Hi all,
So I recently got a Sensation 4G that is rooted with CM 10.1 on it, but it seems to be lacking a recovery image. Whenever I try to boot into recovery using Goo or QuickBoot, it just reboots the phone. I have tried installing recoveries through Goo and 4ext recovery console but that hasn't helped.
When I boot into the bootloader it says:
Firmware 3.33
Pyramid PVT SHIP S-OFF RL
HBOOT - 1.27.1100
RADIO - 11.29A.3504.18_M
There is no reboot to recovery option in the bootloader. Can anyone fill me in about what I am missing here?
Thanks!

Hi,
greetings,
in the bootloader below the things you said their must options like
fastboot
recovery ......etc etc
select recovery their by pressing volume down button and power button to enter the recovery if this does not work
flash recovery vai abd and chech again,
if you cannot see still i suggest you should flash juopunutbear hboot that might solve your prob and then flash recovery again
If you manually boot into bootloader (phone off holding power and vol down) it will be the second option under fastboot.
For me whenever I use something to boot into bootloader it boots into fastboot mode which doesn't have an option for recovery.

hi all xda community !
So here is the situation :
HBOOT Screen :
***UNLOCKED***
pyramid pvt ship s-off rl
HBOOT-1.27.0000
Radio-11.21.3504.13_2
OpenADSP-v02.6.0.226.00.0104
eMMC-boot
Symptom:
I'm Stuck in a bootloop after i flash the 3.24 firmware and the Elegancia ROM.
First Time the roms boot normaly, then i reboot with the USB Cable attach.
And here come the BootLoop
Try to go to recovery, but bootLoop too.........
So I can go in Hboot, i can do FASTBOOT command and that all.
I try to flash CWM from fastboot -- > Ok for flash but wont go in recovery..
Try to flash 1.17 firmware then flash ROM.zip from 1.35Ruu Europe release --> Bootloop
Try to Flash 3.24 Ruu Same BOOTLOOP..
So what can I do community ?
What Solution i have ?
Why i cant flash a recovery since i Have S-OFF ??
MAYBE :
- Maybe i flash a Ruu who was Corrupt
- Maybe the radio don't match the Ruu i Tried to flash
- Maybe i'm just a simple mind guy
It seems that the 3.24 Firmware from SebastianFM with hBoot unlock have some problem, cause it seems that i'm not the only one who got several problem after flash this Firmware.

I got you. Actually you do not have any custom recovery installed. Actually if you flash any RUU it will wipe your recovery partition and install stock recovery. So first you flash a custom recovery. I know you tried to flash CWM.But you got bootloop. Did you delete the file PG58IMG.zip from sdcard after flashing CWM ???? Please redo the following steps.
STEPS TO FOLLOW:
1. Download recovery v5.0.0.8 for the Sensation here .
2. Copy the PG58IMG file into the Root folder of your SD card (The main Folder of your Memory Card)
3. Turn off your phone.
4. Remove the battery.
5. Wait a minute.
6. Put the battery again.
7. Press Power + Volume Down key together.
8. The phone will boot into bootloader.
9. Press Volume up to Accept when it asks" Do you want to start the update"
10. Press Power Off to Reboot back to android after installation is successful (normal screen with homescreen)
11. It may not boot . Do not worry because you may have wiped out evrything.
12. Power off your phone.
13. Delete PG58IMG from your memory card .
14. Download your favorite custom ICS ROM.
15. Put it on the root of your SDCARD.
16. Remove the battery.
17. Wait a minute.
18. Put the battery again.
19. Press Power + Volume Down key together.
20. The phone will boot into bootloader.
21. Select "Recovery" by pressing Volume Down Key.
22. Press Power button after selecting Recovery.
23. Your phone will reboot into clockworkmod recovery.
24. Wipe system, boot, cache, data , and dalvik cache
24. Install your ROM from SDCARD.
25. Wait at least 7 to 10 minutes for first boot
26. Your phone will be normal now.
NOTE:
******* You must be SuperCID to do the above. Please also note , from your preveous post, I understand that you have V3.24 Firmware. Remember only ICS rom will work with this firmware. So do not flash Gingerbread ROM.**********
hi help is appreciate,
`So i tried to follow your step 3 times . One with 1.17 Firmware 3.12 & 3.24.
every time after flashing the recovery, i reboot and when i go to recovery the phone go into boot loop.

