Then...i'd really've sent you to the index thread of
Desire S forum/development section.
With all the respect that is due,
with the amount of information you have
at the moment,
guiding you through the obstacles,
by short, strached in time, simple forum posts,
would not be the easiest of tasks,
Just read a bit first,it'll make the communication, a little bit easier

Thats fair but iv been reading about it for days and everyone seems to have different solutions :/

Hi,
This is my first post and i have done alot of reading regarding my issue but could not find the correct answer that would fix the problem. So i need some help from the experts. I apologize if i sound stupid. So here it goes.
I have a htc sensation from t-mobile. (58100) I got this from a friend when it was stuck on htc logo on startup and would go no where from there.
So i did some research and installed different firmwares from (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1459767) and roms and would get different issues.
I installed "cm-9.1.0-pyramid.zip" and "OpenSensation2-20121203-pyramid.zip" with firmware 1.17 and 3.32 i was able to boot to the homepage past all the logos and loading but then the device would restart on its own and continue to do that everytime. I did do a complete system wipe except the SD card option in "4EXT recovery" but made no difference.
Then i installed the "DarkSense 1.1.0" with firmware 3.33. I would get past the htc logo but after a few minutes on the next htc sensation xe logo screen it would restart and do samething over and over until i do a battery pull.
This is what i get when i do the Vol down + power:

This is all i know about the phone. I would really really appreciate if someone can guide me through this. I'm sure someone else must have faced this issue at some point. Please tell me what i should do to be able to use this phone. I don't mind using an old rom or firmware as long as the phone is working.
Thank You very much in advance

Hi,
You need to update your radio,in order to run ICS
Look HERE
Read it carefully,especially about the checksum.
Hey all. I posted this in the wrong forum by accident, so reposting here. Also, this may have been asked before but I did a search and couldn't find a thread quite like it!
I am currently running Android 2.3.3 and HTC Sense 2.1 on my HTC Desire S. I have used the Revolutionary method to S-OFF and root the phone, which allowed me to uninstall branded bloatware and add some interesting apps.
I have not been able to update the phone as quite frankly I have no idea what I'm doing, and the OTA update will brick the phone. Can anyone please tell me what I need to do to get the latest version of Android and HTC Sense?
I'm in the UK on the Three network. After doing an extensive search for the specific RUU matching that, I can't seem to find it unfortunately.
Many thanks for your time.
I'd suggest you just flash a custom sense rom from dev section, which is very easy to do. and a lot of those are better than the HTC ICS rom
If you really want to go back to stock HTC, follow this video guide, check video description for links
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X71RtQQjbqk
You can find 3 branded RUU here, at the bottom of the list
http://www.shipped-roms.com/index.php?category=android&model=Saga
Ahhh thanks so much for that list! There was a forum post I found with details on how to unroot, but all the links to the RUUs were dead. Does it matter which RUU I use so long as it's meant for the UK? I can't seem to find the one for Three network, unless it's under "H3G_UK"...

Is your phone branded? If not, just use the Europe ruu

Well it has a Three network splash screen and sadly it's still locked to the network, but other than that I don't think so

Yes that's the one
I'm very sorry to have to bump this, but I followed the instructions that I was given and ended up with the infamous Error [140].
While fastbooting, I now have:

And when I try to use the OTA update, it goes straight into this Fastboot screen. I literally have no idea what's going on now.

you must install the original RUU, which will remove all your data and install original ROM Android 2.3.3, recovery, hboot and radio
i suggest RUU_Saga_HTC_Europe_1.28.401.1_Radio_20.28b.30.0805U_38.03.02.11_M_release_177977_signed-ORIGINAL.exe from here http://www.androidfiles.org/ruu/?developer=Saga
or you can put this zip on your sd card, and install it from bootloader: http://dfiles.eu/files/bh4avk6uz (easier method)
Thank you for your link and RUU file. I tried running the Europe RUU.exe, but came up with "Error 131: Customer ID error". Still the same information in the bootloader as before though.
Sorry to bump this again, does anyone have a fix?
Or would it be easier to root and s-off once more then flash a rom that was similar to stock?

