[Q] Serious problem HTC sensation XE - HTC Sensation

I have very bad problem with my phone. I wanted to install the cm 11 and its gapps, the cm I was able to install the gapps but it gave me the error status7. I read that to solve this problem I had to update the CWM. I installed from the recovery 6.0.0.4, and since recovery from I told him to do the reboot, you aren't more turned on. I have a phone that will not turn on and I can not do anything. Is there a way to completely reset the phone using only the pc from 0? Sorry for my bad english, i'm italian.

Have you tried accessing bootloader like this? Take out battery, sim card and memory card and then put battery only in, plug in usb 2 to computer and the micro usb to phone and then you should see the orange light come on and this will indicate that the phone is connected then open adb through android sdk and type adb reboot bootloader and tell me if it works

I've updated the recovery, by simply downloading the package. Zip from SD card and installing it from recovery. If I press the power button nothing happens, the screen remains black and does not even have a little light.

I tried as you said yourself, but when it is charging (or attached to the PC, or to a plug) the orange LED is not lit. Is not lit, the only answer I got was that the computer told me "driver installation failed".

Cwm itself has problems with the htc sensation, why did you not install Twrp? If you are able to access the recovery have you tried flashing Twrp from there, not sure if you can but have a search.

I can not get into recovery, it does not do anything. The screen does not turn on in any way, and in any way the charge attack, the little light does not turn orange.
From the link you gave me, I have to download and install these: hTCDriver-4.2.0.001.exe?

I'm sorry, I can not understand well the first three prerequisites unbrick project:
1) I downloaded the live CD of Linux that put at the end and it is an ISO file. I have to mount with Daemon Tools? And as for the automount disabled and without unity, are parameters that I decide to install?
2) Packages for devices that are at the end are divided into 32-bit and 64-bit. Are the bits of my operating system or the phone (if they have)?
excuse my ignorance.
3) What is RUU and where do I find the right one for my device?

I think because it corresponds with the region is Europe, the cid not know what is.
In the manual it says to download the latest RUU for my device, then the second ones I've found I should be the third, 2 October 2012. But if there were others on that page are not there?

yes you run the exe from pc
connect the device to pc in fastboot mode
edit: but you will be able to do that when you will gain access to the bootloader again

There is a slight problem, the first command that I write on the terminal,. / Brickdetect.sh, I should recognize the device bricked. Instead it is not found. How so? When I attack my phone to pc, QHSUSB_DLOAD appears in the device list, but marks it as not specified.

[Q] Not totally bricked yet, i really need to fix it

Hello guys, i am new here, yes its my first post, yes i have been posting on forums in the past, and yes i want to cry.
I just got this brand new nexus s from Videotron a couples of months back, someone told me to look for Cyanogenmod, i did, i installed it, with superuser rooted/unlocked. loved it, untill recently i rebooted the device due to battery outage, and it was stuck to the google logo, then i opened clockworkmod and did a restore, it worked!
Then, last week, an update was pushed to the phone about jelly beans, (4.1.1), i clicked INSTALL NOW, i was at home, plugged in.
The install failed (Android logo on his back with red triangle warning) i waited 2 hours, it was still there, i had to remove the battery.
Now, Clockworkmod is not starting. (Its the default bootloader (as usual) and the next page (in the RECOVERY option) its the default "Android system recovery <3a>" with those 4 options
-reboot system now
-apply update from /sdcard
-wipe data/factory reset
-wipe cache partition
...
i did them all, tried everything its still not booting.
I tried everything i could find on all the forums, fastboot, adb nvflash... but. when i plug in my device in the pc i don't think its seen by the maching (unless i click the "Turn on USB Storage) BUT I CANT CLICK IT :'(
Model # is GT-i9020T
I really need a pro to help me out, and i promise to give you compensation if you can fix it, via paypal.
I am on facebook daily, on IRC too. msn too,
I don't care if we manage to install ice cream sandwich, jellybean or even freaking BBq peanuts..
I just need a working "facebook machine"
Thank you and ill be looking at this post every hour.

