Bricked?

I upgraded to the 1.82 ruu, then updated to the asia superpatch. Then I didnt like the asia superpatch, was having issues.
So I have tried to ruu back to the 1.82 version and it failed. Now I am at the HTC logo screen with the 4 triangles with !.
I have tried connecting phone and adb does not see the phone.
I have tried volume down and power and it just goes back to HTC triangle screen.
Nothing works, sometimes the ruu looks like its going to work and I get a progress meter but it fails around 51% when its flashing radio.
Please help.

oh man, this does sound like a brick. if you can't do volume down + power to get to fastoot, then i don't believe there's a way to flash the RUU. i've read it wasn't supposed to be possible to upgrade then potentially downgrade after upgrading. and adb no picking it up is no good as well mate.

I did get to a screen that says
LOCKED

RUU
And thats it

run the ruu with windows administrator permission

Oh trust me I have tried. The only thing the phone responds to is fastboot commands. If anyone has any fastboot ideas I would like to try them.
Thanks.

Try this
First, make sure you're in fastboot mode, then type 'fastboot oem rebootRUU'
Next, make sure you have the .zip RUU file in the same folder and type 'fastboot flash zip XXX.zip' (replace XXX with whatever it's called, of course)
Now, you can see what is actually happening when you are flashing the RUU. In my case, there was 2 points where it told me to "re-flush image immediately" or something like that. When I ran the last command again (fastboot flash zip XXX.zip) it went a bit further each try, but it took until the 3rd try before it was successful.
thanks to kilo89 for method

I was able to pull the rom.zip file out of the temp folder. So, I will try that when the phone charges a little bit more.

Do you have a custom recovery (like Clockwork Mod or 4ext) installed and if so have you tried rebooting the phone in recovery?

Have you tried downloading the ruu you need and trying that? I've had to ruu back to stock a couple times....doesn't hurt to try.

Actually i not really know how to do. Can you provide me a link for RUU?an official ROM link for me to download perhaps.
I did try to ask the repairing shop, they not dare to help me to reformat, the reason is, they say my phone originate from Hong Kong and i currently now in Malaysia.They do not want to take the risk. I'm so Helpless =(

Before you do any more flashing of anything, go back to the bootloader (pull battery, then power button + volume down) and post here EXACTLY what you see on the screen. If possible just take a picture of the screen.
It makes me nervous that you got your phone from Hong Kong and then an update didn't work. There are a lot of fake Sensations coming out of China. They look like the real ones, but the hardware is different and firmware/roms/radios made for the Sensation won't work on them.
If you have a fake one, trying to flash an RRU on it will deffiantely kill it and kill it badly.

Yeah that looks all legit.
I didn't mean to scare you. But that's been happening lately where someone buys a knock off, tries to install Sensation software, and bricks the phone.
To fix your problem you may have to use ADB to install a custom recovery. Or you should be able to do it using a PM58IMG file. I'm pretty sure there's a PM58IMG file for flashing 4EXT in the 4EXT thread in the dev section. Just put the file on your SD card (using a computer, obviously since the phone doesn't work) boot into bootloader, and let it run. You should then have 4EXT
You can also upgrade the firmware the same way if you want to get ICS or Jelly Bean.
I think your problem is a lot more fixable than it seems. So don't stress. You should have this up and running oon.

Recovery problems + simlock

Hello folks!
So, I got this HTC Sensation today which comes with ARHD v6.8.0.0. The phone came from UK and I'm in Portugal (if that makes any difference on this). The problem is that when I put my SIM card it says that the phone is locked. Ok, so I searched here ways to unlock it, but there is a problem. When I get into the bootloader I am not able to choose the recovery option, for some reason. I press volume down and it doesn't work. Not even, volume up or even the power button. It stays like the picture below and I need to take the battery off. Any ideas on how I can solve this? Plus, the phone is S-OFF, so shouldn't it be like simunlocked already?

Try again without the sdcard in pal. Assuming that solves your issue then look for the sim unlock thread but use a different sdcard.

I tried without the sdcard and surpsingly it worked. But then I tried with another 2 sdcards I have and it still doesn't work...

It all depends on the sdcard tbh. Sounds odd but the more offical the better. Sometimes the bootloader won't register the sdcard unless it can read the cid of it, or the bootloader will loop waiting for it to load :-\ I've used official sandisk sdcards all the time and some work and others fail :-\ have you tried fresh formatts?
Tapped out from my sexy nexus 7

I have 2 sandisks and another one unbranded I guess. Format through PC? I can boot into recovery if I use ROM Manager but I can't get back into bootloader, it always get stuck in there...

Aye the PC should suffice. Also if you have your adb set up you can use adb reboot recovery .
I've also found that some phones just take there sweet time about reading the sdcard in hboot. Just give like 3 minutes and if it shows no signs of searching the sdcard then the sdcard is not good for the bootloader :-\
Tapped out from my sexy nexus 7

So the problem is the sdcard? WIth all the 3 sdcards, none of them will work? But I know, that the previous owner could go into bootloader and it worked nice. I don't see what's the problem here...
I'm trying to follow this guide:

The sdcards are fine enough for use with everything else bar the bootloader :-\ but that is the correct guide have you tried step one? And are you trying to put the sdcards in with the pg58img.zip / .nbh on it already? As you could try that and see how you get on, and then anytime you need to go to the recovery from bootloader then just take out the sdcard?

I did try step one mate, but I can't use it. And I did try to go on bootloader with the file on the sdcard... I don't know what else to do.

Hmm. What sizes are the sdcard? Also are you on ics firmware?

sdcards are 8GB each. How can check the firmware?

