TY for continuing to work on this Hanson. I need this to hold me over until the TMO SG3 or GNote are released. I have the Sensation 4G with the new ICS update.
[HTC Sensation] Derkek:
I hate to be off topic, but is that icon on the program the former team avolition logo?

I find it odd that you would use that.
[HTC Sensation] hasoon2000:
It's not. It's the icon from the program I use to make the toolkit.

If you S-off your device go to this thread to see several methods to SIM unlock your device for free. But you have to be S-off.
[HTC Sensation] pyrotec77:
Do you know of a way to do S-off with Hboot 1.27?

Hi,

You will have to use Juopunutbear to S-off. There is a couple of guide threads and two tools that can help you achieve this.

[HTC Sensation] Rushed:
I really like what you are doing but could you also explain what you are doing. What set of commands you used? It isn't that i don't like your work it is just that it is so short written. No explanation or whatsoever.

http://www.xda-developers.com/andro...on-of-technology-is-this-a-good-or-bad-thing/

It may be a good idea for new people to see what they are up to, what are the cons and the pro's etc. If they do know what they are doing the can contribute to others and if you aren't around here anymore they still know what to do :)
[HTC Sensation] hasoon2000:
I understand. You see what is happening with the CMD prompt since it shows you everything. If users want, they can open the .bat scripts with notepad and see what's in it.
[HTC Sensation] waterballoon:
JESUS thank u SO MUCH I can't express how much this will help.. downloading it right now, thanks so much again!!!
[HTC Sensation] hasoon2000:
Glad to see you're excited lol. Im updating this soon. I updated 6 of 8. I have this and the rezound left. It'll look a lot better and cleaner.
[HTC Sensation] waterballoon:
i have a question though. after the Unlock_code.bin (i'm using S-OFF Sensation XE), has been placed in the folder, I hit "Boot Into Recovery" right?

there after, I should install CWM am i right?
[HTC Sensation] hasoon2000:
You are already S-Off'd. You don't need to unlock your bootloader. Just flash a recovery :)

P.S. Let's vote this back to 5 stars!
[HTC Sensation] lileddy305:
i need helpppppppp!! pleaseee

i did everything step by step but when i used the revolutionary method i got an error saying that it failed. i got the s-off tho and it changed my hboot too but i cant seem to get a recovery :/ idk why please help
[HTC Sensation] hasoon2000:
Did you flash a recovery...?
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

Try to flash THIS ONE

:)
[HTC Sensation] lileddy305:
is that supposed to give me the recovery?

n no it failed right before it was supposed to ask for the recovery. but i somehow managed to get s-off on my phone and my hboot changed as well
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

The one I suggested is recovery 5.0.2.0

Did you try that?

:)
[HTC Sensation] lileddy305:
yes it worked perfectly! thank you so much im off to installing superuser for perm root and installing a rom to see if it goes perfectly. THANK YOU SO MUCH!

btw just for curiosity do you happen to know why does that happen? did i do something wrong?
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

You did nothing wrong.

Sometimes it takes more than one go.

Sometimes you just need a different version.

There is no certainty with this.

:)
[HTC Sensation] lileddy305:
got it, well thanks for you help. i appreciate it

:)
[HTC Sensation] waterballoon:
soorry i typed wrongly, i Am S-ON.

is CWM safe/reliable?

---------- Post added at 11:28 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:54 AM ----------

i followed ur toolkit, up to the step of putting "Unlock_code.bin" into the data folder.

then it was missing from the toolkit, but i think i had to do type this on cmd?

fastboot unlock token unlock_code.bin

hit enter. and it didn't work. what is wrong? rebooting into recovery also gave me a red triangle. i'm S-ON sensation XE with HBOOT 1.27.XXX
[HTC Sensation] ridder215215:
Hey!

I have a Sensation and I would like to install CWM. My device is S-off and rooted, but I had to use another way because my hboot version is 1.27.XXX. Is it still possible to use this tool to install CWM?
[HTC Sensation] T-Macgnolia:
Yes you can still use this tool to install CWM.
[HTC Sensation] twoxa:
So basically this rom is CyanogenMod9 with Apex Launcher...
[HTC Sensation] hasoon2000:
??

