If you're comming back from a different base,
( cyanogenmod-> sense or the other way around- for example)
You may try to fully wipe your device, before restoring backup
and flashing boot.img
That is anyway what i do in case of troubles
Edit: Nowadays, custom roms- as they mature- are/may be using different bases...
very often even updates of that same rom differ so much,
that full wipe before update becomes our good habit,
and- in many cases- strongly advised practise

Try that all I have 3 HTC sensation , desire s and explorer and only desire make my day hard I find stock ruu try to flash tough fastboot system boot and recovery and than lock bootloader and factory reset or ruu setup and nothing I am so angry maybe I will only destroy this phone and walk away

Well, just calm down and start from skratch:
1.lock bootloader
2. Run RUU
A) check pc drivers
B) check if they ( phone and pc) see each other-when phone in fastboot mode
Running RUU is a procedure given to us for granted by manufacturer,
when all else fails- RUU must not, and ussualy does not....
If you- in th mean time- have upgraded bootloader- should find appropriate stock ruu

Belive me it's not my first time to use RUU and adb/fastboot commands but no help
I find only 3 ruu for Europe hboot is 2.00.0002 on this link if you have more pls give me link for other RUU
CID : HTC__032
I use RUU_Saga_S_HTC_Europe_2.10.401.5_Radio_20.4801.30.0822U_3822.10.08.04_M_release_219480_signed

If you please, go to the help thread (you'll find it in Q&A)
Desire s HELP THREAD ask any question....
and ask about it there...
My b****y tab stopped pasting links- sorry,...
Anyway just go there and ask

Now the method of flashing is the same with all desire s phone. Not one of this device has another 'special' way of flashing.
There might be a small chance that u did the flash wrongly. I would suggest that u be specific(right down to the adb command) in the process when flashing the nandroid.
Any chance that u change the hboot since ur last nandroid?
If stock rom is all u wanted, we have many sense rom, even modded stock rom that has been clean(those require specific hboot though).
Now being being led to run a ruu. Are u s-off or unlock? if u are not sure check bootloader.
If you are unlock, check this out. Step 4 shows the the method of flash rom and boot.img from the fastboot.

I will try again I'm unlocked son 4ext classic recovery

[Q] Bricked HTC Sensation 4G ?!

Today , i successfully rooted my HTC Sensation 4G, everything was working totally fine, but then I wanted to install and custom ROM , called Super Villain Shensation.
I followed everything like the instructions told me to, but it says that the installation was aborted. and when i want to reboot my phone, it just stays on the white HTC logo screen, and doesnt do anything. I am able to get to the bootloader, but when i try recovery the same thing happens. what do i do !?
First of all, it is not bricked. Moving forward you need to re-download the ROM to make sure it is not a corrupted download, then try to flash again.
In order it would be:
-re download ROM again (I would personally suggest a ginger bread ROM that doesn't require you to flash firmware and such)
-download super wipe
-put them both in your sd card, somewhere where you could find the files
-go into your recovery and flash the super wipe zip (found in the Android Revolution thread)
-flash ROM
-let it boot (it will take about 5 minutes)
-done

Go to your bootloader like previous poster said and paste this file in the root of your sd card.
-Press the up volume rocker once you get the prompt to do it
If everything goes the way is suppose to go, you will be able to get into recovery again and flash whatever ROM you like.

What is you hboot if it's 1.18 or below and since you're r now s-on you need to run an ruu for ics that is closes to you stock rom. To upgrade your firmware to an ics compatible firmware. If it's 1.2x then you can htc-dev unlock and if you want s-off use jb then flash 4ext recovery even if your just htc-dev unlock. If your just htc-dev unlocked in 4ext enable smart flash. Now your good to go!