So, I updated to last firmware (3.33) and now I can get into bootloader but once I get there it starts loading for the PG58DIAG.zip but I don't have any file there with that name. Phone boots up normally tho, it's not in bootloop. I changed to SuperCID too and can't use my SIM card yet. Any ideas?

You need to drop to ginger bread firmware for the file to work. Also if you have the pg58diag.nbh you can simply zip the file with no compression and place it in the root of your sdcard. But make sure to name it PG58DIAG.zip in caps as that seems to help. And if you can see if you can get access to a 2gb sandisk to test with

Do I need to flash a GB firmware now? I tried what you say mate but it doesn't work... It gets stuck on bootloader saying SD Checking... Loading... [PG58DIAG.zip] and nothing happens. I'm starting to lose my mind

It stays like this...

So, I can't get out of there...no matter how much I try, it never finds the goddamn file. Any ideas??

The user solved his issue in the end by buying a unlock code after a downgrade to gingerbread firmware and the bootloader would not register the diag file.

Sorry for not updating, but that is correct. I got an unlock code and it worked. Flashed back to firmware 3.33 and ARHD 6.8.0.0 and all is working fine. But if I go on bootloader it still says that, it still tries to load that file even though I don't have any kind of those files on sdcard... Weird?

I also want to update because my phone sometimes gets no signal and I have to put it in airplane mode and then to remove the airplane mode if you hold the cue!!!
Sorry for my bad English

You actually need the 2.15 firmware to stop your problems, but it's a good idea to run the RUU first.
To run the RUU you just connect the phone in fastboot mode and run the RUU program in Windows. Uninstall HTC Sync Manger (leave drivers installed) because it can interfere. Make sure no other programs are running and make sure screen saver/hibernation is turned off. Once the RUU is completed you need to flash the 2.15 firmware package too. You'll find that in Turge's stock Sense 5 ROM thread.

Hey Guys, I too have downloaded the RUU specified above, and I am curious if it will work as well.
I'm in the same boat as OP,
Difference is I'm: HBOOT-1.09.0000
I'm very nervous as the last time I ran a RUU file I was S-OFF and SuperCID and managed to hard brick my phone.
Now I'm S-OFF and SuperCID so I'm guessing I can do this? Thanks in advance guys, really appreciate your time, hope the OP gets his problem sorted before I - sorry for the hijack.
EDIT: Do I need to have the HTC Sync Manager installed? I do not have it installed currently and I downloaded and installed drivers located here:

Sensation not turning on

So I just got my Sensation today(unlocked, Bell version z710a) and followed this guide(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1631861) up to step 4A. The problem is, I forgot to enable smartflash(step 3A) before flashing the rom(same rom attached in step 4A). Now my phone won't boot up and I keep getting a message saying, "touch input stopped"(included pics of what it looks like).
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
And this message keeps popping up. Sometimes I'll remove the battery and turn it back on and this will come up:
And I will be able to go through the normal setup with the message popping up every 2 seconds. But as soon as I press "finish" after going through the setup, the phone will still not boot up properly and get stuck on either the htc logo or a blank screen.
I would truly appreciate any help, I've tried wiping data and rebooting as well, and I have no idea what to do now. Thanks!

Try running an RUU

@noodleyhead
did you not forget to flashing boot.img too after installing the new rom with manual flashing.. after you know it's that you already forgot to enabled smartflash form 4ext recovery..?

Go to recovery ( remove battery , insert battery , hold volume down and power button )
Wipe data cache ,
Enable smart flash and flash Rom again

I've tried that as well, but get no results. I also tried relocking bootloader and unlocking again, but i still end up and the lockscreen and go through setup wizard, only to end up stuck at the htc logo.
I tried doing RUU also, but I have a Bell Sensation, which is 3.32.666.13, and there isn't an ruu file available for that.
Any other ideas?

I was about to, but I have a bell sensation on 3.32.666.13, and I haven't been able to find a download for my particular version. If you know of any others that will work, let me know.

I think any z710a ruu should work

Ok, I tried wiping data and enabling smartflash, then reflashing the rom, but now when i try to boot it up, it won't go past the white screen with the htc logo, no quietly brilliant coming up.
Anyone else have an idea of what I can try? I'm getting desperate now, nothing seems to be working.

Can you link me to one? I can't tell which ones are z710a and which ones aren't.
If you can find one on here that might work for me: http://www.tsar3000.com/Joomla/index...oads&Itemid=98
or here: http://www.shipped-roms.com/index.php?category=android&model=Pyramid
or anywhere else you might be able to find one.
Again I have a bell sensation 3.32.666.13. I was able to find a zip file here: http://www.androidruu.com/?developer=Pyramid (3rd one down)
but its a zip file, not exe, so not really sure what thats for. Thanks so much for the help!

Thanks, but I think that is the older version(from gingerbread I think) and after I searched around I think that one will not work. I may be wrong, so you are certainly welcome to take a closer look whenever you have tim after getting home.
Thanks so much for taking the time to help me! At this moment, my phone will not boot up past the white screen with the htc logo(no quietly brilliant coming up) and I am getting very desperate. I wiped everything that I possibly could in recovery, reflashed the rom after enabling smartflash, and my result is being stuck on the same htc screen. Am I bricked beyond repair? I am seriously getting very scared now. Anyways thanks for helping, any other ideas are welcome.

I was following this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1631861
and went up to step 4A, and used the same rom linked to dropbox download in that step.
Problem was, I forget to enable smart flash before flashing(step 3A), so I followed extra step 1 in that same thread, which is flashing boot.img, but that didn't work either.

I don't know :\... but also you can try to turn off your device, and remove the battery, and put it back, then press power button + volume up button & choose factory rest, it might work
