Hi guys,
I'm new to the android world. I just got a HTC Sensation XL from a friend who says it doesn't work right anymore after he dropped it on the floor. So now I try to repair the thing, because I could keep it.
The problem ohone stuck on HTC Logo and won't boot. It's possible to get it in bootloader and it looks like this:
*LOCKED*
S-ON
HBoot: 1.25.0004
I dont get a connection to the PC, but after first time plug-in it installed the drivers.
So now my question is how can I get an new Ruu on this phone. What are the different possiblities.
Till now I downloaded this to versions:
2.31.401.2_Europe
1.05.401.4_Europe.
don't know which to use. Installed HTCSnyc to but it didn't find the phone.
So hope u guys will help me out
Thanks
Well I just tried 1.05.401.4but it didnt work. My CID is HTC_Y13.
Now downloading 2.31.401.2...
The 1.05 is for Gingerbread and the 2.31 is for ICS with sense 3.6. If you just want it stock and you are downloading 2.31.40.2 for europe then it should work. If it is not working, then take the long way.
1. Unlock bootloader
2. Flash a recovery
3. Root
4. S-off
Now after all this go run the ruu file and it should work.
Remeber after you have installed htc sync and you are going to try flash recovery or something , uninstall htc sync again.
Also a reminder , you can do the most of it via my tool, just not the unlock bootloader, that is still from htcdev.com but the tool will give you the code that is needed to copy into htcdev.com

Hey I don't get it. I want to try the "simple" way first. But what do I have to do? I uninstalled HTCSync now and unzipped zhe 2.31.401.2_Europe and now? How can i start this on my HTC Sensation XL? The phone doesn't get a connection with the computer. Should I put the phone in bootloader mode an then got to recovery ?
Sorry for this silly questions, I normally use an other OS instead of anroid. Maybe you can give me a link with a step by step intrduction or you can describe a little bit what I have to do.
Greetz
You will need to go and download it like an .exe file
The one you are missing for europe ICS is here : Download and boot phone normal and run the .exe file
if that link does not working then here and press the white button and this text : 下载
Hey thanks for the quick answer the problem is the phone stuck on HTC Logo and doesn't boot the symstem. Is there a possiblity to get a new Ruu version on it maybe with the bootloader? BEcasue bootlader starts and windows detects the phone.
then you either need to send it in or do it your self. Just unlock the bootloader and flash recovery, flash a rooted rom, boot it up and root it then s.off it and again from fully booted start the ruu file
Hmm ok than I have to do that, but do u have an step by step description what to do first, with what files?
Thanks for your help
go to the thread where you find my tool. runnymede AIO tool , in my signature
So it's me again.
I have now a cutsom ROM on my phone this one "Total_Senseless_SXL-v4.1.1"
My bootloader is unlocked and S-ON is still avaiable. How can I get now to a stock rom?
What do I have to use to relock my bootloader? After relocking I can install this ROM's?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1791345
Or don't I have to relock it with the posted version of the thread? And I can simply "install" it like a custom rom?
Greetz
First i will like to ask you, what did not work with my tool ?
Next is try go to recovery and then mount sd card for pc.
Download my sd card fix from my signature and put it on the sd card and flash it. Then the sd card issue shold be gone
---------- Post added at 07:50 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:48 AM ----------
If it is from recovery that the sd card fails in then you have not installed a proper working recovery. You should be able to boot the phone up and then enable Debugging in settings on the phone and then press either CWM recovery or TWRP recovery in my tool and it should reboot to bootloader, flash the recovery then reboot to system again.
If it is not working for you. Please tell me it so i can fix it
Sv: Sensation XL instal Ruu.exe
Better to use TWRP recovery than cwm.

My bad. 1.05.401.4 worked just fine when I put S-ON back and ran the file when phone was in fastboot.
Hi after a second try it worked. But I didn't test anything. Just installed a new CWM 6.anything I think.
So in this way there is nothing to fix on recovery mode or sd card. I just worked wrong with the program.
So I'm still on this custom rom: Total_Senseless_SXL-v4.1.1
can I simply take one of this versions: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1791345
and do it like the custom rom update? Means wipe all data and then install this ROM from the thread above ? Are these rom's stock rom's? Don't understand it because the thread title says stock AND root?
I just want to install a stock (original HTC) version on my custom rom
Sorry for the silly questions but there re so much guides that I don't know what to do

Follow the ADB steps carefully and when done reboot into bootloader again. Flash custom recovery like TWRP

If you unlocked using htcdev.com you still have to flash the boot.img manually, otherways it will be stuck at white screen with HTC in green letters.

