I haven't tried EXT4 as CWM does everything I need.

Nandroid backup is performed through your chosen Recovery, e.g. CWM. Note it's a point in time backup of the phone's partitions. So typically an ALL or NOTHING backup / recovery.

So by using recovery I'll keep my app data/saves etc?​

NO, Nandroid does whole phone backups and recovery. For example if you have a daily ROM and want to try another, Nandroid Backup, try the new one decide you don't like it, just recover from the Nandroid Backup. Back where on your daily, as is.

Titanium can perform individual app and data backup/recovery. I personally don't use it but many people do successfully. The main issue I believe is people recovering system apps from a previous ROM that then causes issues. Others can comment more.

As you're rooted, get it from the Market (Free) and try.

OK what does the the Bootloader say when you boot up? The white screen that has HBOOT and more info.

What exactly are you trying to do ? Install ROM, Recovery, Firmware, SU, something else..
[HTC Sensation] The-Last-Hylian:
Thanks, I went to the Android market site on my pc and installed Titanium Backup free from there, I didn't bother using it before I flashed the ROM onto my phone, I've reinstalled all of my Apps to the phone memory now and it all seems fairly ok.

nice ROM.

So will Beats be activated from the Stock HTC music player automatically?

I use Winamp alot will it not pick that up?
[HTC Sensation] gol_n_dal:
Glad you're fine now.

Can't comment about Beats or Winamp, don't use them. My Sensation with Shure E420 are nice as they are.

I was trying this method but failed several times. Then I tried this:

1) goto download[dot]clockworkmod[dot]com[slash]recoveries[slash]

2) find and download the latest img for your phone model (pyramid for sensation)

3) desktop and create a new txt file named "android-info.txt"

4) copy and paste into the file this

modelid: PG5813000
cidnum: HTC__001
cidnum: HTC__E11
cidnum: HTC__032

cidnum: HTC__A07
cidnum: HTC__016
cidnum: HTC__J15
mainver: 1.24.401.1
hbootpreupdate:0
DelCache:1

5)save the txt file

6)zip up both the txt file and img file into a file named "PG58IMG.zip"

7)go to HBOOT screen and the thing will load

8)VOL UP to update

Gurus please help check whether I am doing it right.

Trying to get CWM now

Hey, I've read through this and tried the PG58IMG.zip of the 5.8 CWM and that didn't work for me either, does anyone just have a download link for the original file?
[HTC Sensation] nzxtneo:
Here guys,

This is most recent release, v5.8.0.9.

Looks the zip files for the Sensation on the CWM website are not compiled correctly for some reason...

I fixed the problem and it is working for me. Just move to your SD card and flash in Hboot.
[HTC Sensation] gol_n_dal:
Google ClockworkMod.

It takes you to: http://clockworkmod.com/

Look under RomManager there are downloads for CWM and CWM touch.

EDIT: They're IMG files and need fastboot flashing, or add them to a PG58IMG.zip file you have.

Help! Constant rebooting cycle after attempting to install recovery

Can anybody help me? Wanting to root my vanilla Vodafone UK Sensation purely in order to be able to install Droidwall. No immediate desire to flash a custom ROM or anything like that (although upgrading to ICS is tempting) - in fact I was rather hoping (please don't roll about laughing anybody!) that I could achieve root without losing any of my existing settings as I like my phone as it is (I want Droidwall as I need to travel on business and need to pick up my email, but don't want my roaming bill to be sky high).

Anyway, I started following the instructions on the following link: http://xdaforums.com/printthread.php?t=1192300 and managed step 1 successfully. My phone now says :

-Revolutionary-

PYRAMID PVT SHIP S-OFF

HBOOT-1.27.1100

RADIO-10.14.9035.01_M

eMMC-boot

Jan 13 2012, 17:33:34

However, when I follow Step 2 my phone says (in addition to all the above):

HBOOT

CID incorrect

Update Fail!

