hi guys,

I'm completely new to all this android stuff, so please point me to the right direction since i have problems with my HTC Sensation.

1. I have HTC Sensation 4G from T-Mobile US (used with Beeline Armenia SIM card in Armenia) which had Android default version for that model - 2.3
2. I updated it with Software Update from the phone menu to version 4.0.3. and after that my wi-fi refuses to work.

I've searched numerous posts on this forum on how to fix this issue and found solution named Elegancia by Steve007 with some custom rom and other stuff.

Can you please help me with sorting this issue, i'd appreciate anything that can help me to resurrect wi-fi on my phone.

Thanks in advance

for HBOOT i have the following info displayed there:
*UNLOCKED*
PYRAMID PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT - 1.27.0000
eMMC - boot

Shannon, Ms.
From what I read in your post you downloaded a official 4.0.3 update via OTA to your device and then let it flash via the device. Now your WiFi does not work.

Also from your post I see you are HTC Dev unlocked. This tells me you need to flash the correct boot.img via fast boot because Wifi not working is a common problem for devices that a HTC Dev unlocked after flashing. What is weird though is that is a official update package and it should have flashed the boot.img.

Please post if you have the stock recovery or a custom recovery like Clockwork Mod Recovery or 4EXT Recovery.

Look on your SD card in your Download folder and see if the update file is still there, and if so post the name of the file.

Also have you tried to flash any other ROM to your device besides the update?

Hi,

Yes I'm in HTCdev Unlocked mode.
I have no idea why the official update package hasn't flashed the boot.img file.
I looked into the Downloads folder on SD card and found nothing there.

I think i don't have any recovery.
I haven't tried other ROM, the only thing i tried was PG58IMG.zip file from HBOOT menu which contained the cid T-MOB010, which my phone originally had, but i think it didn't do anything.

Thank you

The PM58IMG.zip file you flashed what was it suppose to be flashing to your device? Can you upload it to dropbox or something so I can downlosd it and take a look at it. Also I will see if I can not get a boot.img from the official T-Mobile ICS update and upload it so you can try to flash it via fastboot.
