Try downgrading/upgrading your radio or try another custom ROM, but seems to me it's a ROM issue.

The kernel, that is what is wrong.

Can you recommend me a kernel to use with this ROM please?

I solved the problem, thanks for the help guys. The problem was not with ROM or kernel, it was me.
I was installing the rom using S-ON method so I pushed the wrong boot.img at the last part. Pushed the MIUI rom boot.img instead of the kernel's.

You should use the kernel that has been given to you by the developer, you can find it in the download section. This is it http://d-h.st/jm8
If your phone is s-on you cant flash kernels in recovery, but you can flash it with adb.

I see that you caused the problem, but the problem was the kernel. Next time be more careful at what are you doing.

The Kernel is completely working. But he had S-ON, so had to flash via recovery.
-adb flash boot boot.img

When you are s-on you can not flash via recovery, you must flash via fastboot but NEXT recovery supports smart flash for some devices, and if you activate it you can flash kernels even with s-on.

Do you know what kind of recovery is that can flash kernel directly?

If you are S-OFF you can flash kernels with all of them. If you are S-ON, you have 4EXT recovery for some phones with smart flash but I think Desire S is not supported. The easiest way to flash kernels with S-ON is with adb. Just extract the boot.img file from the kernel to the ADB folder and with the command : fastboot flash boot boot.img you flash it to the phone. If you don`t know how to use adb read the forum.

Which kernel are u trying to flash?
Are u familiar with fast boot? If so you need to enter the command fastboot flash boot boot.img. Also u may want to do S-off so u can just flash kernels through recovery. Here is the link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2155071
He already tried fastboot, it says so a couple of posts above yours.

Need to provide more detail than that, if you want help.
As already asked, what kernel are you trying to install? What was the exact fastboot command you used? Any error messages? Can adb read the phone, or do any other fastboot commands work?
If you are trying one of Rohan's kernels you need to flash it in recovery and still fastboot flash the boot.img afterwards. His kernel installs something during recovery that has to be there even if you have to flash the boot.img separately.
If that isn't the case, then yes more details are needed.

but did you also flash the zip through recovery?
When someone is trying to help you, it's best to give all the info they ask for, even if you think the information won't help or is not important, because if you did know better, you wouldn't be having any problems. The more information you provide, the easier it is for someone to figure out what's going wrong.

See exad's post and well as the mine above. If it's a custom kernel you need to flash it in recovery and fastboot flash the boot.img as well.

Hi
same situation with my Sensation
Hapend when moved from Viper S ROM version 3.1.3 to 3.1.4 via update.
Lost WIFI and now I can't turn it on.
Check wipe&full installation, update, I was try 3.1.4 again and 5.0.0.
Without result
regards,
R.

Problem with WIFI solved!!!
I was happend (I guess) because we all have S-ON. So, we need to flashing a boot.img when it change with roms (or roms update)
And there is solution. Flash yours boot.img or do it when you install new rom (or reinstall current).
First way is in this post
I was use fastboot command.
Other way you should update yours recovery to newest 4EXT recovery and enable 4EXT smartflash, then istall rom (I choose Viper S/C 3.1.4).
I choose first one, becasue after second on device didn't start (it was rebooting again and again), so then I was use fastboot command.
And.... WIFI is back
And permanent solution for future - ofcourse permanent smartflash.

yes.
you can either flash the appropriate kernel to your actual ROM - your old system should be back - or you flash a new ROM (dont forget to wipe everything - except the internal SD-card) and after that flash the kernel (its in the ROM.zip) via fastboot (fastboot flash boot boot.img).

The kernel atm only supports the 4.2.2 because our one mini isn't getting any support from htc. The latest kernel source is still 4.2.2. So the only roms that would work would be the magio rom r3.

Bricked HTC :/

Hi guys !
Last time i tried to flash a new rom to my phone. I dowloaded HTC One S All-In-One and i tried to do this by this aplication. I've unlocked the bootloader and rooted my device. Also i have flashed CWM recovery. Then i tried to flsh a rom, so i have launched recovery and started to do it. Rom was installed succesfully but mu phone have been stuck on boot animation and i can't do anything with it. My computer doesn't read it and i can't put any file on phone. I havent done s-off. Pls help me with this trouble. Sry for my bad english
When S-On you need to flash kernel separately or you will get a bootloop. Just flash boot.img with adb.

Best Rom for Sensation XE

Hi All,
Just want a bit of advise.
I have been using my old Sensation XE as my work phone for a while now, but would like to put a custom ROM on it.
At the moment it is standard, and think it could do with being updated.
Also do any of the ROM's allow you to use the built in buttons on the XE?
I have put the ZOMBI-X ROM on my Asus Transformer and have been impressed with that, so any advise would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance

Right, I am going to have a go - any guides anywhere?
I made a start last night, but it would not install the ROM zip file - kept coming back with an error, havent got the error to hand at the moment.
The problem I have at moment tho is it wont actually boot to recovery it kept freezing on the HTC logo screen, and I had to remove the battery to get it to boot back to normal mode.
Any ideas?
I know I am more than likely going to need to start again, but any tips would be appreciated.

Bit of an update, I can get the 1.0.0.5 version of 4ext to work, but cant get 1.0.0.6 to load after installing and then trying to boot to recovery it just sits on the HTC logo screen.
