[Q] Help with stuck logo & reboots.

I have a HTC sensation which I am trying to fix.
It was working fine and then did an OTA update and it would not boot again and would lock up on the HTC logo with a white background.
I did manage to unlock the phone, but it is still S-ON because I am unable to get into the phone normally to get revolutionary to detect the phone correctly because it cant find the phone in recovery mode.
I managed to get EXT4 recovery image installed which helped me flash the rom to cyanogenmod 10.1 but it will reboot every 5 seconds after it loads into the menu.
I did a super wipe and installed ARHD but it only gets to the beats audio logo before restarting.
I was unable to find the correct stock rom or the RUU because the CID is TELNZ which doesn't seem to have many stock rom files around.
I believe that if I can find the RUU_PYRAMID_TELNZ then it will help me fix the device, but I can't find it on the net.
I tried to write a super CID so I could flash any rom to it but it doesn't work:
C:\AndroidSDK\sdk\tools>fastboot oem writecid 11111111
...
(bootloader) vreg_set: request is duplicated id 14
(bootloader) pyramid_init_sd, SD card power on ok
(bootloader) sdcc_init_memory_device done
(bootloader) [FAT_ERROR] fat_open_file: can not find SMART_IO.CRD
(bootloader) [JAVACARD_ERR] SMART_IO.CRD cann't find
I tried to manually update the phone with (I had to edit the file and add TELNZ*** to it):
C:\AndroidSDK\sdk\tools>fastboot flash zip PG58IMG.zip
sending 'zip' (14242 KB)...
OKAY [ 3.087s]
writing 'zip'...
(bootloader) signature checking...
FAILED (remote: 12 signature verify fail)
I also tried to put PG58IMG.zip on the SD card but the phone fails to update from the image with no error after it finishes "checking" the file.
Here is the info that I have gathered from the device:
Model: HTC sensation z710a
version: 0.5
version-bootloader: 1.18.0000
version-baseband: 10.14.9035.02_2
version-cpld: None
version-microp: None
version-main: 1.50.781.1
product: pyramid
platform: HBOOT-8260
modelid: PG5811000
cidnum: TELNZ001
battery-status: good
battery-voltage: 3912mV
partition-layout: Generic
security: on
build-mode: SHIP
boot-mode: FASTBOOT
commitno-bootloader: 9d24123f
hbootpreupdate: 11
gencheckpt: 0
What I am hoping to do is to get the device S-OFF and install ARHD Sensation 7.3 or a working install of cyanogenmod 10.1.
If anyone could offer me any help, that would be greatly appreciated.
**update 1**
I have found the reason that the roms are restarting constantly.
Basically the 1.18 HBOOT version I have is too low and causing issues.
I need to update to 3.33 but the revolution tool cant get root, so I am trying to use the Tacoroot method to try and get revolution to work.
The issue I am now facing is that I cant get past the first step because of this error: "failed to copy 'tacoroot.bin' to '/data/local/tacoroot.bin': Permission denied"

I am unable to follow this guide because I am still S-ON, I'm trying to get S-OFF but revolutionary is not working and neither will the tacoroot method.

Yeah i forgot that device you mention your device is still S-ON and that's why i removed my abov post but you can still flash GB RUU.. let me find..

You're s-on... Then you must flash boot.img of the ROM you're trying to flash, using fastboot commands:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
Then immediately reboot.

Thanks.
To go into greater detail, does this mean that I need to download hTC-Stock-FirmWare-3.33.401.6 (HBOOT-1.29.0000+boot.img+Radio+Recovery+etc.) and manually flash the boot.img via CMD?
What I have managed to do so far is run superwipe and install SENSEaY_XE35_v2.1.0 which is a modified GB rom.
I tried to then run the revolutionary method to get S-OFF but it always just corrupted the rom.
I also tried the tacoroot method but that corrupted the rom as well.
So for now I'm just leaving it with SENSEaY_XE35_v2.1.0 installed since that is the only thing that works and seems to be stable on the phone.

