[Q] Sensation Bootscreen hang on -any- 4.4 Rom

Captain blackbird · Jun 26, 2014

Got a wierd problem...
Actually Carbon 4.3 Rom installed - works so far
I'm also not a newbie and also linux user
All kind of geeky-stuff already done jailbreaked iPad2/ATV2
or custom Roms on GalaxyTab2, Nexus, HTC Desire, HTC Sensation

But if i try to update ANY rom based on 4.4 the Sensation hangs in bootsplash after flashing.
Did everthing usual, wipe/format partitions/clean caches even repartioning sdcard.

Googling hours after this problem in english/german forums but nothing useful.

Clockwork/TWRP/4EXT Recovery tried - actually 4EXT is installed and my favorite

Could it be a problem with HBoot 1.27 ENG S-OFF?
I had to install these former to change the bootsplash picture - with any newer it didn't work.

Negative, it's the actual 4EXT - recommended for flashing newest Carbon

hmm,
if you failed with the latest version of 4ext
then redownload the rom
check md5 sums and flash it

As i wrote in first post:
This happens with ANY 4.4 ROM
Up to 4.3 ROM all fine with any recovery

then i think it is rom related issue(4.4 roms)
i don't know what to say

No one any idea?

problem is your recovery, what version of 4ext do you have?

i told him that too
but he said he has problem only with 4.4 roms
with 4.3 everything is fine

Only other cause I could think of is the radio/firmware. Do you have Firmware 3.33? See if it'll help.http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=21711154#post21711154

i don't think so otherwise he would have also problem with 4.3 roms but he hasn't
besides that he has mentioned that he has 1.27 hboot version

Captain blackbird · Jul 5, 2014

Yes, as i said:
latest 4ext 1.0.0.6 RC2 & hboot 1.27 ENG S-Off

4.3 Roms working, only any 4.4 ROM stuck after flashing rom and/or gapps in splash screen

Captain blackbird · Jul 5, 2014

so perhaps thats the problem with 1.27 ENG
(had to downgrade to this for changing splash)
