Okay, my HTC Sensation does not boot at all. Even when i run the stock Firmware... It has S-OFF Revolutionary... The only ROM that works is the ViperS and that also comes along with the issue that says com.android.phone has stopped working, along with that the wifi does not work... I've tried EVERYTHING! Can anyone help me please?!
Make sure you have the correct firmware 3.32 or 3.33. Also download 4ext recovery.It's a great recovery and really easy to use.you're soff so you should after doing those things be able to place Rom at root of sd card, do wipe data factory reset, wipe cash, wipe dalvik then install from sd card and reboot. Make sure to have your nandroid backup to be safe. You shouldn't have a issue after doing these things.

I've flashed both 3.23 and 3.33 and still no progress and also i already have that recovery..... And i never did a nandroid backup so i'm stuck!
OK try to wipe everything aside from your sdcard from recovery. Then Install the rom twice, then reboot. Also have you used the superwipe script? Some roms, mostly aosp/aokp roms are not compatible with it. Let us know

Greetings Developers!

Same problem here too. Sensation on 2.3.4 rooted eng s-off trying to install demonspeed kernel but installation aborted. I restart the phone and now the WiFi has error. Then I have to do a complete restore via cw recovery.
Im bumping this one as i have the same problem. Im on the default ROM, trying this kernel:
[KERNEL][NOV.04]Bricked-Kernel|2.6.35.14|v1.5|[email protected]/192|3DFIX|BATTSAVER|ZRAM|CCACHE
I get a status 7 when trying to flash.
All ive done is to have the zip on my SD, wipe cache partition and dalvik cache, and then "install zip from.."
The installation is pretty simple, so i dont really know what to do here hehe Any ideas?
Got a Sensation btw, its s-off and permanently rooted.
This seems to work ok for me ..
Give it a try ..

Hi there,
I've been flashing roms for more than one year now and never had a problem before (I never did a Nandroid backup )
I was using the Virtuous Inquisomething for the past month but I decided to try the Quattro version. Finding it too laggy, I decided to go back to the Inquisi... But problem, after flashing it, my phone keebs rebooting... Htc logo, shows the V logo (sometimes doesn't), black out, then restarts again. I tried different roms, HD Revolution, Light Rom, even the Quattro that I had before but my phone keeps rebooting. I flashed the Firmware to the 3.30, same thing. I wiped the dalvik cache, the cache and everything I could wipe but I have the same problem !
I tried to flash an original file, a Ruu but my computer can't find my phone because I can only access the ToggleUSB via the recovery
Do you guys know how to fix this? Anyone has a Nandroid Backup that I can use? (Tmobile - Sensation 4G? )
Thank you in advance
Curiously, have you ever superwiped your Sensation while doing all these flashes? There might be some residual files here and there that's just causing chaos inside the phone. D:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1098849 Here's the link for ARHD's original thread which has the superwipe down toward the bottom of the first post under "Downloads" and you just flash it like any other file through the 4EXT touch recovery (if you're using that!).
Flash latest firmware.
Download and flash latest ARHD Rom.
Problem solved let me know if anything goes wrong

Thanks for replying. I did exactly what you guys said but... same error... Boots, write HTC ... Quietly brillant and boots again !
I even formatted my Sd Card :/ !
Anyone has a Nandroid Backup?
I see that you only updated to 3.30 firmware. Try updating to the final firmware 3.32 and superwipe before flashing a new rom.
I have HTC Sensation 4G (T-Mobile) and downloaded the 3.2 firmware here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1459767
I used T-Mobile one, though I guess it didn't matter because I have superCID. When I turn my phone on it keeps restarting at the white HTC screen, vibrates, then HTC screen again. Can't start up my phone.
Don't think it matters..but I did delete "su-2.3.6.3-efgh-signed" a while back.
Just put the correct PG58IMG on ur SD card and let the bootloader do the update once again ..
Remember also to remove the pg58img file from the sd card after the installation of the firmware

Do you guys know if there's an work towards a new firmware that will allow us with the boot loop to flash ROMs? I'd really like an AOSP ROM the only fix known is with HTC Sense.