Rerun the ruu.exe, but while you're still in the setup, find the rom.zip somewhere in your Temp folder on your computer.
Rename to PG32IMG.zip and put at the root of your SD card.
Now reboot in bootloader.
Maybe this works but I'm not sure, and don't blame me if something goes wrong, because I'm still new here.

OK, since you are S-OFF using Revolutionary, you will not be able to install the latest Sense 3.0 RUU because Revolutionary is preventing the RUU from overwriting its HBOOT with the locked HBOOT 2.00. The reason you are getting stuck on the white screen is because the Sense 3.0 RUU requires the locked HBOOT 2.00 be present.
Look in the Development section This is a stock, rooted ROM based on the Sense 3.0 RUU that you can flash since you are S-OFF. First you will need to reinstall ClockworkMod recovery and then you can flash the stocked, rooted ROM or any custom ROM.
If you really want to return to stock using the Sense 3.0, then you need to search this forum for the way to return to S-ON and then you can flash the RUU.
Hope this helps.

OK, if you can't connect with USB then FASTBOOT USB mode isn't an option. You need to create a PG32IMG.zip with the CWM recovery.img file in it, copy it to your SD card and flash it from HBOOT mode.

This will not work with the official Sense 3.0 RUU/ROM that he is using!!!! You can flash that boot.img all you want, but if you do not have HBOOT 2.00 installed on the phone, this ROM and boot.img will not work! It will bootloop on the white screen.
That boot.img requires that HBOOT 2.00 be installed because it uses a new /LIB partition to be mounted and HBOOT 2.00 is the only one that supports it.

Hi guys,
I'm new to the android world. I was playing around with my mum's HTC(was on ICS) and tried to root it, but im not sure if its rooted now, but i have ****ed the phone up hardcore
The problem is phone stuck on HTC Logo and won't boot. It's possible to get it in bootloader and it looks like this: I have unlocked it HTCdev.com
*UNLOCKED*
S-ON
HBoot: 1.28.0004
RADIO-3831.15.00.20_M
eMMC-boot
I dont get a connection to the PC, but after first time plug-in it installed the drivers.
So now my question is how can I get an new Ruu on this phone. Would it be fixed by me installing the ICS RUU.exe file?
I can't seem to find it i do have the code from the HTCdev, but i do not have ANY clue what to do..... Please help me out
To get the correct drivers that are needed for the phone you either should install htc sync then uninistall it again or you should go download my tool, it has an installer for drivers for windows, just not windows 8.
About the code from htcdev, that part you have used correctly. That is a bin file you used to get bootloader *UNLOCKED* and since its saying unlocked you should be good to go.
After unlocking the bootloader you can go to bootloader and flash a custom recovery. To do that you can simple install my runnymede aio tool and press either twrp or cwm recovery button. It will pop up with a box that says "Press Ok when in bootloader" and since you are already in bootloader you can just skip that part and press ok.
after it has flashed recovery it will try to boot to the system just go to bootloader again
When you are in bootloader you can go into recovery.
After that you can flash any custom rom but if you want to stay on a custom rom i will recommed you to flash to specific roms first, found in the "guide" in my Runnymede AIO Tool. And then after that flash any rom for our phone. I know it sounds a little stupid and is is also not cofirmed giving any diffrence but it looks like the htc sensation xl is much more hard to brick if these two roms have been flashed.
If you just want to go back to stock , then flash a custom rom and boot it up.
Then use the function in my tool from fully booted to s-off just remeber to use the one that says your hboot version.
A note here: Hboot version 1.25 = 6.25 and 1.28 = 6.28
after that is done boot the phone up normally and run a ruu.exe file and you will end up in a stock locked rom after that.
Thanks Anders3408 i have followed your instructions and have downloaded your tool(which works like wonders).
Now i am facing another problem. My current rom is a custom one (1.56.401.2), but it tells me there are no hard disk spaces and i keep getting Contacts Storage stopped message (even after i press send report to HTC or even if i declined it....)
I have a similar problem....i'm S-ON UNLOACKED....hboot 1.28.0006 ....i can only have fastboot connection...i even tryed an RUU (RUU_RUNNYMEDE_ICS_35_S_HTC_Europe_2.31.401.2_Radio_20.70.30.0832U_3831.16.00.16_M_release_258303_signed) but still bootloop! :/ I'm driving crazy!!!
ps: tried to flash a custom recovery but doesn't work!!! (during flash i was on s-on because i couldn't flash hboot s-off )...The phone has no root.

