[Q] HTC Sensation 4G stuck. Won't boot. Bricked?

Hello,
I am having some trouble with my T-mobile Sensation 4G. I was trying to install a Rom and seemed to have failed. At this point it will not boot past the first white screen with the green HTC logo.
I can get it into fastboot and Clorkwork mod recovery. However, I am not really sure what to do.
I have tried superwipe and it fails. Bootloader screen is as follows:
-Revolutionary
Pyramid PVT SHIP S-OFF RL
HBOOT- 1.27.1100
RADIO- 11.22.3504.07_M
OPENADSP-V02.6.0.2226.00.0131
EMMC-BOOT

If I need to provide more information just let me know. Any help to get it back up and running would be great. I really appreciate your time and help.
Thank you in advance.

Most likely the rom will not boot on your current firmware. What rom is installed?
Option 1 is to restore a backup since you can access recovery.
Option 2 is to put the correct firmware on your SD using a PC, reinsert and let your phone update.

I don't think any rom is installed. It never got that far.
I first tried to update using this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1542192
However the update failed. After that the phone was just going into a reboot loop when I tried to start it up. I then tried to flash a new rom in the hopes it would fix whatever problem the first failure caused. I was following this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1098849
I was able to update the firmware from the linked page on that guide:
Firmware from 3.32.401.x & 3.32.401.10x RUU
I then tried to flash the Android Revolution HD 6.5.2 rom. It failed and when i tried to reboot it just hangs as described above. I tried to use superwipe and it also fails. I am sure at this point it is obvious I am lost.
Option 1 is not an option as I don't have a backup.
Option 2 may be an option, but I apparently don't know what the correct firmware is.....
Thanks again for the help.
I went back into fastboot and then recovery and tried to use superwipe, but that failed.
Option 1 is a no go because I do not have a backup.

Use this firmware instead.. it's worked well for me no matter which ICS rom I've installed..
Firmware from 3.24.401.1 & 3.25.401.101 RUU from http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1412618
Don't get it confused with the one you've already tried. Then after you flash that version of the firmware, remove it from sdcard and flash a rom. It's worked for me as it should for you as well.. Hope this helped.. I'm also assuming that you've Super CID your device....
if this helped, slap the thanks button... thanks

So still on stock rom, ie Gingerbread, since 2x flashes have failed?
If so, 3.12 is the correct firmware to get it to boot.

I was not able to boot normally after installing this firmware, but it did allow me to complete the superwipe. That was failing beforehand. Once I was able to wipe the phone I was then able to install a rom. The phone is back up and running now. Thanks again for the help. I appreciate you guys taking the time.

[Q] Bootloop Sensation XE

Hello!
My HTC Sensation XE have gone in a bootloop after i rooted it. I've tried several ROMs, and I can't figure how to make the loop stop.
I'm able to go in hboot, and 4EXT recovery.
My hboot looks like this;

Any idea how to make the loop stop?
I want to use the HyperSensation rom, if u need to know that to help me!
Thx for answers!

Did you wipe before installing the rom? If not this is what is causing your issue! In recovery you need to do the wipe.
Hope this helps! The thank button is there for a reason!

Did you try putting a new rom on your sd card? I mean using a micro sd to sd? Then plug it in your computer if it has it?

If you mean putting a ROM on the SD card, and flash it via 4ext, then yes. Thats the only way ive tried to flash roms. Might that be the reason for the loop?

Radio?
Shoudln't the hboot say something about radio?
mine doesn't, but it I remember that it did the first time i went in Hboot.
If that's the problem, how can i fix it?

What custom recovery are you using?

4EXT

my phone is locked to "Telenor"(I live in Norway). Telenor is a phone company.
May that be my problem? and how can i remove the sim lock?