now I stuck in bootloader... now I just wanna install some room s-off,s-on no matter :| but I can't run recovery,
I trying this
STEP 5 - CHANGING BACK TO S-ON - PROCEED WITH CAUTION. ONLY DO THIS IF YOU ABSOLUTELY HAVE TO. BEWARE THERE IS A RISK OF BRICKING READ BEFORE GOING TO STEP 1.
YOU MUST Follow this correctly otherwise you could semi-brick your device (Semi bricks recovery by re-flashing RUU). If you follow it correctly YOU WILL GET S-ON SUCCESSFULLY -confirmed by other users
I cannot be held responsible if anything goes wrong but i will help in every situation. 2 unrecoverable bricks so far. 1 due to not flashing RUU
First time i did this with a custom ROM installed - semi-bricked my device (couldn't boot due to security warning as S-on doesn't work with custom roms), restored it using RUU.exe
Second time after S-off i took the following steps and successfully went back to S-ON without any problems and booted up into stock rom.
Confirmed to work by several others as well as myself
1. Follow Step 4 above to get SuperCID - Skip if you already have it
2. Restore your official stock Rom: Just click here to download an Official Rom RESTORE STOCK EVEN IF YOU JUST RESTORED IT RECENTLY OR ARE ALREADY ON STOCK ROM. This is to ensure nothing gets changed in stock for S-on to be successful
So if you are already on a stock ROM or you just went back to stock ROM, i don't care, restore the stock ROM again using the RUU.exe if you don't want to be bricked!
Connect to your phone in charging mode. click the "RUU_pyramid_*****.exe" file you downloaded and follow on screen instructions.
3. Make sure when you download the RUU. download the same or similiar RUU version as your phone came with (e.g. Tmous or EU or Asian etc). As long as you install a stock rom similiar to what you had you should be ok. FAILURE TO DO THIS MAY BRICK YOUR PHONE.
4. Switch your phone on now and let it boot for the first time and just skip through the welcome screen.
5. Go back to Step 4 - SUPERCID and go through 1 to 7 to get to the fastboot bootloader. (so just do what you did before, put adb files in local disk, adb reboot bootloader etc)
6. enter the command "fastboot oem writesecureflag 3" (Thanks Dazweeja)
7. Reboot into bootloader using "fastboot reboot-bootloader" or remove & reinsert the battery and press power on while keeping hold of volume down.
8. Bootloader should now read Pyramid PVT Ship S-ON RL.
9. Remove and reinsert the battery. Press power on as normal
You should now have S-on back and you can return your device or do whatever it is covered again under warranty.
10. IF IT DOESN'T REBOOT and bootloader says ***Security Warning**
Remove and re-insert the battery and go back into bootloader and holding Volume Down +power button select fastboot
11. Run RUU_Pyramid_***.exe to reflash stock rom. (the one u just downloaded in step 1) and then reboot. It should work now
The above method works successfully. So do not under any circumstances try this without going back to stock first using Ruu.exe. and Follow the instructions correctly if you want S-on WITHOUT problems Any doubts or questions PM me and i will get back to you and help you.
Donations welcome as i had a very shaky night experimenting and bricking my device (and having a panic attack over it) to find a safe method for successfully getting S-on back for all you out there complaining about warranty.

Need help with ICS upgrade from HTC

Hi all, I have been waiting long for the official upgrade to ICS from JTC which I was over the moon when I checked software update on my phone and found it was available, I downloaded it , hit install, the phone shut down , I closed my eyes and opened them to see that the phone didn't finish the setup and Instead had the green Android man with a triangle next to it with (!) Inside , first I left it dor an hour and when nothing happened, I had to take the battery off and restarted the phone and tried it again but no luck.
My phone has the original Rom on it , not rooted , has s-off and has clockworks mod recovery on it , I even tried to install the update from recovery boot but kept coming with error and installation aborted , can anyone help me please? Much appreciated

Try this First, use 4ext recovery to format all partitions except sdcard, install stock ROM by running RUU and see if that helps, IF NOT use the below method
I got this working for me after I tried getting to stock from ICS custom rom and semi bricked my sensation, you use this at your own risk:
1. Use htc dev unlock method and then use 4ext recovery formatted all partitions except sdcard
2. Install custom rom , a 2.3.4 rom (use Android Revolution HD 3.6.13), can be downloaded from "http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=14191938&postcount=1" as multiupload is not working so couldn't download any rom from there, so used above one
3. Reboot sensation, used revolutionary to get S-OFF
4. RUU was not flashing so do this : Relocked my phone by running "Fastboot OEM lock" with phone in fastboot USB and then reboot the phone
5. From "http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1193033", Used METHOD 2 - ENG HBOOT [both Flash ENG HBOOT & Download an RUU and then Flash RUU (rom.zip)]
6. Once phone boots up, run the STOCK RUU.exe as normal (required else phone would not install OTA though downloads it without problem),
7. Once done and rebooted, used commands from "http://theunlockr.com/2011/10/03/how-to-unroot-the-htc-sensation-4g/" to put S_ON back
8. Result, relocked, S-ON and on STOCK with OTA installing without problem
Please tell if this helps
Dont make it s-off just install the ota to get rid off custom recovery
Then install the OTA
ore flash Mikes FW and then his stiock ICS
and has clockworks mod recovery on it
you need only stock recovery
jast flash orginal ruu and chek for update and install it

[Q] About downgrading HBOOT to 1.17

I have a question, how could i downgrade my HBOOT to 1.17 and if i do, if i restore my nandroid backup of my stock gb, will i loose my root? And custom recovery? And will that restored backup contain the software version, ruu name, radio and firmware and kernel? Thank you very much. And is it safe to have different ruu when you're with CID 1111111?
I followed the SUPERCID method of flashing thats why im on CID 11111111 i just want to make sure and verify if my stock rom was asia or wwe_asia.
Any response would be greatly appreciated. Noob here.
Sent from my HTC Sensation XE with Beats Audio
I have done this, when I send back my phone for repair. You can download the 1.17 firmware here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1459767 and flash it. If your on ICS now for sure it wont boot after flashing the 1.17 delete the firmware file PG58IMG.zip from your sd card (put your sd card on a card reader ), coz no other way from the phone you can delete that. Make sure you already have your nandroid backup, after deleting boot again at recovery then restore your nandroid gb. then you should be able to restore your gb.

