rooted Sensation will not boot - HTC Sensation

Hello you intelligent people.
I have rooted my HTC Sensation and installed Touch clockwork recovery thanks to tool from this site. But with any of the custom roms same result. I am able to install the rom and reboot and even get the fancy costum bootscreen with her/she have add to their rom, but the phone is stuck.
The phone has the latest firmware, radio and I have even tried to partion the SD card in clockwork with both 128MB, 256, 512 and 1024 MB. But nothing changes and I still don't get past the bootscreen.
What can be wrong? Have I destroyed the phone or what could be wrong?

Hi,
When you say your rooted, are you S-OFF as well? And it is really not necassary to partition your sd card.

Oh and also what ROM are you trying to get working?

It could be either that you are not s-off'ed, or you are running a GB firmware for a ICS ROM

But there problem is that I can't make my pc see the phone after having tried to install the custom's rom, so I can't even re-charge the phone. So how I make the phone re-charge again?

Pull out the battery, wait, put it back in and then charge... And it probably not booting cuz ur phone aint s-off, so u need to flash boot.img manually (fasboot flash boot boot.img) but u need htc-dev unlock for that, root aint enough...

Well I first rooted yesterday, i got S-off, then got clockwork mod recovery and then perma rooted using the zip file and gained access to super user etc.
Then I decided today that I want ics without sense, so i go to virtous or w/e his name is and put his download in my sd card wiped the cache and data etc and didn't back up, so installed his rom and rebooted my phone and it kept boot looping ...
and now i'm stuck with cm 7.1 which I don't like
I just want official 2.3.4 with sense back peacefully that'd be great
Did you install the required firmware?

Gotta have the correct hboot before flashing ics roms and supercid. To go back to stock find the sensation RUU.

You didn't mention if you SuperCID your phone or not. That is another required step .
Reply
I don't think there's a fully working 2.3.4 with htc sense rom online. You might have to use another rom.
if you want official rom go here
but if you want ics rom, first of all you have to flash correct firmware for the rom and only then flash rom.
All required info is in each rom thread.
I am having the same problem as OP but I have a back up. When installing Virtous Inquisition I get a boot loop and I have SuperCID.

He told you in his post.
He was running the wrong firmware version - most of the ICS ROMs require the newest firmware versions. Which requires SuperCID.
If you don't have the correct firmware version installed -> Bootloop.
HTC Sensation Recovery Mode
I am trying to go in to Recovery Mode pressing Volume down + Power Button simultaneously and nothing happens.. The phone it's starting normally !
In my experience you have to keep hold of the volume down button and then press the power button for a few seconds, while you keep on holding volume down. That always works for me...
ThanksI fixed that thanks god!!! But now another problem starts.. i turn on the phone and restarts over and over after the green sign. I can't access recovery also. I tried to install a recovery putting this file: PG58IMG in to Memory card and then install but no success it does the same I can't access recovery at all. When i try to access it my phone restarts the same when i try to turn it on. If someone one know what to do please tell me...thank you
If you can't access the hboot screen via vol down+power, check that you don't have fast boot enabled. Settings -> power, uncheck fast boot if it is checked. That should help you get to hboot. You can also take your battery out to make the phone fully reboot. And when you don't need the PG58IMG file anymore, remove it from the sd card.
Ok first off...if you have s-off and your rooted.....you also need to flash the proper firmware.
the easiest way to do this is by following this thread verbatim
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1459767
mentioned in this great thread is the following and I quote
"I really want to use the latest ICS! How do I go about doing this?
I get this PM'd to me a lot. The best way I have seen to do it is as shown (Thanks to PaulGiz)
1. Do some reading as this is a bit different and harder than a normal ROM flash.
2. Best way is to place Firmware PG58IMG.zip, ROM and Superwipe script on the root of your SD Card.
3. Shut down phone and remove SD card.
4. Boot phone to Bootloader (Power+Vol down).
5. Move selection to Recovery, but don't select yet.
6. Insert SD, then select Recovery.
7. Flash Superwipe (ARHD Superwipe will reboot when done, others may not) & then Flash ROM.
8. Power down, then boot to Bootloader. Select Fastboot. Say yes to upgrade.
9. Watch the flash. It will flash 3 or 4 things, then reboot to bootloader. Don't panic when screen goes dark. Bootloader will come back and it will finish flashing.
10. Now select reboot.
11. Wait (up to 10 minutes) for ROM to boot up.
12. Set up your phone and enjoy ICS!!!"
read the whole post all info is there...it's really easy.
Thanks to Kohr-Ah i'm enjoying ICS "no-sense"...and just loving my phone..
Hope this helps.

