Hey YouTube! This is a tutorial on how to install an ICS based ROM for the HTC Sensation. This method will work exactly the same way for any ICS ROM because the process is the same however the Files will be different.
For this tutorial we Installed Virtuous Inquisition v2.0.1. The ROM and the Firmware was obtained on the XDA Thread and were supplied by the developer. Now each developer has his own version so make to sure to ALWAYS download the specified one.
YOU NEED A ROOTED PHONE TO FLASH A NEW ROM!

@filaadhd14 Hey! This issue has been caused because the Firmware file must have been uncompletely downloaded or incomplete. What I suggest you to do is to connect the SD card somehow, redownload the P58IMG, connect the SD card again, go to Bootloader to install the new Firmware. Once it's done, there is a chance it still won't boot so simply wait for 15min then turn off the phone. Then reconnect the SD card to delete the Firmware image. Once you have finished that, place the SD card again...

@filaadhd14 Then go back to Bootloader mode and choose recovery. Do a Full Wipe of Cache, Dalvik and Factory Reset. Install the ROM from ZIP and DONE! This should set you up. I really hope this helped!

Hey thanks for your help my phone works now, i flashed Virtuous Quattro before and it didn´t work ... Do you know the differences between Inquisiton and Quattro ?

@Xx7inNxX That's great! As for the differences, Quattro is build from scratch Source Code from Google, so completely AOSP also this project is on hiatus. As for Inquisition, it is a ROM that has been stripped off of Sense. ATM, it has removed all Sense parts except the Flashlight and Camera since those are better. So definitely, Inquisition is the one to choose.

im trying to update my firmware but it can not find it under hboot/whitescreen

@Depu85 Hey! Sorry for the late response! As for the Firmware, once it is placed inside of the root of the SD Card and once boot into Bootloader mode, the firmware is automatically detected and VOL UP is used to install. If it does not happen that way, then make sure the file you downloaded is not corrupted and also that the name is P58IMG.zip and not another name. :)
