[Q] HTC sensation Boot loader stuck

Hi
I update my phone to ICS by RUU and I couldn't open it. The boot animation is stuck in the green HTC logo. "Quietly brilliant" doesn't even come on.
So i tried to flash the RUU again but it said Error 155. So i tried to superwipe. But when I go into the bootloader and into Recovery, the screen just flashed and went black. And showed the phone icon with a red cross. Seems like I can't get into recovery to install zip from card.
My bootloader says -
UNLOCKED
PYRAMID PVT SHIP S-0N RL
HBOOT - 1.27.0000
eMMC - BOOT

Please help me.

Since you are using RUU I wonder it will been fine even you are on custom ROM.
I guest maybe you are using wrong version of RUU make sure you are using the right ROM.
If would you like to try you may would like to revert back the Recovery if your are using custom recovery with this guide [GUIDE] Get Stock Recovery/Install OTA Updates without losing data.

the error you have represents connection issues
you need to run the RUU from fastboot mode in device (your device should read "fastboot usb")
Also you got stuck after running RUU ?? weird ...did the RUU ran first time completely ?
Also for safe RUN ...relock the boot loader and run the RUU...by keeping the phone in fastboot mode (device reads "fastboot usb")

Ok. So I relock my bootloader and I tried to install it. It said Error 140 - Bootloader version error. It's in fastboot USB mode. The installer get up to the Updating signature stage but then it gave error. I have SUPERcid. help?

as you are S-ON currently ..you cant run RUU having lower bootloader versions....(thats why you are getting bootloader errors)
right now you can only run ICS RUU's...
as you are superCID you can get any ICS RUU..
to RUN the RUU
1.make sure your bootloader is locked/relocked
2.keep the device in fastboot usb (i.e. connect it to pc when in fastboot )
3.run the RUU from PC
(only if RUU runs completely and gives you congats message --then only RUU is successful)
if you got any errors even after doing this...please post the error in this thread

Hi there.
I have the exact same problem as the original poster! (Coincidentally the same info in the bootloader too!) I'm trying run a RUU which I downloaded and have had an
'ERROR [155]: UNKNOWN ERROR
The ROM Update Utility cannot update your android phone.
Please get the correct ROM Update Utility and try again.
The error may be because my bootloader is unlocked? But when I try to re-lock it it shows the "security warning" below "re-locked"
and then the RUU gives me ERROR [140]: BOOTLOADER VERSION ERROR
The RUU I'm trying to use is called RUU_Pyramid_hTC_Asia_WWE_1.35.707.1_Radio_10.43a.9007.00U_10.51.9007.27_M3_release_198358_signed
Please help! I've been trying to Install MIUI all day and it is turning into a nightmare.. I don't want to lose this phone D:

I just got my phone back. Flash clockwordmod or 4ext from adb. And then use it to wipe everything in your phone. And then flash a ROM.zip and it will work like charm

cid is HTC__001
was on stock god knows which rom, left phone on overnight, woke up in the morning and phone was off. turned it on and it's stuck in bootloop. so i thought if i could root the phone, I could install a rom through CWM. unlocked the bootloader via htcdev, fastboot flashed CWM, tried booting into CWM and it just boot loops. i then ran out of the little amount of battery i had left, and couldn't charge the phone because of bootloop. so flashed stock recovery to get phone to charge. relocked the bootloader and tried flashing "RUU_Ville_U_ICS_40_S_HTC_Europe_2.31.401.5_Radio_1.06es.50.02.31_10.09a.50.04L_release_275655_signed", flashed successfully but still bootloop. tried flashing an older version, RUU_Ville_U_HTC_Europe_1.47.401.1_Radio_0.15.31501S.13_3_10.08.31501S.04L_release_250115_signed, didn't flash due to older hboot.
unlocked bootloader again and tried HTC One S AIO Kit by Hasoon, flashed CWM and still stuck in bootloop. flashed TWRP and also stuck in bootloop. running out of ideas here
at the moment, I still have access to bootloader. anyone have any ideas?
thanks in advance

but can u go into the bootloader mode ???

thanks for replying so quick!
not really good with my terms. i'm guessing bootloader mode is vol dn + power?, yes i can get into that. and i can see device in fastboot aswell when i type "fastboot devices"

so simply your phone is not bricked mate, read the posts and you'll get to it very quickly.
Wish u luck

in fastboot, either reflash recovery or erase cache

thanks for the replies :good:
fastboot erase cache doesn't look like it did anything, still bootloops
i tried flashing the CWM recovery i had again via fastboot, didn't work, still bootloops when i try accessing recovery. grabbed the CWM and TWRP recovery images from HTC AIO kit, tried flashing them with fastboot, still nothing stuck in bootloop.
although once i did flash the recovery image, the htc logo screen changed in that there is now red writing underneath it:
"This build is for development purposes only. Do not distribute outside of HTC without HTC's written permission. Failure to comply may lead to legal action", after a minute, the screen goes off for 5 seconds and comes back with standard htc logo and bootloops.
any other ideas? :crying:
thanks again.

