Hi there xda.
Had my sensation For about 5 days now, coming from a desire (rooted/cmr2 pat table/s-off).
I thought I had it all worked out, flashed the sensation with hypersensation, all good; flashed a new splash screen with android flasher, all good.......
Then I followed this thread
[RADIO][24 Nov 2011] HTC Sensation Radios [PG58IMG.zip]
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
to flash a new radio. The md5s matched, the radio was acknowledged in the bootloader and the update finshed all complete but now im stuck at the splash screen?
So I tried a newer radio with the radio.img and android flasher, still stuck at splashscreen..............gutted!
I can still get into bootloader/fastboot and recovery and the info on my bootloader screen states:
Revolutionary
PYRAMID PVT SHIP S-OFF RL
HBOOT-1.17.1111
RADIO-11.15.3504.16_M
eMMC-boot
What have I done wrong?
Anyones help would be greatly appreciated.
******MASSIVE EDIT******
Just reinstalled the hypersensation rom from scratch and it boots now?
Just so that I havent wasted a new thread and for future reference, does the rom need to be reinstalled after a radio flash on the sensation? I certainly havent come across any posts stating so. Like I said, the only android phone experiance Im bringing to the sensation with me is from the desire, and radios on that thing were a snitch.
So.... sorry to the forum moderator, please feel free to delete this.
No this is a common problem.. when you reinstalled the Rom you probly wiped cache and dalvik. That is all you needed to do.

Thanks for the advice.
Just a note, after I'd reflashed the rom, the phone would reboot of its own accord every 10 mins or so.
So I restored the modded stock rom image I took from straight after revo, same problem even after restore?
Went and did an RUU update with the official euro HTC rom, all ok, re did revolution and root, flashed back to hypersensation, all now ok again, no more reboots?
I think I may need to read up some more about the radio procedure with the sensation, seems to be not so straight forward.
But if anyone else suffers from the same issue, at least this answers out there.

Hi there,
I just read this post as I have the same problem like Odinforce -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=21437577&postcount=45635
I checked every step but it won't boot, just remains at the white "HTC quietly brilliant" screen. Furhter I'm unable to reply to this topic because of being too new to the forum.
Could someone give some more advice?
Thank you very much in advance.

Hi,
Glad to hear it.
Don't forget to flash the radio, unless you want your phone to be empty in 8 hours after charging.

The radio is included in mike's firmware correct? I tried to flash the recommended radio, because the boot loader shows a different one. However, i noticed that the the rom software shows that the correct radio was installed already with the firmware update.

Ok but I assume I have to have RADIO S-OFF, don't I? I'm note 100% sure which radio version I had before updating the firmware but it seems to be an old one.
I had same issue as OP... Ran super wipe script before flashing ... It hanged on HTC logo, did super wipe again and it suck on HTC logo again...
Third time i did wipe/factory reset and format all partitions in 4ext recovery and it worked...
There is something wrong with superwipe script, it doesn't work for all users...

Hi,
If you are s-off,then you are radio s-off as well.
Check your radio version here:
Settings>about phone>software information>more>baseband version
You have the new firmware ,so it should be:
11.65.3504.00U_11.19.3504.29_2
OK got it. S-OFF -> radio S-OFF as well.
Settings>about phone>software information>more>baseband version shows exactly the version 11.65.3504.00U_11.19.3504.29_2, this seems to be OK then.
But as chemmastr wrote the bootloader says it's RADIO-11.19.3504.29_2, what's wrong there?

Ok, I'm an idiot ... Sorry for the last question. I just recognized by myself that the radio version is part of the basebrand version.

Yes, and this is an important distinction - the radio is included in the firmware, but is not included in the rom.
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

Radio 11.21.3504.13.2

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).

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.

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 ?

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?

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.
First: Thanks to this great forum of developers and users, I have learned a lot in a short period of time. The HTC One S is my first Android handset, and I love it. All the wonderful tutorials and threads you guys created made learning the basics of rooting/flashing easy.
This is my second HTC One S handset, the previous one died from hardware failure. The previous handset had HBoot 1.06, and so I was able to flash the TWRP recovery and use the Trickdroid 9.1.0 flawlessly. The problem comes with this new handset, and I am not sure exactly what it is to troubleshoot. The current HBoot on the phone is 1.14 (which means I can't flash radios, etc.). After unlocking the bootloader, I flashed the latest TWRP recovery (2.4.1.0). After factory resetting the phone and installing the Trickdroid 9.1.0, the phone won't boot. If I hold the power for 5-10 seconds, the keys flash, that's it. I am able to get into the bootloader using the power + volume down method, and then I have to recover my phone back to factory settings using the RUU avaliable online. I have tried redoing this process 2-3 times now, and everytime I flash the JB rom, the phone won't boot. I am not sure if having a HBoot 1.14 prevents me from upgrading from ICS --> JB, recovery, or anything else. As I said, my knowledge of Android is very limited as I am a new user. I really would like to use the JB rom that is cleaned and optimized. If anyone has any suggestions on what I can do, I would greatly appreciate it. Right now, I just did the perm root to be able to get rid of some of the bloat (T-Mobile comes with so much garbage!). Thank you so much, once again, and any troubleshooting help will be returned with big kiss! :angel:

