this is for htc Sensation Devices
Hboot
- in bootloader screen , if it displays on top :
- Revolutionary in Pink , then you have the Revolutionary unlocked hboot v1.17.1111 or 1.27.1100
- locked in Pink , then you have an original locked hboot like 1.18 or 1.27.0000 ( due to flashing an RUU or OTA )
- Unlocked in Pink , then someone unlocked the original locked hboot above by using htc dev , or super tool ,... etc
- Relocked in Pink , then someone relocked the unlocked bootloader above , and when relocked it will not show " locked " anymoe , it will show " relocked " to reflect that you have unlocked your bootloader before
- locked hboot means you can't use fastboot write commands , like flashing recovery !
1) Easy Method for Installing ICS Custom Roms ( S-ON Devices with hboot 1.27.0000 )
Avaliable Alternatives
- Update
- you can S-OFF or downgrade using hardware S-OFF by using a hardware called Jtag , i didn't investigate that much , so check it out yourself , one member reported using it successfully to downgrade hboot 1.27.0000 to 1.18 . i think this would void your warranty because all S-OFF using hardware are permanent ( you can't S-ON again i guess ) ,
- my advise is to wait for a solution before using htc dev , because you never know the requirements of this solution , and what complications htc dev would make , this is just to know your alternatives if solution don't come or canceled , it is your choice to make
- for members stuck with S-ON and hboot 1.27.0000 , you can install either of the following :
- install Custom Recovery and SU with your Existing official ICS software or ICS OTA
- install any custom ICS Roms ( on condition it has the same firmware of your existing RUU or OTA )
- note that almost same bugs exist in both ICS OTA and ICS custom roms ,so no big difference ( except for SU APK's )
- you will not be able to change or flash any Firmware , htc dev don't allow flashing of firmware ( like 3.32 or 1.17 , ...etc ) , it just unlocks few bootloader options not all of them
- So for example , if your software number in about phone says 3.32.x.x , you have to install cutom rom that is based on 3.32 firmware only ( because that is your existing firmware that is flashed by the RUU or OTA ) , not a higher firmware version" i guess , not sure for higher versions " if it is issued in future , or a lower firmware like GB
- this means also you will not be able to install GB custom rom or RUU
Installation ( S-ON with hboot 1.27.0000 )
- the procedure is the same as installing ICS for S-OFF devices , except for the following differences :
- you need first to unlocked Bootloader
- you will not flash firmware ( Firmware of the custom Rom and phone software version must be identical )
- unlocked Bootloader using htc dev ( may or could void your warranty ) or Super tool or Check this Wildfire S tool for UNLOCK your hboot WITHOUT voiding your warranty or wipe your data ( if it is legal to use them )
- you can install any other ICS custom rom with the same firmware base
- most ICS Custom Roms now are based on firmware 3.32 , so if your installed ICS RUU or OTA have an older Base then install ICS RUU or OTA to have firmware base 3.32 .
- if you prefer to stay on older ICS RUU firmware ,then choose suitable older custom Rom with same firmware version as the RUU
- first i suggest to start with ICS ARHD 6.6.x ( developer of the rom and firmware Package is the same , more compatibility ) , then later on you can choose the ICS rom you like
- Download ICS Custom Rom , i prefer ARHD 6.6.x as a start here ( it is based on firmware 3.32 ) http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1098849
- Download super wipe , it is in the same ARHD link
- you don't need or allowed to install Firmware so Firmware flash is skipped for S-ON devices
- install Recovery ( 4EXT Recovery which is required by a lot of ICS Roms for choices during installation like kernel and processor speed , ...etc )
- ICS installation Guides are
- install ICS as follows
- put the two file on the root of your SD Card
- boot into recovery ( remove Battery , put it back , and boot into bootloader by press and hold volume downd then press and hold power , choose recovery )
- flashed super wipe zip ( it will wipe and reboot back to recovery by itself )
- flashed the ARHD Rom in recovery , done
- you may need to flash the boot.img of the Custom rom if you get wifi error or the Rom has customkernel , flash it as shown in OP Post # 1 under title " Custom Rom Flash .... "
- if the Rom have more than a kernel to choose , then flash the boot.img for the kernel you choosed during installation
2) Easy Method for Installing ICS Custom Roms ( S-OFF Devices )
- Works for S-OFF devices with any hboot , including locked hboots as a result of flashing RUU's ( like 1.18 and 1.27.0000 ) , if you have problems with hboot 1.18 then flash firmware 1.17 ( it will install Revolutionary hboot 1.17.1111 )
- first i suggest to start with ICS ARHD 6.6.x ( developer of the rom and firmware Package is the same , more compatibility ) , then later on you can choose the ICS rom you like
- install Recovery ( 4EXT Recovery which is required by a lot of ICS Roms for choices during installation like kernel and processor speed , ...etc )
- ICS installation Guides are
- i installed ICS as follows
- put the three file on the root of your SD Card
- from home screen booted into recovery
- flashed super wipe zip ( it will wipe and reboot back to recovery by itself )
- flashed the ARHD Rom in recovery
- reboot from recovery into bootloader ( if it give a black screen , then remove Battery , put it back , and boot into bootloader by press and hold volume downd then press and hold power )
- when it booted into bootloader it asked to update , i choose yes
- done