Which ROM you want to flash ??
Why did you try all three firmware ???? You should choose your firmware according to your ROM you want to flash.
You may get boot loop after flashing recovery as there might be no rom installed.
So as I said after flashing recovery you should power off your device. Then boot into bootloader by the preveous method. ( Step 3 to 7 ).Selct recovery by volume down key. Then press power button. You will be in recovery. And flash your ROM. But your ROM should match with the firmware.
Ok but How could i flash a ROm if i can't go to recovery ...
Ok maybe you miss understand, i got boot loop when i want to go to recovery too
Please tell me what ROM you want to flash. Post the link here. And once again you give the details of your boot loader screen. Do you have fastboot/adb set up on your PC?

So, Let fix the recovery first.
Download this attatched recovery (4Ext Touch).
MD5 Checksum : d31d7df8d275f7234416af6a2e8b1c73
Check the md5check sum after download. If it matches , go to the next step else redownload.
Put the downloaded recovery.img in the directory of your fastboot binary.
Connect your phone with pc via usb cable.
Reboot your phone into bootloader.
Open fastboot command from your pc.
Now type the following command in fastboot.
" fastboot flash recovery recovery.img "
After flashing type " fastboot reboot"
Now try to go to recovery. If it is successfull then I will tell you the ROM flashing part.

For now i got the last Hboot, i can flash recovery from fastboot , the command return OK but recovery wont boot.

if yo can go in fastboot your likley not bricked.
you can always flash the original or similar ruu (not a rom) you phone came with in fastboot.
so you will go to stock with your hboot and recovery and to see if it boots.
then do the whole process over. s-off, then root.
then check your mid and cid if its supported.
and only then update to ics.
btw whats the type of phone? branded or og htc
my phone is from vodaphone so branded.
What do you mean by flashing your original or similar Ruu ?
The one coming with the phone out of box ?
i flash via command, .exe or PM58IMG.zip ?
i don't write my original cid is it bad ?

yes the rom the phone came with or close to it (any with recent ota`s).
always flash the ruu.exe because it wil recover the hboot, radio and recovery to stock. (zipfiles can be easily corrupted)
so go in fastboot usb (via power and volume button) and run the ruu.exe
then s-off/root the device
when s-off you should be able to install recovery within the original rom like cwr or ext4 updater tool, backup, then check your mid and cid, get a correct zipfile for the ics firmware update, flash arhd (it includes the lastest ext4 recovery). then change roms if you like.
you then also can check if the phone is working correctly.
if you already changed to supercid, i think its oke.
if not, on the forum there is al list of cid`s from different countrys and brands.
also there is al list of originals ruu the devices came with.
i assume you have done custom roms before ics came out?
so the cupercid was applied correctly?
i never supercid my devices (on a personal note)
and always flashed the testroms (to get the latest firmware) with no probs.
but if your branded its mandatory.
i've already flash 3 Ruu from this thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1074559
and all finish in a bootloop with no stock recovery... almost all Ruu run fine with no alert
ruu i flashed already :

I have unlocked the bootloader using HTCDEV, I have installed Revolutionary CWM v4.0.1.4 and ROM Manager from the market. I have downloaded the V3.5 base rom to my SD Card.
What I intend to do next is:
1) Activate USB Debugging
2) from ROM Manager to flash the Endymion rom
3) Reboot to BOOTLOADER and use the command fastboot flash boot $pathToBootIMG\boot.img to make it start correctly
Questions:
1) Is this all I need to do?
2) Do I have to downgrade the bootloader?
Thanks so much for your replies

Here is the att 3.18 RUU. All you need to do is connect your phone in fastboot mode and run the RUU, it's an exe file. Make sure HTC Sync is uninstalled (leave the drivers installed), make sure no other programs are running, and make sure screen saver/hibernation are turned off.

In the link you provided, on the first page, there were two seperate downloads, depending on when the phone was developed. "Download (restores to official Froyo 2.2.2) (315MB)" and also "Download (restores to official Gingerbread 2.3.3) (309MB)". Was just wondering which one you tried if any at all.
The only thing I can boot into is the 4ext Recovery Touch & hboot Can someone send me stock inspire 4g rom 4ext backup files they are *.tar files [email protected] Or [email protected]
Would that restore my system ?

