So today i rooted my sensation and everything was running perfectly until i downloaded a rom on rom manager. When the rom finished (miui) i clicked on it and a pre-installation window came up. It gave me 3 options, back up existing rom, wipe data and cache and wipe dalvik and all i checked was wiped dalvik. Now when the when it boots up it just shows me a white screen with the htc logo on it then turns black and repeats again. Please i need help urgently!!!!!
Pull the battery, put it back, and boot into hboot (Vol. Down + power button) tell me what it says

You needed to supercid first. Now run ics ruu which will wipe all ur partitions any will install stock Rom and recovery. Then supecid first. When you install any different Rom always superwipe.

how would i be able to supercid if i cant even get to my home screen?
1. Remove your sdcard (because you have a PG58IMG on it and I don't know which one).
2. Boot into bootloader and connect with adb and enter the following:
Code:
adb devices
[COLOR="Red"]make sure your device is detected[/COLOR]
fastboot oem writecid 11111111
[COLOR="red"]wait for it to write[/COLOR]
fastboot reboot-bootloader
[COLOR="red"]wait to reboot into bootloader[/COLOR]
fastboot getvar cid
[COLOR="red"]confirm it reads "11111111"[/COLOR]
(now power off your device)
3. Now using a card reader on your computer, delete your current PG58IMG (because I don't know what you have on there).
Download the 3.32 firmware from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1412618
Download the superwipe***.zip from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1098849
Place them on the root of your sdcard and put the card back into your phone.
4. Now boot into bootloader (power/volume down) and wait for it to detect the firmware. (volume up to accept) wait for it to flash and then press power to reboot when it prompts.
5. Power off, remove sdcard and delete your PG58IMG on computer, re-insert and boot into bootloader and select recovery.
Select and flash the superwipe***.zip
Select and flash your MIUI ROM
***NOW REBOOT INTO YOUR NEW MIUI***

Ok thanks for all your help i have done the supercid and now it has no more boot loop but there is another problem. I have s-off and revolutionary but when i do a root check on Root check basic i says sorry this device does not have proper root access. I was wondering why i do not have root access. thanks
If you are installing a custom ROM, such as ARHD, you are automatically rooted.
Why not do this?
Rom go on past step 5 on my post and flash a new Rom after update your not rooted just s-on

It happend to me aswell when I wanted to flash an ICS rom over a GB rom. I learned that i had to flash the ICS 3.32 firmware before the rom. I did just that and now it working better then ever. Go to www.senseomaniac.mobi. The firmeware and ICS roms are there. So easy to install. There is sense 4 roms aswell.

My sensation is also S-ON. I think ultimate solution is to flash boot.img of the rom you are installing using fastboot but you should flash 4EXT recovery. and select ENABLE SMART-FLASH before you start installing any rom. This will automatically write boot.img file from ROM and you need not flash boot.img file while installing rom.
Thanks all...I´ve trying with all your solutions and nothing happens..I´ll write you again to explain (maybe with screen captures) what´s going on...

Your problem is clearly visible and the solution is pretty straight forward too
(which I've linked before)
Now I'll briefly explain the steps..
First flash the rom you want from Recovery (also keep a copy of rom zip file in pc)
Then go to bootloader and connect your device to pc
Open the rom zip file from pc.. Extract and Copy the boot.img (generally in kernel folder of the zip) to your adb/fastboot folder
Then open command prompt from the adb/fastboot folder ( if windows hold shift + right click - open command window here)
Then type this
fastboot flash boot boot.img
Then reboot using
fastboot reboot
If it still not resolved let me know

Copy the rom zip file to your sdcard (do it via card reader) then insert sdcard card and boot to recovery.. There
Select install from sdcard.. And select the rom zip file.. That will install the rom
Edit: or follow the guide I've linked in my first post of this thread completely to the letter..
Then do the rest as explained earlier

Hello there,
I've had the same problem with my Sensation after Flashing the Elegancia ICS Sense4 ROM.
How i fixed it:
Go to Bootloader -->Recovery (I use ""recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.0.9-pyramid.img""
Then Wipe cache and system.
Flash your ROM, but dont change any settings there (if there is a option to wipe data, press "NO")
Thats how it worked with my device.
Otherwise install the firmware you need for your ROM.
Sry for my bad english, im from Germany !
Greetings
Flash your ROM, but dont change any settings there (if there is a option to wipe data, press "NO")

