read all this and u will figure out
Go through the guides on the index thread in the desire s development section.
Also read the tips on how to avoid bricking.
If done correctly, totally safe. Depends on your experience n patience too I guess. U haven't mentioned what version hboot etc you have which is the starting point.
Re your recovery thread, Google it or search xda, there's also a glossary...

Does revolutionary requires administrator to run? Cuz I don't hv the admin rights x( is there any method that I can bypass that? Sorry if this sound stupid
You will be fine with revolutionary,it's. What I used to do mine straight from virgin. it will S-off then drop the file you download from the site on the SD card and flash it to get root

CID - Carrier IDentification, it's restricts which software can be installed on a phone. SuperCID is a universal CID where the phone will accept any kind of firmware image from anyone.
SuperCID is necessary only for flashing RUU's from different regions. You don't need a SuperCID to flash a custom ROM's
I have an unlocked sensation Z710e...Do i need to install super CID to run an ICS rom ???
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using XDA App
I would say it is recommended. I've read other people having trouble flashing the firmware update when they don't have it

With the latest leaked ics ruu that's made into a custom Rom yes you would need super cid in order to flash the firmware for the custom rom to boot properly and run.

Wow. If you want to be an ass, go to MoDaCo. It was a simple question. Could have been answered with more respect. After all, he did put it in the Q & A section in the forum...

You took my words mate..
Also, i wanted to ask that my gingerbread sense 3.5 Rom lags a bit as compared to sense 3.0 and batery life is also good in3.0 as compared to 3.5--Is not doing Super CID the reason ?

I dont think so, the performance of Sense 3.5 isnt very good, so its normal that its slower than Sense 3.0

I was not trying to be an ass. So if i hurt your feelings i am sorry. Your question though could easily be answered just by simply searching the forums. It would have benefited you because you would have learnt yourself and its less clutter on the forum.
Take this post for example. He wants answers to a problem that has a whole guide telling him how to do it. He just hasn't bothered to search.
Again sorry for coming across as an ass.
Just as an extra bit of info for you. I am currently supercid and running the new firmware. The touchscreen recovery looks really good and Mikes ARHD 6.0.0 is running really smooth on my phone. No lags or fcs to date.

Hi,
Are you still s-on?
If so ,you should probably visit THIS GUIDE
Post if you want to root,s-off ,etc.
Everyone is different in their usage and likes,so,I cannot possibly say what will be the best ROM for you.
Experiment with both Sense,and Non-Sense ROMS.
You will quickly see which ones you like.
S is off and I don't know the difference at all between them but i'll check out the post and thanks for your response

Hi,
If you are s-off,then,you are rooted as well.
You can flash anything you like.
A word of advice,make nandroid backups BEFORE flashing.
This will get you safely,and quickly,back to a stable system,if you do not like what you have flashed...
