Need help with Sensation xe z715e - HTC Sensation

I need a step by step guide to update my Htc sensation xe.
It is still running under GB 2.3.4
The thing is i can't go through with a OTA update because when i bought it it was already running under a custom rom which is 1.73.708.2 ( software version)
Under recovery mode it says.
Locked
Pyramid PVT ship S-off RL
Hboot 1.18.0000
Clockwork mod
AlpharevX v4.0.1.4
If there's any info that you would guys need just let me know.
Anyone's help would be much appreciated.:fingers-crossed:

flash 3.33 universal firmware from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1459767
follow the instructions to the letter
and before flashing check md5 sums(important)
after that you will have to flash an ics or jelly bean rom from recovery
because your current rom(gingerbread) won't boot with ics firmware

of course you'll get bootloop...also you phone is never bricked until you have bootloader
the reason is you have an old firmware...update it to ICS firmware (if you flashed ARHD 6.x series)
here is the firmware thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1412618
get 3.32 firmware from the thread...and follow steps 4 and 5 from this thread to update the firmware
then reboot and you are good to go
one suggestion : READ READ READ until you understand completely
Thanks
Thank you so much i thought i had stuffed up my phone!

Hi,
With an hboot of 1.18 ,you should try to S-off,and SuperCID using revolutionary.
Look Here
When you come to CWM use 5.0.2.0 HERE
When you are successfully s-off,and SuperCID,then you can Go HERE ,where you will find everything you need to upgrade to ARHD ICS...
Read everything carefully,then read it AGAIN,and you should be fine.

[Q] confused about s off after ota ics

hi
i have a sensation xe.
i s off"d it with revolutionary tool before ics update.
now i am thinking of flashing ordroid 9.0.0
i just want to ask whether it is okay to proceed with flashing a custom recovery and then the rom or are there any extra steps i must take??
S off is security off if you do not s off you will have to flash rooms differently and you will not have as much freedom. Its best to s off in my onion if possible. Do search read guide about how to s off. I am rooted and s off and it makes flashing really easy in my opnion.
So go ahead and s off. Before you flash rom make sure and have correct firmware for the rom. Ics takes 3.32 firmware. Gingerbread roms take a different firmware. I use mostly ics or 4.0.3 roms so I use 3.32 firmware. This is the one you will need also for the ics rom. You can find the firmware in Android development. So s off get your firmware then you should be able to flash your rom. Best of luck and hope this helps

well, if you're already S-OFF and all is good, go ahead and flash a custom recovery of course, either CWM or 4EXT...then as realsis mentioned, you'll need a 3.32 firmware for ICS. if you're already SuperCID, go to the relative thread and download the first one you find. follow the flashing instructions and all will be good.
also, you will need to super wipe before flashing a new sense 4 ROM.
that said, please backup your original ROM before flashing a custom ROM.

Hi,
Since you are s-off via Revolutionary,you should be fine to flash custom recovery and custom ROM.
Does it still say "Revolutionary" in your hboot ,after your OTA update?
Don't forget your firmware! Very important OK. 3.32 for ICS roms. Best wishes happy flashing!

you have to upgrade your firmware version in order to flash cm9 because it can't be run on gingerbread firmware

since you have 1.18 hboot version(gingerbread firmware) you should have done revolutionay.io method to S-OFF
http://revolutionary.io/
S-OFF in your situation is very easy
but you must have a working device
so flash this gb rom from recovery
http://d-h.st/bqL
i suggest to use 4ext recovery since you are on S-ON
before flashing the rom enable smartflash from 4ext

it doesn't matter what was you stock rom
you can flash any rom in sensation/xe/4G devices
by the way unfortunately there in no orange uk ruu with your firmware
exists only one with a lower firmware than yours but you can't use it because you are on S-ON(S-ON devices can't downgrade)
so your options are limited

you can't flash any pg58img.zip(except ruu.exe) directly from bootloader
use step 2 from here on how to flash 4ext recovery
