Sensation asian rom

ok guys this is my first thread here, I just got my HTC sensation and its the Asian version, I've heard that European version got updated and the arabic updated rom just leaked, I'm just worried that HTC won't update the asian version as frequent as the other versions, was it a mistake to get the asian version? I know all should be fine if HTC did as promised and unlocked the bootloader but what if it didn't, the thing is it's a very expensive smartphone this and it's a bit worrying at the moment.

I have the same problem as my supplier didn't specify that it was the Asian version. Don't want to send it back because I am addicted to the phone.
Hope that when the boot loader is unlocked, the clever developers will be able to find a way to create a gold card for the Sensation and then it can be flashed to the European version.

I thought the goldcard thing was for locked versions only? I'm fairly new to this.

From wot I have read, to flash the phone to a different version you need to change the cid and the only way to do that is by using a goldcard update. The ruu exe for the European version has been leaked but I do not think it will work. Haven't tried it though so I could be wrong and if I find out it just works I will do it immediately.
Not done too much with roms myself, just tried some roms on my old HTC hero before moving to the Sensation.

Sadly it won't work, for an official RUU to work with our asian version it has to has the numbers X.707.X in it (bootloader version or something), the main thing that bugs me right now and that needs immediate fixing is the sound off thing, for random reasons being it just playing a video file or using some app, the whole phone goes silent and the volume rocker turns into Media mode, I read that this is a known issue and I think it should be easily fixed with an update, I've missed a couple of phone calls already because of that

I got an update yesterday..1.28.707.2 to 1.35.707.1
System is faster and smoother, and there is no lag in fruit ninja hd..When i was on 1.28 it was always laggy...
Bootloader version updated to 1.17.0011,DATE Jun 2,and it also locked..
RADIO updated to 10.43a.9007.00U_10.51.9007.27_M3

mine is currently 707.2 (before the update) not 707.1, or was yours updated to 707.1 ? oh and did the update fix the sound off issue, you know the one where everything goes silent on the phone and you have to call voice mail to resolve it?

HTC One S - RUU 2.35 HERE!

RUU 2.35 (TMOBILE US) for the HTC One S is now available at long last.
If you've been having trouble getting back to stock, but can't due to having HBOOT 1.14.0004 from the latest OTA... RUU 2.35 is finally here to get you back to the latest US T-Mobile Stock image.
Thanks to dave87everett for being able to get RUU 2.35. Here is the link to his post at HTCOneForum.com
And his direct link to the file.
I also put it up at FileHosting.org and FileDropper.com in case there are problems with that first link.
FYI: The first page in the HTCOneForum thread I linked above has instructions for getting back to stock.
I can confirm this works as I'm finally back to stock after a month of frustration... here is a screenshot.

This will get you back to stock (2nd OTA update v2.35) It's the factory ROM and it'll work just like you bought it and did the latest 2 OTA updates.
What I believe broke Wifi for certain ROMS was that 2nd OTA update with upgraded Hboot to 1.14 (and maybe a radio or something). This RUU is Hboot 1.14 which is the same as getting that second update.
A lot of the custom ROMs Wifi didn't work with this...... and if this was the reason your Wifi wasn't working, this update won't help. I'm not sure if there were different Wifi issues with different solutions.
I had the same problem with the Wifi not working on the CM nightlies and a lot of other ROMs. The only ROM that I was able to use Wifi with was the Unofficial AKOP Jelly Bean Rom. So you may try that.
Hope that helps.

Haha. Thank the guy who posted it here. I was so excited that I even sent him $10 to help offset what it cost him to get it. (Made sure it worked first). I've been waiting for it for a month or so.
I wanted to try Jelly Bean, and while the customs ROM's are great (I tried 5 or 6 of them), they just aren't ready for use as a daily driver yet in my opinion. Big issues for me being the HTC camera (which is really good), and battery life (I was dying by mid afternoon rather then bedtime which was a deal breaker for me). Otherwise a few of the custom ROMs are pretty solid.
So I decided to go back to stock. Opps, Uh, yeah, not so easy with this phone if you did the latest OTA before rooting.
After hours of research, I finally found the answer. I could supercid and do the Euro RUU, or wait for the T-Mobile RUU 2.35. I didn't want to go Euro route, though I almost was ready to before I found this. I really wanted to get back to stock T-Mobile because I saw that HTC announced they are releasing the official Jelly Bean update this month. Though I'm guessing it'll be longer for T-Mobile to get it tweaked with their junk and push it out.
Finally on Monday I found that thread I mentioned above. The guy said he was working on getting the RUU. The next day he posted it. I was like "OMGOMGOMGOMG!!!" just like you :victory:. Been back on it for 24 hours now. Stock is faster, way more stable, everything works, and the battery life is much much better than any of the ROMs I tried.
Glad I'm not the only who who's super excited

Also, once it updates, you can't go back to previous hboot versions and the older RUU's won't work. Only RUU 2.35 or later will (I think the latest EURO one works too).

Thanks for this, will come in handy if I need to exchange four warranty. Thanks again.

Thank the freaking lord. I was about to go insane with no wifi. You are awesome!

