If you have new hboot (2.00.002) and you are S-OFF, it means your phone has hardware S-OFF, using XTC clip. You don't have to unlock it. You can do right about everything with your phone without unlocking it.
So why is this

Try 'fastboot oem unlock'
Some first gen phone's were s-off to start with. Don't quote me on that, I'm guessing.

Because s-off/s-on and locked/unlocked are 2 different things. Trust me being s-off'ed by xtc clip is more then enough, you can install anything you want. I have a phone like that. Don't unlock, there is no need for that. You can flash any RUU if you want so and still stay s-off and then flash any custom rom, and then RUU again... I've done that all more then once.

Since your phone already is s-off,
You can root it now using a tool like superoneclick or something else.

Agree with the above.
What I personaly did is installed latest RUU 2.10.401.9 just to have the latest hboot and radio (since I have xtc clip s-off, I stayed s-off). Then rooted it with one click tool, flashed latest 4ext recovery and installed my favorite custom rom.

Is it necessary to take nandroid backup before rooting or we can simply backup our appz

Are you kidding?? Already told you.
If it's already s-off, root it with superoneclick, install recovery like 4ext or cwm, backup everything and flash roms like it's going crazy.
Search the forums, it's written a hundret times everywhere!#!

Dude, you know, I'm not gonna do the simple search work for you. I tried to help you but I have other things to do aswell. If you're not able to find the mentioned stuff by yourself, you should probably not play around with your device...

I want to install the new 1.45 RUU because I heard that it has some optimizations that we don't get from installing roms. How do it do that? Is it something that can be flashed from clockworkmod? Do I have to undo revolutionary and S-off? Please if someone could walk me through it, I will be grateful. I'm sorry, I realize this is a noob question.
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using XDA App
Just run the ruu that's what I did. U can flash cwm recovery again after
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using Tapatalk
what optimizations are you talking about? i read this somewhere as well and asked many times on here what the difference between a ruu and a rom based on ota was and i finally got the dev baadnewz to reply and he said there is no difference??? now im confused again

So you stay s-off after you ran the RUU? And after reflashing cwm recovery, everything went back to normal?

is there any noob friendly way i can root my sensation xe at this time? i tried finding one but they all refer to firmware 3.32.xxx.xxx.

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.

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

Maybe you will not lost S-off, but even if you lost it, you can repeat s-off steps as u did before.
But what I'm sure about you have to root it again and lost OTA update
