The revolutionary method does not work for Sensation xe..so please could someone help me out to root my SENSATION XE!!!
Check Hboot number
Check your Hboot version number.
Revolutionary currently only supports the unlocking of the following versions.
1.17.0006
1.17.0008
1.17.0011
1.17.0012
1.18.0000
If you have any other versions, I believe it will not work.
You have probably had the ICS OTA and your hboot is 1.27??? Xxxxxx the xe and the sensation are the same basically. If you have 1.27 you just need to wait till its supported :-\

Does anyone know which tool to be used to turn OFF the security on the Sensation XE? I have searched the web and found a revolutionary tool for HTC sensation and wanted to know if this works with the XE. I'm still searching to find out how to root my sensation XE and what is the best ROM to be installed.

The procedure is the same for Sensation XE as the Sensation because they are the same phone, same hardware. beats is only an equalizer preset so they are still same phone.
To get S-OFF just use revolutionary

i have searched but i can only find the guide for rooted phones
To revert to stock you have only to look for your RUU and run it on the PC with the phone plugged

Please Guide me to do S-OFF and Root my HTC Sensation....
Thanks in Advance.
To get S-Off from HBoot 1.27 you have to downgrade first to 1.17.
I never did it so I can't tell you how. I just know it's relatively easy and there's a guide for it around here somewhere if you search for it.

to debrand a Sensation XE?
I've successfully debranded a Sensation before, but when I got to revolutionary.io, no XE option is there for the beta key.
Also, the sensation XE i intend to debrand is currently on T-mobile UK ICS... does that change anything?
Note: I do NOT want root access, just stock ICS.
You can't use revolutionary to debrand an ice sensation, its not updated yet ( don't even know if it ever will )
But otherwise any method for the sensation works for the XE.

I unrooted the sensation xe today. No experience with HTC whatsoever. By mistake installed RUU Gingerbread 2.3.4... but of Sensation instead of Sensation xe.
Now have all specs showing of Sensation like 1.2 GHZ and no Beats Audio, etc.
My question is this :
I have downloaded now ICS update RUU file ( the correct one for sensation xe ) but it says that my phone Must Be a Sensation XE and nothing else.
But after this installation of Sensation RUU , isn't my phone just Sensation now or I still can update with power off into bootloader from this ICS RUU since in reality it is a Sensation xe ?
Or do i need to install a Sensation xe gingerbread first before I upgrade ?
Please advice. I don't want to plug in my usb and install wrongly.
Any way out please ?
Thanks in advance.

Number one what's your objective meaning what are trying to achieve you could have found a xe ruu instead and my suggestion if you won't the ruu for the xe you will have to read before flashing don't get me wrong I'm not trying to be rude but this could have been avoided had you did a bit more reading and ask question's before running that ruu but let me do some searching around to see what I can find and I'll get back with you on the result's sit tight well I'm back and its a no go on the ruu for the xe strange though you think it would be in available but it isn't and also you could check with your carrier's web site for your device and it may point you in the right direction I don't know but it's worth a try I'm with tmo u s and thats how I found the latest update for my senssation and you could have a look here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1326631
