[Q] Help Please - HTC Sensation Bricked - HTC Sensation

Hello,
i flashed cm 10 on my Sensation and after a hour it was still loading so i removed the battery and restarted the phone.
Then it resumed loading for an minute or two and just went black (powerd off).
Now nothing works anymore, no fastboot or recovery, no led light on charger connected.
Computer detects device when i connect it but adb cannot do nothing, it connot find device.
How can i solve this now?

What does the computer detect? fastboot not working either? are you S-Off? try connecting it to charger with battery outside and see what happens.

No bootloader on VolDown+Power press, no indicator LED light when connected on charge with or without battery.
Phone was S-Off before this hepened. PC detects phone on USB connection and Device Manager says "qhsusb_dload" for device.
ADB/fastboot does not detect phone on connection.

What matters is your CID. unless you have SuperCID you need the exact RUU for your device. go to bootloader and via fastboot type fastboot getvar cid. This will give you your CID.
Here is a list of Sensation RUUs:
http://www.androidruu.com/index.php?developer=Pyramid
I suggest using an ICS RUU, as it will allow you to avoid messing with firmware (will flash it by itself).
Good luck.

Started to work with restats maybe you can get in your fast boot by now?

if you are still on S-OFF you can use any ruu.exe which means a GB one too
but you must have supercid
by the way can you boot now to the bootloader?

Yes, it is S-Off still but now after recovery, unrooted.
I can go into bootloader via VolDWN+PWR.

ok then check your cid
if you aren't supercid you can change it with this command
fastboot oem writecid 11111111
then you can use any ruu.exe including GB one
see here for ruu.exe

by the way can you post your bootloader details?
unfortunately i don't have a link for GB ROM flashing from recovery

it is better to use the GB ruu.exe just to be sure

My CID was HTC__036 so is that got something to do with bugs i had or is it just preventing you
to flash RUU packs? I do not really understand how it works tottaly. Is it better if i cange it to 1111111 and can it be restored back to stock after?
I got problems with WiFi, BT and FM, thay not working so one of the options are to fully restore the phone by removeing custom recovery, S-OFF, and everything and get it back on factory GB OS so it can be sent on repair.

if you change your cid to supercid(11111111) then you can use any ruu.exe you want
with cid:HTC__036 you can use a specific ruu.exe
and no cid has not to do with bugs
after supercid you can revert it back to the original one if you want
after ruu installation it will remove custom recovery but the S-OFF will remain

Ok, i seen someware how to restore S so only thing now is to find that GB RUU. Can someone point me to the file on that RUU list and
what about radio and suff. Does it need to be same radio version as mine now or?

look at my previous post number 12
there you will find gb ruu
also there you will see how to restore S-ON but be careful with that
follow the steps carefully on how to S-ON
ruu will take care too of radio and anything else.so no worries about it

Help in rooting Sensation XE

Guys i have already rooted 3 sensations.... but i am stuck here at one Sensation XE.
The bootloader says:
***LOCKED****
PYRAMID PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT 1.18.0000
eMMC-boot
Tried rooting it 5-6 times.... it says Zerging root... and then Root failed...
Is the "locked" thing causing the problem ? This is my first try to root this particular Sensation....
Help would be appreciated.
That hboot should be supported. Have you:
Install/uninstall HTC sync (this will leave drivers on your PC
Uninstall ANY software that might sync with the device
Ensure USB debugging activated.

Try factory resetting the phone then rooting.

im having the same problem at the moment. i have superCID but locked 1.18 hboot on 1.50.401.1 rom version. just got my phone back from repair like it. revolutionary fails every time. wondering if i need to unlock the htc way before revolutionary will work but that'll void my warranty with them i think, or will they not know aslong as its locked if i need to send it back.
i've tried downgrading with an ruu but all i get is [140] BOOTLOADER VERSION ERROR

No they all come locked like that.
Does your PC recognise the device in adb?
Have you disabled fastboot in settings?
Might be worth temporarily disabling AV/firewall too.

Shouldn't be, hboot version is supported so I don't know the issue. You followed all the guidelines as far as I can see.

but wanted to ask before I procced is any problem that my HTC Sensation 4G T-Mobile is Unlocked and I am using it in Europe (Albania) should I use a different RUU or the original one will be Fine...last question
If you're returning it to STOCK then you use the one it came with. However, if you're not sending it back to TMOUS (which I don't think you are) then you could just flash the EU 1.50.401.1 RUU

Hello,
I'm a complete noob.
My sensation 4G has decided to stop working. (HTC start up screen loops) I sent my phone to HTC but they want to take all my money. Phone repair guy says it just needs new software update, but wont do it for me. SO Ive tried flashing ROMs but it seems I dont have the correct ones. Some have CID error, some have MID error. Is this the right thing to do?
I really need to find a ROM that is compatible with my phone. I dont need anything fancy, just one that will let me text people and maybe even make a call. :crying:
I have unlocked using HTC dev.