4.Reboot to HBOOT: Shutdown completely (disconnect USB if connected and pull battery if necessary) then while holding down the VOL-DOWN key, press the POWER key for about half a second. The phone should boot into HBOOT, check the PD98IMG.zip for consistency, then prompt you to install. Select VOL-UP to install.
5.Once installed, HBOOT will prompt you to reboot by pressing the POWER button. Do this
I can get to step 4 and instead of flashing the PD98IMG.zip is says parsing and just goes back to hboot. I can't flash anything.
I have been making some MAJOR progress on my phone.. after messing around with a lot of fastboot commands, I found this with helped .. fastboot -c "lge.kcal=0|0|0|x" boot customrecovery.img if forces some images to boot.
Also the link I posted above only will work if my phone is relocked. I can't even make post in the Inspire 4G Android Development , because i'm "too new " to ask a question. But I managed to get his program to run again and I've noticed something. on step 7
7.Once successfully completed, the phone will automatically reboot to HBOOT and begin the process of installing the RUU. The only thing you have to do at this point is acknowledge the prompt to install by pressing VOL-UP. (Note: the RUU install may skip a couple of images during the install but this is normal.
IT FAILS to copy the RUU to the sdcard. and that's what has left my phone without an OS. I've also got the stock RUU htc_inspire4g_att_RUU_3.20.502.52_US.exe to run and complete But my phone hangs after the HTC logo..
So i'm headed in the right direction. Any ideas ???? ~ T
SO I've made a HUGE step in progress yesterday, I installed JellyTime rom and inspire mod and gapps. and forced the boot.img file to boot using fastboot -c "lge.kcal=0|0|0|x" boot boot.img it made the boot.img to run and start JellyTime. I've got android installed on the phone now. The only problem is I need to S-OFF so I can fastboot flash boot boot.img. It won't do it right now, As of now the phone will bootup and hang on the White HTC logo screen, Every attempt to S-OFF the phone has failed so far. Any Ideas ?
Your phone is bricked?
Try flashing this ROM

You don't need S-Off to fastboot flash boot.img. Just an unlocked bootloader.

This is not at all helpful. He is asking for boot.img or S-Off help. If he can't do that his ROM is irrelevant.
OMG. this is the worst place for help ever. I have Jelly time installed and I can get into it But only AFTER forcing the boot.img to boot. I CANNOT boot into jellytime by it's self normally. BECAUSE I cannot flash the boot.img file I get an error message. Because I need S-OFF to be off. right now it's on. Everything I've tried has failed.

This is just about the worst way to start a post where you're asking for help.

Also, you haven't told us what error message you get when you try to flash the boot.img. And is your bootloader unlocked??

What does forcing the boot.img means? there is no other way to flash a boot.img that in fastboot if you are S-ON. There is no need to be S-OFF to fastboot flash. In fact, having S-OFF is not enough to enable flash commands in fastboot (you actually need ENG S-OFF for that).
I suggest that you give detail information about the errors and what you are doing if you want to get helped.
Hello,
I have htc inspire. My phone was new sept 2011 and worked until july 2012. My phone was set to charge only and usb debug disable and was never rooted. One night I put the phone to charge and the next day it I turned it on but it never made past the white screen. I have tried to put the rom on sd card as PD98IMG. I tried RUU. The phone lists:
ACE PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-0.85.0024 MICROP-0438
RADIO-26.10.04.03_M
eMMC-boot

When I try using RUU it gets stuck on reloading bootloader
When I try the PD98IMG method using a goldcard, it gets stuck:
parsing...[SD ZIP]
[1] BOOTLOADER -UPDATING
[2] BOOT
[3] RECOVERY
etc
Please help
Not sure but What helped me get past the HTC logo screen is just recovering the old Stock of the phone.
The link provided is to return back to old stock AT&T Roms.

Boot your phone in Bootloader mode (PWR + VOL DOWN).
Run the RUU Installer.
For S-Off, Advanced Hack Kit (AAHK) was quite a big help to me.
My problem is I have s-on. Phone freezes when I try pd98img on sd goldcard. I can connect with fastboot but I am not sure how to use it. The phone was in charge only & usb debug off when it use to work.

Hey, noob with many regrets here.
My device is a HTC One Mini (M7), yesterday I tried to change the ROM. I installed the Sense 6 Framework and now my phone is bricked. I have TWRP working but when I attempt to push the old working ROM it loads for a while, then gives me 'protocol error' in cmd. I viewed the files through the TWRP file manager and saw that the /sdcard is completely empty. When I boot the phone up and try to use it normally it gets stuck on the HTC screen, at the bottom 'powered by ANDROID' with the development purposes notes in red writing over it.
edit: Managed to re-unlock the bootloader and install TWRP, can now access recovery.
edit 2: Had LOTS of problems with ADB, after lots and lots of re-tries I was able to finally push a ROM.zip over to the phone and install.

Hey AjanD i hope i can help u with your problem.
The first thing after unlocking your bootloader (which makes your phone S-On) is to flash a recovery.
I would suggest TWRP recovery . The think u do is go to fastboot with volume down key+power button
After u download the TWRP recovery for your Htc One you enter the following command to flash recovery
" fastboot flash recovery recovery.img (where recovery.img the name of the twrp recovery.img) .Then you should be able
to access recovery menu. Hope I helped you
