Firstly, I am very sorry if I have done wrong. But I couldnt just find help in other threads. I want to help a friend fix his Sensation XE Z715e. It stucks/reboots on the HTC BootScreen.
The device is Bootloader Unlocked but S-On. I read some thread and read about the RUU. I relocked the bootloader and ran the RUU. After the whole process... The RUU program said "Completed" but the device is still stuck / Reboots. Is there any other means? Please I would be glad to get early response as I am somewhere I can download any needed file now. I migth not get the chance tomorrow.
Attached is the "fastboot getvar all" details. Please help!
can you show me the detail of RUU that you've already installing..?, i mean..did you already try this RUU..?
if yes..but still stuck..
did you already tried (while your bootloader is still in unlocked state)...tried to installing a boot.img that are extracted from the last custom rom that you've using it..?
or if still stuck..did you already tried to installing a different custom recovery (ofcourse this is while your bootloader is in unlocked state too)...anyway what custom recovery do you had before..?, if before just using cwm..now just tried installing 4ext touch recovery..and after that you tried installing another custom rom...and don't forget to enable smartflash future from 4ext recovery before installing another custom rom..
if still stuck...just tried flashing a boot.img manually from fastboot.. "fastboot flash boot boot.img"

why do you flashing CWM recovery again..?,
did you already tried flashing 4ext recovery from the link that i give it to you above..?, just tried that 4ext..
just tried before flashing it...
"fastboot erase cache" then after that "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"

that's so weird...
i think there's something problem in emmc partition..but i don't know what's that exactly..
i think the best way to fix that..just brought your sensation to the HTC service center..or 3rd party service center that already had a riff box / jtag tools that can flashing your sensation emmc from the beginning..
Hi,
It seems that you were going along the correct lines with the RUU you were running.
My only suggestion would be to relock your bootloader and try it again.
If it still fails , then, as JJeamy suggests , an HTC center would be the next step.

what command did you run to flash twrp? "fastboot flash recovery <twrpfilename>.img" if you ran "fastboot flash boot <twrpfilename>.img" then you need to run "fastboot flash boot boot.img" to allow you to boot again then run the correct command "fastboot flash recovery <twrpfilename>.img" to flash recovery.
i used the hasoon 2000 aio kit if that means anything
thanks for your quick reply though

i think recovery is flashed where boot is supposed to be, you need to flash boot.img from fastboot.
Reflash everything manually reflash recovery reflash boot.I'mg
i am new to this stuff so please be patient with me
how do i reflash manually
thanks
look at my first post and this post for the files http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=38217541&postcount=297
ok sorry but im confused i tried to reflash but i get nothing to happen its the same as before stuck on teamwin screen
so you confirmed flashing in fastboot recovery to recovery and boot to boot? if so, i would just fastboot oem lock then run ruu and start over without the kit this time. all you need to do afterwards is use ur token to reunlock, flash recovery in fastboot then copy rom to sdcard and flash, if you get booted into sense somehow turn off fast boot in power and turn on usb debugging in developer options then issue adb reboot bootoader or adb reboot recovery depending on where you are trying to go.
i dont have the ruu for rogers 3.17 though any idea where i can find this
thanks for your patience so far
hi guys i really hate to be such a pain but i need my phone back can anyone give me a idiots guide to getting it back working again i am still stuck at the teamwin screen or the fastboot screen cant go anywhere else
thanks in advance guys

why did you wipe data and dalvik after rom's installation?
follow these steps
full wipe from recovery
flash the rom
flash gapps
reboot
done
note:the initial boot takes a while

no it doesn't matter if you didn't root the stock one
cm10 comes already pre-rooted
do this
connect your device in fastboot mode to pc(in bootloader must say fastboot usb)
extract the boot.img from the rom.zip and place it in your adb and fastboot folder(i assume you have installed sdk tools)
open in that folder a cmd window and do fastboot flash boot boot.img
then do fastboot reboot

you did right
don't use smartflash since you are on S-OFF
that means you have 4ext recovery
do this:
format all partitions except sdcard from 4ext
flash the rom
let it boot
don't flash any other kernel

Hi,
I have some serious problem with my Desire S. My recovery is probably broken, TWRP logo pops up but that the phone just reboots. After deleting cache and flashing new recovery I´m unable to boot my device, stuck on CM logo. My hardware keys never worked for booting to botloader. Is there any other way to recover my device? I tried fastboot reboot and adb after powering on the device but nothing.

Can you post your boot info? Hboot?S-ON or S-OFF?
You can access fastboot?And write without errors?
Try 4ext recovery but first when you download check md5 for file.

Boot ur phone into fastboot and put the recovery.img inside ur fastboot folder on ur pc (make sure u rename ur recovery file "recovery.img) plug in ur phone and type this command.
fastboot boot recovery.img
See if that boot u into recovery then u can try flash a rom from there. I posted latest 4ext recovery in desire s general thread, look for that and try the above command using 4ext recovery

Unfortunately the recovery problem is not fixed. TWRP logo appears but that the phone reboots.
EDIT: I booted 4ext recovery in safe mode, wiped all and it fixed that. Thank you so much.
What did I do. I used the windows tool KGS Utility v8.0 and want to flash openrecovery-twrp-2.8.0.3-m8.imag. I had to rename the image to boot.image and flasht it and after that I can only get in to CWM and flash a rom but it wont reboot. Please help?

Thank you for your reply to help me. I successfully installed 4 roms but when I reboot it hangs with the first vibration and a white screen with green htc lettres. Does 4ext recovery does the difference?

I have installed latest 4ext recovery via the windows tool KGS Utility v8.0 because flashing the zip via cwm is aborted.
So I put the phone in fastboot and use the tool to install 4ext recovery online. Than the tool wants to reboot and I get stuck but I left the usb in and put out the battery and again in. Than via vol down and power to recovery/fastboot and now i have ext4 recovery.
Tried to install a rom but it is the same again. I won`t reboot. Please help because this is for me to difficult to get right.

I fixed it myself and a little help from androidworld forum in the Netherlands.
I tried to fix it with this xda page: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1631861
But I came till end of step 4B. I then tried to flash with the command "fastboot flash boot boot.img" but get the message that boot.image was not recognised. The file boot.image was extracted from a ROM zip. Like the threat said put out from the tab kernel/stock the file boot.image.
Than I tried the same thing with a tool KGS Utility v8.0 earlier mentioned in my post, the same that give me the problems.
Startup the tool KGS Utility v8.0 and did step to flash a boot.image. Put the file boot.image in de tab C:\Program Files (x86)\KGS Utility\tools and run it. After flashing closed the tool KGS Utility v8.0 reboot the phone. It took a while but it reboot
Now I am on ViperS 5.2.1 with SebastianFM 1.0.4 kernel