First thing first do the whole first Step of this guide to S-OFF your Sensation. Do it very carefully and follow all steps!. Don't get bored to read.
Then follow this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=21711154#post21711154
VERY VERY VERY CAREFULLY Find your CID and MID as the thread says (I recommend using the method 1. fastboot getvar cid
2. fastboot getvar mid). Then download the correct firmware from the same thread corresponding to your CID. The correct version is 3.32 if you want to flash ICS roms. Just find the correct one to download.
Then follow this http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=966814&stc=1&d=1332793798
to install a custom recovery. There is a file called "Recovery flash guide - READ ME.txt". Do as it says EXACTLY .
Then just download whatever rom you want, place it on your sd and flash it using the Install zip from sd-card option located in the recovery (access it by pressing volume up+power when the phone is turned off)
This is a guide for a specific ROM (Android Revolution HD) but the procedure is similar for any ROM. just flash different zip

[Q] Won't flash ROMs after S-Off achieved

After following the process to obtain S-Off I am no longer able to flash any other ROM other than the one I started with. (Viper 3.10)
I have tried installing CM 10 and 10.1, even flashing their boot.img files like I would before.
I can't get anything to boot. I can get into HBOOT, Recovery, and Viper, so that all works, but nothing else.
That's all the info I know. If anyone can help I will click your "Thanks" button several times.
Thanks in advanced,
- Nate

which recovery do you use, I recommend the last TWRP now in v2.4.2.0

You've probably got some of the software mixed up. S-off removes all restrictions on flashing, so it's just a matter of getting things sorted out.
What do you see in bootloader?

Sorry about leaving for so long, work all night, sleep all day.
The bootloader is as follows:
***Tampered***
***Unlocked***
Evita PVT Ship S-Off RL
CID-11111111

eMMC-boot
Jun 11 2012,14:36:28
The TWRP version is: v2.3.1.0 Maybe all I need is an update?
update: Updated TWRP to 2.4.2, it flashed CM 10.1 and now it's hung at the spinning bootsplash. So, progress?
update update: I kept flashing the CM 10.1 ROM and it booted after about 5 flashes. I don't know. But it works now. thanks guys!

Just reflash your unlock code from HTC dev install twrp then flash away
Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk 2

Don't panic, this should be an easy fix.
Once you relock, you have to run a ruu or unlock again. But you're trying to run a ruu for older firmware, which is why it's failing.
Just push the unlock token again, and you should be able to boot to recovery. If not, push the recovery image again. I don't recommend CWM, even though it's been ported to this phone. That version of TWRP should work, just confirm that you've got the Evita version.

OK i have unlocked again and re pushed recovery TWRP 2.4.1.0
But I still cant boot into the recovery option..
PLease tell me what im doing wrong..

I believe through adv but is way simpler to do it through recovery. Try a earlier version of twrp
Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk 2

did you verify you are unlocked now, or did you just assume since you pushed the token again?

Also, are you certain you're using the right version of TWRP and not one for another phone (like the endeavour/Tegra One X)?

I pushed the same token and rebooted the device at the top its now says unlocked

Here is my accomplishments so far:
- Unlocked with HTC Dec, therefore it says unlocked as mentioned above
- Installed TWRP v2.5.0.0, and can successfully boot into recovery
Yet to be done and do not know how to:
- S-OFF
- Super CID
- Permanent Root
Problems installing ROM:
- unable to install. Various errors with different roms, such as:
1) unable to mount sdcard
2) assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device")
3) error executing updater binary in zip
Please advise. Thank you for your time.
Note: the device is locked to Rogers. It is currently in bootloop. I do not know what I did but before installing TWRP, the device went in bootloop after unlocking bootloader and it would simply not start. Although, as mentioned I can successfully boot into the recovery and mount the sdcard from there to transfer files to the phone.

Why are you relocked?
Unlock again and update TWRP, then try to flash a ROM again. What ROM(s) are you trying to flash.
Be aware that since you are s-off, you will need to extract boot.img from the ROM you are trying to flash, and manually flash with fastboot. You will need to do this every time you flash a ROM, unless you get s-off.
Also, I don't know why you posted to this old thread. Aside from the OP also having the Rogers version, it has nothing to do with your issue. Should have started your own thread.

I'll just clarify that when Redpoint said you need to update TWRP you should update it to TWRP 2.6, your current version (2.5) is very buggy. Also, he means since you are s-on you need to flash the boot.img, when you get s-off this will no longer be required.

Hello everyone!
I've a problem.
I have an HTC One S(S3) with Unlocked Bootloader and S-ON.

But I can go in bootloader.

Someone correct me, but doesn't "INFOversion-bootloader: 2.15.0000" mean that the phone is an S4 model?

