Hi,
Are you s-off?
If not,then s-off HERE
If yes,then, follow THIS THREAD to the letter (apart from the ROM you want to install)
Basically , GB is the wrong firmware to run JB ROMS.
You must upgrade your firmware ,but you must be s-off to do that.
Thanks!

To update without s - off, re lock your bootloader and do an ruu (ics). The unlock again and flash any jb rom.
Happy to help.

Hello Guys
First i was on Android Revolution but now i have to send my phone back,
So i reinstalled the Stock Rom directly through the 4ext recovery, but there is still 4ext recovery ?
Does it belong to the stock rom or is it still a part of android revoultion hd 6.5. ?
Shall i keep it or erase it ? (I need the phone realy totally on stock)
thanks for help

Here is the link to the guide for removing recovery

Thank you, that is what i was looking for but now i got a new problem....
i downloaded the matching ruu , but when i want to install it , there is a error...
i think because the programm says that its already on that version...
what should i do now?
when i installed an old android revolution hd version with gingerbread, there is a bootloop... i think because of the wrong firmware package... but i dont know which fits to that gingerbread rom

get the matching rom from this thread
here
the matching rom would be
RUU_Pyramid_HTC_<country/carrier>_<firmware version>_Radio_<radio>_release_<xxxx>_signed
EDIT:
oops sorry you want to know which firmware supports gingerbread right?
brief description of each firmware:
3.32 Unlocked is the latest/stable release ICS 4.0.3 FW for Sensation (sense 3.6 Version) that has the Unlocked bootloader (posted by Mike1986)
3.30 Unlocked is ICS 4.0.3 FW for Sensation (sense 3.6 Version) that has the Unlocked bootloader (posted by Mike1986)
3.24 Unlocked is ICS 4.0.3 FW for Sensation (sense 3.6 Version) that has the Unlocked bootloader (posted by Mike1986)
3.12 is ICS 4.0.3 FW before that (Sense 3.5 Version)
1.17 This is the original Revolutionary 1.17.1111 Firmware with a completed Gingerbread Firmware v 1.45 package (Radio 10.14.9035.01_M)
Also the firmware thread
fclick here for firmwares
Hm i tried it but when i was on gingerbread and wanted to update with a RUU to a clean stock rom, EVERY RUU i tried was "Wrong" and wasnt working...
So i keept the stock ics rom, without superuser and s-off, but 4ext is still there....
so i think i have to keep it, it should "damage" my warranty , or am i wrong ?

Hi, can someone please tell me what firmware should I flash for installing ICS and Sense 4.0 based ROMs?? Because I am hoping to flash OrDroid ROM and is really confused about the adequate firmware for it. Can I use the mike's unlocked 3.32 firmware, which specifies that it's for Sense 3.6? or is there any specific firmware that I should flash?
I am still on the stock GB ROM..so this is the first time I am gonna flash a Custom ROM to my phone!
I would really appreciate a prompt reply!
Thanks in advance!

Yeah Mike's firmware would do.
No need to update your firmware for sense 4 roms they are ported to from HTC one s/x so current latest firmware would suffice.

put the rom zip in the root of the sdcard and flash it from recovery
if you are S-ON i suggest you to install 4ext recovery(if you don't have it yet) and enable smartflash berfore flashing
also it works only with 3.32fw and 3.33fw version
but before everything do a nandroid backup first

edit: i just see the link thanks... i'm going to flash now ...
All you need to do is make sure you have an unlocked bootloader, s-off, it's, 4ext recovery. Once you have all that just drop the rom on ur sd, go into recovery and install the rom from zip. If u need instructions on how to s-off, unlock ur bootloader or anything else just ask.

3.33 is the newest firmware for our device .
For s on u have to enable smart flash in recovery ..

Hey guys, I have a rooted HTC Sensation XE running ICS (3.32.720, HBOOT 1.29). I want to get CyanogenMod 10.1. Do I need to S-OFF to do this, or will this JB ROM run on my current firmware?

I used this very guide and I understand that I can flash ROMS with ICS firmware. But can I also flash JB ROM?
