@gefilus
Pretty well explained.... I see you have the ENG hboot so all you need to is run the RUU.
And please give what errors it gives and what RUU you are using.
Are you expecting wine from water with the info you are giving.
If i'd guess you on need Europe, TMO or O2 RUU...
Run these two fastboot command, you know setup fastboot, biit into fastboot...

@gefilus
So does "some dificulty or just flash ruu" mean you just need the RUU?
This thread has all the RUU's.
You can flash the "1.47.401.4" to get back to stock (sense 2.1) (easy to s-off)
or the latest and (greatest?????) "2.10.401.8"

I did flash ruu. No probelms no errors nothing. All works I'm back on latest last version

Ha yeah sorry again about that D;
but yeah it still failed keeps bringing me back to the hboot screen.
I'm also currently downloading another RUU.
:/

Here is the manual way to flash ruu
First you need to get the rom.zip from ruu
Here is the guide to do that
http://www.freeyourandroid.com/guide/extract-rom-from-ruu
Do it until step 5 only and just get the rom.zip and keep it in your adb folder
Then open command window and type these one by one (with phone connected in fastboot)
fastboot erase cache (if failed ignore it)
fastboot oem rebootRUU (black screen with silver htc)
fastboot flash zip rom.zip (I'm interested in this output.. Post the output if it stuck... Don't kill it at any point if failed/stuck)
fastboot reboot (reboots the phone)

Just having 4EXT recovery doesn't suffice
You need to enable smartflash before flashing any rom..

I think I bricked my Sensation Xe

hi seniors
i am new to Android phones.
I have HTC Sensation Xe which was rooted and with unlocked boot loader, also have super user permission(what ever in technical terminology).
Hboot verion 1.29.0000 and it's S-On.
Recently I tried to install Elegancia Rom on it, after following instructions I flashed my phone.
After restarting my phone, It got stuck at elegancia boot screen.
I have waited for it to boot for more then 15 min, but it never went ahead from that screen.
I have tried to wipe cache and dalvik etc. and re flashed again. But every time it stuck at elegancia boot screen.
I have tried to restore backup( Nandroid) from recovery screen( which is 4ext recovery), but it not recognizing my backup.
Now I am not able to do anything on my phone, so please help me how to revive my phone??

Its not bricked. The problem is you are S-ON and so should have enabled SmartFlash in 4EXT or manually flash a boot.img using fastboot flash boot boot.img
There is a guide somewhere in the general section about flashing ROMs with S-ON, read and follow the instructions

Run original RUU from pc

Thnx again

The type of stock ROM you can install depends on S-ON/S-OFF status, CID and Model ID. you have Sensation XE - Model ID of PG5831001 (I think) so you can only install RUU_Pyramid_LE_ stock RUU's
Then you have S-ON so you can only install the same or higher RUU version as what you are on (to check use fastboot command "fastboot getvar all" and look for mainversion in the output) eg if mainversion = 3.33.401.106 then you can only install the 3.33.401.106 or higher RUU.
Then comes your CID, if you have superCID (11111111) then you can install any RUU, however if you are a tmobile user or vodafone, you will most likely have a different CID (to check use fastboot command "fastboot oem getvar cid"). so if you are tmous CID then you can only flash T-Mobile RUU's but most Sensation XE's sold come with CID HTC__001 which means any RUU version (depending on the above 2 points)

It was like, this update cannot be installed on your phone. My phone was not connected in bootloader mod when I tried, also I have installed Elegancia Sense 4.0 rom on my phone.
BUT AS OF now, I have installed your DarkForest rom and it's working fine. SO I would like to explore the same.
In future if I want to get back to stock rom, then I will get guidance from you.
Thnx man for prompt replies every time. I really appreciates it.

My friend bought this phone recently and it has been used and rooted. It had some version of SAGA 3D rom which he didn`t like and he tried to install one other rom (I don`t exactly know which). Once he installed rom he rebooted his phone and it was stuck on HTC logo for 20 min and then tried to install couple of other roms (Yes he did the full wipe of chache ,data and system ) which also didn`t work and than he gave it to me. I tried to return it back to stock by installing RUU (version RUU_Saga_S_HTC_Europe_2.10.401.9_Radio_20.4801.30.0822U_3822.10.08.04_M_release_234765_signed) . Recovery is REVOLUTIONARY.
I`d appreciate if you could help me .

Anyone know how to enable it without access to rom?
CID is HTC_405

expert please correct me if I'm wrong, but if you want to use the RUU, you need to use the latest one that has 2.00.0002 Hboot or higher if your Hboot is 2.00.0002.. because if you can't push the misc_version you can't "fool" the RUU.. you could try using the ICS RUU.. (that 2.10.401.9 RUU if I remember correctly is the GB with Sense 3.x)

This RUU is only for Russia. Your cid is for Italy nonbranded so
2.10.401.8 should work. Do not forget to lock the bootliader.
If not working you can use adb in custom Recovery or flash the ICS RUU

Forgot to mention this.. you should lock the bootloader in fastboot mode (i believe fastboot mode doesn't require you to turn on adb)
just go to bootloader, connect the phone through USB cable, go to fastboot mode and type:
fastboot oem lock
then flash the ICS RUU..

P.s am currently on 4.0.4 rom

You definitely need to either get s-off or change your CID back to stock before running any RUU (s-on + SuperCID + jb RUU = brick). Do you currently have root on the 4.0.4 ROM you're on? Try issuing this fastboot command:
Code:
fastboot oem writecid CWS__001
It most likely won't work but it's worth a shot. Check the CID afterwards with this command:
