Need help gaining back my phone warranty. - HTC Sensation

Hi,
I'm using sensation xe ICS (S-OFF, custom recovery 4ext)
I believe that my phone is having hardware issue that I'm thinking to send it back for repair.
It happened 1 day ago that my phone freezes 4 times in 1 days (It was completely fine since I flashed to ICS). My wifi starts unable to switch on with 'Turning Wi-Fi on' appears but nothing happens. I tried to do factory reset but doesn't help. I searched some threads that they say it might be hardware problem.
I am trying to follow the instruction from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1192300 (I'm not sure if this method is fine for my phone) to S-ON my phone so that I can get my warranty back. But I am stuck trying to reflash a official rom that my pc cannot detect my phone.
Can anyone help me with this please? Or is there any other way I can get back warranty?
Thank you
Below are all the detail I can find from my phone.
PYRAMID PVT SHIP S-OFF RL
HBOOT-1.27.0000
RADIO-11.22.3504.07_M
OpenADSP-v02.6.0.2226.00.0131
Android version - 4.03
Software number - 3.33.401.106

hi mate i guess that problem is due to the rom,why dont you try to flash the rom to any stable one like ELEGANTIA or ARHD or any other stable rom and chk that this problem is still there or its gone.....
and now reverting your mobile back to S-ON is risky and once i tried it earlier and got my mob fully bricked.. but i managed to send back the bricked mob and get a replacement but i don't recommend it..

can you precisely tell me what error you are getting when flashing the stock rom

Yes, I'm not sure what I did is right.
I was trying to flash my phone using RUU_PYRAMID_LE_ICS_35_S_HTC_Europe_3.32.401.105_R_Radio_11.69.3504.00U_11.22.3504.07_M_release_251961_signed.exe through pc. But the installer says that unable to detect my phone and please make sure my phone is connected to pc using usb. But my phone already connected in charge only mode.
Something more to add.
I just remembered that I accepted an update few days ago (alert pop up in phone). and my ICS is now 3.33 not 3.32.
I am trying to flash my phone back to 3.32 to see if problem still exists. But I am not sure how I can flash through sd card, my hboot now is 1.27, I have seen somewhere says that 1.27 is different

you are SOFF so you can RUN any RUU
i guess you got error 155
the problem here is you need to connect the phone in bootloader/fastboot to pc ..before running RUU
this should resolve your problem

Hey, thank you for your help. I have flashed my phone everything's fine now.
Stupid me, I forgot to install htc driver

I downloaded RUU_Pyramid_TMOUS_1.50.531.1_Radio_10.56.9035.00U_10.14.9035.01_M_release_223976_signed.exe
but wanted to ask before I procced is any problem that my HTC Sensation 4G T-Mobile is Unlocked and I am using it in Europe (Albania) should I use a different RUU or the original one will be Fine...last question
If you're returning it to STOCK then you use the one it came with. However, if you're not sending it back to TMOUS (which I don't think you are) then you could just flash the EU 1.50.401.1 RUU

Hello,
I'm a complete noob.
My sensation 4G has decided to stop working. (HTC start up screen loops) I sent my phone to HTC but they want to take all my money. Phone repair guy says it just needs new software update, but wont do it for me. SO Ive tried flashing ROMs but it seems I dont have the correct ones. Some have CID error, some have MID error. Is this the right thing to do?
I really need to find a ROM that is compatible with my phone. I dont need anything fancy, just one that will let me text people and maybe even make a call. :crying:
I have unlocked using HTC dev.
****UNLOCKED*****
Pyramid PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT- 1.18.0000
eMMC-boot
current image version 3.32.531.14
Radio 10.14.9035.01_M
CID BM___001
MID PG5811000
I dont know if this info helps.
Does anybody have any idea what I can do to get this thing working again?
Thanks

Question...Can you enter in recovery...mean try to press the volume down and the power button at the same time (before remove the battery for 10 seconds) ...and check if you device is S-OFF and have any Recovery installed! If you have all of that then you can install a custom ROM with Micro-SSD card...

