Important warning

Do NOT accept the latest 2.3.4 OTA! It will still be S-OFF but it will say locked above, which means you can't flash Custom ROMS/ root/ whatever. Just a warning

OK, OTA flashed and all fine - still have S-OFF so will get a system dump up this evening unless someone beats me to it
EDIT: Interesting HBOOT now...it says *** LOCKED *** at the top of it
EDIT EDIT: HBOOT is now locked, cannot flash a new recovery - DO NOT FLASH IF YOU WANT TO S-OFF

Revolutionary doesn't support the HBOOT I am using?

Hello there! To root your Sensation XE you must first unlock the bootloader via HTCDev, after that to get S-off use this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1614617 when you've done this you can install any custom ROM you like

(I am using the sensation xe does this vary?)
