I think i did install another PG58img file before i installed the old stock rom that removed the Clockworkmod recovery, i didnt have clockworkmod recovery after i got the old stock rom and the stock ics. I cant find that PG58 file, but i think it was on a website thet i needed to use the cid getter to get correct file, i have HTC-Y13 cid and mid PG5813000

Thats the file I need. Just not sure where do download it :(

Gonna roll back to 1.50.401.1 and see if this appears for me

It seems odd the Sensation XE is out of line with 3.32.401.103

I am sure I will get the best of both worlds when the chefs here get their hands both, but I am curious.

I've only noticed that the pass-trough Internet USB doesn't works.

Can you confirm ?
[HTC Sensation] buffelen:
use cid getter to find your cid and mid.

I had a rooted and s-off phone with original 2.3 on. I tried to install the new ICS thrue OTA as you did and i got the error, i think the same as you. Then i tried to remove/unroot the phone, i uninstalled clockworkmod and updated with the PG58IMG.ZIP (tha large file) file i found on that page, that was for my phone, i used cid getter to get cid and mid.

Then i installed the ICS beta with Fastboot USB (the beta is RUU and could be started on a computer to flash the phone). Then i wantet to have the stock ICS, but i couldnt install it on the beta ICS so i found that i needed to go back to a old stock rom. That was a RUU file and i startet it on my computer when the phone was on and in charge mode.

After restart it was back to 2.2 i think, then i did run the software update 3-4 times to get to ICS, then the phone wasnt rooted anymore. I then installed clockworkmod recovery (the small PG58IMG.ZIP file) and then installed the new supersuser from clockworkmod recovery screen. Now my phone i s-off and rooted, i havent done anything to get it to s-off after i started all this.
[HTC Sensation] shahkam:
What about rooted users ?? If im rooted can i still do the ota ?

how to root ics on htc sensation?

I just update this ics on my sensation. I had a test stock ics, downgraded to 1.73.401.4 and when turnee it on, i've bene notînd about ics ota update so i update. after that, i tried to root it the old way (gingerbread) but useless.

Any idea about rooting this ics on sensation?

If you're s-on you're stuck until Revolutionary is updated

Same problem, has to press the link, go back and press once more to get to correct site. The wifi is realy bad most of the time. Its also say that mobiledata is off since i left roaming. I have roaming on and wifi on and is in my hous with wifi and get this f*** message all the time. Have HTC released a beta?
[HTC Sensation] FnH84:

Root it on stock before updating to ICS then:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1396959
[HTC Sensation] EddyOS:
I would not follow that guide to the letter seeing as half of it isn't applicable to the Sensation
[HTC Sensation] :
This is what I did to successfully upgrade my HTC Sensation to ICS using OTA.

Before:

Stock HTC ROM, 1.50.401.1

S-Off - By Revolutionary

Rooted - su-bin: 3.0.3.0

Super-CID: 11111111

Recovery: 4Ext, v1.0.0.3 RC3

First I needed the original recovery - extracted this from the RUU-file, v1.50.401.1.

Rebooted the phone to Fastboot and used FastbootCommander to flash the original recovery. Rebooted the phone to Fastboot, Recovery to verify that I had indeed installed the original recovery.

Rebooted the phone, checked for OTA-updates, which it found. Let it run the OTA update (ICS), which it did without any problems.

Then put the CWM PG58IMG.ZIP in the root of the SD-card, rebooted to recovery and let it flash the CWM-recovery.

Rebooted and removed the PG58IMG.zip, rebooted to CWM recovery and flashed the latest Superuser (Superuser: 3.07 - Bin: 3.0.3.2).

Reboot and flashed 4Ext-Recovery from 4Ext Recovery Manager.

That's it - back where I want to be. :D

After:

Stock HTC ROM, 3.32.401.5

S-Off - By Revolutionary

Rooted - su-bin: 3.0.3.2

Super-CID: 11111111

Recovery: 4Ext, v1.0.0.3 RC3

Btw, I live in Denmark.

[HTC Sensation] nailerr:
"Android is upgrading" every boot. Any ideas here?

I'd RUU'd my DE Sensation back to the earliest version I could find, and have S-OFF via the official HTC Method. After applying about 5 OTA updates one after the other I put the ICS OTA file onto the SD Card and performed the update in stock Recovery. All went well, just every reboot it is optimising applications which is bothersome.

This aside I noticed that (also in Insert Coin ROM) if you have anything set as a device administrator, such as Cerberus, you lose access to that menu option in Security settings. But this seems to be a bug in the HTC code.

