[Q] 1.17 S-OFF Revert to stock GB - HTC Sensation

Can anyone help me to revert my HTC Sensation with Android Revolution ROM, 1.17 boot, S-OFF, 1.0.0.2 4EXT to stock GB ROM ?
I tried to recover some old backup but unfortunately it seems that it is corrupted, md5 check didn't passed.
All partitions are formated, but recovery and 4EXT still works,
So far tried to recover old ROM from OTA_Pyramid_HTC_Europe_1.45.401.2-1.35.401.1_P2_release_208907.zip but with some errors appeared.
I want to go back to original GB rom or ICS just to sell my phone, got now SG S3.
What should I do, thank you for any help.

If your going to sell it just download the full ruu on your pc

Just now I restored tha last working backup and now downloading 'RUU_Pyramid_HTC_Europe_1.27.401.3_Radio_10.42.9007.00P_10.11.9007.15_M_release_192183_signed.exe but what to do with it next, install it from windows ?
Before I will sell it, I want to have possibility to download official update to ICS just to try how it works, but I would be glad if this phone would be totally free of my modifications (S-OFF and root access) just like a stock, new one.

Thats it your on the right track and you will install from Windows

First is really old,second I found on my computer described as original rom. After executing this second RUU I only have one choice to update ROM - my actual and working ROM AR HD 4.1.1 is described as 2.08.401.1, RUU is 1.35.401.1 right after process starts it get's me to update error - 155, this error is described as not right update software, but my language is Polish and I think I chose right update. First RUU gives the same error.

Hey, that's easy, don't worry.
Follow this guide: http://tinyurl.com/RUUGuide
to find your right RUU & instructions on how to flash it.
You'll need to flash the RUU twice. (Hboot pre-update)

It's a pain but you may have to try a different ruu try one with ics

Thank you both I will try it right now and would be happy to learn something.
My blind guess is that maybe I flashed some strange radio version few months ago, right now I have Radio_10.58.9035.00U_10.15.9035.02_2, could this be a reason to my update errors ?

There was nothing wrong with the phone, it was temp rooted.

Temp root wasn't removed.

Stuck in boot loop

Hello everybody,
I've a problem since yesterday, my HTC Sensation XE doesn't boot anymore.
I wanted to download the newest Insertcoin ROM (I'm S-OFF, rooted and wroten superCID). In the topic of the Insertcoin ROM indicated that I need firmware 3.24. So I downloaded that firmware, installed it on my phone (power+volume down) and then... broken phone. When I turned my phone on, it showed the green HTC logo and the beats logo and it started over again. I've tried very much (install very much other firmwares, restore to my last backup, factory reset) but nothing helps!
This is the topic of the insertcoin mod: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1468683
I hope someone can help me.
Thanks!
Nicola
Try this:
1. Check MD5 sum of 3.24 firmware and if OK, re-flash.
2. Remove PG58IMG.zip from your SD card and boot into recovery (VOL- / POWER).
3. Run the superwipe script.
4. Check MD5 sum of your ROM and if OK, re-flash.
5. Don't install any other mods, just reboot and let the ROM startup - may take 5-10mins for the first boot.
I got it working!
I downloaded the leaked android 4.0.1 ruu. I installed it, then I used the backup!
Thank you for your help!

It looks like you didn't let the firmware update complete, you don't have the correct radio from the firmware.
try to use Kohr-Ah's Firmware (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1192300)
Downgrade your FW by selecting correct CID/FW and re-flash it by 3.24 again by your own CID/FW

Then tried to install last RDHD gingerbread version(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1098849)

Tried a few other ROMs, only like 4 of them.
Oh yeah I searched everywhere even on other websites besides XDA!! Nothing solved it, nothing.

Now I am at a point where I can't seem to understand what the f*ck is going on. I tried this GUIDE (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1472298)

Try superwipe, reformat SD, download from & firmware (fw 3.24/3.25 for ARHD 6.2.1, fw 3.32 for ARHD 6.5.1) and flash it again:
- put firmware PG58IMG.zip, Superwipe Script and ROM zip on SD root
- check md5 hash
- check md5 hash again
- boot into recovery
- flash Superwipe script
- flash ROM
- reboot into bootloader
- flash PG58IMG.zip (this will reboot automatically once during the process)

[Q] HTC Sensation 4G stuck. Won't boot. Bricked?

Hello,
I am having some trouble with my T-mobile Sensation 4G. I was trying to install a Rom and seemed to have failed. At this point it will not boot past the first white screen with the green HTC logo.
I can get it into fastboot and Clorkwork mod recovery. However, I am not really sure what to do.
I have tried superwipe and it fails. Bootloader screen is as follows:

Most likely the rom will not boot on your current firmware. What rom is installed?
Option 1 is to restore a backup since you can access recovery.
Option 2 is to put the correct firmware on your SD using a PC, reinsert and let your phone update.

