your problem is that you have gingerbread firmware running
which means that in ics or jelly bean rom can't boot
you have to upgrade your firmware first.see here

Hi. I don't think it's brick'd.
Well, I finally didn't know fastboot did its job or did it fail?!
Anyway, s-off won't revert to s-on, so you still have it. In this case, you should be able to change your hboot and things; download this file, put in root of your SD, boot into bootloader and confirm the update using the volume up key.

By the way, what kinda bootloop do you encounter? Splashscreen or thw ROM bootanimation?

you have to be on S-OFF again in order to use that pg58img.zip file from bootloader
what to do now is unlock your bootloader again

(If you haven't) unlock your bootloader, flash a recovery (I recommend 4ext) and do a full system wipe except sdcard. Then flash a rom that you have tried before anew and see what happens. And don't worry, it's real hard to brick s-on phones.

you have bootloop because your rom is gingerbread and now you have ics firmware
just flash an ics or jb rom from recovery
make a nandroid first just in case

did you use the one from the link that Mile_zdr provided you?

since you are on S-OFF you don't need to unlock the bootloader
but if you flash the 3.33 universal firmware that Mile_zdr told you you will have also a patched hboot which is unlocked

Boot loop, No recovery. help needed :(

hi guys, ill try and keep it as brief as poss.
Phone was rooted working fine, dropped the phone and cracked the screen so sent for repair. Repair shop returned it back to stock :/
Left phone stock and working fine for a couple of months, accidentally let phone fully discharge and think it damaged the battery. Bought a new battery but the phone just boot loops. Can get into Hboot but when i choose recovery it just starts boot looping again. In a panic i flashed a 3.33 firmware but made no difference. Can someone give me a step by step how to sort? thanks!!
Phone says :
-firmware- 3.33-
pyramid pvt ship s-off rl
hboot 1.27.1100
emmc-boot
Im guessing its also locked because when i do the oem lock in command prompt its saying device is locked. cheers all.

If i connect fastboot-usb and use the command prompt to flash a recovery i get (error-partition doesnt exist!!)
Can i put any recovery on the sd card and somehow load it without using the recovery option?

Thanks mile_zdr. My Bad. Looks like it wrote ok (writing "recovery" ... OKAY) when i reboot and choose recovery option it still boot loops. :/ maybe im flashing the wrong recovery? Should any sensation recovery work?
Edit : Just flashed the sensation clockwork mod recovery successfully but still getting the boot loop when i hit recovery in the boot loader.

i think your only option now is to flash a ruu.exe
then try again with recovery

Thank you so much guys, think im beggining to understand it now. I have 1 more massive favour. Im struggling to find the right ruu for my phone, can someone point me in the right direction please?
since you are on S-OFF change your cid to supercid and choose any ruu you want
also remove your imei and serial number
don't show them in public
but i noticed something else
how in the hell you have ics hboot version with gingerbread firmware?

Thats a very good question rzr86 I think i have found the right ruu but i could only find one with a firmware base of 1.73 and my phone is currently 3.33. does it matter or will have to somehow downgrade my firmware to match the ruu?

I found the stock rom for my phone, double clicked the .exe and it went through all the loading process and installed the stock ruu onto my phone but the problem i started with is still there. If i turn the phone on it just goes to the htc logo and then reboots. If i hold power + vol down then pick recovery it does the exact same boot loop. thanks for your help!! :good:
