Thanks. I will give it a try. I already have SuperCID, so bit confused. Hmm, should I flash the firmware, then flash a new ROM, then reflash the HBOOT, and then reflash the ROM again?
[HTC Sensation] Blackboyx:
quick question mike, does every sensation can flash the mod that Kohr-Ah made flashable? and by flashing it does is it flashing it through recovery or in hboot? sorry for the noob question

[HTC Sensation] undercover:
Just double check that you are supercid, people managed to lose it somehow :) then just follow 1-12 with 1.17 hboot pg58
[HTC Sensation] madindehead:
Yeah, definitely still SuperCID.

The ENG H-BOOT has flashed properly, but it still gets stuck on the screen. It's very weird why this is happening :confused:

If it's ONLY the bootloader that is being flashed, I see no reason why it's causing the ROM to not boot, when everything else is correct...
[HTC Sensation] undercover:
Ah, my bad. It was the case initially, but not with just hboot. Will edit op.
[HTC Sensation] madindehead:
Meh. I will just leave it for now. A working phone is more important as of Monday than having ENG H-BOOT. It would be nice, but I'll wait until more people flash this.
[HTC Sensation] undercover:
I mean no need to reflash anything, just pg58
[HTC Sensation] dublinz:
OK, I do have some random reboots on my phone, anyhow now I do have several logs, anyone interested? It might help some dev....
[HTC Sensation] madindehead:
Yeah. Even so, it's not working sadly.

I flashed the 3.12 firmware, flashed the ROM. Let the ROM boot up once, so I know if it hangs or if it's taking it's time.

Then I reflashed PG58 (with the ENG H-BOOT one) and the phone just hangs on the Beats splash screen again.

What I don't understand is this:

The ROM based on 3.12 NEEDS that adsp file to boot. Surely, the bootloader version shouldn't matter here?
[HTC Sensation] dublinz:
Strange I did exactly the same, but no problem whatever! Are u trying to install 1.17 hboot? I was able to flash it without any issue
[HTC Sensation] madindehead:
Yeah. The thing is, the ENG H-BOOT flashed itself properly, I can see that. But the ROM refuses to boot past the Beats Audio screen.

This is VERY annoying that it won't flash.

Can I ask, what was the order you flashed in exactly? Then I can try it, and see what happens.
[HTC Sensation] mike1986.:
get the logcat mate.
[HTC Sensation] deronjp:
When u go back to hboot 1.17 does that remove the **locked** n leave every thing else such new radio and partitoning from 1.20 ?
[HTC Sensation] madindehead:
Will do.

Ok, here it is. Hope it helps :)
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
adb logcat > log.txt

Then it will go to the directory of adb file
[HTC Sensation] Catnap:
As far as I know, the new firmware + ROM requires HBoot 1.23- while you can install 1.17, it won't boot.

That's what I heard from someone else who tried it, anyway.
[HTC Sensation] madindehead:
Well yeah, that's what I thought. But people are saying they managed to get it to work.

I am specifically talking about flashing mikes latest ROM, version 6, with the 3.12 firmware, and then flashing BACK to ENG H-BOOT 1.17. It gets past beats screen with H-BOOT 1.23. With ENG H-BOOT 1.17, it hangs.

I don't have a problem flashing the actual bootloader though, that all works correctly.
[HTC Sensation] Catnap:
Yes, that's what I mean- it hangs with 1.17.
[HTC Sensation] madindehead:
Yeah. Does indeed.

Bit annoying, didn't think the ROM would care that much about the H-BOOT version, considering everything else is there.

Oh well. The people who got it to work, obviously aren't using a 3.12 based ROM.
[HTC Sensation] undercover:
Not Rom, kernel afaik. I didn't realise you stayed on ics when flashing eng hboot. Yes, it does not work. I suppose its like you'd need different hboot to boot Windows, a bit exaggerated but you get my idea.

