[RADIO] flashing radio?

I've got Sensation (Z710e) form my friend, that's need tuning. So far i managed:
Unlock bootloader @ htcdev
CWM recovery
S-OFF with ControlBear (HBOOT 1.27.0000)
Now some ROMs require some patching before (HOX doesn't have this) and this is strange to me.
About phone says:
Android version : 4.0.3
HTC Sense : 3.6
SW Number: 3.32.401.3
(Advanced)
Baseband version: 11.76A.3504.00U_11.24A.3504.31_M
What is the catch? May i do damage to phone (i ****ed up i900 omnia with this radio ****, and i still have some phobia )? How to flash firmware (is it the same)?

Here you go. Tells you how to do it. I would suggest supercid also, if you aren't already.

I forgot to write. Already did that. As final step, downloaded 3.33 (universal) booted, instaled, but on my phone info again says 3.32. Which is weird. Do a i need this 3.32 if i want DarkForest rom (which required 3.33)?

if you're able to use fastboot commands -
fastboot getvar version-main
that will tell you what firmware is on your phone

What's happening when you flash? I would also suggest 4ext touch recovery.

You can flash 4ext over cwm through fastboot commands. Your download might be bad also.

Not sure why you wouldn't have a custom rom after flashing. Is your phone rebooting to stock rom after flashing?
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using xda app-developers app

? Very strange, you placed Rom on sd card, wiped cash and dalvik then installed Rom from sd card, rebooted and its not installed ? And your using 4 ext recovery ? What exactly was the procedure in order that you did? Maybe I can help?

All done besides 4EXT. Now i'm gone use 4EXT and try. BOOT.img doesnt need flashing on any ROM? ( Every ONE X have boot.img reflashed....)
EDIT:
Worked. InsertCoin is up and running. Guess full wipe was problem (from installer)

Do I need to s-off my phone before flashing ROM.

I am new to this phone section . I have unlocked bootloader , flashed recovery and rooted the phone.But when i flashed ROM it struck at bootanimation screen . I waited for about half hr. But it doesnt get past bootanimation screen. I tried two ROM and had the same problem with both of them. So i am wondering if i need to s-off my phone before flashing any ROM?

Enable smart flash from recovery...
S off not compulsory for installing custom Rom of same firmware..
Sent from my HTC Sensation using xda app-developers app

Yes, as Itsakash mentioned you need to have the smartflash option enabled in 4ext recovery. If you have cwm recovery just flash 4ext over it. See HERE

Can you please give me link to download gapp for JB?

Hi,
Yes.
Make a nandrooid backup.
Place ROM and Gapps on sd card,format all partitions (except sd card),enable smartflash,and flash ROM and Gapps straight away.

Thanks. One more question,did I really need to go s-off,if I could flashing roms with s-on?

you can flash any rom you want if you have always enabled first smartflash
the difference between S-ON and S-OFF is that in S-ON devices when flashing a rom it hasn't the ability to write the boot partition by itself(here is where it comes smartflash)
in S-OFF devices there is no need for that feature
that's why most of us with S-ON are using 4ext recovery(smartflash)

Thanks for the suggestion, can i flash Android Revolution HD 6.8.0 | ICS | Android 4.0.3 (Ice Cream Sandwich) + Sense UI 3.6 + Beats Audio?
If yes, do i need to flash radio?

Nope dont need to flash radio
And i advice you to install 4ext Recovery (the Best)
Put the rom into your SD card and Just flash and a new kernel if you want
Don't forget to do à full wipe !!!
Then if you see a big battery drain it's normal the battery needs some cycles (full charge all the Night->use the phone until percentage is about 10-15% Then recharge it to 100% and it should be OK

[Q] Screen doesn't detect a little fast gestures

Hi,
I had an unresponsive screen issue which got away using that method existing in the touchscreen issues thread in which I had to get the battery out and let it be still over a night then recharge without touching the screen ,but there's something more and also more strange:
My screen got alright, but it does not recognize a little fast gestures, like pulling the notification bar down a llllittle fast, or playing fruit Ninja a bit excitedly! I have to use somewhat slower gestures so that my cell phone recognizes them. Otherwise it just detects some random touches only. Can you help me?

[Q] CM 10.1

Hi Guys. I looked on the CM site for the HTC Sensation, and the only 10.1 version, or only 10 version are all nightly builds. How stable are they? Or am I looking in the wrong place? :cyclops:

HTC Sensation does not have official CM support for CM 10.1, we have it only till CM 10...
If you want CM 10.1 stable builds, Albinoman887 has a Kang based on the latest version of CM 10.1 and in my opinion it is one of the most stable and best Android 4.2 roms for the sensation.