Did you relock the bootloader before you attempted to install the RUU?
If you did and that didn't work I would recommend installing a different recovery. Most ROM developers use TWRP which you can grab here: http://teamw.in/project/twrp2/164
then try to install a basic stock rom for your carrier, or if you are on T-Mobile, AT&T or any GSM carrier (including International) use any sense based rom like Android Revolution. Re-lock the bootloader then try again. The issue might be just that you have an unsecured or "unstable" kernal and the RUU doesn't like that.

my device is unlocked now and when my phone boots it is stuck by the boot logo of HTC one then going to cyanogenmod
i managed to install TWRP but i can't install a rom because i can't put it into the sdcard
in fastboot it doesnt find it under devices and therefore i cant put any rom in it.

buy a USB OTG cable, which is available in most supermarkets or on any site if u prefer online and costs abt $5. This cable is basically micro-USB(ur charger port) to a full USB port. Put ur rom zip in the USB, go 2 TWRP and flash the rom directly from the USB.

thx for the tip, i think i will get one
ok i managed to adb push the custom rom into data/media/0 with recovery mode
how can i install it now?
EDIT: after every reboot my pushed files are gone
If I assume you're still using TWRP simply click "install zips" and navigate to the file you pushed over. The phone should do the rest and you'll have a stock kernel and os to work with.

No He cant use that RUU because his hboot version is 1.55. you need hboot 1.44 to use that ruu and the only way to install that ruu will require s-off.
from htc1guru.com
You will need S-off to run the RUU if you have a higher firmware version on your phone currently.
You may need to flash hboot 1.44 before the RUU will install. S-Off Required.

Now download this guru reset
Move the .zip file to your adb/fastboot folder of your computer
boot phone in bootloader mode, select fastboot, then connect usb cable to computer.
enter twrp recovery then open a cmd prompt from your adb/fastboot folder

Move the .zip file to your adb/fastboot folder of your computer

Today i got the ota rom from HTC but when i tried to install it it failed. I already know thats because i use a custom recovery and rooted th e phone. But i want to install the original kitkat how can i do that. I also read on xda that in order to go back i need to have s-off(i know have s-on) to install the new rom.zip but this is also impossible because in order to go back i need a ruu file.
Is there anyone who can tell me how to go back to stock and go original i dont need root privileges anymore.
Im from holland and i have unlocked m7 with vodafone sim.
Please help

Okay, custom recovery, rooted. Custom ROM? You didn't say. In any event, you will need to flash stock recovery and unroot. I think both can be done with AIO Tools. Then you can update. If on custom ROM, S-Off, flash stock recovery, downgrade HBoot, and RUU.

the file came with an installer program for downloading the exact file youre talking about so because of the installer program i cant download it.
I also looked for firewater s-off but when i download firewater its only a file not an .exe or .zip what should this extension be and how does it work because if i read the tutorial about this it doesnt say how to run the program for example in windows or in CMD mode or maybe CWM.
Please help

it's a signed HTC Rom update utility ...nothing will happen to your phone
Its simple
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2691787
I unlocked boot loader, rooted, installed TWRP recovery and superSU. My phone is Vodafone UK with 4.4.2 running but the the new update ruined my phone with some very serious and annoying bugs. Can I flash this stock rom intended for PN0710000 without changing my MID of Vodafone? Please help !
It doesnt work it starts with the program to update but within the minute it stops....Proberply because i have CWM recovery in the boot and not the Original HTC recovery and finaly because i dont have s-Off
edit I now have s-off 02:16 AM
I have did it, the S-OFF is a must and now i completely stocked my htc one. Everything works perfect also the over the air (ota) update works. Thanks to you all who made restore possible.:good:

Try re download the zip (or try an other rom)maybe you just got an false download. i also had some trouble with my m7 back in the day.
But in your case now you are stuck with no os or bootloop, i give you as advice to follow an soft unbrick method it worked for me, or if you have an usb otg cable and usb or and usb otg thumbstick, put the rom on that usb and connect it to your phone and then try to flash it (if your using twrp you have an option to choose from wich storage you want to use)
Also a piece of advice, when flashing roms, kernels etc please have your phone charged above 50% (just in case).

