Hello
To make a long story short: i deleted the build.prop file located in /system on ny HTC Sensation XL, and then restarted the phone.
Now, when i boot it shows the HTC logo, and then there's just a black screen until i pull out the battery.
I can access the bootloader.

Don't want to ask how that happened LOL.
If you can get to recovery just reflash your ROM
If it's not on your phones storage then mount using CWM and copy the ROM across and then reflash. Wipe cache and dalvik. Don't worry about data and factory reset to start as you may get away with it.
I cant access recovery.
I have been having this problem for about a week, so i gave the phone to one of my moms friends a couple of days ago, he just called and said it worked now, so never mind

Nice guide, but as a info, the version of touch recovery included in the tool is from a chinese site, and is fully functional, only thing missing is mount usb , so, you can use with no problem, i have used it with no problem and flashed a few things with it...
Nice guide mate. Not being rude but a little correction here.. the code of updater-script to detect the hboot & flash vold.fstab accordingly is my creation.. i made it when ICS was relased for Runnymede.....

Yeah, people think, but that doesn't mean you must write that it doesn't do this or that, as you posted there, that was from another version of Touch Recovery, mention the version so people know this or that, many someone don't mind the mount-usb as there is a workaround, but when they see that cleand dalvik doesn't work or other things, they will surely panic )
For starters it is a good guide, just some polishing here and there
yesssssss you are the man.. tanks allot
Thanks Anders
Thanks mate, I wasnt not able to mount SD Card in Recovery but after following your guide now its working completly fine. Thanks a bunch mate.
Cheers
Anders3408 i am going to name my first born after you, THANK YOU finally got this working !
Hi, i'm using Sensation XL w a Cobra rom, i got this problem trying to install various apps from market. For instance, XDA, its keep saying "Can't install on USB Storage or SD card", but some other apps can be installed just fine. Storage count: Internal 4Gb, Phone Storage 8.89Gb - So i don't really know what's going on.
Also did try to fix it with this solution http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1965039, but the XL doesn't have a removable SD card, so ... there's no "unmount"
So i heard about your fix, tried it, but it stays the same.
It would be really great if you can help me out.

Uninstall HTC sync. Remove everything else from USB. Connect via USB 2.0. Download my tool. Install driver while phone is connected.

Hi,
It's been about a year since I've messed about with my XL, I flashed it the day I got it as usual, but then a few months later the speaker broke. So I unrooted, re-locked etc, and after spending 10 months psyching myself up to be without my phone for a week, I eventually sent it off for repair. I've had it back a month or so, and got a bee in my bonet last night, and decided to go custom again. I decided to go for Evervolv, and went through the processes again (in a much easier fashion than it was in Nov 11 when I got my phone). Anyway, having made several mistakes, and attempted short-cuts, to eventually go back to doing it the way i did it last time (China ROM etc), I eventually got my phone booting again. It is all working nice (big thanks to the team behind the ROM - love it, and big thanks to Vertigo and Shinger5 for some of the guides), but I had no usable SD card. So more searching and came accross this thread, and got a little stumbled at point 6 of second method (XL Tool). So decided to d/l the JB fix, and side load it. This now gives me an SD card, but only 236kb. I have no idea what I've done wrong, and short of starting again to eliminate the lack of sleep having influence, I don't know what to do.
Any ideas anyone?
Ok guys, my Sensation XL is currently on Android 2.3.5, and I'm trying to update the firmware to the newest. But my phone is rooted! I downloaded that OTA RootKeeper app and activated it before starting the whole updating process, but for the past...I'd say half hour it's been sitting on the screen with the triange and the Droid mascot. So, does that mean it's slowly working? Or is it just going to sit here until I decide to unplug the phone and give up? I wanna update my phone because there are apps where I need the latest firmware, but I like the freedom of having a rooted phone so I can delete what I dont want and so on.
How long should this update take? Since it is kind of updating a ****load X3 Also, if this doesnt work, I wanna do a complete stock reboot of the phone then try updating the firmware, but I dont wanna loose all my apps, save data, contacts and so on D: Plus will the bloatware I deleted using my root return with a vengeance if I do a Factory Restart? Help me out here, guys D:

If it took longer than 5 minutes, then it is bootlooping. Unlock boot loader, flash custom recovery, s off, flash a custom rom. Then you can have latest, but no matter what, you will loose all your data on the phone except what's on the inbuilt sdcard. Note the contacts are usually synced with you gmail login.

It doesnt have a custom rom on it though D: Is there any sort of app out there where I can backup my stuff to my PC? All I really care about is my contacts and app data (Like browser favorites and a couple of my games data). Or am I really just kinda screwed? X3 Also, I dont have a clue on how to do any of what you just said. X3

There does exsist some apps that can take backup of apps. Look in the sticky threads for guides or you can do it with my aio tool if you are running on a 64 bit windows.

I'll check out your app see what I can do with it ^__^ Thanks for the help.
Edit: So with your program I can do all what you said to do before, plus create backups of my apps and their saved data to my phone?
Edit2: Damnit. I'm on 32bit T_T

It cant create backup of apps only. It can only create a full backup.
Yes ATM it can only work on 64 bit. Need to change a few thing before it works on 32 bit

I found some good looking ways of updating to the latest firmware, but since I'm a newb I cant actually link them to you so you could give them the thumbs up I'm just getting so tired of having a crappy ass old firmware on my phone now T_T plus I'm hoping the new firmware could fix a few problems. I'm half tempted to just backup my contacts and just factory reboot my whole phone...and live with it not being rooted until the end of my contract. Should I just give up and do that? XD
Hi Guys,
I have recently just got S-Off on my HTC One after several tries, and I was so happy about it. I went then to download Android Revolution HD Google Play Edition to flash on my phone.
I have successfully the rom on my phone without any problem, I even did a wipe with dalvik cache and etc..
The problem is that when I press reboot it goes on to the Boot up screen where it shows HTC One Quietly Brilliant boot up screen with white background, it stays on that for about 20 seconds then it turns off and then reboots into recovery. I do not know what this is happening, could anybody explain to me.
Thank You
Have you tried wiping everything and flashing again? Do a full wipe and five it a try.

+1. You just need adb setup, which is usually setup with fastboot.
