[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ninja219384:
Hi all, today i woke up and found ICS was available for download for my Sensation XE, i downloaded the update and started the install but on the reboot is sits on a little android screen with an ! inside a tri-angle, i checked online and found this would be down to the face my phone is rooted so i started lookin for an option to unroot my phone to allow me to update everything to ICS.

I have looked at the UNROOT any android device topic and had problems finding the "stock recovery" or Recovery.img.

How the hell can i find this and unroot my phone? I have already run a full hard reset but still cannot update my phone :(

flash the stock rom..
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alexander7567:
The good part is not all stock rooms are available. That is RUU's anyway. I wanted to unroot my phone a long time ago, but come to find out you cant unless the RUU have been leaked. And since my phone company is small and local (Bluegrass Cellular), I cannot find any available for them.

So it depends on your carrier.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ninja219384:
Im with 02 in the UK which is one of the biggest in europe/uk.

I did some research and came across a guide for unrooting the sensation 4g with links to ROMs: www(dot)filefactory(dot)com/f/c87a2330449af512/

Within this link i found this firmware:

RUU_Pyramid_O2_UK_1.50.206.1_R_Radio_10.58.9035.00U_10....

Now my question is, would this work for my Sensation XE? Or is it just for the Sensation 4G?

HTC Sense 4.5 Concept – Premium UI for Android 4.0 or Even Jelly Bean?

HTC concepts and now he did something different – an interface design. He created the HTC Sense 4.5 render you can see below, a very beautiful attempt to imagine what the future version of the HTC UI will be like. Right now we’re officially at version 4.0 that complements Android 4.0 and I imagine that version 4.5 will either fit Jelly Bean or an ICS upgrade.

Moving on to the rendered interface, you can see that the ring lock mechanism is still here and we also get a brand new Google Assistant voice companion like Siri. Unless I’m mistaking, this one can even interpret your gestures and face, which is very cool. We can access the voice command from the lock screen and HTC Sense 4.5 integrates folders in the dock area of the screen, a very clean and pretty standard weather widget and a new UI for the socializing feature… or is it the Facebook app?

I can see that there’s also a tile view for applications present on the phone and that the 7 home screens were kept. The experience is very clean and button sliders have been changed to a combo of grey and green, that together with the black background make out the HTC brand identity. What do you think this interface concept needs and what are you most happy about in it? Nice notification area by the way, with the weather and Facebook integration.

1. This is the worst attempt at mocking up a new sense interface I have ever seen, it is horrid!

2. Don't post crap like this in development.
[HTC Sensation] Rumball:
As this has absolutely nothing to do with development it should be moved to General section. Can only guess that this is a troll by suggesting in the topic title that it is a ROM currently in development...or maybe you actually think these are real?

Also...for future reference...it is spelt SenSe not Sence

Fail
[HTC Sensation] lulonen:
Absolutly wrong section but topic could be quite interesting.

...forecating the future of sense ui ;-)
[HTC Sensation] sjknight413:
No this couldn't be quite interesting.

and this definitely isn't the future of sense ui, it is just an extremely crappy mockup that somebody who obviously has no background in design has made.
[HTC Sensation] Shidapu:
very confusing, is this concept art? if so, this has no meaning to be in the Dev section, if this is a soon to be released rom, im all ears... otherwise, close and move to general.

[HTC ChaCha] ceminino:
Hi guys,

I have no idea why during calls sometimes the touchscreen activates itself which results in pressing mute or hold by accident... this is really annoying, i have to keep the phone far from my ear to avoid this. Anyone knows how to stop this?

Thanks!
[HTC ChaCha] jotekman:
My Wife has the same problem... Anyone have any idea? or how to just kill the mute and hold buttons in the dialer or render them inoperable?
[HTC ChaCha] Flexmaen:
Solution: I used Cheekey Hang Up Gard. This is free and works fine for me. It locks the screen during a call unless you press the back-button.

The problem with hitting keys by mistake happens to all the people who do not press the phone so close to the ear. In this case screen might activate so that you can hit some button with your ear.
[HTC ChaCha] jotekman:
You, sir, are a gentleman and a scholar! That is EXACTLY the type of solution I was looking for, both elegant, simple, AND free. I searched for a solution before posting, but apparently my android and google-fu is not as advanced as yours. I bow before a greater power (bow).

