mate thx on your replay and +1

but still I can't find that for checking super-cid

and other thing:first I have to flash with your rom and than without superwipe to flash with the rom ICS 3.25??

Thx again
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
For super cid open command prompt or terminal and change directory "cd" to where the adb files are, for me it is "cd C:\adb

Then put phone into hboot mode and connect via USB and then type in cmd "fastboot getvar cid" and your CID will be displayed.

For flashing ICS ROM's it is highly recommended to do a super wipe before flashing the ROM, otherwise weird bugs start appearing ;)
[HTC Sensation] matrix_skopje:
Ok.thx again mate

But what is the use of super-cid I actually have done the steps for super-cid but I don't know what is super-cid for?

+1 again
[HTC Sensation] matrix_skopje:
ok one more question before i flash with this custom rom

in previous post you said that i have to update my firmware first and than to flash with the rom

so i have download the file from the link that you have put in previous post

its about 13.5MB size

now before i past and than flash with this update do i have to wipe something or i can flash/install this update without any wipe?????

Again thx in advance:):)
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Put the PG58IMG.zip file in root of sd card then boot into hboot and let it update, no need for flash just follow instructions in hboot
[HTC Sensation] xps1:
I have rooted my phone. So, do I still need PG58IMG.zip? What does the zip file do? Does the file help me to acquire superuser/root?

There's another post about [GUIDE][FEB.03.12] How to flash ARHD 6.2.x series | ICS firmware update, http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1472298 which requires supercid but your post does not require. Why?

[HTC Sensation] matrix_skopje:

Firmware from 3.24.401.1 & 3.25.401.101 RUU, so it comprises both firmware 3.24 and 3.25?

Thanks in advance
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Firmware for both 3.24.401.1 and 3.25.401.101 are both the same
[HTC Sensation] tsktsk999:
thanks for the quick reply.

can i ask, previously i'm on arhd 4.1.2 and it comes with recovery 4ext, will superwipe remove the recovery? Do i need to install the recovery 4ext again?
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Super wipe will not wipe recovery but you are advised to update to the recovery to the latest :)

[HTC Sensation] matrix_skopje:
mate i have brick my phone after i was try to update my firmware downloaded from the link you have post before

the thing is that i cant even restore my backup

i mean i can restore from recovery but after restore is done when i press reboot button phone goes in to infinite loop

please tell me what i have to do

please again help me
[HTC Sensation] Reginald2:
Yeah, I get the same thing. I think you need to downgrade the firmware to restore the backup. At least that's what I'm thinking.
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
GingerBread ROM's will NOT work with the new firmware. with the new firmware you MUST have an ICS ROM
[HTC Sensation] Hutchy1:
I know it says it'll take a while for first boot, but how long is that? Been stuck on the Beats Audio screen for about 5 minutes here..
[HTC Sensation] dgenx210:
Same here. I've already flashed a couple of times already.
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Between 5-10 mins.

If it doesnt advance past that then something has gone wrong, check MD5 Sums or try another ROM
[HTC Sensation] dgenx210:
Thanks for the reply. I've confirmed that the MD5 matches, I'm dl'ing non-beats but since my net is slow, I'll try flashing beats ROM.
[HTC Sensation] carlowise:
hey guys sorry for stupid question I'm reading this guide 10 times. Why should I have to take sd card out and back in when installing this fw. Is it possible to have fw on one sd card and when update is finished shot down phone and put another one with rom and super wipe script.??

and when the firmware update is finished? so update started and after it's done go to bootloader and let it finish. after that can I turn off phone and change sd cards and continue to install rom?

THANX

---------- Post added at 03:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:48 PM ----------

anyone???

please

why do I need reinsert sd card?

2. Select Recovery Mode and then quickly & swifly re-insert your SD Card.
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Re insert sd card is necassary otherwise when you put phone into HBOOT to select recovery it will detect firmware file on the card and re flash the firmware over again
[HTC Sensation] alanapone:
Hi everyone. I have a small problem I hope you can help me with.

I've got everything ready to do my first ever rom flash and have read through the guide a few times to make sure I understand what to do etc. I have come up with a problem though...