I should mention that I formatted both the phone and SD card already, this changes nothing. The Upgrading message only starts with the first Market installed application, and then for every download there is one more to optimise at boot.
[HTC Sensation] tehhoe:
I am getting really bored of waiting here :(

S-ON 1.50.401.1 and CID as 111111

Should I be good for when the OTA update ever it come, or should I have it already?

Hard to tell from what people have posted!

Cheers
[HTC Sensation] EddyOS:
Super CID isn't accepted as a valid CID for the OTA, you need HTC__001
[HTC Sensation] minibeast_phone:
With cid HTC__001 should I be getting ota update or is it regional
[HTC Sensation] EddyOS:
Regional at the mo but will go everywhere sooner or later
[HTC Sensation] alexcioko:
Question

Does the update to ICS for the Sensation have the holo theme integrated, and if it does how does it perform?
[HTC Sensation] minibeast_phone:
Cool, thanks for the info, how does it know which region the phone is?
[HTC Sensation] EddyOS:
By the CID
[HTC Sensation] nailerr:
No one else gets the Upgrading on each boot? Sorry to ask twice in so many hours but I have searched google as much as I could. No clear info.
[HTC Sensation] zipvenus:
I have got the same problem wifi does not work and I still do not know how to fix it.
[HTC Sensation] minibeast_phone:
I see so its just a certain Nordic cid that's got it and not the HTC 01 one
[HTC Sensation] liberator72:
I mentioned this before (possibly in another thread though), and after searching a bit more found that it's just part of Android. It's apparently always been there but covered by the boot screen. In ICS however, it replaces the boot screen. A bit weired to say Android is "Upgrading" every time when all it is doing is optimising apps or something, but it's normal by all accounts.
[HTC Sensation] EddyOS:
Doesn't say it on the Nexus
[HTC Sensation] zipvenus:
I got the same message everytime I boot.
[HTC Sensation] nailerr:
Thanks for the replies, I was wondering if it was boot screen related as the Sensation on 2.3.x was VERY slow to boot (if you went by how long it had the HTC splash).

Though I cannot say I remember it happening on the Nexus S. I may be wrong there?
[HTC Sensation] Asmund:
Hope HTC will fix this soon.
[HTC Sensation] skodked:
After last reboot of the phone the problem has been gone so far for me
[HTC Sensation] Keupie:
Same here
[HTC Sensation] stuart0001:
It should only happen once or after a dalvik wipe.

[HTC Sensation] bobsie41:
Super Cid worked fine for me on 3.32.401.5 but didn't on 3.32.401.105.

I have a sensation. :confused:
[HTC Sensation] EddyOS:
Surprised it worked as it's not in the ota file as an acceptable cid
[HTC Sensation] nailerr:
Yeah, I saw that too. It makes me a little concerned that things are not as they should be. Full factory reset and stock image should not be the breeding ground for bugs.

As I said earlier though, this build of ICS is not perfect, not having access to the Device Administrators list is quite annoying for one. Also, no more power saver function.

Rebooted my stock Nexus S, no such messages.
[HTC Sensation] Asmund:
Just talked to HTC chat support about the WIFI problem.

And they didn't know about the problem (or so they said). They told me to take the battery out and re-insert it. If that didn't help. I should try a hard reset.....
[HTC Sensation] ashish.mngr:
Is this the official update? The download link which is given here, does it require rooting the phone? If I install it will i get other updates from HTC as I get in general?
[HTC Sensation] skodked:
And now the problem is back again.
[HTC Sensation] minibeast_phone:
So assuming CIDs of HTC__001 should shortly getting the offical ota ics update what time was the Nordic CID ota released? This may indicate when HTC pushes the button for further regions?
[HTC Sensation] tehhoe:
Cools Eddy.

I changed mine to HTC__001, but I still had S-on. It says its has changed. Just wondering if you think that might be a problem.

One more thing, if anybody has changed there CID should they hard reset after?

Cheers

Edit hmmm tell me what you think

[HTC Sensation] EddyOS:
If you're S-ON then you won't be able to manually flash the OTA as you need to be S-OFF but you should get the update once they start pushing it to the CID
[HTC Sensation] SanityPreservation:
Rooting the ICS

For those concerned about rooting the ICS,

Just root the phone when you are at 1.50.401.1 (before upgrading to 3.32.401.5)

I used revolutionary, installed custom recovery and all, then I flashed the su-file.zip, rebooted and checked that I had root with a few rooted apps.

