[Q] Htc Sensation - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm sorry if someone has already asked this, I am trying to i guess downgrade my firmware on my sensation. I upgraded it so i could run ics and my firmware went from 1.17 to 1.27.1100. Now i can't run the ics rom or my old rom. I want to go back to firmware 1.17 and i have read a few different forums and done what the said but i must be missing something. Could someone please help

Have you s-off? If you already have it, you must flash eng. hboot to downgrade.

Root question.

Hi, its been awhile since being in the root scene. Last being my HTC EVO 4g.
So, I now have the e4glte. It came with software version 1.13, so I'm assuming I have the supported lazypanda hboot. But how would I go about double checking my hboot.
Secondly, once I'm rooted, where can I find the 1.22 ota stock rooted. Havnt been able to find it browsing the forum on my phone

To get to the hboot screen first make sure that under Settings>Power, that Fastboot is unchecked. Power off phone then push Power and Volume down at the same time. Should pop up with the Androids skateboarding.
Now for the 1.22 software you'll have to search through develpoment, but you should know that were up to software 2.13 now. 2.13 comes with Sense 4.1 which gave us more to do with, esp the remapping ability of recent apps.
Hope that helps.

Thanks a ton, I did some more research. Seems I have the launch software, but it was nagging about the 1.22, so I thought that was the latest.
Seems I'm one of the lucky ones as I bought this phone today, and I have the 1.12 hboot and the1.02 radio.
So ill I need to do is use the lazypanda method to diff then flash a 2.13 Rom of my choice?
Is there any Plain stock 2.13 roms that anyone can link?

For the most part, yes. But it would also be good to update the firmware and radios which can be found here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=30865522 Make sure you obtain s-off before attempting this though.
And I tried looking for the stock 2.13 ROM but I can't seem to find it right now. If you can't find it though, I know I should have a copy on my pc that I could put on dropbox for you. Just let me know.

Installing Android Revolution HD ROM

I have a new HTC One X+ for about two weeks now and I´m planning to install the Android Revolution HD ROM, but I have some questions.
Using the HTC One X+ All-In-One Toolkit, I think I´m not going to have problems unlocking and rooting it.
But I have questions about flashing the ROM.
In the Android Revolution HD thread, one of the requirements is a firmware package which is available for download. But then in the instructions there isn´t any reference to it, so I don´t know if I have to download it and neither how to use it.
I have HBoot 1.30.0000, CID is HTC__622 and firmware version 11.14.708.16.
You should post on the thread you would get help quicker than on here.

I can´t, because I don´t have enough posts.
Question about firmware is quite clear, you can't use it, it is for x.xx.401.x aka wwe English, compare your cid with posted there, you are able to flash arhd Rom on your hox+

I know I can´t update the firmware due to my CID.
The problem is I read two people in the ARHD thread saying you can install the ROM with hboot 1.30 and one saying you can´t. But all the answers were before the 6.3 version was released, so I don´t know if I can install it.
you can. test it.

Thank you very much. It worked.
Some advice for the people doing it for the first time like me...
I followed the following thread for unlocking: [HOW TO] Unlock bootloader, Root, Flash Custom ROM, Flash Kernel
I did every step from the Post 1. When you use the toolkit, remember to close the command window or nothing will happen if you click on the next item.
I used CWM TOUCH v6.0.2.7 for recovery.
Then, instead of following the instructions on the Post 2, I followed the instructions in the ARHD thread. In the boot imagine folder there is a Readme file. Follow those instructions to install the ROM. You can use the toolkit to do some of the steps.
And in case your phone gets stuck in the boot animation after installing the ROM, press Power + Volume Up to reboot and you will be fine.

[Q] Can someone explain firmware for me?

I am pretty much lost when it comes to the firmware of the htc one. First i'll explain what I think I have grasped and what I have done. I am running ARHD 11.0 (thinking about 11.5, but cant decide if i want to wait for the next w/o the LTE bug). Running CWM 6.0.3.2. Last night installed a new radio .zip (baseband?). NO S-OFF and hboot 1.44 (i think).
Now the firmware gets a little fuzzy for me. Im getting the vibe that it is not mandatory, but could potentially be beneficial. How do i check my firmware? Is it include with custom rom updates? Should I upgrade it? And do i need to upgrade hboot or be S-OFF to do any of this.
Thank you in advance and especially to all the great developers out there.
I'd say to start off go check out mike1986's post in the international section and read around and if you have more questions then come back here

[Q] Moonshine S-OFF Issue

I was trying to S-OFF my HTC One using moonshine's method but could not get it to work properly.
As you will see from the screen shot (attached), its stuck there and doesn't go further.
I have gone over the guide multiple times. Fast boot is unchecked , USB debugging is checked, ADB and fastboot drivers are working.
I am currently using a T-Mobile version HTC one with the following software information:
Android Version: 4.1.2
HTC Sense version: 5.0
Software Number: 1.27.531.11
HTC SDK API Level: 5.12
Baseband version: 4A.17.3250.20_10.40.1150.04L
Can somebody here guide me what I am doing wrong or missed out something ?
You can't s-off. If you want to know more just use the search function or Google. This has been discussed many times in many threads.
Soff was patched when u took the new 1.27.531.11 update
That simple

"How to Convert Any HTC One into a Stock Google Play Edition with Bootloader, Recovery, & OTA Updates"
http://htc-one.wonderhowto.com/how-...with-bootloader-recovery-ota-updates-0148068/
Pretty sure u need soff to do super cid
Or anything further than just unlock and root.
You may be able to flash the older 1.27.531.8 Rom and then try it since the bootloiader wasn't updated.
If your on 1.27.531.11 you have to downgrade with a Rom or ruu
Don't quote me but I think people have don'e this to get soff

[Q] [S-On][Unbranded]Firmware Question

Hey Guys,
I have an unbranded HTC Amaze(Asian Version), s-on and rooted, recently I tried to flash Cyanogenmod 10 on it using 4ext, it flashed fine, but after starting, it kept hanging and rebooting, so I researched a bit and found out that my firmware is still the old gingerbread one, and to upgrade it I would have to turn s-off first.
However, I found a stock T-mobile Gingerbread ROM ,and flashed it its working fine now, and the it also allows me to update the system to ICS officially using the update available.
But my question is that if I update my android officially using the ICS update available, would it update my kernel as well? So I may be able to flash custom ICS roms on it.
Any help would be greatly appreciated thnx
Yes, it'll upgrade the software, kernel, and radio. But it's not recommended to do.
There's a link to the guide to upgrade the Asian amaze in the OP of the viper thread.
Follow the guide and read it thoroughly first.
Afaik you should use the guide and it'll then you'll be good!

Alright but as Im not using the stock RUU anymore, but the T-mobile one, so would I be able to turn S-off ? because I read that stock RUU is a must if u want to go s-off?
