[Q] Failed Cyanogen Installation -> Half-Bricked Desire S

Hello, members )
My story:
Since i never liked HTC Sense i tried to migrate to Cyanogen.
I performed the following steps:
1. Bootloader was unlocked with HTC site.
2. 4ExtRecovery installed.
3. Cyanogen "update-cm-7.1.0-DesireS-signed" was installed via 4Ext from sd card.
Now phone stucks at HTC logo. Access to bootmenu, recovery is available.
I tried to flash RUU_Saga_S_HTC_Europe_2.10.401.5_Radio_20.4801.30.0822U_3822.10.08.04_M_release_219480_signed.exe but it ends with an error.
Phone data:
***UNLOCKED***
SAGA PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-2.00.0002
RADIO-3822.10.08.04_M
eMMC-boot
Any chance to recover phone functionality?
Thanx in advance.

Have you made a backup of your previous ROM? If not try one of the custom sense roms or run the ruu without attached device, don't close the first window and search for the rom.zip, copy it to another folder and delete everything in the zip file except the system.img, rename it to pg88img.zip and flash it in bootloader or flash the image itself with fastboot.
As much as I know is your problem that with htcdev the kernel isn't unlocked and cause cyanogen needs another then sense, it doesn't work.

flashed pg88img.zip via bootloader. no effect, still hangs on white HTC logo screen (

first thing you should do is to go s-off, then you can install custom roms.

He's unlocked by htc dev
You can also try flashing the full package with all content from the rom.zip, but this sets also your unlocked state of the bootloader back and be sure that you use the latest version of the ruu.

seems like RUU_Saga_S_HTC_Europe_2.10.401.5_Radio_20.4801.30. 0822U_3822.10.08.04_M_release_219480_signed.exe is te latest but it ends with an error.
I have already tried a few roms, but the result is the same HTC logo screen

You need to manually flash the boot.img from CM 7.1 when you have the unlocked bootloader.

If you are htcdev unlocked, you have to flash boot.img separately. Are you S-On ? Post all info from your bootloader.

after unlocking boot loader i made a goldcard and attempt to install a stock ruu including arabic language but i get error
after that i installed recovery and attempt to install many roms but after finishing mobile stuck on htc green logo
so what can i do ??

On hboot 2 you have to flash the boot.img for a ROM separately using fastboot, after you've flashed the ROM in Recovery. Yes, a bit of a pain.

Did you just fastboot flash boot.img you need to fastboot flash boot boot.img and it will work when you restart the phone.

[Q] [HELP] cannot go beyond HTC splash screen after trying to flash ROM

I have an HTC sensation which was running stock GB 2.3 Rom. I S-offed , super CID using kgs utility and flashed 4ext touch recovery.
I tried to install ARHD 7.1 ICS rom. So I tried to update to the latest 3.34 firmware and followed standard procedure by copying the PG58img.zip to the root of SD card .
After flashing I restarted my phone but its stuck on the htc splash screen and also the firmware hasn't updated.

Hi , i suggest, go into recovery, do full wipe (all partitions except sd card) , flash the rom again and then reboot. It should work.
Btw did you meant you have firmware 3.33, because this the recommended firmware for the rom be the developer.
Good luck

First u flash jb hboot or eng hboot or revolutionary hboot it vll unlock your bootloader then try flashing firmware 3.33 againg then boot into recovery and flash the Rom you want
Remember when coming from different Rom full wipe except sd card is recommended after flashing rom wipe dalvik cache and cache and your done
Best of luck for flashing