You should be able to

tried that many times, but i'll try again and write what happens
i've done fastboot oem lock, it says:
(bootloader) Lock successfully...
(bootloader) TZ_HTC_SVC_DISABLE ret = 534642040 (0x1FDDFD78)
FAILED (status read failed (Too many links))
finished. total time: 0.942s
i'm guessing that's right because it's gone from "unlocked" to "relocked" in bootloader, including "security warning" added underneath it.
(erased the cache next using fastboot)
ran the RUU, completed successfully, no errors...phone rebooted, still bootloops
can still access bootloader
ran the RUU again, this time as administrator...completed successfully, no errors...phone rebooted, still bootloops
still have access to bootloader and working fastboot.
there must be some way to fix this

you are sooo right, if only i could access recovery, i know what to do
but the problem is, i can't...i've tried atleast 15 times if not more to flash as you said using fastboot, cwm twrp and stock recoveries, using many files (to rule out having a corrupted recovery img) and using the HTC AIO kit too to flash recovery, always bootloops
as i said, i tried to fastboot flash the recoveries provided with the HTC AIO kit, this also bootloops.
do you have any other ideas? i'd appreciate anything rather than using this as a paperweight lol

[Q] HTC ONE S no rom no adb no sd card

Hi !
I have been trying to fix my htc one s (s4) for several days now, and i'm stuck.
I tried to update my HBOOT and get back to stock rom by flashing a RUU but I got the wrong one (signature verification fail) but I'm not sure that's what caused the problem.
When I plug my phone in in recovery (TWRP or CWM) an empty disk is detected on my computer but no sd card so i can't format it or load another ROM to be flashed.
I did a factory reset to see if it would fix it but it did not.
I have no ROM left on my phone, no backup available, adb does not work ( each adb command gets me a error:device not found ) and adb devices can't see my phone.
My HTC Drivers are updated.
Fastboot and bootloader, however, still work.
I have tried changing cable.
When I wipe dalvik in TWRP, I get this line among the other ones in the log:
/sd-ext not present, skipping
when i do a factory reset one of the line is
E: unknowv olume for path [/sd-ext]
And sometimes, although I'm not sure what triggers it, I get a bunch of
Unable to open ums lunfile (No such file or directory)
My phone is S-ON, H-BOOT is 1.14.0002
I don't know what to try anymore I hope I'm not the owner of a shiny little brick.
Does anyone have any ideas what my fix it ?
I apologize for my english if my grammar is poor, I'm French.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

"STOCK" recovery. I think you have tried with CUSTOM recovery.
Here is the link for stock recovery. The second download link is the stock recovery image
Flash stock recovery, then relock boot loader and then follow the above procedure :good:

Actually I did flash the stock recovery I just typed custom by mistake. Sorry about that. The one I flashed even came from the same link .

I searched on the forums and I might not have flashed the right ruu.
But i can't seam to find the right one, because strangely "fastboot getvar version-main" gives a blank result.

First I recommend you to unlock your bootloader.
So if you are in bootloader and your device is not recognised I think it´s a driver issue.
If you allready checked it check it once more or update your tools (ADB, fastboot)
If nothing helps you could go to recovery and format your device (not only wipe format) should be clear that all data on device is lost.
Try different recoverys some people report that philz also works fine on M_4. (try install new rom option on philz).
DONT flash stock sense 6 ROM (wrong partition layout for this hboot) with this hboot rather take 5.5.
I´m sorry but without get connectet via ADB or fastboot I think there is no chance to get it working again.

I tell you in short terms:
If you can´t get a fastboot connection to your device it looks very bad to bring your device back.
For wiping something you need recovery for flashing new recovery you need fastboot.
For flashing a new firmware to fix messed up partitions you need fastboot.
And first of all to unlock your bootloader you need fastboot.
You see all ends up with fastboot.
As what the device is shown in the manager of windows?
Better to use Windows 7 there are much driver problems people reporting on win 8

If you have a connection via fastboot you first have to decide what ROM you want, search for the matching firmware.
for example flash the latest firmware for M_4... 4.09.401.3 from here (new partition layout for e.g. sense 6):
https://docs.google.com/file/d/0BzCFBBNdXagdcEMybkdBME5iUE0/edit
After that flash TWRP 2.7.1.1 or philz and format all you have to try one of this recoverys should work.
Next push or sideload a ROM via adb I recommend you one them:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc...-official-stock-sense-6-rom-firmware-t2817921
You can decide what you want rooted or not it doesn´t matter.
After installing with succsess try to reboot that´s it.