That seemed to be the problem this whole time! Argh! Thanks! In the previous phone, I always flashed it after rebooting via FlashGUI. I guess the only looming problem now is that the Wifi doesn't work on this Trickdroid ROM for my HBoot (1.14). Blah.

Yes, that is right. I think any HBoot higher than 1.09 (I am 1.14) will not be able to flash WiFi partitions. Any way we can make WiFi work on JB? Would upgrading the HBoot to 2.x fix this Wifi problem? I still don't know why it doesn't work though and not having Wifi is kind of a big deal.
I read that what the s-off does is basically buy you time so you dont have to flash the boot.img on your pc. The Maximus HD rom says you must have your s-off, but how about if I have my s-on, but flash the boot.img, will it be the same thing?

No, the reason you need S-OFF for MaximusHD is because that ROM requires a leaked unsigned firmware, which you can only flash if you're S-OFF.

Absolutely right.
And how to remove the red warning text you can find here.
Keep in mind that once you're s-off and want to return to s-on (warranty, whatever...) you'll need to reflash any stock bootloader. Else you'll definitely brick your phone. Best thing is to run any RUU before you set s-on flag on your phone then. It'll automatically restore the stock bootloader that comes with it.
S-off to install Maximus then S-on for final step. It's Ok.
I must do S-on because I get boot loops. Flashed Temporary radio 1.13 because it restarted auto.

Try S-off first. Do it right way.
Then if you can't do anything to get it running or get boot loops, you should try S-on.
I feel it's perfect after 2 day and nothing worry about that.. Flash Temporary-Radio-Installer-V4 if your phone auto restart.

I highly suggest AGAINST going S-ON with Maximus.
If you S-ON, you cannot flash an RUU to lower your hboot back down to hboot 2.15. This means you will be unable to revert back to an older rom or to use the current CM roms.
S-ON while on HBOOT 2.16 is a dead-end and you're forcing yourself to be on either Maximus or another rom that is compatible with 2.16 like Magio. Until someone figures out how to S-OFF while on hboot 2.16, you're stuck with it.
If you're S-OFF, installed Maximus, and you're experiencing bootloop problems and radio problems. Please look into the rcdata partition fix that me and many other HTC One S users were experiencing. Don't S-ON until you give this a try.

you're right but I don't see any problem when I try the rcdata fix.
b) Type "mount" to see a list of mounts. I saw that the data block (p35) was being mounted again in /sdcard, which should be (p36). Checking /etc/fstab shows that the /sdcard was commented out!
I can do S-Off with hboot 2.16.

I am very new to Android, having been converted from iOS. I had extensive experience with jailbreaking and all that.. flashing Windows Mobile with my HTC TyTn as well.
After having my One for almost 3 months I decided to root it and explore other ROMs. Rooting wasn't an issue and I flashed MaxiumusHD 14 which was replaced within 2 weeks with version 20. Everything went well and I've got battery life that certainly exceeds, by a long shot, versus stock battery consumption rate. (Juice Defender and Profile Scheduler definitely help there too). Original stock ROM consumed a lot of power with the HTCCheckIn service. Noticed that here in Brazil I believe my battery life is worse than when I purchased the phone in Canada, I believe it's due to poor service coverage areas (weak data signals, in particular).
As I learn more, I realize that I don't believe that any of the steps I performed to root and install Clockwork involved making S-OFF active. My bootloader shows S-ON. ROM works fine and I didn't get any errors in flashing. How is that possible?
Am I missing something obvious here?
Should I do moonshine S-OFF and flash again?
I've frozen the updater using Titanium Backup (purchased that, it's great) so that I don't keep getting pestered to update to Maximus 21. I just flashed 20! (and I see no issues and nothing in the change log seems to be a huge selling point).
Thanks for the assistance with this newbie.

I've frozen the updater using Titanium Backup (purchased that, it's great) so that I don't keep getting pestered to update to Maximus 21. I just flashed 20! (and I see no issues and nothing in the change log seems to be a huge selling point).
Thanks for the assistance with this newbie.

I would post this question again in the HTC One section, this is the HTC One S section. They would most likely be able to help you.
