Essential pre Requisites:
- All the data present in your phone should be backed up with the help of below mentioned steps and not with the HTC Sync as custom ROM firmwares are not supported by the HTC Sync. We recommend you to back up the data so that just in case if the data is lost or corrupted, the same can be restored easily.
SMS – Use “SMS Backup & Restore app”,
Contacts – Sync with the Gmail application,
Call Log – Call Log and Restore
Images, Songs, Videos, Files – Copy to internal / External SD Card,
APN and MMS Settings – Note down from the path “Applications > Settings > Wireless and Network > Mobile Networks > Access Point Names”
- Minimum charge left in the device should be at least 60% so as to ensure that device doesn’t get turned Off in the middle of firmware update.
- Enable the USB Debugging in your HTC Sensation from the path “Settings > Applications > Development > USB debugging”. The USB Debugging option should be ticked as shown in the below screen capture.
- Ensure that you have disabled all the antivirus suites in your computer as these tools generally interrupt the process of firmware update.
Assuming that you have now followed all the pre requisites mentioned above, you can now proceed to the next page where we will be checking out a detailed tutorial on how to apply this update.