Then I just flashed stock recovery back (with fastboot) and proceeded with the OTA update to ICS.

Once the update finished, I flashed a custom CWM recovery and then flashed the su-file.zip again.

Rooted.
[HTC Sensation] ttasos:
So we have to go back to S-on if we have S-off, superCID and rooted????

I tried updating mine but no luck.... :(
[HTC Sensation] rkafka:
Asked several times before and found different opinions.

I have now ICS with S-OFF (revolutionaly) so now on 1.27 S-OFF. (path from 1.18 S-ON - switched to S-OFF and manual installation of OTA update zip.

Would be regular OTA update automatically installed by OTA notification or I should check forums and everytime in future manually install new updates ?

Regarding to "Updating Android .." messages did not found solution for Sensation just discussion about clearing out of Dalvik - need root and dangerous .. Hard for me to find out what application was/is wrong to prevent finishing of dalvik cache update...
[HTC Sensation] SanityPreservation:
Manual update = S-OFF, stock recovery, correct CID

"Normal" OTA = S-ON or S-OFF, stock recovery, correct CID

rooted or not rooted does not matter.
[HTC Sensation] rkafka:
Great! .. So now just wait for HTC to prepare their additional update and wait for further OTAs ..

And solution for Android upgrading problem would need some further investigation how to correct it without rooting (maybe some application re-install could solve it ..)

Travelling to Copenhagen for few day, so maybe when HTC will prepare their corection package I will receive it there (CID: HTC_001)
[HTC Sensation] abisdemon:
Hey,

I'm in Denmark and received the update via OTA but it starts and just fails to install the update..the phone is HTC Sensation XE and is S-OFF..Is somebody else with the same problem? Did somebody find a fix for it or we just need to wait till HTC will find out wth is happening?

Thank you
[HTC Sensation] minibeast_phone:
To do the official ota update I believe you need s on
[HTC Sensation] EddyOS:
Do you have CWM installed? If so, there's your problem
[HTC Sensation] SanityPreservation:
... sigh... so many idiots in one place ... do you even bother to read what people here post !?
[HTC Sensation] minibeast_phone:
What? Most ppl said to get the ota update from HTC, ie not manually you need s-on for the install to work once HTC have pushed it to your cid? Correct me if I'm wrong?
[HTC Sensation] SanityPreservation:
You are wrong.

To get a

normal OTA

you need to be on

stock ROM

,

stock recovery

and to have the

correct CID

.

Nothing more, nothing less, rooted, unrooted, s-on, -s-off all work.

Got it now ?
[HTC Sensation] abisdemon:
Can you help me with something?

My phone has Stock ROM all I've done is to unlok with revolutionary and root it with su and that is all. How can I check if I have the correct CID? I uninstalled cwm but still I got the same error when tring to upgrade.

Thank you
[HTC Sensation] SanityPreservation:
You can't "uninstall" CWM, you have to flash another on top.

Make sure you actually have stock recovery.

Try the CID Getter app from Google Play
[HTC Sensation] abisdemon:
I don't have the stock recovery..seems to have Clockwork Mod Recovery v5.0.2.0 how can I flash the stock recovery(where can I find it)?

[HTC Sensation] SanityPreservation:
"but now it tries to upgrade" what do you mean by "it" ?

"starts with old ROM" what do you mean by that ? what did you expect ?

When you see the red exclamation mark press and hold Volume Up and Power button ...
[HTC Sensation] abisdemon:
Done that and now I have just few options:

Reboot system now

Apply update from external storage

Wwwwipe data/factory reset

ipe cache partition

apply update from cache

and down the screen says:

E:Can't open /cache/recovery/command
[HTC Sensation] SanityPreservation:
If you want to manually update the OTA, the:

"Apply update from external storage"

is what you should chose

but this is of course redundant as you want to get the OTA, so just reboot and get into About phone and check if you are able to download the update.
[HTC Sensation] abisdemon:
I've done that..but after few seconds appears a big yellow question mark on the screen and then the phone reboots and no update was performed.
[HTC Sensation] SanityPreservation:

Android 2.3.4
[HTC Sensation] SanityPreservation:
Oh, FFS, and why do you think it went wrong then ... ?

Sorry about that, should have paid more attention to a previous post of yours.

Which ota file are you using? Recovery is the same regardless of RUU
[HTC Sensation] SanityPreservation:
I am on a Mac, but I have Windows as well on it.

But I would still need to download the file, do the extraction and then upload it somewhere for you.

And, I don't care much for that "passive aggressive" type of reverse psychology either ... :p
