Hi there,
First of all, Sorry for this stupid thread, but i found no answer with the search Tool.
Just like the topic sais, i cant mount my sd-card (internal storage) in the recovery, but i can get Access to my sd-card when i "choose zip from sd card".
Anyone knows how to fix that?
With Kind regards

Thank You so much.
I downloaded the xl Multi Tool and flashed the recovery with adb.
Am I right, that there's no Touch-recovery with working sd-mount?
With kind regards

Hello
How can we set up our HTC Sensation XL for Dual Boot?
whats is the dual boot?
when we can install 2 roms and choose which one we want to boot,f.e. you use your daily rom and can test a new a new rom at the same time on the same device
call me a little bit realistic, but hardly seems worth any dev working on this when we only really have 3 different based roms ICS + sense/ ICS built on htc framework and Stock GB based roms....
Takes 2 mins to flash a rom......
And everytime setting all the widgets and the apps on the homescreens, setting up the accounts etc

you can make backups of two roms , and anytime you want to boot to the other rom you can restore it's backup back. ;-)
With which app?

When in recovery with CWM go to back and restore and back up
It will backup your current ROM as it is. You should do this as common practice before installing new ROMs.
Dual is not for booting different android builds but for booting different os on same phone. This is not a hd2 capable of running multiple os at same time. No need for dual boot for purely android builds flashed to nand partition. If we had an sdcard slot could boot android off nand or sdcard via dual boot. Can't flash 2 different android builds to one nand partition

I'm not very good in explaining in english
I just ment that i can choose when the phone boots which rom I want to boot. Does we have to partitions one nand and one for user data? can't we the partition for user data partitionate?
It's been done on the desire HD
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1173309
One ROM on nand and one on sd
For the xl you'd have to use the built in storage
Would be pretty handy to have a work install and a private
Edit: obviously don't try the desire HD one on the xl

Mate it isn't about the processor. As I said we have no sdcard on xl so its rather pointless. You cannot dual.boot 2 roms off same nand partition as you for one will corrupt it and as its only so big you will find it hard to fit both on. It's a bad idea to even consider it. Like I said on hd2 which runs multiple os its possible as wp7 and android and wm6.5 and linux etc all off one phone. On desire hd one on nand and one on sdcard. We have no such luxury of an sdcard. Running multiple os on one nand partition is dangerous. You would have to partition the nand and hope to get both on and need dual boot manager etc. Dangerous on this phone and unwise

Well its 1ghz single core chip. It has a sdcard slot which makes so much difference. HTC one x also has no sdcard. In essence you could use internal sdcard but if any data corruption your phone is ****ed. Sdcards can be replaced remember lol

There are ways around it, but like you said it's not worth it IMO. just for the record, one way around it would be to load 2nd OS directly into memory. obviously it would need to be a fairly small build like AOSP.
Boot Manager
Guys, i read the first post only & not sure if some one else has already pointed it out.
We can have multiple ROMs installed on our XL via Boot Manager..
I was using this wonderful app on my Desire HD & recently made it work for Sensation XL along with the Boot Manager team ofcourse..
You wont find our device listed there BUT it is working for sure...
Hi guys!
I've been having this problem every time I try to install a custom ROM like BinDroid, BinDroid I-Scream, etc.
So far the only custom ROM that works on my XL is Coredroid. When I follow the processes of wiping data, cache and dalvik cache, and then installing the BinDroid.zip file, I always end up in a bootloop where the flashing lines around the bindroid logo just go on forever.
It really makes me wonder why Coredroid is the only custom ROM that seems to work. I've even tried IceColdZombie, but it usually just hangs at the white screen with the htc logo.
I really wanna try out the other custom ROMs, especially the ICS ones. So any help would be most appreciated. I'm pretty desperate as I can't seem to find anyone with the problem I have. I've searched for weeks, yet the solutions others seem to give don't work for me.
Help!
Did you flash the chinese boot.img people talk about? It's ment to solve this issue. But to be honest i never flashed it and custom roms work fine for me. Maybe someone who knows more about it can give you abit more info
Sent from my HTC Sensation XL with Beats Audio X315e using Tapatalk 2
where can i find the chinese boot image?
Yup, I've tried that way too.
Honestly I didn't even need to go through installing that chinese ROM when I had first installed Coredroid on my XL.
It's such a mystery why the other custom ROMs just lead to a bootloop at the logo.
I've actually tried the chinese ROM way but it just gets stuck at the white screen with the htc logo. So I always have to revert back to Coredroid.

