Neither have anything to do with beats audio.

3.12.401.2/102 is if you want to use a 4.0.3 ICS ROM

3.06.401.1/101 is if you want to use a 4.0.1 ICS ROM

Beats is just software. The Rom DEV provides that.

Well, flashing firmware is a sure way to brick your device if something goes wrong. The only thing you CAN do is to make sure you know as much as possible about process to minimize chances of it going wrong.
[HTC Sensation] cyber_system:
1. Check your CID using fastboot getvar cid and MID using fastboot getvar mid

2a. If your CID and MID are supported by default, navigate to point 3.

2b. If your CID or MID is not supported by default, do this: (you do it at your own risk)

My CID which is (HTC__Y13) and it is supported by Firmware from 3.12.401.2/102 RUU

I've thought a lot about getting SuperCID, just for furture use, but now when my sensation is supported is it a bad idea to get SuperCID ?

I am just worry about something goes wrong :)

3. Place PG58IMG.zip on your SD card

4. Boot your device holding power button + vol down button

5. Follow instructions on the screen

I have done something similar, when i got root and had to get another Hboot

But what can go wrong with the firmware update, if i check MD5 checksum after copy the zip file to SD Card :)

Is it really so important to update the firmware to use ADHD 6.0.2 ?

What does the firmware contain ?

Priceless:p
[HTC Sensation] mike1986.:
It seems that first I need to enable back my fastboot. what was the method?
[HTC Sensation] ziggy1001:
Restoring hboot 1.17 did it for me
[HTC Sensation] mike1986.:
Just flash it in PG58IMG.zip?

hboot_Pyramid_8x60_1.17.0011_20110602_signedbyaa.nb0 or hboot_8x60_1.17.0008_20110513_signedbyaa.nb0?
[HTC Sensation] ziggy1001:
I found this but it's just labeled as hboot in the zip

Read op in StockXE kernel thread. Might give you a clue what to do.

Does anyone know what raw_speed_bin or speed_bin is? I looked into CPU, they are identical, both msm8260, XE is not msm8660 as some say. So it must be some value we can change.....
[HTC Sensation] kristofpetho:
Mike,

Might flashing a 3.06 Sensation firmware help with the WIFI not working under ICS-based ROMs?

Thanks
[HTC Sensation] mike1986.:
StockXE kernel thread? I might be blind but never seen such...

[HTC Sensation] undercover:
You never know, give it a go, you can always revert one way or another.
[HTC Sensation] mike1986.:
But kernels in 3.06 XE and "non XE" are 100% the same. So there must be a solution on non-kernel level.
[HTC Sensation] undercover:
That's exactly what I mean. We need to find out what speed_bin and raw_speed_bin are. Unless its embedded in CPU itself on such low level that you would need jtag to change it.
[HTC Sensation] kristofpetho:
Sorry for this bump, but might the WIFI errors be hardware-related and have nothing to do with the firmware? :(

I now have the newest firmware with hboot 1.20 unlocked, but I still can not connect to any WIFI network, but I can see them...
[HTC Sensation] mike1986.:
My wifi is also not working well with ICS. I need to investigate it more, didn't have time yet.
[HTC Sensation] kristofpetho:
OK, thanks Mike. I have read mixed reports on WIFI working / not working, (just like the SD-card).

I'll then just chalk this up the test-leak-nature of ICS at the moment and will hope for a resolve soon.
[HTC Sensation] undercover:
Fresh install caused instability and errors and stuff not working properly. Install over previous 3.5 Rom was very stable on the other hand. Tested few times.

[HTC Sensation] truckerdewd:
Couple of quick questions. I have a Sensation 4G on T-Mobile in the US. It's s-off and bootloader is unlocked. Didn't do super cid. Used the HTC Dev unlocker when I got the phone used. Which ruu do I use and what else, if anything do I need to do? Warranty isn't an issue since I got the phone from someone on Craigslist.

Thanks for any answers you can provide.

i keep getting model id incorrect. i have a htc senstation for t-mobile. what do i do?
[HTC Sensation] Kohr-Ah:
1- Either SuperCID

2- Edit the Android-Info and add your MID

3- Use the Firmware in my Signature as I already edited it.
[HTC Sensation] JontyJonty:
Hi guys hope you can help. I am having CID problems flashing this file. Have checked the cid and mid of my handset and is as follows -

C:\Android>fastboot getvar cid

cid: T-MOB005

finished. total time: 0.000s

C:\Android>fastboot getvar mid

mid: PG5813000

finished. total time: 0.000s

I have added it to the text file

cidnum: HTC__005

and tried it as cidnum: HTC_T-MOB005 but neither work. Where am I going wrong. Or can you please add this cid to the list?

All help appreciated, have now dropped down to Android_Revolution_HD-Sensation_3.6.11.zip, just to get my phone to boot up, really want to install 6.02.
[HTC Sensation] Kohr-Ah:
Do

cidnum: T-MOB005

in the text file. Not HTC__005
[HTC Sensation] Perseusjp:
i placed this on sd card. put back in phone. im not getting model id incorrect anymore. it just scrolls down and come back to the fastboot menu. im not getting any instructions on screen. im also not even seeing radio under hboot anymore.
[HTC Sensation] Kohr-Ah:
Then it isn't recognizing the PG58IMG.zip file.

Did you put it on the root if your sdcard? (Aka /sdcard)
[HTC Sensation] JontyJonty:
You are amazing!! Thanks, been struggling with this for a while!! Worked a treat :-)
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
Haha seriously. Maybe ignore everyone here including Rom devs and give it a go without firmware and see what happens :p
[HTC Sensation] jesterpaul:
I thought of that after sleeping on it :) Brain musta been fried from surgery I underwent. All restored to 4.0.6 via recovery now :)

My question is: Has anyone else flashed the same radio and got radio jammed onto CDMA (so phone is useless as we're all WCDMA and GSM only here)?