[Q] Stuck at HTC logo after failed stock update

Heyy, so i was wondering if yous could help me. I have a stock HTC Sensation EU, t-mobile version, which I had updated to the latest version (4.0.3 I think). During the upgrade-process something went wrong and now it doesn't go past the HTC logo. S-ON. When in Hboot it shows no found something.img. What is the way to fix this?
If possible I'd like to root it as well and use the Cyanogenmod.

So it worked, but it didn't. I managed to install a custom rom, but after 10 seconds (if it even was that much), the system crashes and reboots, only to do the same thing again.
I used a RUU as well but I got a signing error (132) when using the RUU. I then tried installing the RUU through fastboot and I got further. I did however got the error saying the CID wasn't matching. In the .txt file from the zip I had added my CID, So I thought it had to work.
There is no official rom for my cid (T-MOB003) unfortunately.
This is starting to give me a headache

I have read that once, but I'll do it again; this time more thorougly.
The RUU I'm trying to install is RUU_PYRAMID_ICS_HTC_Europe_3.32.401.5_Radio_11.69.3504.00U_11.22.3504.07_M_release_246089_signed

Since my cidnum is not in the RUU, (and there isn't a RUU for my cid) I'll have to add it according to the guide. I'll get to that later. hboot version to install and version-main are both higher than currently installed, so that shouldn't be an issue.
My phone is S-ON, but unlocked so I'll have to relock it again. Followed instructions and device is *** RELOCKED ***. Displays, however, a security warning. I'll now proceed with the installation by executing the exe. If I'm right I should see an error.
Error: Customer ID incorrect, as expected. I'll now try to install manually.
Since my CID is different I'll change it in the .zip. 7z didn't allow me to change it in the archive itself so I've extracted the archive, changed android-info.txt to:
Code:
modelid: PG5813000
cidnum: HTC__001
cidnum: HTC__E11
cidnum: HTC__N34
cidnum: HTC__203
cidnum: HTC__102

cidnum: HTC__304
cidnum: HTC__032
cidnum: HTC__016
cidnum: T-MOB003
mainver: 3.32.401.5
hbootpreupdate:12
DelCache:1
Note: When pasting this my CID was placed on the same line as mainver. Inserted an enter and repasted in android-info.txt.
What I did as well was unlock the bootloader again, changed recovery to the file inside the rom.zip, and relocked the bootloader. I read this was a fix for the problem.

Nope. I gave up fot the day because I couldn't het the PG58IMG flashed. It didn't have an effect in hboot so I tried using fastboot but i got an unknown error. The tries installing ViperS 2.0, which succeeded. On boot, however, the system crashed and rebooted automatically, just like the other rom's i've tried.

actually if you are still on gingerbread firmware you can't boot any ics or jb rom
flash this rom from recovery

if you still want to upgrade to ics then S-OFF the device from here

after that flash 3.33 universal from here

Flashed it using Cwm, first did a full wipe and it installed fine. It then booted en got to a black screen and rebooted. Wiping Dalvik cache + /cache didn't work as a solution.
Same thing as any other .zip I've installed through recovery.

Then just flash the zips from one of the following releases:

[Q] Wi-Fi and Bluetooth error :(

Hi everyone, i'm new at this forum and i have very strange problem with my HTC Sensation.
My friend bought this phone, everything was ok. He unlocked bootloader with HTCdev, flashed CWM and some CM10.1 ROM (and Gapps). Wifi and Bluetooth stopped working. In settings, the switches at wifi and bluetooth was gray. If i open wifi, there was something like "Turning on..." (bluetooth was the same).
Then he gave this phone to me. I wanted to solve this problem. I flashed many ROMs, for example this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2530073 . I tried Wifix, not working. I flashed 4EXTRecovery and tried SmartFlash. I tried flash stock ICS ROM (about 400MB zip), still not working. Then i successful do S-OFF by Juopunut. I have HBOOT-1.27.1111, RADIO-11.25A-3504.13_M.
Please, can anyone help me? :crying:

Can you get into the bootloader? If you can, you can flash TWRP recovery via fastboot and flash a custom Rom with the recovery.