[Q] I have deleted custom and stock ROM stuck in recovery and stuck at boot screen

So.. The other day I rooted my htc sensation perfectly, and gained super user access, S-off and all that stuff to root.
So I flashed a MIUI rom onto the phone which worked perfectly.
Today I tried to flash the Virtuos Quattro ROM onto my phone and it didn't work. So I cleared the cache, user data, and all that, but every time I tried to flash the rom it came up with an error.
(At this point when I turned the phone on , it when in a boot loop..l unless I went into recovery mode.) so I tried to restore the MiUI ROM and it wouldn't work anymore..
So I formatted the system and still no luck. Formatted the SD card and no luck.
However, after doing all of that, I lost the MIUi ROM, have no way of getting to a home screen, and I don't know how to get back either to my stock rom or to the MIUI rom.
It still says I'm S-off.. But I have no clue how to get back to either my stock rom ( because I have no idea where to find it) which is what I want to do again
Have I deleted the stock rom?
Is there a way to get back to the stock rom in this case? Or what should I do?!?
In desperate need of help guys!!
Cheers
Nothing to worry.
Virtuous rom, you need to flash latest firmware in order for this rom to work. Read rom guide carefully, there is a guide how to flash virtuous rom in development section if I remember correctly.

would you be able to link me to the instructions on how to do that ?
you can take your sd card out and plug it in your computer and put the PG58IMG.zip in the root of the sd card and virtuous quattro in any folder
after that get the sd card in the device go to bootloader flash the new firmware (keep in mind tho that to flash the new firmware you have to be superCID) then go to recovery wipe and flash virtuous quattro and youre all set
heres the thread were you can find the new firmware:

re download the rom.. sounds like a bad download... if you wanna run ics... download new firmware name it whatever it's supposed to be name... put it on the base of the sdcard... sdcard/ ok now have your downloaded rom and the firmware on the sdcard. not a folder just in the base directory... ok in recovery wipe everything first... data cache system boot... everything except sdcard... then flash/install the rom.... then reboot to bootloader in the power options in ext4 recovery , the bootloader will read the firmware file... should be named pd58img or something like that (dont quote the file name i could be wrong) anyways the bootloader will pick it up and ask you if you wanna update, hit volume up for yes... after it's done hit the power button again to reboot and all should be welll with ics... oh and then hit the thanks button for me..... you really just need to open to browser windows... one where you download the firmware read how they say to install one for the rom read how they say install and then look at my post... with all the info here i think u can figure it out... sorry if i aint making sense i just wored 14 hours... gotta sleep now... good luck

{HELP} device is keep booting into recovey -- SOLVED --

To the Guru of this forum. After my last rom flashing my device is keeping booting into recovery :crying:. Is it briked ? If so my only hope is the unbricking project ? Thanks in advance.
What recovery are you running?
Can you use the power menu within recovery to boot into bootloader?
Also, please provide as much pertinent info as possible, ie: rom you flashed, firmware, s-off or s-on, locked or unlocked. With your description it's basically like saying, "my car makes a noise all the time. what is causing it?".
Its not bricked.If u can enter recovery
Sent from my HTC sensation
Sorry you are right:
What recovery are you running? 4Ext
Can you use the power menu within recovery to boot into bootloader? yes
The device is HTC unlocked with S-On.
Rom JBMIUI v4.1 2.8.31 R2.
HBOOT 1.27.0000
firmware 3.33.401.6
I've format everything but SD. Restored the most recent back up done today before flashing. Once it reboots HTC logo comes up once, black screen, HTC logo, 4Ext is coming up saying that smartflash it is set to update the boot partition on next system start asking if this should be removed.
I've downloaded and installed again PG58IMG *different files using bootloader
I've founded a 3.33.401.6-Unsecured-Boot.img,+Root+Busybox zip file that can be installed via recovery but it did not help.
At this point I need a bit of help to look into the right direction and I'm not sure that Unbrick_Pyramid is the right way.
Thanks again.
Try turning off smartflash and flash a 3.33 stock rom to see if it will boot.
What was your last working setup, and what were you trying to install?