This is a tool, not a ROM. I think you are in the wrong thread lol
[HTC Sensation] T-Macgnolia:
If you are talking about the Paranoid Android ROM in my sig then no it is more than CM9 with the Apex launcher. You have the full tablet UI with this ROM as well as being to set the DPI for each app and pretty much everything on the ROM. as weel as a couple more Paranoid tweaks that are not in any other ROM. Sorry for off topic, if you have any other questions PM me.
[HTC Sensation] mhuggins:
ok i tried this and i keep getting this

remote unlock token check failed

any help on this i tried to even do it using the htc dev page but it says the same thing..... PLEASE HELP
[HTC Sensation] hasoon2000:
Update your phone's software. You have an old HBOOT that is not supported by HTCDev. Alternatively, you can do S-Off with your HBOOT. It's your choice.
[HTC Sensation] mhuggins:
im on ics update with hboot 1.27 what else do i need to do

edit here is my software number

3.32.531.xxxxxxx

is that what i need to be on cause it says im current
[HTC Sensation] hasoon2000:
Does your phone have S-Off? Do you know how to check it?
[HTC Sensation] mhuggins:
im still s-on this is what i was trying before i rooted or anything esle cause everybody says to unlock bootloader from htc dev....but that is what i get everytime
[HTC Sensation] alainalemany:
Problems finishing with the toolkit.

First I get my S-OFF thanks to Revolutionary method.

Well I followed every step, I have my S-OFF properly. Next I need to install CWM 5.0.2.0, but when I click on it, it tries to pass it and finally brings me an error FAILED (remote: not allowed). So I have no idea what's going wrong here.

Also the toolkit gives 2 options, go with Revolutionary method or with HTCdev. My question is, if I did Revolutionary method do I have unlocked my bootloader? I'm asking that because in order with the FAILED (remote: not allowed) error when trying to install CWM 5.0.2.0 I'm guessing recovery can't be installed because my bootloader is locked?

One way or another, I just need to have CWM installed on my phone, please tell me what am I doing wrong here.

Best regards.
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

Try THIS VERSION OF 5.0.2.0

Try it several times if necessary.

Once you have Revolutionary,you do not need HTC DEV method.

Your bootloader is now unlocked.

:)
[HTC Sensation] alainalemany:
First of all thank so much for the fast answer.

I followed every step to get to it:

Move your recovery image to the same directory as fastboot (in my case C:\android-sdk\platform-tools\) and navigate there with an open cmd prompt. Then put the phone is Fastboot USB mode:

Unplug USB

Turn the device off

Hold volume down button (HOLD IT) and press power

Hboot will start.

Wait for sdcard scan to complete.

Plug in USB cord connected to the computer

Press power ONCE and Fastboot USB mode starts

I renamed your recovery image to recovery.img and prompt

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

The thing is my friend that no matter how many times I try, always get:

OKAY [ 1.152s]
writing 'recovery'...
FAILED (remote: not allowed)
finished. total time: 1.177s

So I'm a little lost here.
[HTC Sensation] T-Macgnolia:
Try this recovery, it is not Clockwork Mod Recovery it is 4 EXT Recovery. Place the file on the root of your SD card and then boot to Hboot. It will ask you if you want to flash the file, press the volume up to confirm and let it flash then press the power button to reboot.
[HTC Sensation] alainalemany:
I was doing it wrong...

Thanks to your explanation I understand the logical.
[HTC Sensation] Rodriguez92:
Hey guys is there any way to s-off the sensation without using the wire trick? my HBOOT is 1.27xxx ... the wire trick is extremely difficult and i think ive broken my sd card already..
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

At the moment,it is the only way.

There are plenty of guides.

Please check the link in my signature.

[HTC Sensation] e495957:
Hi. I have Hboot 1.18 with stock HTC Sense Android 2.3.3

I want to install CM9. Do I just follow each step on this tool and then put CM9 on my SD card and install through CWM? Or do I need a special ICS bootloader?

Thanks!
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

Use the revolutionary part of the tool to s-off

Install the root and recovery(4EXT)

Then.

You need to upgrade your firmware .

Follow THIS THREAD

Just replace ARHD with CM9

:)
[HTC Sensation] e495957:
Thanks!

Can I install CWM instead? I like it better. Also I'm assuming I'd start at step 3 on that thread you linked (I'll just use CWM's built in backup?)
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

Of course you can flash what you like.

Check HERE if you have any problems.

And,yes,start at 3

[HTC Sensation] Deegan87:
I'm having trouble flashing a recovery with this tool. While trying to flash CWM Touch, I keep getting an error writing 'recovery'... failed (remote: not allowed)

I'm using the same USB port that I used to gain S-OFF and root with, so I doubt that's the problem.

