you need to upgrade your firmware to 3.33 before flashing an ICS/JB ROM

its updated to 3.33.any other steps??

if firmware is matching then ..
go to recovery ..then backup your current rom (optional)
then do a wipe (4EXT -> tools -> format all partitions except sdcard)
then flash the rom

HTC Sensation s/w Brick?

my friend installed Rom from CWM and it stuck on HTC Logo (i guess boot loop)
after some research i told him to do
we found out that he phone is S-ON
is it possible to fix this kina of Brick?
i dont need links or something like that just a possible route how to fix it..
Thank you..
You have to flash boot.img from rom zip file from fastboot "fastboot flash boot boot.img" without quotes or enable smartflash in 4ext recovery... Do you have matching fw?

you may have to flash the boot.img manually
that's why it's not booting
in order to get S-OFF i need to install the Boot.img?
i cant just install Stock FIrmware (if possible)
and unlock Bootloader"?
S-OFF is a different story
i suppose you have already unlock bootloader
what fw do you have?
can i take Customize Rom Install it via CWM then install extract boot.img from Zip install it via Fastboot?

yes you can do it via cwm but i suggest you to install 4ext recovery.it is better
As you have cwm your bootloader has been unlocked.... Fastboot or 4ext recovery with smartflash enabled

ok Installed 4EXT
installed serveral Roms with SmartFlash On and also tried Boot.img manually
phone boots but when reach to OS loading it restart again and again..
i need to change the Ext on the System or something?
what else needed to be done?
install the required files 3.33.401.x
for the Rom and still not working
do i need to instal Full Rom of 3.33.401.x
then required files then rom?

by saying required files 3.33.401.x you mean fw i suppose

it matters.
now with that hboot version you can easily S-OFF your device using this site
http://revolutionary.io/ after this you have to change your cid to supercid in order to flash whatever rom you want
if you don't want to do that:go again to this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1412618
flash first the appropriate 3.32 fw then the appropriate 3.33 fw and follow step4B in the link i provided you in my previous post
i should had asked you about your hboot version
i tried SEcond choice and not working maybe i cant install ICS
on the first choice i can enter Settings DEvelopment cause i dont have any OS installed

Did you take a nandroid backup before flashing custom ROM? if yes then restore it, if no then that was silly
If no then there are 2 things you can do:
1. Flash a GB ROM then S-OFF using revolutionary.io method
2. Flash a 3.32 or 3.33 RUU then flash custom ROM
Out of the two I would go with no. 1 because it will save you a great deal of headache later on because revolutionary S-OFF is easier and more user friendly than JuopunutBear
we manage to fix the Brick by using this Thread

your firmware is fine
but you have to install 4ext for the smartflash feature in order to boot the rom after installation

In 4B it says that i can flash only roms with same firmware as mine ! (wich is 3.33) so i can flash only roms based on ics isn't it ?
(i'm sorry for the noob questions :s )

all jb roms can boot in ics firmware.don't worry
besides htc haven't released official jellybean firmware for sensation
these roms are just based on jb
and something else do first a nandroid backup from recovery before anything

did you use htcdev unlock method to unlock the bootloader?
edit:if you tried to flash an ics rom then it won't boot because with your hboot version you have gb firmware
you have to upgrade first your firmware to ics and then flash the ics rom
and to upgrade firmware you must S-OFF first
to SOFF: http://revolutionary.io/
to upgrade firmware: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1459767
flash 3.33fw universal
just follow very carefully the installation steps and before flashing check md5 sums(important)
after flashing the firmware install the ics rom because your current rom(GB) won't boot on an ics firmware
continued rnexpec
if you don't want to S-OFF
You must have 4Ext Recovery, before flash a zip rom. Enable Smart Flash in 4Ext and after that install the rom

i haven't used it personally but i think you have to do it if you want to S-OFF ,flash ics firmware,install ics roms
otherwise with your firmware version(GB) you can install only GB roms
yes thx a lot i flash rom now

you have two options:
1)to S-OFF the device and then root
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1661631
after that flash the rom from recovery
2)use this guide
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1631861

if you choose second option don't forget to enable smartflash from recovery before flashing the rom
also make a nandroid backup just in case

yes you can
make a backup of your current rom from recovery
i suggest to use 4ext recovery
then from 4ext format all partitions except sdcard
enable smartflash from 4ext(because you are on S-ON)
flash the rom
done

Yes, that's the way you do it when you're S-On, though you don't need to use 4ext, you could also use twrp and enable HTC Dumlock.
If your phone doesn't boot after flashing it could be possible that you need to flash 3.33 firmware first.

no you need to upgrade first yout firmware to ics
S-OFF your device with revolutionary.io method
http://revolutionary.io/
then upgrade your firmware from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1459767
download 3.33 universal
follow the instructions to the letter
and before flashing check md5 sums(important)
after upgrading your firmware your gb rom won't boot because you have ics firmware
just flash any ics or kitkat rom from recovery
note:you don't need smartflash because you will be on S-OFF