Hi. Manage to flash a stock 3.33.
It stopped to reboot straight into recovery.
Sits now on HTC logo now for about 10 mins. I plan to let him run for 1 hr and see what happens.
Was thinking to install CWM on the basis that could be a 4ext recovery issue, toughs?

If you can install clockworkmod that may help.
Tge device isnt getting the message that it has already booted into recovery once. So something may be jacked up with 4ext.
Clockwork may bypass all that when it doesnt know what to do with that signal to run smartflash.
Worst case scenario...put a full pm58img containing a rom and recovery on the sf card and flash that through bootloader.
You should still be able to get to bootloader as the device looks for that option first.

And did that help? Are you able to get into recovery without errors now? If so you should be able to flash a fresh version of any ROM.
Try that first. Get any ROM. Flash it. See if it boots.
If you have successfully replaced 4EXT I will bet a fresh flash of a ROM will now boot.
Also worth a shot is replacing or upgrading the firmware, as that could be what's sending the phone into recovery on each boot (though this is less likely that 4EXT just being broken)
Flash a firmware PM58IMG like 3.32 or 3.33 and see if that helps.
But for starters, put a fresh ROM on the SD card and flash it with CWM. (BE SURE IT'S A ROM THAT DOESN'T REQUIRE 4EXT!!)
Once you've got it all fixed you can switch back to 4EXT. I have a feeling it was just the copy you were running that got botched. The software itself is solid and stable. A new copy shoudl work fine now.
CWM v5.0.2.0 was installed fine.
3.33 firmware installed once again.
Using this I've installed ROM that I already did in the past w/o luck, they all sit on the HTC logo. Is like the initial boot sequence is broken. Is boot.img part of the firmware or ROM ?
Trying to download some additional ones.
Thanks,

The more details you give, the better the answers will be. Don't consider any detail too small.
What do you mean you installed ROM's that you had done in the past? Do you mean you are trying to restore a backup made with 4EXT?
That won't work. You need to flash a fresh version of the ROM after wiping.
Also, CWM won't install some ROM's that you may have used in the past. What ROM are you trying to install?
The HTC logo that first pops up when you hit the power button is part of the firmware.
Make sure you do a full wipe of everything but the SD card from within CWM. Get whatever's causing the problem off that way. Then flash a fresh install of a ROM from scratch.
Hi.
I did not use any backup only fresh ROMs: ARHD, Elegantia, but also stock ROMs I could find.
I've tried also some PG58IMG with ROM included.

- apply stock ROM founded in this list http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1074559

I guess that HTC RUU had some superpower and erase and installed whatever file(s) were corrupted.

[Help] HBoot and ClockWordMod recovery

Hi everyone,
I am a bit confused concerning the Hboot version and CWM recovery. Here is the situation :
I put a custom ROM long time ago (HTC operator ROM for the HTC official ROM). A few days ago, HTC deploy an update (OTA). My phone downloaded it and i tried to install it. However, CWM told me "can't find the XXX.zip" etc on the SD Card. So i tried "Install from zip" in CWM and it did it good.
However, since this, I lost my wifi tether so I thought I lost root and so on. Then, I flashed again with that : RUU-Pyramid-ICS-hTC-Europe-3.33.401.53-Radio-11.76A.3504.00U-11.24A.3504.31-M-release-280871-signed.exe (like the first time but the last version).
To root again, etc., i did that :
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
However, CWM recovery never wanted to start from the bootloader menu (i have only the CWM loading screen and then, my phone reboot normally).
I tried then to downgrade my HBoot to 1.17.2008 and from that, I can now access the CWM recovery. However, with that Hboot, my phone is stucked on the loading HTC screen (white screen and HTC green logo). When I put the HBoot back to 1.27.1100, I can't access CWM but i can start my phone.
What is the problem and how could I make that phone work good?
NB : I'm S-OFF, etc..
Thank you everyone ! :laugh:

Format all partitions (except sd card)

Hi malybru,
Thank you for your answer. As a matter of fact, I'm back with hboot 1.27. I can also tell you that I've install 4 EXT yesterday and it runs very well (backup, etc.) even if I can't with CWM now, so it is a good point.
Concerning formating all partitions, can you tell me what partitions will be format precisely ? Finally, I'd like to install that OpenSentation2 which looks good (that thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2002883). The trouble is that I was wondering the following questions :
1. The Radio will be flashed ? I dont wan't to lose that but I dont know the relation flashing a ROM or erasing partition and the Radio ROM.
2. Can I flash a Rom like that or should I take care of the firmware, the radio, or anything else before all?
3. What do you mean by saying "I think that when you ran the RUU,you lost your recovery" ?
Thank you in advance for advices
Have a nice day !

