I can`t remember that you need s-off for TWRP and i dont think so!
Also here no comment @ https://twrp.me/devices/htconess4.html
What a Error you get?

Post exactly the error you get. For flashing TWRP you shouldn't be S-Off
Edit: I've checked the link for the ROM you've said you tried to follow flashing instructions....that is an S4 (ville) ROM and that TWRP is for S4 not for villeC2 as it appears in your bootloader info. DO NOT TRY TO FLASH ANYTHING from S4 section, you must flash a ROM and TWRP made for villeC2 (S3) cause they're not compatible.

[Q] Stuck in boot loop help please

Hi, I was trying to flash an ICS rom (Leedriod 7.3) I already was using leedriod 3.1 previously which I still have a backup of. I think I may have flashed the wrong ICS boot loader.. so at the moment the boot loader says this

After I first flashed it was saying
cid incorrect!
Update fail!
press (power) to reboot
So I'd like to get back to my original rom, I've tried using my clockworkmod backup.. but it doesnt seem to change the boot loader. I been reading other threads. So I've tried to get supercid using adb.. so I could flash a different boot loader, but it doesnt seem to work for me just hangs on < waiting for device > Same thing when I try to find out what my cid actually is.
Any help will be appreciated thank you.

Hi,
restoring a nandroid backup will not change the bootloader.
It sounds like you have not installed the required drivers fire adb to work properly.
Look at the sticky section at the beginning of this forum.
There is an adb thread...

[Q] HTC Sensation won't boot past HTC screen

New to development... (hence the problems!!)
Followed online guide through HTCDEV to unlock HTC Sensation. Rooted phone and was trying out some custom ROMs which I managed with no major problems albeit I could not get the WiFi to connect (kept giving error message) i assumed this was a Custom ROM issue so changed to another.
I had made Nandroid back-up, which worked fine on the first restore attempt. unfortunately, now it just says MD5 mismatch so I cannot restore to my original working ROM.
Problem now is that I cannot get any of the ROMs I flash to boot past the White HTC screen. Advice on where to go from here much appreciated?

Hi,
Did you change the name of the nandroid backup?
If so,you must leave NO GAPS in it...
Check THIS THREAD
Thanks for the reply Malybru...
The thread lloks great and I'm sure now that as my phone has been unlocked through HTCDev and remains S-On that the Boot.img is the issue. Only snag is that now that I cannot get the phone to boot, I cannot connect it through USB to the computer to Flash the boot.image across. As I previously mentioned, I cannot get the Nandroid backup option working (I didn't change the name?) so I cannot seem to get out of my 'bricked' state!!
Any help greatly appreciated...

Hi,
Try to install 4EXT recovery from HERE
And when you have installed 4ext then remember to go to "tools" and enable "smartflash" every time you flash a rom. As it says in the guide.. Good luck..
NO joy i'm afraid - I cannot seem to get 4Ext onto the phone. It will happily open HBoot and CWM but no amount of trying allows me to get further

In your OP you get wifi errors because of kernel not being flashed as you are S-ON (HTCDEV unlock only unlocks certain partitions) and your booting issues seems to be coming from a boot.img/kernel related problem so my advice would be to S-OFF and use 4EXT recovery to flash another ROM and that should sort it (make sure to double check MD5 CheckSum of whatever ROM you are flashing!)

Bootloader still reads:

If I try to switch on phone it simply will not go past the initial white screen with the green HTC logo.
When I open in boatloader it goes through a cycle of checking SD card, loading image etc - at one point it states no image or wrong image and the parsing PG58IMG
Can I still S-Off and transfer 4Ext to the phone with this functionality and if so, could you please explain how. Obviously I can flash Zips from SD Card?

Hi,
Look HERE
Firstly, thankyou for your advice. However, unless I'm missing something (highly likely!!) it appears that to S-Off I will need to connect the phone through USB which does not recognise it?
Also the HTC Sensation opens for HBoot version does not include 1.27.0000 on the beta key generator?

as long as you are SON ..you cant flash firmware
now for ppl with htc-dev unlocked bootloader and S-ON ..the traditional way of flashing wont work
you need to do one extra step (if the step missed ..either the rom doesnt boot up or you will have wifi error)
there is a perfectly awesome guide on how to properly flash custom roms in your case
which malybru mentioned it in the second post itself of the same thread
which you are keep on ignoring and asking for more answers (which has been answered ages ago )
now read the thread ..understand it and flash the rom accordingly
I'm getting there slowly after the helpful nudge!! 4Ext flashed and smartflash enabled - trying to flash android rev HD as suggested but still not having much luck (still won't boot past HTC screen)
i did format the SD card previously following a previous troubleshooting thread (bad idea no doubt!!)
Could it be to do with the PG58img.zip- when bootloader opens it still says wrong image?