The md5sum when I download the radio is coming up as: 94b395e0bc0ffb10096876e93b04840e

But the link say's it should be: 833a9ece6c63f0237f34ddde99961910

HELP!!

I've downloaded the file a few times and everytime it comes up with the same checksum. I don't want to risk flashing it if the chksum is wrong.

Also, Do I need to update my HBoot or install 4Ext to do all this correctly?

Any help or ideas?
[HTC Sensation] alanapone:
Well, I found the other version of this thread and managed to get it all flashed up. Looks really good so far and I'm really glad I didn't brick my phone!

I do seem to have very low signal strength though... Any ideas what would cause this?
[HTC Sensation] Alienator9191:
maybe bad reception btw try ARHD 6.3.0? and use base 3.30 it has a better radio for me:D

[HTC Sensation] CursedBat:
It's a bad download from a bad link, have you tried redownloading it again recently?
[HTC Sensation] alanapone:
Yeah I tried it about 10 times. I gave up and used the non-noon version of this thread which has the radio built into the ROM. All done and I'm loving ics so far! Although my signal seems to be a little worse than it used to be. I'll keep an eye on it though and see if it improves.

Thanks for the quide, Ive done everything:

Ive also done everything in this guide apart from flash the radio..

What benift will this give me?

I flashed the Android Revolution HD 6.3.1 XE Rom, this was where the confusion for the radio kicked in..

"With 6.4.x ROMs I strongly recommend flashing 11.69.3504.00U_11.22.3504.07_M radio"

As i installed 6.3.1 XE should i still install that radio?

2nd question, during the install of the rom is asks your phone is sensation 4g, should i have clicked yes? As i clicked no as I'm orange uk not tmobile US..

Thanks in advance..

At the moment phone seems to be fine.. :)

Thanks a million for this guide, i followed it and now my phone is running ARHD :)

A question, where do i thank you so it shows in the thanks meter?
[HTC Sensation] _DavidWebb:
Hi, I'm trying this out because I am tired of MIUI...I have been reading a few of these guides for a while now. Getting S-Off and root was all pretty easy, and flashing the CM7 and MIUI were easy too, but this ARHD ICS seams a lot tougher. Anyhow, I'm ready to jump in now! My FIRST question will be, under Preparation, step 3, it says d/l the latest 3.30 FW, which I did, and the file name was PG58IMG.zip...then under step 6, it says, d/l the latest 6.3.x XE, and when I clicked the one I wanted(ICS w/ Beats), the file name is exactly the same, PG58IMG.zip

Am I confusing something here? Are those supposed to be different?

Edit: Nevermind, I seemed to have clicked something wrong. But I'm sure I'll be back with another question! Hope not though.

Hallo out there, I'm quite "noobish" i suppose, but I really tried fo find a solution for my problem by searching posts and threads, but either I didn't search in correct terms or I simply didn't recognice the answer as that... ... so sorry for that.

If somebody could give me a hint where I could start to solve my Problem, I would be very happy...

After I updated my Sensation XE to 4.0.3 with sense3.6 (the regular ROM from HTC) I lost my rootrights, which i gave to my beloved device in January, by using revolutionary and so on...

a few Days ago I tried to reroot my device because non-root suxx if you tasted freedom once...

and here starts my problem...

Phone is still S-off since I didn't change it back.

HBOOT is 1.27.0000

RADIO 11.22.3504.07_M

and my sid is also changed to 11111111

but i have no ****ing root, and therefor i'm not able to use cwm or any other recovery... at least I do not know how...

HOW can I gain root?

or HOW can I flash a rooted ROM?

sorry, if this may not be exactly on topic... i'm just a stupid helpless noob... :-/

Edit: problem solved... Thanks anyway
[HTC Sensation] tk_xda:
Thanks for the guide. I have a few questions. It seems that I successfully installed the required firmware and Android Revolution HD 6.6.3 XE ROM, but I see a few discrepencies with what I expected to see.

The ROM, in its main thread was advertised to include the "Updated faux123 kernel to 005 Build 3", but when I check the software info on my phone, it says the kernal is 3.0.16-gda3fdfc htc-kernal@u18000-build-144#1. Why am I seeing this? I want the faux kernal. Do I need to flash that separately?

