You still have to turn the radio security back on. Which I'm not sure how to do.

It looks like some people have been successful getting S-On following the procedure in that thread (starting at post #27, but the whole thread's worth a read)

That sure seems like a lot of trouble compared to the iPhone restore,, Someone should make something so we can create a backup of everything on the phone before we start to modify it and then if we ever mess the phone up we can then just restore it.. Maybe one day huh
So lost
Ok I have downloaded s-on , do I put that on the sd card?
I wasn't successful in unrooting based on the link you provided. The settings simply stated that I do not have permission to change from S-on to S-off...anyone else tried going back to complete stock?
Use the guide that is stickied at the top.

ok Im about to unroot my phone can anyone list a step by step on how to do so..Please Im still new to all this thanks friends
Hi I'm new here, been a iPhone user for years, and jailbroke every iPhone I had. I'm no expert but I can manage my way around most computers or gadgets. However I downloaded revolutionary and initiated it, but when it tried to install CWM it crashed my question is how do I get clockworkmod recovery on my phone now!? As it won't let me re-do the revolutionary app, just says your phone is not supported! The s-off has worked just not sure where to go from here? To get my phone rooted and get CWM on my phone! Any help would be much appreciated!

Get ADB working for your computer then from there flash CWM through fastboot if you have any questions from there use the search bar or google.
G2X and Sensation 4G I love both

Yes you can, or install a custom rom, they are faster and more optimized.

Hello everyone,
This is my first post and sorry if this question was already answered, but I couldn't find the answer to my particular question when I searched for it. I just recently got my Sensation for T-Mobile a couple weeks ago and rooted it but do not have the S-OFF because of the OTA update to 2.3.4 so I used the HTC unlock method. Is there any way I can get the s-off because I am finding it difficult to flash a lot of ROMs I want to try since a lot of them either never load or they just go into an infinite boot loop? Thanks for all your help and advice and I'm hoping I can gain more knowledge thru you guys since this was a big leap for me from a Blackberry 9700.
I recently rooted my HTC Sensation and got the s off following the directions provided here on xda. Then installed Revolution HD. No issues with that either. I just followed the directions there also. Did it not work for u?

No, it didn't work for me. My friend told me that the alpharev method used here on the forums wouldn't work because I downloaded the OTA update to 2.3.4 when I first received it out of the box. He told me that only the htc unlock method would work to root my phone but I wouldn't have S-off. My phone is currently rooted right now with no s-off so certain ROMs won't flash or they will butt I'll hey errors in them.
I find that strange. I'm no expert but my Sensation was running stock Android 2.3.4 before I rooted and it reads that s is off. I went to revolutionary.io/ download for Windows filled in the info for the beta key save the zip file and and launch it then enter the beta key. Then just follow the prompts from there. Did u do that?
Sent from my HTC Sensation XE with Beats Audio using XDA App
Yup, I did exactly that a number of times but it didn't work. That's weird. Maybe someone else on here can help me get full s-off on my sensation. What's your service provider ? Cuz mine is T-Mobile and it came stock 2.3.3 but I did the OTA update and was able to root it but get no s-off
hi,
just to share my experience ... On Asian Starhub
i have updated to 2.3.4 via OTA before i root and s-off, and eventually supercid.
Followed the guide step by step.
The rooting , s-off and supercid process is smooth as butter ( as some dev quoted ).
Flashed Bulletproof 1.4 and now InsertCoin 3.3.0.
Perhaps u can provide more phone details like your current Hboot version and which part of the process you are stuck so that some experienced member can help u out easier.

Same here. 2.3.4 OTA and I am fully rooted with S-Off. Followed the guide step by step. Used Revolutionary.io with no problem. Be sure you enter your beta key in exactly, its case sensative. I'm also on TMOUS.

So it worked ok for the Sensation XE? I'm about to upgrade my phone from the Desire (s-off, root, leedroid hd 3.3.3 data++) and was wondering if the revolutionary route would work (really want the XE!). Had no issues at all with the Desire and would wait to upgrade if there were issues.
Thanks.

Sorry if I'm asking the obvious or if this has already been covered, but did you first go to the HTC dev. site and follow their specific instructions for unlocking the bootloader? If not, do that first, then use Revolutionary to root/s-off, wipe your phone to factory (I always wipe dalvik cache and cache partition, too), then flash whatever ROM and kernel you want.
Let me know if that helps any.

Very cool. Can't wait to upgrade to this phone. Sensation looked great before, but these latest two (LE screen too big for my tastes) are looking amazing!
Ok guys, thanks for the input. I'll be sure to fill you in if I'm havng any difficulties...I'll try it again today.
I'm also on Tmobile 10 plus years. After following the steps and entering the beta key added the Su zip and it kept s off. You are prop missing something in between. Make sure u are entering the right hboot of your phone otherwise the beta key will be incorrect. Did u set up connection to HTC sync when u did it?

Ok guys, I tried getting s-off again tonite. Mind you my phone is already rooted but has s-on. I have a custom ROM flashed on it currently, I ran the revolutionary app and it suddenly closed on me and i also got an unforseen FC on the home screen of the phone. I flashed back to my nandroid backup of my stock rooted ROM and still the same thing. Suggestions? I saw on another post I should try doing this on a different computer. I tried different methods of connecting the phone via usb with mounting it as a drive, charge only, htc sync but to no avail. I did have htc sync running and it did sync up properly.
I tot we should uninstall HTC sync .... Only leave the HTC drivers alone ....
Maybe someone can advise on this ....