Thank you!

[HTC ChaCha] ceminino:
thanks for the reply, though since I asked the question I managed to spill half a glass of water on my phone... :eek:
[HTC ChaCha] Flexmaen:
Do alternative markets like 1mobile work there? There is a program called "Don't Hang Up" (which I didn't try). But I attached Cheeky Hang Up Guard here.

Oh... I fear there won't be any software solution for that problem... If you are fast enough you could try cleaning it with distilled water and only use the phone again when it is 100% dried. However water might also come to some places where it is hard to get it gone again.
[HTC ChaCha] ceminino:
well it worked partially for a while... pity it was a nice phone!
[HTC ChaCha] Lucky-Casper:
The problem happens when you tilt the phone past a certain degree. I think it may be the flip for speaker mode. I'm going to shut it off and see if it happens anymore.

[HTC One X] Tinderbox (UK):
Have a look at the guide below.

http://www.htc.com/uk/help/htc-one-x/
[HTC One X] L1l17h:
I think the poster meant that regardless of which sound you set as notification sound, it will still use the default notification sound. Just to clarify, even though it wasn't necessary as I've owned an htc android phone before, I did read the guide as i was stumped too. I can select any custom sound for notifications, it just doesn't use it. It's different for email notifications though, that will use the sound I set without problems... Anyone have a fix? It was like this since it first came out of the box.

Happened to me on an earlier release of leedroids rom I just reinstalled and it fixed it

If on stock all you can do it factory reset or run a RUU.

Locked and S-off

Yo, i got my HTC sensation S-off with Juopunutbear after 5 tries,SUP!
[HTC Sensation] KarlMarX:
Great guide!

But I tried 20 times now, but still got the timing wrong I guess... At first wire contact, the phone reboots immediately, but the movie and guide says that you have to make contact twice...

Any extra suggestions?
[HTC Sensation] auggie2k:
Thank you :) It's just a matter of getting it bang on right. I suggest holding the first contact in place (not the SD Casing) and tap briefly on the SD Casing, release for nearly 2 seconds and a tap briefly once again and let go.

If "Waiting device...." doesn't appear and it's still refreshing telling you to do the Wire-Trick, repeat and repeat and repeat until it does. Have a look at the video as well for a good example of it, make sure you don't make contact with your chosen conductor either.
[HTC Sensation] stewie01:
Very good guide!!!

I have tried 6 times ... worked :-)
[HTC Sensation] KarlMarX:
After 20 more times, still no luck.

I got this after the wire trick:

Do not remove sdcard from phone
Do wire-trick now!! Look instructions at web

That "Fastboot detected" and "rebooting device" I don't see in the guide above... Also the phone vibrates like a real new boot up...
[HTC Sensation] auggie2k:
I've corrected that for you.

Your almost there, now it's just a matter of getting the timing right with the Wire-Trick. Keep at it, I assure you it will work.

BTW, can I ask what you are using to make contact? Are you making quick contact and releasing for about 1.75 seconds and quick contact again? I find it to be better to be on the early side of 1.75 seconds rather than later (in my testing).
[HTC Sensation] KarlMarX:
I used several things, like paperclips, wire from a little old computer fan, but the best thing so far seems to be insulated wire used to wrap cables what comes with new electric stuff... And then take some platic of both ends...

I've tried 100 times now.

The fact that I am this far means that there are now problems withs roms and roots etc, am I correct? (I used ARHD, not the stock rom)
[HTC Sensation] auggie2k:
If you have got to the point of the Wire-Trick, ROM's and Roots are irrelevant because you are well past that. It's just timing. I've done a little GIF for the best timing of the contact. Hope this helps you :)
[HTC Sensation] htcmartin:
HI.

IF I have stock ICS, Stock HBOOT, i dont have root, s-off..

this metode do root and s-off? then i use custom rom?
[HTC Sensation] auggie2k:
This guide is only for users who are stuck on S-ON HBOOT 1.27.0000 with 3.32 Firmware.

