[HTC Sensation] lui8906:
Hi there,

I'm tearing my hair out here. I have an HTC sensation which I inherited off my girlfriend. I tried to update it OTA and it says something like "variant system version htc" etc. I thought oh maybe somehow the bootloader has been tampered with. I previously had a rooted HTC desire for a couple years. I thought oh I'll just root this as well. I've tried on two occassions over 6+ hours to unlock this sensation via HTC Dev and it just doesn't work. I download sdk and put fastboot and adb in a folder. Connect the phone with USB and go into terminal and type cd and drag the folder in to make sure location is right. Then type ./fastboot oem get_identifier_token and it has either said "permission denied" or most commonly "waiting for device". So after shedding tears of rage, I gave up on that route. I thought instead ok lets see if I can go via OTA. So I called HTC and they rain my IMEI and apparently this phone is French (I'm in Australia) and thats why the OTA updates aren't working. He recommended I call the French HTC support and see what they can do. Funny thing is, I don't speak French.

Before I throw this phone off the highest place I can, is there any way I can get this OTA French update online off someone or a download website?

Model number: HTC sensation z710e

Thanks in advance for any helpful comments. I've done lots of reading and seem to be going in circles. From what I've read there doesn't appear to be a one click root app for the Sensation as existed for my HTC desire.

[HTC Sensation] ganeshp:
you can easily unlock the device !!!

i think you are missing few points here

1. uncheck fastboot in settings -> power/battery

2. also enable "usb debugging" in settings ->developer options

3.then once you connect the phone from bootloader to the pc

( to go to bootloader ..power off phone ..remove battery , reinsert it ..then hold power + volume down buttons together until you get the bootloader screen a few seconds ))

4. if the connection is proper and you have proper drivers installed the phone says "FASTBOOT USB"

if the phone is saying :HBOOT" press power button once then it should say "FASTBOOT USB"

if the phone is just saying "FASTBOOT" that means connection is not proper or drivers are not installed

for proper connection : you can only use usb 2.0 ports ..usb 3.0 port and usb hubs dont work properly ..also if using pc connect to back usb ports

for proper drivers: you need to have HTC sync installed ..or if you have windows 7/8 32 bit install these drivers ..if you have windows 7/8 64 bit install these drivers (NOTE: if you plan to use these drivers .uninstall every HTC related software from control panel then reboot and install these ..and dont install HTC sync any more)

5. to check proper connection

type this command from your adb/fastboot folder

fastboot devices (it should list your device )

6. then continue with the rest of process

Thanks for your reply.

I have good news and bad news.

The good news is I have S-OFF and rooted my phone.

The bad news is that both JB roms I have tried I am unable to get passed choosing my language after the phone has started. I select any language (say english US) and it just freezes and then after 10 seconds restarts. This is with the CM 10.1 and AOSP 4.2.2 roms from development section. When installing these roms I make a nand backup, then wiped data and cache as well as dalvik cache. Then install the rom and JBapps. Any ideas on what to try to fix this? For now I have reverted to my backup.

Onto how I unlocked and rooted.

I was consistently getting an error in terminal when typing ./fastboot oem get_identifier_token

It would say .... ERROR

After a lot of googling I discovered that I was most likely getting that error because my HBOOT was too old for the HTCDEV method.

So I tried the revolutionary method which worked perfectly. Than installed clockwork recovery, gained root (did a dance for joy) and now here I am very close to JB goodness just need to figure out why it keeps on rebooting.

Any help is appreciated. :laugh:
[HTC Sensation] ganeshp:
You've done soff via revolutionary means you've got 1.17 firmware.. For ics and jellybeans you need 3.32/3.33 firmware.. Grab the latest firmware from kohr-ah firmware thread in sensation development section and flash it.. Then flash any ics/jb rom :)

Hi everyone I'm happy to say I have just purchased a nexus s and would appreciate some advice preferably with links

Firstly on rootimg and unlocking the bootloader ! Also is there a all-in-one tool. Secondly miui Roms hopefully Ginger bread based (I heard oodie is on this forum somewhere his miui prime roms is still the top on the xperia x10i two years later. Any advice is much appreciated Sent from my X10i using xda premium
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] weedy2887:
> just purchased

I hope you got the phone almost for free because there is very little reason to buy a phone at these specs.

You really need two cores (they don't need to be 1.7ghz monsters) and a 1 gig (or at least 700mb~) of ram.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 1eyedmonster:
I payed £64 for the phone I know its not dual core but I just want a standard phone which has a good graphical gpu and still has a decent development.

I have/used to have a xperia x10i and development has slowed right down in regards to ics/jb however pound for pound the nexus packs the biggest punch! Thus the reason for the purchase

I just want miui gingerbread working and I am happy

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jahlovePL:
Welcome, if you want a latest stable official MIUI 2.3.7, you can find it on my google drive.

I bought my nexus 3 months ago, it was brand new and cost ~ £200, but it was last model in my country.

I always wanted to have this phone, and I don't feel like I have to have dual core phone now. Jellybean on NS is fast as hell.

here are all most popular roms for nexus s

happy flashing and using nexus!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 1eyedmonster:
My philosophy exactly!!!!

Which ROM is it exactly? I am not aware there was an official miui ROM for this device? Also what kernel if any is needed? Also is it a English ROM?

I am new here like i said i have had a xperia x10i since 2010 and i have nexus 7 16gb that is why I went for the nexus 3 the exact model is Gt-19020t I understand there is different variants/ models .

This is an exciting time for me I am glad there are like minded people on this forum I think I have made the correct decision
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jahlovePL:
Best combo for me is latest 2.3.7c (there is also MIUI 2.3.7 Scotland version) with latest franco's kernel.