I don't think any rom is installed. It never got that far.
I first tried to update using this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1542192
However the update failed. After that the phone was just going into a reboot loop when I tried to start it up. I then tried to flash a new rom in the hopes it would fix whatever problem the first failure caused. I was following this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1098849
I was able to update the firmware from the linked page on that guide:
Firmware from 3.32.401.x & 3.32.401.10x RUU
I then tried to flash the Android Revolution HD 6.5.2 rom. It failed and when i tried to reboot it just hangs as described above. I tried to use superwipe and it also fails. I am sure at this point it is obvious I am lost.
Option 1 is not an option as I don't have a backup.
Option 2 may be an option, but I apparently don't know what the correct firmware is.....
Thanks again for the help.
I went back into fastboot and then recovery and tried to use superwipe, but that failed.
Option 1 is a no go because I do not have a backup.
Use this firmware instead.. it's worked well for me no matter which ICS rom I've installed..
Firmware from 3.24.401.1 & 3.25.401.101 RUU from http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1412618
Don't get it confused with the one you've already tried. Then after you flash that version of the firmware, remove it from sdcard and flash a rom. It's worked for me as it should for you as well.. Hope this helped.. I'm also assuming that you've Super CID your device....
if this helped, slap the thanks button... thanks

I was not able to boot normally after installing this firmware, but it did allow me to complete the superwipe. That was failing beforehand. Once I was able to wipe the phone I was then able to install a rom. The phone is back up and running now. Thanks again for the help. I appreciate you guys taking the time.

It because you've tried to flash a GB RUU with ICS firmware.
You need to go find the 1.17 firmware package from Mikes thread, install that then run the older RUU. This will return you to stock and remove your root. S-OFF should remain untouched.

I was happy t see your post but unfortunatly i have xp pc and that solution works only on win 7.
Any other way ??
If you place the 1.17 firmware on to the root of your SD then boot into boot loader the update will start automatically, power off, remove the 1.17.zip from the sd, then flash any of the GB roms.
Once you have a booting rom again, just plug the phone in via USB and run the chosen RUU. The RUU will replace everything bar your s-off. It will install the stock recovery, radio, rom etc.
Make sure you have all the correct drivers installed, if your unsure still there are numerous guides in the dev forum.

But still stuck with htc logo.Got this rom from mediafire coz all links are dead megaupload.
I am noob.
try flashing any of the custom GB roms first (android revolution for example) before you run the RUU.
You need a booting rom before you flash the RUU. Remember to flash the superwipe.zip before flashing android revolution.
Hope you get some joy.

Bought second hand XE, Don't know where to begin with roms

Hi,
I just bought a second hand Sensation XE that is already rooted (checked with root checker), hboot says s-off (but bootloader is LOCKED), even the XDA market was on it (although in Chinese). I want to install the Revolution Rom, but the problem is that i've only ever done this once with my old Desire HD and at that time i started from a brand new unrooted phone, step by step until it was rooted,s-off,clockwork and rom installed etc. etc. Now that i don't need to start from the beginning, i don't actually have a clue where to start. I don't even remember how to check if clockwork mod is on it. Here's what i have in System info:
android version 2.3.5
HTC sense version 3.5
Software number xda_smallleizi_cn
When i look in the FAQs, i just get confused about where i'm up to. And with the risk of bricking, i'm not so willing to jump in anywhere.
Can someone give me some advice on where i should start?
If you're into going through the whole process from A to Z, you can use an RUU matching your device. It will turn the phone into stock and you could follow all the steps in the ARHD thread.
But.. since it seems the phone is rooted, i would continue from there. Install 4ext recovery, 3.33 kohr-ah firmware than flash ARHD 6.7.2.
See my signature for the links.

I would once your confident with flashing roms , try out several different roms and see which one suites your needs most . This is the fun part. Don't just limit yourself to one ROM . There are so many wonderful choices I highly suggest you try several before you make your choice on your daily Rom . Experiment a bit, you won't be sorry. Happy flashing ! Best wishes!

The key thing is S-OFF, try to make sure you keep this. That is the most important thing.
Have you got a custom recovery ? (CWM or 4EXT). If not get one I use CWM but old hat as most folks use 4EXT now. Then get used to the nandroid backups that they do. essentially a full backup/restore apart from firmware.
As someone else said try the various ROMs.
All the custom ROMs will have Superuser (root) enabled. The only decision is AOSP or Sense based.
Have fun, it'll cost bandwidth downloading the ROMs so do it where you have free LAN/WiFi

Bootloops occur when the firmware and the rom/kernel do not match.
From the edit, it looks like you have successfully flashed the 3.33 firmware. All that is left now is to flash a matching rom.
You could start with Android revolution HD, please find the link in my signature.
You might just have to flash it twice, if you do not have 4ext recovery installed (first flash will make sure 4ext is set, the other will utilize 4ext for a successful rom flashing).
Before flashing the rom, it is recommended to also perform a 'superwipe' which erases any leftovers from previous rom. Those might cause compatibility issues. The flashable superwipe zip can be found on the first post of ARHD.
One last thing, before any flash, make sure the zip was.downloaded.correctly. this can be achieved by comparing the MD5 signatures on the site, and one that you can compute on your device prior to flashing.
Happy flashing

From the edit, it looks like you have successfully flashed the 3.33 firmware. All that is left now is to flash a matching rom.
You could start with Android revolution HD, please find the link in my signature.
You might just have to flash it twice, if you do not have 4ext recovery installed (first flash will make sure 4ext is set, the other will utilize 4ext for a successful rom flashing).
Before flashing the rom, it is recommended to also perform a 'superwipe' which erases any leftovers from previous rom. Those might cause compatibility issues. The flashable superwipe zip can be found on the first post of ARHD.
One last thing, before any flash, make sure the zip was.downloaded.correctly. this can be achieved by comparing the MD5 signatures on the site, and one that you can compute on your device prior to flashing.
Happy flashing

I guess i jumped to conclusions too soon and assumed a bootloop was a really bad situation. I went into recovery and flashed ARHD and everything went very well.
Thanks for the help everyone.
