WiFi connection definitely seems improved. I went to the farthest corner of the house where the signal used to drop to the last . but now I get one bar solid, sometimes two, and it says it is at 54mbs. Will check on the battery tomorrow, just hit 100% and calibrated. :D I can't say I ever really noticed the other listed issues.

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

"or flash something else over it" - Could you be a little more specific please? I understand the RUU, but what other things should I watch out for? Thanks!
[HTC Sensation] Evo_Pimpin:
Ok I did a fresh RUU, re-s-off and root. Then tried this file and I still get the fail-PU.
[HTC Sensation] Alganon:
Just a little bit of sharing my experience so far:

I'm currently on my 2nd battery cycle, and even the first cycle, battery was really better, wifi is little better, and the best: I did not have any case of freeze or screen not waking up when being called by now (and thats something a lot of people are having trouble with in bricked kernel thread).

SO THX FOR SHARING THIS, IT REALLY HELPED ME A LOT!
[HTC Sensation] Shidapu:
Thanks for sharing, it works a blast, i can see difference.. Works on Sensation (EU Model), But i'd like to request a similiar thing from OP, for Desire HD, Firmware only fixes without Hboot, Boot.img and Recovery as a similiar zip :)

I would greatly appreciate that, as a friend is having very strange issues with his SD card reader, he has fails lots of times and could be firmware issues or something similiar..
[HTC Sensation] arachnid1970:

4 months ago I drop my S4G and shattered the touchscreen ,I then buy a new screen and installed it myself ,after that the new touchscreen really lagging and unresponsive so I give up trying to fix it and let it collect dust in my garage.One time I got soo pissed I was gonna threw it in the lake after so much attemp trying to fix this crap.So yesterday I happen to stop by this forum and see this thread and OH MAN..after I load a new ROM and installed this OTA my touchscreen work perfectly:eek: ,my S4G got a new life:D. Thanks man this **** really works .
[HTC Sensation] jmcdonald58:
The easy why of doing this is just to flash the PG58IMG contained in this thread

I went this route which takes more time and some patience

Flashed 1.45 ruu

after boot check for updates and installed 1.50 update

I reran revolutionary (this is a must or it will show locked at top of bl will still be s-off but will lose fastboot as mention earlier)

Install recovery (used PG58IMG backup)

Backed up stock 1.50 Rom from RUU

Re rooted

Restored backup and my nand backups restored sucessfully

Bootloader now reads Revolutionary s-off 1.17.1111

Only hitch a had was in revolutionary when I tried to use iemi as serial #,which starts with ht and has 12 digits
[HTC Sensation] sjappie:
How to uninstall this one? After installing my camera keeps crashing and rebooting the phone...

Edit; did a 4ext restore,now just fine...
[HTC Sensation] Phateless:
Stay s-off and ruu to stock, then update through menu, settings, about phone.

After it's done just reflash recovery through hboot and reflash your rom.
[HTC Sensation] mkinney88:
Okay i have having the same problem as eveyone here with the firmware problem with the pu failed, easy fix download the 1.50.531.1 ruu wxx.fileserve.com/file/VuBV5DV/RUU_Pyramid_TMOUS_1.50.531.1_Radio_10.56.9035.00U_ 10.14.9035.01_M_release_223976_signed.exe and re-root the ruu contains everything needed for this. I am also working on a rom that includes this fix it will be my first stock rooted rom, i will be releasing it tonight.
[HTC Sensation] arachnid1970:
So i guess theres no simple way to solve that pu-failure... or an an idea why it works sometimes and other times don't... strange like something on sensation ;)
[HTC Sensation] Hoggles:
It seems "PU Fail" happens when you try to install it after already successfully installing it once. Makes sense.... firmware stays put, as does the radio, after wiping and installing new ROM's etc. It makes sense that the partition update would fail if you've already flashed it successfully once. Android is just telling you...no need to update.

As a test, I simply ran it again.....I was able to get the "pu fail".

I guess some people are getting that even on the first attempt? My first attempt updated without any issue....second try, for ****es and giggles...fail ;)

In any event, THANKS to the OP! Good work!
[HTC Sensation] arachnid1970:
Thanks for that reply, man...do you know a way to confirm that the first flash was succesfull? Better ask before flash the new radio ;)
[HTC Sensation] WarlockW:
Is there a way to un-install this patch ?

Is there a way to un-install this patch ?

Or What would you need to do to un-install this?
[HTC Sensation] Sdobron:
Run a previous ruu
[HTC Sensation] escalator:
http://www.virtuousrom.com/p/sensation.html

At the bottom of this page you´ll find the FW-Bundle from 1.45 ruu.