Yes, uninstall HTC sync, leave HTC drivers alone.

Is there specific drivers I need to install? It doesn't say in the guide.
When u install , then uninstall HTC sync . The HTC sync drivers will be removed but HTC drivers remains . That's the drivers we want to keep. Alternatively , u can just install the HTC drivers. But u got to search for it elsewhere. I think its HTC 3.7.0.01 drivers or something .... ( if I can remember correctly )

As I received my brand nu Xe yesterday, I'm now on rooting it to delete unwanted apps.
I'm comming from Leo with Nand roms, where flashing was easier as rooting Android devices to me
Tried different threads, found different unanswerd questions about rooting, Hroot, S-off and stuff but to be honest, I have no clue how to do it with the XE.
I had the MAGDLR on it so flashing was like playing with toys, but now,....can't go on.
The stock rom which is on board on my TMO_DE XE is okay for me, no nned to flash another rom, but all I wanna do is to get rid of all unwanted sys app I never us.
Can anyone give me a helping hand on this?
thx in advance
P
Look on YouTube, theirs loads of videos on how to get s-off and rooting. Being the sensation XE doesn't make it any different from the original sensation just XE processors clock limit is 1.5ghz so follow guides for either

Hi there,
I just went to revolution website and followed the instructions in this topic: -
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1192300
I had no issues (I didnt super-cid or whatever its called). May I also recommend you look at InsertCoin ROM V3.4.4, it is fast and causes no issues. if you want 2.3.4 Sensation XE ROM, Virtuous v2.2 is great.....I'm stuck deciding which of these two to use as my daily
Good luck
LoL,
I successfully S-Offed my Xe now and downloaded the rom manager.
so, do I still need to run busybox or something?

you don't need busy box. If you are already S off and have clock work installed. You are good to go. Get you a ROM, transfer to sd, enter recovery, and flash away.

CMR says that its NOT rooted, but I did with that revolutionary tool and it also downloaded CMR, but I can't find it
You need to flash a recovery through fastboot, then flash superuser through recovery. (or just flash a new rom) to get root

Well,
I went into recovey and it installed CWR. It rebbots now and then, hopefully, I will somehow get root access. all I want to do is to delete system apps out of my stock rom

Be careful though because some apps may rely on the apps your about to delete, to function so be careful dude

If you got the custom recovery, and you are rooted, then download an app (this one),that way you can lock those apps that you don't need, so you can save some RAM, and battery.
If you're worried you're doing it wrong you might be
check out the guide in my sig. Very simplified and noobproof.
Thank you guys,
fortunatly I decided to flash a custom rom Now its rooted and I can delete the unwanted apps Damned, Xe is fast as hell. Guessed, Leo was, but now it breaks records

Wrong forum. this is the XL forum. THe XE and XL are completely different phones.
The guide for the Sensation and XE are here:

Best of luck.
that method not working
unfortunately, it is probably best if you ask the question in that forum though, as your question is not about sensation XL (which this forum is for) and the forum that was linked above is for SENSATION and SENSATION XE.
unfortunately in my case HTC Super tool v3 and revolutionary are not working. I am not able to S-off my HTC Sensatio XE (with beats audio) 2.3.4. I dont know what is wrong.
Is it possible that since i have downloaded the update HTC Super tool v3 is not working? also revolutionary is giving error and failed to root. Can you please help
I just bought a new sensation and I want to root it.so do I go to revolutionary.com and just follow the steps?Is the stock firmware 3.32 or do I need to update it to that?after I get the s-off for security then next do I install 4 ext touch recovery?Is that just a program that I download onto my sensation?and after that's done then can I go ahead and start putting.whatever Rom I want to use on my sensation.I do want to mess up my phone,etc.could someone help me out here alittle bit.and what are some of the biggest reasons why a phone gets bricked?and is it true a phone can always be unbricked? Thanks in advance...

What is your Hboot version? First find out your Hboot version, then you
Can know exactly which method of rooting to use. Revolutionary uses specific h boot versions. So once you find that out then you can move forward using the correct guide. Hope this helps.

Thanks.after rooted how do I get 4 ext touch recovery on my phone is it just an app that I download?
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA
Hey, don't jump to rooting right away.
You first need to S Off or unlock your bootloader.
Here are the appropriate guides for you:
How to flash ICS 3.32 firmware | flash/update ARHD 6.6.x ICS ROM
Flashing roms with S-ON and 1.2x HBOOT
These are guides for flashing ROMs, & your Hboot version is very important to determine which method will work for you.
For now, it should be sufficient to read through the guide.
Don't try to do it right away, read first, understand & then proceed.
Thanks for the information.I have my sensation unlocked s-off.so I'm go to install 4 ext recovery app correct.

Do it through the steps mentioned in one of the 2 guides that I've linked you to.
Yes when the time comes you will really enjoy 4ext recovery. It is so nice with many features and is extremely user friendly! They also have some beautiful themes you can use on your 4ext recovery! I just flashed one yesterday called purple moon its soo nice. I think you will be very happy with 4 ext.The one I'm using is the newest version its called 2.41.
So far its been great.
