Hi All,
I have been reading various guides on how to flash my HTC Sensation it is currently running the stock ICS 4.0.3 and using HBOOT 1.27. I would like to update it to Jellybean and I have been looking at the CyanogenMod for this or if someone else has any other suggestions. With the current software my phone is running really slow and lags.
I am really confused on what the best procedure is and how to do it, I have found this utility but if someone could give me some hints to where I start.
I think I may have got the drift of some things:
1. Go to HTCDEV and unlock the bootloader
2. Take S-OFF using JuopunutBear
3. Install 4EXT
4. Become SuperCID
5. Flash new Jellybean ROM
Options 1 and 2 seem OK but I am not sure how to proceed with the other steps and if it is the way I should be doing it and it is is all possible with my phone.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

there is no need to do both steps 1 and 2
go can use either this guide

or this guide
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1661631
only with the second guide you can supercid
After looking at SuperCID is it really necessary? Or do you need to do this for custom ROMS. I know its for carrier specific ROMS but my phone is not branded.

it is only useful for flashing any ruu.exe

+1. Not to mention, if u are upgrading from ics to jb, there's no need for ruu. Your current firmware (3.32/3.33) will support jb. So you could flash jb even s-on.

I have Software Version 3.33.401.53 so I can just:
1. Unlock the boot loader
2. Flash a recovery using the all in one tool
3. Flash cyanmod 10
Is this correct?

Thanks for all your help, I managed to flah Cyanogen 9 the stable version which is Android Version 4.0.4, when version 10 is stable or stops going nightly I will flash to that to get JellyBean unless there is a stable ROM anyone knows about.
Also I see that this ROM has ROM Manager installed and you can flash ClockwordMod Recovery is it worth doing that or shall I just stick to 4EXT?
And
If I was to flash another ROM I guess I just do it from 4EXT and will this wipe all my data and apps again?

You are correct. Flash Roms from 4ext. You can back up your apps and the data with titanium backup.
By the way, albino's cyanogenmod 10.1 is labeled as stable. It has really good performance and has pretty much no bugs.

SmartFlash is, in a way, the easiest way to flash roms s-on.
ALTERNATIVELY, to flash roms s-on (without smartflash), say with some other recovery,
Extract boot.img from whichever rom you want to flash. It typically resides in the kernel folder.
Enter fastboot mode and use:
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
.
Watch this.

As of the moment, revolutionary does not support the new hboot. The only way to s-off again is to downgrade.
Or you are able to unlock but will remain s-on by using htcdev site, which elk enable you to flash custom ROM and recovery but you must be aware that boot needs to flashed via fast boot

here you can see a procedure how to obtain superuser access to an S-ON mobile, and flash recovery and of course flash an unrooted custom ROM. I personally used the MIUI v1.11.11
I have a Desire S fully unlocked in the UK, looking to put android 2.3.7 on it. It has the latest version 2.3.5 on with hboot 2.00.002.
Has anyone achieved this yet?? If so how??
Thanks in advance!
Android 2.3.7 is available via CM7 or MIUI, not sense
Apologies but I don't really know what that means. I am wanting to remove all of the HTC software and run just android.
ok, I understand now, what I need to be able to do is S-OFF 2.00.0002?

You can gain full S-OFF on HBOOT 2.00.0002. You can unlock the bootloader at http://htcdev which will allow you to flash a custom recovery and install CM7.1 ROM which is based on GB 2.3.7.
Thanks very much

My s-on was taken down in a service by xtc clip. This is the simplest way...
Install through ROM Manager after all the steps?
better install 4ext recovery, how to is somewhere in this forum. Than you can convert your partitions to 4ext fs, what is suported by most of roms. 4ext works better for me. to manage your roms download 4ext updater from market.

Yes that is the procedure to follow. You can install CM 7.1 ROM after you have finished step 7, but I would go ahead and finish step 8 also. That will root your existing ROM so when you make a 'nandroid' backup before you flash CM 7.1, you will have a fully rooted backup of your system.
Hello,
I have finally decided to go down the path of custom roms. Have read around quite a bit and decided that the best idea would probably be to root using the downgrade method instead of using the HTC unlock method so that I would also get S-OFF (to be able to change kernel and radio).
Q1: Do you think this is a good choice?
Q2: If I indeed use the downgrade method, would it then in som way be possible to flash 4ext recovery and do a system backup of my current setup before downgrading?
Q3: Do I actually need to be able to change kernel/radio? Will many custom roms need a change of kernel?
Q4: Is it possible to return to stock recovery/rom from both of these methods in case need of warranty?
Many thanks!
/Neorth
1) Hell Yes. Best thing i did to my phone.
2) On your current setup, you'll need to flash the boot.img file from each ROM via fastboot after you flash it. If you use downgrade, This step is not needed. I reccomend you downgrade.
3) Every ROM has a built in kernel (boot.img) which will automatically change when you flash it. Do not mess with your radio, changing it does not make a lot of difference and it's risky. (if you don't downgrade, you can't change radio at all)
4) From downgrade, yes. From HTC Dev unlock, only partially. You can restore ROM an recovery, but your bootloader will only say Re_locked.
Thanks for your answers!

I think you missunderstood me on this one. My current setup is stock (S-ON, unrooted). What I want to do is to backup before I wipe the current rom, would that be possible?

