[Q] I am starting to panic... Did I brick my sensation?

[Lysiana]

Hi all,

I'm a bit noobish at all of this so please bear with me.

I have a t-mobile us HTC sensation and I followed the guide to S-off, installed CWM, and then rooted the phone. I never flashed a new ROM.

This morning the OTA update popped up and having a "blond moment", I clicked update.

Now my phone is showing a little green droid holding an exclamation mark in a triangle and I don't know what to do!

Any help is really appreciated. I am really freaking out right now... it's been like this for 20 mins.

Thanks,

Lys.

Take battery out
Then turn on the phone holdin volume down.
See if you can get in to bootloader screen, then select recovery.
If you can get this far, your far from bricked.
Just install a new rom. Do a data wipe, and flash away.

Yay!

I got to recovery.

Thank you for you help. You're awesome!

All that happened is that you were denied the OTA since you are rooted. It happened to everyone back when 2.3.4 came out. If you want the OTA instead of a custom ROM then you can run the RUU for your phone and then accept the OTA.

What does RUU mean and where can I get it?
