Alright stop by this threadhttp://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1459767 grab the 3.32 firmware zip. Put it on the root of your sd card, boot into your hboot, allow the update. Restart to recovery flash Rom. Should stop your boot loop issue.

Hi all! Just tried installing a new ROM, Virtous, this is my 5th rom i have installed and had no problems in the past. This one says i need to install their firmware first, so i downloaded that, booted up recovery and tried installing this zip from there but it wont install? When i try to start up the rom it just sticks at the V logo screen for 10 seconds then reboots... it keeps doing this, left it for 20+ mins but no luck!
Any help please? Thanks guys
First thing u have to have supercid. If u don't have done that the firmware won't install itself properly.
After that just put the zip on your sd card and start recovery. the firmware will install itself.

Thanks for your reply. Supercid? Im really sorry but im abit of a noob at this... where do i get this from/how do i install it?
No problem just check the guide in the development forum.I think it's step 4. you need the program adb. But the guide will tell you exactly what to do.

Brilliant ill take a look at that. Thanks alot bud
i didn't have supercid.
i just s-off and install cwm and can flash Virtuous Sensation. i don't even root my stock rom.
before flashing Virtuous Sensation, i wipe data first in cwm.
Well then you are a lucky guy..... I had to do it as described on top
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using xda premium
Yes you have to Supercid first, if not than you cant install the firmware. Once Supercid is installed complete a FULL WIPE and reboot, if the firmware zip is detected install it and than you can install the rom.
Today , i successfully rooted my HTC Sensation 4G, everything was working totally fine, but then I wanted to install and custom ROM , called Super Villain Shensation.
I followed everything like the instructions told me to, but it says that the installation was aborted. and when i want to reboot my phone, it just stays on the white HTC logo screen, and doesnt do anything. I am able to get to the bootloader, but when i try recovery the same thing happens. what do i do !?
First of all, it is not bricked. Moving forward you need to re-download the ROM to make sure it is not a corrupted download, then try to flash again.
In order it would be:
-re download ROM again (I would personally suggest a ginger bread ROM that doesn't require you to flash firmware and such)
-download super wipe
-put them both in your sd card, somewhere where you could find the files
-go into your recovery and flash the super wipe zip (found in the Android Revolution thread)
-flash ROM
-let it boot (it will take about 5 minutes)
-done

Need tothrow the pg85.img zip on the root of you're sd card then boot into bootloader. Follow on screen instructions.
Sent From Space Using My ICS Flavored Sensation
Go to your bootloader like previous poster said and paste this file in the root of your sd card.
-Press the up volume rocker once you get the prompt to do it
If everything goes the way is suppose to go, you will be able to get into recovery again and flash whatever ROM you like.
This file contains Clockwork recovery

Did you superCID? If not, what is your CID, because the file: P58IMG.zip is the firmware package for your device, and it's CID dependent. Get the one you need from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1459767

What is you hboot if it's 1.18 or below and since you're r now s-on you need to run an ruu for ics that is closes to you stock rom. To upgrade your firmware to an ics compatible firmware. If it's 1.2x then you can htc-dev unlock and if you want s-off use jb then flash 4ext recovery even if your just htc-dev unlock. If your just htc-dev unlocked in 4ext enable smart flash. Now your good to go!

yes, all the drivers are installed correctly. when I connect the phone to pc and click on fast boot, fastboot use is in red color. as you told "try flashing recovery", I was trying it once again. But, no use.
Do u get any error while flashing recovery or it says flashing successfull.
If you cnt flash recovery all you left is to do soff so you can flash any recovery and flash the Rom
And if everything fails then you will hve to flash a RUU

Are you S-On? Which recovery are you using? Use 4Ext and enable smart flash feature if S-On and then flash ROM again. Or else flash Boot.img extracted from Rom zip via fastboot.

This error can happen, no big deal. When I had this rom a change in kernel fixed it. So just get any ics kernel from the help thread (eg bricked 1.4 or Sebastianfm) That will fix it.
Though you should try ViperS 3.1.2. That's awesome.
JAM THAT THANKS BUTTON.

If you're S-On I recommend using 4Ext as there is a smartflash feature which remove the Extra 1 step of flashing boot.img everytime you flash ROM. If you're S-off then you can stick with CWM.
