HTC Sensation Update to 1.5?

[HeyBob]

I just got a notification of a HTC Software update.

Anyone know what that's about? I think it updated to 1.5...

Since the update I've been trying to get the phone to reboot as it usually does with success. So whatever the update did I think it's working.

i tried installing it and when the phone resets it gets stuck at a black screen with a blue android with a exclmation mark in the middle of a triangle. i have heard of rooted and unrooted phones having this problem. not sure what what that screen means. any ideas?

I got the update and installed it. So far, there are no bugs that i can find.

I've had the upgrade for a few days now and no problems....

I have to say, it feels faster. Definitely more stable. I haven't had any of the 'white htc' screens pop up on me. I'm happy.

Feels faster but I didn't have green lines on my camera before the update and now I do. ETF.

My Sensation is s-off. Phone gets stuck on Android and ! sign screen. Anybody know why? I'm guessing it's cause it's s-off..

The update had a new hboot in it so it locked your bootloader.

Try to boot into the bootloader and flash this hboot I attached. This is the 1.17 ENG hboot.

So did this work? did you get update after flashing?

devgru82 has a post here about updating if you have your S-OFF on your Sensation, worked great on my wife's phone.

Nope - I am still getting the white htc screens.... happens randomly when I back out of apps like Google maps or mail or whatever. :'(

Yep, me too.

But, the phone seems a lot more slick, everything smooth and feels much quicker. I'll live with it.
