So.. The other day I rooted my htc sensation perfectly, and gained super user access, S-off and all that stuff to root.
So I flashed a MIUI rom onto the phone which worked perfectly.
Today I tried to flash the Virtuos Quattro ROM onto my phone and it didn't work. So I cleared the cache, user data, and all that, but every time I tried to flash the rom it came up with an error.
(At this point when I turned the phone on , it when in a boot loop..l unless I went into recovery mode.) so I tried to restore the MiUI ROM and it wouldn't work anymore..
So I formatted the system and still no luck. Formatted the SD card and no luck.
However, after doing all of that, I lost the MIUi ROM, have no way of getting to a home screen, and I don't know how to get back either to my stock rom or to the MIUI rom.
It still says I'm S-off.. But I have no clue how to get back to either my stock rom ( because I have no idea where to find it) which is what I want to do again
Have I deleted the stock rom?
Is there a way to get back to the stock rom in this case? Or what should I do?!?
In desperate need of help guys!!
Cheers

Download a Rom to your computer the go to recovery and mount sdcard plug the phone to your computer and put the Rom to your phone from your computer if this doesn't work use another phone and put your sdcard in that phone and put the Rom from your computer to your sdcard
If you've formatted the sd card, without making a backup of the stock nandroid on the computer, you've lost that.
Search here for stock sensation ROMs for your carrier (pretty much what you had before you started flashing ROMs) and, if you do want to go back to stock, follow the instructions to flash it. Then follow step 5 here *CAREFULLY* to get s-on and stuff again (if you're wanting to go that far).
I'd personally recommend trying to flash ARHD or something, a ROM that has been flashed by a lot of people - trouble free, again by following the instructions carefully. It could maybe just be something as simple as you got a bad download (always check md5 # to be on the safe side - and to ensure that stuff like this doesn't happen.)
Once you've rooted there's not really much cause for going back to stock, as most custom ROMs are edited to perfection for speed and efficiency.

Hi there,
I've been flashing roms for more than one year now and never had a problem before (I never did a Nandroid backup )
I was using the Virtuous Inquisomething for the past month but I decided to try the Quattro version. Finding it too laggy, I decided to go back to the Inquisi... But problem, after flashing it, my phone keebs rebooting... Htc logo, shows the V logo (sometimes doesn't), black out, then restarts again. I tried different roms, HD Revolution, Light Rom, even the Quattro that I had before but my phone keeps rebooting. I flashed the Firmware to the 3.30, same thing. I wiped the dalvik cache, the cache and everything I could wipe but I have the same problem !
I tried to flash an original file, a Ruu but my computer can't find my phone because I can only access the ToggleUSB via the recovery
Do you guys know how to fix this? Anyone has a Nandroid Backup that I can use? (Tmobile - Sensation 4G? )
Thank you in advance
Curiously, have you ever superwiped your Sensation while doing all these flashes? There might be some residual files here and there that's just causing chaos inside the phone. D:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1098849 Here's the link for ARHD's original thread which has the superwipe down toward the bottom of the first post under "Downloads" and you just flash it like any other file through the 4EXT touch recovery (if you're using that!).
Flash latest firmware.
Download and flash latest ARHD Rom.
Problem solved let me know if anything goes wrong

Thanks for replying. I did exactly what you guys said but... same error... Boots, write HTC ... Quietly brillant and boots again !
I even formatted my Sd Card :/ !
Anyone has a Nandroid Backup?
I see that you only updated to 3.30 firmware. Try updating to the final firmware 3.32 and superwipe before flashing a new rom.

Are you trying to flash this to an Inspire? And you posted 2 different links. Which one is it? If you're flashing an Inspire, why wouldn't you just use the Inspire version here:

As pazzo02 told you, you can´t flash a rom for the HTC ONE X. You should use the CoreDroid multi device for the Inspire / DHD....It works great as It has been my ROM for the last couple of months.

Hello experts,
Yesterday I tried to root my HTC Sensation XE! First I unlocked this device using the htcdev then u found this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1668276 and i followd the instructions and finished. In the HBOOT menu this device is still listed as S-ON but i downloaded the Rootchecker app and it confirms that the device is routed.
I am trying to update to the jellybean 4.1.2 using this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1782009.
The cyogenmod bootscreen is stuck loading over 10min so i assumed that i am doing something wrong, so i restored it to the original ROM using clockworks.
If someone has any ideas please feel free to comment and remark.
Thanks =)
Use 4ext with smart flash on,
What it seems to me is with clock work it doesn't write the boot IMG. With that being said it would be stuck in a boot loop.

Then i select the install from sd > chose the zip.
i select the CM10 zip and install it and after i select the gaps too.
reboot the phone.
When rebooting the phone stucks the cyanogenmod boot screen
Okay. I had this same problem you are having when I first started getting familiar with flashing ROMs.
If you correctly installed 4ext recovery, go into your settings and select "smart flash on" this will allow you to flash a ROM correctly with out having your s-off. Try that and let me know.

When you flash another rom.. You should do full wipe aka 4EXT - wipe / format - format all partitions except sdcard
Then flash cm10 rom.. You will come out fine

You have to compile the kernel first but dont do it. Dont u have nandroid backup of your stock ROM? If u dont have it then search for guide to install RUU on the index in development section

It is my sincerest advice not to overclock...it will heat up your phone..it will cause force closes and most of all it reduces life of your processor..!
I was having same problem.
All you have to do is
1)reboot in recovery
2)wipe/factory reset
3)flash with desired rom
4)wipe/factory reset (you have to do this again )
5) restart your phone
That's it !!!
Hit thanks if I helped you

Let me guess. You didn't partition your sdcard. Sense 4 needs a minimum 512 MB ext2/3/4(4 recommended) partition to work.
