Well, tell us what happens.....bootloops?
Are you S Off?
Also, you should full wipe, or deleting all partitions in 4ext recovery, but not SD card of course. If you don't have 4ext, then you need it.

boot loops, yes that is what happening ((
i phone is s-off and i made full wipe.
i used clockworkmode.
i didn't try 4ext.

That's your problem, you need 4ext recovery. Search in the development section for it

Try flashing/reflashing a 3.32.xxx.x firmware base via bootloader the thread can be found in the development section by mike

4ext is just mandatory you can still install any rom via normal cwm or cwm touch.

Well, I figured since he already has firmware 3.32, missing 4ext could cause trouble. After all, remember that ARHD only works on 4ext? Even mike wrote in the OP 4ext is crucial for his ROM.
Anyway, here's a link for 4ext, download the attachment. Even if it's not the issue, 4ext is still better

Follow steps 2 & 3 from this guide.
Format all partitions except SD Card in 4ext recovery. (needed because you are moving to Sense 4.0)
Re-flash the ROM.
If still bootlooping, follow step Extra 1 from here.

[MISC] Desire S instructions to achieve custom ROM

could someone with a big heart tell me the instructions on what should i do after achieving S-OFF? can you post it as step by step? what should i install first? Recovery? Radio? flash? sorry for this question but im a bit confuse on what to do first after s-off until i flashed a cooked rom.. please do help me...
After root, firstly you flash a Recovery then you flash a Rom of your choice. Either with ROM Manager from the market or Manualy. You ll find more detailed instruction at the Recovery thread and the Rom thread.
when should i do a nand backup? flashing the radio? and sir whats the difference of clockworkmod recovery from ext4? because the thread of CWM says it is much better to go to ext4 thread? can you ellaborate to me?

As soon a you instal recovery perform backup
ext 4 is simply CWM base with extra additions...go with ext 4

So here is the order? S-off > root > flash with ext4 > full wipe > then install custom rom?

As it's your first time (I'd suggest)
(although as with any advice that you read on here it is given with best intention only and not necessarily correct....do this at your own risk)
1)
S-off (if by XTC this will also perform factory reset of your device so ensure you've sync'ed/ backed up data first)
2)
Download and run ginger break (to get root (then reboot)
3)
download and install the free application rom manager from android market
4)
Use rom manager to flash CWM (very simple option and it will do it for you)
5)
Use rom manager (gui - very easy) or CWM to perform your first full (Nandroid) backup
6)
follow wipe instructions that come with the custom rom installations instructions that you're planning on installing, if installing LBC rom (personally I've suggest this one) then there is a specific wipe script to run
7)
Download and Install custom rom
good luck
You can update to ext4 recovery at a later time when all the above has worked

If he uses the original CWM to do a wipe he will end up with an ext3 partition.
Better off installing cwm through rom manager and booting into recovery and flashing ext4 recovery. Then backup rom and flash custom rom.

O yer , good point, although if he installs ext4 afterwards won't it convert the ext 3 to ext4 for him?
Anyway I was suggesting that he runs LBC wipe all script that I believe will only make ext4 partitions

Did you install CWM recovery after getting S-OFF (alpharevx tool asks whether you want to)?
guyz little help here.. whenever i try to flash rom, it keep say error *****.zip(bad) ... how do i fix this? new to all this >.<
edit: okay nvm i guess its bad img .. is flashing now ~
actually im waiting for alpharevx windows version... i just want to know the step by step procedure on what to do first upto the last in order so i would not end up bricking my device..
TBH I've never used Linux before but just run Ubuntu from disc and it was pretty easy
I used this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...&postcount=138
Just dont follow steps 13, 14 (since this is for another phone)
Wew! finally I was able to S-off my Desire S! but my question is what's next?
Sorry I'm a total noob on this. Btw, After the s-off process, alpharevx said if I want to install clockwork recovery, I typed "Y" then it says "downloading clockwork for saga" but after that nothing happens. It's just stuck there so I disconnected my device and rebooted it.
How can I install clockwork and how can I root my device? thanks

[Q] Why BootLoop after Flashing?

Hi, I'm an Android user since HTC Hero (long time ago) and I've always played with recovery and custom ROM.
So i tought to have i quite good knowledge about this argoument, but i can't find a solution to my problem.
I've S-OFF my Sensation with the official HTC Guide and after that ive flashed clockworkmod recovery 5.0.2.0.
I've tried to flash either last InsertCoin and Stock-rooted 2.3.5 test build, but after the splash htc screen my phone stuck in bootloop. (i've wiped data, cache, dalvik)
The only solution to make it work is to restore my nandroid backup....
Any idea?
Thanks a lot

Hi,
Did you do the Super CID section of the s-off process?
This will enable you to flash any ROM.
Check the s-off guide in my signature.
it shoud be that i've installed stock HTC 2.3.4 radio?

Why did you do it with official HTC Guide? Now you lost part of your warranty.
I s-off´ed my Sensation XE with Revolutionary and everything went fine with flashing Roms.
Did you try to format system and data in CWM before flashing?
If this doesnt work you can also try to mount system and data in CWM.

Can I install a boot.img within phone?

