As the title says. I received an HTC Desire S, which is stuck on the htc screen, from my friend. It won't boot and it seems like a brick.
I can although enter the bootloader with power button + volume down.
These are the following information:
SAGA PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT -0.98.0002
RADIO - 3805.06.02.03_M
eMMC - boot
Mar 30 2011, 17:29:31
I tried flashing a RUU, but that didn't work. I think the major problem is with the S being ON. Is there any way I can boot this device at all? It's kinda of a shame since it's basically in a good as new condition...
Thanks for all the help in advance!
What happened when you tried ruu? Error?
Device should still be covered by original warranty

The installation gets stuck at "Rebooting into bootloader".
I don't know about the warranty, but I'll tell him to return it if all else fails.
Are you sure that the necessary drivers are installed on the PC?
does the ruu give any errors? Or is that what you said above
If you enter the boot loader can you perform a full data reset? Any errors?
Swyped from my DesireS
Boot into bootloader, switch to fastboot mode (select FASTBOOT with volume keys and press Power), connect USB, see that you have correct drivers and the phone is recognized, run the RUU. It'll work.
Hi SlashSpeed,
propably you got the same problem like me. No solution for me so far:

What error returns on flashing the RUU?
Hi
Try S-OFFing your phone from revolutionary.io and flash one of the pre-rooted roms

This is not possible without adb or recovery?!
So here's my findings so far.
I tried running RUU from fastboot mode. No errors, installation gets stuck at "Rebooting into bootloader". I waited for over 2 hours and nothing happened. My PC recognizes the bootloader as "Android Bootloader interface" and fastboot as "My htc" in device manager.
I also tried running PG88IMG.zip with no luck. It gets stuck at [2] BOOTLOADER - Updating and nothing happens, even after hours.
The only think I have left for now, is the goldcard method it seems. I'll try it with my HTC G1 and report back.
Edit: Actually, I have no idea how to perform the goldcard method...some help would be much appreciated.
As he hasn't unlocked the device he should still be covered over the original warranty

Actually, I asked him about that a couple of days ago and apparently, the device is not in warranty anymore. So unless I can fix it somehow, it's dead for good..
You need to unlock the device and S-off it before flashing a Custom Rom.
First follow this thread:
[GUIDE] How to S-OFF your 1.47.x ROM with Revolutionary
Then follow this thread:
[Info] After Revolutionary: install Clockworkmod, root & more
Or install 4ext and install 4Ext Recovery with the install button.
After your done, flash your desired rom. I would recommend Endymion Rom
If you want a stock rom let me know.
Hope this helped you, if not report back.

Did you install a custom recovery and can you still get into it? if yes then try wiping cache and dalvik cache and then restarting...
also answer post above did you separately run the
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
command?

I read through the first link you sent me and I need to have the device turned on with USB Debug on. I can't do that, since it's stuck on the HTC screen. I can only access the bootloader and fastboot.
Hi SlashSpeed,
you dont have a GoldCard - but do you have access to another Android device? You can make the card with this one..

Wait, do I need to do those steps that are quoted or just with the windows batch script?
I have to do the quoted steps a-g with my HTC Dream, so I presume I'll have to use that device for the adb as well?
Sorry for this sort of questions, I have never done these things before.
Hi guys, i have a problem with my Sensation, OTA ICS update giving me boot loop
So here's the story:
I used custom ROM, then decided to go back to stock ROM
Flash RUU 2.3.4 then S-on, all seems normal at this point
OTA update a few times to ICS
First few update phone still normal, then ICS update and boot loop
Now the main problem:
I can't seem to do anything anymore to the phone
Phone is locked with HBOOT 1.27.000
When I try to go to recovery or factory reset it just goes to boot screen and boot loop
Steps I have tried:
Try to install RUU again by renaming zip file to PG58IMG.zip and it just says version is outdated (or similar, I forgot)
Try to flash various firmware using bootloader, but it just says parsing zip file then nothing
Try to flash firmware using CMD (flash zip) with admin privilege, but it says not allowed
Try to flash recovery img (Stock, CWM, 4ext), using CMD it says OK but nothing changes
Try to flash boot img (Stock, customs from Revolution HD 6.6.7) it says OK but nothing changes
Unlocked bootloader using HTCdev then retried all the steps above still the same
Please help, I don't know what else I can do...
Sorry if too long and confusing...
If your at the boot loader then it look like you can access fastboot. If you can there is a program called android flasher ( for windows computers and can be found in the sensation thread here on xda, if not i can upload it to dropbox for you). You can flash img's from there. Also make sure to read all instructions carefully because the Htc dev unlock has issues with bootloaders (BE CAREFUL), the revolutionary method is better, and give you a full unlock.

Hey Darryll, thanks for the response
I tried the android flasher, but when I tried to flash boot.img, it says error, your phone needs ENG bootloader.
I don't thinkI can use the revolutionary method tight now, because my hboot is already at 1.27.000
Do you know what might be causing the boot loop for my phone?

