Trouble on installing ROM on my sensation XE - HTC Sensation

I am a rookie in Sensation XE, I just brought it yesterday. The phone is pre-installed CWM. When I flash ARHD into my phone, it can't boot into the system, it just stuck at the boot animation. What happen to it?? H-BOOT 1.29 , S-ON. Thx a lot
Also, when I install CM10.1 on it, the WiFi doesn't work. Am I missing something ??

[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

Can you get to the bootloader?
Sent From Space Using My ICS Flavored Sensation
Need tothrow the pg85.img zip on the root of you're sd card then boot into bootloader. Follow on screen instructions.
Sent From Space Using My ICS Flavored Sensation
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.
This file contains Clockwork recovery

Did you superCID? If not, what is your CID, because the file: P58IMG.zip is the firmware package for your device, and it's CID dependent. Get the one you need from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1459767

In that case you can find it from fastboot.

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!

Stucked at HTC logo...!!!

Hey Guys,
I'm Stuck on HTC Logo while installing Android Revolution HD 6.7.2. ... Previously i was running On ViperS Rom..(I have a Backup of Viper also,But want to taste ARHD so...)
Everything goes fine...I changed the firmware to 3.33.401.X , Then Flashed ARHD 6.7.2 after flashed completed i got stuck at HTC Logo..
Please Help me Out...Thanx in advance...:good:
Did you use the superwipe script available in the ARHD thread? You MUST superwipe coming from a different rom to ARHD.

Are you stuck in HTC logo or splash screen? If it's spalshscreen, wipe data and cache might solve the problem, but if you are stuck in HTC logo, maybe you need to reflash your recovery.
Use RHD superwipe first then reflash the Rom again it might help. I encounter the same thing when I tried flashing RHD Rom without doing superwipe but later I discover that I must do superwipe then I did it and it works fine.

So your phone works normal if you use other roms? Because I see you are replying on your phone. If so, then it's not recovery that cause the problem, and if you have tried wipe data and cache, maybe your firmware is not updated sucefully? Or the rom you downloaded is not corret? Just guessing.
DON'T wipe the data partition. If you do no wonder your ROM won't boot after flashing. Data partition is important, it holds key files. Wipe only the cache and dalvik cache. But they shouldn't need re wiping after a superwipe.
What ROM are you using currently? It may be a firmware incompatibility.
Yes i m replying from ma Phone, actually i m running on ViperS 1.1.0 ,everything works perfect then i backup the current Rom, then update the firmware to 3.33.41.X then i run superwiped script from ARHD, then Flashed ARHD 6.7.2 then i found i m stuck on HTC loho....

Phone wont boot after revert cm9 to arhd

today I reverted on cm9 to arhd, formatted system, formatted and partitioned sd card with fat32, also used superwipe, and install the rom. however phone wont pass the htc screen. I really dont understand what happened. can someone come up with something? Did I forget something? (already using 3,33 firmware)
Try to skip the superwipe part.. Then use In built wipe of recovery and repeat the steps again.. It might help

done with 4ext(format all partitions except sd not used superwipe), installed arhd but still the same.
btw, phone cant' pass the first htc screen, I remember when I was using arhd, after htc screen, the second one was coming and writes "quietly brilliant". When I'm in a recovery, it says "smartflash is currently set to update ur boot partition on next system start, but phone cant' pass first screen.
Phone is S-OFF

You should not enable smartflash when you are SOFF... That messes up phones who has soff
Now reflash 4EXT recovery.. Then go to tools and make sure smartflash is disabled(if not then disable it.. It will be there for that session only though)
Then do the flashing process again

Are you S-On? Which recovery are you using? Use 4Ext and enable smart flash feature if S-On and then flash ROM again. Or else flash Boot.img extracted from Rom zip via fastboot.

This error can happen, no big deal. When I had this rom a change in kernel fixed it. So just get any ics kernel from the help thread (eg bricked 1.4 or Sebastianfm) That will fix it.
Though you should try ViperS 3.1.2. That's awesome.
JAM THAT THANKS BUTTON.

If you're S-On I recommend using 4Ext as there is a smartflash feature which remove the Extra 1 step of flashing boot.img everytime you flash ROM. If you're S-off then you can stick with CWM.