Hi everyone, I have S-on still, I am wondering if I can pull the boot.img from a kernel of a rom and move somewhere to my sdcard if I wanted to flash a rom that doesnt have this built in to it...the reason I am asking is because alot of downtime at work and sometimes I want to tinker with other roms, but since I have hboot 1.27 most of the roms need the boot.img pushed, and I cant install software to do this on my work computer....If it can be done on the phone by using ES file explorer or something similar, can someone guid me on where to put the boot.img...i believe on the root of sd?....just curious here....thanks much...Larry

if you use 4ext recovery with s-on smart flash enabled it will flash the bootimg after it installs the rom i believe, so no need to manually flash the boot img. is this what you mean?

Yes.. Wait for 10 minutes max.. If it's not booting then.. You need to flash boot.img of the rom seperately from fastboot but that process requires pc access.. Or try this.. If not booted.. Go to recovery again.. Then enable smartflash again and immediately flash the rom.. Without doing any wipe.. This might work

are you 100% sure smart flash is enabled? when you flash some roms like arhd it flashes a new 4ext as well i think.
if you do then im not 100% sure on how to proceed. have you thought about just going full s-off? once you have it you dont need to flash the bootimg afterwards

This is normal for Smart Flash, the device will boot to the splash screen then flash the boot.I mg then reboot again but all the way nto the ROM on the second reboot. Also I know you can flash splashscreens and recoveries via Terminal Emulator but I am not sure about the boot.img. From what I am do know about Android I am thinking you probably can not but it is worth a Google search.
Ok, so I downloaded the Elegancia Pegasus, I went into 4ext recovery, did a super wipe, turned on smart flash, installed the rom zip, did not reboot but enabled smart flash again, and then installed the rom again..(reason for this was I was thinking maybe it installed a new 4ext)..I really dont think it did though, but still stuck at the white htc screen...I may have to just do this from a computer...weird thing is that Elegancia sense 4.x 3.1.0 flashes just fine, but i imagine thats because that Boot.img is not getting written over by the pegasus one..any other ideas?...the ext recovery I am using is the stable most current release btw..thanks everyone...Dirtylarry

indeed, but he can do that at home with His pc then he will be able to flash any rom he likes without the need of smartflash. thus solving his problem and allowing him to flash roms at work when he has some spare time allowing he already has the roms with him, or he can still download

[Q] Do i need S-off ? CWM

Yesterday i rooted my phone, using the all in one tool. My phone is still S-on i do have superSU installed. When i use the bootmenu from my Sensation i also can go to CWM recovery program.

Which firmware are you on? Did you update to Sense 3.6 + ICS with official update?
Did you unlock your bootloader through HTCDev ?
If you're on the latest firmware, flash the latest ext4 recovery. Before flashing a ICS / JB rom, on 4EXT, go to Tools - Enable Smartflash. You need this to flash custom roms with S-ON.
My sensation is S-ON and so far it's been a flawless feature. No need to flash kernels and boot.imgs through apt anymore
Thankz, i did the HTC dev unlock method and i have the latest official updates from HTC. i have flashed only the CWM image using the all in one tool for sensation.So if i understand you correctly i only have to flash the EXT4 image to the sensation which is part of the all in one tool for sensation.And i can install custom roms without using S-off?.

once you flash the 4ext recovery the all in one tool is no longer necessary
then from recovery go

and at the bottom of the menu you will see the smartflash feature
enable it
after that go back
choose zip from sdcard
install zip from sdcard
thank you very much
Okay mow a little question how can i adjust my cpu frequenti (overclock) because the atuntu cpu master wont go further then 1188mhz.I found a zip file named Overclocked_kernel_v1.5.2_by_SebastianFM but when i want to install this file using the clockwork mod recovery it says that the installation failed.
Because i am trying to copy the url from xda app and i can' t do it ok then
Use the search and write(if your error is status 7)
Assert failed status 7 sensation
Download and flash the insecure.img
After that flash the kernel

Okay now another short question if in time i do want to change my original ROM to an custom ROM al i have to do is put the custom ROM on the SD Card and install the rom using the EXT4 recovery. Or do i have to change the system partition just like with the HD2
And if i want to go back from Custom to original all i have to do is place the original ROM on a SD card and instal it from EXT4 ??

I really need help here guys. I am rooting my friends HTC Sensation 4G (T-Mobile) and I think i might have broken the OS.
I can still get into recovery mode and flash, but my ROMs crash as soon as I boot. The phone even runs into a boot loop sometimes depending on which ROM. Can anybody guide me to bring the phone back to stock? I would GREATLY appreciate it.

Yes, it say's S-OFF at the top. I also already used revolutionary to achieve S-OFF and get CWM... Now what? I still can't do anything.. Do i flash ICS? What ROM do you recommend? Please, show me steps if that is possible.

Can you link me to a good ROM for that? Do i just throw it on my SD card and flash it?

Hi,
I gave you a GB ROM to flash.
That should get your phone running again.
Then, I gave you a link to a guide which will install 4 EXT recovery,update your firmware and radio,and install ARHD ICS ROM.
Please read the link carefully,and follow it to the letter.

I tried that, and it failed on me. It bootloops on the HTC logo now. I need to return this phone to my friend by tomorrow.
I don't know if this is too much to ask, but would anybody mind assisting me through a google hangouts video chat? I could do it tomorrow at about 4PM. I really need to get this fixed.... Like bad.
Wipe the phone. Then Flash the original OS with Odin. Problem solved, then try rooting again

I don't know what I did... but I managed to get Cyanogen Mod working.. I'm scared to touch anything else lol. It's working flawlessly so far.
