download a 3.33 RUU from this thread - there is a faster mirror on one of the last few pages.
Then put phone into bootloader, conntect to pc and run the RUU exe file

Try installing 4EXT recovery and before flashing rom, enable SMART-FLASH in options. Then install any rom. It will install

do the extra 1 step from the SON guide ..if you still have problems ..then reflash the rom ..without any wipe ..just enable smartflash before flashing rom thats all

It means the diag file failed which in turn means you have updated firmware and you need to do a workaround solution.. Which is there in sim unlock guide.. Last few pages (written by kgs1992)

Enable smart flash in recovery...
If u r trying to flash ics Rom then u required ics firmware 3.33
Sent from my Sensation using xda app-developers app

If you don't already have it please download 4ext recovery. Then you will be able to enable smart flash. Because your S on you must use smart flash every time you flash a rom. Also make sure you have correct firmware as said in above post. Because your s on you must flash a bit differently than us with s off. I'm going to send you a link to flashing roms with s on. Skip down to where it talks about smart flash. This link will also show you how to permanently enable smart flash. Hope this is helpful.

Hi,
What ROM did you try to install?
You are on a GingerBread firmware.
You cannot load any ICS ROMS.
And you cannot change firmware or radio with s-on.
S-off for you would be possible using Revolutioary.
Look HERE

[Q] How to root and change stock rom for XE ICS

Dear All
I have sensation XE stock rom ICS 3.23.206.151 HBOOT 1.27
Need to :
1- S-OFF
2- Root
3- change the Europian stock rom to Arabic stock rom
I know how to S-OFF from HTCDev website
I have the ICS 4.0.3 Arabic stock rom (Is there Gilly Bean?)
Now what to do? I need steps with links to details

If you haven't already used the HTC Dev website, DON'T!!!!
Doing so will make this process MORE difficult, not less.
The HTC Dev website will not S-Off your device. It will only unlock part of the bootloader. You want the whole thing unlocked with true S-Off.
And it's easier to do it on the 1.27 HBoot than it used to be.
See this thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1661631
Ganeshp is a super helpful guy and pretty much any question you have will already been answered by him in that thread.
If you have already done the HTC Deve unlock, use this guide to S-Off instead...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1614617
It's a little more complicated, but it's making up for the problems that HTC Dev causes.
One of these two guides will get you S-Off. Once you have that accomplished loading a new ROM is the easy part.
But one step at a time. Get S-Off and if you have questions on a new ROM install come abck and I'll help you with that.

Thanks, I did not do the HTCDev unlock yet
so,
1 - I will use JB TOOL to unlock (S-Off)
2 - I will use One click root tool
both from : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1661631
Then what?

Buy the app from the Play Store. Its cheap. And it will flash the recovery for you. Plus the app is a great manager of all kinds of stuff dealing with recovery.

ok thanks. Still a bit confused. On the guide you linked, it says in update 2 - it is strongly recommended to follow the SOFF JB guide by auggie2k if you already did HTCdev unlock and got unlocked bootloader . for guide
So do i do this or not?
Sorry for confusion

you can't flash the RUU you want cause in that case it probably won't work, you have to make sure that the RUU that you are going to flash has the same software version of your current main version.... if you follow this you will successfully install the RUU :good:

To flash ruu from any region you have to be s-off and Super cid as far as I know.

I'm sorry mate. Not true
You will need s-off if you want to downgrade the software or use ruu from another region.
But as long as it the right ruu for your phone it won't cause problems

Hi,
If you s-off,you might consider SuperCID as well.
Then, you can flash ANY RUU you like .