Also, during the ROM install, the prompts for choosing HTC Sensation 4G and for Bravia did not appear. Instead, I saw messages indicating Cancelling scroll by for Bravia, and for HQ Camera Mod by NODO-GT. How do I enable those options now that the install is finished> I performed the flash of the ROM with the version of 4EXT that had been provided with Android Revolution HD 3.6.11, the ROM that I was upgrading from.

Thanks
[HTC Sensation] trkaaa:
choices during installation only appear if your Custom recovery is 4EXT because ARHD Rom choices are built using it

when you installed the ARHD Rom , it installed 4EXT recovery without prompting you , so if you run the Rom installation again now it will show you the choices this time
[HTC Sensation] tk_xda:
Are you saying the 4EXT that came with the old ROM I had, Android Revolution HD 3.6.11, was too old to let me input my choices? (They just scrolled by marked cancelled)

Are you saying the kernal was to be a choice too, and that I could have chosen either HTC or faux kernal if I had a newer 4EXT?

And all I have to do is flash the ROM again, as I should now have the correct 4EXT version?

Thanks.
[HTC Sensation] maoyni:
bricked phone

:(

i think i bricked my phone....

S offed it

installed CMR

but during rooting it, i was smart enough to paste the firmware update

and the rooting file

(su-2.3.6.3-efgh-signed.zip + PG58IMG.zip)

when i turn on my phone it just gets stuck on htc logo and turn on and off over and over again

im wondering what should i do to solve this, waiting.... thanks
[HTC Sensation] Retardz N'Liarz:
You're not bricked as long that you're able to get into HBoot.

If you can get into recovery then just flash the rooting file from the recovery itself (if you haven't already flashed it), reboot into bootloader, re-enter recovery and flash the rom you wish.
[HTC Sensation] trkaaa:
flashing SU will not cause boot loop ,

flashing PG58IMG.zip

alone

does that " flashing is from bootloader "

in both cases of upgrade or downgrade , you have to install two items together " the suitable firmware and the suitable Rom to the firmware "

in your case , if the installed PG58IMG.zip is ICS Firmware " check it in bootloader for hboot version " , if it says 1.27 then you installed ICS firmware

to solve that and upgrade to ICS Rom do the following :

latest ICS firmware is 3.32

after flashing the firmware , remove PG58IMG.zip from SD Card and boot into bootloader then go to recovery

copy the ICS custom rom and super wipe to your sd card

super wipe first , then install Suitable ICS ROM

example : if for example you installed firmware 3.32 according to your cid , then choose an ICS Rom that fits that firmware , i recommend ARHD 6.6.4

or to solve that and stay on your existing GB Rom and stop the boot loop do

either

of the following :

remove PG58IMG.zip from SD Card , and put firmware 1.17 on Sd card then

super wipe , then flash firmware 1.17 , device should boot normally now , and if it doesn't then flash a GB Custom Rom

or instead of flashing firmware 1.17 , flash your GB RUU directly " you will loose SU , Custom recovery , Custom unlocked hboot " in this case
[HTC Sensation] T-Macgnolia:
Yes the RUU or a PM58IMG.zip will remove the quote unquote custom Hboot and replace it with a stock Hboot. But it will not re lock or cause S-off to revert to S-on.
[HTC Sensation] trkaaa:
any stock hboot is a locked hboot , firmware 1.17and 3.32 are Revolutionary unlocked hboots

locked means they will not allow write commands like fastboot flash .....

re-lock or unlock is for htc dev method " which is not needed or

even should be used with S-OFF devices

" and he is S-OFF and will stay S-OFF after flashing the RUU but with a locked stock hboot
[HTC Sensation] crimsonedge03:
This is my first time flashing a custom ROM so I don't want to take any chances.

I couldn't achieve S-OFF on my phone using Revolutionary because I have HBoot 1.18. Instead, I used HTCDev method to unlock the bootloader.

I've rooted my phone and I'm running 4XtRecovery.

Can I flash ARHD or do I need to gain S-OFF first?
[HTC Sensation] ganeshp:
Soff will work for you as your hboot is 1.18 and revolutionary supports it.

