Hello,
I hope you can help me on this one. I have a HTC Sensation XE with S-ON, locked bootloader. Region for RUU is europe .401.. I wanted to install a new rom and the process took so long that I removed the battery and started it again to find out that my ROM was wiped and the new one don't work. I was able to go in recovery but after trying like 10 other roms I got no hope left. Then I found out that there is a RUU that I can use to bring my phone back to stock again. I used one RUU which I think met my phone(I could have been wrong). After starting the update like 15 minutes or so it got stuck at the installing screen and gave me a 150 error. I wanted to try again but when I started the phone I only saw a grey HTC logo and 4 triangles in every corner. I did try it again but still got the 150 error. I am lost and I hope you can help me with this.
Btw. my sd-card is lost and the phone don't have a sd-card now.

i think you are using the wrong ruu.exe
can you post your firmware version and cid?
the grey htc logo and 4 triangles means that you are stuck in ruu mode

Oh wait.. found what you was looking for but unfortunately I get nothing in version-main. Does this mean I got no firmware? And in "product" I got Pyramid, isn't this supposed to be Pyramid LE?

pyramid is the code name for sensation devices
i don't think that matters
in your 1st post you said that your region is europe (401)
so your firmware version has the 401 number on it
you used the right ruu but i don't know what went wrong
try to boot into bootloader
if you manage that unlock it from htcdev site
flash a custom recovery(i suggest 4ext)
then flash a custom rom

Hello, I know this may seem like a redundant post but I cannot for the life of me figure out how to un-brick this phone..
Currently the only menu I can get into is the Hboot menu, where it says
RELOCKED
HBoot-1.27.0000
RADIO-11.24.3504.10_M
eMMc-boot
This phone has never been rooted or modified in anyway and just started this bootloop, where I've tried unlocking the bootloader, flashing different recovery's and many RUU files and nothing has worked..
When trying to enter the recovery menu from the HBoot menu it the phone simply resets itself and back to the dreaded HTC bootloop..
The phone is currently on 3.32.666.13 I believe and there is no RUU that I can use to reflash it because the latest RUU for Bell Sensations is
1.45.666.5 and it errors out saying it's the incorrect version.
I've went through many tutorials and searched through many posts trying to get s-off but there is no method that will work because I cannot get into the recovery or the android os or perform a factory reset even..
If anybody has any ideas or can shine some light onto this problem I'd greatly appreciate it

Hello, thanks for the links.
I've tried both the BM RUU's and some of the HTC Europe ones as their firmware versions are higher, but they error out with
<T192024><DEBUG><OUT>FAILED (remote: 43 main version check fail)</OUT>
or
<T003702><DEBUG><OUT>FAILED (remote: 41 model id check fail)</OUT>
(From RUU Logs)
it was my understanding I need one with 3.32.666.13 or higher retaining the same '666' region type code and a higher or equal firmware to the one already installed, as far as I'm aware no such RUU exists
I've tried taking the rom from either RUU's and flashing the zip manually with fastboot with either a locked or unlocked bootloader using commands like "fastboot -s SH16LV603891 flash zip C:\rom.zip" and it either says something like "remote:signature fail" or "Remote:not allowed" (with unlocked bootloader)

Unfortunately no matter which RUU I use or whether the bootloader is locked or unlocked it errors out before it can finish

Is is possible to get supercid without booting into the android operating system or recovery menu? so I could at least flash a custom rom or not be limited with my fastboot commands

But you can try to follow THIS GUIDE to install a custom ROM.

Hi,
I am running out of things to suggest.
The best thing would obviously be a RUU to reset everything.
Maybe try to re-install the recovery.

It's got me stumped too! I've tried multiple recoveries.. I wonder if it's possible that it could be a hardware-related problem? As I should be able to enter the recovery at this point I think, unless I'm missing something? Would any RUU that is over higher than the current firmware be suitable? for example it currently sits at 3.32.666.13, say I were to use "RUU-Pyramid-ICS-hTC-Europe-3.33.401.53-Radio-11.76A.3504.00U-11.24A.3504.31-M-release-280871-signed" The firmware is higher but the region code doesn't match up. If I were to use "RUU_Pyramid_BM_1.45.666.5_Radio_10.56.9035.00U_10.14.9035.01_M_release_220007_signed" the firmware version is too low, but the region matches up. I figured if I used just an unbranded stock rom.zip based off of 3.32 or 3.33 and flashed it via fastboot with an unlocked/locked bootloader I may have some luck but it was a no-dice situation..
The model of this sensation is a PG58110 with a manufacture date of 2011/06/17
Could these possibly be the wrong RUU's ? I tried ones for the Sensation 4G and regular Sensation
as I wasn't positive which one I have.. No luck either way

Hi,
Did you fully read THIS LINK that I gave you?
It shows various alternatives to just running a RUU.
It helps you to determine which of the 3 types of Sensation you have.
Try running all the RUU's that are even reasonably close to your version.
It will only throw up an error if it is no good.
Remember that the phone should be locked or relocked.

