unlocking bootloader - HTC Sensation

in the htcdev there is just htc sensation and no XE
are they the same ????
or what should i do ? and how can i know the HBOOT number ?
thnx

To see, what HBOOT you have, go into the bootloader by pressing VolDown and POWER when you power on the phone, and put out your battery before, that the sensation would not use fastboot or what it is called. As far as I know Sensation and XE are not the same, but not sure?

Hi,
To see your hboot version do volume down + Power
For HTC Dev, I think yes but you need to choose your region

hi there
i have just bought an htc sensation xe and its on 2.3.4
i have tried to upgrade the phone to ics

with 2.3.4 you have it means that your hboot is 1.17 so you can use revolutionary.io method to S-OFF your device
i think you won't lose warranty

I think it depends on the carrier about the warranty, I've sent a phone in for warranty with s-off, got the replacement and they never said anything about it.. I'm currently using hypernonsense ROM, it's really good for my needs.. but to flash an ics ROM you would have to flash an ics firmware first then then the ROM

turn off your device,pull out the battery,put it again
then press and hold power button and volume down together until it goes to bootloader
in the top of the screen it shows your hboot version.if it is 1.17(probably it is because of your android version)then go here
http://revolutionary.io/ and do the steps

No I mean an RUU. Kernel is not the same as RUU. RUU stands for ROM Update Utility.
Go to htcruu.com and then go to the pyramid folder and download the RUU with 3.33.401.53 in the filename (for normal sensation) or 3.33.401.153 in the name (for sensation xe) and run that file from a windows pc.

OK, I just connect my Sensation XE to the pc and run the ruu (exe)? need to change use mode?
There are risks in making this action?

Hi greetings
can you give us the details of your bootloader
so that we can help you
to boot into bootloader
remove and reinsert battery
press and hold volume down+ power botton till phone boots
write every thing what shows on that screen
have you made NANDROID backup if yes restore it from recovery
IF NO THEN WHY YOU DID NOT MADE THE BACK UP
Re: [Q] Htc Sensation 4g bootloop
I think the 2.3 stock rom runs on a gingerbread firmware. I think you should have upgraded your firmware to ics one before flashing the cyanogenmod 9, because it is based on ics.

as alsager said you have to update your firmware version first to ics one
flash 3.33fw
see here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1459767
follow the steps carefully and before flashing check md5 sums(it is important)
then flash an ics or jelly bean rom
