Alright, so I've had an htc sensation running on leedroid 3.10 for quite some time now. Recently it started to restart randomly, so I decided to upgrade my rom. So then I attempted to install insertcoin ICS, but I needed a new radio. So I chose one figuring it would work and now my device doesn't connect to internet or even my data. Whenever I try to install a different radio now to attampt fixing it, it says I have the wrong CID! I NEED my phone to work soon because i have a lot of important things to do that involve it!! Thanks for all help and please respond soon! FYI it says my radio is 10.11.9007.06_M2. Should I maybe reflash the hboot?
EDIT: And in case you're wondering, I've been searching for the solution for hours. I've never been more afraid of anything not working than this phone, and I can't afford a new phone, so please help!
First, you need to be superCid in order to install any radio without issue, Have a look in this post, Step 4
After that, you need to install corresponding firmware before flashing ICS rom. read this Thread

Hi,
10.11.9007.06_M2 is a few steps backwards/downwards on the radio ladder.
You can see the order HERE
What is your actual plan?
Do you want ICS?
If you want ICS ,you either need Super CID,or look at THIS POST
Right now there are 2 ICS bases:
3.12.....Sense 3.5
3.24.....Sense 3.6
When you install the appropriate firmware for either ROM,it will have the new radio inside the PG58IMG.zip
A good thread to follow is HERE
If you are not confident about upgrading to ICS,you could just flash the radio:
10.58.9035.00U_10.15.9035.02_2
and carry on with GingerBread.
Hey guys. I've got a rooted HTC sensation XE running on clockwork recovery mod and I was just wondering whether I'll be able to update my phone when I get the official ICS update from HTC? This may have been posted a few times, but I didn't find anythig that was accurately answerig my question. Thanks in advance.
EDIT: After hours of thinking, browsing and getting help from others, I have finally successfully updated my phone to the new ICS. Special thanks to SquithyX.
If you have any doubts, feel free to ask me.

No you can't.. After you update you will get Wifi Error due to kernel mismatch..
there is a fix for this too in Dev forum..
Hi IceCookies, don't listen to the other poster on this thread, they are just scaremongering!
If your XE is Stock 1.73.401.4 and the only thing you have done is flash clockwork and root...then with one change you can with ease, i did my XE last night - official OTA push and my mates XE this morning using files on sd card.
You NEED to have the stock recovery, CWM will not work. Easiest way to get stock for XE is to install Recovery Manager from on here.
Then you can either wait for the OTA push to your phone or download the file from the HTC servers and push it yourself.
Noted so far, ICS is MUCH faster and more responsive. After update you should still be s-off too!
Hope this helps mate, if you want any more help let me know and will guide you through

It worked great for me to just rename the .zip to update.zip and install it using CWM.
I had to install the newest hboot found here on xda, though, otherwise the OS would get stuck in the middle of the boot process...

As for you my friend, I've already tried pushing in the update myself through CWM and it didn't quite work out.
Okay, so guys, I've tried to push in the OTA update myself. I flashed the stock ROM(I think). But the problem is my software number is 1.73.415.3. And I can't get it to flash back to Stock.
Ok, is you phone branded to any network? What is your CID? You can find out using terminal or CID getter from the market, it sounds like you have a branded phone.
You can still have the OTA flash but will need a few more steps before being able to flash it
No, my phone is not branded by any phone carrier if that's what you mean. The phone didn't have to be unlocked or anything by the carrier. When I got the phone it was stock and unlocked and ready to use. Now, whenever I try to install the new OTA update, it says installation aborted(Status 7).
I'll get you the CID now, gimme a sec.
Btw, you got msn or something so you can help me through instant messaging?
Yea it will as the OTA update is only for 1.73.401.4 which is EU default firmware. Whats your CID? From the looks of it, CID is something like HTC__J15 (just a guess).
What you will need to do is to change your CID to either EU WWE CID (HTC__001) or to SuperCID (11111111) Then flash 1.73.401.4 then you can upgrade with the OTA files.
Get CID Getter (free) from the Market / Play Store and it will show you your CID, or if you have Terminal installed use "su" then "getprop ro.cid" to find out what your CID is.
Alright dude, my CID is HTC_J15.
But see, the update for ICS will soon come to the middle east, and I'm guessing the default firmware for the middle east is the one that I stated above. So should I actually degrade to the EU firmware and then install my country's ICS update?
Now that my friend is up to you, if you change your CID to SuperCID you can install any and all firmwares, be them EU, Middle East, China, or even branded ones such as AT&T, O2, Bell... (not sure why you would want to though!) Or using the EU WWE CID will let you install any WWE ROM.
If you don't mind waiting for the OTA update for the Middle East to be rolled out then just sit tight and when HTC are ready your phone will tell you, should be about 1-2 weeks tops i suspect. The OTA update out at present is only for EU WWE ROMS.
But...if you NEED / want the OTA update now, then you will have to change your CID and install the EU WWE ROM.
The EU one is not a downgrade, HTC use different version numbers to target there updates, the ROMS with be almost identical. Its just like all the versions numbers are different for all the branded ROMS.
Ah alright. But bro, if I wait and get the update directly from HTC, will I still need to unroot and go back to stock from clockwork mod to install the official update?
You will have to have stock recovery and stock ROM, root doesn't matter, you can de-root or just leave it and after the OTA Update you can re-root.
Sent from my HTC Sensation XE with Beats Audio Z715e using xda premium
Alright buddy, but I'm having a hard time finding the Stock ROM, tried google'ing and stuff.
I should get the software number to be 1.73.403.3 and then install the stock ROM, and after that install the OTA or is there an easier way?
First off you will need to change the CID on your phone to either SuperCID (1111111) or EU WWE CID (HTC_001) - I left my as EU WWE CID as it is the most used CID for custom ROMS.
Then install the Stock ROM (1.73.401.4) - That will also give you the stock recovery
From there you can install the OTA Update and have ICS
Alright, this might be a really nooby thing to do, but could you link me or tell me where to get the EU WWE CID?
Okay mate, I have successfully changed my CID to SuperCID(11111111). Now I just need to install the Stock ROM.
Ok, here you go:
1. Set your CID using this guide (part4)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1192300
You can either use CID HTC__001 or 11111111
2. The flash file for EU WWE ROM is:
RUU_Pyramid_LE_HTC_Europe_1.73.401.4_Radio_10.58.9035.00U_10.15.9035.02_2_release_220036_signed.exe
You can find it here:
http://www.filefactory.com/f/c87a2330449af512/
3. Update using OTA update from HTC server:
http://fotadl.htc.com/OTA_PYRAMID_L...73.401.4_P_release_246589q3t6rh79ci68p68k.zip
Or use your own files if you have them.
Hope this helps you out
Ah, sweet. I already have the OTA update downloaded. Trying to download the flash file for the EU WWE ROM now, but it keeps saying the free download spots on the servers are currently in use, so I guess I gotta wait.
EDIT: Nvm, googled the EU WWE ROM, and found the same ones on some other sites, in progress of downloading them now.
I'm seeing all these posts about updated radios and s-off, but I really am not following, because I feel like I am jumping into a discussion midconvo and so I am lost on a couple of things.
My phone says 1.64 not 1.5x or whatever. How do I get it to 1.7x?
To my knowledge, I cannot flash this update via CWM, I need stock recovery, so basically I need to revert my phone back to stock recovery? Once I revert it to stock recovery, do I flash the update via recovery or through an adb push?
Hopefully i'm making sense, but if im not, then at least you know how clueless I am, and would be able to guide me.
I really appreciate any and all help! Thanks everyone!

