Hello,

I got a very strange problem,
I followed this tutorial:

trickytweaks .com/root-htc-sensation-4g-4-1-1-jb-flash-kernel-unlock-bootloader.html
trickytweaks .com/install-4-1-2-jelly-bean-htc-sensation-4g-cyanogenmod-10-rom.html

to flash my HTC Sensation (EU), anyway I followed everything in unlocking bootloader but rooting :(
So I was just flashing the now accessable TRWRP 2.5 and gone ahead to flash the Rom with gapps without thinking about the Root :(

now it seems like my device is bricked.

Sorry for this Noob question but what to do :(?

if you can boot into bootloader post the details
probably you are on S-ON

It's unlocked via HTC-Dev so it's not a real s-off :/

Anyway at least I can still access the Recovery

Bootloader says:

*****Unlocked****
Pyramid PUT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-1.27.0000
eMMC-boot
Jan 13 2012

HBOOT

______

Fastboot
Recovery
Factory Reset
Simlock

you aren't bricked since you can boot into bootloader
install 4ext recovery
enable smartflash from it(because you are on S-ON)
flash the rom