Hi,
can this RUU be used on S3 device from Europe to get 4.0.4 and sense 4.1 ???

You posted this the day after I gave up on this RUU and used supercid to flash the latest EU -_-
Oddly enough, I was having wifi troubles on my 1.06 (or was it 09?) HBOOT but it's working flawlessly now. Before it would rapidly switch back and forth between scanning, connecting, and disconnected. After I flashed the EU, I started loading custom ROMs and Viper, TrickDroid, and CM10 have all worked much better with this HBOOT/radio than before. Thanks for this RUU though, I'm sure it'll come in handy for when T-mobile finally pushes JB OTA. Most of us will have to return to this to flash it I'm sure

thanks, I wait so long...

Or do it with flashable zip (contains multiple). In the radio topic of dev section

But still can't work, it stop on reading and no response... Maybe it's also because the HBOOT
At last, I just can wait till the T-MOBILE release the JB's RUU to solve~

Any guide on how to? If I s-off with hboot 2.21, can I upgrade it back to hboot 2.22 so it works?

You need to have the Firmware.zip with the hboot 2.22 to upgrade again, you will find it in the OTA file for example.
You did not say anything about the rom / OTA version (cidnum) that is installed on your mini, but you will need the exact version from the CID, that is now displayed on your Mini !!! For example HTC__001 !
I do not have the hboot 2.22, but i did a firmware flash from hboot 2.21 to hboot 2.19 and back again to hboot 2.21 so I think it should work, but I am S-OFF already !!!
Maybe there is someone around here with experiance of hboot 2.22 and knows which kitkat version/OTA has the needet frimware.zip file.
I only know about the different hboots 2.19 and 2.21 because I flashed these to get my 4.4.2 update.
So be sure you have your version of files that you have now and want back after S-OFF
Try this
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip firmware.zip (maybe there is a notice that you should do this a second time, then you net to type line 2 again!)
fastboot reboot
As I am not an expert, I don´t know for sure if that works, sorry

You really don't even need s-off? Only thing its good for is mess in **** up.lol

I have stock AT&T rooted. Just took the ota and rooted. Not sure how I can extract the hboot now. But there are apps like busybox that I can't install because I'm not s-off

There are versions on play store of busy box that install from recovery. Maybe "busybox on the rails".

Yea, sorry for not telling you. I already s-off it with rumrunner. I just had to flash a different rom that has unsecured kernel. Thanks though. And also ty for ur ruu extracted files. I downloaded it and flashed the hboot then took the ruu back a while ago when my phone didn't work.

Ive been trying ages to s-off my rooted HTC One Mini (m4) just so I can removed the startup sound, and move some notification sounds into the system notification folder and do other things with the system and remove some bloatware. Here is my setup:
HTC one Mini (M4) Rooted
Stock ROM - Meteor Ireland
Version: 4.3 HTC sense Version 5.5
HBoot: 2.21 0000
Tried Fire Water looks like its going through motions and then says whelp phone is not supported DO NOT COME TO IRC ASKING FOR UPDATES OR ETAS! ... if we are able to fix this issue, it will be announced ********** ********** bye bye.....sorry it didn't work out
Then I tried revone but that failed error = 1 after typing ./revone -P
im stuck now, dunno what to do/try - I dont really want to go down road of wiping/installing different rom if i can help it - phone is too good to brick!

Rumrunner will s-off your device even after 4.4.2 update.

well what dya know tried rum runner (soju.exe) again today an got a whole lot of new words like 'hmm cap is on tighter than expected' (didnt get that yesterday when I tried it out) and I think (not sure until I try to right to system file later) that it might have done it!

My custom kernel has selinux disabled so there's really no need for s-off.

[Q] Bootloop. No recovery.

A friend owns this. Somehow the phone went into bootloop. Just shows the htc logo and then turns off and on, again shows the htc logo. Plus theres no recovery. When i tried going into the recovery a red error drawn up on a phone appeared, thus couldnt enter into recovery.
Phone is stock. Non rooted, nothing modified, tweaked. Bootloader locked.
[Picture attached just incase if its needed]

Solution
OK. For this you gonna need to unlock Bootloader. Use this

.
WARNING: It will Factory Reset his device!
Then download any recovery (CWM, TWRP or 4EXT), and flash it through fastboot.
There is the complete guide of how to do that:

I suspect the phone has been xtc clipped to remove s-on and sim unlock. In any case the exclamation mark is a stock recovery. If you run a ruu (ROM update utility) you will restore the phone to factory settings. Hboot does not need unlocked as you have s-off

Simply running the ruu will fix it?

Its quite simple tell me your region of the world/carrier the phone was on if you know it. We will locate the correct software version and you will download it. Plug phone into the PC In hboot mode and run the program. It will do its business and flash factory software. Reboot and done all going well

@heavy_metal_man I live in Pakistan but i guess as long as the ruu is not locked to an operator, its gonna work right?
Plus i found this. Indian one. This is Gingerbread right and not ics? Or any other reccommendation?
thanks man.

Yeah man that's all. If it fails then we can extract the file required and give it to hboot manually, but we shouldn't have to all going well
