[RADIO][24 Nov 2011] HTC Sensation Radios [PG58IMG.zip]
Code:
/* I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
* thermonuclear war, or the end of the world. Please do some research
* if you have any concerns about flashing a radio before flashing it!
* YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if you point the
* finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you. */
How to Flash:
In order for this to work, the HTC Sensation needs to be S-OFF. Flashing the radio with a corrupt file or interrupting the flash, can brick the device, please proceed with caution.
Download the your choice of radio for the HTC Sensation.
Make sure the filename is PG58IMG.zip exactly or it will not work and copy it to the same folder as adb (the /platform-tools folder within the Android SDK folder).
Connect the HTC Sensation to the computer via USB.
On the computer, open terminal and run the following commands:
Phone | HTC One X S720e ROM | Stock 3.14.401.31 Kernel | ncx_314_v8_SENSE Freq | min 51 max 1500 governor ondemand Radio | 5.1204.162.29 HBoot | 1.39.0000 s-off Headset | Beats Pro
First, thank you for the write up and radio links and contribution to all of this.
Now for my question: Wouldn't fastboot be easier and safer?
1 - Copy the .img to your /sdk/tools folder (or whatever folder depending on computer OS). Verify MD5.
2 - Boot into bootloader (Vol Down + Pwr).
3 - Navigate to Fastboot (Vol down to Fastboot and press Pwr). Make sure your phone says Fastboot USB.
4 - Open command promt (or terminal depending on OS)in folder you put file.
5 - Type:
Code:
fastboot flash radio xxxx.img
xxxx is radio name.
I find this faster and safer. I find SDCards can corrupt the file easier than anything else therefore leaving the file on your computer to flash from is one less transfer and possible issue. As we all know, the 2 things that have the greatest chance of bricking a device are your Radio and Bootloader images.

Nexus 4 - CM10.1 with Faux Kernel TMO SGSIII - CM10.1 HTC One S - Sold TMO SGSII - Sold Sensation 4G - Sold MT4G - Got a new one! Stock 2.3.5 with root. Nexus One - CM9! Vibrant - Let in-law use it. Just wasn't cutting it for me. MyTouch3G Slide - Returned MyTouch 3G - Sold G1 - Sold
Fastboot probably won't be available at first, htc locked that down pretty tight for signed packages, this method is certain to work when s-off is released...
When eng s-off arrives, that should be a different story :P
