I think you unlocked your bootloader with htcdev, if yes you need to extract the boot.img of the ROM and after flashing the ROM you have to flash the kernel (boot.img) with fastboot, but next time search the forum, this has been discussed many times

Run the ruu without attached device, don't close the the window.
Search inside your temp folder for the rom.zip, copy it to another folder and close the window.
Inside the rom.zip remove the hboot.img and recovery.img.
Flashing with bootloader:
Rename it to PG88IMG.zip.
Put it to the root of your sd.
Reboot to bootloader and follow the instructions.
Delete the pg88img.zip, otherwise it will try to flash it everytime you access the bootloader.
Flashing from recovery:
Put it to your sd.
Wipe all partitions except sd.
Flash it from recovery.

....extract the boot.img from the rom you flash via recovery and put it somewhere in your computer like C:\Android
then when you are in recovery open cmd connect your phone using the cable provided and type adb reboot bootloader
your phone will reboot in bootloader.now type in cmd fastboot flash boot C:\Android\boot.img
then reboot your phone.

@Tectas he doesn t want to return to stock....

That's why the hboot.img and the recovery.img needs to be deleted
Without those he still would stay s-off and with the same recovery, just the system, radio and kernel would be reverted back to stock

ooo i didn t read that.....sorry man

There is a possibility to root,but it involves using HTC DEV

Hi,
What ROM did you try to install?
I recommend you try to install ARHD 6.6.2
It will install root and 4EXT recovery.

Hi,
There has been a whole spate of these problems recently.
From what I can make out,the only way you can proceed is to use HTC DEV.
This is not a good thing ,because they then know what you have done,and you stand little chance if you attempt to return the phone under warranty.
So, the decision is yours.
Wait until someone figures a way to s-off 1.27
Or go with the HTC DEV method,which will then allow you to root and install custom ROMS that have a 3.32 base.

Thanks a lot buddy !!!
I tried HTC dev but still stuck with the problem !! will have to wait for revolutionary to s off 1.27 !!

if you have unlocked bootloader by HTCdev then you can still install custom roms but only which support stock kernel like ARHD
you can just flash ARHD with stock kernel option(this is important ) through recovery... provided that you have updated firmware (3.32....)

I tried installing stock rom from here

Hi,
You need to flash the boot.img (which you can get by unzipping it from the rom .zip) via fastboot.
Install the rom first as usual on 4EXT, and then:
- Extract the boot.img and place it on your adb PC folder
- Start Sensation on fastboot usb
- Flash the boot.img: fastboot flash boot boot.img
- Reboot
If the rom you want to install has choices for custom kernels, you have to extract the .img which match the kernel you choose at rom install and flash it via fastboot as described.
If you don't do this way you will be stuck at bootloops.
The explanation of this is, as you have unlocked via HTCdev method and still s-on, the kernel are not flashed in boot partition when you install the rom from recovery, but you can flash it by using adb/fastboot from the command line.

you got stock recovery so you need to have custom recovery
4EXT is good one so
flash the recovery / install recovery from this thread
recovery here
its a apk...so just download it to your sd card and install it....when installing it'll ask you whether you are s-on or not...say "yes" -> this is pretty important
after that you can download the rom and install it...as per the steps provided by "htcsensationz710e"
if you got doubts..let me know

Thank you, I will try it and let you know what happens.

Hi,
Are you sure about your:
FIRMWARE:3.31.401.6
3.31 is a very unusual number

As mentioned above check your firmware because any ics rom will require 3.33 or 3.32 firmware, 3.33 being the Newest. So you MUST have either of those firmware to run ICS. Some roms require 3.33. So I would update my firmware to 3.33. You can update the firmware by placing the firmware file pg58img at root of SD card, pull battery, put battery back in, press volume down and power until the menu comes up, it will recognise the file and ask to continue. Press power for yes. Once it's finished updating you MUST remove the pg58img file from the device or it will continue to try an update over and over. I will send you a link on firmware. Please read over the instructions carefully! Hope this helps

[Q] HTC Sensation XE stuck after flashing CM

Hi
So, I have HTC Sensation XE, S-OFF, 4EXT recovery touch, HBOOT 1.17.1111
I've flashed CM-9.1.0-pyramid (because I figured that XE and non-XE are the same and can be flashed with the same firmware)
It didn't work, after boot .. it works for 5 seconds or so and then it freezes and reboots
I also tried CM-11-20140115-Albinoman887-pyramid .. and I encountered the same problem
I tried wiping everything /system /sd-ext /cache .. and Factory reset
I still had the same problem.. I thought I'd flash a stock ROM but I couldn't find a proper step-by-step guide
any help on how to solve this ?
I noted that every time the phone reboots.. it's clock is always "12:00" and it's always "the first time booting" .. tutorials on how to use the new android and stuff.
any other info you might need to help me I'm ready to provide.. I just can't think of anything atm
Thanks in advance.

you have old Hboot you need to upgrade your firmware to 3.33 universal .. after that format all particion except sd card and you'll be able to boot up your phone
Here is a guide for flashing firmware and the firmware , read carefull and check the md5 sum of the file before flashing http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1459767
