[Q] arrr help

bit of a noob trying to put a nice rom on my phone..... cant get by the first bit lol,
2 problems
1 followed noob guide as regards to the revolutionary key, go the key (all case correct ect) but only got invalid key every time. So, thought maybe it did work , i better check the hboot..... Can i get into the hboot NO!!! just keeps starting the phone every time. Yes i hold volume down and press power, yes i have disabled fastboot and i have tried taking battery out..... nothing, just loads up normally every time!!
Im on a vodafone sensation , just down loaded the new 2.34 automatically, have i done somthing for the hboot screen to be nonexsistant now?

get into recovery through ADB.. with Command prompt. its on the guide as well, download adb
http://developer.android.com/guide/developing/tools/adb.html

ok down loaded adb from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1192300
theres 2 applications fast boot and adb, with phone connected to pc both only flash up and then disapear there command box thing. Have i done something to block or skip the hboot screen?
this is turning into an absolute nightmare! my hd2 was so easy lol all this and i havnt even s-off yet, let alone recovery, wipe and rom ( ithink)

would a factory reset bring it back?

Did you back up your phone prior because if you did, your can start from there, if not and you must, factory reset should help solve your problem.

Well managed to s off god knows how lol. I found in the file I down loaded an called flash, I knew the flash would do nothing as the phone was still locked ,the cod stayed open for this and obviously it could not flash... But It the end it put my phone into the boot screen where I saw I was still on "on" so back to drawing board, now I new the key was case sensitive but I had still managed to get a capital "i" mistaken for a small "l". Only replied this when I copied and pasted to note pad where it was obvious. What a donuts I am. So now the beta key worked and I'm "off". Wahoo!. Now I think I have to root the phone and then I can put energy ROM... I hope. Thanx for your help guys. But I'm sure iv still got the hard bit to do now lol

Congrats! Just remember to back up before flashing in the off chance the file you downloaded is corrupted or you dislike the results

+1..... i also recommend this and i also recommend downloading the ruu for your phone. saves alot of time when tryin to turn your phone back to s-on. ive seen alot of post of people askin what ruu they should download for whatever reason (mainly warranty issues) when all they had to do is check and download the correct ruu before flashing anything on there phone.

Please Help. My phone won't reboot.

I don't know whats going on. I was about to flash a 4.0 Rom today however when I first booted into the Hboot It said an update was required. At first I said no don't apply. At which point it then said reboot device now. Which I did and it took me back to normal phone opperation. I then booted it again into the Hboot and instead of saying no this time to the update I said Yes. In which it updated. HOWEVER once it was done my phone just runs thrut boot up cycle.
I noticed after the update completed the purple box at the top no longer said Revolutionary it now just says Locked.
I wasn't able to access recovery at first but after looking around XDA I was able to figure out to. I removed the rom zip that I was originally planning on loading. I then ran superwipe and tried reloading the Rom that I was using prior to these problems. The phone still just cycles thru the reboot screen. Over and over again.
When I boot into the Hboot I have access to everything but It still says locked at the top.
PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I don't know how to get my phone restarted. I'm positive with that icon saying locked that it has something to do with it. How do I get it changed.

This might help.... Flashing ICS is little bit different...

[Q] HTC Sensation rebooting after root

Hi all, I am sorry if this is already posted or answered but I spent all day yesterday searching and reading and cannot find the answer.
I have 2 Htc sensations that I messed up some how and would be very grateful if you could help me with them.
Phone 1 has been rooted for a long time and in preparation for ICS I flashed T-mobil: Download 3.32 from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1459767
and now the phone works but it will randomly reboot. I have wiped the cache, delvak cache and battery stats.
I am completely lost please help.
Phone 2 I think I may have messed up real bad here is what I did to it.
I rotted it from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1192300
I got to step 2 sub step 6 and now it continuously reboots it starts with the white screen with HTC on it then goes to another white screen that says HTC Quietly brilliant for a second and repeats.
Please help me yes I am a noob and grateful for any help.

Wow that was a fun ride (not really) it appears I did not flash the PG58IMG file correctly, after I flashed it correctly I got Insert Coin installed and so far it seems that they both are working. only time will tell.
Thanks anyway guys.

If you are trying to install the latest firmware and having the HTC log restart problem. Try to super wipe on the recovery and install first the 3.12 firmware.

Did you install supercid after root?

Both phones are working fine but I have a new question, I can not get the voice dialer to work ie I long press the button on my plantronics bt and say call tom.
I have tried vlingo from the market and this fix
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1133246
but nothing has worked. is it just not working in Insert Coin rom?

Did I just brick my phone?
I tried to flash the 1.17 firmware and the last step failed, now it wont boot at all just a black screen the only thing it will do is the charge lite will come on bit it stays on after I unplug it.

which of the 2 phones you are talking about?
In a previous post you said that problem was solved, now what?
Also, it would be better to know what your bootloader says and what you were attempting to do before black screen.

Sounds like a brick to me, but since the problem is unclear, it's possible to fix. I wish I could help but I don't understand your issue to be honest!

