If you use revolutionary to S-OFF your device it will have hboot 1.17 (from my own experience)
You can only change cid if your hboot is S-OFF

So unlocking the bootloader is not s-off that's just onlocking the recovery

If you want to change your cid you need to have an unlocked bootloader by S-OFFING your hboot
But why do you even want to change your cid?

No need to supercid for custom roms, since they don't have cid checking. Just s-off and flash a recovery

hi, if you want to return s-on, you have to follow this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1192300
and no, if you do s-off you can't get update from htc
Tnx ;-)

there is the button "thanks"
you can get updates from htc with s-off as long as you are otherwise completely stock (including recovery)

Tool for auto goldcard ?

I was wondering if there is a tool which will create a goldcard. I tried it manually about 50 times with different sdcards but no luck. I'm very sure that I'm doing it the right way but it just won't work.

Why do you need a gold card?

You don't need to create gold card for sensation.

you dont need HBoot 1.20 as I think it's still beta atm, try downgrading it to i think 1.12 and everything should work.
Please correct me if im wrong

That's because hboot 1.20 doesn't have fastboot flashing capabilities. But you can still flash radios and hboot stuff, provided you make into a bootloader flashable zip.

As mentioned, get into the bootloader and you can flash Radios from there

No, no you cannot, at least with the hboot 1.20. You CAN however, flash a bootloader compatible zip, which is not at all near the same as a fastboot flash.

If you are s-on use the juopuntbear method to s-off or if you did something else to brick it AS WELL look for a guide by dexter.

All the ones that refer to 3.32.xxx.xx also works for 3.33.xxx.xx, so go ahead and use them

I think he means that you should downgrade the hboot but it is not possible with an s-on device.
To s-off your device you can use this tutorial http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1614617
Root your device with this tool http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1668276
But be careful and read the readme, no one takes responsibility if you brick your device.

I got i rooted, but juonuputbear corrupted my sdcard, it fixed now and I'm running CM10
Sent from my HTC Sensation using xda app-developers app
Yes there is a easy way of doing it you could flash a ruu that has the boot 1.17 and then head on over to alpha revolutionary and then s off and then root and then head over to 4ext.net download your new custom recovery and set it up and then upgrade your firmware to 3.32 or 3.33 you will then have hboot 1.27 next flash a Rom

[Q] Factory S-Off? Any issues with it?

Hi,
Well. Here's the think, I bought a Factory Unlocked OEM HTC Sensation z710e,
And It's s-off, and I've done nothing,
It's a full s-off or just HTC dev ?
Any recommendations?
Thanks,

It is full S-Off, some phones come that way. Enjoy your S-OFFed phone
Just flash a recovery via fastboot and you're good to go.

If it says s-off and bootloader unlocked then you are good to go pal if your bootloader is locked then flash the jupuntobear hboot or the universal 3.33 firmware so that your hboot is unlocked without HTC's warranty nonsense and readreadread before you flash