Hm, info product vle also sounds like s4.
But back on topic: What did you (try) to do?
Edit: Before you run the ruu?
Basic path I would follow:
* flash stock kernel
* flash stock recovery
If that doesn't work:
* flash custom recovery
* MAKE BACKUP
* SAVE BACKUP
* install stock or custom ROM
* restore data from backup

Did you locked before you runned RUU?
If not, try.
Look on your package of your phone on the backside, which model you have.
Z560e -> S3
Z520e -> S4
Did you updated to Jelly bean?
If yes, any RUU for S3 won't work!
Try to flash a custom recovery (please take twrp 2.3.x.x). It must work.
And then you must flash a custom Rom. Take Liberty Rom or Paranoid Android. And after you flashed the custom recovery, flash the boot.img, cause you are S-ON. If you can start your phone now, make a Backup in TWRP and save the backup on your PC.
If all of these Steps were succesfull, send me a PN. I will send you a Tutorial, made by @khan.orak, how to flash stock rom via OTA!
But first of all, try my beginning steps.
Good Luck, and pay attention: send us all of the error Logs. We need them!

Hey, i have exactly the same problem.
I got a S4 version, S-ON and stuck in the bootloader.
I have a TWRP 2.3.3 recovery and i can mount on my sdcard so i try to copy the last Liberty ROM just like you said.
Copy and installation were ok but when my phone is rebooting nothing appears except the HTC logo.
What am i doing wrong ?

Hey, i have exactly the same problem.
I got a S4 version, S-ON and stuck in the bootloader.
I have a TWRP 2.3.3 recovery and i can mount on my sdcard so i try to copy the last Liberty ROM just like you said.
Copy and installation were ok but when my phone is rebooting nothing appears except the HTC logo.
What am i doing wrong ?

Find a ROM for S4.
You're in the way to brick your Phone! DONT FLASH S3 roms!
Flash a S4 rom and flash boot.img/kernel of that rom. It'll flash fine and reboot fine then.

Exactly. It's an S4
I want kill the old owner. he said me that it's an S3 model. Why I had to doubt?
I'm sure it's an S4 model because the RUU S4 run good and complete the installation(same for a twrp for S4).
Now there is another problem. After I installed the RUU, it reboot continually.
Whats' worng? it maybe an Hardware problem? :crying:
In TWRP it doens't reboot but when "htcOne" logo appear, after a second it reboot again and again and again.
Thank you for the answer.
Basic path I would follow:
* flash stock kernel
* flash stock recovery

Where I could find these stock kernel and recovery?
Thank you

Thats a bootloop
I dont know how it is on a s4 model after RUU, but try to flash the kernel. Open the RUU setup via winrar or other programs.
I dont know exactly which zip you must open in the ruu but try to find the boot.img in the rom.zip/firmware.zip ...
I hope i can help you!

Hi everyone,
I have a similar problem. I am also in a bootloop. And due to Hboot 2.15 and the lack of a RUU supporting my phone (T-mobile branding CID T-MOB101) I can't get back to stock. Unfortunately I can't get into any recovery, neither twrp, cmw nor stock recovery. I've flashed several twrp versions a couple of times but always when I select recovery in the bootloader the phone returned into the bootloop. After flashing the custom recovery I also used "fastboot erase cache" and flashed the boot.img.
Does anyone know how I can get TWRP or CWM up and running in order to be able to flash a custom rom?
Thank you in advance.

I have the same model and I had no trouble flashing CWM or TWRP. Currently I have the latest CWM.
On www.cyanogenmod.org there is a good tutorial on how to install CM on the Ville with TWRP.
Can you factory reset? Or erase storage?

Do you already have the drivers?
-try to install Twrp 2.3.x.x
-than you can read the tutorial from @khan.orak "how to get back to Stock with Ota!
You must have a choice to install twrp. It MUST work. You can only go to recovery if you UNLOCKED your bootloader. Unlock it, if it is locked (htcdev) :*

But I've installed the RUU with ".exe". How can I have the right kernel("boot.img")?

Open with... Winrar?
Right click on ruu.exe
Select "open with..."
Select winRAR
But you must have installed winrar first. ;*
