Welcome to the forums.
For Sensation, I highly suggest Android Revolution HD™ by Mike1986.
All you need to know about the ROM, among other things related can be found there as well.

Hi,
Welcome.
You need to s-off and root first.
Go HERE
This is the same place to get back to s-on.
ARHD ROMS are very close to stock and stable.
Go HERE
Updates are provided by mike well before HTC release anything,so there is no need to go back to stock,unless you have a warranty issue.
Good luck.
Read carefully before you try anything you are unsure of.

A rom is installed via the 'recovery' program, not the 'hboot' utility.
When you go into the 'hboot' utility, what do the first two lines of text say?

i will but i didnt make ota update and i have the rom version 2.3.4 do i need to downgrade to 2.3.3
You do not need to do downgrade. Try again to follow the tutorial step by step. You must have USB debugging turned on. Try on another computer.

Hi,
Look for the section that says:
NEW
ONE CLICK ROOT TOOL
and follow the instructions.
I cannot make it any simpler than that.
Questions:
4.copy the rest of files to the your adb/fastboot folder where is adb/fastboot folder?
(SOFF what is that?)

Hi,
ADB can be found HERE
Seriously,it seems that you should concentrate on getting familiar with all the processes involved.
Look in my signature (☺ A great starting point for all new Sensation owners ☺)
There is a whole list of guides and explanations.
READ,READ,AND READ some more,or else you will mess up your phone.
Thanks guys, i know my status here is a senior and been here since 2006 just wanted to ask that question since im fairly new to htc. This was my 2nd htc device since the first android phone htc dream. Thanks for all the reply
