolutionary.io method to S-OFF easily your device with that hboot version
that means that you have GB firmware and an ICS rom can't run in that fw version
while your are S-ON you should have installed 4ext recovery,enable smartflash from it and then flash a GB rom
after that you said you flashed a new hboot
i am not sure if you can do that as your are S-ON
and the result is not even turning on!
it seems to me that your device is bricked
use the unbricking project from dev section
edit:can you still enter to bootloader?

I cannot use revolutionary because i get the phone to go past the htc logo. I could only get into the bootloader. I upgraded from 1.18 to 1.27 so s-on didnt matter. I tried to unbrick but it said no device found.

from fastboot connect your device into the pc
go to the folder where you have adb and fastboot files
open a command window there and do
fastboot getvar version-main
i assume you have 3.32.or3.33 firmware but do it
if yes then from this thread do step 2

after that enable smartflash from recovery and flash an ics rom