If you have a lower version of HBOOT, please use Revolutionary to get S-OFF.

http://revolutionary.io/

Afterwards, you will be able to flash a custom recovery and then all the ROMs you like.
[HTC Sensation] theq86:
First you have to unlock your bootloader via htcdev.com.

then you have to root your sensation

and then you can do this exploit.
[HTC Sensation] htcmartin:
I have hboot 1.27 and 3.32 firmware, and I have use htc methode..

Ok then this is only s-off manual. If I have done thist, then i use Custom ROM?

EDIT: sorry for my english
[HTC Sensation] auggie2k:
With the HTC Dev method, you could already change your Recovery and use a custom ROM but you were stuck with the 3.32 Base Firmware meaning you couldn't overclock or make lots of other great changes we take for advantage. With S-OFF, you have full control of the NAND partition and can make all the changes you wish so go crazy :)
[HTC Sensation] Leonardo Monteiro:
What am I doing wrong?

I dont know what to do. I need help. I read all post, but I dont understand what is missing.

I have HTCdev;

I did "fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.0.9-pyramid.img";

I used "su-2.3.6.3-efgh-signed.zip";

ive tried so many times and nothing works. i guess ill stay s-on
[HTC Sensation] lrm537:
Maybe you're getting the timing wrong. If your timing is anything like your attitude then your screwed.
[HTC Sensation] auggie2k:
Did you flash the Unlocked User Friendly 3.32 Firmware afterwards? That will change it to Revolutionary's 1.27.1111 (which is perfectly fine).

lost my rom

hi guys

i have a sensation with h-boot 1.18.0000

and my phone is still s-on

i need to s-off it

and i havent any roms

i installed recovery and format all drives

now i need to install any rom to startup my phone

please help me

my cid is: HTC__J15
[HTC Sensation] Rusty!:
Use Revolutionary.
[HTC Sensation] trkaaa:
first hboot 1.18.0000 should be S-OFFed in the normal way using Revolutionary Method or tacoroot method , "don't use not Juopunutbear S-OFF , it is not for your case "

Note that Revolutionary Site could be under maintenance , so wait for it to be online again if it is so

it seems you unlocked the bootloader using htc dev and installed custom recovery :

when flashing RUU or using Revolutionary

, the bootloader should be

locked

before doing both

when flashing Custom Rom , the bootloader should be Unlocked

to recover your device from the format :

if you made a NAND Backup after installing the recovery , just restore it

or install a Stock Rooted custom Rom Android 2.3.3 or 2.3.4 . ( Update Here is a mirror for the 2.3.3 rom: Dropbox )

or install GB RUU better 1.45.x.x " the bootloader should be locked " , this version is compatible with Revolutionary , you will loose the custom recovery after flashing the RUU

if you didn't Find 1.45.x.x ,you can use 1.50.x.x and then maybe you will need downgrade softwarebefore using revolutionary

link for Arabic RUU's http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1531571

i prefer for you the NAND method first

go read this Guide [Guide] Successful S-OFF after (wrong S-ON) brick for ICS/GB ,Downgrade S-ON firmware to understand how to install custom roms in your case and follow title Custom Rom Flash

for Revolutionary follow title Revolutionary Method and Precautions ( Gingerbread )

I disconnected the phone after that.

Should I flash RUU? boot.img? stock recovery? or all firmware?
[HTC Sensation] T-Macgnolia:
It seems that Juopunutbear can not detect your device using ADB or fastboot. I recommend you open up the SDK Manager and let it download the current google android drivers, this should fix your problem. When you open up the SDK Manager it will pop a window up and look for new packages. When it finds the new packages it will ask you if you want to install the packages. You can select all the packages or just the ones you want, but personally I suggest you select all. If you are still having trouble after that post back here.

[HTC Sensation] T-Macgnolia:
You have 1.27.0000 Hboot, you have the 3.32.161.11 firmware, your model ID is PG5813000, and your CID is VODAP001(CID for Vodafone UK). Yo need to flash a stock ROM that matches these requirements. Unfortunately it is not a link for that version RUU that I know of right now, unless someone else out there knows where to get it from, maybe Vodaphone.. So I hope you can boot into Hboot by powering on your device while holding the volume down button down. If you get to Hboot screen use the volume rocker to scroll and the power button to select, you will need to select fastboot and connect your device to your computer. Next upon a command window in the tools folder of the SDK and type the following into the window.

fastboot oem writecid 11111111

This will give you supper CID so you can use any carrier's RUU that matches your information as there are RUU's out for that firmware and Hboot version.
[HTC Sensation] ganeshp:
i don't think with S-ON he can change his CID (especially not possible with 1.2x HBOOT)

anyways that guy got his issue resolved...he is on ARHD now :D
[HTC Sensation] T-Macgnolia:
You are right I forgot you got to be S-off to write a new CID. My bad man, glad to know they got it worked out.