1) and 2) :if you have 3.32fw or 3.33fw you are fine
3)by using an RUU returns your device into completely stock situation as you bought it
that means that you have also stock recovery.that's why you lost your first recovery(CWM recovery)
first format all partitions(except sdcard) from recovery
then follow the installation steps from rom thread

I did it with another HTC Sensation and it worked well, that's why I don't understand. On top of that, the CWM recovery works when i put a 1.17 hboot. I'm confused.
Than you for all that information . Would it be possible with 4EXT (after deleting all partitions (except sd card) and flashing a ICS rom) to come back to what I have now with a 4 EXT backup? I mean, that backup is a 4.0 android, a htc sense rom, and so on. There's no compatibility problem to put a very different backup ?
Thank you

I mean, that backup is a 4.0 android, a htc sense rom, and so on. There's no compatibility problem to put a very different backup ?
Thank you

You can restore any nandroid backup you have done with 4ext even when you are running another rom
It is just only overwrite it

[Help] [Q] No ROM boots! Phone always gets stuck on boot animation of custom ROMs

I Flashed derefas built Sense 4.0a Bulid#7 lite last night, it didn't boot and got stuck at beat audio screen. Tried nearly ten times, flashed two versions of TWRP and even latest CWM6. Then for a cross check booted CM10, even that gets stuck at cynogenmod boot animation.
Tried "fastboot flash boot boot.img" even, for flashing the kernel separately which i came to know via XDA forums, even then no use.
Bootloader Unlocked, S-ON.
SD Card: 8GB Class 4, even changed SD Cards and SD-Ext types ext2,3,4.
Not overclocked even once.
Is the phone's final destination is to some garbage after this(hard-bricked) or what?

Have you tried doing a FACTORY RESET. If not, no ROM will ever boot on your phone. Either do this from your recovery or HBOOT.

Re: [Help] [Q] No ROM boots! Phone stuck on boot animation of custom rom.
My explorer can't run any oc kernel, don't know why. while my friend explorer supports .is it problem of hardware??
I always ended up burning my nand.build #7 also contain oc kernel I think.
after waiting for 15 min I flashed cm9, I came to know that I burnt my nand as I got fc's

I went on to Flash RUU and got stuck at htc logo with four warning symbols /!\, hope thats the end of my phone.
Edit: As far as helps, I dont think no one(including devs) would coming to help us! We're totally !!!!
same problem
i have same problem. i tried flash RUU but now, my phone's screen is black with 4 triangles in corner.
Here is a simple solution
If u can go to recovery
Wipe everything ( by mounting system , data ,cache etc )
Wipe dalvik cache
Then reboot into recovery again
And again wipe everything
( this will clear ur phone problems and will clean the phone )
Now I recommend to flash cm9.1
And that's it u got ur working phone again

ok guys you need to unlock bootloaders again i guess because flashing RUU locks the bootloaders....flash a new recovery of your choice CWM/TWRP Wipe system,boot,dalvik cache,cache and last factory rest and flash a rom like CM9/MiniCM9/CM10/CM10.1 and reboot and make sure your ext2/3/4 partition in sd card is properly formatted before you flash a new rom and after flashing wait for 10 min atleast

If you locked the bootloader unlock it, flash custom recovery like TWRP like you did initially. Boot to recovery, flash any rom, choose something stable I suggest flash cm9 build 11 then flash gapps, but remember before flashing rom wipe dalvik cache, factory reset, wipe system, reboot phone if still doesn't boots and you get something weird flash another ruu, choose the right ruu for your country, lock bootloader flash ruu repeat from start if everything works hit thanks keep pressing it lol.
If it doesn't make a video to explain what is happening, but don't worry don't loose hope