Also keep in mind that when you install new firmware you have to wipe and reinstall your ROM. A lot of times the Cache and sometimes the Data partitions will corrupt when you install new firmware, so you will need to grab a flash-able ZIP of your current ROM (or Android Revolution HD, it's nice as well!).
Go into recovery mode, wipe everything but your SD card (of course) then install your ROM again from your SD card.

Oh wow. Firmware 3.32 only works with ICS ROMs, right? I didn't wipe and flash a new ROM, just ran the same Gingerbread HTC sense that came with the phone. That would probably be the reason why I bootloop?

Yeah, it's for ICS ROMs, but I would think it would still work with Gingerbread. I'm not sure. I know from experience that if you flash a new Radio, RIL, Firmware, etc it is recommended to reflash your ROM, no matter what ROM you're on. Since the OS relies on the firmware, RIL, and Radio that you were using before, it can't load the new package without a wipe.
The situation is kind of like switching ROMs and then dumping the Data and Cache partitions from your OLD ROM onto the new ROM before it even boots. In most cases, it won't boot.
After I boot into recovery and come 4ext touch recovery screen and tape on wipe/format and it brings up wipe/format menu,wipedata/factory reset,wipecache,wipe cache+ dalvik,wipe dalvik cache,wipe batt stats,format system,format data,format boot,format all partitions(except sd card) format sd card.which ones do I wipe before I install a new Rom.

No problem. You can also use Superwipe from ARHD ROM thread. It cleans everything for a fresh install.
problem switching ROMs
I have been running ARHD 6.6.3 and am trying to switch to OrDroid 7.1.2.
I thought all I had to do to switch would be
-boot into recovery
-run superwipe (from ARHD thread)
-install OrDroid ROM
but when I do this and reboot it just goes into bootloop.
What step for switching between ROMs am I missing?
are you using the correct firmware for the Rom? Ics based Roms use 3.32 firmware?
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using xda premium
In settings>about phone>software>more it says my build number is 3.32.401.5
I thought it might be this but I already tried reinstalled the latest firmware and still no luck. I was running ARHD before (obviously also a ICS ROM) which is why I don't understand why I can't get OrDroid running.
Still having problems. I ran Superwipe and installed Virtuous Inquisition 4.0.2 and that worked ok. Then I ran Superwipe and installed ARHD 6.6.3 again and that also worked. I redownloaded the mirror link for OrDroid 7.1.2 and that still didn't work even using the same process that got the other ROMs working. I also tried installing OrDroid 7.1.0 but that didn't work either.
Anyone know why other ROMs seem to be loading fine but OrDroid just gets stuck in a bootloop everytime?
Any help is much appreciated
Thanks
Before installing a new ROM, especially if the two ROMs differ in Sense version or Android version, go to Recovery, select Wipe | Format & Wipe all partitions except SD Card.
This is a fix for the bootloop issue too.
When backing up the Rom that's in your phone before installing the new one does it matter if I back it up in the back up or the advance back up.and what's the difference in the to different back ups?

Do you have 4ext recovery installed? If not install it. Place Rom at root of sd card . Go into 4ext and wipe cash, then wipe dalvik, then wipe data factory reset, then press in 4ext install zip from sd card. Choose your Rom. Then install. Reboot from 4ext and your Rom SHOULD boot. You have the correct firmware so that's not a issue. Give this a try and see if Rom will boot. No reason for it Not to boot. Your also s off so that's not a issue. Try this and see if it works. Best wishes .
Make sure you have a nandroid backup incase of problems.

Seems like lot of ppl had these problems.. They can only boot AOSP roms.. Just like you.. Unfortunately no one has a solution for this... May be if you can give us a logcat while having boot loop then we can see what causing the problem... I did received some logcat but I'm not that knowledgeable.. Give me some ill try to contact couple of devs.. Regarding this

Just out of curiosity would it help or perhaps make a difference if they tried 4ext recovery instead of team win? It's worth a try ?? All else had failed it won't hurt to try?... Maybe it will boot ?
