ok im getting the htc one x from voda and there buying my sensation back but its rooted will this stop them buying it back off me as it defo works but as i say its rooted and its going back on arhd rom tonight from virtuos sense 4 rom any advice cheers guys

personally I would instal a stock ROM and then unroot and turn s-on just to make sure.
There is a guide somewhere

Are they buying it back under a trade in scheme, where they give you a value regardless of you buying another phone? CPW bought my HTC Desire which was rooted, they didn't even bother to check.

thanx guys didnt wanna go through the messing about of reversing soff and stock roms ill just stick arhd back on and let em have it cheers
ye there buying it back already told me how much for my phone nothing to do with the new one except im getting the price down with what they owe me lol

just run an ruu
if you have supercid u can use any.. i did it to mine last nite, They want mine back
i dont think it will matter either way, but downloading and flashing an ruu only takes 10mins.
as for cid and s-off id just leave it... its easier for the next owner then lol

I have been trying to fix this for weeks since I got the phone....
I installed 1.17, and that did nothing but put me into a complete bootloop.
I put the modified version here that was posted Tessut, fixed permissions in 4EXT and booted into my ROM (Energy 3-15.12), and same ****...no sensors.
I have even installed the RUU for ICS from HTC (EU version only as there is no ICS RUU for TMOUS yet)...and then I installed my custom ROM and same issue.
I have tried the Stock Kernel and the Bricked Kernel (Bricked-3.0-v1.1-ics), and no success.
I AM SuperCID'd: 11111111
I am also noticing that I am not the only one with this problem with any fixes applied also. The hardware is functional, I have tested the chipsets individually and they are on and working, just no readings (events).
At this point I am ready to pay someone money if they come up with a successful fix. If you have a PayPal account I am more than willing to contribute a fair price if I can get this **** working!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have lost all hope on this :-(

@Tessut: I am guessing that this is the only solution we have now.....perhaps when the ICS release is finally made it will solve our problems.
Otherwise I have a phone here that is VERY frustrating to use with no sensors....

[Q] European RUU

Regarding the European RUU, I have a completely stock branded to vodafone desire S with the 2.3.5 OTA. Will I have to take any measures besides backing up my stuff to install the RUU?
Normally i wouldn't ask this, but the phone being limited to vodafone only sim cards makes me wonder if the RUU will affect any of it or if i have to do extra steps that I wouldn't with an unbranded phone.
Thanks,
Daniel

I think no one really knows yet. RUU is still too fresh. My guess, yes you can just install this on your branded Desire S. Your SIM lock will stay (this is never affected by a ROM). If you now have a Vodafone boot logo, you might lose that. Any apps put on there by Vodafone, you'll also lose, of course.

Actually that would work great for me, tired of the preinstalled crap As for not losing the sim lock, doesn't bothed me so much.
Kinda just want to update without issues, wondered how it would fit this specific situation.
Thanks for the reply m8
Update:
Installed the RUU without issues, phone seems to be working fine so far.. actually have more free memory than before (both without apps installed, did a reset before installing the RUU)
Wifi and 3G are working, phone is smooth but to be fair.. only installing apps atm.. glad to have the update

Hi,

Did you use anything else except the ics RUU from htcdev? I also have a stock branded TIM Italy Desire S last time updated also via OTA to android 2.3.5 and I want to upgrade to ICS. Sorry for posting in your thread, but I didn't find anything in the forums to answer my question.

I have a tim desire S if you want update it you must debrand you desire S but you can lose your original tim Rom and probably your lost the garantie..

I don't care about the guarantee because I don't use the phone in Italy from where it was bought. Debranding is also a good thing for me. Just want to know if it worked just with the RUU for hin or he needed extra stuff.

no need to unbrand. This RUU is WWE and can be used with all Desire S. Just run RUU if your phone is s-on.
Or you can follow my instruction if you want to use goldcard to update: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1866204

i have a t-mobile brand desire S. After install the RUU the brand is going away.

Did the update with the RUU. Everithing worked fine, the phone is now unbranded. Still has somebugs. On the homescreen some app shortcuts refuse to open on touch sometimes and apps crash when you click links inside them. Hope there will be at least a minor update to sove the bugs ..

That all depends on how you got root. I know on my EVO 3D shipped with hboot 1.50 in order to get temp root, then s-off I used the HTCDev site and I basically forfeited my warranty (that's my understanding) and HTC COULD hold me to that. I would encourage you not to run an RUU for a phone of a different model. I know in the EVO 3D forum people on Sprint were flashing the ICS update for Virgin and it did not go well for them. Not knowing the specifics for your phone I would encourage at least reading in the Sensation forums and seeing what they say.

If you want to run the latest Stock version I would say to unroot, do the OTA, then reroot. There are some great Sense ROMs for the Sensation, I would check into them...think stock (with regards to look and feel, kinda) on steroids. Here is a link to ViperS Sense 4.1 ROM for Sensation. Team Venom does awesome work and it will give you the Stock interface (Sense), with better speed and performance. There are many more options are you wanting to go stock rooted or stock unrooted?

ive looked and cant seem to find a flashable zip of the most recent tmo firmware. i found a nandroid but wifi didnt work. if someone knows where one is or can post one id appreciate it.

It's not going to work for you regardless. There is firmware you need included in update for Wi-Fi to work on that build.

Do you find wifi connectivity is better on the latest firmware? That's the reason I want it. I have the oldest and have bad wifi issues. Won't stay connected.

very sad too cus my phone blows now.

2.21 runs great with awesome data speeds. I was on that for weeks till yesterday, giving this 2.35 a test drive. 2.31 gave me random reboots.
I'm on T-Mobile US.
HTC One™ S

Hmm. So I was having even worse data/wifi issues after updating. Like I said the speed test app wouldn't work, wifi calling wouldn't work. So I found the newest ruu which is posted here in the [email protected] section, like 2.85 or whatever. Ran the ruu and I'm having zero issues. Something with taking the updates ota didn't agree with my phone. If you're having issues after the ota I'd suggest just running the ruu. Seems flawless now.
