Thanks mate really appreciated but could u plz post some links where to download files, and can i do that without rooting the phone, i also dont know what mean s-off.

Sorry, I can nor provide links as I am on my phone. But basically, you need to get s-off by using the juponotbear method. Google it,or check in dev section. After s-off, you need a custom recovery, like CWM. Place the pg58img.zip file on the root of your sd-card, and reboot into boot loader but removing and reinserting the battery, and then hold town power+vol down. It will ask you if you want to install, just confirm. Then remove the pg58img.zip.file.from your SD, and then download the gb firmware for your acid (might take some time to find the right one), and install it like you did with the recovery. Now, if you reboot, you will get a bootloop, because you have a ICS Rom on a gb firmware. Remove the pg58img.zip file from your SD, and download a gb ROM of your choice. Then boot into boot loader, and select recovery. When you have booted into recovery, wipe data, and flash rom from SD card. That should be it

Hi,
The first thing you must do is s-off.
Look in my signature at ☺ A great starting point for all new Sensation owners ☺
There are several guides to s-off.
Then downgrade your firmware or run GB RUU.
All in the sig.
Edit:
Why urgently?
If you rush these things without properly reading,you will end up with a brick.
Take your time.
Read,read,and read some more.

Yes, you would need to get the recovery from an uploaded rom with the same build number as yours. e.g European 1.35.401.1
1. download the file attached. That is for clockwork recovery mod working for the sensation.
Find an RUU in the development thread or OTA update collections with the same build number.
replace recovery.img in the zip you downloaded below with your recovery.img from the official rom. Just extract it from rom.zip and then copy it into the PG58img.zip
2. Copy PG58IMG file into the Root folder of your SD card (The main Folder of your Memory Card) after you have changed the recovery.img in it.
3. Turn off your phone FUlly and reboot into Bootloader/HBOOT screen(See how to get Hboot post above)
4. Press Volume up to Accept when it asks" Do you want to start the update"
5. Press Power Off to Reboot back to android (normal screen with homescreen)
6. Remove PG58IMG from your memory card and YOU should now be back to stock recovery
Thanks mate!
Ill test it out tomorrow, really need some sleep atm.

Seemed to work like a charm, for me anyway. I'm back to original recovery again on my Sensation.
Was very worried when I saw what Mixmaven said about not being able to charge a dead battery due to CWM, on p.54 of Dev section Revolutionary thread.
Thanks ikhzter, for all the guides and help for us noobs.
I'm content with just having a rooted, unbranded, stock rom for now. No more vodafone logos and apps is like an early Christmas pressie in itself for me

If you download the 1.35.401.1 RUU exe, and get to the rom.zip from in that, there is a recovery_signed.img within that rom.zip.
and how would I do that? (looks like i'm a noob on that area)
I'm also interested to know how to do...
U can open the exe with winzip or winrar...
The attached file has had the Clockwork recovery replaced with the standard recovery from RUU_Pyramid_HTC_Europe_1.35.401.1....
I just put it on my sdcard, powered the phone off, powered on whilst pressing VOL DOWN. It found it and asked if I wanted to start the update.
I did this, and now have the stock recovery.
Will it do a whipe?
Just whant back s-on so i can update original ota 2.3.4 but dont whant to do a wipe

Official Upgrade to stock 2.3.4 Rom (Unrooted)

This Rom is for the rooted user, who wish to enjoy the new T-Mobile 2.3.4 update without losing their root privilege.

How to Flash GB Radio to fix any GPS issue
1. Download the latest GB radio for the HTC Glacier (12.62.60.27_26.13.04.19).
2. Make sure the filename is PD15IMG.zip exactly or it will not work and copy it to the root of the SD Card.
3. Now reboot into bootloader
4. The bootloader will scan for the radio update. Once it finds the update, select Yes.
5. Allow the bootloader to finish flashing the updated radio, and reboot the device.
Some of the users reported bugs in the GPS, so if you are having this issue try the rooted 2.3.3 Rom. It's bug free. You can download it here.
This is a preview of the official Rom......Have a look at it......
thanks for this man, it always took me a while to find the right files
Good work.. Thanks..this is the real deal.. the other one (the first posted official update) was missing the system widgets. I don't think everyone noticed it.

You can't rename and boot it in your bootloader like the official update.
This rom is designed to flash only through recovery.
The stock rom is modified, rooted & busybox is also added.
So try to flash through recovery only.......don't try to do the bootloader method.
In terms of upgrading using the unrooted method and the official 2.3.4 rom (1st method), will all apps and settings be preserved? Or will it be a fresh install?

The first method is a fresh installation, just same as that you do in a T-mobile store.
The Rom itself is copied from the T-Mobile Sd Card.
So, you will lose all the data in your phone memory, the sd card will be unaffected.

