[Q] Can Anyone please help..Wifi error on HTC Sensation - HTC Sensation

please help me I have HTC Sensation Z710e
I used to have the 3.33 version software and Hboot 1.27.1111, so I used the Juopnetbear method for S-OFF
Here's a link to it:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1614617
I did the htcdev method to unlock the bootloader and it worked flawlessly(the device had no errors after reboot)
But when I flashed 3.32 stock ROM(which is required for the control bear method to work), there was a Wifi error . I thought this was a temporary glitch and it will go away after I install another ROM..
So I proceeded to S-OFF using the wire trick
Now when I installed a custom ROM it read Wifi error...
I looked into many posts and tried different methods but nothing worked..
PLEASE SAVE ME!!!
CUSTOM ROM is Ordroid V9.0.0

maybe in your case is unecessary but it worths the try
flash the boot.img of the rom manually
see here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1631861 (only extra 1 step) or
do a full wipe and reflash the rom

Reflashing is maybe the only thing you could do
Or try flashing the radio

I did that and it didn't work however I flashed a different ROM (HyperNonSense) and now it's working

How exactly do I flash the radio?sorry for all the questions..I did find a ROM that solved the problem and I noticed that it had a stock kernel..does that mean that I can never flash a ROM with a custom kernel? WTF to that:banghead:
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using xda app-developers app

You can flash a matching kernel if your So Off. And you can flash a radio if your S off. Here is how. This is how I flash my radio. The radio file is a pg58img file. It must continue to be named pg58img, nothing added to the name. Place the pg58img file at root of SD card. Do this by coping the file from your computer to your device. Then once file is placed on root of SD card pull battery, put battery back in, press volume down and power, the device will recognise the file and ask to update, power for yes. Once the update is finished you MUST remove the pg58img file from root of SD card or when in bootloader the device will continue to try to update over and over and over. So make sure to delete the pg58img file when finished. That's it. That's how you update the radio. I suggest you read on the radio site how to update because if your unsure of any steps you can brick your device. So I'm going to attach a link for updating radio. There are a couple ways to do it. I think this way is easiest. But do read the directions so everything is clearly understood. Hope this helps you. Here is the radio link with instructions http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1202867

[RESOLVED] ics firmware did update hboot, didn't flashed radio

Hey guys,
any ideas on this.
I used the PG58IMG.zip with the new firmware update for only the hboot and radio. The hboot was flashed, i'm now on "locked" 1.20.... but the radio "11.." wasn't flashed. Now i'm having issues with some dialer stuff and net connectivities. So my guess is i need to flash the new radio file.
The thing is i can't flash the radio anymore. fastboot won't work on this new hboot, and i can't use the PG58IMG files anymore.
When trying to use a PG58IMG file, i'm getting the cid error.
RESOLVED:
fastboot cid commands still work on hboot 1.20, just get your phone into hboot, and try supercid, this worked for me.
Have you tried doing it with Flashboot ? In the command window typing the flash command, it should be unzipped into a clean folder at your system disk root (C...

i'm switching between all options, but it is known that hboot 1.20... doesn't support fastboot yet, so that's something else.
for now i'm back to gingerbread, but i really liked ics, let's hope somebody will find a way to use fastboot on 1.20...
give it a try put downloaded zip on root of sd card go into bootloader and phone should see file and flash.
this is just what i have read on the ICS firmware thread.

yeah it sees the update, it's trying to auto install, can't choose yes or no, it's just scanning for the PG files and when it's trying to install the zip file it stops with a incorrect cid error.
install complete ruu (released by rc team), that'll install everything including radio, after that install any custom ICS rom you like, i found this method safest.
be sure to super cid your phone.

Well, you can always unlock the bootloader with htcdev. Then you can use fastboot again.