What should I do?

PS, I did use ROM Manager to flash regular CWM and install CM9 RC2, but I still was this tool to work.
[HTC Sensation] ganeshp:
you didnt have ENG-HBOOT aka juopunutbear/revolutionary HBOOT ..which allows the fastboot flash commands ...thats why it failed for you
[HTC Sensation] Deegan87:
But I installed the modified jb HBOOT when I was prompted, is this to what you are referring? How would I fix it?

[HTC Sensation] plnghiepla:
Can we use this tool for HTC Sensation SE?

Thanks!
[HTC Sensation] bteljuice:
Do we still need to use the wire method to S-off or root(Forgot which one)
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

The wire trick is needed to s-off with hboot of 1.23 or higher.

Otherwise ,with hboot of 1.18 or less,you can still use Revolutionary.

:)

Video has been added to the OP!
[HTC Sensation] Konstigt:
Tried using it to root my fully up-to-date EU Sensation (hboot 1.27/SW 3.33.401.6).

After the phone rebooted the upgrade icon appeared for a while only to be replaced with the red exclamation mark. Had to pull the battery.

Next boot was OK.

Tried su from adb shell but it didn't exists so I guess it failed.

Was there some prerequisite that I was unaware of?

I am s-off since before.
[HTC Sensation] hasoon2000:
If you had the red exclamation point, it sounds like you weren't on a factory ROM. Restore your phone to the Stock RUU.

Then, you'd need to flash an HBOOT (either revolutionary or juopunutbear)

After that, then flash a recovery and then use the perm root option.
[HTC Sensation] Konstigt:
I am/was indeed on a stock RUU.

It seems my s-off isn't really s-off after all?! I was fully rooted with s-off before but then I installed a stock RUU because I needed to leave the phone to service.

Now I tried flashing ClockworkMod recovery manually (Phone > Fastboot && ./fastboot flash recovery recovery.img) but I got write failed.

I'm not sure what the easiest way is for me to install CM9. I would like to avoid unlocking with htcdev.com because I know I'm gonna leave the phone to service soon again (broken speaker for the 2nd time).
[HTC Sensation] wiswis:
My sensation is soff but I never used htc unlock its also running the OTA ics update. My question is can I flash recovery like this or do I have to htc unlock and then flash

Sent from my Htc doubleshot running JB
[HTC Sensation] Deegan87:
You need an HBOOT that will allow you to flash a custom recovery and then flash a custom ROM or root stock. Search for the firmware on this forum.

clicky
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

If you are s-off,then you can use this tool to flash recovery.

You do not need to use ANY HTC unlock.

:)
[HTC Sensation] hasoon2000:
This is correct. You need another HBOOT. Just flash Juopuntbear's HBOOT. Then you can flash the recovery, etc.

Sent From My HTC Amaze 4G via Someone's Room ;)
[HTC Sensation] wiswis:
I flash that firmware after getting root , correct? For now I just need root so can I use this tool to get recovery and instal SU
[HTC Sensation] Deegan87:
Flash the firmware so you can flash a proper recovery, which will allow you to flash SU or a custom ROM.

Be sure you make a backup with the custom recovery before you flash SU.
[HTC Sensation] wiswis:
You're saying I need a fikrmware change TO flash. recovery? If so what firmware do I need and will that firmware work on stock?
[HTC Sensation] Deegan87:
Download the firmware/HBOOT here.

The stock ROM will work with one of the HBOOT/firmwares I linked to, but the stock HBOOT/firmware will not allow you to flash a custom recovery using fastboot (even if you have S-OFF.) The toolkit this thread is based around uses fastboot to flash recoveries. Make sure you choose a firmware compatible with your ROM's version of android, be it GB or ICS.

I had this problem a month ago when I first unlocked my Sensation using this method. I had root and could install recoveries from within the ROM, but not using fastboot commands. I had to update to 3.33 firmware, and now I can flash using this toolkit all day long.
[HTC Sensation] robgee789:
hey guys i used this to root my sensation xe last night and it worked perfectly great work mate :)
[HTC Sensation] robgee789:
i used this to unlock my boot loader, root and flash 4ext but i tried to get into fast boot by holding the volume down button and the power button but nothing happens untill i release the buttons then it just boots normally?

edit: i didnt take my battery out first and it works perfect if i take my battery out the do it lol
[HTC Sensation] hasoon2000:
Take out the battery. Put it back in and then press the buttons.

