hi there
i have just bought an htc sensation xe and its on 2.3.4
i have tried to upgrade the phone to ics
but it keep telling me that there no update available for your phone and its up-to date :crying::crying:
i contacted (the official htc care center in egypt ) and they send you have to come here and make a manually update there
when i got there their representative told me that we stoped the ics update here due to many problems of it and many htc sensations xe owners downgraded to the old soft agian and we dont recommend upgrading your phone
so what should i do now ???

with 2.3.4 you have it means that your hboot is 1.17 so you can use revolutionary.io method to S-OFF your device
i think you won't lose warranty

I think it depends on the carrier about the warranty, I've sent a phone in for warranty with s-off, got the replacement and they never said anything about it.. I'm currently using hypernonsense ROM, it's really good for my needs.. but to flash an ics ROM you would have to flash an ics firmware first then then the ROM

turn off your device,pull out the battery,put it again
then press and hold power button and volume down together until it goes to bootloader
in the top of the screen it shows your hboot version.if it is 1.17(probably it is because of your android version)then go here
http://revolutionary.io/ and do the steps

I don't have to do it at this time right? I could always choose to do it later correct? The reason I ask is because I read that you would not be able to receive any OTA updates HTC pushes out.

well if you don't want to install ics custom rom you don't have to but if you want you have anyway there are ics fw that can be installed without supercid but imo it is better to supercid
edit: and if you supercid you can revert it back....however if you have rooted the phone you can't receive OTA, or better you can but it will brick your phone

yes man before getting the ota you MUST flash the stock htc RUU which you can find in the development forum
Almost everyone does SuperCID after rooting.
After Rooting, I didn't though. I just S-Offed. A week later, I realized I had to SuperCID to get some ROMs to work. So I did it and never regretted.
Go for it.

Always sper cid for safe side. If you change to supre cid will be very useful no need to worry.

I also did not super CID right away, but for a lot of ROM it is necessary so eventually I had to do it and never regreted it so far...
yup really helpful I did

what exactly did I miss?
I have not needed supercid, I simply s-off'd and not needed any such thing.
I have updated the fw and I'm running Virtuous Inquisition ICS rom, no problems?
I really don't understand why you'd want to change the CID or how it affects ROMS
You don't have to supercid, but it might be handy at some point. It will allow you to flash any ruu shall you ever need it.
Sent throught the wormhole from my CoinInserted Sensation OG.
There are no downsides. I did it as soon as I got my Sensation.
I bought my sensation pre rooted, I have latest firmware and am runnin a 4.0.3. Rom, so does this mean the guy used superCID or whatever
sent from my insertcoined T-Mobile HTC Sensation 4G with Beats audio
Well I must say Im glad I went supercid
I think I saved me a super headache when I got stuck in a bootloop from flasing a ICS the wrong way whatever I did wrong I was able to find a stock RUU in no time thanks y'all.

if your not branded,
you will almost never have to supercid for a custom rom to install.
but for example if a firmware update is mandatory, you might depending on your cid/mid.
i own a xe device and never supercid it, can install anything without problems. (dont always) believe what people say, but always check the description on the base of your own cid/mid yourself.
that said,it cant hurt to supercid, but if its not mandatory why?
+1 Me too
+1 I've supercid as well, changed a few times back to orginal CID because of warranty without problem.
I know ... not send private messages ....

Ah ok are you S-ON with hboot 1.27? If so Have a look at this thread.
They are developing ways of getting devices that have hboot 1.27 and S-ON converted to S-off.
They may be able to help.

Hi,
I bought HTC Sensation 4G from US 3 days ago.. The device works flawlessly.. But the problem is it does NOT support my language !
Since the International Sensation and Sensation 4G is almost identical .. My question is it possible to Flash international sensation RUU ROM on the Sensation 4G without bricking the device ?! Or doing that will brick it ?!
BTW It's S-OFF already ..
Waiting your replies ..
Thnx in advance
Since it's S-OFF, you're going to have to perform super-cid so that you can flash an international RUU. There's a stickied guide in the Android Development section that tells you how to obtain S-OFF, root, and super-cid. You might want to get another opinion, because I've never had to do it, but from what I've gathered, it's that easy.
1) S-Off and Root (Seems like it's already done, rooting isn't totally required for this)
2) Change CID to super-cid (a bunch of ones)
3) Run RUU.exe and enjoy