Here's some advice. I was having the same problem you were. What I realized was that I was unable to check my cid or use fastboot options because I was running a ics Rom which breaks fastboot. I'm tmous and my cid wasn't in firmware by default. So after trying to flash the update I ended up with the updated hboot 1.20 that said locked (supposedly just says locked but really isnt) I kept reading every page of the firmware thread and I found someone who added the tmous cid to the firmware update and posted a drop box link which worked like a charm. I reflashed that one and now I have new radio and firmware and my phone is much smoother. Hopefully this works for you as it sounds like exactly what I went thru. Going to go find you the link now
Edit* here you go, let me know how it works out

Htc sensation semi brick

HI ALL
I have a massive problem with my htc sensation xe. My phone is a t-mobile sensation xe.This is what i have done to it i unlocked the boot loader from the htc dev website. I then rooted it using super click one. I then installed clockworkmod recovery. I then tryed to flash a leedroid rom to my phone and my phone would always restart after the htc logo.
I tryed to flash many other roms but same result, phone would either freeze or continuosly reset.
Can somebody help me please. I have attached a picture of my recovery screen as this is the only thing i have access to.
Thanks In Advance
And what happens when you choose an option from there?
try
fast reboot
factory reset
Try going back to the thread for you rom read, reread and reread agan,
Then follow the instructions 100% and as if by magic........................
I have been assisting this person on the sensation forum he was originally rooted with ship s off however he installed a Rom and apprantly his hboot has changed.
He has tried to change Rom but his phone is boot looping with the HTC logo and as you can see he his picture he is back to ship on.
I provided a list of ruu but he's phone fails while attempting to run application.
He has tried resetting phone through recovery and clearing data,cache,formatting system.
He explained he tried to root following the current 4 methods but still no sucess.
I advised him to seek help on here.

I done as you told me
1.)I went into recovery and clicked factory reset
2.)I then clicked wipe cache partition
3.)I then clicked wipe davlik cache
4.)I then clicked fix permissions
5.)I then tryed to install the shipped t-mobile rom
It did not work
6.)I also tryed to install another custom rom same problem. The phone would hang on the htc logo boot up screen.
I have included pictures to make it easier to assess the problem
I don't think flashing a Rom will get you back to s-on. From your pictures I noticed you're trying to downgrade from ICS to GB, no? If you have the ICS firmware (3.06), how come you have hboot 1.18 s-on? Either there's something missing in your explanation or you really have messed up the software. Anyway, why don't you cross referenced what you've done with this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=16125079

I want my phone to work wetaher with original rom or custom rom.
This is what i done.
1.)I went onto htc.dev and unlocked my bootloader
2.)I used super click one to root my phone and gain super user access
3.)I then installed rom manger and clockwork recovery to my phone.
4.)I then used rom manger to download leedroid rom for my phone and installed it.
This is were it all went wrong. My phone would continuosly restart and not let be do anything. If i installed any other custom rom through recovery myphone would freeze at the htc screen untill i removed the battery.
Somebody please help i do not want to send it into htc and pay £60 odd pound
Have you tried to select fastboot from hboot, connect to a pc and run the ruu from there?
I have run into the same problem with Sensation 4G (TMO).
Here's what I did:
1. Tried revolutionary to gain s-off - and it failed
2. Unlocked phone with HTC (so my hboot scren says "Unlocked")
3. Flashed recovery
4. Flashed Android Revolution HD™ 6.5.1 | ICS |
Now stuck in a boot loop (with HTC logo on white background). Tried multiple RUUs, none of them worked (including the latest one from T-Mobile).
No luck resurrecting device so far.
weird. ive used revolutionary 3 different times to gain s-off and have never had it fail. i would give it another shot and be extra careful and follow the instructions to a T.

I've tried firmware from thread you are suggesting (cid and mid matched). Hboot does recognize the zip on sd card, parses it and takes me to normal menu. Nothing else happens. I verified that my cid and mid match androidinfo.txt in zip file.
Any other clues?
I've also tried flashing "boot loop" at the bottom of the same post, but HBOOT keeps doing the same: loads zip, parses it, shows regular menu. Nothing else.
Other option is to supercid your device if you can.... Makes your device more flexible...

@paul.turchenko, the firmware will not flash as HTC.dev unlock only unlocks part of your bootloader. Radio and boot images (included in each fw package) will not flash unless you have s-off.
Have you tried to relock the bootloader then run a gingerbread ruu? Try to match the baseband, software version, carrier, area etc. as closely as you can to your original setup.