I flashed this package in fastboot too, ´cause I also ran into randomly reboots with the package in the OP . Older Radio is in the virtuous package also included.
[HTC Sensation] blahbl4hblah:
Let me know how it works. This update is not working for me though battery is great. Also the file is 16mb so it that alright? Just making sure
[HTC Sensation] Hoggles:
My screen did seem a bit more responsive.... I don't think this is the kind of update that you'll necessarily notice too much of a major change. As the norm with any update, official or unofficial, its always a bit of a crapshoot and sometimes is a little subjective. Other than that, the obvious sign that the first flash was good is that the update was a success in the bootloader. No fail msg etc.
[HTC Sensation] akapaul26:
I loaded the file just fine. After a few days now and a couple battery cycles and calibrating the battery, battery seems ok about the same a little worse, wifi is a little faster. I did notice that my signal strength is worse and I have missed a couple calls when I had a signal, phone just didn't ring. I am assuming the upgrade has a different radio and that's where the signal problems are stemming from. I also noticed that although APN's are the same I am only able to sent one mms then I get a fail every time after... What I want to know is anyone else having signal drops or lesser signal sense installing the package?
[HTC Sensation] blahbl4hblah:
I have. But its weird. I might go back to the previous firmware
[HTC Sensation] Phateless:
My phone runs just fine since installing the update. I restored to stock so I could accept the update ota and then did a clean install of cm7.
[HTC Sensation] d3vilskid:
Try running the ruu than reflash your rom
[HTC Sensation] Ultrastigi:
Hey so this might sound ridiculous but I'm having a problem tryign to get the update (1.50.531.1) to push through to my phone. I could use this image you provided to flash to the most recent release? Does this contain all the fixes?
[HTC Sensation] blahbl4hblah:
Can you tell me the steps. I want to try and do it that way. It may be why I'm experiencing lag after sometime. I don't care for splash screen that much so I'm fine without it
[HTC Sensation] FayezZ:
Sdobron: Thanks anyway, but this update does not fix my power button issue.

ROM: ARHD 4.1.8 (with bundled faux123 kernel). I've since updated to 4.1.9, which includes a fix for the issue.
[HTC Sensation] akapaul26:
I reverted back to RUU 1.45, better for me. Thanks to OP for the work tho.
[HTC Sensation] aNYthing24:
I have no power button issues at all after flashing this. Thanks a lot.
[HTC Sensation] neoissuperman:
I would love to report that this update is absolutely amazing! Thank you so much for putting in the effort to do this. I am running ARHD Revolution 3.6.8 and this worked perfectly. Thank you!!!!
[HTC Sensation] neoissuperman:
Please report ROM and Kernal when reporting to help other members. Thank you.
[HTC Sensation] FayezZ:
Updated my original post.
[HTC Sensation] scm_crash:
Ironic. I just decided to flash this because I wanted to test out the better WiFi and ended up screwing up my WiFi all-together. It wouldn't start. Just says "Error".

I'm currently backing up to restore an older back up and I'll see if that fixes it.

EDIT:

Yep, that fixed it. WiFi is not only working, but I have 2 more bars than usual sitting at my laptop.

To the OP: Great job. Thank you for taking the time to post this.
[HTC Sensation] blahbl4hblah:
Just a little update for those who had an issue with failed update

If you flash the stock t-mobile 1.45.x rooted and deodoxed rom then the update won't fail.

I was on CM7 and tried to update with firmware and it didn't work out like it should have and failed on me

Just some help
[LG Optimus Black] iamLance:
Guys, the LGMobile tool just prompted me that there is an update available on my phone. I'm running the stock rom v10d ever since. Haven't rooted mine from the beginning. And look what I have? Is this it? Is this Gingerbread? Have you checked yours?

Damn! So excited! Unfortunately, I couldn't update now. My internet connection is really slow. I'm afraid it would cause problem. Might as well try this tomorrow evening.

Here's a picture of it for proof. Check the date of my computer. I'm telling the truth! ****! Can't wait! :D

For those who have a stable connection now, please do check and update us here. Thanks!

I'm sorry. My bad. I'm not from the USA. I'm from the Philippines. It just showed USA cause that's the default one when you go to your tool. When I changed the country, I have the same notification. Check the picture again below.

I'm so excited! Damn! I don't have a stable internet connection as of the moment. Under maintenance. I'm having disconnections. If only, I could update now and tell you guys what this is. Sigh! Might as well wait for tomorrow, I mean later. Hehe! Yeah! I really hope this is it!

