Solved by flashing new stock HTC ROM!, but thanks for the quick replies!
Original message:
I NEED HELP!
My HTC Sensation chrashed after i tried to root it (i didn't have mutch luck with it) and i can't boot it up normally, and the factory reset in the VolumeUp+Power menu doesn't do anything.
I don't care if my phone is wiped, i only want it to work again!
I much appreciate it if someone could help.
The problem:
when i try to boot it up normally it show the HTC logo, and stays like that forever... i can't do anything.
when i try to do a factory reset in the bootloader menu (VolumeUp+Power) it gives the clockworkMod recovery menu (i installed it) but when i do a factory reset from there it says "Formatting /data" and also other stuff but then gives a error saying: "E:format_volume: make_extf4fs failed on /dev/block/mmcblk1p2"
it says "Data wipe complete." and it exits into the menu, and nothing chanced...
the problem is that if i reboot from there the HTC logo comes up and stays there...
i think i corrupted android, but is there any way to get it back?
it is a HTC Sensation, it was running android 4.0.2, all the other things i don't know because i can't look at them.
if you need more information ask me!

Have i to flash a stock rom? how can i do without remove warranty? in the case it does'nt work i have to take it to htc center
You probobly fried your EMMC chip when you removed your battery.
it would be best to return it in for repair.
I think you may have same problem with me before. No choice but to bring it to repair.

It was s-off before? Can you boot 2 recovery?
It's unlikely your chip is fried. This happened to my phone. You need to get into recovery - restart holding volume down button - and reflash a ROM, any one should do. The phone should reboot from there.
Edit: thus assumes you have a ROM stored on your phone, and you have Clockwork recovery or similar. If not, you can use adb to push a ROM to your card and reflash that. Adb comes with Android Developer Kit. Search!
Peace.

Same problem as topic poster, i,ve been messing a lot with custom roms on win 6.5 phones, but I havn´t done anything fancy on my Desire S , as to rooting or custom roms. (work phone!) Now I´m just curious as how I get a recovery going, when the PC doesent recognice the device when USB connected.
The eng-off file (mine is ON) with the .bat file cant connect to phone, and maybe im better off sending it to repair, but my pride wants me to solve it myself.
-Damn phone just went AWOL last night after an marked Angry Birds update, rebooted it a couple of times, because of a lot of process errors, and then all dead. (white HTC screen on -until morning)
Have the latest FOTA (DK, Nordic)
ROM: SAGA PVT SHIP S-ON RL
Hboot: 0,98.0002
Radio: 3805.06.02.03_M
Are there any ninja tricks or is it just a "bite down", send in?

Maybe best sending it in if that's a viable option.
You say it's not rooted? With stock ROM? If there is a ROM on the sdcard that you can boot then try that - power + volume up + volume down will reboot the phone, try pressing volume down as it reboots to get into recovery.
If you can't (by pressing volume down) then power off and restart (holding volume down). I had to do a battery pull to power off - if you do this while the phone is off as it reboots, and leave it out for 30 secs you should avoid any danger of bricking the phone (which has happened with some people when removing battery while phone is in this state).
Good luck!
Peace

"ROM on SDcard": what format would that be in? RUU.exe or?
I can get into recovery menu (HBOOT) but chosing recovery option results in "a green recycle icon with an arrow on black background" screen, a few seconds then it virbrates 6-8 times, and then fades to black, so to speak!
Factory reset option: Locks the HBOOT screen and nothing but a battery pull, will change that.
I MAY have pulled the battery and not left it out for the 30 sec bricking danger senario, that I wasn´t aware of, until resently.
So the diag. is that is probably bricked!
Thanks for the reply

Rom on sdcard would have to be *.zip to be flashable. If you're unrooted + stock then you won't have Clockwork recovery or similar.
Tough that factory reset doesn't give any joy. These devices.....
Looking like masonry then, unless someone else can help.

surprisingly i got the same issue yesterday after i installed proxuser's official htc rom. Everything started fine went through setup so i assume it's not because of the rom because i don't think the phone would've started up in the first place. Anyway i am about to try and install some different roms and have also copied a backup over from my other desire s.
Will let you guys know if it worked.
Hi,
My girlfriend was updating her desire s by updating over wifi, after about 15 minutes it stucked. i had to restart it but unfortunately i couldn't boot. teher is just a phone with exclamation mark on the screen. how can i recover it? please help me asap...
when you see the mark...try holding vol up and down together and power at the same time... it should give you a menu with the option of reboot, try this for starters and see if t will boot.... or try power down at the same time as power and see if you get the fastboot menu where you can storage... try these first buddy

i was in recovery by doing what you said. i firstly tried to reboot by selecting but it didn't work. after that, i selected "apply update from sd" but i think there is no update file in sd, so i couldn't update. lastly, i wiped cache and data-cache but they didn't work either in my opinion, my desire s have to visit warranty service for a few days
I sent it to warranty and they decided to change mainboard. I hope i won't wait weeks for it...

