Hi,
I recently installed Vertigo's Total Senseless v4.1.1 on my HTC Sensation XL, but it's quite buggy. I would like to install the STOCK Android on it again, just the way it was when I first got it. Is it possible? I have tried finding the stock ROM but they all seem modified as well. I just want the clean ORIGINAL version and preferably how to do it (steps to install it).
Anyone out there willing to help?
Thanks a lot!

Hey guys
I couldn't find anything about this.
Is it possible to get the lock screen and the weather app from the Sensation on our IS without flashing a different ROM?
I like the stock ROM but I want that lock screen and the weather app...

Thanks. I cant get it to work though.
Flashed the lockscreen and weather app with CWM. Killed my phone. Just startet looping at the "HTC quietly brilliant" screen.
No problem to fix and go back off course but still...
Can anyone tell me how to get it to work?
I tried flashing CoreDroid. It looks very nice and have many of the things i want. But i want it in the stock ROM.
Anyone can give my a kind of idiot guide to emplement some 3.0 stuff in my IS?
Me too, I'm new to customising Android. I have done iphones and psp in the past but the information is not clear on this topic and seems to be all over the place and spread accross many topics.
I currenty have flashed the standard virgin Rom to debrand my IS and I have made it s-off and its now rooted with clockwork mod recovery installed. I would like to install some Denver 3 stuff to the standard Rom but being a noob I'm reluctant to try with out a better understanding.
Could someone please give us noobs a straight forward guide in doing this.
Cheers
Pat.

why don't you try the Virtuous Unity 1.25.0 Sense 3.0 based on Pyramid?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1122805
It works very well for people who like sense!
Yeah just downloaded it and about to give it a shot. I hope I dont screw up my phone. Never done this before.
I just figured it would be easier to add the stuff to an existing rom rather than flash a complete custom one.
Cheers
Pat
I personaly don't like the Sense 3.0 to much animation which gets kind of boaring after some time and sucks performance and battery!
Just my oppinion
well, with a Nabdroid Backup you should ot be worried to try a new ROM as you can always go back!
I tried the first relase of the Cyanogen ROM and that's the one for me so far.
I already liked the stock ROM on the Nexus S - but not the device itself.
So the Cyanogen ist very close - but better!
Is it easy to do? the instructions seem simple enough. I have made a back up of my existing rom, so if something goes wrong I can re flash my original rom and be back to square 1 correct.
Correct - it is a full image.
You go back exactly to the point where you created the recovery.
I love this feature - it makes it possible to try out a different ROM without loosing all the work you did on the ROM.
Last thing before I do it. It says to do a full wipe? Is this done in the recovery menu? do I do wipe data/factory reset as well as wipe cache partition?
Or is this a different thing all together?
Cheers
PAt
A wipe data/factory reset is sufficient. People will say do it three times, but you only have to do it once.

All good, alreay done it and applied the fix for the soft buttons.
I was thinking, Apparently the incredible s comes with all of Australias maps pre installed. Now that I have flashed this rom, would I have lost these and if so is there a way to get these onto my system
Cheers
Pat
Im really just after the lock screen and the weather widget. The other stuff imnot fussed about.
The resolution on the unity rom is a bit funny. It all functions great tho.
I tried the android revolution HD and that worked except for the market wouldnt download.
Is there a way to just flash the lock screen and widgets to a stock un modified virgin au ROM?
Cheers
Pat
Would HIGHLY recommend this ROM:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1088498
There's nothing different to the Stock Rom apart from the fact it runs alot more smoothly.
You then install this:-
•HTC Sense 3.0 "All in 1" (version 0.3) for Android Revolution HD 1.0.x
And voila - Sense 3.0
Thats the one I had and the market didnt work, formated and flashed it 3 times.
hello guys! im also a newbie here(esp in android) but i also want to S-off my incredible S, i know that there are already several topics regarding s-off but honestly i dont know how to perfom it and im really afraid to brick my phone, can you please help me guys! any help will be greatly appreciated! thanks : )
Is there a way to get all the features of the 3.0 sense into my phone via ROM?
I have searched other places...some of them dont work on my phone. I am starting to think that there are alot of partial 3.0 roms out there
Am I right?
I seen a Youtube video where someone had pretty much ALL the features. I tried looking for it but cant find it.
Is there such thing?

please take some time out and read through these forums before you venture installing custom roms.
your statement above obviously shows you have not read much and this could damage your phone and/or the patience of certain members here
am sure you'll have all the answers you need if you do look around
You can also use revolution HD with sense 3.0 add-ons - most 3.0 improvements are there. For truly 3.0 experience, however, Virtuous Unity rom is better.
Help me pleae
ClockworkMod recovery wont let me in my recovery settings. In fact the second I go to it from ROM manager the screen goes black and then takes me to my HTC screen and just stays there.
Pressing the down volume button and the power button gives me the recovery option, but will do the same exact thing.
I cant even go back to factory settings.
I went to go flash this rom when it happened, I probably did it wrong but would like to just restore my origional phone/settings and just forget about this whole
flashing rom idea.
PLEASE help me. How do I get to my restore so I can go back to my old settings???
Use the latest 4EXTRecovery http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1104765
ClockWork does not allow latest ROM flashing
Thanks , got it figured out. Finally
Ohh thats why I wasnt able to flash it.. I found that out the hard way until someone told me about 4EXT. It worked like a charm

