Phone shuts down after installing new rom

Until today I was using HyperSensation 3.0, decided to try a new ROM and choose BADOSP V 1.1 to test. After back-up/wipe cache-dalvik/format all partitions/installing ROM/reboot. The phone booted normally until the lockscreen showed up, then, immediately shutted down. Powering on again was met with the same results.
I did the process of wiping, formating and installing again in case I forgot something, and again the same thing happened. I tried with another ROM, this time with ViperS 1.0.1, and I got the same thing, power off after the lockscreen shows for the first time. Before restoring the back up, I tried installing again HyperSensation 3.0 and it works... As a last resort I installed a gingerbread RUU to start totally stock, and again... power off in the same place...
I reinstalled 4ext, updated the firmware again to 3.33 and restored my back up to have a functional phone again, but I cannot understand why is this happening.
Can someone out there chime in and help me with this?
Thanks in advance.

Yes, I flashed super wipe but forgot about the kernel part. I'll try that now. With what Sense o Maniac your solution worked, Sense 3.6 or 4.0?

I tried with both Sense ROMs. Super Wipe/Install ROM with everything stock/Flash Kernel/Reboot but that didn't work either.

Anyone have more ideas to know why this is happening? I'm lost...

Yes, I check them and they are correct.

reflash the firmware then if you are using 3.32 reflash it or update it to 3.33

I'm in 3.33 already... I even installed a gingerbread RUU to start from stock and the same thing happened.

then the only culprit left is recovery ..
try reflashing it or ..update it to 1.0.0.5 RC (also can you check if you enabled smartflash (in 4EXT -> tools) ..coz that some times messes up for SOFF devices and make sure smartflash is disabled )

Sensation XE Please Help

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.

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

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

It's normal, because to install updated from HTC you need stock recovery. If you really want the update(latest has sense 3.6) you should flash stock recovery.
I suggest you try some custom ROMs, they are much better than stock in every possible way. Try ViperS and you won't get disappointed. It has sense 4.1 and sense 4.5 components with android 4.04
Edit: To flash Viper you need 4ext recovery

Okay, and how do i install that instead?

You can get 4ect recovery here or even on the market. Once you download the app just follow the instructions. If your s off do NOT enable smart flash, that's only for s on. It's pretty straight forward. Hope this helps. Best wishes.

[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
flash the rom

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