So if you want to enjoy root privilege, you should downgrade from 2.3.4 to stock 2.2.1 and then do a permroot.
Just follow this steps for an error free downgrade.
1. Download the stock 2.2.1 rom here.
2. Rename it to PD15IMG.zip
2. Place it on the root of your sd card.
3. Remove the battery and Switch On your phone while holding the Power button & the down volume button.
4. The hboot menu will update your phone (do according to the hboot instructions).
The original bootloader is 0.86.0000
Now reboot & enjoy your update......This is the original T-mobile 2.2.1 version....so no worries.....
After that you need to root your device and install ClockworkMod Recovery. Follow this post.
When you are permrooted, you can install rooted 2.3.4 Rom using Recovery.
Cool Ty so the rooted version is same as the one from t-mobile update just rooted

I just rooted my phone Stock 2.3.4 (GB) by downgrading using the Permanent S-OFF (gfree). I loaded the Stock Rooted posted here, everything works but the GPS. The GPS icon is not showing eventhough I have it clicked on. When using navigation it just said "Searching for GPS" and will not lock to any GPS signal. Anyone having the same issue?
I tried a different ROM Virtous Unity and the GPS is working fine, then switched back to Rooted Stock 2.3.4 same issue.
The GPS issue....
Some of the users reported bugs in the rooted stock Rom......
So if you are experiencing this problem try reflashing. If this didn't work out well for you, Try this alternative.
Download the rooted 2.3.3 Rom. It's bug free. You can download it here.
If you are experiencing any bugs in the listed Roms, please report.....

My virtuous inquisition AOSP Rom is far from stable am i doing something wrong

I came from cm7.1 i flashed the rom the same as i always flashed any other rom. Im not an expert or anything but im not a newb i have done this before. But what i didnt do was a suoerwhipe should i have done that? I followed how you are supposed to install it i even watched tutorial on youtube to make sure i did it right and i did.
What the rom keeps doing is rebooting my phonr and i keep getting stuck on the htc logo. It will go to thr htc logo then reboot thrn go back to the logog then reboot again it does that over and over. And even when i tried to flash my cm7 clockworkmod backup it didnt work it still did it that had me extremely nervous that i was screwed. To fix it i had to refkash the firmware and then fkash the rom again clear the cache and everything all over again.
I thought it was over but then it did it again i and i jusr went back to cm7. I really want to use this rom anybody know why it is doing this? And how i can fix this?
Sent from my Sensation using XDA App
Firstly, you should always superwipe when going to a different ROM (that is, a ROM from a different family).
Secondly, read the first couple of posts in the Inquisition thread and make sure you are using the right firmware.
I am having the same doubt whether you have upgraded the firmware. If you are using ICS version of virtuous inquisition you must upgrade the firmware with v3.24 (Revolutionary) which has the HBOOT 1.27 . Please go through the following thread.

I would suggest you may have failed to delete the firmware .img file from the sd card before you tried to boot the ROM?
Somethings wrong bc mine is 98% stable

When you say firmware are you talking upgrading to 3.24? Because i didnt do that. I thought the only firmware you needed was the one included with the Rom that they tell you to install first. And boomboomer is right i also didnt delete the firmware .img.
But which one of these is causing the problem? Me not deleting the firmware.img off the root of the sd card. Or me not updating my htc firmware to 3.24?
I didnt know you had to update the firmware to 3.24 the first time a flashed this rom like 2 weeks ago i didnt do that and it seemed to work fine i just followed this youtube tutorial
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sF2OWf0D9XQ
In it it says nothing about updating to 3.24.

3.24 is not "required" by the VI 3.0 rom, but most users that use it experience little to no problems, compared to the previous firmware. Bottom line, it's more stable using 3.24.
Your right i didnt. you think thats whats causing it?

You aren't reading the help you're bring offered. Delete the img file to stop the boot loop, if you want then update to 3.24 for better compatibility with ROM 3.0.0.

Yes , you can . After flashing the ROM, do not reboot. Just power off. Then remove the sdcard . Put the the firmware file on the root of your sdcard using a pc. Insert the sdcard in phone. Boot into bootloader. Then follow on screen instruction. Hope you knowhow to boot into bootloader.
By the way, why not doing things in traditional way ??? I mean first flash firmware then you flash ROM.
I already flashed the rom and don't have an adapter to plug my sd card into my PC. Can I just download it from my phone and move it to the root of my SD then boot into bootloader?
And I flashed the rom first because i was told updating to 3.24 wasn't required. Plus I was kind of confused as to which 3.24 firmware to download and i just wanted the rom to bad but I have the right firmware now.

[Q] Reverting back to GB!

Guys I am currently using CM10 kangs, and now i want to go back to GB as i think cm7 is much smoother than cm9/cm10 builds(scrolling,smoothness,etc).
The problem is i cannot find the proper firmware to revert back to GB.
I need a complete firmware for GB base.
I have tried the firmware 1.17 from the following thread

But i m stuck on HTC logo.
can anyone provide me a proper link to the required firmware?

yes i wiped[4ext Superwipe]! But dont know why is it stuck on bootloader!
I flashed the GB radio too to check if there was some problem.
I think firmware upgrade from GB to ICS was around 30+MB but now those firmwares are of size around 10MB.
DOes that mean they dont have all the files necessary for downgrade? Not sure, but just using my commonsense lol.

No don't use superwipe script especially if you are flashing AOSP roms.. It's not compatible.. Do wipe from 4EXT itself as I've mentioned earlier and reflash the rom that will solve your problem
Also the 1.17 firmware has enough components which support gb roms.. Nothing is missing

reverting back to GB, I always put the right PG58IMG.zip on my SD card and then reboot into bootloader.
as soon as it is installed, then, I remove the SD card from my Sensation, delete the file from the SD [mounted on my PC], and then restart the phone in recovery to flash my GB CWM backup.
if you want, you can download the PG58IMG.zip I use to revert back to GB. it's 14.618.502 byte weight.

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.