P.S. you don't need a million question marks. 1 is fine.

yep only sensation and its variants (4g,xe )
[HTC Sensation] hasoon2000:
Any updates on recoveries? Any new releases? Any mods here that you want added?
[HTC Sensation] ganeshp:
just a small suggestion ..why dont you remove the "4G" from the name ? or add XE to it too :)

hi there hasoon and thank you for your hard work

but i have problem

I use revolutionary to S-off then i register at htc dev like u said (the htcdev is damm slow as hell and not function -_-)

but when i try to get token ID the phone reboot into Hboot menu and in command windows said ...INFO[ERR] Command error !!!

what did i do wrong?

P.S. sorry for my bad english
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

I thought that if you were s-off,there was no need to visit HTC.

S-off allows you to do anything to your phone.

HTC no longer need to be involved...

:)
[HTC Sensation] zero7177:
Oh Thanks a lot sir

so do i have to unlocked bootloader? I want to install Android Revolution HD ROM what i need to do next? Install Recovery then Install rom (wipe everything) ?
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

What is your hboot?

:)
[HTC Sensation] Burn2Hell:
This is maybe a stupid question:

Can i use this tool to unlock the bootloader? Yes i know.

But can i relock it again witouth that HTC sees that the bootloader was unlocked? (i did read the internet that they can see it)

Is there an other way to unlock it? Nevermind got my answerd, there is some chineese but he sells the idea.

Someone know how long it will take that people unlock the bootloader witouth htcdev.com?
[HTC Sensation] zero7177:

Hi,

There is a perfect guide for you HERE

i know lol ..but ppl come and ask "is this for 4G only ? it wont work for regular sensation? and XE ?" *facepalm*
[HTC Sensation] Koenhen:
I'm happy with your toolkit. rooted my phone and tried two different ROM's now. I just installed ViperS 1.1.0 ROM and it's way better than stock!

My Sensation works perfect now, looks thhe part and is totally lag-free :good:

Grtz and thanks !

Im not 100% I flashed new ROM during first charge cycle LOL, i remember Vodafone boot screen but I had hd2 and dhd visa branded so I've got the boot image in my head on the same sized screen LOL I don't remember Vodafone music app tho

****!!! Bricked
[HTC Sensation] bobsie41:
Now send it to HTC repair! Assuming there is no response on your phone to anything i don't believe HTC can tell what is on your phone.

I totally bricked my phone some time ago trying to return to s-on so sent it in to repair telling them that the phone wouldn't boot after appling an ota. I had it back within the week with a new motherboard and no bill. ;)

a guy from a gsm service told me that galaxy nexus bootloader register anything i change to my phone and told me even if i reflash STOCK firmware from google they`ll find out that i changed kernel etc and will void my warranty

i used a programe named stabilitytest from the market and after 1 hour my cpu temp is 43degree and the gpu bench has massive frame drops from 20 :| fps to 1-2
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Kalavere:
That's bull****, he's just trying to scare you. If you think you have a problem, re-flash a stock ROM and kernel, re-lock the phone and send it back.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
Don't think your phone is getting laggy because its getting warm. You probably have some serious problem happening that's causing your CPU to be overworked, causing the phone to be both laggy and warm.

This is false.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] burner07:
ok well the phone is not hot all time... when i use an intensive app like antutu quadrant or a game then after a few minutes it starts lagging...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
You should be flashing back to completely stock to see if its a user-created problem or a hardware fault... That's what I would do.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] burner07:
so i use Galaxy Nexus ToolKit 5.3 then i flash latest google stock firmware? im used to odin:)))) then i relock bootloeader
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RogerPodacter:
You dont have to relock the bootloader...just load stock rom and test.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] burner07:
ok so i went to stock rom did a quadrant and an antutu when the phone was cold , i did several tests and when the phone started heating all scores lowered an example:antutu cpu float 1631 to 900 800

i used a stabillity test app and cpu heats to 45 degree very laggy should i go to change it? gta laggs insane and sometimes is smooth
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] watsonism:
i would flash to stock- completely (not rooted, no data on phone) so it's like you're unboxing it for the first time. if it heats up, you've got a hardware issue and should send it back.

or just send it back and get a new one that's shinier than yours.
