if you mean the juopunutbear hboot no i don't mean that
look at the rom's zip
open that zip ,search for the boot.img and extract it
then follow the steps from the link i gave you
see if it works

i can think only one thing then
use ruu.exe to return the device into completely stock
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1672425
look also here for ruu
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=36585940
then you have to root again
but don't be afraid you won't lose S-OFF

I've flashed before the latest stock rom with PG58IMG.zip from bootloader
is it the same result or there are more thing's with ruu flash ?
Thank's
Not to ask the stupid question, but is the phone connected to WiFi when you're checking for MAC address? It wont show one sometimes if its switched off or disconnected

... yes, otherwise I would have connected to wifi
usually with different samsung galaxy I rule this problem by installing a custom rom
I also tried a cyanogen to see the result

no it's the same way
unfortunately i am out of ideas
I've this problem since July 2011... I've tried EVERYTHING..
this is the logcat from the latest RUU:
Code:
I/WifiHW ( 241): wifi_load_driver end error 2
E/WifiStateMachine( 241): Failed to load driver!
No way to fix it in any "common" way.. i've tried all the roms around, with every recovery, with every possible option. but still after 9 months i cannot switch it on.
Firmware?

Hello,
I have rooted htc sensation, everything was working fine till I tried to instal cm9. Instalation was ok, but phone stuck in the boot loop (animated cm guy). After that i tried to get rid of it and on some stage i flashed stock kernel. In result im stuck on htc logo. I've read a lots of stuff but i couldnt find the ansver. I still can go into boot loader and recovery. I tried full vipe didnt help. was that problem caused by installing cm on s-on? Please if anyone know how to fixe it help me - Thank you
if you are using 4ext recovery enable smartflash and install the rom again
otherwise flash the boot.img manually
i think it will help you
but i don't know if you can install cm with S-ON.
do what i said and see

the only thing that i can tell you try to install another rom(check ARHD)reboot after install and see if it shows you the same
maybe requires S-OFF for cm but you told it booted fine the first time
i don't know why that happened

No - first time with cm it stuck in boot loop - not htc splash screen but the cm animation. So could you just tell me is there a way to turn it s-off?

i am but i can seem to connect my phone which was rooted before i got it cant connect to the adb or fasboot files so i can do the command and i tried installing the adb fasboot files but cant seem to get my sensation to connect with my computer but on the screen of the sensation it says its connected fastboot usb and the computer installs the drivers by itself by doesnt let me do the command to the phone so im wondering is there a way i can redo the fastboot to my sensation which when i got it was rooted so im guessing they used there computer to do the commands on there computer. just need to find another way can you think of one because i tried following the step on this guide on installing the adb fasboot drivers but cant seem to get the path right or something is just wrong hopefully you can understand what im saying because this happened to me about 2 days ago and i was running bruce2728's cm10 rom perfectly then and also one thing when i go into the hboot it says no bootimg but it said that even before i flash bruce2728 rom and im guessing the problem could be the bootimg but i got to get the fastboot running with my computer please help if you can i would greatly appreciate it.

is it possible to fix this kina of Brick?
i dont need links or something like that just a possible route how to fix it..
Thank you..
You have to flash boot.img from rom zip file from fastboot "fastboot flash boot boot.img" without quotes or enable smartflash in 4ext recovery... Do you have matching fw?

you may have to flash the boot.img manually
that's why it's not booting
in order to get S-OFF i need to install the Boot.img?
i cant just install Stock FIrmware (if possible)
and unlock Bootloader"?
S-OFF is a different story
i suppose you have already unlock bootloader
what fw do you have?
can i take Customize Rom Install it via CWM then install extract boot.img from Zip install it via Fastboot?

yes you can do it via cwm but i suggest you to install 4ext recovery.it is better
As you have cwm your bootloader has been unlocked.... Fastboot or 4ext recovery with smartflash enabled

Did you take a nandroid backup before flashing custom ROM? if yes then restore it, if no then that was silly
If no then there are 2 things you can do:
1. Flash a GB ROM then S-OFF using revolutionary.io method
2. Flash a 3.32 or 3.33 RUU then flash custom ROM
Out of the two I would go with no. 1 because it will save you a great deal of headache later on because revolutionary S-OFF is easier and more user friendly than JuopunutBear

Hello,
I have a HTC sensation, that i started rooting and install a custom rom - Kitkat from sultanxda.
All worked perfectly, only that one day i wanted to make a sim unlock, because it was locked in Vodafone Romania.
By mistake, i am not an expert, i've used the comand: fastboot oem writesecureflag 3
After this i've got my phone bricked...
I've found Unbriking projet on xda, and with a Linux I have managed on unbriking.
The problem is that now i have S-ON, and i cannot install another ROM, it works only with the ROM that wass installed before bricking.
I cannot get S-off, i have tried Juopunutbear method, but its not working, says to connect the device, and install drivers...
I have tried a lot of method's, i've tried installing a stock RUU, without luck...
I guess that i have to modify my firmware or hboot version, but as I was saying, i am no expert.
I can provide more information, if anyone can help me.
thanks

you have bootloop because your rom is gingerbread and now you have ics firmware
just flash an ics or jb rom from recovery
make a nandroid first just in case
by the way what firmware did you use because i see you have the official hboot version
did you use the one from the link that Mile_zdr provided you?

since you are on S-OFF you don't need to unlock the bootloader
but if you flash the 3.33 universal firmware that Mile_zdr told you you will have also a patched hboot which is unlocked
follow the instructions to the letter
and before flashing check md5 sums(important)
what recovery do you have?

How would someone update the recovery version and is there an easy way to post the specs of my phone? Also I do not have access to the internet because of my wifi not working.