Okay so. Making progress in baby steps. Managed to get S-Off. Dunno if it's here i should be posting the query, but I'll try anyway. When I'm in HBoot, I'm trying to get into recovery mode so I can flash Superuser. However, whenever I select recovery in Hboot, the phone just reboots and starts up again. Any ideas?
[HTC Sensation] trkaaa:
either you have PG58IMG.zip on your Sd card , just remove it first

or you don't have custom recovery , go here to install one Guide for installing Both Custom / Stock Recovery ( Downloads and Methods )
[HTC Sensation] peteIRL:
Thanks mate. I tried the methods you listed in the link. But I must have screwed up somewhere, because nothing will work at the moment. I'm still unable to get into the recovery mode, and I cant flash any recovery img. All I get is FAILED <remote: not allowed> At this stage, I'm completely lost. Oh, and wi-fi wont turn on now! Have I completely screwed the pooch?!
[HTC Sensation] T-Macgnolia:
Are you sure you are S-off
[HTC Sensation] trkaaa:
after s-off , Juopunutbear should be written in Pink in bootloader , and your

hboot should be 1.27.1100

Did you flash an RUU after S-OFF " i.e your hboot now is 1.27.0000 " ? if so flash the firmware Package 3.32 according to your cid and fastboot commands will work with you without errors

to avoid using fastboot commands , try recovery

in the format PG58IMG.zip

, it is flashed through bootloader " Method 2 " , try different ones until one works
[HTC Sensation] T-Macgnolia:
If they flashed a RUU that made their Hboot 1.27.0000 then they will already have the 3.32 firmware as the RUU would have flashed it.

Something tells me they are not S-off but just HTC Dev unlocked still. this is why I say this.

Plus I am wondering if they are even unlocked. It looks like the recovery partition is still read only not read and write.
[HTC Sensation] trkaaa:
yes RUU include 3.32 firmware but with locked Hboot 1.27.0000 , flashing the unlocked 3.32 firmware will flash boot 1.27.1100 " unlocked "

that will allow him to use fastboot write commands " to flash recovery "
[HTC Sensation] T-Macgnolia:
Ok I got you know now ;)
[HTC Sensation] peteIRL:
So after I did the Juopunutbear method of S-Off, when I go into Hboot, the bit in the pink bar says ***LOCKED***. I thought this would be right, as that's what it says in the first post in this thread. Underneath that, it does say- Pyramid PVT Ship S-OFF RL.

The HBoot is still 1.27.0000

I'd love to be able to flash something to the sd card now, but whenever I try to flash boot.img or recovery.img, all I get is the error I posted before, or <waiting for device> forever.

Sorry if this is frustrating for anyone else, but I am a noob to this whole rooting thing!
[HTC Sensation] trkaaa:
you will not be able to flash recovery from fastboot with hboot 1.27.0000 , you will need

hboot to 1.27.1100 to do that

boot.img or recovery.img are flashed from PC using fastboot , not from sd card

and you S-OFF , you don't need to flash boot.img for roms !!

for error <waiting for device>, this is caused by the drivers , do the following

uninstall htc new drivers

and htc Sync , and use the

old htc drivers

(v 3.0.0.007) HTCDriver3.0.0.007.exe

run cmd as administrator

Disable any firewall or antivirus

for error FAILED <remote: not allowed> do either of the following :

use Custom recovery

in the format PG58IMG.zip

, it is flashed through bootloader " Method 2 " , try different ones until one works , link is Guide for installing Both Custom / Stock Recovery ( Downloads and Methods )

or flash the firmware Package 3.32 according to your cid and fastboot commands will work with you without errors , choose your firmware from here User Friendly Firmware Upgrade

in all cases flash the firmware to change hboot to 1.27.1100

, this will allow you to flash recovery , radio , ... etc without getting the error remote not allowed