Hi all,
I recently bought a used sensation from ebay and now it won't boot. I allready read a couple posts in this forum. Did the adb reboot and adb reboot bootloader and didn't work. So I think it's not rooted. What exactley happens is, the will not boot. It stays blank and the led lights too, but when plug it into my laptop\pc, it gets reconized and able to install the adb drivers to it. The led lights are then lit and pressing the power button kills it for a second and then restarts. Getting the same connection to my pc but no boot. I then installed adb tools trying to reboot the bootloader, but when i type in adb devices, I get nothing listed. So when i tried adb reboot i get error: no device found
Just moments ago i installed a new jdk and currently installing android sdk to make a proper connection with the device.
Any advice?? Pff
I think it phone has been completely wiped so there is no any OA Rom installed. Try booting in to recovery then see if its rooted then install any custom Rom. The most safest way is install RUU from ur PC which restore it to original.

still no luck
I've read the post noob guide (adb,sdk..), done every step, still it won't see my phone
Run RUU from PC because it phone is recognized by pc that's best way.

Just check which recovery have u got if clockwork then flash any custom Rom again. U need 2 use card reader to transfer rom

can I use one of these stock ruu's?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1228648
Ok so from what I understand is that even without being in bootloader or recovery. Just by being connected, I can install stock ruu to my phone and then everything else? I'm downloading one of the ruu now
Ok from what i read, I cannot get into the bootloader or recovery cause it's maybe hard bricked. Is there a fix for this?

Ok sorry for the late reply. Due to my "lovely" bandwidth, I finally found the stock rom for my device, version tmous 1.45.531.1. I ran the setup and everything went fine, until i got an error error 1105 or something that it's not compatible with my device. How can that be if it'.s not from another vendor. It says t mobile on top lol. Does this mean that i'm screwed?
Still haven't got it to boot. Only led is lit when plugged in charger or pc. The screen stays blank and unplugged it does nothing. Only if there was a way to get it in fastboot or just to see life in my device
Hold volume down plus power button. You will be in fastbboot .
first press and hold the vol - button then just press the power button without holding it, but keep holding the vol -
wait 10 seconds
release the vol - button
press power button again
now you should be in fastboot
on your computer in command prompt type fastboot devices and see if your computer recognizes the phone
My htc inspire has 4 white triangle around black htc logo.
This happened because i tried rerooting my phone. The reason why i was rerooting my phone because I all the roms i downloaded from rom manager kept giving me the E: can't mount/cache/recovery and some other errors. Now all I can do is turn on my phone and see the htc logo and white triangles with exclamation marks. When i hook it up to the computer and then disconnect it, a white screens shows up with stuff like this:
ace pvt eng s-off hboot-0.85.2425
microp-0438 radio-26.06.06.30_M
....

Then Ruu is highlighted in orange
Please help!!
Can you boot into recovery mode by power off your phone..then vol down and hold power for a few keep hold down vol down til it boots in bootloader and go.to recovery..
download a Rom through the threads not Rom manager for the time being and once you get your Rom d/l go into recovery advance mount USB plug in phone then view files add your Rom and flash..

First why are you still using rom manager no one uses that crap anymore. Download xda from market and get your roms directly from the forum. We all use 4ext recovery to flash our roms. What it looks like is you deleted your rom when you rerooted. As Cyrax said see if you can hboot up with power button and volume down at same time and enter recovery that way full wipe and flash your rom. Make sure you download a rom and place it in root of sd card first. May need adapter to add rom to sd.

You can use rom manager to enter recovery so you don't need your volume button for that. Flash your rom that way then get rid of manager. Latest Tom's will give you 4ext which you can enter by holdind power button like your shutting down but pick reboot then recovery to enter 4ext when ever you want to flash a rom.

Does adb recognize your phone. If so adb reboot-bootloader. An go from there.

I could be wrong, but you might just not be holding the buttons long enough. That kind of stuff is typically built into the hardware, like holding the power button to reboot a laptop. The ADB reboot method should work though...if you have USB debugging enables (I imagine it would be by default with that ROM).
Had same issue with viper one I flashed the firewater hboot after I adb reboot-bootloader and fixed it… oh I also wiped the boot and dalvik cache then reinstalled hope this helps
