    Thread [solved] Trouble installing Fastboot driver

    Trying to unlock my Z3 compact bootloader and I'm stuck on trying to install the ADB Fastboot driver. I get the following error when I try to install through Device Manager: "The hash for the file is not present in the specified catalog file. The file is likely corrupt or the victim of...

    Aha, thanks! Like I said: long week. I now have 4EXT working properly :)

    Post [HELP THREAD] HTC Sensation | Ask any question | Noob friendly.

    Thanks for the reply. I tried flashing 4EXT from fastboot/bootloader as per the instructions in this thread. When I got to the "fastboot flash recovery.img" step I got an error message in my command prompt window: unknown partition 'recovery.img' error: cannot determine image filename for...

    Post [HELP THREAD] HTC Sensation | Ask any question | Noob friendly.

    So I recently got a new Sensation to replace my dead Sensation, and was hoping to root the new phone, flash CyanogenMod 10 and restore my Nandroid backup with all my old data. Apparently things have changed in the year and a half since I got my first Sensation. My new one came with HBOOT 1.29...

    Post [Q] Restoring Nandroid backup to a new phone: Any difference between Z710e and Z715e?

    Awesome, thanks very much. So there should be no problem regardless of which Sensation I buy, right? In which case I'll take your advice and get whichever is cheaper.

    Post [Q] Restoring Nandroid backup to a new phone: Any difference between Z710e and Z715e?

    As I understand it the Z715e has slightly upgraded hardware, with 1.5GHz instead of the Z710e's 1.2GHz. I'm just trying to figure out whether this might cause problems if I try to restore a Z710e backup to a Z715e phone. I haven't actually bought a new phone yet. Installing the same ROM on my...

    Post [Q] Restoring Nandroid backup to a new phone: Any difference between Z710e and Z715e?

    Thanks for the reply, but what do you mean by "it"? Are you referring to restoring to a new Z710e, or a Z715e? Do you know if the latter will work as well as the former?

    Thread [Q] Restoring Nandroid backup to a new phone: Any difference between Z710e and Z715e?

    I accidentally spilled a drink on my Sensation while travelling. It's now completely dead, but I managed to do a full Nandroid backup before it stopped functioning. (Even better, my travel insurance covers accidental damage and is paying out enough to replace the phone!) I was considering...

    Post [Q] Can't delete Mms.odex, "No such file or directory"

    Permissions didn't help, but I've managed to track down another Mms.apk file that works well enough - messages don't integrate properly with HTC's Messaging app, but I can send and receive MMS. I'm going to keep looking for a better apk but at least this one functions!

    These look fantastic, just ordered one off Amazon as that eBay seller wouldn't ship to my location.

    Post [Q] Can't delete Mms.odex, "No such file or directory"

    I know it's not ideal, but this method seems to work just fine; I've read a bunch of Japanese blogs that explain this is how to get MMS working with Softbank, and people on forums elsewhere say it's worked for them. How do I do that? I'm pretty new to all this, two days ago I was Googling where...

    Thread [Q] Can't delete Mms.odex, "No such file or directory"

    I'm trying to use my new Sensation with the SIM from my Japanese iPhone, which requires replacing the stock Mms.apk with one that works with Softbank. That much I managed to do. Now when I try to open the Messaging app it crashes immediately, which is apparently normal and means I need to delete...

    Post [Q] No signal on unlocked HTC Sensation

    My phone seems to be working now but I'm not sure why. After my last post, I put my SIM in my Sensation and left it overnight on my desk to see if it would find a signal. No luck; I woke up and it was still saying No Service. I put it in my pocket and cycled to work, and when I got there my...

    Post [Q] No signal on unlocked HTC Sensation

    To clarify, when my phone found a network it wasn't just a brief flash of reception - it stayed connected and fully functional until I took out the battery. I haven't seen it connect to anything since. But yeah, would be incredibly grateful if anyone could help out.
