Advice about bootloader/recovery

Hi all,
I just debranded my tmobile HTC sensation using the guide in the development section... Used recovery 5.0.8 (cant remember exactly) all good... Used sensation stock Rom 1.73 and really pleased with it..
Just got a question that when I first put the recovery on, the boot loader screen heading was **RECOVERY** in pink with white writing (never seen this before in any mods I had done) but then after applying the RUU 1.73 it now reads **LOCKED**.
This heading is right on the top of the bootloader screen just above:
Pyramid Pvt Ship S-Off RL.
I was also reading another thread on the development section about applying a stock recovery... Shall do that?
Please advise...
Cheers

If you run a RUU it takes your phone back to stock... EVERYTHING stock, so you loose root and s-off etc.. you need to run through the guide again as if you just bought the phone and want to S-OFF it

I didnt exactly run the RUU, it wouldnt let me.. had to extract the img.zip from it and update the firmware that way..
I have attached the pic, please advise what should I do.. it the ***locked*** in pink

Guys... Any thoughts???

Hi,
Perhaps running Revolutionary again,will revert your phone back to unlocked.
Check the s-off guide in my sig.

(Q)HTC Sensation XE Roms?

Hi this is my first thread so hi everyone. This question has probably been asked before but I couldnt find it.
I have a HTC sensation XE on the way to me. Is there a list of Roms for this phone or will any HTC Sensation Rom work with the XE?
Thanks in advance for the replys.

there are more than 30 sensation roms listed here.

You can flash any rom you like, in fact, XE and non-XE is not a lot in difference(except Beats Audio)

Brilliant guys.. love the phone. Now to find out how I go about rooting it.
Sent from my HTC Sensation XE with Beats Audio Z715e using xda premium

you just need to compare which one is the most suitable for you..
in case you dont really sure which is for you, do like me...download every roms available...test it for few hours..then flash the others..then go on and on..

im a normal sensation user but as far as i know roms would work with both phones

Thanks guys.. just rooted and got Su... Should I be getting supercid too?

If you want to flash ROMs,you should do that.
Sent from my HTC Sensation XE with Beats Audio using xda premium

I don't know if it's really necessary to be Supercid, i have Cid HTC_102 and all roms i've tested so far (ARHD, Insert Coin, Elegancia, Virtuous Inquisition) are working.
First let's talk about what a "CID" is in the first place. CID, as best I can tell, stands for "Carrier IDentification" and it's a little number that restricts which software can be installed on a phone. The CID determines for example, that only an officially-signed T-Mobile radio can be installed on a T-Mobile phone. And it's why you can't flash a Vodafone ROM onto a Bell Desire Z.
It may be helpful to think of the CID as a kind of "region coding" like you find on DVDs, where a North American DVD can't be played in a European player. But if you hack your DVD player, you could switch it from a European player to a North American one. Or you might even hack it to play both.
You can do the same with phones. SuperCID is, as the name implies, a universal CID where the phone will accept any kind of firmware image from anyone.

What ROMs did you try,share the experience.Which one did you like the best.
Sent from my HTC Sensation XE with Beats Audio using xda premium

Well at the minute I like Revolution HD Beats version. 3.6 Sence. I tryed the Vitisous Senceless Rom. I like that one and I also tryed a Sence 4 Rom but it still had a lot of bugs so I think ill go back to that later on.

i assume that it is your battery that causes that.check if it loses the contact
otherwise as you are S-OFF try to reflash your current fw

I've refreshed my ruu and Roms and I saw a.clip on YouTube bout keep restarting and they said put abit of card between the bk of the bat so it pushes it, done that and still happening, cud it be nothing to do with the wire trick I did
Sent from my HTC Sensation XE with Beats Audio Z715e using xda premium

from the wire trick i doubt it

i suppose you know what is your fw version
the only thing you have to do is rename the zip file as PG58IMG.zip,place it in the root of the sd card,then reboot your device into bootloader and just follow the onscreen instructions
see also here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1459767

Once your rooted and soff with custom Rom the reboots should stop. I had the same exact problem. When I was running stock I was getting constant reboots. It seemed like when ever I did a task it rebooted. Once I rooted s off and I installed my custom roms the rebooting stopped never to return again. I still am unsure what was causing the rebooting . I'm just happy its gone. I've been rooted now about a year and no problems! I love it! I don't regret it for a second. It's well worth the effort! Best wishes
