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

It is easier to do if you S-Off.
If you are planning on installing a custom ROM you can skip the rooting step. All custom ROMs are already rooted so just flash the ROM and you have root.

You need a RUU, its a completely stock rom with stock recovery, just flash it and you will be back to stock.
Try the link below:

Don't worry, simply boot to recovery and take another nandroid backup, you'll probably never need to go back and if you need you can always use the ruu route

I this install like firmware?I know its installed after rooting your phone instead of using clockworkmod there's 4 ext touch recovery which is way better.when you use pg58img.zip to install firmware,radios,etc.what I don't understand are the radios and firmware already in the pg58img.zip or do you have to put then in there.could someone explain my qwestions and kinda of how all this works. Thanks!!!
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G with Beats Audio using xda app-developers app
PG58IMG.zip is a file which can be installed from hboot. It man contain a new hboot, recovery radio etc. Its not a must for it to contain them all, you could have one containing only new radio for example.
Most people do not cook a PG58IMG.zip themselves, rather download a made one. I.e if you download the firmware package from mike's thread you'll get new hboot and Radios etc, but no new recovery iirc.

How do you install from the hboot?what is that procedure done?Do I boot into recovery?If yes then what do I do next.could you please explain installation through the hboot and bootloader the samething.
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G with Beats Audio using xda app-developers app
You should boot while pressing vol down, it will detect the file and ask you to confirm the installation

After I download 4 ext touch recovery do I flash it to my phone like a Rom?4ext touch recovery is the last thing I do when rooting a phone correct?then once that's installed I can flash roms,kernels,etc onto my phone.
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G with Beats Audio using xda app-developers app
yes ..i presume you are using a rooted rom now
or i suggest you to use the app (get the free one from the site (download to sdcard and then install from sdcard ..by clicking it ) .... or get the paid one from play store )
you can install 4EXT recovery using any of the two app's
EDIT: btw if you have custom rom installed already then you are pre-rooted already
It's for a different phone yes Ian rooted.I'm sorry for the confusion. Thanks!!!

because you are S-ON(i assume i am not wrong)when flashing a rom it hasn't have the ability to flash the boot.img by itself
you have 2 options:
flash 4ext recovery which has the smartflash feature or
flash the boot.img of the rom manually
see here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1631861
step 2 for flashing the recovery
extra 1 step for flashing the boot.img

There is currently no way to s-off the HTC One S. Best you can do is bootloader unlock.
My phone is boot load unlocked but I tryed installing vemon ROM but when I install it and reboot it gets stuck on load up for some reason. But on install it says something about being (s-off) I don't understand what its asking for then :/
Sent from my HTC One S using xda premium
Luckily you probably misnoticed that, no One S ROM needs S-Off to install AFAIK.
OK so why does it not boot up when I install the vemon rom? It shows blank black screen...

You need to flash the boot.img in fast boot.

Did what? Anyways this is a symptom of not flashing the boot.img properly. Do it using fastboot, there is a whole guide on doing this stickied in the development section.
Do like others have said, fastboot boot.img or try using TWRP recovery.
One of the rom threads has a boot.img script. Just replace the boot image on that script folder with yours and run the script.

Maybe it isn't the boot.img..maybe he chose full wipe in AROMA and it didn't flash. Try flashing by manually full wiping and then not full wiping in AROMA, then it should boot after you fastboot the boot.img.