What happens when you enter recovery? Btw when I say recovery I meant stock recovery only
Also that remote not allowed shouldn't come when you have unlocked bootloader

what i really think is that i messed up and kinda skipped step 2(Restore to Stock 3.32 Rooted ROM) and 3(Flash boot.img from Stock 3.32 Rooted ROM in Fastboot) of the guide.
then i pulled out my battery and tried starting it again but still it keeps on showin the Juopunutbear(with a HD) loop type thingy.
then i tried backing up from boot but whatever i press doesnt work and the device just restarts
i tried recovery and everything else but no use, it just restarts
is it possible to start from scratch ?

see the soff process takes you to that screen
and you need to do wire trick there ...
if you got unsuccessful in wire trick ...you need to revert back to normal working state (i.e. trouble shoot point 4 i've mentioned)
what you did is ran controlbear until half ...and without reverting back to normal ..you tried to do other stuff which will obviously wont work

deamon not running ..means adb failed to detect your phone
that is probably you didnt uninstalled HTC-sync or you are using usb hub, or usb 3.0 port

Hi,
I have a HTC Sensation. I wanted to root the phone, so that I could install custom ROM's. Fist I unlocked the phone following HTCDev's instructions. It worked fine. The bootloader screen said UNLOCKED. After that, I decided to S-OFF the phone with Juopunutbear. I ran the temp_root.bat first, then I ran ControlBear.exe. Everything went fine. I got the message that I should do the wiretrick, which I did. From this moment on, I am stuck. I tried to run temp_root_remove.bat but that didn't work. I tried all kinds of thing. (example: I tried to flash original RUU from HTC to the phone, but then while sending signature it has an ERROR.)

I have done this troubleshooter. It did not help. I am stuck on the juonunutbear screen with the green arrow pointing down.

Same issue
Hi there....
I'm not new to Android and have had my Sensation for over two years. Previously to that, I was using a blackberry changing os files and such.
I'm having the same problem as the user above and frankly not sure what to do at this point.
I've gone to the HTCdev and unlocked the bootloader but the phone has S-On.
Downloaded the Controlbear program and didn't realize I needed the wire to finish the steps. I exited the program and now it's stuck at that screen.
I've pulled out the SD card and formated it on my PC to then put on a rom to at least get it to boot into it but that hasn't worked.
I've also downloaded the RUU_PYRAMID_ICS_TMOUS_3.32.531.14 stock rom to try to reset it but the name of the device shows as asjds.
When I run the program, It had problems installing stopping on the black htc screen. Now it just boots up to the white screen with green HTC logo.
I'm really not sure what to do at this point. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hi,
I have a HTC Sensation. I wanted to root the phone, so that I could install custom ROM's. Fist I unlocked the phone following HTCDev's instructions. It worked fine. The bootloader screen said UNLOCKED. After that, I decided to S-OFF the phone with Juopunutbear. I ran the temp_root.bat first, then I ran ControlBear.exe. Everything went fine. I got the message that I should do the wiretrick, which I did. From this moment on, I am stuck. I tried to run temp_root_remove.bat but that didn't work. I tried all kinds of thing. (example: I tried to flash original RUU from HTC to the phone, but then while sending signature it has an ERROR.)
Please help me!

did you remove the temproot?
use the remove temproot.bat file

The thing is whenever my phone comes on it goes directly into the bootloader page and within few minutes it hangs and turns off, so if i plug it to the system it doesnt even recognise it. so if am to do the temproot, am not sure my system would recognize the phone.

HI
GREETINGS,
that good
now to one thing
unlock your bootloader again
flash 4ext recovery
Download 4ext recovery from the attachment and install it with following command
later after flashing the recovery download stock ics rom or ARHD and place it in the root of your sdcard
now boot into recovery and wipe everything excpet sdcard
now enable smart flash from recovery to that
boot into recovery>tools>scroll down>enable smart flash
and then flash the newly download rom

Hey,
few days ago i got a random reboot on my phone and after that nothing worked ... i found out that my phone is bricked :S
but happily there is an unblock Project here on XDA and it worked for me.
My phone now run the stock 4.0.3 ICS version from HTC.
When i now try to root my Sensation i got the message from control bear that my device is already s-off, but all other apps&programms which need root doesn't work.
I already followed the S-on guide but it didn't help me.
Have some of u maybe an idea how i can get back my root access ?
thanks
Moritz

when you are trying to flash 4ext does your hboot screen says fastboot usb?
do you have enabled usb debugging mode from settings?
try to flash another recovery and see if you have access
yeah it is fastboot usb and debugging is for sure on otherwise adb wouldnt recognize my phone ^^
i tried now to flash cwm with image and with rom manager but both didn't work

Use a ruu.exe to return to stock
Relock first the bootloader
After ruu installation unlock bootloader again and flash 4ext
See then if you have access

very strange
it is impossible after ruu and after recovery's installation that you still can't enter to recovery
are you sure you are doing everything correctly?(about recovery)
i am out of ideas right now
edit : previously i think i gave the command in the wrong way
put the recovery.img in your adb and fastboot folder and then do this command
fastboot reboot recovery.img or fastboot reboot recovery recovery.img (i don't remember exactly)
yeah im sure that i do everything right, is it maybe possible that with the unbrick guide i damage something

Are you supercid?
Change the CID to the one which matches the ruu you flashed and try