My phone, HTC Sensation XE, is S-ON, on default ROM, and has HBOOT 1.29.000. Needless to say, my phone is not rooted.
The phone is on a boot loop ever since I last took off the battery and placed it back. I sometimes get a message that my Android system is getting upgraded, terminating with an error "System UI has stopped working" before the phone restarts itself again.
I don't know if this is a hardware issue or software.
How do I get my phone to a normal state? I don't mind rooting the phone if I need to for the purpose of installing default/custom ROM. But I don't know if this would be possible because I only have access to boot screen at present.
Please suggest me suitable solutions. Thank you

Thanks rzr86
I looked into the thread you suggested. For my region and CID, I was not able to get the RUU from the thread. What I could get was this - an OTA zip file that matches my software version exactly (3.33.720.106) from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1764025
How do I proceed further with this zip file, since I don't have an executable RUU file?
I am hoping you can be of help -)
(The zip file contains -- META-INF, patch, system, firmware.zip, fotaBoot, version.txt)

Yes u can s off from bootloader
Use KGS utility or ganeshp one click root. ,s off method Check general section in sensation forum
Connect mobile to pc on bootloader screen( mobile should say fastboot USB )
And follow instruction carefully

When I try and do SOFF using KGS utility, it restarts my phone because my phone is not HTC dev unlocked. (My phone's motherboard was replaced some time ago, and so I cannot unlock my phone.)
ganeshp's one click root requires SOFF. I can't SOFF using his technique because temp_root.bat doesn't work in bootloader screen.

@ganeshp's one click root doesn't require htc dev unlock (meaning no prequisite permanent root; the guide has steps for temproot).
You just need one boot.
Do this: get the boot.img of your current (stock rom) and type fastboot boot boot.img.

My phone, HTC Sensation XE, is S-ON, on default ROM, and has HBOOT 1.29.000. Needless to say, my phone is not rooted.
The phone is on a boot loop ever since I last took off the battery and placed it back. I sometimes get a message that my Android system is getting upgraded, terminating with an error "System UI has stopped working" before the phone restarts itself again.
I don't know if this is a hardware issue or software.
How do I get my phone to a normal state? I don't mind rooting the phone if I need to for the purpose of installing default/custom ROM. But I don't know if this would be possible because I only have access to boot screen at present.
Please suggest me suitable solutions. Thank you

I know its a long shot, but you should try doing a factory-reset from the bootloader, just in case it works.
Otherwise run an RUU from the bootloader.
firstly Itsakash he can't S-OFF because the device must be booted to the OS
secondly Far_SighT the command is fastboot flash boot boot.img
thirdly as raz0rf1sh suggested factory reset is a good idea and
fourthly jiteshgawali can you post your bootloader details?
It really is great to see your input guys.
@Far_SighT: I have tried doing the temp_root method, but it doesn't work for me. I could successfully run temp_root.bat just once (luckily, even in boot loop), but next when I tried doing the Juopunutbear SOFF it missed detecting my phone (again, because of the bootloop)
I don''t know where I can get a boot.img file from; for what it's worth, I could only get an OTA zip file for my region/CID from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1764025
@raz0rf1sh: I have done factory reset several times from bootloader, doesn't help friend. I don't have an RUU for my region/CID, all I have is an OTA zip file for my phone from the link I have specified right above this. Can't seem to get an RUU for firmware base 3.33, and CID HTC__038.

For stock rom go http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1923629.
Get the rom and extract boot.img.
Then use the earlier command I posted.
Yes I haven't seen Indian version ruu until now ..so ruu is out of question AFAIK
Now the factory reset over boot loader should help if you have software problems but as per your replies it didn't work it seems
Tried HTC Dev unlock ? Even if the motherboard is replaced its worth a try
If htcdev unlock failed
Then try to go to recovery first ..from boot loader and if you went to recovery properly let me know
The other solution I propose is try to do change the cid ..even on locked bootloader sometimes it works
Try these commands one by one
fastboot oem writecid HTC__001
Then
fastboot reboot-bootloader
Then check cid using this command
fastboot getvar cid
If cid changed that's a good sign

I said fastboot boot boot.im instead of fastboot flash boot booti.img as the previous one boots the rom with with the new image but doesn't attempt to write that to the boot partition. Hence it might get him a much needed boot to s-off.

Thanks for responding Ganesh. HTC Dev Unlock never worked for me post change of motherboard, but thanks for the suggestion.
I am able to browse the recovery option from bootloader properly.
And it gives me a little satisfaction to let you know that I was able to change the CID to HTC__001 following your steps. Can you suggest what I should be doing next?

Hello Guys,
I am trying to update my RUU, but always get the same error while running (Image Error:159). My Phone is T-Mobile Germany, but i have changed the CID to HTC__001 in order to install the HTC Europe RUU. Also tried the T-Mobile Germany RUU with the T-MOB101 cid, but i still get the same Error. My Hboot is 1.09 and my Rom is CM10, but it won't boot for now.
Really need my phone, so it would be awesome, if someone help me.

No T-Mob101 is the CID for T-Mobile Germany and T-Mob010 for T-Mobile US. I'm not leaving it to 11111111, because i have to change it matching the RUU i want to update.

If you go to 11111111, then you can install any RUU.
The error you are getting indicates the RUU you want to install does not match your CID.
So 11111111 will let you install the RUU you want. Then switch your CID back to whatever.

Yeah, you can flash whatever radio, ROM, etc after the fact.
This is just to get your phone booting again.
Don't forget to lock your boot loader before running the RUU.