You need to either flash boot.img separately of you need to enable smart flash in 4EXT recovery and re-flash your ROM. I recommend formatting all partitions except SD Card in 4EXT recovery before re-flashing. Also, every time you flash a ROM, you will need to flash boot.img separately or enable smart flash again before flashing. Here is the appropriate guide for you: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=25587345#post25587345

malybru, I've read many of your answers to these kind of questions & the key to finding a kernel not flashed problem is " I'm HTC Dev Unlocked and after flashing XYZ custom rom my (Something) is not working"
90% of these problems are because boot.img is not flashed automatically for HTC Dev unlocked devices, because HTC believes that flashing a custom Kernel, which will allow overclocking, will cause hardware problems that they are obligated to fix. Hence, the solution that I gave above. I don't mean to put you down or anything and it's pretty clear that you know way more than I do, but I thought you probably might have missed this & so, I brought it to your attention
Thanks for your reply man!
But i flashed the 3.32 firmware with the revolutionary hboot 1.27.1100.
So i think im not htcdev unlocked, but full unlocked..
And my vibration worked with virtious last day. So today i flashed virtious again but vibrate didnt work anymore
Maybe i try stock RUU to see if vibrate will work again..
My phone is just 2 days old
Edit: and im s-off
And it doesnt vibrate 1 time at boot..

Re flash firmware. If that doesn't work, RUU. Guide in signature.

I said firmware, not ROM. Form here.
Just refladhed 3.32 firmware. All was ok. But still no vibrate..
I've had this a couple of times with my xe.
It first happened when I first bought my xe from eBay.
All I did was gently drop the phone from about half a metre off the ground and it started working again. This method was made the vibration start working for me on both occasions. I dropped it onto a carpeted floor with a rug so damage was unlikely.
I found this solution on other forums so it's not only me who has tried this.
All I will say is I'm 100% serious about this and just be careful. Obviously I'm not responsible if you're a bi heavy handed with you're phone and throw it at the floor - that is not what I'm letting you to do!
When I bought my phone I had the same problem after some time. The vibrate (surplus part of the phone just below the sim card) worked occasionally, but rarely.
I had to send the phone at HTC, they would have repaired the vibrate, everything works fine since.
Thanks everyone for helping me out man.
The thing is i dont want to miss my phone for 3 weeks haha.
I will try to drop my phone softly..

RUU is your only option then.
If it's a software issue, RUU will solve it.
If it's hardware related then you'll need to S On the phone again & send it to HTC.

Thanks ill try your method.
After i s-on again and bootloader is locked, i will run ics ruu. Is that ok?
Just saw this on latest threads. Dunno if this will help as it may be totally different on htc but search for immvibed and libImmVibeJ.so. Then set permissions on those and the folders above, to all. This solved the issue for me in the note and i tried EVERYTHING.

didnt work.. sorry
just installed GB ruu on my sensation, all fine but still not vibrating.
BUT i made it to make it S-ON again and my hboot is 1.17.
But theres no pink text saying "LOCKED" OR "RELOCKED" in my bootloader.
It doesnt show anything in pink.
My bootloader's 1st line is just PYRAMID PVT SHIP S-ON RL.
Is it now locked and ok for warranty?? or is it supposed to say locked or relock???

It's supposed to say locked because you were on an engineering bootloader.
Re-flash RUU. Should do the trick.
i think its not supposed to say locked when on a GB rom.. i saw a vid on youtube where it wasnt sayn locked either.

I think when i flash ICS RUU that it'll say locked.
EDIT: updated to 2.3.4 and now saying locked

If you are in fastboot, then go to bootloader.

[Q] Won't go past HTC boot logo...

