Have searched the forum, but can't find out what I'm doing wrong... something very obvious I bet!!!

Holding down the Vol-Down button and powering on doesn't cause the phone to go into recovery mode - it just boots normally - so I can't see if S-OFF, etc, is set?

This is a Vodafone Sensation that is a week old.

Anyone point me at my error?

Pretty much all stock phones come with S-ON unless specified otherwise.

If they shipped with S-OFF there would be no NAND Security.

Hi,

Please I need help rooting my htc sensation. I have installed the CWM5827.img using HTC One X, following all the guidelines.But my htc sensation does not boot into recovery mode in order to flash the CWM5827. It shows the "HALT" icon afterwards.

Any help pls.:(

To boot into recovery you pull battery put battery back in, press volume down and power at the same time and hold . Then you should see the boot loader come up and get into recovery mode. This should work. Hope this helps. Best wishes.if this does NOT work, what EXACTLY happens when you perform these steps? Please post your results. Perhaps it can help someone solve your issue better if you post your results you are experiencing when doing these steps. Does it only say HALT? Is there a symbol with it? I hope you get your issue resolved soon !

My phone is kind of picky when getting it into recovery. I have to hit the volume down key just after the power button or it just powers on the phone. This boots into bootloader then use volume down to choose recovery and power button to select.

    You have to take battery out - reinsert
    then hold volume down and power it on