I think I will downgrade but would this work even if I use the HTC unlock method? Think I read that you can't change kernel if you're only root with S-ON.

Oh yes i did To answer question 2, yes you can. Unlock your phone Via HTCDev.com, flash 4ext recovery.img from fastboot and nandroid backup.
Ok, so if I want a backup I'll still have to unlock via HTCDev.com. Guess I better start to write down my current settings..
Now I've downgraded! Have also run revolutionary but not quite there yet as I have some questions so I won't do anything stupid
Q5. I want 4ext recovery instead of the clockwork mod so I answered no when revolutionary asked me to install that one. After that I've become a little nervous because I don't know if it's safe ro reboot without flashing a custom recovery, is it?
Q6. Can I reboot and install 4ext recovery from the phone (from market or apk)?
Q7. Why does revolutionary has it's own hboot (6.98.1002) and am I supposed to stick with it?
Thanks again!

You should rerun rev and install cwm then u can replace it with 4ext by downloading the app from market and flashing it from within the app
You'll need to flash superuser using cwm first though.
Yes you should replace the rev hboot with a standard engineering hboot. There are advantages as in some instances the rev hboot cannot be overwritten.

Is it really possible to run revolutionary on hboot 6.98.1002?
I rebooted without problem. So I guess the problem is that I don't have su access? Any walk around for this?
Yes, but you need CWM first, that'll give you EVERYTHING you want. Follow this to get CWM and get root access - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=14693680 Then, download the 4Ext recovery control app (it needs root) and flash 4ext recovery.

Ah, perfect! I'm working my way through the different guides and are now in this stage:
SAGA PVT ENG S-OFF
HBOOT-0.98.2000 (PG8810000)
RADIO-3805.06.02.03_M
Have also got 4ext as recovery so all is great so far
Now I just have to decide on which custom ROM to start with. Think Quattro, Endymion and Reaper are the top candidates
Btw, do you think I should upgrade to the latest hboot-2.00.2002? And should I upgrade to the latest radio? And should I in that case do that before or after ROM?
No need for touching your radio or hboot. I've never flashes an hboot and the one time i flashed a radio, my phone almost got bricked.

Hi guys im new with this device(HTC Sensation Z710e) so i have some doubts. This is what i have done:
*Unlock Bootloader with Revolutionary. I got S-OFF
*CWM Recovery Installed.
*Rooted device.
Now, my phone is xtremely bad in benchs... about 800 in Quadrant and some more little issues.
So, what more do i need to do if i want to install a custom rom?
Pd: I have read some about the radio and CID but i dont know if i have to set supercid to install a custom or if it is only for Ruu´s
Pd2:How do i upgrade to ICS? My phone is still on GB.
Thankyou all.

Hi,
Updating to super CID will make flashing firmware much easier.
Radio gets updated with the firmware.
To get ICS you need to update your firmware.
Look HERE
Quadrants are not the best way of judging the speed of a ROM
Can i apply Super CID if my HBOOT is 1.17.1111?

I haven't done GB in a while.
You might want to SUPERWIPE before you flash the ROM.
This will clean your phone of any previous ROM.
Hope you've backed up your important stuff.
In theory, Hmmm... However, i will make a Nandroid Backup and if something goes wrong i will Restore and that´s all right?

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

cannot post links because im new here sorry, its the first link when you google "vipers 3.1.2 sensation techbeasts"
this is my current situation: when i try to start the phone the green htc sign appears for a few seconds, then the screen turns black and nothing happens. i can access bootloader, fastboot (it connects to my computer) and i can access the recovery menu. when i open bootloader

Mar 2 2012,18:14:34
this is how it happened: around 10 hours ago i had a completely stock htc sensation xe with Android 4.0.3. Because of perfomance issues
and my need to costumize stuff (years ago i had a jailbreaked ipod touch 2g and it was fun costumizing skins and adding tweaks ) i decided to
install a custom rom on my sensation xe, and i found the vipers 3.1.2 rom online. so i found a simple looking tutorial (link in introduction) to install it. i oversaw the little note that i need a ROOTED sensation and just started following the tutorial. after running into small problems i found out that i have to unlock the phone, which i did successfully with the htcdev website. after flashing the boot.img i was told to reboot the phone and it blackscreens after the htc logo ( it doesnt even show the quietly brilliant part ). its still not rooted by the way.
now i need help from someone, i am completely inexperienced with androids and would like to get my phone back to running, preferably with vipers 3.1.2 .my ideas are to either get it back to stock rom and try the tutorial again (this time with rooting it first ) or maybe to just root it now somehow and to carry on with the vipers rom installation. but i dont want to just go ahead and try it out and maybe hardbrick it. can somebody please help me out and tell me what to do?
You need to install custom recovery and flash a rom of your choice through recovery. The part with flashing boot.img comes after flashing the rom if your phone is not s-off.
Try finding some tutorials for all of the things I told you.

your bootloader is already unlocked..then like what nlooooo said in the previous post.. you just need to installing custom recovery choices what ever you want from 4EXT, TWRP or CWM then after that you can installing any custom rom that you want..off course you need always to flashing that rom boot.img too after every installing new custom rom..
hope this can help..

not necessary if you enable smartflash from 4ext recovery exactly before flashing a custom rom(only for S-ON devices)