ROM: https://docs.google.com/folder/d/0B...sp=sharing&docId=0BxlS0gt4GJLMaGtPYzIzQndCNkU

Kernel: https://docs.google.com/folder/d/0B...sp=sharing&docId=0BxlS0gt4GJLMT0lLcm9rZnZyY0E

You can try Brainmaster MIUI also, it has included it's own kernel inside.

Chrome still freezes and locks the N10. Have to reboot so the software update didnt change this for me. I will just stick to Dolphin as I get no freezes using that browser.
[Nexus 10 General] espionage724:
Can you reproduce the crash? I've used Chrome, on 4.2.2, and have had no crashes (I don't even think I had any crashes in the past either).
[Nexus 10 General] styckx:
Same.. Never a crash on 4.2.1 or 4.2.2 and I've always used Chrome..
[Nexus 10 General] chase3567:
I think it might just be my device as I got freezes with chrome from the day I bought it. I stop using Chrome and lockups stopped. Just got the update two days ago and I used Chrome for the first time and the first website I went too and was reading an article, it froze up and I had to do a hard reset. I'm all stock and not rooted.
[Nexus 10 General] suicidalintentions:
returned?

I haven't had any crashes or any issues that everyone else has had. Maybe its because I waited to buy my nexus 4 and nexus 10 until February but if I did experience any of those issues I would have returned the device. Why bother with it? That's just my two cents but thank god I haven't had any issues, Yet!! And hopefully I never do
[Nexus 10 General] chase3567:
No need to return as I perfer Dolphin anyways, which solved my problem. I bought it from Staples in Jan. and would have been easy to return if I chose too.

I have Chrome neatly frozen with Titanium Backup since I got the N10 (I had terrible experience with it on my phone). Never had any problems related to it.
[Nexus 10 General] tgrgrd00:
This thread begs my question. I am using Chrome Beta but what do you do with the native Chrome? I have both installed because it seems like Chrome is pretty well integrated into the system and there isn't a uninstall option.

I could freeze it but don't want it to cause any issues.

Any thoughts or experiences?
[Nexus 10 General] stiggy2012:
I use Chrome beta, and have had 1 hard-freeze in Chrome in approx 20 hours use since the upgrade to 4.2.2. Being the beta version of Chrome it can occasionally crash also, but its not too often this happens now either. I don't mind Chrome crashing every few hours as its only a 3 second job to press the button on my homescreen with my tabs still loaded when it re-opens, but freezes are not cool.

Before that, I was on cyanogenmod and Chrome would get a freeze every 5 hours or so.
[Nexus 10 General] jonstrong:
Only had occasional freezes in Chrome beta since early December. In over 100 hours uptime since installing 4.2.2 I've only used Chrome (not beta!) and had zero lagging, zero freezes and no reboots.

[Nexus 10 General] v4nt0m:
I was having major problems with chrome after 4.2.2 it was just being sluggish and locking up for seconds or more at a time, rebooting seems to fix it and the problem is intermittent.
[Nexus 10 General] rcatron:
I have always had lock up and restart problems in chrome on my Nexus 10. I cannot see a particular repeatable browser action and/or site that causes the lock up, but the process is always the same:

Browsing, chrome hangs, screen buttons freeze, and after multiple screen touches the device will shut down and restart.

Happens perhaps 3-4 times a week

I have also had it lock up like that one time while using the cameras, but only once. I have owned the device since launch.
[Nexus 10 General] jeepguy_1980:
I had crashes several times per day with Chrome (beta and stock)and 4.2.1. I've had zero crashes under 4.2.2 with Chrome beta. I haven't tried the stick version under 4.2.2.
[Nexus 10 General] commzod:
I used to continually have issues with chrome locking or rebooting. Not sure if it was the change to 4.2.2 or the fact I finally bit the bullet and rooted then installed Seeder and LagFix Free but I haven't had a lock up since and things seem to be running faster than ever!!!! Still stock rom and kernel
[Nexus 10 General] khaidottk:
I still get crashes with 4.2.2, but it's much reduced compared to 4.2.1. I used to be getting several a day and now it's every couple days.
[Nexus 10 General] erikiksaz:
For those with issues, have you performed a factory reset?
[Nexus 10 General] styckx:
Both of those apps are snake oil.
[Nexus 10 General] RobRoy:
Hi,

My Chrome beta works quite well overall on 4.2.1 and now on 4.2.2.

However it struggles badly with the news Australian google news site.

Freezes after every 2nd or 3rd action.

Wonder if this is very website (or HTMLfeautre) specific and depending on your browsing habbit you have 0 to many problems.

Cheers
[Nexus 10 General] erikiksaz:
I haven't run a direct test with lagfix, but seeder actually works.

Both of my friends have stock galaxy nexi, and one had seeder installed. Load times and scrolling throughout web pages was noticeably smoother. Almost akin to upgrading from ICS to JB.

As for my nexus 10 and nexus 4, I don't notice the difference much.

But, back to my original question:

For those with issues, have you guys performed a factory reset?

*Update*

Tested the CM 10.1 experimental and the CROMi-Xenogenesus 4.4.1.

CM 10.1 boots and all but touch input is weird, the "Show touches circle" is persistent and input is like using a mouse; I have to drag the circle around and double click for a single click. I tried the latest two versions and had the same issues.

CROMi boots and doesn't suffer from the touch weirdness, but WiFi and Bluetooth are not working. I suspect if I were to pull libs from the ME301T stock I will be able to get them to work in this rom but I'm done testing for now.
