Phone crashes when setting up after unlocking it - HTC Sensation

Hello guys,
I unlocked my phone using the following guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1233513
Unlocking was successful. I did a few calls to make sure everything was ok and proceeded to install a custom rom. I tried Jelly bam first. Everything installed right and booted the phone ok. At the setup page it asks me the language as usual, but when I click start the phone says to wait and then it crashes and reboots. I tried another JB rom and did the same thing. I does the same thing with simcard or without.
Any ideas? I am going to try an ICS rom.
This is my first HTC phone. I've always worked on Samsungs
Edit:
Ooops I think I forgot to upgrade firmware. Let's see if that fixes it.
Thanks in advance

BusyBox Update failed

I'm having an odd problem, and I'm not sure what to do about it.
This morning when I woke up, I noticed that there was a BusyBox update in my notification bar. Upon trying to update it failed.
So, I uninstall BusyBox, and try to reinstall it, but I'm met with a message that I don't have root access. Upon checking with Root Checker, I DO have root access. But, now all of a sudden, my wifi is not working, when it has worked flawlessly up to this point.
I'm not sure what to do. I don't have a nandroid backup to roll back to, and I need my wifi to work. Would doing a factory reset and flashing a new ROM solve this problem?

What ROM are you on...Gingerbread or ICS?
you must be on a custom rom or you on stock, rooted?
---------- Post added at 04:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:40 PM ----------
ok need to go into CWM and flash these files, should correct it, I had this issue on a ROM dont recall which one or it might of been on a rooted stock....
but before you do anything.....
download these files and put them on your sd card of the phone, NOT THE EXT memory card, you are gonna flash them like you would a ROM ok, in cwm, you can flash them back to back while you are in CWM...kk
download this file first and flash this file first: FLASH ME FIRST
download this file second and flash it second: FLASH ME SECOND

Didn't seem to work. Still can't install BusyBox. I'm not sure what kinda bearing that has on my wifi, my wifi just stopped working when the BusyBox update failed this morning.

check the MIUI thread...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1294549
I think MIUI occasionally loses recovery. Possible kernel issue.
Read through the thread to see if you can get some additional info.
I'm not sure if it has any bearing on your wifi..possible.
If you know how, you can try extracting the kernel from MIUI rom and reflashing just the kernel using SGS kernel flasher to retain your data.

I definitely don't know how to do that haha. I'm a noob when it comes to this whole game, although I'm slowly learning.
Do you think doing a factory reset, wiping everything, and then flashing a new ROM might fix my issue? I did want to try out one of the new ICS ROMs, so if that will fix my problem I might as well go ahead and try one of them out.
Flashing Uniporn seemed to have fixed my issue. I first re-flashed MIUI and that didn't solve anything, so I guess the issue was with MIUI? Just odd that the wifi would drop out after using it flawlessly for 4 months.
Oh well, got something new to play with again. Thanks for the help guys!

[Q] installed rom and now I have NO service.

Hey guys,
No matter what I do I can't get my service to work again. All it shows at the top is a little circle with a slash through the middle. I tried installing a custom rom but ran into some problems. So I "restored" my backup through rom manager. But i don't have service anymore. Since this happend I have tried several new roms and I still can't get the service to come back.
Some people say it has something to do with the IMEI but according to my setup I still have one.
I have been working on this problem for nearly 13 hrs none stop! Please help... I have searched everywhere.
Thanks

If your IMEI and all that information is correct then you may have a bad sim card resulting in no service at all. Otherwise i'd recommend using odin to go back to completely 100% stock and see if that fixes it.

Thank you so much for responding. I have tried to restore stock with odin but every time odin finishes my phone still boots up my existing rom. Any quick ideas with that one?
And do you really think my sim could have just gone bad like that? It's free to get a new one so maybe I will try that as a last resort.
I don't know much about rooting but could it be my radio?
A couple of questions?
Is boot loader unlocked, if so how did you unlock, updated ver 1.4 ez-unlock can mess up and relock boot loader. Use ver 1.2 . "Verizon only"
What ROM and kernel? Make sure its for your carrier.
Any radio should be OK as long as its for you phone and carrier.

did you try reprovisioning your device with dialer code *2767*3855?
note that this does wipe internal sd so back ur **** up!
I tired the above number in dialer but always comes up with error saying "mobile network not available".
Am I doing something wrong?
Oh.... You forgot to ad a # on the end of that number. After this everything started working again!!! Thank you so much!