Press <POWER> to reboot.

When I then press <power> my phone goes into an endless cycle of booting into the green HTC splash screen then going to the HTC Quietly Brilliant splash screen and then apparently rebooting again.

Any suggestions? I travelling first thing in the morning and really need my phone up and running again (even if not rooted).

I have tried various PG58IMG files without success. Please can anyone give me clear, easy to follow instructions to get me out of this mess? (explain it to me like I'm a five year old and I should be OK).

Cheers.
[HTC Sensation] badism16:

[HTC Sensation] DoHBoi1o1:
I am having the same issue, whats funny is I had already had ICS on my sensation before I played around and bricked it.

TMO sent me another phone and when I went to S-OFF it and start the process, I Too had the same issue you are having.

I dont remember it being this hard the first time, and after *carefully* reading numerous pages , Im still stuck here with this PG58IMG file.

Mines also says

Press Power Reboot

I really don't have any idea, but just after flashing your file, the Settings (Settings.apk) & Notification Bar (SystemUI.apk) keeps on force closing...There is no sound for ringer/speaker, mic...eventhough I am able to dial & connet a call...No sound for media as the speaker doesn't work...

Any idea Partner ? Now I am all messed up...Dont know what to do ?....Does a master reset will solve the problem ? Or do I have to flash my Stock Rom again (By SuperCID/RUU.exe Method)....PLEASE HELP ME OUT !!!
[HTC Sensation] ganeshp:
somehow on unlocked bootloaders by HTCdev...the PG58IMG files are not being recognized properly...

so for flashing recovery i recommend you to use fastboot command

you need to get recovery.img for the corresponding recovery..for fastboot method to work

i got 4EXT touch recovery's (better than CWM imo) recovery.img

you can download it from here

after you got the recovery.img...keep it in your adb folder...

and go to fastboot on your device (mobile should read fastboot usb...once you've connected it to pc)

type this

"fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" (without quotes)

then you're recovery is done

try the above method (it changes the recovery to 4EXT ) and check whether it solves the problem

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jneal9:
Yeah I believe that is to be expected. Avatar came preloaded on the external sd card that came with the phone. The apk in the firmware is just a link to it. So if you no longer have that sd card, or deleted the Avatar video file, it won't work. And I believe it's pretty much the same deal with the Sims 3. Every time I've gone back to stock neither worked since I use a different 8gb sd card. And I didn't keep either of the files.

I've got the hang of using handbrake.

I've converted part of my copy of a certain 3D Blu-Ray from the 10GB MKV that I use on my 3D monitor to an 84MB MP4 sample using handbrake.

An elegant solution 4 "your device is not compatible with this item"

I don't want to change my lcd density.

I use s.u.r.f.a.c.e. rom with 182 dpi and I'm quite happy this way.

I don't want to change to 240 once in few days or few times a day.

So what I did was listen to this guy here:

http://www.addictivetips.com/mobile/how-to-downgrade-android-market-3-0-26-to-old-market-tip/

The solution:

I downgraded from 3.3.11 (I had "your device is not compatible with this item" too many times there - IMDB for example) to 3.0.27, and I tried "IMDB" - it was available!

Now I'm busting my head to remember what were the other apps I had to search on internet for APKs (freeapps, but with mentioned problem - so no downloadable), and check them out...

Lets see: QuickPic -working too!

------------------------

Edit:

#$%/"##$!!*!!!

The Market is worse then Freddy Krueger!!

It keeps comming back, and comming back...

The Market update has to be blocked, cose in few minutes I was unwilingly updated back to 3.3.11 and of course was honored with "your device is not compatible with this item" once again...

So - keep Market from update, and you'll be fine.

for examle like this.

OK - I will snoop a bit more around, but this could be the painless way (I don't mind using an older version of Market. On contrary - under these circumstances... ;) )

p.s. - Hope someone'll find this useful - I used this forum so much, it is nice to contribute... :)