I encountered a similar issue when playing around with returning my device to stock. I flashed stock recovery, then re-locked my bootloader. What is the downloading screen you're seeing? Is it the stock recovery screen?
To fix, i had to change CID back to stock (for me that was, CWS__001)
Unlock bootloader again, using HTC unlock.bin (unlock.bin wouldn't work when i was on super cid)
Flash custom recovery TWRP 2.6.3.0 (I'm not sure if 2.7.1.1 works with the old partition layout, so i used this version until i had upgraded to hboot 2.22, then I flashed 2.7.1.1. This may be an unnecessary step, but it always worked for me)
Once twrp was working again...
Flash stock hboot 2.22 found in the dev section
Flash TWRP 2.7.1.1 (again, might be an unnecessary step)
Boot to recovery
From TWRP, adb push the sense 6 rom i wanted to flash (IC 3.07 in my case)
After the push completed, flash ROM and reboot and all was good
As you can see, the steps i took require that fastboot and adb drivers work flawlessly, especially when pushing ROM to the device using abd.
If any of this seems unfamiliar, then don't do these steps. Again, this is just what i did when i flashed stock recovery and re-locked bootloader with a ROM that wouldn't boot.

Did you get fastboot working yet? Does "fastboot devices" show your device? You can't do anything until fastboot works...but I imagine it worked at some point, since you unlocked and re-locked your device.
You can't install recovery because your bootloader is locked. And you can't unlock your bootloader until you change your CID back to whatever it was when you created the unlock.bin file on the HTC website.
Are you getting this error when you attempt to unlock?
FAILED (remote: unlock token check failed)

That's what i had to do when i first tried to root my phone. I was on Windows 7, but it was an old install and had all kinds of software on it that might have been preventing usb from working (iTunes, HTC Sync, some other random software, etc.) Sometimes, I would even have trouble connecting an external HD!
I ended up installing a clean copy of XP on an old computer that i now use strictly for flashing stuff to my phone.

New problem
I have 4.3 on my HTC now and have received an update for 4.4.2, however when I try this it goes a quarter of the way then comes up with a red triangle and exclamation point. The device is still rooted somehow. Can you help me update?

I don't think OTA will work on unlocked/tampered device with custom recovery.I think you need to run ruu.exe if one is available for you to get 100% stock before OTA will work again.

Hello,
I found an FUU for 4.4 Kitkat on the link you posted earlier, It does all the necessary actions with no failures and completes with a Congrats screen but the firmware is the same?

[Q] [Help] My HTC One S not booting on after rooting

Hi Everyone,
This is the first time I am playing with a mobile software.
I did the unlock bootloader as per the instructions given in htc website, and my phone status shows unlocked, but it is still S-ON.(Hboot 2.51)
I was planning to install a custom rom either CM11 or MIUI5.
After reading many threads in xda as well as in other sites, I tried to do a S-OFF to install a custom ROM.
I tried Rumrummer, Moonshine and firewater, but nothing has made my mobile as S-OFF.
I tried to restore back to the original stock rom, and followed the process in htconeforum(how-unbrick-restore-htc-one-s-stock-relocked)
So, I tried to do an oem lock and it got relocked.
Now, I tried to do an RUU, and it didn't work with data transfer error.
Only Hboot comes on my phone with the below details
***Tampered***
***Relocked***
My Phone doesn't start now; tried pushing lot of CWM and TRWM recoveries, it got stuck in sending recovery for long time, and i exit.
Can anyone please help me and let me know, how can i restore back to htc rom or go forward and install custom rom.
Thanks,
Deepak

Stuck in sending recovery/sending zip flash
Some how , I managed to push CWM recovery to my phone.
But when I select install from zip, it says "Error mounting SDCard".
I tried the fastboot oem lock using all in one tool kit and now it says Tampered, Relocked.
So, i am trying to run factory RUU exe , it stuck at sending recovery.
I tried to push the .zip factory RUU, and it says sending and stuck there.
Even I tried the adb sideload, it says data transfer failed.
Looks like all the data on the SD card(in my case internal storage) is gone during erase and I don't have any flash zips on the device and I am not able to send any flash zips to the device.
The drivers are installed correctly, and my HBoot 2.15 says fastboot usb when in bootloader, but when i type adb devices, it gives no device.
Can some one please help me in getting my phone back.
Thanks,
Deepak

I suggest you get the OTG USB cable. Load the ROM on a Flash USB and then use TWRP to install the ROM (Remember to mount the OTG in TWRP) Check Amazon, it only cost less than $3. I've never push the ROM to the phone. Saves a lot of time when you have multiple phones.
