Sensation XE Please Help - HTC Sensation

Hello all,
I think i have crewed it all up ...:crying:
A friend gave me his old Sensation XE beats audio phone.
Stock rom was on the phone 4.0.3
Here is the problem...
I wanted to flash a different rom on it and after reading how to unlock etc i finally started.
Unlocked the bootloader using htcdev.com
Installed CMW 5.8.0.9 touch recovery.
Forgot to do the S-OFF
Flashed the rom and got stuck at the rom bootscreen.
Some info:
Unlocked
S-ON RL
HBOOT-1.29.0000
Now i have no backup of original rom and all i have is the original phones boot menu and the CMW.
I really don't know what to do next...
Have searched on XDA but there is so much info that i don't know where to start.
Afraid that i screw it up even more.
Can any of you good folks help me out here please?
I'm really sweating here.
Thanks in advance!

Oops sorry

Thank you all for the fast replies!!
Yes i can get into the bootloader.
I have installed the 4ext recovery and will try to flash a new rom.
Does it matter which rom i take?
I'm waiting for Android Revolution HD 6.8.0 to finish downloading because that was the recommended rom from the tutorial.

If you have unlocked the bootloader through htcdev just follow the instructions at the link below.

That worked for me. It worked on the second try, pretty tricky

Did the same thing

I did the exact same thing first time I changed my ROM (which was 5 days ago on 29.November) but I had backup.
If I didn't have backup I would have used the ROM posted in point 2. of this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1614617
Now I'm with AOKP JB ROM and works far better than the stock

I came from HTC HD2 which was easier do deal with imo.
No s-off bootloader cid.
But i'm glad i could fix this on my Sensation

Enable smart flash in recovery...
If u r trying to flash ics Rom then u required ics firmware 3.33
Sent from my Sensation using xda app-developers app
If you don't already have it please download 4ext recovery. Then you will be able to enable smart flash. Because your S on you must use smart flash every time you flash a rom. Also make sure you have correct firmware as said in above post. Because your s on you must flash a bit differently than us with s off. I'm going to send you a link to flashing roms with s on. Skip down to where it talks about smart flash. This link will also show you how to permanently enable smart flash. Hope this is helpful.

Hi,
What ROM did you try to install?
You are on a GingerBread firmware.
You cannot load any ICS ROMS.
And you cannot change firmware or radio with s-on.
S-off for you would be possible using Revolutioary.
Look HERE

[Q] HTC Sensation with cm9, faux, and ARHD

Hello Guys!
First: Sorry for my worst english, i've learned it only from movies and games.
I dont want to post a new thread, but i cant find the answer for MY question.
I want to install Android Revolution HD for my Sensation Z710e.
My phone is: HTC Sensation Z710e
Android version: 4.0.4
Baseband version: 11.76A.3504.00P_11.24A.3504.31_M
Kernel version: 3.0.42-MSM8660-Sense-Faux123-v009+
Cyanogenmod: CM 9.1.0-pyramid
CWM version: 5.0.2.0
I want to install ARHD, but i dont know, because i cant find any instruction, and i'm afraid that i will brick my phone.
I've found great instructions, but not for my CM9 or my kernel.
Or did i complicates too, and the install is easier than I thought?
So can i install ARHD with CM9 and these settings above, or i need to flash back the stock ICS and kernel? Or simply download ARHD files, and flash with CMW, and it works?
Please help me if you can, and i'm really sorry if someone already wrote that problem and got the correct answer.
Thank thank thank thank you!!!

S-ON or S-OFF?
also i suggest you to flash 4ext recovery.it is better than cwm
You could always flash an RUU and start from scratch. It will keep you s-off'ed if you already are, will put a matching radio and firmware. From there you can follow the instructions on the ARHD page.

don't tell me that you really start with ruu?
ruu returns your device into completely stock situation as you bought it
if you succeded with flashing a ruu then you have to flash a recovery,root the device and then choose to flash a custom rom

Some noob questions...

Hello first i want to thanks all the people that put hard work on the guides for S Off, Hboot, Root, Recovery, Firmwares, etc...

With the phone locked but with S Off and HBoot 1.23 and recovery ext4 wich roms can i install? Wanted to install elegancia but without the new firmware cant go there.... And how can i find the stock rom that im using? Is from china i think, but i speak spanish and the rom is only english mandarin and cantonese... If someone can help me thx... Please excuse my bad english...

when you flashed 3.32fw or 3.3fw then you had to install an ics or jelly bean rom
an older rom won't boot with these fw versions

[Q] Messed up big time and now confused

So on my
HTC Sensation
unblocked
rooted
s-on ( )
I wiped and installed LeeDroid and after that all was good apart from the wifi had error, so like a fool i did the first thing I understood this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1715697
basically installed the LeeDrOiD Shooter - GSM Kernel V5.4 Final
after that was done I got in a boot loop :crying:
I just thought lets restore from a backup but didnt realise that wouldn't restore the Kernel
I have been looking for a stock one to start fresh and start from my backup
PLEASE can someone point me in the right direction as all these kernels are so confusing, even if I can do the following
restore or go back to LeeDroid with the correct kernel for the wifi fix and loop fix :crying:
stressing here big time lol
hi,
see here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1631861
in few steps:
flash 4ext recovery
enable smartflash from it

Hi
What recovery are you using?
If you're S-on you need 4ext recovery and enable smart flash there before flashing a new rom.
Also in what hboot version are you? 1.27? 1.33?
Let us know.
Good luck

[Q] Asking how to s-off

Hello everyone,
I have an Htc Sensation XE hboot 1.29.0000 which is unlocked bootloader and rooted.
Now I want to install cyanogenmod and I need s-off. But when I search online, the only thing I saw how to s-off is to do the wire trick.
I don't want to do s-off in terms of hardware.
Is there any way to s-off using any softwares like last time we did in gingerbread?
Please reply me at least whether yes or no! I will be looking forward to the replies.
Thanks,
Phyo Aung Khant.

You dont need S-Off just to flash custom ROM. You just need Unlocked bootloader and 4EXT Recovery to flash custom ROM being S-On. And for S-Off, the wire trick is the only method to achieve S-Off with 1.2X hboots

Now the recovery I got is ClockworkMod Recovery Touch v5.8.0.9
Last time I flashed the Cyanogenmod Zip from the ClockworkMod Recovery, it stopped during the boot stage.
As you two said, if I use 4ext recovery, that problem will be gone, right?
So can you post any link to tutorials or videos to install 4ext recovery?
And also I don't know what is smartflash.
Please explain to me.
Thanks,