Hi everyone
My sister has a HTC Sensation Orange UK branded, running completely stock 1.50.61.1 software, without no modifications to the phone in any way, it is just as if it came out of the box. The other day the phone mysteriously stopped going past the boot logo... It turns on, white screen with green HTC logo, then within 10 seconds it turns off and back on again to the same logo, and continues until the battery dies. It does not get on the OS boot logo. The phone does however go into the bootloader and fastboot.
First step I took was download a 1.35.61.1 Orange UK branded RUU and tried to run that, knowing that it would probably fail as I was trying to go back to an older version, but I did not wanna do anything else first. The RUU for 1.50.61.1 is not available, and I have not been able to find it anywhere... When I run the RUU, I seem to get upto the point where it says "Sending Data..." and then it fails with an "UNKNOWN ERROR".
Next step , I unlocked the bootloader since the RUU is not available and if it is an issue with the OS/ROM, then I need to flash another. I unlocked the phone via HTCDev, and that worked fine. Phone is showing unlocked in the bootloader. Then, when I tried to flash a recovery, it looks as if works fine, but when I go to the recovery option in the bootloader, same issue... Won't load the recovery, and just keeps boot-looping. I tried CWM recovery via Hasoon's toolkit and manually through the fastboot command. It says sending, done OK, but continues to boot-loop.
Here is all the information I feel is necessary:
HTC Sensation
Orange UK Branded
Software Version 1.50.61.1
Unlocked bootloader
PYRAMID PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-1.18.0000
RADIO-10.14.9035.02_2
eMMC-boot
Thank you everyone for all your help in advance!
If its in Warranty period, Try replacing it.
Sounds like a H/W fault to me..
That was my suspicion too... I am not sure if it is under warranty, I guess I can find out.
Is there nothing I can try from here?

Well that was my suggestion... I'm not a genius
May be some one in XDA may know a way out.

[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.
Bricked ..

this same thing happened to me but i have the Sensation not the 4g .. but i'm sure you probably messed up in the firmware update bit .. as i remember that logo flash and restart all the time ..

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 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?

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

[Q] Help Please - HTC Sensation Bricked

Hello,
i flashed cm 10 on my Sensation and after a hour it was still loading so i removed the battery and restarted the phone.
Then it resumed loading for an minute or two and just went black (powerd off).
Now nothing works anymore, no fastboot or recovery, no led light on charger connected.
Computer detects device when i connect it but adb cannot do nothing, it connot find device.
How can i solve this now?

What does the computer detect? fastboot not working either? are you S-Off? try connecting it to charger with battery outside and see what happens.
No bootloader on VolDown+Power press, no indicator LED light when connected on charge with or without battery.
Phone was S-Off before this hepened. PC detects phone on USB connection and Device Manager says "qhsusb_dload" for device.
ADB/fastboot does not detect phone on connection.

What matters is your CID. unless you have SuperCID you need the exact RUU for your device. go to bootloader and via fastboot type fastboot getvar cid. This will give you your CID.
Here is a list of Sensation RUUs:
http://www.androidruu.com/index.php?developer=Pyramid
I suggest using an ICS RUU, as it will allow you to avoid messing with firmware (will flash it by itself).
Good luck.
Started to work with restats maybe you can get in your fast boot by now?

Ok, i will check the CID but i need GB because WiFi and Bt are not working on any higher ROM and problema started after update to ICS

if you are still on S-OFF you can use any ruu.exe which means a GB one too
but you must have supercid
by the way can you boot now to the bootloader?
Yes, it is S-Off still but now after recovery, unrooted.
I can go into bootloader via VolDWN+PWR.

ok then check your cid
if you aren't supercid you can change it with this command
fastboot oem writecid 11111111
then you can use any ruu.exe including GB one
see here for ruu.exe
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1672425
by the way can you post your bootloader details?
unfortunately i don't have a link for GB ROM flashing from recovery

it is better to use the GB ruu.exe just to be sure
My CID was HTC__036 so is that got something to do with bugs i had or is it just preventing you
to flash RUU packs? I do not really understand how it works tottaly. Is it better if i cange it to 1111111 and can it be restored back to stock after?
I got problems with WiFi, BT and FM, thay not working so one of the options are to fully restore the phone by removeing custom recovery, S-OFF, and everything and get it back on factory GB OS so it can be sent on repair.

if you change your cid to supercid(11111111) then you can use any ruu.exe you want
with cid:HTC__036 you can use a specific ruu.exe
and no cid has not to do with bugs
after supercid you can revert it back to the original one if you want
after ruu installation it will remove custom recovery but the S-OFF will remain
Ok, i seen someware how to restore S so only thing now is to find that GB RUU. Can someone point me to the file on that RUU list and
what about radio and suff. Does it need to be same radio version as mine now or?

look at my previous post number 12
there you will find gb ruu
also there you will see how to restore S-ON but be careful with that
follow the steps carefully on how to S-ON
ruu will take care too of radio and anything else.so no worries about it
