[Q] Sensation bricked for flashing wrong kernel.

[Lordhermex]

Ok mi new and i think i bricked the Htc..

I try to make the S-off and i used the tool called " htc one x all in one kit" and when make a flash recovery for CWN 5.82.7 touch the device was reset.. But i think a made a mistake to flash to the kernel 2.6.394.. Cuz when i make that the device dont boot and only see a white htc freeze screen.

The recovery works fine.. I unlocked the bootloader but in cant fix it.. I need a custom kernel for this ? And where i can find it.

Please help.. Only had this device 15 days and i dont know if warranty can claim this.

if you can get to recovery just flash a stock rooted rom it includes a kernel

hmm Are you SOFF ? or just htc-dev unlocked ?
anyways first to get out of the stuck screen

do this
extract the boot.img from the CM9-RC1 zip file
keep that in adb/fastboot folder
then flash it from phone connected in fastboot
"fastboot flash boot boot.img" (remove quotes)

alternatively
use the tool kit to use this boot image and flash it 9how? --i dont know coz i havent used it )

Or you could just run a RUU if the method above is too difficult.

to get wifi working

get 4EXT recovery..
if you already have it

then reflash the rom ..without any wipe (remeber dont do any wipe) ..but just before flashing rom ...enable smartflash in 4EXT->tools
that would solve your wifi issue

Why use the HTC one x toolkit?

Sent From My Sexy Sensation Running Aokp.

because he probably did what I just did. A quick google search on how to root a HTC Sensation (XE) will bring up a page saying you can use this tool for the Sensation, even though the tool is for the One X.

i did the exact same thing he did, as the tool says you should flash the Kernel. meaning I too am stuck with a phone that get stuck on the HTc white splash screen...

i don't know about this guy but my phone says:

*** UNLOCKED ***
PYRAMID PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-1.29.0000
eMMC-boot

and it goes to the white splash screen if you select any of the options...

really need some help too D: !!!!

If your phones boot loader is unlocked
With the htcdev unlock tool and your already using 4ext then make sure smart flash is enabled (recovery > tools > enable smart flash) then do a full wipe and reflash the rom.

One would think that with so many tutorials laying here this can't happen...

well, some of us, like myself didn't use a guide from this site. but come here to look for our solution. for example the guide I followed made no mention of this 4ext...

hell, even after spending my day trying to fix my phone, I still don't know how to install a ROM properly...

 

[Terepin]

But that's your problem you used tutorial and even tools for completely different phone. Furthermore, you didn't read tutorials here, but you have the nerve to crawl here to find help. That's hypocritical to say at least. That being said, XDA's purpose is NOT to fix your problems that arised from your inability to think before you act. If it's tutorials weren't good enough for you then, it's help can't be enough for you now.

Then completely start fresh.. Check for "Flashing roms with SON" guide by asskickar in sensation general section..

Follow the guide to the letter