[HTC Sensation] geoffcorey:
Supercid = no need to add anything to the android-info.txt file in the pg------.zip file.

Here is what I did:

1. Dl the firmware file.

2. Removed the splash image (I have one I like and don't want htc's, and no need to do this step)

3. Reboot into bootloader, supercid.

4. Put pg------.zip on sdcard.

[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
Maybe not, it reboots part way through to update radio and another partition. As long as it didn't power off in the middle of flashing a partition should be ok. Did u check the files md5 if not u may have just flashed a corrupted download and u may well be bricked

ok forgive me if it's been asked before but i have been reading for the past 4 hours and am getting retarded here.

am on ARHD 4.1.11 - with normal base boot 17

i want to flash the new v6 rom

i figured i need to install the PG file on mike's thread but am not super cid so i follow ed the steps and found my cid is not supported so i followed the step where i manually put my cid in the zip file which i did "without extrating file as noted by mike)

now am confused on what to do next as i read somewhere that phone gets locked after flashing the PG file and i need to flash another file after it "not sure if this is true"

so here is what am going to do and correct me if am wrong.

1- copy mike's PG file on SD card (knowing i already added my cid)

2- follow on screen steps

3- remove PG file ( by powering off then doing delete procedure while sd connected to PC)

4- put sd back in phone and boot in recovery

5- super wipe

6- as radio is already in PG file i do not need to update radio

7- flash ARHD v6 (no need to flash RIL as it's included in rom)

8- pray it works

9- no need to flash anything else???

please guys help me out here before i do something wrong

I flashed and the new firmware and 6.0.0 and decided to go back to 3.6.x because it still felt way smoother and faster but after wiping and.restoring my back up twice its not as smooth as it used to be before. And with 3.6.x I never had anylag exept when downloading apps but now its noticably laggier, even in games:( If the firmware improved performance in 5.0.0 the its possible the new one could do the opposite to gingerbread no ??

Radio fault

I have run into a problem:

I decided to upgrade to InsertCoin 4.1.0 Ice Cream Sandwich.

I'm S-off with SuperCID.

was running 4.0.8, so first I flashed FW to version 3.12 as per Mike's thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1412618

Once that was done I saw that HBOOT was now showing 1.2.3.

I then installed IC 4.0.9. When it was done and rebooted I had Wifi, but no cellular signal. I dialled *#*#4636#*#*. Under Phone info I saw CDMA as the radio type. I attempted to change it to GSM preferred as well as WCDMA preferred. It would not allow me to modify anything.

So I flashed the previous FW PG58IMG.zip file. Fastboot showed it reverted to HBOOT 1.2.0000

Here's where I stuffed up:

I forgot to remove the PG58IMG.zip file from my SD card and rebooted. Now it won't complete the boot (wrong firmware), but I cannot access wipe or restore functions in recovery as it detects the PG58IMG.zip file and only allows me to update FW again or reboot.

Now I'm stuck until I can get myself a universal card reader (don't have 1) to edit card contents; unless someone has a better suggestion?
[HTC Sensation] Kohr-Ah:
Take your SD Card out. Boot into bootloader. When in bootloader put SDCard back in, then choose Recovery.

It won't ask to update.
[HTC Sensation] undercover:
That's why you should read before you flash something, especially firmware. Concider yourself lucky, as few people messed up their phones by reflashing fw multiple times by accident

Backup of firmware and radio

Hello dear dev.

I have been using ADHD for some time now, and i have never updated my HTC Sensation radio.

But now when i want to flash ICS ADHD 6.0.2

I also want to flash new radio and i have to flash new firmware

I have never flashed radio or firmware, but i am sure i can do it

But to be sure i allways do a backup of, but how do i make a backup of radio and firmware ?

Can it be done ? or do i need to run a RUU if something ****s up ?

I know that a RUU can help if something with flashing rom goes wrong, so i can imagine that it also can help if i get a radio or firmware update error :)

Thanks in advance