Anyone of you can confirm or any one have the same notification as mine??

[LG Optimus Black] masterthor:
As the guys already stated, this is NOT gingerbread. Europe, as announced, will get Gingerbread first. Europe did not yet get it, so that is just v10e or some other froyo variant. Wait for further news on when it will be updated in Europe and you will be able to install it as well.
[LG Optimus Black] iamLance:
Can't you also read?

I said I'm on v10d! That's the latest firmware in our phone. v10e for Europe, v10d in Asia. How can then it be another variance? Lol! The difference is the letter. And the letter depends on what country you are in. But we all have the same. And it's the latest. If you're not mistaken, then this is probably another upgrade of Froyo before Gingerbread. Or this is really Gingerbread. You wouldn't know. I wouldn't know. Too bad I have an unstable internet connection as of the moment. Luckily, if everything is fixed I can update later. They say that Europe gets Gingerbread first but what are the odds that Asia would receive the update first before Europe? Before pushing something there, just try to understand and think of the instances. This is not a speculation by the way. I'm just saying. And I have proof of the notification for an update.

[LG Optimus Black] iamLance:
Going out

I'm heading off. I'll try to update later this morning or in the afternoon if I'm not that busy. And then I'll tell you guys what it is. If anybody here gets the notification same as I did, please do share if you already have updated.
[LG Optimus Black] quyTam:
This post is useless like ton of other posts that said they have lg update notification that endly is froyo update.

Lg update notifications are buggy, so if you don't have installed and verify that you really have 2.3, posting that you have lg notification means nothing.
[LG Optimus Black] Redpik:
So, there is no proof if under country name isn't a V20. Even lg pcsync was saying new update, but after reading the phone sw all stops saying it's up to date. Korea got an update, but phones are not compatible. China did too, but with a test version

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 3947990:
I used 2.3.5 JVT (+root) for some weeks perfectly fine on my Galaxy S I9000, though a bit laggy due to too many apps.

Today I rebooted the phone and got stuck in a boot loop. Never had that before.

I went into CWM recovery, wiped cache and did factory reset. Did not resolve a thing.

Then I flashed the whole phone again with the 2.3.5 JVT and it did not help either.

What can I do? The phone goes into download and recovery mode perfectly fine, so guess it's OK. I see Odin has an Option "EFS Clear". Would that help?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cabessius:
I would not tick that option. What happened when you flashed stock JVT with Odin? Bootloop?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 3947990:
Yes I use the stock firmware, that is firmware from sammobile.com (samfirmware.com). No fancy mods.

Tried with and without root. Both give me boot loops.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cabessius:
If you properly used Odin with the 3 files, pit, and repartition ticked, and you get bootloops after that then it goes beyond my experience. Maybe corrupted stock rom download? Download again stock JVS or JVT (change the one that you used before).
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 3947990:
ok tried too other firmwares. still bootloops.

then i tried stock 2.3.3 and it went past boot screen. but it said UIDs inconsistent, need to wipe data partition. so i wiped data partition. but still same error.

seems like something strange is going on here. i'm always using 512 pit file and flashing with repartition checked!

OK tried a couple of other roms with no success. I read in another thread that someone had exactly the same problem and had Samsung fix it.

Now I am having a problem wiping my SDcard. The CWM backups are on the SDcard, right? So why can I still select them if I wipe the SDcard in Recovery?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 3947990:
OK, Samsung replaced the motherboard of the phone (warranty).

It's working again now.

So to everybody that is having the same problem, it is a hardware problem, most likely. But you will need to have tried everything else that could fix it beforehand, of course.

Will my phone be recognized by kies?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] supergaijin:
most likely, but I don't use kies for anything, not even backing up files. I do that simply by making a copy of whatever I want to save and putting it on my computer via the sd card.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Taraen:
Don't use KIES! A simple file backup to your computer and a backup created with titanium backup on your sd card that can be simply saved on your computer are by far enough to save your files, apps, app data like settings as well as system settings.

If you what you go a step further you can create a nandroid backup, or image, however this is called. Imagine this as a system image that can be restored in case of boot loop, etc.

My Phone Explorer is also a very good piece of software. Can replace the contact editing functions of KIES. It is also able to make you phone calling contacts, writing SMS on your computer with your phone. It can edit your calendar, create notes, browse, run and install apps, browse all files on your phone that are acessable without root.

Charge ur phone before doing this

1. Download ur stock rom from this link http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1004647

2. Try booting into download mode either by normal method or another one which i did

Take out battery, sim card and memory card

While pressing power, home and vol. down key insert the battery try until download mode is reached!
