Download goo manager from the market and it will install twrp I think it's called open recovery in the app. Then you can flash any rom, but with twrp instead of cwm.

[HELP] VipersS Flashing Issue

i flashed VipersS and when i reboot it just does like...a boot loop on the bright HTC logo screen??? idk if thats boot looop or not...please someone help me, and im dieing to use VipersS Rom, btw, im on S-OFF

Do you have the correct firmware 3.32 or 3.33? Did you do a wipe before flashing? I'm s off and before I installed viper I wipe cash, wipe dalvik , wipe data factory reset (do this in 4ext recovery) stay in recovery choose zip from sd card , flash, reboot.
It should be fine if you follow those steps and Are using the correct firmware.hope this helps.

i am coming from the amazing Elegancia. and i originaly wanted VipersS Rom but never got it to work, so idk exsactly what version im coming from, all ik is im coming from the latest Elegancia. Ik all the wiping procedures. lol im not new to rooting, just new to HTC and the Sensation.

Try it as I told you and it should work, wiping is very important. You do have 4 ext recovery don't you? 4 ext makes things very easy, . Just remember to wipe before installation. Hope this helps and hope you enjoy your sensation!

but.....Elegancia is a ics sense 4.0 rom??? wtf...this phone man...g2x is so much easyer to do...lol
so...how do i upgrade i guess to 3.33?

First download the universal 3.33 firmware then you install it from the bootloader.
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G with Beats Audio using xda app-developers app

To put the firmware on your device put the pg58img file on root of sd card then reboot into bootloader by removing battery put battery back in, press volume down and power your device will recognize the file and ask to upgrade volume up for yes. It will upgrade then remove the file off the sd card or it will continue to want to update. This is how you install firmware
It seems like a lot but once you do it you won't forget.

Yeah, i upgraded to 3.33...still does the htc logo reboot...wtf...

Don't know why it's still not booting? You followed all the directions and seemed to have done everything correctly that I know of. Hopefully someone else has more ideas. Try a fresh download see if that will help , if not I'm not sure what else to do.perhaps someone else has some ideas. I do wish you the best and I'm sorry it's not booting? Is it just viper not booting? Very strange. I do wish I could be of more help

[ROM] CMX CyanogenMod 10

Hello friends,
Today I installed ROM from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1782009 .
Before I made backup etc etc.
After ROM installation I installed gapps for JB.
All installation processes went succefully.
The problem is:
- phone is starting but handling on loading screen CMX CyanogenMod 10 and this "cosmic guy"
Did I do something wrong?
HW Specification:
HTC Sensation
Before ROM change: Android 4.0.3 (ICS) 3.33.401.106
Thanks in advance for all replies. (If I place this post in bad place, dear admin im sorry but I don't know enough forum structure. Please move it )
Best regards,
Mat

So its stuck on the CM10 boot screen?
Are you sure you did a factory reset/wipe after backing up, and before flashing the new ROM?

Do you use 4ext recovery or cwm recovery ?

Did you flash the gapps right after the rom flashing?
Try to install them separately.
First install the rom then let it boot, set some things up and let it idle for some couple of minutes.
Then reboot and install the gapps.
That's how I usually do.

I installed rom and after that (without reboot) gapps. I was waiting 2 hours with boot screen but it's not working.

Well I think the 4EXT Recovery Touch is just a much nicer experience. It's slick, simple, but does so much.
I flashed gapps directly after CM9 ROM with no problems at all. After a factory reset/wipe in 4EXT Recovery Touch. Haven't had a problem there. Don't know about CM10.

With the 4ext you have to tick smartflash, then you don't need s-off

Thanks for your replies
Have a good night

Do you use Superwipe ?
AOSP rom does not support Superwipe tool.
You shold go Wipe factory data / Wipe Cache menu to do dual wipe.
Hope that helps you

It's working now. I just needed S-off I'm a "noob" in that things so I just need more tutorials And everything is working now : )

Maybe you should try 4ext
Sent from my HTC Sensation using xda premium

if the issue is only with the boot loop stuck image then....
Just extract the boot image from the ROM zip file and place it in the adb folder on the OS partition then use fast boot commands to push the boot image to the device. it should work, worked for me.:good:

If you can read and think, yet still asking this kind of questions, there are three possibilities why:

2. You're lazy.
3. Both.

My phone got sent back to HTC when it WAS rooted. They left S-OFF, They set Custom recovery back to stock and put the latest Firmware on it.
THIS is why I am stuck.

Well, once you're s-off you should install a custom recovery so you could install custom roms. I suggest 4Ext recovery (see my signature for the link) . After that you should Nandroid (e.g complete backup) you phone through the recovery. It will create a large file in your SD card which contains a full backup of your phone. Later you can install whatever rom you wish. I suggest you begin with Android Revolution HD - it looks like stock but it contains latest kernels, mods and tweaks.
