Phone wont boot after revert cm9 to arhd - HTC Sensation

today I reverted on cm9 to arhd, formatted system, formatted and partitioned sd card with fat32, also used superwipe, and install the rom. however phone wont pass the htc screen. I really dont understand what happened. can someone come up with something? Did I forget something? (already using 3,33 firmware)

Try to skip the superwipe part.. Then use In built wipe of recovery and repeat the steps again.. It might help

I think I don't have boot.img. Doesn't arhd include boot.img in zip file? Also smartflash is enabled. I'm confused.

done with 4ext(format all partitions except sd not used superwipe), installed arhd but still the same.
btw, phone cant' pass the first htc screen, I remember when I was using arhd, after htc screen, the second one was coming and writes "quietly brilliant". When I'm in a recovery, it says "smartflash is currently set to update ur boot partition on next system start, but phone cant' pass first screen.
Phone is S-OFF

You should not enable smartflash when you are SOFF... That messes up phones who has soff
Now reflash 4EXT recovery.. Then go to tools and make sure smartflash is disabled(if not then disable it.. It will be there for that session only though)
Then do the flashing process again

[Q] Bricked HTC Sensation 4G ?!

Today , i successfully rooted my HTC Sensation 4G, everything was working totally fine, but then I wanted to install and custom ROM , called Super Villain Shensation.
I followed everything like the instructions told me to, but it says that the installation was aborted. and when i want to reboot my phone, it just stays on the white HTC logo screen, and doesnt do anything. I am able to get to the bootloader, but when i try recovery the same thing happens. what do i do !?
First of all, it is not bricked. Moving forward you need to re-download the ROM to make sure it is not a corrupted download, then try to flash again.
In order it would be:
-re download ROM again (I would personally suggest a ginger bread ROM that doesn't require you to flash firmware and such)
-download super wipe
-put them both in your sd card, somewhere where you could find the files
-go into your recovery and flash the super wipe zip (found in the Android Revolution thread)
-flash ROM
-let it boot (it will take about 5 minutes)
-done

Need tothrow the pg85.img zip on the root of you're sd card then boot into bootloader. Follow on screen instructions.

Go to your bootloader like previous poster said and paste this file in the root of your sd card.
-Press the up volume rocker once you get the prompt to do it
If everything goes the way is suppose to go, you will be able to get into recovery again and flash whatever ROM you like.

Did you superCID? If not, what is your CID, because the file: P58IMG.zip is the firmware package for your device, and it's CID dependent. Get the one you need from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1459767

What is you hboot if it's 1.18 or below and since you're r now s-on you need to run an ruu for ics that is closes to you stock rom. To upgrade your firmware to an ics compatible firmware. If it's 1.2x then you can htc-dev unlock and if you want s-off use jb then flash 4ext recovery even if your just htc-dev unlock. If your just htc-dev unlocked in 4ext enable smart flash. Now your good to go!

I rooted my phone with this guide: techdraginfo.blogspot.com/2012/06/root-htc-sensation-xe-on-android-403.html
Bootloader details:
"
*** UNLOCKED ***
PYRAMID D PVT SHIP S-ON RL

eMMC-boot
Time and Date
Then HBOOT, details how to scroll and select items, fastboot, recovery, factory reset, simlock and image crc.
"
So, I rooted my phone, then downloaded some apps. I downloaded rom toolbox too. There, I downloaded Cyanogenmod 9. I Installed it and the Cyanogenmod's startup screen thingy was there. So, I removed the battery and rebooted it. Then I started doing all these random things with "HTC All In One Rooting Kit". I flashed CWM 5.8.2.7 Touch, DoomRecovery B! (Custom SWM), Interim (Custom CWM), Stock and Kernel. Then I started rebooted my phone and now it freezes to the HTC starting screen, not even the Cyanogenmod loader pops out anymore.
Try to do a wipe and start it up.

Yes it will do nothing.. You just flashed a recovery.. You need to use that and flash the cm9.1 again
Use that guide as reference and follow it to the letter
(except instead of superwipe use 4EXT - wipe/format- format all partitions except sdcard)

Okay. I got the 4EXT working, did wipe/format. I need that RUU though, and I don't know my firmware radio. How am I supposed to find it out.
Your firmware will be listed under settings,software information, more, base band. it will give your information.usually ICS roms are either 3.32 or 3.33 . I hope this helps.
It will read out the radio and the radio will coincide with the firmware. Example my radio is 11.76.A3504.00p _ this coincides with 3.33 firmware .

[Q] [q] help me please, phone stuck

Hello Everyone
First of all i would like to thank all of the community members for their continious help and support. I am having the following problem with my phone [HTC SENSATION - HBOT -1.27.1100, RADIO -11.24A..., please have a look and let me have your suggestions as how to rectify it to get my phone back to me ---
- Viper rom 1.35 was installed for quite a long time, it was working fine.
-i wanted to try a new rom so as usual i made nanodrop and tried to flash a new rom x,y,z////.
-everything seemed fine, i didn’t liked the rom after flashing so i went back to 4ext backup and opted to restore....a usual process....
-after restore, what i did is, after restore is completed i went to wipe cache/delvik cache and cleared it. and then i pressed reboot........
---not everything screwed after that....,my phone is stuck at the boot screen......
tried again and again....., i then flashed viper1.35 fresh> reboot> same problem> screen stuck on boot
- i though maybe this is due to error in the firmware so in flashed the latest PGM.... firmware 3.33 i guess> then full wipe> flashed new rom----same result
- i tried 5 other rom types which use to work fine and smooth before that....but everything is stuck on boot screen.....
I couldn’t figure it out whats the problem...>>>>??????/
any guesses and solutions

Do u get any error while flashing recovery or it says flashing successfull.
