[Q] Most stable 3.5 ROM put?

Hey guys; im hoping you guys can provide some advise for a noob that recently got into the scene with flashing my sensation...im currently running ARHD 3.6.8 and while it's great, I have issues sometimes that the only way for the phone to to start working again is to take the battery out. it happens randomly or also when trying to access the internet it will just sit there and load. I haven't tried sense 3.5 yet and i see there's alot of beta kernels out there as well. At this time, what's the most complete/stable ROM or kernel released? I've done some research and as I mentioned earlier, this is my 1st ROM flashed so I want some inputs from those with more experience and/or have tried most of the ROMs out there.
I'm willing to try anything really, but wife get pissed" when I'm reading xda dev all the time, specially on the weekends, haha
Any inputs are greatly appreciated. Also, Im tmobile US and want to stay stock as much as possible but im down with trying new things! Thanks

Hello guys im also a noob for HTC, my previous phone is galaxy w xD pretty standard, i got my new sensation today so whats the most stable rom ?? Thx

dude u should really go for ARHD 6.4.0 or the newer version that has sense 3.6 that had been released today... well i have been using the 6.4.0 for 2 days but still it is not giving me any problems... i had used arhd 6.0.3 for almost a month and it was very stable... As for me, as long as you get it right it is always the newer the better unless stated by the developer.. So if you are planning to go for ARHD 6.x.x just follow the steps correctly and you will be save and you will definitely love your phone...

OK basically, when you are looking at roms on their OFFICIAL XDA page it should say the firmware required, just download it from the link that they will most probably have provided for you, put it on the root of your sdcard and then boot into hboot and follow the instructions ( pull out battery, reinsert and then hold down the volume down button and the power button). Usually you will only have to flash firmware files for ics roms but if you want to go back to stock ( for warranty issues or if you just want to for the lulz) then you should ALWAYS change your hboot back to the ones supported by revolutionary.io or else you will end up ***ked like i currently am with no solution. To change the hboot just flash an old firmware file or run a RUU file, search it up on google and you are SuperCid so you can use any.

Okey thanks alot man!!! So to get back i just donwload the old frimware??

[Q]Cannot Download ARHD.

Hello.I'm new to sensation.I can't seem to flash ARHD rom.Yes,i'm rooted with revolutionary and CWM v5.0.0.8 and yes,i did the super wipe.But when it comes to the rom,comes out as error,installation aborted.Can anyone tell me what's going wrong?

Have you flashed the latest firmware?
You need to be super cid first ---> see this
Then you flash firmware (3.12) ---> see this thread
Please read read read cause there is valueable information that will seap through the crack if your not careful

Hi,
What ROM are you actually trying to download and install?

See now I'm confused. Your title says you can't download but your post says you can't flash. Now which is it? Cause everyone is giving you solutions on how to download.
If downloading is the problem, see posts 3 and 4
If flashing is your problem, see post 2 (mine)
I'm mobile right now

You only need new firmware for ICS ROM, not for 3.6.x. what are you trying to flash?

Why don't you try asking in the ROM thread. That way the ARHD team are more likely to provide support also.

I'm sorry for the mix-up...I'm having problems flashing the ARHD 6.0.2 ics rom.Probably because i have'nt got super cid and the latest firmware yet.I appreciate the help and again i'm sorry.

Cant download ARDH
Hello, Im pretty new at this with my sensation, the thing is that I cannot download the ARHD 6.8.0 + beats audio from this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1098849 it seems I cannot find the download link for this ROM, where can I find it? Thank you so much!:laugh:

Back to Stock Telstra Rom

Hi All,
Currently running IC Evolution V2.0 Android version 4.0.3 with Sense 4.0.
Is there a way to revert back to the stock ICS telstra ROM as I would like to sell my phone.
Any tutorial would be great.

If you search this thread, you will find the RUU file (executable file that contains ROM, radio and firmware all in one). You just need to plug in, run the RUU and follow the prompts
You didn't specify your model so I'll point out that this is for the Sensation Z710A.

I have time on my hands today so I found the link for you
http://www.multiupload.nl/Q9KWCJ5PG6

I had done this earlier as it was instructed by earlier posts. I went through all the prompts on the RUU file and tells me I have the wrong ROM.
Very confused, hope this gives you a better idea

Did you change your CID before flashing your custom ROM? You might have to change this back before running this RUU.

Not to sure.
Is there a link on how to do this. I'm new to all this stuff.

Read this thread. You will need to set your CID back to TELST001 as per this thread.

The Z710e isn't Telstra's so maybe not.

It is definitely a Telstra branded device.
I just managed to flash the above... Had to manually put it into boot loader... Now phone won't turn on completely, similar to previous issues hence having to take it back to Telstra..

Hi,
Are you s-off?
You are on Ginger Bread.
In order to upgrade you need to change the firmware,for which you need to be s-off.
Go HERE
When you get to the recovery step,use THIS ONE
Then,follow THIS GUIDE
All the stages require a lot of reading and understanding.
All the guides are set out in order.
Do not miss any steps.
Read,then,read it again

I'm assuming you are fully S-OFF.
Do you happen to know your CID at the moment ? If you have the Android SDK and the HTC drivers loaded. Find fastboot and type "fastboot getvar cid". You could SuperCID, i.e. change it to "11111111" then any RUU can be installed. Do you have the option in "About Phone" (sorry can't remember where under that) to update via OTA ?
If you want stock HTC Sense just get a RUU 3.32 or 3.33. Otherwise there are a s**t load of ICS custom ROMs available.

thanx for replying back

I had a quick look at the link and it seemed to have what you need for ICS to work (in.c BT and WiFi). Skype, VOIP etc are ROM/App dependant.
However, NOTE that when you install the new firmware your existing GB ROM will in all probability fail to work.
SO get a target ICS ROM to load up immediately after applying the firmware update.

Hi,
The firmware does not make those things work.
You mean the ROM.
And ,yes,they all work with that ROM.
But ,first you must update the firmware.
Follow joaquinf's guide that I gave you,and you will be fine.

Why you don't simply revert to original cid, flash stock recovery and then check for Ota update from your device?
After update (I think you will receive at least 3 ota update till latest ICS 3.33), you can flash again a custom recovery (CWM or 4EXT) and re-root.
Very easy.
No major issues with latest update to ICS, for me at least.
Cheers.

It's normal, because to install updated from HTC you need stock recovery. If you really want the update(latest has sense 3.6) you should flash stock recovery.
I suggest you try some custom ROMs, they are much better than stock in every possible way. Try ViperS and you won't get disappointed. It has sense 4.1 and sense 4.5 components with android 4.04
Edit: To flash Viper you need 4ext recovery

Okay, and how do i install that instead?

You can get 4ect recovery here or even on the market. Once you download the app just follow the instructions. If your s off do NOT enable smart flash, that's only for s on. It's pretty straight forward. Hope this helps. Best wishes.
