If you wish to stay on Android 2.3.5/Sense 3.0 then you can unlock the bootloader using the procedure at HTCDEV.com and then follow this procedure to install CWM recovery and add su-3.0.xxx.zip to root the ROM.
Beware that by following the bootloader unlock procedure at HTCDEV.com, HTC has you acknowledge that by using this procedure is could void your warranty.

After you unlock the bootloader and install ClockworkMod recovery, you can perform a full 'nandroid' backup which will create a backup of your current ROM before being rooted. This will give you a point to restore back to if you need it.

yes i formated all of them before flashing .. and what do you mean by procedure ?
Hello
You will everytime end in bootloop because (so do you write it) your bootloader is locked.
PROCEDURE:
1. Go to the website: http://unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com/
2. Follow the instructions and unlock your bootloader and then you will be able to root your phone permanent and even ROMs will work
Cheers

ROOT is working then until the phone isnt power off......on powering on again ROOT is gone.
ROMs wont work because you need a CWM (cstom recovery) but for this bootloader needs to be unlocked (but this woids warranty)
I have unlocked the bootloader on my sisters live with walkman and truely spoken warranty dont help a lot here in our country because they always figure something out ( the: you must pay bla bla bla....you know what I mean) so nobody cares about it

If you done it correctly it should be unlocked because....when you unlocked its unlocked no need to check
Have you done everything correctly?
I mean like wipe data\factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache and so on?
Hmmm its strange.......I didnt had any problems with a custom rom when i unlocked the bootloader
Maybe:
- You flashed another kernel,
- Did the procedure not right.
If nothing helps I would download stock .ftf (firmware) flash it with flashtool and give it first a run
P.S: Flashing .ftf will bootloader leave unlocked

Hi,
You have access to bootloader,so,you are not bricked.
If you are unlocked and have access to bootloader,then, look HERE
Install the 4 EXT recovery,use the "Format all partitions except sd card" option in recovery.
Root the phone.
Then, use the "Smartflash" option to install a fresh ROM of your choice.
Thank You

Your device is now stuck at the bootscreen .. Can you tell us in a detailed way as what you did with your phone ?
Did you try to root the device or flash any custom rom without unlocking the boot loader or installing twrp or cwm recovery ?
thanks for answering

Okay don't worry we are here to help you..
Just follow this thread to flash a new rom
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2034264
If you still can't understand the method in the above mentioned thread just use a toolkit..
Download the Nexus Toolkit by Wugfresh and follow the instruction to flash factory image of Nexus ..
You can root,flash factory images,unlock and relock bootloader with this tool..
If you haven't installed the adb and fastboot drivers there is a option for installing driver in that tool kit ..
Here is the link for the thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1984858
Need any help in using this toolkit just reply back via this thread :good:

After rooting your phone with kingo.. what happens.? Does it say rooted successfully or you get any error?
If it says rooted successfully then install supersu from play store, it should work
Or try rooting your phone using framaroot

just do a factory reset
And after that try rooting your phone
(I always factory reset my phone whenever I am having problems with it. That's why I suggest it to many users )
PS: I m not 100% sure if it will work or not but you can give it a try
=> which exploit u used to root using framaroot? Gandalf works for Samsung

maby a stupid question but does restoring it to factory downgrade the android version ?
I would not mind running a earlier android version if was the only way for me to have it rooted.

No it will not downgrade your phone.. it only restores settings.
If you want to downgrade your phone, you will have to root it and then have to flash strck firmware

No need of root to downgrade! Just download the previous firmware version from sammobile.com and flash it with ODIN.

Hmmmm you don't need root access to flash using odin (I came to know about it just now thanks to @sanjay.addya )
So you can just download the old stock firmware and flash it properly using odin.