probably be easier to s-off and flash ice cold, it's the closest to stock with none of the bugs of stock

Hi Guys (long time listener first time caller etc etc)
I finally got the courage to install a custom rom on to my HTC One XL (Telstra). After unlocking it installing the custom bootloader (2.5.0.0 TW) I have tried to install some roms and get no where with a few of them and boot loops if they actually install.
The two I can get to install but boot loop are ViperXL and cyanogenmod 10.0.
I am thinking I am doing something really simple wrong, but have tried a lot of things but no luck.
Details below; If there is anything else which might shed some light please let me know.

oh, I did install all of Telstra's updates prior to starting. The last one brought android up to 4.1.2 I think.

Welcome mate.
Couple of things...
The HBoot version you have won't allow you to update the boot.img of the rom your flashing as part of rom installation. You have 2 options - first is to s-off which pretty much lets you do whatever you like. Check in the original development thread for how to s-off if you're interested.
The second option is to flash (install) the boot.img in bootloader mode.
You can do that either before or after you flash the rom. Before I was s-off I did it both before and after.....
There's a few ways to do it including using adb or some apps will do it automatically for you. Take a look here for one example: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1870455
And the second thing - good idea to post questions in the Q&A thread. More people look through there so you'll get your answer faster.
Get rid of twrp5.0, had the same issue, flaahed back to 2.3.3.1 and all is good...

Thanks guys. I did the fastboot flash boot and it all came good.
Appreciate the help!
So I did a short search for the answer to this but seems like I cant quit find the answer or it just confusing me and im getting lost. I have an HTC Sensation T-Mobile From the USA model PG58100. This phone is I assume in a bootloop as when it turns on it just stays on the HTC screen. I put it in recovery mode and tried doing just the factory reset but the phone still loops after ward. So i know assume i have to reinstall the stock rom. this phone is not and has never been rooted to my knowledge as I did not receive this new so I am not 100% sure. here is what is displayed when i go into recovery mode

I have downloaded Elegencia Sence 4.1 V8.0.0 zip but I will install whatever you guys feel is best for me. I just need the phone back up and running. it does not need to be rooted or have anything special completely stock would be fine. The simplest way to get it working again is all I need. Thank you in advance.

There you have a bunch of RUUs try with some of TMOUS but choose some newer one.
So I lost my phone this week, and my buddy offered me up his old Inspire for free. He didn't mention the fact that it's like, midway through a failed flash (soft-bricked, I guess?). I've been searching and reading, but I just seem to get further down the rabbit hole with what exactly I'm supposed to do. Really, I haven't run across any threads with this problem yet.
It's currently S-ON, but has CWM installed. There doesn't seem to be a rom installed, because it'll hang on the HTC splash screen on boot (matter of fact, he didn't even give me an SD card with the phone, so I had to scavenge one of my good SanDisk ones) and I'm not entirely sure where to go from here to get it up and running. I don't care much for the Inspire's stock rom, but at this point I'm in dire need of a phone and if it's easier to go back to stock than it is to fix this mess and have a nice ROM, I can live for a little while.
What should I do, and how exactly should I do it? It's been quite a while since I tried this (and even then it was with my lineage of janky huawei handsets).
EDIT: I've got a screencap of the info but the board spam prevention won't let me link it.

My strong hunch is that he didn't flash the boot.img in the ROM zip, which you need to do for S-On Unlocked phones. When you flash a ROM in the recovery, make sure you also fastboot flash the boot.img from the ROM zip. The Ace Think Tank thread in DHD General has links with instructions on how to do that.

Aha! That did the trick. I just flashed Carbon on this thing, but now the Android keyboard won't work. It's okay, I'm sure I can fix it. Thanks for the help!
Yeah, that'll be an issue for the ROM thread. Though of course, if you didn't full wipe first, try that.
