Can I extract the radio.img and flash it that's all I need since leedroid doesn't work on the new base. I tried looking on the radio/ril but I can see the right file since I'm on the phone thanks
[HTC Sensation] joaquinf:
Yes you can. Flash it via fastboot
[HTC Sensation] Kohr-Ah:
Yes you can.

You will need to to push via fastboot though if you extract it.

Sent from my Sensation in UrQuan subspace
[HTC Sensation] DarkRaven66:
Thanks bro, so basically just take it out of the zip and push it via adb fastboot?
[HTC Sensation] Kohr-Ah:
Yup then do

"Fastboot flash radio radio.img"

That will push it. Do this in the bootloader screen :-)

i have tried a few roms and a few firmwares and i seem to keep getting random power offs not restarts power off and its really getting me mad now
[HTC Sensation] Kohr-Ah:
That doesn't sound like a ROM issue or Firmware issue that sounds like a defect issue.

Does it happen after the same amount of time or randomly? Is your battery touching the pins securely or is it loose a little bit?

Sent from my Sensation in UrQuan subspace
[HTC Sensation] DjLukeW:
When I had that problem, it was the battery.

So I bought an Anker 1900mAh and its never happened since
[HTC Sensation] :
very often the battery is not making contact as it should, try cleaning the contacts with alcohol or you can also put a piece of paper between the battery and the body of the phone a lot to solve the problem.

update after flashing

hi.

if i flash the 3.33 user friendly firmware on my phone,will i still be able to receive updates from htc??

Are you using the stock HTC rom and are just s-off? If that is the case then yes you will still get OTAs

If you are s-on then it won't flash

Do most of the ics roms work with the 3.33, I've already installed it.no problems but I was just wondering if I change roms in the future?

Also I installed the version without boot 1:29 so my h boot is still the same right?
[HTC Sensation] furqan79:
how can i check my current firmware help me ..
[HTC Sensation] ClydeB1:
http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=28612810&postcount=74121 although according to this my firmware version is 9.99.999.999 :eek:

You can also check your radio version if the baseband is 11.24A,3504.31_M, then unless you actually installed that particular radio your firmware must have been updated to 3.33
[HTC Sensation] furqan79:
my fast boot command is not working its shows revolutionary so what is other way i just want to know either i am on 3.24 or 3.32
[HTC Sensation] ClydeB1:
Check my edit in post above - although that refers to 3.33. For 3.32 your radio baseband should be 11.23.3504 I believe
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

Have you looked here:

Settings>about phone>software information>more>baseband version/build number

:)
[HTC Sensation] Kohr-Ah:
3.32 Roms run on 3.33 no problem (that I have seen so far). I am running 3.32 ROMs on 3.33.

And correct. If you installed it from here your hboot is still either JBBoot or Revolutionary 1.27.1100 but even if you did do 1.29.0000 you are still unlocked all you lost was the use of fastboot commands.
[HTC Sensation] ClydeB1:
@Kohr-Ah, any ideas why my firmware version shows up as 9.99.999.999 when running fastboot getvar command?
[HTC Sensation] Kohr-Ah:
Did you perchance flash the 3.33 firmware from baad?

Reason I ask is his firmware is fine and works as it should but in his android-info.txt file it reads

mainver: 9.99.999.999

Universal FW reads mainver: 3.33.401.106

That may be why you see it.
[HTC Sensation] ClydeB1:
I can't recall as I got it from one of the mirrors from one of the Eleganica team members. Could be though
[HTC Sensation] Kohr-Ah:
See my edit from above. Open the android info file and read the mainver line.
[HTC Sensation] ClydeB1:
Yeah that's what it is:

mainver: 9.99.999.999
[HTC Sensation] Kohr-Ah:
Funny thing is I never knew until you mentioned it that the mainver line actually got flashed into the phone's FW reading :P

I mean it doesn't matter as the files inside do but you learn something new every day.
[HTC Sensation] realsis:
Thank you for the firmware! I flashed over 3.33 and all is well. No issue and better reception! Wonderful! Your hard work is much Appreciated!

[HTC Sensation] gabryeludrea:
Hello to all! One quick question here: I have S-OFF, custom Hboot 1.27, custom recovery. I want to reflash the 3.33 stock RUU. I extracted the rom.zip file from the official HTC RUU and I plan to delete the recovery and hboot files from it, rename it and flash it from the sd card, because I don't want to install those things again. Is this ok?

Your answer will be greatly appreciated!
[HTC Sensation] Kohr-Ah:
Logically it should work but RUU zips are usually flashed via bootloader since the rom image is commonly located inside the firmware . zip package. (it will be like a 800mb.img file)

[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

Have you removed the battery,sim and sd card ,left it for a while,then put it back and try to get into bootloader?

Ah okay if you get that that tells me you are in the bootloader. Adb doesn't work in the bootloader and fastboot doesn't work in recovery. 9.99.999.999 tells me you used firmware from baad or elegancia. Mine would show up as 3.33.401 as first digits

So first thing first download universal 3.32

Take the case off the back of your phone.

pop the SDCARD out

Choose bootloader

Then go down to recovery

Pop the sdcard in

Select recovery

Adb push pg58img.zip /sdcard

Adb reboot bootloader

And hopefully it flashes

Can I flash 3.33 firmware from custom recovery (4ext) ?
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

Yes,you can.

Place on the root of your sd card,and it will be read when you go into bootloader.