I looked at some tutorials about odin, but i cannot find all the appropriate files for my phone.
Would you be able to point me in the correct direction?
Free advice : you need to install fastboot on your computer.
You can fix this by holding volume up, and then hold power at the same time until you see the bootloader menu.
Then, connect usb, and on computer type fastboot devices
You should get two lines of output. One device is listed something like 359G7HF6824
That means fastboot can see your device.
You need to download cwm recovery.img
Flash it to your phone by typing fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
...which will send recovery.img to 'recovery' partition on your phone.
Now use the volume keys to select recovery option, press power key to select.
In recovery flash a new ROM. Download one from development section if you need to.
If you find any of these steps difficult, please ask for more help.
However, all the help you need can be found by reading through the stickies in Q&A, General, and Development.

Install the PDANet Android drivers, this usually works well.

Then use fastboot to flash a recovery as bedalus wrote.

[Q] Problems Returning Sensation XE to stock

Would somebody be able to help?
My phone has been playing up a lot lately. I was running MIUI.
Also the volume buttons do not work on the phone.
At the moment i have a phone which is stuck on the MIUI boot screen(just the yellow "MI" symbol)
I would like to get my phone back to stock, i have read so far that i will have to use an RUU (not sure if this is suitable or not for my situation?)
There are a few problems i have with this.
I have no idea of knowing what CID i am running, and no idea how to find it with my phone in its current state.
When i do look on the links to RUU pages i am unable to find one that is suitable for Orange (EE??) UK
[*[I have no experience of ADB, and if i need to use that i will need a complete NOOBS guide to how to use it.
Any help would be appreciated, even links to other pages etc.
Many thanks in advance for your help

Hi,
The RUU runs from the PC.
All you need to do on the phone is to go to bootloader,then, fastboot, and plug in your USB cable and run the RUU.

then connect it to pc via usb

Does the PC not recognize that anything is connected or does it detect that its plugged in but can't find the driver?

Currently I think it recognizes the phone as a media device (or similar, I forgot the name), not as a disk drive. I am on a Mac, and I have Android File Transfer installed, which then tells me that the device cannot be opened. On Windows it couldn't be opened either although it talked about a driver issue. I currently only have a Mac, but from Monday I could work on a Windows machine again.
The ROM currently being installed is the original AT&T provided ROM.
Thanks so much!

What version? IS it already installed on your phone? I'm trying to find out if you require MTP drivers or not. Latest version of sense/stock Roms require MTP driver to access the SD card.
In any case I wouldn't suggest using any version of TWRP above 2.3.3.1
So, I would download twrp 2.3.3.1 and check the md5
then fastboot flash recovery recoveryfilename.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
select recovery from bootloader then try to mount sdcard with twrp.

I see, this all sounds like I need to wait for a windows machine.
I am not sure what ROM version, unfortunately. I bought the phone in December from AT&T, and it all looks like it asks for MTP drivers. I will try this with a Windows machine and then get back to this post - thank you so very much for your help.

Alright, I have tried this with the latest HTC Sync manager: the MTP Drivers however won't install. I have tried with the One X+ of my Dad (which is also brand new, so probably requires the newest version also), and it installs fine and appears as a media device in the explorer. Mine however does not do anything, and driver installation says it fails to install the driver. I have tried manually installing the drivers, however, it seems to have to do with the phone because when I disconnect it suddenly Windows 7 is able to install those drivers, and as mentioned before it also works with a functional phone.
Next week I will be back at work and I have a Windows 8 machine there. I don't have high hopes that it works there, but since there seems to be an MTP driver issue with Win7, maybe there's a chance.
Is there anything else I could do?
Thanks!
PS: don't use your vacation time to root your phone...haha.

OK, so on Windows 8 I am able to install the driver, and it does not fail like in Win7, but I still can't access the mounted storage. The message of the device is:
This device cannot start. (Code 10)
The process hosting the driver for this device has terminated.​
Is there anything else I can do, or should I rather get a new phone?

Did you do all of what exad said in his earlier post (quoted below) already?
exad said:
So, I would download twrp 2.3.3.1 and check the md5
then fastboot flash recovery recoveryfilename.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
select recovery from bootloader then try to mount sdcard with twrp.

Yes, in fact, I cannot connect to the phone with this strange driver issue, which means none of the commands actually do anything.

Are you rebooting to bootloader to do the fastboot commands? In bootloader it should say Fastboot in red. Then after a couple seconds that should change to Fastboot USB. I don't think fastboot needs the specific drivers to be on the PC like mounting the SD card requires.

