Hmm,

Never tried before.

Phone Terminal:

"getprop ro.cid" gives "VODAP001"

Fastboot:

"getvar cid" gives "cid: 11111111"

I believe the Fastboot version of CID is the important one as far as flashing stuff, installing RUU etc. The way my phone is ATM I'm SuperCID for flashing and it's certainly the only one I'd considered.

I must admit I'm surprised that they're not the same though. I'll have an idle search for this.

EDIT: Found some info from a very old thread, it'll just add to confusion so won't post. In essence just use the SuperCID method contained in the following thread and it'll work, i.e. Fastboot to write and check.

Thanks Man now its working :)
[HTC Sensation] Kohr-Ah:
Fastboot will show current cid.

Terminal and Cid getter show your phone's original Cid :)

I don't know why it is done this way. I am assuming the fastboot reads off the eeprom but the terminal and Cid getter read off something in the built in hardware

That is what is nice though. If you don't know your original CID you can find out that way in case you even need to fix it so you can send back for warranty

[HTC Sensation] Blackboyx:
Hi Kohr-Ah, regarding the update that time you help me when I PM you. Is this a updated version or the same as that time?
[HTC Sensation] ibanezq:
Sorry for a stupid question. :/

We need this to s-off and restore CWM-backup-ed previous ROMs?
[HTC Sensation] Kohr-Ah:
The patched version is the same as 3.24 Firmware I have posted but it allows Fastboot commands to work again.
[HTC Sensation] Kohr-Ah:
I can't honestly remember when that was :P I have to delete a lot of messages out of my inbox every other day. If it is based off of what your signature says (you are on 6.0.2) 3.24 is Newer and is used to run 6.1.1

Have you tried to restore your phone with an original RUU, get it back to stock, and then reroot with revolutionary?
[HTC Sensation] Nightwing0815:
Of course, tried it with all official RUU's for the XE:

RUU_Pyramid_LE_HTC_Europe_1.72.401.1_Radio_10.58.9 035.00U_10.15.9035.02_2_release_214840_signed.exe

and of course with the inofficial test RUU:

RUU_PYRAMID_LE_ICS_35_S_HTC_Europe_3.12.401.102_Ra dio_11.65.3504.00U_11.19.3504.29_2_test_233434.exe

Tried it with the RUU installer and with the "extract rom.zip from installer and rename it as PG58IMG.zip" method.

No chance... Any ideas, what i can do now?

Thanks in advance,

I don't know if any one asked but I have supercid and I was wondering if I could updated my firmware to the 3.24 revolutionary firmware? Or is there a link to it somewhere that you didn't edit? I on T-Mobile US.

Thanks in advance.
[HTC Sensation] Blackboyx:
So this is there any order I can go in order I just put it in SDcard root folder and go to hboot? Also, if I upgraded once with the older firmware, do I need to do anything before updating it to the latest?
[HTC Sensation] Kohr-Ah:
SuperCid you can use any file. So yes you can :)
[HTC Sensation] Kohr-Ah:
Backup Current ROM (just incase)

Firmware to SDCard Root

Flash Firmware

Reboot (At this point it will not boot. It will stay at HTC screen)

Take out SD Card and remove PG58IMG (if you can't without phone then just boot in recovery and put SD back in)

Super Wipe

Flash new Rom

Then you should be good.
[HTC Sensation] Parthiv:
Possible Solution- Worked for me.

I tried using this solution because my CID and MID is listed. CID= HTC__J15 and MID = PG5813000.

But do you have this same screen as mine? Well, I think we have the same ***Security Warning*** message.

I think it might be because the we are both S-ONed (as was mention in your other posts).

I also tried doing some other things to solve the loop but I was stuck as well. Even when I choose Recovery, it still went back to the same screen (screen 1).

I even tried flashing it with

RUU_Pyramid_HTC_ARA_1.34.415.1_Radio_10.43a.9007.00U_10.51.9007.27_M3_release_197242_signed.exe

and I got

ERROR[140] Bootloader Version Error

and I was still stuck.

I tried this one out because I want to bring back my phone for repairs and is still under warranty. You can check out my dilemma through: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=21756585#post21756585

However, try this one, if you're still stuck. It worked for me: (Everything got erased though, and I had to re-setup my phone)

Removed phone from USB Cable.