You will be rooted same as you were when you performed you Nandroid backup. If you flash RUU you will lose root and custom recovery. Your radio, ril, and kernel will be what they were at the time of your backup. You don't need to doSuper CID again if you already did it once.

Okay, since you're currently running ics you should flash the h boot from 3.12 firmware in the link I posted previously because it contains the 1.23 h boot which runs both GB ROMS and ICS ROMS. Download a 3.12 firmware, you have already done super cid so any will work. After you finish your download extract the contents and locate the h boot. It should be PMG58IMG, place it on the root of your sd csrd. Now boot into downloader. Remove battery, replace it, hold vol - and press power it should see the PM58IMG zip and ask if you want to update, choose yes. When it finishes reboot you phone. Now reboot into recovery and install your backup. After you are back to your GB backup you can either remain on 1.23 h boot, you'll still be s off, or flash the 1.17 h boot in the link I posted above.

Okay, since you're currently running ics you should flash the h boot from 3.12 firmware in the link I posted previously because it contains the 1.23 h boot which runs both GB ROMS and ICS ROMS. Download a 3.12 firmware, you have already done super cid so any will work. After you finish your download extract the contents and locate the h boot. It should be PMG58IMG, place it on the root of your sd csrd. Now boot into downloader. Remove battery, replace it, hold vol - and press power it should see the PM58IMG zip and ask if you want to update, choose yes. When it finishes reboot you phone. Now reboot into recovery and install your backup. After you are back to your GB backup you can either remain on 1.23 h boot, you'll still be s off, or flash the 1.17 h boot in the link I posted above.

I extracted the h boot PM58IMG zip only when I downgraded. Don't worry your radio, etc are in your backup.
H boot 1.23 runs GB and ICS. 1.17 only works with GB.

[Q] Sensation bricked for flashing wrong kernel.

Ok mi new and i think i bricked the Htc..
I try to make the S-off and i used the tool called " htc one x all in one kit" and when make a flash recovery for CWN 5.82.7 touch the device was reset.. But i think a made a mistake to flash to the kernel 2.6.394.. Cuz when i make that the device dont boot and only see a white htc freeze screen.
The recovery works fine.. I unlocked the bootloader but in cant fix it.. I need a custom kernel for this ? And where i can find it.
Please help.. Only had this device 15 days and i dont know if warranty can claim this.
if you can get to recovery just flash a stock rooted rom it includes a kernel

Do i need a stock kernel for sensation ?
you trying to flash a cm rom?
no i dont have stock kernel
try this one
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424345
still bricked
hmm Are you SOFF ? or just htc-dev unlocked ?
anyways first to get out of the stuck screen
do this
extract the boot.img from the CM9-RC1 zip file
keep that in adb/fastboot folder
then flash it from phone connected in fastboot
"fastboot flash boot boot.img" (remove quotes)
alternatively
use the tool kit to use this boot image and flash it 9how? --i dont know coz i havent used it )

Or you could just run a RUU if the method above is too difficult.

to get wifi working
get 4EXT recovery..
if you already have it
then reflash the rom ..without any wipe (remeber dont do any wipe) ..but just before flashing rom ...enable smartflash in 4EXT->tools
that would solve your wifi issue

because he probably did what I just did. A quick google search on how to root a HTC Sensation (XE) will bring up a page saying you can use this tool for the Sensation, even though the tool is for the One X.
i did the exact same thing he did, as the tool says you should flash the Kernel. meaning I too am stuck with a phone that get stuck on the HTc white splash screen...
i don't know about this guy but my phone says:
*** UNLOCKED ***
PYRAMID PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-1.29.0000
eMMC-boot
and it goes to the white splash screen if you select any of the options...
really need some help too D: !!!!
If your phones boot loader is unlocked
With the htcdev unlock tool and your already using 4ext then make sure smart flash is enabled (recovery > tools > enable smart flash) then do a full wipe and reflash the rom.

well, some of us, like myself didn't use a guide from this site. but come here to look for our solution. for example the guide I followed made no mention of this 4ext...
hell, even after spending my day trying to fix my phone, I still don't know how to install a ROM properly...
But that's your problem you used tutorial and even tools for completely different phone. Furthermore, you didn't read tutorials here, but you have the nerve to crawl here to find help. That's hypocritical to say at least. That being said, XDA's purpose is NOT to fix your problems that arised from your inability to think before you act. If it's tutorials weren't good enough for you then, it's help can't be enough for you now.