Kudos to you for being interested in rooting :good:
Shiromaru already answered the question here but why would you choose to remain on STOCK??? In the Android Development Thread of the HTC Incredible S, we have a TON of ROMs for use. They can be ICS with Sense 3.6. There can be AOSP or AOKP ICS. Theres Sense 4.X with ICS. Theres AOSP Jellybean 4.1.1 to 4.2.2. Theres really a lot to try. If you want to keep the (****y (excuse my language)) Sense 3.6 then u can try ARHD which is very stable. Theres also Blackout ROM and Incredible Bliss. If you want Sense 4.X you can try Nik_Project_X_Rebirth or Sabsa Prime. All of these ROMs have been modified to improve youre over all experience on the phone. I really would suggest you flash a custom ROM.

I tried ARHD bt after some days of installation of ROM if u restart the phone, many apps start crashing. Also gallery and music show no containts.
I tried reflashing but same happened again.

Try niks Rom v3.0 it works fine for me,good battery life + super fast performance with lil overclock

Rooting via htcdev will not give you s_off. That means every time you install a custom Rom you have manually flash the boot image using a utility called fastboot. And you can't change radios either. However for an initial root experience go right ahead with htcdev method and once you are comfortable you may follow guides in how to downgrade and then get root and soff using the revolutionary method. You may then also want to change your bootloader.
If you are going to root your phone then it makes no sense (pun intended) to remain with stock Rom. And as listed here in earlier post there are a plethora of roms to choose from.

Hi, I'm new here and new also to rooting etc.
I have successfully unlocked and rooted my M7 and using TWRP recovery.
I am under the impression you can't update OTA when rooted, I would like a standard ROM with sense 6, but I just have a couple of questions....
1. Could someone supply a link to the best stable Sense 6 ROM suitable for an unlocked UK M7?
2. Could you also explain how to install the ROM using some not too technical language
Thanks for your help

I cant tell you much as I am using Miui rom and i have killed an M7 a while back but Viper ROm is the best I have used and that is Sense 6. Bare in mind I have not used a Sense 6 rom at all but last Viper i used was 5.5 and it was great.
There is Android Revolution HD, im not sure if this is Sense 6 but is is a custom rom as close to stock that you can get.
Just download the ZIP and enter your receovery and flash, it is simple as. Just dont wipe internal SD card..

So I download the zip file on my computer, where do I save it on my phone, bearing in mind it doesn't have an SD card?
Thanks for your help by the way

Just place it on the internal memory of the phone. Don't put it in any folders. Then boot into TWRP, select "Install zip from SD card" (the internal space paritition is labelled as "sdcard" due to the way android works), find the zip and install it.
Awesome, I guess I don't delete the original ROM then?

You would be well advised to make a back up of your original rom first. If something goes wrong you can go back to it, may be hard to find it on the web if you dont.
Best advice. Do a nandroid backup of your Rom now and try a few different ones. Personally I like android revolution hd. If you are going to try that use twrp 2.6.3.3. It doesn't like other versions very much

I know you've asked for sense roms, but I would definitely give some aosp roms a try. I've always liked aosp better. That said, it seems like development for this phone leans more towards sense based roms and definitely sense kernels. Only a couple of aosp kernels to choose from. I'm new to this phone (switched to Tmo a couple months ago and didn't want to buy a new phone on payments), but I was disappointed to see that after being out for a year the aosp development was somewhat lacking.
Hi guys,
I'm going to buy a HTC One M7 shortly and I'd like to know what I can do the best. Currently I've got a HTC Sensation XE with this ROM, a pretty vanilla Android version without Sense. I'd like to have something similar on the M7, but with the latest supported Android version (4.4.x) and with a auto update functionality so I don't have to do updates manually in the future.
I've spend a day to get everything ready on my Sensation, so I'm not that good with customs ROMs and stuff. Hereby my questions:
1) Which ROM for the M7 is good maintained, have regularly good stable updates, can update automatically, don't have Sense, is pretty much vanilla Android, have good performance, have good battery time, is based on the latest Android version and if there comes a new major Android version it can be updated automatically to it.
2) What is the best method to install the custom ROM?
3) What is the best method to root the phone?
4) Is it advised to install a custom kernel? What are the advantages of it?
5) Is it advised to use the Cyanogenmod installer? Does this install what I want as described in my first question?
6) I've read something about a custom "radio", this can optimize the wifi/3g/4g signals, is this a good idea?
I'm sorry for my beginner questions, I hope somebody can help me out with this!
Thanks in advance! Regards,
Roy

Ok first off there is no Best anything it is all up to you to try them out and make up your own mind.
If you want something that can be updated right away then get a Nexus.
Now all the info you want can be found by searching. Please do so.
