good Q bro, i dont see it either, so then try to ask in Q/A sections, someone should help you i guess

Excellent work...I thought I'd made a classic mistake using the RUU from HTC last week as I kept running low on space.
I'm rooted once more

yeah I got this as well when I tried it the other week, the way to get round it is copy and paste the beta key into the programme,it worked striaght away then for me.

This is frigging sweet. I flashed the HTC Gingerbread build and lost root, stupidly. Biggest mistake. Just used this and now I've got S-Off. Thanks!

yes,i did it.just confuse the "o" and "0"

Sorry,my bad,but maybe you should be more explicit in your topic title...

you should make this more obvious that its for 1.0.2 hboots that are for the new stock gingerbread builds
this doesnt affect most people that are in this dev forum as we rooted ages ago

stupidily flashed the Gibgerbread RUU, but now running InsertCoin 1.1.1 again and couldn't be happier. Revolutionary works like a charm!

good title change

Does Revolutionary Work After 2.3.4 OTA?

I've been reading every thread about it out there but I simply can't get a straight answer out of anyone. I'm S-On currently and have already installed the update. Some people have said that it has worked from them yet others have said that it patches fr3vo which Revolutionary needs to work. So which is it? And if I can't do S-Off, is there a way to get my Sensation back to 2.3.3 to use revolutionary?

If your hboot version supports it, then I say go for it.

Make sure you're S-OFF but have stock recovery before you update and you can run Revolutionary again.

Flashing RUU would get you back, as I've seen boot images in the rom.zip of the RUU.
I dunno though if the RUU checks for higher versions or not..
I believe that you can s-off if the HBOOT you have is supported by revolutionary. Give it a try you're not losing anything.

i was 2.3.3 then updated to 2.3.4 ota. read around that u couldnt get s-off if u were s-on and got 2.3.4 update because of hboot.. i did it anyways no problems everything worked fine

[Q] is there a way to downgrade to GB and then root?

I have stock everything. no s-off or root or anything like that.. is there a way i can downgrade from ICS to GB and then do everything from there? it seems much easier because i dont like the pin method to get root and s-off..

Hi,
HTC made it really difficult to s-off with hboot 1.27 and 1.29
The clever people at Juopunutbear came up with the ingenious wire trick to get around this,so it is currently the only way to s-off.
Sorry.

Oh okay well thank you very much!

[Q] Noob wanting to root

Hello everyone! I just got my HTC Sensation 4G, and I really want to root it. The problem is, this phone is so much more complex than my Optimus V and there are many different methods to rooting this phone. So if anyone has the time, can you give me a quick run down on how to flash a ROM and which way is the easiest way to root? To me it seems like the Super Utility is the easiest, but VipeR's method is more in depth.
PS: I am currently on Sense 3.0 with Android 2.3.4, the kernal version is 2.6.35.13. I want to flash Bruce's CM10 or possibly the latest MIUI JB. TWRP 2.3 seems like a good recovery, but I see a lot of people using 4EXT, so which would work better?
Thanks in advance!

You should check the stickies in the dev section. It will be the third post from the top. That will be a good start for you
ViperS 1.3.5 With True S off

This thread will be helpful: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1716955

Whatever you do, just don't HTCDev. That will cause headaches later on.

All right guys, I'll make sure to read those guides and not use the HTC Dev method. I saw on some topics like Bruce's CM10 that I need the ICS firmware. This is achieved by downloading the ICS/Sense 3.6 update correct? And if it is, just grab it from under settings and go from there? Sorry for being such a noob at this!

As you are still on Gingerbread, I would suggest to S-OFF your device first as it is quite easy to do so. Later, on ICS and 1.27 HBOOT it will be more difficult. If you S-OFF your device now, you can update your phone thereafter to ICS. I think these would be the correct moves, I hope someone will confirm this! Have a good day!

Yeh if your still on gingerbread soff now instead of with ICS. Then you can update to ICS/JB by flashing 3.32/3.33 firmware once your soff.

So S-Off with Revolutionary then do the OTA update or use Kohr-Ah's 3.33 update? God I hate having to ask so many questions, but I just want to make sure I get through this all cleanly. No need for Super CID or perm root until I get updated to 3.33 correct?

Someone more clever should confirm this to you but I think if you s-off, then install ICS you can still update your firmware. That's the point of S-OFF-ing your device. You can do whatever you want with it. But wait until someone confirm this to you or it might be written somewhere.

Seems like doing the ICS update then using the Super Utility is the simplest way, with the wire trick being the hardest part. Can anyone confirm please?

S-OFF before you update to ICS! After S-OFF you can still install ICS on your device. It is much easier to S-OFF on Gingerbread. No wire trick etc... just simple instructions you need to follow!

No you want to soff first in gingerbread ad above posters suggested it will be best in the long run and a whole lot easier for you!once you update it will be more difficult to soff. Hope this helps so do the soff in gingerbread first.

Ok, so S-Off well in GB. Do I use Super Utility or VipeR's Guide?
But can someone tell me the correct way to get the 3.32/3.33 firmware after that? I am assuming I should follow this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1472298
And that I should use the 3.32 TMOUS firmware from here, as I am on T-Mobile US:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=21711154#post21711154

Alright, so I did all the reading up I could, and I think I got this down. Im going to use VipeR's guide to S-Off, root, and SuperCID, then I'm going to usejoaquinf's guide to flash Kohr-Ah's 3.33 Universal firmware update. After that going to put on Bruce's CM10 and away I'll go.
PS: Anyone here use the latest TWRP Recovery on this phone? It seems the focus is one 4EXT.

Use 4ext! It will make your life easier later... good luck and report back how you got on!

You dont need to s-off if you just want custom rom and root acess
First update your sensation on ics and then look here

I would rather S-Off so I have total freedom to do what I want. Plus it doesn't seem to be that hard with GB. I'll see if I have time to root today, if not then definitely during the week.

[Q] downgrade from hboot 1.29 to 1.18?

Hey everyone,
I have a Htc Sensation XE, with ICS (original rom) and i want to s off and root it, but the hboot is a 1.29 so the revolutionary way does not work, i know that there is a new way, the Juopunutbear one, but its seems a little hard, and to be honest i'm afraid to brick my phone, so can i just downgrade the phone ? flash any GB stock rom and use the revolutionary way to s off and root it ? if yes, how i'll do it ?
Thank you, and sorry for my bad english.

i think if you downgrade your hboot version you will brick your device
instead of juopunutbear method you can do htcdev unlock method to unlock the bootloader and then root the device

and if a flash a RUU rom, a GB one, and then do the s off and root thing with the best method i know, the revolutionary one ^^

i don't know if you can do that when you are in completely stock situation
wait for someone else to confirm it
if yes then you can do that procedure

You can't flash gb ruu, if you aren't s-off, or if you don't have supercid. Try the juopuntuBeats, is very easy and no problem. If you try it 4-5 times before running the program you can do it very fast.
EDIT: you can't brick your phone, if you do all the things that is required!!! First of all unlock the bootloader, with the htc WEB SITE and then install a recovery with the sensation toolkit and then install ROOT. Finish if you want to s-off you have to do the juopuntubear if no, you can flash rom with s-on but only with 4ext recovery

ok ok, thank you very much my friends, you have been a great advise, thank you once again.

No problem, bu remember do it slowly and keep calm

Try the juopunutbear method without htcdev unlock so you won't break your warranty! If you follow the instructions well, nothing will happen to your phone and it's not as tricky as you think

Nothin will happen, just S-OFF. Don't worry it works fine, when i do it first time i got success on the 4th try, now i can catch timing on the first attempt...so like other things it just depends on practice..