You could try flashing the boot.img from core droid, or even use the stock one. After you flash a custom rom. You can do it from fastboot, using the command "fastboot flash boot boot.img"

Where do i get the boot.img from core droid or the stock?
Download coredroid, and use 7zip or winrar to extract archive. Boot.img will be in the root of the extracted archive, you can do the same with the flashable stock roms in the dev section. Make sure you copy the boot.img to the same folder as fastboot.exe before you try flashing it.

No luck.
Extracted boot.img from coredroid then placed it in the same folder as fastboot.exe like you said.
Flashed bindroid.zip after doing a total wipe and THEN flashed boot.img.
Results? When it rebooted its now stuck at the white screen with the htc logo.

In the bindroid thread. In post 2 or 3 there are some none O/C kernels, grab one of them and flash it from recovery. It maybe the overclock causing the bootloop, some chipsets are uber sensitive to high clockspeeds/Voltages.
*edit*
Sorry im having a blonde moment, are you trying to flash the ICS bindroid? If so coredroids boot.img wont work, try the stock boot.img from one of the stock ICS roms.

Blonde moment? xD I totally got lost with the comment about chipsets and kernels.
Uhm yup, the ICS bindroid one.
Does it have to be a specific stock ICS rom? Like region specific and stuff like that?
'Cause I know there are Asian, Europe and Taiwan ones.
Im not sure whether to download the Asian one with the WWE or the TW. Would it matter?
* Oops never mind. There's only one stock ICS rom and it has TW, so I'm guessing that's the one I download?
Download the one danny made. It says "official sensation ics rom".

So basically went through the same process again.
Extracted the boot.img from the ICS ROM to the folder of where the fastboot.exe is located.
Total wiped then installed BinDroid I-Scream. Flashed boot.img, got past the htc logo white screen, but got stuck in a bootloop of the bindroid logo and flashing lines.
Damn, and I was really hoping it would work this time.
Did I do anything wrong?
Hmm thats a really strange issue im lost now. Maybe your going to have to wait for the official ICS update and try then
Sent from my HTC Sensation XL with Beats Audio X315e using Tapatalk 2
Aww...
I was really getting excited to try out BinDroid I-Scream too.
Thanks for the help anyway
By the way, is it normal for the Dalvik Cache to say 'E:unknown volume for path [/sd-ext]' before wiping it?
Could that be an issue?
Yeah thats right. SDext is a partition used for apps2sd+. We dont need that because we have 4GB for apps

Ive just had a thought. When you flash a boot.img from fastboot. Does it report any bad blocks?

[Q]how to root htc sensation xl running android 4.0.3 OFFICIAL UPDATE
Alright so here's the deal I've got an unlocked sensation xl (using HTCdev) and now I want to root it can someone plz post a noob guide as to how to do it
You will need the root tool from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1625841 which will need putting on your sdcard because it needs flashing from recovery
Then you will need to flash recovery in fastboot from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1216504&d=1343047739
Once recovery is flashed, boot into recovery and flash the root tool from there and then reboot
Once rebooted go to app drawer and look for SuperSU open it and it should say it needs updating just click ok and it should update and thats it.....
Thanx I'll try it now

Let me explain how i do it by myself
1. First of all you must download and copy all needed files (Rom, GAPPS) and copy them to your SD Card.
2. After that you need to change your hboot from .25 to .28. (for this procedure I used XL Multi-Tool v2.1)
By changing your hboot your SD card will not work on the old Rom but don't panic
3. Go to Recovery Mode and flash needed files.
4. Enjoy your new Rom and by the way check your SD Card showing
Where do we get the needed files (Roms & GAPPS)???
