hi all
i want to root my sensation xe and try some custom roms, i've rooted my Hero once and thought rooting my sensation would not be so difficult.
Here is my problem: i unlocked using HTCDev but s-on is still there, HBOOT version = 1.29.0000 and firmware is 3.33.401.106
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.
idont know what to do, please help if you can :fingers-crossed:
Do downgrading could help just downgrade.

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

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

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

Using a stock RUU will get you back to stock and aslong as you don't root it when its back to stock you should be able to get HTC updates. There should be threads all over the place on how to safely install stock RUU and there is a thread full of RUU's in the development section. Just please please please research the correct procedure and make sure you get the right RUU I would love to be of more assisstance but its getting late here and got to be up early. But I'm sure if you look it up and make sure you research properly you should be fine

Or..... If you made a backup of your stock Rom before you flashed a custom rom. Just make sure you're on the sane firmware as stock and restore it. But if your rooted I don't think youl get official update.

What's not working? The thread says its a European RUU so if you're not in Europe youl need to find one for your area. Then run it on your computer and follow the instructions. If you can't find one for your area/country and you want the European one use the link in cravens thread to change your CID to HTC__001 then run it on your computer.

I believe your phone has to be connected at the hboot screen to the computer when running the RUU

Just to confirm, it does not matter the state of the phone (s-off, bootloader, firmware, rom, etc), as long as supercid or cid matches, ruu will flash fine? Will it be 100% stock? Thinking about buying this phone that the last owner supposedly "screwed up on" but still goes into hboot. Beyond that, don't know anything except it's a TMO phone.
RUU will flash firmware (radio, hboot, bootloader are components?) and rom?
Will it touch s-off / unlocked bootloader / unlocked radio / cid?

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.

You could just follow: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1614617
Then you'd have full S-OFF, then any ROM you like )
Here are some RUUs you could try, including 3.33. Depends if your CID is "HTC__001" or SuperCID I guess.

Enable smart flash (4EXT - tools) just before flashing the ROM.. That will mostly do..
If you have wifi issues/not booting.. Then do the extra1 step from asskickers Flashing roms with SON guide.
If the wifi still persists after that too.. Then re flash the rom again.. Without any wipe this time.. But need to enable smart flash this time too before flashing the rom..

All the custom ROMs OP will detail the pre-requisites r.e. firmware. Make sure you read them.
I would still advise you go get full S-OFF if you can, I've recently done it on 1.27.0000 and the paper clip hack was a little bit of a pain to get the timing right but it did work. It makes life much simpler. You could then, for example, downgrade if required
NOTE: currently HBOOT 1.29.0000 cannot be S-OFF'd so do it while you can.

Fair enough, if I'm wrong I'm sorry. I had read somewhere that 1.29.0000 had issues being S-OFF'd and 1.27.0000 was the most recent one that could. Guess the information I based my statement on was wrong.