Can you please post the output of
Code:
fastboot getvar all
please remove your imei and serial number.
Depending on which variant of the M7 you have you probably just need a different version of recovery to install a CM rom. I think they prefer TWRP 2.7.x.x. Post the getvar and we can see what you have. then I can give you a better informed instruction. :good:
P.s also check the md5 of the rom zip you downloaded. Use this tool www.winmd5.com the correct md5 should be listed with the link you downloaded the rom from
failed to mount /dev/block/blah blah blah = needs "block:by-name" support which twrp 2.6.3.3 doesn't have
everything explained here
So update your recovery
and do what danny said above so he can confirm you have the right rom/recovery for your device.

Your getvar looks fine this rom should work fine with your device. Download this version of TWRP https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23501681358561860 (2.7.1.2). dropthe file in your fastboot folder and flash it with fastboot.
Code:
fastboot flash recovery "name-of-recovery".img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
Once thats done reflash the rom with the new version of TWRP. It should flash just fine :good:
iv managed to flash cm12.1 now, thanks guys, is there anyway i could get the HTC software back on.

There are a number of ways to return to stock software. You can simply flash a stock rom through twrp or use a stock nandroid. look for rom that match your version main. 7.19.401.22
I think there is even an lollipop 7.19.401.22 RUU for your device but I'm not sure if it will work with s-on though because it's a zip but it certainly wouldnt hurt to try it though. You will need to relock your bootloader and flash it with fastboot.
I'll edit this post with links when I find them unless some one beats me to it

Sorry I am at work so availability is scetchy. I found the ruu but it's for the older 7.19.401.2 lollipop, this won't work for you because your s-on. Downgrading firmware is only possible with s-off.
You can use this stock rom though http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one/development/rom-100-pure-stock-5-0-2-7-19-401-2-t3044041 just flash it with twrp. The thread recommends TWRP 2.8.5.X no need to relock the bootloader or anything silly, just flash it like any other rom :good:
You'll notice that this rom is also for the older 7.19.401.2 so you will need to install the last OTA update to bring your rom in line with your firmware. Flash this recovery with the same method as twrp. (Stock recovery required for installing the OTA) http://sourceforge.net/projects/htcone/files/Recovery/STOCK/7.19.401.2_recovery.img/download reboot then just go to Settings>About>Check for updates.

Okay try this. Download the OTA but select the option "Install Later" connect your m7 to your pc and browse your storage. In the download folder on your phone you should find the OTA in zip format. Copy it to your pc.
Now open the OTA zip on your pc. Inside you'll find another zip called "firmware.zip" extract it then open it. Inside you'll find a recovery.img. extract the recovery file and flash it with fastboot. Now reboot to android and continue to install the OTA. :fingers-crossed:

Yes you will need to unlock the bootloader to flash the recovery, Dont forget to fastboot erase cache after flashing the recovery that is cruicial. You don't need to be relocked to install the OTA though.
When you select install now, the device should reboot to the Stock Recovery. At first the screen will just be black for a short while. Then you'll see an image of a phone with a Green ring and download arrow. If you hold Volume up and press the power button you will see the Stock Recovery and its progress in installing the OTA.
I'm not sure why your device was hanging on boot after installing the OTA. Maybe a bad recovery.img. that's why I say to get the recovery from the OTA file.
its still not working so i mite just install twrp and restore to cm12.1

Your still stuck with this? Try starting the process over, but do not relock your bootloader at any point.
Wipe system data and cache partitions with TWRP Advanced wipe
Flash the Rom with twrp as a clean install.
Reboot and download the OTA. Choose install later, then copy the OTA to your pc. Extract the Stock Recovery and flash it with fastboot. Reboot and install the OTA.
But do not relock your boot loader. Because when you unlock the bootloader, it wipes the device including the data/preload folder. If the preload folder is not intact the OTA will fail
