[Q] trouble with flashing ROMS - HTC Sensation

Unlocked and flashed twrp on my brothers sensation 4G and flashed a few ROMS, none of them wil go past the boot animation screen. not sure what to do next or what im doing wrong. please help or guide me in the right direction. thanks

When said 'unlocked what exactly do you mean? Is it s-off? Is it HTCDev unlocked?
Bootloops occur when the kernel, firmware and rom do not all match. I would suggest flashing 4ext recovery and marking 'smartflash' option before flashing any roms.
Than flash 3.33 firmware (see my signature).
Later, flash roms. I would suggest starting with ARHD (Android Revolution HD) which is close to stock.
If it goes well you're good to go on other roms.

HTC Sensation 4G

Guys I made a s-off using ControlBear and it crashed!!! so now I can not turn on my phone. Only what can I do is Bootloader and recovery modes. what is the reason of it and is there any solution???
I have requested that a mod move your thread to the Sensation Q&A forum for better device specific assistance.
Did s-off work?
When you say you can get into recovery mode do you mean 4ext or clockworkmod? Or do you mean something else?
If you can get into 4ext or cwm download a new rom and flash it. You should boot right up.
If you can only get to bootloader you can probably update your firmware with a modded version that has a custom recovery included, then proceed to the previous step.
If you need to do the firmware thing you can find all you need in the firmware thread in the development forum.
But....s-off has to have worked in order flash new firmware.
If all else fails you can run an ruu to restore the phone completely to stock and start over.

Hey dude I also failed with JB method and still my sensation is S-ON. You can follow troubleshooting guide at http://unlimited.io/juopunutbear-public-beta-0-1/troubleshooting/
and it really saved my day. Anyways to flash a rom with s-on, simply instal 4EXT recovery and enable SMART-FLASH before installing any rom. It has worked for me

I tried as you said, but still stuck on boot loop. My phone is not S-OFF i think maybe this is the reason. Please help
Can i S-OFF now?
Sounds like you didn't flash the boot.img. first prior to flashing cm10. The boot.img. is different for aosp than sense based roms

Ok then try from recovery format all partitions except sdcard
After enable smartflash
Flash the rom
If that doesn't work too then flash the boot.img of the rom manually
Go to the general section to see how to do it.guide flashing roms with S-ON(see extra 1)
If that fails too then go to development section and search for mikes thread(ARHD thread) it has roms close to stock one
Give it a try
But whatever rom likes to someone else may not like to you.it is objective
Choose the rom that likes to you
I can't send you the links right now because i am using the xda app

[Q] bootloop htc sensation XE, need Help!

I have HTC Sensation XE and a few days ago, i was just tried to install a Custom Rom by CM10. I found a video on Youtube that there only three steps to do that (Flashing a Custom Rom with S-ON)!
1. Unlock Bootloader (and I've done!)
2. Install Recovery (CWM Recovery Touch)
3. Flash the Custom ROM
And I tried that all...
Everything looks fine, from the moment i install the Recovery and then the Custom Rom, but its stuck on the HTC Logo. Power Off, and then Stuck on HTC Logo again, and again... It never stopped! And the backdoor just getting HOT!
I tried to wipe cache and dalvik cache and all the things i used to be doing when i flash a Rom. But the problem still exist.
Then I flash the Stock Rom with this Recovery (Since I forgot to make a back up system), and its fine, although the wifi isn't working!
Then i searching somewhere and found that the Recovery is 4EXT, and the I flashed the 4EXT Recovery and its succeed.
Then I tried to Flash the Custom ROM again, but I found the same problem, another bootloop.
I tried everything i could find in here, but it's nothing...
It's about 2 days and i can't do anything with my Sensation XE.
All i know about my HTC Status is, S-ON, Unlocked and the HBOOT 1.29.0000
is there any easy to understand way to make My Sensation XE Back?
Please Help...
Thanks in advance...

Hi,
In 4 EXT ,did you enable "Smartflash" just before flashing the ROM ?
For more information ,look HERE
Then
Don't know if this works with Hboot 1.29, but you could try to relock Hboot and flash the appropriate RUU for your device. Then you can start again.:good:
Edit: I just made a quick post on how I solved a similar problem here.
Good luck.

What happened when you locked the hboot?
What happened when you ran the RUU?
Is your device recognized by adb, fastboot, both or neither?

Ah, yes...
Finally I relocked and ran the RUU...

At least your phone is working again. :highfive:
But of course you can flash custom ROMs.
If you want to stay S-ON, you will have to unlock the hboot again and then I suggest using this guide.
Or you could read every sticky in this forum before doing anything else and then follow one of the S-OFF guides like this one, which is what I'm going to do. :good:
Happy hacking.

Hi,
The asskicker guide will work on both 1.27 and 1.29 hboot.
And it is the best guide if you stay s-on.

My money would be on ViperS.
But read everything about flashing ROMs with S-ON and updating your radio first.

[Q] [HELP] My phone stucks at htc screen

As the threat's title, my phone stuck at htc screen.
I've just received htc sensation XE from my brother. This phone isn't S-off-ed yet, and I've just unlock bootloader and then flash MiUI v5 ROM without backing up (I wish I had) and now It won't boot up.
And my question is how to reflash stock ROM for my phone (4.0.3) and if I can't reflash Stock ROM, what should I do to unbrick myphone?
Please help, because this is very important to me
P/s: sorry if this question was asked by somebody else

What recovery do you have? If you have 4ext recovery you have to enable smartflash before flashing if you have clockworkmod you need to flash boot.img from pc manually because you are s-on and wipe everything except sd card