What could I do to fix that from happening (I still want latest ICS ROM installed)?
[HTC Sensation] ziggy1001:
Look in build.prop at

# Default network type.

# 0 => WCDMA preferred.

ro.telephony.default_network=1

Most custom roms are set to 0 for WCDMA but i change mine to 1 for GSM as i use wifi a lot, this value is set when flashing a rom it can't be changed afterwards

If your phone is stuck sounds like a bad flash so full wipe try again or use phone info app from market to change network

Latest IC rom needs hboot 1.23
[HTC Sensation] jesterpaul:
I ended up in that very situation after a corrupt version 3.12. radio forced me to downgrade to previous one, when IC 4.1.0 was already installed.

Boot hung on the beats screen. Had to restore previous ROM from Nandroid.
[HTC Sensation] TheManMountain:
HBOOT Update loop

I have tried to flash this and followed the instructions to the T. However somewhere I must have missed something. I have been searching and read a ton of the threads....

I tried flashing the rom I have supercid. It says it s-off however after attempting to flash rom hboot now says LOCKED. It asked me if I wanted to update and I said yes however everytime I get into HBOOT now it asks if I want to update. I can say yes or no and then reboot. thats it. Any help would be appreciated thanks

Try rolling back to HBOOT 1.17 then forward to HBOOT 1.23
[HTC Sensation] :
Just a quick question before I bite the bullet and upgrade my firmware, how safe is it to return s-on using Hboot engine 1.17??

Also if I upgrade the radio but return to a GB rom where is the matched RIL file for the new radio?

I appreciate that there has been a couple questions answered regarding this but there is no answer about s-on and Hboot 1.17?

Thanks

Nik
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
Looks like u just picked a whole bunch of whoopsie daisies!

Try the eng hboot 1.17 then is download and the new firmware package again and be sure to check md5 when its on the card. Sounds like its got corrupted :(
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
To s-on you'll have to downgrade to hboot 1.17, which will allow you to use the fastboot command to write the secure flag to the phone. If u do plan on doing s-on be very very careful, I bricked my phone messing about with that!
[HTC Sensation] Jandyman:
I have a regular sensation and i want to flash this but haven't access to a computer to get my CID and MID.

When i s-offed my device I'm sure i set superCID as well which would mean my CID is 1111 i tink. But i don't know my mID for sure.

Is it safe to flash this straight as is? Without editing android txt file or getting mid,(because i presume my CID and MID are already in the list)
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
U need to be sire, just wait cos it will atop half way otherwise
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
Well u didn't flash the new firmware cos it didn't let you which is why the Rom won't boot. Please read and check things properly before u flash something. If u do this wrong it can and will Brick your device.

Try the firmware In kohr-ahs Sig, see if your mid is in that list..
[HTC Sensation] :
Thanks for the reply, I have s-on ok before with the revolution Hboot with no problems, what is the extra risk using eng Hboot to s-on?
[HTC Sensation] TheUndertaker21:
i have the same problem with this rom.

i flashed the PIMG file i have 1.23 people said its ok then flashed the virtuous rom. stuck in a boot loop

now i cant even flash any PIMG :( sucks i wanna try that rom. so badly
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
If your thinking of this for returns I wouldn't return it with engineering hboot on it. Eng hboot just has more commands unlocked on it
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
...... See my post 2 above yours same issue, same answer. I'm not writing it in that quick succession!

When u say same issue I'm assuming your firmware update failed partway through die to incorrect mid or cid too ?
[HTC Sensation] :
I was thinking for returns, correct. I was wondering if u could s-on with eng Hboot then run a normal ruu. I'll just flash it anyway, thanks for replying
[HTC Sensation] jesterpaul:
I removed everything off SD card, flashed back to the previous radio, and restored previous system from Nandroid backup.

I then re-downloaded the 3.1.2 FW package from Elegencia ROM site (just to get a different one) and re-flashed the FW. It now shows HBOOT 1.2.3.000 in fastboot mode.

I then booted it on IC 4.0.8 and it worked fine.

I then did a full factory reset and then a full wipe using Mike's Revolution super wipe file. I then reinstalled IC 4.0.9.

When I booted it up, my radio was again stuck on CDMA only. I could not change it from *#*#4636#*#* or even using the radio info app. It simply won't update when I select a different radio mode (tried WCDMA preferred and GSM preferred).

I then updated to IC 4.1.0 and BINGO all worked fine :)

Seems I'm having the issue specifically with IC 4.0.9 ROM, rather than the radio.

Now to restore a zillion apps :p

[HTC Sensation] straptin958:
Stumped

Had a T-MOB010 with PG5810000 and i was using the modified update file to use and it worked up until the point of installing the Radio. It failed there.

I figured out how to SuperCID and then changed CID to 11111111 and redid the update and got the same thing. Failed at installing the radio.
[HTC Sensation] undercover:
I'd do it on pc. But if you feel.adventurous, there is a thread.somewhere in General of how to do it without fastboot.
[HTC Sensation] undercover:
Go to thread in my Sig and follow it to the letter. And don't assume you have superCID, actually check it as per instructions there. I mean don't assume anything, double check..
[HTC Sensation] sromer:
Thanks for the info.

I really cbf waiting until i get home to do it, so i'll give that a try.

I asked in several threads but they don't have the answer so I thought I would ask here since this thread is very populated.

Situation

:

I have a T-mobile HTC Sensation 4G using Pyramid 3D Sense 3.0 with the newest firmware update, radio (11.65.3504.00p_11.19.3504.29_2), and ril (4.0.0003HMQ).