What fixes the problem. This happened to me after flashing the latest MIUI ROM on my Verizon S3.
I tried re provisioning my phone with the number sequence below but it did not work. I also used the phone info app but I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do.

[Q] Atrix 2 Dialler Not Working

Hi,
I have been using Atrix 2 for almost 4 months now and i was very happy with it. I also a got an OTA to ICS. But recently my dialer/phone is not working properly. Whenever i press the dial button for any contact it takes almost 5 to 10 mins to dial that number and during that time even the back button wont work in the dialer/phone. But all other apps seem to work fine. I am unable to make calls properly as it takes too long nearly 10 mins to dial that number. I tried restarting the phone and also uninstalled few apps which i thought might be cause. But nothing seems to fix the problem.
When i do a factory reset then it works fine for almost a day and the same problem repeats again. Details are given below,
Phone: Atrix 2
OS: Andriod 4.0.4
Root: Not Rooted.
Please help me fix this problem.

You're on a completely stock system right? Definitely weird, since you have no root and stock recovery, and factory reset doesn't fix it. Then I would suggest fxz a clean system. You can check the noob guide for more info about how to do it, and which fxz you need.

Flash it in CWM. There are some minor bugs though. I would suggest u manually write down the apns before flashing and add it back once done.

No Data/Calls on Viper 1.5

I have the weirdest issue, I searched around and have found no topics on so here it goes. Every time I try to install Viper 1.5 on the Verizon m8, Everything tells me it worked, then as I'm setting up the phone I don't have any Carrier calling/data. After setup is complete I still don't have any Carrier calling/data. Occasionally a message box appears saying sim is prepared and then I click on my carrier (Verizon) and the screen goes blank and repeats. Everything else on the rom works great! But I can't get my carrier data/calls! I've redownloaded, wiped, and re installed over and over! Hope I can get some help!
Thanks for the hard work and support!
Try reflashing TRWP newest version. I had the same issue too and this fixed it for me.

OP see here for TWRP from the actual team and not a port

Yep, I fixed it, thanks guys. I was mistakenly using the wrong twrp version and it was flashing the viper gsm version of the rom!

Oneplus one acting weird

My opo fell in water so its screen was not working. My father gave it to a mobile repair shop who repaired it for 4k. When he checked the phone everything seemed alright.He was able to call me etc etc. Then he couriered me the phone. When I got It... It had cos13 latest version. I checked everything except calling. Then I rooted my phone. Flashed oreo. I inserted my sim. It was able to detect that it was an idea sim and import contacts from it but it showed no service. I thought it was the rom. I flashed Tugapower N49. Same problem. So I thought restoring it to stock might solve the problem. Used oneplus one recovery tool to restore it to 4.4 . Still the same problem. It can detect the sim but can not catch any signal. I check my Imei number. Its still there. But I was not able to run the ping test. Then I thought of using this phone for checking roms only and use my Lumia(I hate Lumia) for calling. Rooted it again. Flashed oreo. Flashed its gapps. It show installation complete but its stuck there...... Waited for half an hour. Forced restart. oreo opened but It was nt factory reset although I had wiped it and it shut down after some time. after that my phone reached the android screen only and cant proceed further. I thought maybe force closing my phone during gapps installation did this. Tried to install tuga power.. error executing update binary. Had one more nougat rom. Installed it. Again it didn't show that starting google screen which u see when ever u open a new phone. Basically It was again not factory reset, Wiped everything except system. still this happened. Returned back to stock using recovery tool. Now I tried to install multirom so that I can install the oreo rom. after rooting multirom wasn't able to download anything. Downloaded it manualy. Flashed multirom twrp using fastboot. opened recovery . Not working. phone rebooting. Flashed the previous recovery which I was using before multirom one, That one is working properly!!! What is wrong with my phone???!!!!!

It must be something with the hardware then.You've to disassemble your device and check if network antenna's broken.Follow the tutorial on YouTube.