Maybe soff failed for you because of zeng root failure.. Then you need to use tacoroot

Excellent noob proof guide on how to do soff for your case is here

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1541087

Edit: Btw you need to first relock your bootloader before trying soff again

To relock command

fastboot oem lock (i guess plz Chk it)

[HTC Sensation] T-Macgnolia:
Sorry some how I had missed this post for a day or two some how.

Thanks for the explanation, but it was not needed as I already know all of this. I was just pointing out that the way you had it worded a uninformed noob could take it as just flashing the RUU would take care of re locking the bootloader and it will not do that. You can only downgrade your firmware if you are S-off, part of the firmware is the Hboot/bootloader. So Running the stock RUU will not re lock the bootloader unless you are S-off. And if you are S-off this does not matter anyway because you have read write permissions for all of your partitions. I just do not want people to get confused. No offence intended.

[Droid 2 General] spiderman905:
Hi everyone, I been reading on this forum for a quiet some time now but never felt the need to create an account to post any questions. because i always find informative threads that help me solved my problems but not this time.

i been helping my friend to tried to install a custom rom on his D2, i wouldnt say im very experienced, but i have done it to couple other phones including a droid x so im kind of familiar with what to do.

so i rooted it, bootstrapped, using rom manager to install cwm, then bootstrapped to cwm recovery, from there wipe data / cache, then install zip from sd.

i tried with cyanogen mod first, but it didnt work, it would get stuck on the m logo after rom is installed, so i sbfed it and repeat the whole process and installed the liberty this time but same thing happened again, so i repeated the whole process again and i tried liquid smooth just now, and it still didnt work.

is there something im missing?
[Droid 2 General] Albinoman:
You need to make sure the phone is on gb. Also wipe data/cache/dalvik once before you flash and twice after.
[Droid 2 General] spiderman905:
so it has to be 2.3 and above? the system say its 2.2 right now, but the sbf file i used its "vbz a955 2.3.20_1ff" so i assumed it was on gb. is there specific version of gb i need to upgrade to?

thanks for the suggestion

To flash cm7 or any gingerbread rom you have to first be on the ota 2.3.3

thanks alot hope if works
[Droid 2 General] Albinoman:
The best was to update is to sbf to stock 2.2 then accept the ota update. Then once you update you can root, bootstrap then install cm7.

[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] cliver:
I have tried installing a wm7 rom on my hd2 but it kept on rebooting.

I belive that may have been down to incomaptibility of my SD card, a trancend 16GB Micro SDHC class 6. So I tried a Sandik 2GB micro SD. That seemed to get further but locked up before the splash screen.

I have since tried to reformat the SD cards but can't get them to show up in a card reader on 3 different machines.

I have flashed the HD2 back to a stock rom and ot also doesn't see the sd card.

As I can't get a windows or a Linux machine to see them I am at a loss as to how I can get them back.

Have I ruined them or is there any way I can get them back to life?

I have green lense camera(SOC) and I have already installed WajkIUI.

Now i want to reflash again full sbf (JRDNEM_U3_3.4.2_179-002_DEBLUR_SIGN_SIGNED_UCAJRDNEMARAB1B80AA03A.0R_PDS03C_USAJRDNFRYORTCEE_P016_A016_HWp3_Service1FF.sbf), then root my phone, install Snd-init and then i would like to install MS2 Ginger NG 3.0.

My Questions:

1. How can I install MS2 3.0? Just like 2.1 for example?

2. Which fixed sbf should I install?

3. When should I install fixed sbf? Before or after installing MS2?

Thanks in advance for helping me. ;)
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] premaca:
Once you install 2.1 through NAND backup, then 3.0 can be installed on top of 2.1 with just restroing system. We dont need to flash fixed sbf in that case.

I was running 2.1, wipe data/cache, wipe dalvik, and restored 3.0 system and rebooted. Have been with 3.0 from the day its released.
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] devil1406:

But I would like to install clean 3.0 build. Without installing anything except clean full sbf.

So, what should I do?
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] premaca:
I don't think clean and stable ms2g 3.0 is released yet. The nandroid backup contains just the system partition which should be used to restore on top of already running ms2.1. For the stable 3.0 we should wait for some more time. I have been with 3.0NG from the day its released and its quite good.
