I have tried flashing JB4.2 and Kitkat but neither works. I had Kitkat working but it was a bit laggy so I was going back to JB.

In case flashing the latest 4ext doesn't help. Usually 4ext gives an error code, what does it say when it aborts the intallation?

That zip can't be flashed. You need to extract the img in there, then boot into bootloader (fastboot) and use this command
"fastboot flash recovery [filename].img" (without quotes and replace "[filename]" with the actual name of the file)

Hi All,
Just want a bit of advise.
I have been using my old Sensation XE as my work phone for a while now, but would like to put a custom ROM on it.
At the moment it is standard, and think it could do with being updated.
Also do any of the ROM's allow you to use the built in buttons on the XE?
I have put the ZOMBI-X ROM on my Asus Transformer and have been impressed with that, so any advise would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance

Right, I am going to have a go - any guides anywhere?
I made a start last night, but it would not install the ROM zip file - kept coming back with an error, havent got the error to hand at the moment.
The problem I have at moment tho is it wont actually boot to recovery it kept freezing on the HTC logo screen, and I had to remove the battery to get it to boot back to normal mode.
Any ideas?
I know I am more than likely going to need to start again, but any tips would be appreciated.

I have checked and phone is s-on.
At the moment I dont have 4ext installed - I assume that is just a better way of installing ROM?
I had been trying to push clockworkmod recovery to phone, but that is where the problems have started.
What steps would you recommend followin?

Bit of an update, I can get the 1.0.0.5 version of 4ext to work, but cant get 1.0.0.6 to load after installing and then trying to boot to recovery it just sits on the HTC logo screen.
If I try and flash the CyanogenMod11/12 by ivanich ROM from version 1.0.0.5 version of 4ext I get an error.

Thats because u need the latest recovery to flash CM 11/12 roms. U could try latest TWRP Recovery but to be honest id stay away from it coz it has been corrupting some phones partitions. R u flashing 4ext via fastboot commands?

Will try again by downloading the image from another source, and let you know how it goes.

S-ON users have to flash boot.img manually via fastboot after flashing ROM.
Here are the steps:
1. Extract ROM zip file with winrar or winzip
2. Follow this guide on flashing boot.img from extracted ROM folder LINK or this video guide Video LINK
3. After that reboot and wait for ROM to boot

It doesn't matter. I works both ways.
I preffer to do it before rom install because after installing the rom I just reboot and wait for it to boot.

How can i install a custom kernel after installing a new Rom? i tried flashing it(zip file) from custom recovery but it was not sucessful

Same procedure as above.
Kernel is integrated into boot.img.
So if you want to flash kernel from rom X , just flash boot.img from rom X.
If you S-OFF your phone then you can flash boot from recovery.
If i want to flash another kernel and not that from rom then what i have to do?

You don' t need stock kernel as you are unlocked.

Because your kernel overwrites the recovery with the one that' s within the kernel, because it is a kernel with recovery.
Flash only TWRP .img file via adb.
Go to TWRP' s official page and download the latest TWRP for your device.