AWESOME!
Thanks to post above I successfully unbricked my Sensation 4G.
For those who stuck with the same problem:
Symptoms:
HBOOT:
*UNLOCKED*
S-ON
1.18
Solution: use tool from post above (can't post links) and lock bootloader back. After that your HBOOT will show
*RELOCKED*
S-ON
1.18
After this, phone will accept RUU (which failed before with *UNLOCKED* bootloader).
RUU:
RUU_Pyramid_TMOUS_1.50.531.1_Radio_10.56.9035.00U_10.14.9035.01_M_release_223976_signed

Firmware 3.24.401.1 Problems

Fixed!!
The firmware can work in the T-mob010 as long as you install ARHD 6.1.0 as well. Its a bit tricky because of the bootloop problem. But here's what I did
Boot into Recovery; mount USB;
Copy all three files (ARHD 6.1.0, AR-Swipe, PG58IMG.zip) to phone root.
Run AR-Swipe, phone will reboot into recovery
Run ARHD 6.1.0,
Reboot into bootloader
Click bootloader and hit the up volume to install firmware
First boot takes about 5 minutes
Some people said they didn't use AR-swipe and it was like an update, but I like clean installs. Good Luck
Ive tried searching for the links to download the 3 files mentioned above, i can only locate the PG58IMG file, within the list of the different firmwares. Can you post links to the rest so i can test this method? im anxious to try it out.

[Q] Noob Help - Wrong HBOOT

Folks, I have been through a million different forums and tried a million and a half things to get my phone to stop looping.
Here it is, (I should not have tried this due to my noob factor)
I have tried to install ICS insertcoin 5.1.7
I followed the guide to s-off - successful. Now it goes downhill and the details are foggy to say the least.
I am stuck with a bootloop and Model ID incorrect!
Here are the details:

So my question is, can someone please provide me with a walkthrough on how I can fix this. I know I'm not asking much can you please provide direct links for files I will need to download. I also want to try and avoid ADB as even looking at the forum about this frightens me.
Fingers crossed im not 100% bricked.

My Hboot is 1.27 too.
but it doesn't matter.
I suggest you try the ARHD6.5 rom ( don't try the newest two, just v6.5.3 is ok.) .
Were you on GB ROM when you tried to flash to ICS? Also, it looks like an incomplete firmware flash. Based on what it's reading in H Boot, you have a GB radio and that should not be. Did you make a backup before you started?

The backup failed... apparently.
So if it is an incomplete firmware flash, is it possible to just start the entire process again?
You can get the ice firmware from the thread linked in the first post in opensensation thread. Sorry I can't post links. Its the suggested firmware do. Flash that then wipe and install your rom. Ics will not boot on gb Firmware
You need to slowly step up to the ICS ROM, You can't flash from GB straight to ICS. Reflash firmware. Power off, remove battery put back in battery boot into fastboot, when it asks if you want to update choose yes, it will go through the update process, it wil flash off and back on, it's normal, it's still updating. When it's done it will say press power to reboot, do not reboot, scroll down to power off. Remove your battery and sd card and put your pc card in a reader on your pc. Delete PM58IMG zip from the card. Place the ICS ROM you want to flash onto sd card. Safely remove card from pc. Put sd card into phone, replace battery, boot into recovery and flash ROM.

Did you do supercid?
I forgot when I first rooted then when I flashed ics firmware I got a message like yours.
Follow the advice in my reply here ...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1571301
.... to make sure you have the correct fastboot drivers installed then follow the link in my reply to the rooting thread and follow step 4 (I think) with your phone in fastboot USB mode to get supercid.
You should then be able to flash gb or ics firmware followed by a gb or ics Rom
Good luck....
Hi,
try to reinstall the firmware from here. If your phone is broken, you will obviously need to put the stuff on the mem card manually.
If your phone is compatible that should work out of the box. If your CID is not on that list, you will need to follow their workaround and add it to the list in android-info.txt.

flashing radio.

hey there. Just another noob question:
How can I find out what radio am I using? Can I flash the PG zip archive in recovery just like I flash the kernel? If so, do I always need to do that when I install roms? Is the radio included in the rom? I think of it as like firmware or recovery, you have to flash the lastest when it was released and that's about it, it does not get wiped when you go to format all parititions, right?
How about firmware? Can I flash this too in recovery? Thx.
To flash firmware you place the pg58img file at the root of sd card , then you boot into bootloader by pulling battery putting battery back in press volume and power at the same time, it will recognise the update and ask to continue press power for yes, let it update them REMOVE the pg58img file from your card or it will continuously try to update the file! I remove mine by pulling the sd card and put in a card reader and delete the file. Delete it how ever you want just make sure you delete it ok. Then your done. That's how you install firmware. Hope I helped.

hey there. Just another noob question:
How can I find out what radio am I using? Can I flash the PG zip archive in recovery just like I flash the kernel? If so, do I always need to do that when I install roms? Is the radio included in the rom?