I had 3.32 on it with Insert Coin ICS and thought I have 2 so might as well restore one to factory setting that's when I tried to flash the 1.17 and it never started again.
T-Mobile HTC Sensation 4G
The other one is working so I am not messing with it.

I had the same thing happen to me and it was over for the phone. Took it in to tomo and told them it died and after I charged it and went to turn it on, bam, went black and never came back. They never got it to work either and replaced it for me

You mean 1.17 is the hboot?
In this case you installed a hboot for GB while on ICS rom. Obviously it won't work.
If you want to downgrade to GB you can try to run a GB RUU while in bootloader - fastboot usb (if you can still reach it)

He was in the process of going back to gb and that's 1 of the steps. U have to flash a gb firmware to go back to it from ics. I've done it countless times with no issues.

Oh yes I have made many times too buf, if he changed firmware without changing rom obviously get stuck, and this seems happening to him.

No what's happened to him is what happened to me. It's like it gets fried or something. The screen goes black and u can't turn it on or get into bootloader. Tmobile told me when it happened it was dead and got me a new 1

[HELP]HTC Sensation XE Brick

Hi,
i dont know how to start...
First problem with my HTC was yesterday, when i call phone shutdown after 1-2 min everytime i try it. It just shutdown instantly and reboot.
Today phone shutdown again but now it wont start. When i pull battery out for 3-5 min it will start, boot and shutdown. Now i have problems even to start it. It shutdown from bootloader and recovery too. Everytime it boots there was dialog "updating apps" but i didnt flashed anything for about 1 month, last app inistaled maybe 10 days before ? Nothing new.
When connect to USB its QHSUSB_DLOAD, phone looks off but i can feel its little bit hot on SD card, SIM slots.
I have new MB from HTC service, it comes with 1.29 HBOOT but i unlocked it and changed HBOOT everything was OK for 2 months.
Phone was 6 months on same ROM no changes.
InsertCoin 5.5.0
Can someone help me ?
Will give u info from bootloader if it power on
HTC Sensation XE
SuperCid
InsertCoin 5.5.0
.....
EDIT:
Ok so power on failed... Powered 3x times after 2 hours of trying it but only for 1 sec and then off.
HBOOT 1.27
S-OFF
Battery is OK tested on another one HTC Sensation (non-XE)
When is phone on charged LED doesnt do anything. Like phone is dead but it sucessful sometimes to get in bootloader for 1-2 second or boot into recovery but it dont finish because phone will turn OFF ( not recovery failure) it even turn off while it stay in bootloader and dont do anything

Lets try charge it over night... Thanks for your reply.
Will give u feedback

If that doesn't fix it then it could be time to replace your battery. Do you have another you can test with or are you still running on the stock one? I'm a heavy user and usually need a new battery every 9 months or so.
It's about time for me to replace my ankhor battery now as well...

I think you havea USB Brick, more common on older devices. You will have to download an RUU, Extract the ROM.zip from it...Rename to PG58IMG.zip and flash through bootloader. Someone else had a similar issue and doing the details above fixed it for him.
Run the RUU and open windows task manager, When ARUWIZARD.exe appears right click and open file location. Copy ROM.zip and paste to desktop, rename to PG58IMG.zip and flash through bootloader. At least trying this will also revert to stock for a warranty repair / replace

Hello, wanted to do this but few hours before phone went off finally. No more QHSUSB_DLOAD no LED nothing... I will try to power it on by some magic/voodoo :laugh: but i think it doesnt help. Must be HW fault because phone problems changes without and software changes, flashing. :crying:

Stuck at the HTC logo...

So, before everyone says to use the search button, im gonna say that i used it and didnt find anything, but to my problem. So i just then took out my HTC Sensation from the cupboard and decided to start "playing with it". So i read tutorials about rooting, and finally got it rooted with the help of this:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1632553
After i got it rooted, i thought you can put roms just like with Samsung phones. So i downloaded this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2115520 I put it on the sdcard and flashed via CWM and now its stuck, even tho it said everything went ok.
My question is that is this fixable and do you have to do something with HTC phones before flashing a rom?

Hi
Greetings,
According to the info you gave I belive your "s-on"
Your phone is recoverable.
Download 4ext recovery for HTC sensation .
Install that recover and boot into recover,
Recover>tools>enable smartflash
After enableing smart flash, flash the Rom you want your phone will boot.
Remember to make a clean installation(wipe everything except sdcard)

Ok, i'll try this in a few hours. Gotta get some sleep now... it's 8am here in Finland and ive been up whole night figuring this out myself, but yeah off to bed now and thanks btw.
EDIT: I cant get anywhere from the white screen with the green logo, so how can i use the 4ext recovery? As you can see, im a huge noob with this stuff...

Hi
Greetings
Remove your battery and reinsert it ,
Press and hold volume down+power button till phone boots. This menu is called bootloader.
Select recovery here by pressing volume down buttons and press power button to boot into recover .

Nope. The tutorial didnt say so, it only said that after flashing CWM to flash SuperSU and thats it. After that i just straight flashed the rom? Should i install the kernel aswell?
