Help , htc sensation not flashing roms - HTC Sensation

So I was installing a rom with aroma installer and I choose clean install, so it was installing and it stopped for more than five min. So I decided to take out the battery and try flashing again but, now if I flash it cannot mount the system or anything only the SD card.Please how can I fix this.

what recovery do you have?
are you on S-ON or S-OFF?
which rom did you try to flash?
edit: if the mods can move this thread it is in the wrong section

As far as I know, that's a superbrick on the MMC for /data. If you want to get around the newfound hardware damage, you'll need the SD-EXT boot mod that's modified for a damaged internal partition.

probably is what Harakhti said
if you used any wipe option from twrp then you have the false twrp

Thanks the boot mod finally got me to flash a Rom but now when the phone is booting it restarts

[Q] Need some Recovery Info

I apologize for the question. Please point me forward if needed. But Im confused slightly now on all the options with recovery. I already updated using NVflash, so just wanted some more understanding with the new options, don't need help with installing Recovery.

thanks to TGA_Gunnman for the one click, I like to manually install, but the options on his little program make life pretty easy. Also thanks to Krylon for his Recovery work.
1. Any discerning differences between Kryon's version and Koush's version?
2. With internal and external support, any thoughts on if its better to just flash internal, since that memory is less volatile than an SD card? Otherwise you potentially more room on an SD for nandroids.
3. Other than in being able to flash from inside the Rom, what need is the Rom Manager version of the recovery?
4. If NVflash to internal, and install CWR internal, does CWR overwrite? Or just boot to that when using Rom Manager and regular when using reboot with buttons to enter?
Thanks in advance.
The new CWM 5.0.1.6 supports both internal and external memory. That's your best choice at this time.

Can't install ANY rom.

I am on 4.0.0.9 and every single rom I try to install, I get stuck on this screen:

}
I have tried clearing the cache and wiping the data before installing the roms, I have tried 3 so far and have tried redownloading all of them.
I have tried reflashing CWM, I have exhausted all means that I know of. I was running tasteless venom just fine until I decided to try flashing a newer rom, and it has been hanging here for hours without any signs of booting.
I'm stumped, any ideas?
I get this too occasionally, all my nandroids do this. Let me tell you how fun it is to have to re-set up the entire phone after each different ROM I flash.

Did you clear the system partition in mounts and storage before flashing a new rom?
Did you flash the correct kernel? Did you flash any kernel at all?
Well this is an easy fix. Get the official cwm. I'm surprised no1 told you yet. The real cwm is 5.0.2.7 I think. Update with rom manager to the latest recovery
Sent from my ICS Splashed using Tapatalk
i haven't had any problem at all flashing ROMs with that version of CWM. plus, if you can't boot into any ROM you won't be able to use Rom Manager.
i might suggest checking that your system is mounted both before flashing the ROM, and before rebooting. i believe that would be found in 'Mounts and Storage' in recovery, and you would want it to say 'unmount' next to system, meaning that it is mounted. in some cases when you need to do that, you will have the problem you're having if you forget to check. good luck
Learn how to use adb to install the latest official cmw and you will unbrick your phone.

Hi guys, i got almost dead phone in mine hands and I really want to try to give it a new life.

2. theres no recovery on phone, no at all, also all partitions are clean and broken, but i can boot cwm with "fastboot boot" command
3. from cwm i can get to root shell in busybox with "adb shell"
4. fdisk on /deb/block/mmcblk0 fails and nowhting happens
5. in recovery any action with internal memory fails with error that can't mount /deb/block/mmcblk0p** (** are numbers for different partitions)

[Q] Flashing Packages in Recovery

I know how to install a custom Rom but for some reason last night whenever I tried to flash a new rom, I kept getting an error in recovery saying something like this
" E:/ "filename" could not find " or something like that
Then it said Installation aborted.
This happened every time whether it was a rom or a tweak package. Its not my SD card because I tried two different ones. Is it my phone or the clockwork recovery?
Go to www.4ext.net download, install (choose the touch version from within the app) and report.

If you can't then you may need to find a different way to flashing a new recovery to see if that works. The hack kit has the option to only flash a recovery.
You could also flash a ruu as last option.

Wait. Are you s-off or not?

[Q] Wifi Error on ViperXL

I have been running ViperXL for a few weeks now. Really happy with everything, then last night I tried to flash ElemenalX Kernel which resulted in a bootloop. I had made a backup in TWRP before trying to flash and restored from that. Everything came back except the WIFI. It now says Error under wifi in the settings menu. Any help would be appreciated.

from elemental x op
Note about WiFi
If you go back to stock kernel after installing ElementalX-v4.4 or higher, you will need to restore the wifi module to stock. The ElementalX installer renames the original module to prima_wlan.ko.bak. You can restore the stock module by doing the following:
1. go to /system/lib/modules
2. delete prima_wlan.ko
3. rename prima_wlan.ko.bak to prima_wlan.ko
4. reboot
Okay, thanks. Sorry I didn't see that. I installed it from the VenomHUB. Is there a way to do this from the phone? I am at work without a usb cable.

use root explorer or a app like it

Using root explorer, I see the prima_wlan.ko that it says to delete, but don't have a prima_wlan.ko.bak to rename.
only other thing that i can think to do is do a wipe and reinstall the rom
Ok, Will do. Thanks again for the help. I can live without wifi for the day, I'll do a clean install when I get home.
Had the same problem. I ran the elemental installer a second time and it fixed the problem.

OK, all fixed up. Did a full reinstall of ViperXL last night and everything is working as it should. Thanks for the help.
