Question regarding HTC official bootloader unlock

Hello.
I have some questions regarding the official bootloader unlocker:
How would I flash files If I do it.
Do I then need to flash custom recovery?
Do you have it ?
I would be very grateful if you could answer those questions
Do you mean how would you flash files over once you're rooted?

Nope. I mean how does the official unlocked bootloader work ? How do you flash files ?
Well you will need a recovery to flash files. And you will find it if you google 4ext recovery. Go ahead and copy and paste that into search engine. U het its the first that that pops up.
Once you've installed recovery then read the installation instructions on any thread you get you zip from. I have faith you can figure that much out.

It depends if you're unlocking via the HTC tool or rEVOlutionary, if it's the later it would automatically ask you of you wanted it to flash a custom recovery, but yeah you need a recovery to flash And back up files

Bootloop roms

Anyone have the slightest clue as to why when I load up a custom ROM all it does is go into a bootloop? I tried elglicas and vritious both with the same result. I've set my cid and flashed my ROM...

If they are the latest ICS ROMs you need a firmware upgrade also - or else the ROM will bootloop on load....read the instructions, etc in the ROMs post very carefully...
I meant I had flashed the firmware not the ROM but I had tried the lastest version of both englica and vritious

do you have a custom recovery?

what worked for me is the downgrade of the HBOOT version first...then root
Since you're already S-OFF, this couldn't be easier. Just download 4ext recovery, flash it via fastboot, and find a zip file of Superuser or SuperSU and flash that from within your new recovery.
Thanks guys for response, can you give me a link straight to that so i cant read so many tutorials?
I just want to be rooted

If you're S-OFF, just flash a custom ROM of your choice, and root will come with it.

[Q] Requirements to update from ICS to JB ?

Hi,
I got this Sensation XE that I was dealing with today, I unlocked the bootloader and installed TWRP Recovery, because the 4EXT did not want to load after I installed it numerous times. I now Installed ViperS 1.6 on it, which is ICS 4.0.4.
My question is, what are the requirements to Install a JB rom on it?, do I just flash it and it will work? do I need to change HBOOT or something?, flash an JB Kernel??? what do I do?
Thank you

Are you S-On? Did you flashed ViperS ICS with TWRP recovery? I'll still recommend you to flash 4EXT recovery if you're S On. Try downloading recovery.img from some other link and check MD5.
For JB ROM you just need 3.32 or 3.33 firmware and you're good to go for JB. Just flash the ROM from recovery just like you did for ViperS ICS.

Yes I am S-ON.
My version of firmware (if I am correct) is: 3.33.705.151. But I am on ICS. The original Rom that was on the phone befire I installed vipers was 4.0.3
So.. if it is 3.33, I can just flash JB?? ?
Thanks

By the way, if anyone shall have this issue with 4EXT and will look in here, the problem is with the file on the ALL IN 1 TOOLKIT for SENSATION.
The solution is to download 4EXT from the main site (install APK on phone, then install it from there, or from Bootloader.) - Just good "4EXT"