Follow through the steps and when it asks you to install a custom kernel it would be preferable to select YES, when Installing stock Kernel it is possible you will have Wifi problems. (see Step 3)
I PUT SEBASTIAN KERNEL
Reboot!
If during boot you are stuck on the white HTC screen, perform step Extra 1 and your problem should be resolved.
I GET STUCKED SO I DID
I DID EXTRA 1 EVERYTHING OK
=====================================
_Now it chage!....It starts with the white Screen with the logo...few seconds...then restart...again the white screen with logo and starts 4EXT...
So something´s better is´nt it?
But what´s the nextr step?
We´re really close!I can feel the force THNAKS!
EDIT: MAybe I have to choose another boot.img from some other kernel even when it was the one I choose in the ROM installation?
Hello to all,
For some reason my HTC Sensation won't boot - it keeps on rebooting on the white htc screen.
It started doing this 1-2 weeks ago. Yesterday I managed to get inside the ClockworkMod Recovery somehow from HBOOT, and restored an old backup. Then I installed a newer radio and [ROM] Android Revolution HD 6.7.2 (the page recommended updating the radio). I also flashed the 4EXT Touch recovery, as it was required by this ROM, so I changed from Clockwork to 4EXT. The device worked for 1-2 hours, and then after one restart, it wouldn't boot again. This time I can't access anything but HBOOT and FASTBOOT.
Of course ADB doesn't work as I can't boot the device.
So the question is - what shall I update via fastboot "fastboot update update.zip" so that I restore my device? Or what file shall I put on the SD Card so that HBOOT can recover it (I have access to other devices, so I can place something on the SD card)?
I've been trying to flash various ROM's and RUU's but all of them give an error.
The configuration inside HBOOT says the following:
-Revolutionary-
PYRAMID PVT SHIP S-OFF RL
HBOOT-1.27.1100
RADIO-11.24A.3504.31_M
OpenADSP-v02.6.0.2226.00.0104
eMMC-boot
Jan 12 2012,17:33:34
I also tried flashing a few recoveries via fastboot (clockworkmod recovery.img and 4ext recovery.img), but could get inside them :/
Let me know what else could I do.
Thanks for the support!
I just managed to get to the ClockworkMod recovery and installed a new ROM - OpenSensation. It worked during the first boot, but then when I rebooted the phone - the same thing happens - it keeps on rebooting on the htc white screen.
Of course I can no longer go to the ClockworkMod recovery.
I also notice that when going back and fourth between HBOOT and FASTBOOT menus, at the top the version for RADIO appears and disappears.
I am not sure if all this is a hardware or software problem, but it is strange that from time to time I manage to get to a recovery and install a ROM which works for a while and then sends me back to this rebooting loop.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
Might be a hardware failure but.. First try ruu and restore to complete stock. Most of the times this fixes the issue..
For finding and flashing a ruu.. Look for ruu info guide by kgs1992 in sensation general section
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using xda premium
Thanks for the help. I managed to install successfully the following RUU:
RUU_Pyramid_HTC_Europe_1.50.401.1_Radio_10.56.9035.00U_10.14.9035.01_M_release_223042_signed
but it didn't work... it installed successfully, but the phone keeps on restarting on the white htc screen.
I figured that might be because of the firmware installed (I was on Android 4.0.x), so maybe this RUU is older.
I am downloading right now:
RUU_PYRAMID_ICS_HTC_Europe_3.32.401.5_R_Radio_11.69.3504.00U_11.22.3504.07_M_release_252064_signed.exe , which definitely must be Android 4.0.x so I hope it works.
Thanks for the help and thanks to kgs1992
Ruu is complete rom.. It has everything In it.. When you run ruu you shouldn't consider the firmware, recovery etc etc.. It has everything built in
So when you flashed the gb ruu.. It flash stock recovery, stock gb firmware and stock rom
So when you flashed gb ruu it has turned to complete gb rom.. Anyways less hope that the ICS ruu works fine
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using xda premium
Somehow I thought that the firmware is separate, although I wasn't sure.
Anyway - the fact is that after a successful RUU update, the phone keeps on rebooting and couldn't boot even once. I hope the next RUU fixes it.
thanks,
Anton
Still doesn't work after trying a second RUU: RUU_PYRAMID_ICS_HTC_Europe_3.33.401.6_Radio_11.76A.3504.00U_11.24A.3504.31_M_release_266171_signed.exe

try a AOSP ROM/CM9/CM10 lot of people had these kind of issues and they can boot only to a non sense roms ..may be you could boot fine on non-sense roms too
How would I flash CM9 CM10 or any AOSP, when I have access only to "fastboot". So far I could only flash those RUU-s from a Windows machine, as I can't get to any recovery.
Would it work if I try "fastboot update cm9.zip" or something similar?
Thanks,
Anton

Fastboot update command won't work
As you are soff.. You can flash jbhboot or 3.33 universal firmware with every thing removed except hboot_xxxx.nb0 file.. And unlock the hboot first
Then flash a recovery (you can avoid hboot flash and try a PG58IMG.zip file of recovery) from fastboot
Then from.. Recovery flash the cm9 or any AOSP rom
If you can't boot to recovery even after flashing the recovery fine.. Then try this command
fastboot boot recovery.img
(it boots into recovery temporarily.
From there you will flash a rom)