Well, when I turn on the phone, all I get is the TWRP interface. Mounting from there doesn't do anything. I am not in fact in bootloader. Maybe I am doing something wrong here!!

You are definitely doing something wrong. fastboot commands only work within bootloader/fastboot and adb commands only work while the rom is loaded up or in sideload mode in TWRP. It's assumed you know this prior to rooting.

Turn off the phone. Then hold volume down and briefly press the power button. Don't let go of volume down until it gets to the boot loader screen. Wait for fast bot USB to display. Then you can try exad's fast boot commands.

Oh, thanks so much. I actually did know this from rooting my old phone - I guess I forgot.
It doesn't go into Fastboot USB though, stays at Fastboot. Is there another trick? Thanks so much!

It should change to FASTBOOT USB if you are plugged into a computer. If you connected to the computer after you got to bootloader mode, you might have to press volume up or down to get it to switch to FASTBOOT USB Maybe this is the root of your problem. Have you tried multiple USB cables? Is there any crud in the micro-USB port on your phone? It's a little odd that the micro-USB port would break in a manner that charging would still work but not data connections, but I'm starting to wonder if that isn't the case.

Hi again,
I tried your version but I get the following error:
BROM ERROR : S_BROM_CMD_STARTCMD_FAIL (2005)
Tried the general fixes of this error but no help. Also, I used the latest SP Flash Tool from the official website and another ROM and it worked (only without battery).
I'll try on a different computer with your downloads to see if I get the same result.

This means that the device will try to turn it on, not start flash mode.
First, charge the battery.
Do not use the latest flashtoolt, use what i've shown, the older version!!
Reinstall the drivers, use another cable.
The firmware is working, I've used it many times! :good:
Feedback please...
Hi there,
I want to root also, can anyone give a feedback on theses procedures. Are they working?
Thanks

Sorry,
what i meant was that i managed to flash a stock rom but it never actually booted up, it just gets to a spinning disc
but originally i never enabled usb debugging so i fear that is where the issue is do you know of anyway to enable usb-debugging via adb\fastboot?

Unfortunately I do not know how to work this way with adb / fastboot.
I did not have to use it yet.
If you do not start the system to do a hard reset, it will surely be good afterwards.
After the hard reset, the first start is 15-20 minutes, just wait patiently.
I will also make a video about the installation, I hope it will help.

Phone bricked , stuck in bootloop

Hi guys,
I have this phone (european dual sim version) and tried to update it via Newflasher. Now the phone doesnt start anymore, it is stuck in bootloop, just says sony and then it says that my phone is corrupt and it will not boot. I dont have enough battery to repair it via Companion. Is there any way to avoid going to the Sony Service?
I should mention that I tried to flash firmware 58.0.A.22.21 Europe Customized EEA. What should I flash to get it to start? Any idea is welcome.
Thank you.

For your information, I have been dealing with a bootloop the last few days. I have now just tried a new USB cable with a new USB port (not the official Sony cable) and have fixed my issues. Perhaps you could give that a try as well.

I used the "fastboot devices" command and it worked, it showed me serial number of the phone. So it seems to be connected. But it doesnt want to change the boot partition. .... As for the cable, I first used a very old usb to usb c cable. Then I used one from my iqos charger. Because my laptop doesnt have a usb C port. So you really think the cable could f..k up things while flashing?? Should I try and find another one in the house maybe and try again?

Your ADB might be out of date and not have the A/B partition fastboot commands. Try updating through instructions here:
https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/platform-tools
I never thought a USB cable would be the issue either, but I tried a new USB port and quality cable and suddenly everything works fine.
Also confirm you're using newflasher to flash the correct firmware for your model. When I flashed the XQ-AS72 firmware on my XQ-AS52 I experienced bootloops like what you're experiencing.
If you still have issues, you can boot to recovery with these instructions and select "power off". You should be able to charge your phone to 80% to use the xperia companion app. https://www.mobilereset99.com/hard-reset-sony-xperia-1-ii/

Give your phone a charge and give the Xperia companion app a try.
If you use the included charger and cable, it will charge faster than it drains even if you leave it in bootloop. But you can also try powering down using recovery options.
Let me know if that works.

It should charge. You should be able to hold volume down on boot (green light top corner, black screen will happen) and try an xperia companion app restore by following the repair options (select "My device is not detected by computer". It should be charging as it restores from your computer as well.
