Can anybody tell me how to Root my HTC Sensation 4G and install new/updated ROM?
Also I need to know from where I can get a new ROM.
Thanks!
What android version are you on?

Pop the battery wait s few secs the put it back in.
Then start the phone pressing power and volume down at the same time, that'll get you to the bootloader.
Let us know what is says:
S-ON or S-OFF ?
HBOOT x.xx.xxxx ?
This is what I used for my sensation 4g:

To get the correct guide you must first know you're h boot version. To find that information you pull battery put battery back in and press power and volume down at the same time. Information will then pop up. Post your results of that information and then we can guide you to the correct guide for your boot version. But if you don't do it we can't tell which guide is best for you. You need to know your h boot version first. Please post results . I hope this helped explain things a bit better. Best wishes .

And ever since then my phone would just go to the clockworkmod recov screen and do nothing else!! im using the bell sensation 4g unlocked version and i dont know know to do!! please help!
When you go into bootloader. Does it say you're s-off? Pull the battery out and put it back in. Push vol down+power button to get to bootloader.

To use ICS you either need to flash an RUU or update the firmware if you want to use the ARHD ROM that you linked to.
Assuming you've done SuperCID then just move on to the step that says 'Upgrading the firmware' and follow until you get to the part that says 'Flashing the ROM'.

2)this (the link)
3)after that do this one (the link)
4)etc......
Plz really need help donno what to do...sensation just can't b used
Fortunately, this is a Development forum and not a let's-spoon-feed everyone-who-asks-a-question forum. You have to learn because if you don't, you'll ruin your phone just like now. There is no "1 click ROM flashing". Not many people have time to answer everyone's individual questions. But thankfully I do. I am making this quick and simple. If you don't know something, Google is your friend.
1)You know how to boot into HBOOT, or the bootloader? Do just that.
2) Connect your phone to your computer. You must have all the ADB and SDK drivers installed.
3)Navigate to "Fastboot" using your phones Volume UP and DOWN keys until you reach fastboot. Select using the power button.
4) Go into cmd in Windows.
5)Type the following:
cd C:\Program Files\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools
6)Type the following:
adb getvar cid
7) Remember what the previous command just told you. It could be HTC_001 for example.
8)Thanks to this dev, go to this thread. Find this in the first post:
Firmware from 3.32.401.x & 3.32.401.10x RUU
9)See if your CID is listed. If it is not, DO NOT TRY FLASHING THIS. If it is, download the file and flash in HBOOT using the PG58IMG.zip method. Make sure it isn't called PG58IMG.zip.zip.
10) If it isn't listed, use STEP 4 in this post, then flash it.
RE-POST THIS!!! Save devs time to building ROMs and save hassle.
And also thank me for spending a whole 30mins on this guide. Thankyou.
i ROOTED a sensation before, and I recently got a new one. I don't know why but it won't let me root for some reason. Would anyone be interested in connected with me via gtalk/team viewer and helping a fellow user out?

I have "READ" I don't need comments like that.. if you can help not, if someone can please ill even give a little donation ;]

Details about the device please?
Yes details are required, what is your hboot? Are you running ice cream sandwich or gingebread?

Newer devices have a different rooting method I'm on my mobile so I can't give a link but look thru development thread you will find it

Here's a guide to s-0ff and rooting. I really hope this helps! Its for the HTC sensation. It also shows how to super cid, if your interested. Read carefully
Some h boot versions require different methods I don't know what boot version you are but you can look over guide to get a general idea. Really must know the h boot before you can follow a certain set of instructions because the instructions are different for different versions. Without knowing that information you really can't follow guide.

Hi Guys!
Im newbie on XDA and on android phones this its my fist post.
I just want update my actual rom to the last.
I want to know if i just need flash the device with the update Rom or I have to Install other programs to do that.
my Htc sensation 4G with this specification: ----------------------------
Android 4.0.3
Htc Sense 3.6
With Android Revolution H.D 6.5.4 XE by mike1986
Kernel 3.0.16-v1.30.2
baseband : 11.69.3504.00p
Build: 3.32.401.105
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
thanks!
If you're S off you download the Rom to the root of your sd card. I'm assuming you do have 4ext recovery installed already. Also assuming you have correct firmwares .3.32 or 3.33 installed already . You boot into recovery, wipe cash, wipe dalvik cash, wipe data factory reset, stay in recovery , choose install zip from sd card, scroll down find zip. After installation go to reboot. Your all set, this is how to flash with s OFF. If you're S on you will be doing it differently. See guide flashing roms with s ON. Hope this helps you out and answers your question.
Usually if it's a update to your current Rom, wipe sometimes is not necessary. Follow recommendations from the developer for the update. Wipe if he says wipe, do not if he says not necessary. Hope this helps. You should not have to download any thing else if your already running the Rom. You should be fine. Just download the update of course. Best wishes

Thanks! So helpfull.
Now how i know if my device have S off And 4ext intalled?
Sorry the question im newbie on android.
Well when you rooted your device did you s off? If you are not sure you can remove battery, put back in , press power and volume down at Same time, this will bring you to your bootloader, read the information that is on the device. It will either say soft or s on. As for 4ext recovery, you can download several ways, one of the easiest ways is through the playstore, simply download then when you open it you can install it through there.it is 3 dollars.or xda has the download for free.I highly recommend 4ext recovery. It's very simple to use and flash from! It's really the best in my opnion. So check your device to see if s on then report back please