You can try using Fastboot Commnder
Instructions:
-download tool
-unpack zip and click on .exe application (is a stand alone app, so you have to click and confirm installation, that's all!)
-open tool
-put DHD in "Fastboot Mode"
-plug it to your pc usb
-Wait for "print of device succesfull"--(if fails, check your sdk driver)
-here you go to "misc"
-select: erase partitions (system,cache,userdata,boot) Don't select recovery
-click on "Erase chosen partition"
-Done
You can use this tool to flash a new ROM or even to flash a recovery.img
Your problems might also come from not flashing the correct recovery.
Make sure you have the latest version. Good luck
Hey guys,
I can really use your help - I thought this would be relatively easy but boy was I wrong.
I started with an HTC Sensation (locked / unrooted / S-ON / ICS) with HBOOT 1.27
What did I do to end up where I am now?
1. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1497404 - I followed all the steps top left to unlock the bootloader, which succeeded. Only to find out I needed to S-OFF the device differently.
2. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1614617 - I followed this guide, but did nothing with step 2 (I didn't have a superuser application and couldn't get root because I didn't have any custom abilities since the device was S-ON still). Device was succesfully S-OFF.
3. Here I installed JuopunutBear HBOOT-1.27.1111
4. Then I flashed CWM Recovery 6.0.0.3 for the pyramid by following these instructions: http://www.androidauthority.com/sensation-clockworkmod-recovery-6-0-0-3-custom-recovery-105930/ and removed the PG58IMG.zip file again.
5. Now I booted the CWM Recovery with a fully empty Micro-SD card (already formatted from previous use in same device). I do a factory reset and wipe all cache (including dalvik/battery stats). I then install January 9 '13 release (Bruce AOKP) and then GAPPS latest version for 4.1.2 - succesful.
6 Here I think I am done, reboot ... HTC white screen ... reboot ... HTC white screen ... CWM Recovery. What the ... happens everytime. After some searching people said because my phone was unlocked (HTCDev method) before installing custom ROM I should install boot.img manually. Did that (yes I used the boot.img from Bruce his zip) using fastboot flash boot boot.img - succes (so it said).
7. Step 6 changed nothing ... and here I am stuck .... please help me to get into my favourite mod!

Please help me continue and make it run. I have a feeling maybe something in the root steps or whatever - but this process is not as easy as many users here make it seem. Sifting through the info ... I was surprised I got this far :silly: ...

Root is a userspace level thing that shouldn't affect the installations of ROMs, plus all ROMs (except for stock ROMs) come pre-rooted. SensationProblem, I suggest you install the TWRP recovery from here: http://techerrata.com/file/twrp2/pyramid/openrecovery-twrp-2.4.1.0-pyramid.img
Flash this using fastboot. This is the command to flash it:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.4.1.0-pyramid.img
After it completes successfully, reboot the bootloader then after it reboots back into the bootloader select the bootloader option then just enter the recovery from there. In the recovery, go to Wipe and wipe the Cache, Dalvik Cache, Factory Reset, and System, then flash Bruce's CM10.

Dude that worked, thank you so much (want to give kudo's - can't find button). Can you maybe shortly explain to me why it worked? Because as I can understand it now it was because of something in the CWM Recovery that was messing things up?

The current version of CWM for the Sensation is extremely old and, as a result, does not support the installation of Jelly Bean ROMs.
Hi,
So, I just wanted to root my HTC One SV and now i only have HTC screen.
I followed the tutorial to unlock the bootloader (on HTCDev) It's OK !
I wanted to install CWM, it crashed, so I took TWRP 2.7.0.0 and it works
I installed superuser
I re-boot ....... and then boot loop !!:crying:
I made several manipulation, factory reset, etc ....
and i try to flash boot.img (fastboot)
I have not tried to install a new ROM, I just wanted root access
there is a progress, now I'm stuck on the HTC sight, no other message.
if someone has an idea I'm interested in :fingers-crossed:
I am able to go into recovery. But i don't know how to install Dumlock on SD card, for example.

Sorry, I need some english lesson too.
Your english is fine
I think you only need to flash a stock 4.2.2 rom from TWRP, SuperSu.zip for root and the boot.img of this rom with fastboot.
Use the link in my signature and you will find all what you need, linked in my Index Thread.
"Merci" for my english...and the solution
I'll try this evening - I don't need to change the CID number ? I think my phone is branded with my operator
You can't chage it, as long as you don't have a running OS.
Only then you can get S-Off, which is needed to change CID.
So...
I had some problem
I can't wipe with TWRP 2.7.0.0, it shut down when i do
so i take TWRP 2.6.3.2 - it works
When i want to flash the ROM k2ul_4.2.2_3.11.401.1_stock_odexed_v3
E:Unable to mount 'int_sd'
Checking for MD5 file
File MD5 not found
FAILED
I try again, it works, i don't know how
i use fastboot to flash the boot, OK
I reeboot the phone, everythings great
I shut down the phone, reeboot in recovery and flash the SuperSU, UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.99
I reeboot the phone, and surprise......... boot loop
I flash the ROM again and that's all for this evening. The phone works now.:good:
Thanks a lot.
Edit: I need to be S-off for install SuperSU ?????????