Hi,
Have you still got PG58IMG.zip on your sd card?
If so, delete it.
Sorted!!!
Many Thanks to all who have posted on this thread. Successfully solved the issues and thankfully phone works as a phone on And Rev HD. I just need to rectify the WIFI error when I get a chance. Any hints to an easy guide would be much appreciated. Also, any advice on the best custom ROM to use; I appreciate theres an element of personal choice but i'm after one which will allow me to maxmise the potential of the device in terms of speed without ruining battery life too much?
Thanks

Hi,
If you manage to sort a problem,could you please share what you did,so that others may benefit.
Solution
WiFi now working. I followed the guide suggested for me by Malybru at the start of this thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1631861 I flashed 4Ext recovery instead of CWM. Then Android Rev Supawipe followed by Android Rev HD ROM. All exactly as advertised on the guide by using ADB. Initially WiFi wasn't working but I then flashed CM9 along with separately flashing the boot.img, again using ADB. All works perfectly now. Just follow the guide exactly and you should be fine. The main problem I had was assuming that because the phone did nothing when you connected the USB cable that connecting ADB wouldn't work. Don't think - just follow the guide!! Many Thanks All

Seemed to have killed phone

I have spent a week driving myself insane with this phone and now it won't boot and I cannot seem to get is back to factory settings.
I tried to follow guides here for rooting but I could not get them to work.
In the end I used this guide (including the unlock bootloader via htcdev) and it got my phone rooted.
I then thought it would be a great idea to install the viper S rom... It was not. Now the phone will not go past the ht sensation logo on boot and I cannot get the firmware here (phone parses the file and then does nothing on the bootloader), the odexed stock image here or the any other image like this to install.
Please can someone tell me how to get this phone working again?
This whole thing has really stressed me out, I would be really grateful if someone could just give me some simple instructions. An image to flash via clockwork would be great. I have tried for days to do it my self but am starting to go crazy.

the problem is when you are flashing a rom when you are S-ON it has not the ability to flash the boot partition by itself
you have to flash the boot.img of the rom manually or
flash 4ext recovery ,enable smartflash from it and then flash the rom.see here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1631861
edit:in order to upgrade your firmware you have to be S-OFF

[Q] Stuck On Recovery And Phone Wont Boot

I had an unlocked bootloader and the following stats :
EVITA PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT- 1.14.0002
RADIO- 0.19as.32.09.11_2
OpenDSP- v29.1.0.45.0622

I tried to flash the clockwork recovery.. and the phone would not boot at all.. it is stuck at the original stock recovery screen. I have tried a couple of different methods. But i am not sure why none of them are working out. And another way i though of updating it was to flash all rom files using fastboot. but i cant seem to find a system image.
What should i do ?
Thank You
Is your bootloader still unlocked

im not sure why u choose CWM over TWRP. since CWM has issue with Evita. If you want to ask some people in xda-forum, they might able to solve your problem step by step and how to fix your phone.
my suggestion is to flash TWRP from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1677447
im a noob, so i cant help you futher than that. hope that helps.
try running this command in fastboot "fastboot erase cache" also you can only flash recovery if you have unlocked bootloader. rohan32 cwm is pretty good but you can mount usb though so i would stick with twrp for now.

HBOOT-3.01.0000
RADIO-16.11.20.24_M

My phone was in S-off from 11/22. I've tried many options but none of them worked out.
I can't boot into my phone directly. I can only boot to recovery.
Currently there is no super user found.
Current CID of my phone is HTC__038
I've tried to S off my phone but it resulted in some error.
I have loaded a custom rom into my sd card but while installing the rom, i'm getting an error of "unable to set_perm".
Kindly Help me.
Thanks in advance.

Use adb and relock your device after install the factory RUU(now your phone should light with the stock rom), after that follow a guide to unlock your device install recovery, rom ecc ecc if you want a custom rom, if you have any problems ask.