:)
[HTC Sensation] ClydeB1:
No, the firmware can only be installed from bootloader. You need to copy the PG58IMG.zip file to the root of your sd card and then boot into bootloader. The device should scan and pick up the file and it will ask if you want to update.
[HTC Sensation] alex6600:
Probably you don't understand me :)

I have problem with putting out sd card.If I put file,and boot intu bootloader- on every reboot phone will flash New firmware. Becose I want flash firmware from custom recovery (I have 4ext recovery installed )

Or can I boot phone with new firmware and current Rom ( rooted stock on 3.32 firmware) for removing firmware file?
[HTC Sensation] ClydeB1:
I do understand ;) You can boot to 4EXT Recovery and using usb mass storage you can place the firmware package onto the sd card if you can't remove your card. Then boot to bootloader and flash the firmware as it can't be flashed via 4EXT. Once finished with the update you will need to reboot the phone normally (not bootloader) and then using a file explorer delete the file so that it doesn't want to flash each time you go to bootloader.
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

Place the PG58IMG.zip on the root of your sd card.

Boot into bootloader ,then let it update.

After it says update complete,power off.

Take out the sd card put it into a card reader,put it into your pc,and delete the PG58IMG.zip

Then put the card back into your phone and continue with the superwipe and ROM installation

[HTC Sensation] ClydeB1:
He says he has a problem with the sd card and can't remove it ;)
[HTC Sensation] undercover:
That's pretty cool! Someone should send it for a repair with something like 4.82.782.5

[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

I am not sure why you cannot remove the card.

Look HERE

There is a section which says :

How to flash the ICS 3.33 firmware

Read step 5

:)
[HTC Sensation] ClydeB1:
I know that, I was only saying that the other user with the problem ie alex6600 says HE can't remove the sd card from the phone, as to why he can't I have absolutely no idea, but if he can't remove the card he can't do step 5 as is documented, so he will have to reboot the phone normally and delete the file from his sd card using a file explorer on his phone.

When you flash the android info file the mainversion part of the file gets programmed onto the board

Hint why I know when people use Baad's FW cause his android info file reports:

INFOversion-main: 9.99.999.999

So if I sent my phone in for repair to HTC and they did "fastboot getvar all" mine would say

2. Yup the patch flashes the same way. (This allows the use of fastboot commands like fastboot flash recovery recovery.img)

and if i dont flash the patch can i still flash ruus if i want to revert it back to stock??
[HTC Sensation] ClydeB1:
Yes you can...
[HTC Sensation] kpjimmy:
Didn't see it in my search, but since using AOSP ROMS like CM9, changes to the hboot (ie updating the firmware) will render bootloops when restarting. I had to take out the card and erase the img file to get into recovery. Then I was able to reformat everything except the SD card, then flashed my goodies and rebooted.

I searched before to see if there were fixes to bootloops upon updating firmware but I came across threads that said to revert back to stock and etc...which was a bit much work for just a firmware update that needs a reformat of the phone.

And yes the reformat in recovery does erase all your apps and data. :p I have a titanium backup of my apps every other day so I didn't lose anything :D
[HTC Sensation] emanon:
All you need to after updating new firmware is delete the img file sdcard, boot into recovery and wipe cash/delvik cash and you are done, no need to reinstall everything over.

Help on Firmware - stuck

:pI am coming from Gingerbread. I am confirmed SuperCID and backed up everything. Based on a prior post it suggested I first update to firmware 3.32 before 3.33. I put the image on the SD card and everything looked okay but never made it past the HTC screen. I waited about 15 minutes. Afterward I went into to recovery mode and it said I had successfulk recovery but now it keeps cycling through the HTC, HTC quietly brilliant screen with no progress?

So I have 2 questions:

1) what is the next best move to make some progress

2) After going through the firmware 3.32 upgrade what is supposed to happen? Can I reboot and use my phone or do I need to flash new rom and then it will work? Can I tell if 3.32 was successful? Also if the directions said I need to go to 3.33 before flash rom then do I just flash 3.32 then 3.33 then rom?

Help?
[HTC Sensation] emanon:
Coming from GB after flashed the new 3.32 and 3.33 firmware did you install 3.32 or 3.33 based ROM cause 3.32 and 3.33 firmware won't run on GB. if you already installed 3.32 or 3.33 based ROM then reboot into recovery and wipe cash/delvik cash.

Firmware version

The post says I need 3.33 but need 3.32 first. However the bigger issues is how can I tell if the firmware updated since I haven't flashed the ROM yet.

Also, ROM not downloading from China - any mirrors out there?
[HTC Sensation] ClydeB1:
The main difference is the updated radio.
[HTC Sensation] ClydeB1:
Check the radio version in bootloader. If radio is 11.76A.3504.00P_11.24A.3504.31_M then you have successfully updated to 3.33. Alternatively you can run the following cmd via adb/fastboot: fastboot getvar version-main
[HTC Sensation] faultytowersdude:
Just a quick question, I flashed 3.33 and its working great.

Baseband is 11.76A.3504.00U_11.24A.3504.31_M

And GSM.version.ril-impl is

Htc-ril 4.0.0013HMQ

Is this correct I was wondering why GSM.version.ril-impl has not changed. Apologies if this has already been answered.
[HTC Sensation] ClydeB1:
RIL is part of the rom and not in firmware. You can flash the corresponding ril from the radio/ril thread if required or else get GETRIL from PlayStore which can do this for you.

And ril htc-ril 4.0.0037HMQ is matched to firmware 11.76A.3504.00P_11.24A.3504.31_M
