[Q] Stock root - HTC Sensation

Im planning on getting the sensation when it comes out and from the looks so far, the Sense UI that comes on the phone looks pretty good. Now after rooting 2 of my previous phones i plan on rooting my next. I was wondering will the sensation have stock with root. For example i used the z4root.apk on my vibrant and my phone had root on it but i still had the stock touchwiz UI. I then got to choose to load a custom rom on it. Will this be possible for the sensation?

No root for the sensation as of yet mate.

Sensation with 2.3.4?

Is it possible to get 2.3.4 on the mobile without any mods ?
Depends on what you mean by mods? If the phone is still stock and is s-on then you will have to wait until HTC releases an upgrade. I'm certain some of our super devs will be cooking up some roms for us with 2.3.4 in the near future, but you will need to be s-off to install these.
I have S-off... I will not mod it now.. i have some Nasty bugs on 2.3.3.. so i hope 2.3.4 will solve it...

New to sensation 4g

How your doing everyone just wanted to introduce myself I just came from the galaxy s 4g forums. So lame I had to upgrade. I just got rooted yesterday and just need to know a little more info on super cid and flashing ruu firmware I been reading on it alot but I don't know which roms need the super cid or not any help or a point into the right direction will be appreciated. Thanks in advance looking forward to these forums

The super cid would only be required if you're going to flash any ics 4.0.3 rom to prevent boot loops or getting stuck on the splash screen

Hows that android revolution from I see 4 of them on the op just don't know which one to go with
Sent from my MIUI.us Sensation 4G using XDA Premium App
Android revolution and insertcoin are both really great ics roms if you want the full sense experience, but for me, I prefer ics being aosp like because I think its really nice and polished looking which is why I would use virtuous inquisition if you want senseless
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e with Beats Audio using XDA App
yo welcome!! same here i used like sense soo much back when it was like 2.1 days, but with ICS coming around and being able to play with it, AOSP is now what im looking for. just waiting for the CM9 to be released. hopefully soon, till then virtuous inquisition is what im using
It's worth having Super CID simply as you'll not have to worry about having to do it again if a ROM requires it.
I'd give the Virtuous ROM series a go if you're after a AOSP style experience or ICS Sense, and I can happily say ARHD is brilliant too.
Thanks for the replies I just did the super cid and flashed the p58img that starts with 3.12 and everything is fine it just says locked on the boot screen and hboot 1.23 am I good to flash that virtious Rom now

Well if you want to be on the super safe side, I guess a super wipe would be in order. Otherwise, a factory/data wipe should be fine.
Ok cool I appreciate everyone's help I'm not a noob just new to HTC Im just used to the Samsung galaxies they don't have none of this bootloader bs and fast boot I appreciate everything guys this forum is wary more friendly than the gs4g forums. We didn't even have cm7 or miui that's why I had to upgrade I'm loving this phone already

No, if you're on ICS, you'll only reset ICS.

Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA
Are you rooted and s off? If not I'm very sorry to say you can not go back. However if you are rooted yes you most certainly switch back to Gingerbread if you like. If your really hateing it you CAN root and revert back to Gingerbread after your successful in rooting. You might want to even try a Ics Rom. I've found them to be a lot more stable than stock Rom. I was having issues on stock and once I rooted and installed custom Rom the issue went away.however only do what your comfortable doing. I wish you the very best in what ever you're decisions.

O well thank you guys for helping out!

The reason everything is force closing is because it needs a factory reset. My sisters SGSII did the same, i noticed when i reflashed the ota update for her it didnt wipe at all and all the apps force closed

The US Sensation 4g never had the HTC reader app. Only international Sensations did. Are you running a TMOUS Rom?

That explains it then. This is TMOS Rom I take it as its full of tmobile apps.
So there is no hope then?
If you are rooted install a Rom like Elegancia. The app is in the Rom

Edit:
Elegancia - Blitz - Sense 3.6 - A Pure Stock Look and I am happy now.
Thanks for info
