Sensation 4G Brick!! - HTC Sensation

I can get into CMW 5.8.0.9. Flash Roms but no matter what I do, they do not boot. I have tried even restoring the stock ROM, from Backup. Used the RUU method, Nothing works. All of them get stuck at the HTC logo.
How do you S-Off without booting into ICS???
Is there a way to update/downgrade the Hboot to flash anything that will boot the device???
Any help will be apreciated

If you are S-Off, then there is no need to use HTC Dev to unlock your bootloader.
You can just flash an unlocked hboot like Revolutionary or Juopunutbear.
You'll need to relock your bootloader before that using this command:
Code:
fastboot oem lock
You can find Juopunutbear hboot along with flashing instructions here: http://unlimited.io/jbhboots.htm

[Q] Unlocked bootloader Sensation XE in boot loop. Please help

I have a sensation xe and it has gone into a boot loop after unlocking the bootloader using HTC unlock method. I think i flashed a completely wrong ICS boot.img and since then have not been able to use it.
I have tried various RUUs to try and reset it back to the shipped Gingerbread rom. But everything has failed. Please help. Oh and the phone is S-ON. I could not manage S_OFF with revolutionary.
current image version: 1.77.720.103
radio 10.14.9035.02_2
hboot 1.18.0000

[Q] I have S-OFF but locked HBoot 1.27, how do I unlock it without going through htc

I have a sensation with S-off via Revolutionary IO, but I took the ICS update and the HBoot was upgraded to 1.27 and was locked. I want to try the Bruce2728 CM10 Kang. What would be the next step for me? Should I just use the Sensation_4G_All-In-One_Kit to flash 4EXT recovery and install the rom? Do I have to unlock the 1.27 Hboot first? What about hacking the CID to make it a superCID? Thanks for your help.

Have missed S-OFF, how to fix it in bootloader?

I have unlocked my bootloader and rooted my HTC Sensation XE and then tryied 3 custom ROMs but its stops on the boot logo and after som reasarch i found out that i have S-ON but should have S-OFF to get everything to work.
But all i found need a Android OS working to get the S-OFF set.
Someone has any ideas or is it time to get a new phone?
You can still flash roms while s-on. Flash boot.img seperately or if you use 4ext recovery, enable smartflash in settings before you flash the rom. There is a good guide about this. Use the search button.

[Q] Need HELP!

My device HTC Sensation
HBoot: 1.27.0000
Firmware: 3.33.401.53
Rooted
S-ON
The problem is I tried to flash a custom ROM (Viper, MIUI etc) but all of them get stuck on the HTC Logo screen.
Currently I have no ROM installed, tried the RUU but always failed to find the correct version. Going S-OFF will help I guess but I can't get that done without a ROM installed.
What to do?
Ur s-on so u will need to flash the boot.img before/after u flash a rom.
Boot recovery
Full wipe
Flash rom
Boot straight into fastboot
Flash boot.img
Reboot
Click the sensation help thread in my sig, guides there.

Also, make sure you have smartflash enabled in 4EXT recovery.
Note: 4EXT recovery is required for s-on users. Also, don't forget to wipe all partitions before changing ROMs.

After flashing proper boot.img either manually or via 4ext recovery, if your phone still gets stuck on splash screen/bootanimation, WAIT ATLEST 10 mins. First boot always takes longer.
Happy to help.

[Q] HTC Desire S HBOOT 2.00.0002 stuck recovery

Hi.
Having issues regarding a stuck recovery at htc logo.
phone is:
unlocked, rooted
hboot is 2.00.0002
S-ON
i would really like to downgrade to 0.9x so that i can use revolutionary to flash whatever i want.
i have tried everything in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1447062
nothing works.
can not get another hboot in to the phone.
can anyone help me?
PS yes i have checked the official thread, makes no sense to me.
Since you're unlocked (but why? you could have gone S-OFF just as easily without unlocking) you can simply download a custom recovery and do:
Code:
fastboot boot recovery.img
Then use misc_version to lower your base version and then you can relock the bootloader, run an older RUU, and use revolutionary.