1.7x is the rom base that is used which includes an updated radio, for example TMO US roms have a 1.58 base as the OTA has not come out yet. In europe the OTA came out for 1.78 base with updated radios. If you follow the guide i link below you can get updated to the latest radio, and can have more confidence that you are on the latest radio. That being said you can still run the same radio that you currently have on new roms with a 1.7x base but your radio wont be the most updated.
here is a great post from the other thread with exact instructions

thank you for this! I was having a problem trying to figure out these radio, as I just s-off and cid111111 my One S.
I can't really find an answer to this, so I hope someone will shed some light for me. I cam3 off 1.73 stock. After rooting and unlocking bootloader, I flashed Clean Rom SE. Now build number shows as 1.85.502.3 and Kernel 3.0.8-01158. Did this ROM also flash my radio via boot.img? Or do I still have a radio from 1.73, how can I tell. I have been experiencing weird network drops where I get no signal and have to turn on airplane mode on and off to get it back, like some of the people on the forum, so was hoping new radio would solve that. Or do I have to RUU first to update everything then flash custom ROM? Thank you in advance.
Unless something has changed that I am unaware of your still on the radio from 1.73 the Rom.zip has the boot image enclosed (kernel) but not the radio. You can flash the radio separately here is a link to the flash files for radios

I everyone, hope that I post my question in the good part of the forum!
I tried to follow the instructions on that thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1684477 in order to flash the newest radio.
Currently my radio is 0.17.31501S.10_2_10.27.31501S.10L but I'd like to flash the 0.16.31501S.17_2_10.23.31501S.10L one. I both tried with CWM and TWRP and the radio's flash process seems to be done correctly in the recovery (no errors) but when I go to settings>about phone it's still the old one...
I can't find what I'm doing wrong... I'm on Coldblooded CM10 rom (JB) and my hboot is 1.13
Hope you'll be able to answer my question!
:fingers-crossed:
Thx in advance.
From all reports around here, hboot 1.13 doesn't allow flashing the new radio separatly.
I am on the same hboot and can't flash it.
If you are desperate, go the superCID way.

So there is no solutions yet to upgrade our hboot?

I suppose you meant downgrade? upgrading hboot is possible via RUU or OTA which will also upgrade your radio.
Staying at an older hboot is preferred because you could access exploits like upgrading radio only.
in the dev-section football upload the RUU of 4.0.4 that update everything, radio and hboot. i tried yesterday and everything goes fine...now i've not no more the signal problem!
Ok so now I have a dilemma :
- Should I stay on my older Hboot 1.13
- Should I upgrade it to a new one to have the newest radio
...
The question is more like : Is the newest radio is really better than the one i currently have?
If some people have upgraded theirs can give some usefull answers.
NB : I'm on CM10 ROM now! (which is a very great rom except for the camera pb but I'm confident, the devs will find a solution!)

1.13 hboot does not differ much from 1.14.. but the newest radio did really a great job on solving the signal issue.
the new radio is awesome .
Sent from my HTC One S
yup, hboot 1.13 and 1.14 are pretty much the same..i suggest you go get the new RUU..remember to supercid first, try to install it on HTC__001 but it failed..supercid does the trick