Hi,
To check radio, go to:
Settings/ about phone/ software information/ more/ baseband version.
Radio gets installed with the firmware.
It does not need to be flashed with every ROM.
Yes, it gets flashed in recovery.
It does not get wiped when you wipe the partitions.
Be very careful when flashing radio or firmware.
Always check the md5 checksum
If you flash the wrong one, or a bad one, it will brick your phone.
So i can flash firmware in 4ext right? If it is wrong... should i get any warning message? Thx

Hi,
Yes, you can.
What firmware do you have, and what firmware do you want to flash?
Sent telepathically from my pyramid
Hi to flash firmware I usually put the firmware on the root of my sd card and flash from bootloader by pulling battery putting battery back in, pressing volume and power at the same time, the device will recognise the update and ask to continue, press power for yes. Once it's updated don't forget to REMOVE the pg58img file from the sd card or it will continue to try to update over and over . So when its finished just delete the file of your sd card. I use a card reader to do this. I just pop out my sd put into card reader and plug into computer and delete the file then put card back into device . But if you don't have a card reader its ok just delete the file however you can. Then your good to go. Hope this helps some . This is how I do my firmware. Best wishes.

Do I have to be S-OFF to flash these two updates? I'm htcdev unlocked but S-ON and I don't want the wire trick s-off.
tried flashing radio in recovery, by installing the PG zip file but got installation aborted.

yep for radio and hboot change you require SOFF ..when you are SON but HTC-DEV unlocked ..you can only change roms and recovery ..you cant modify firmware
so that's why it would not work... i'll stick with s-on for now since 3.32 works fine for me for all roms... ill get soff when most roms will reqire newer firmware... i dint really wanna do wire trick to get full root.. is there another way of getting this on 1.27 hboot? Thx ganesh..

Hboot radio
Rather than start a new thread I thought I would just expand this one.
My query is:
Bootloader on my phone is showing
HBOOT 1.27.1100
RADIO 11.24A.3504.31_M
(Rev S-OFF) got this from flashing universal 3.33 by mike
I wanted to know is this the latest radio I need for jellybean roms? I am having the Wi-F- turning on issues
I see some of them mention Radio_11.76A? Is this the full name for the radio above?
I have pushed this through Fastboot ADB so am I on the right one?
I have also pushed the Boot.img from each rom and updated to Faux latest kernels but none of this seems to solve the wifi issues

yep you have proper radio (or rather you can check it in settings -> about- phone -> baseband )
try some sense rom and see whether you got any wifi error or not

I have tried flashing ARHD and Ordroid 9 again but same issues even after superwipe and formatting SD card (full format on windows not quick)
Loads of posts about these wifi issues - Only occured whenever I flashed latest Viper ROM but thats just me, others getting them on other roms mainly ICS / Jellybean

As long as the radio starts with 11 (11.24A, 11.76A etc) it is ICS compatible
I would still update to the latest radio (11.76A) available here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1202867
And then do a full wipe of all partitions through 4EXT (don't use superwipe, causes problems) and reinstall ARHD.

he is having 11.76A Radio only ..in bootloader only the last part of the radio name is shown ..(for full name of RADIO ..check the Radio/Ril thread you've linked )
in settings ->about phone ->software info->baseband ..complete radio name will be shown (this path is for sense roms ..and it might be same for AOSP/CM9/CM10 roms too i think)

Serves me right for skimming
Thanks guys
WiFi is on but disconnects after a few mins inactivity
Have to switch it off and back on again to pick up the connection again
It authenticates and connects then disconnects after a short period of time
At least Im getting somewhere
Currently on latest CM10 Kang ROM (14 Aug b version)