Reinstalled HTC Sync (I uninstalled it a couple of days back when I had the problem of S-ON)

Unlocked using "fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin" (I got the Unlock_code.bin when I unlocked my phone through HTC Dev.)

When I did "adb devices", my phone is not listed.

I just tried "fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin" it went in.

Driver auto-update happened.

Phone reboot (mine did automatically).

I hope this helps. Please post if it worked for you or not. It might help others as well.

Unfortunately, I am still stuck with my warranty dilemma. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=21756585#post21756585

[HTC Sensation] zedaale:
But is it important to choose a right one according to our country? Or is that irrelevant? Does reception depend on that choice? Thanks
[HTC Sensation] ClydeB1:
If you are Supercid then you can use any one. The only differences between the files AFAIK is the changes made to the android-info.txt file for the different cid versions for those not using Supercid. If you aren't Supercid then you need to choose the file that has been modified for your device, but the rest of the content packages (ie radio etc) are all the same.

[HTC Sensation] fluke73:
Hello, i have some major problems. I was running virtuous ROM 3.5 on my HTC Sensation, (and before that ARHD 6.0-something). I have been trying to change over to Android Revolution HD 6.5.1. Now the phone stuck and rebooting all the time. I've been trying to change the firmware several times and install the new ARHD - since that didn't work, i wanted to try the latest Virtuous 4.0 with the right firmware and don't work either. My phone is still stuck rebooting. I can access the phone thanks to the 4EXT and mount the memorycard to my computer.

Im using 4EXT Recovery Touch and my phone looks like this when i go into bootloader mode.

CID: 11111111

What can i do to get out of this reboot loop, i would like to get either Virtuous 4.0 or the latest ARHD.

One big issue i have also is that my volume buttons is not working so i can't get into bootloader menu, but im using adb reboot-bootloader to start up the bootloader - when installing the firmware it's a lottery if i can select yes or no.

If you don't have adb it is in the first post and you will need htc sync for the drivers.

Confused over latest firmware:confused:

Is there a difference in 3.32.401.3 and 3.32.401.5?

I'm running fine 3.32.401.3 with no problems, but I'm confused since most new ICS roms are running off the 3.32.401.5 base...

So is there a specific firmware version 3.32.401.5 that needs to be applied?

Or is 3.32.401.3 the latest and greatest firmware?

Kohr,

"- HTC Sensation 4G (U.S. T-Mobile PG5810000 | T-MOB010) users can flash this for better signal and data speeds!" - located in ARHD6.5.1XE changelog

Is this a ROM specific update where as the firmware file is only associated with ARHD6.5.1XE? Or is this a firmware specific update where as it can be used with any ROM as long as you are using the firmware associated?

I want to flash the firmware, but I don't know if it's safe because I'm not using ARHD6.5.1XE. Figured you are the firmware expert here.

Thanks!
[HTC Sensation] Kohr-Ah:
It shouldn't cause you any harm to be honest. It is the rcdata.img file.

I actually used the one from this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1385439 when I wasn't on ICS and it may be the same file. I just deleted everything in there but the rcdata.img file.

By looking around T-Mobile doesn't have ICS firmware yet that I can see so it doesn't look like it is ICS only. So you should be good

Thanks. :) I got there eventually.

I think I might be having more problems with my Sensation. I flashed DarkForest and it booted up fine into the setup wizard. I was going along OK until I forgot my Google password when adding accounts. I changed my password online using my secret question. I heard a text notification sound from my phone telling me that Google had sent a verification code to enter into my phone. I couldn't get at the text without quitting the Google account setup so I cancelled it. I then got a message telling me that the setup wizard had cancelled or crashed or something like that. I think the phone then turned off so I turned it back on. I got the HTC logo and then the Beats logo. The phone doesn't seem to be doing much else. I wondered if maybe the battery was getting low so I've put it back on my dock to charge up. I've got the orange light showing through the grill and every so often the Beats logo appears then disappears again after a few seconds.

Any idea what's going on and what can I do to fix this? I'm hoping these aren't symptoms of a bricked phone! :eek:

Edit: Decided to go for a reinstall of the DarkForest ROM.

Got the Setup wizard message again. It is:

Unfortunately, Setup Wizard has stopped.