You've already got the link to my index thread, but it seems you are to lazy to have a look at it. You even only need to watch for the software number and you will easily find what you are searching for.

You can't flash this in recovery. Use TWRP recovery and flash the rom (not the Ota). Links are in my index thread.

Did you also flash boot.img of the rom in fastboot?

Try to do factory reset from bootloader, but nothing happen. After few days looking information I unlock bootloader and try flash new boot, but after that I get Tampered. I found if I must s-off, but how I can get it? My pc found phone only on fastboot mode. Any ideas?

You can't get S-off, without working OS.
You don't have an OS anymore on your phone?
Are you running a custom recovery like TWRP?
Run this fastboot cmd and copy the output here (remove your imei & serial number):
Code:
fastboot getvar all

I flashed TWRP and I make restore, but phone won't start anyway. Maybe need to flash new os?

Flash the stock rom in TWRP, and don't forget to flash boot.img of the rom in fastboot.
Links are in my index thread.
Make a backup in recovery (just in case) and a wipe (advanced -> everything except int & ext sdcard) before.

Something I make wrong. I flashed TWRP, then installed ViperSV, phone restarted and booted TWRP. Then I found boot.img in yours index thead.
Then in fastboot flashed new boot, but phone still booting in TWRP. What I make wrong?

You need to flash the boot.img thats inside the ViperSV.zip, not any from my index thread.

you need a specific hboot to try the rom. i think is 2.15 and you have 1.13.. so..... i think that is the problem.

first of all you'd update all that is possible to lates ver. (hboot, recovery), may be you should try hboot 2.16 and roms for it...

You will need to update HBOOT to version 2.15 or 2.16 depending on which rom you want to install. HTC__304 is Europe/Spain so the Europe RUU should be fine for you. Its pretty easy:
Download FIRMWARE HBOOT 2.15
Extract the included recovery and flash it using fastboot:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Relock your bootloader (in case it's actually locked)
fastboot oem lock
Then flash the firmware215.zip:
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip firmware215.zip
fastboot flash zip firmware215.zip (First time you probably get an error, so just retype the command!!!)
fastboot reboot-bootloader (to get back into bootloader mode)

He's S-On, are you sure it'll work like this? Flashing firmware is not possible unless you're S-Off. He should first try to achieve S-Off via rumrunner or other method (since he's already using Viper or a close-to-stock ROM). Then he might try flashing 2.15/2.16 firmware

I'm sure. Flashing "SIGNED" zips will totally work with S-ON.

I will give it a try , hope I don't get a brick
But I have two questions:
1What you mean "locked" I have my boot loader unlocked!
When I finish the flash process I can unlock again?

You can unlock it at any time, but you will have to lock it before upgrade the firmware.

I'm glad you finally made it. HBOOT 2.16 works with S-OFF only, thats why I uploaded 2.15. As @Rapier mentioned earlier, you can use rumrunner.us for easily getting S-OFF

Mind you that hboot 2.16 gives you shared internal storage. E.g. all free space is available to all partitions. This may come tot be necessary for you if flashing lollipop roms since the "foot print" of installed aps on lollipop becomes much larger. This has to do with runtime environment... Kitkat runs with Dalvik Cache whereas Lollipop runs with the Android Runtime aka ART.
So, staying on hboot 2.15 give you the old partition layout with approx. 1 GByte(??) free for apps and 7 as internal SD.
While hboot 2.16 serves all your free internal storage to all partitions. This saves you headache of internal space for apps running out.
(Someone may deel to fill in the technical gaps i left in)
Cheers , happy hboot 2.16 user.