Question...Can you enter in recovery...mean try to press the volume down and the power button at the same time (before remove the battery for 10 seconds) ...and check if you device is S-OFF and have any Recovery installed! If you have all of that then you can install a custom ROM with Micro-SSD card...

Help needed, stuck in updating rom. Can't boot

Dear fellow forummers,
I've set my HTC Sensation to S-OFF yesterday. Today I tried to update the rom to 1.50.401.1 (from 1.50.401.1) to flash it to ICS later on.
I used this file:
RUU_Pyramid_HTC_Europe_1.50.401.1_Radio_10.56.9035.00U_10.14.9035.01_M_release_223042_signed.exe
The installation got stuck at 41%, didn't do anything so the only way was to pull out USB cable and try again, again stuck at 41%.
Sweat started to rise on my forhead when I tought by myself maybe if I 'update' to an older rom, I will at least have my phone back working. So I tried the file:
RUU_Pyramid_HTC_Europe_1.45.401.3_Radio_10.56.9035.00U_10.14.9035.01_M_release_219990_signed.exe
I was unbelievably happy when I got past the 41%, my laugh ended a few seconds later when it got stuck on 44%, tried again and you guessed it.. again stuck at 44%.
I can't boot my phone at all. When I turn my phone on I get the black screen with in white/silver HTC. After putting the USB cable in and pulling it out I get the white screen with:

My problem is that I can not recover or fastboot or whatsoever at the moment
Did you try the Factory Reset option? might work...
You have recovery installed? Download and flash any other ROM.....
That's because the thread in General is for bootloops not for failed RUU installations. First mistake you made was to unplug the USB cable mid installation so don't do that again!
You can get the latest EU RUU here:

Phone is FUBAR'd - send it to HTC

Need help gaining back my phone warranty.

Hi,
I'm using sensation xe ICS (S-OFF, custom recovery 4ext)
I believe that my phone is having hardware issue that I'm thinking to send it back for repair.
It happened 1 day ago that my phone freezes 4 times in 1 days (It was completely fine since I flashed to ICS). My wifi starts unable to switch on with 'Turning Wi-Fi on' appears but nothing happens. I tried to do factory reset but doesn't help. I searched some threads that they say it might be hardware problem.
I am trying to follow the instruction from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1192300 (I'm not sure if this method is fine for my phone) to S-ON my phone so that I can get my warranty back. But I am stuck trying to reflash a official rom that my pc cannot detect my phone.
Can anyone help me with this please? Or is there any other way I can get back warranty?
Thank you
Below are all the detail I can find from my phone.

hi mate i guess that problem is due to the rom,why dont you try to flash the rom to any stable one like ELEGANTIA or ARHD or any other stable rom and chk that this problem is still there or its gone.....
and now reverting your mobile back to S-ON is risky and once i tried it earlier and got my mob fully bricked.. but i managed to send back the bricked mob and get a replacement but i don't recommend it..

Yes, I'm not sure what I did is right.
I was trying to flash my phone using RUU_PYRAMID_LE_ICS_35_S_HTC_Europe_3.32.401.105_R_Radio_11.69.3504.00U_11.22.3504.07_M_release_251961_signed.exe through pc. But the installer says that unable to detect my phone and please make sure my phone is connected to pc using usb. But my phone already connected in charge only mode.
Something more to add.
I just remembered that I accepted an update few days ago (alert pop up in phone). and my ICS is now 3.33 not 3.32.
I am trying to flash my phone back to 3.32 to see if problem still exists. But I am not sure how I can flash through sd card, my hboot now is 1.27, I have seen somewhere says that 1.27 is different
you are SOFF so you can RUN any RUU
i guess you got error 155
the problem here is you need to connect the phone in bootloader/fastboot to pc ..before running RUU
this should resolve your problem
Hey, thank you for your help. I have flashed my phone everything's fine now.

what did you do?
what is your issue exactly?
Yeah a little more background on what happened or what the phone does would be helpful.
Does the phone boot at all past the hboot or is that all you can get?
If you just want stock or that is as far as it goes I would recomend downloading the RUU for your phone, putting it in the hboot screen and run that if you can find one for your provider.
That would load you back to stock software which if you can boot to anything else will atleast get you running again.
