Wrong section.
You can't use cwm with this phone only the recovery and you should already have if your rooted.

I've been there so I'll help you out. Just follow the instructions on the following 2 YouTube vids:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u5zoQxUOJgI&feature=BFa&list=UUUKQzwuURouARj0mfMBBsig
They're not the best videos but they get the job done...at the end you will be rooted and have the red CWM installed.

Wrong, if a person uses super one click to root it just gives you root access no custom recovery.

Eww, asking a noobie questions plus posting on the development thread. Will a moderator be my angel!
Anyways so you don't have to spam our forums with non-sense, follow this guide to the point. DON'T ever trust YouTube videos for hacking your phone, I learned that the hard way. The only true place to hack your phone is right here in XDA Forums.
My job here is done and thread reported.

Yes wrong thread, but he's a noob. YouTube videos actually work perfectly, I followed them to the T.
BTW it's a good thing this forum has people like you to keep it in check.
thanks Paulx777 and th3controller

trying to root my htc sprint hero 1.5 help
Hey man everyone started from the same spot your in. People on here are SUPER helpful, but easily get annoyed by people asking the same questions and not posting them in the right section. USE SEARCH! its your best friend, every question has been asked over 3 times. My advice, read everything on rooting (terminology, dangers, benefits, which type of root fits your needs, which ROM you want to flash) after a week or so on researching, find an RUU file in a thread. Then load that on your phone and follow the command prompt instructions carefully. Remember to use search, and rooting can brick, break, your phone. But the benefits of rooting are well worth It.

Go to the development section and look at the top posts(stickies), they have all the instructions there.

Upgrade to 2.1 first. Easier to root for me plus you're already upgraded then.

Hey dude, I'd recommend using this link right here.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=694572
It tells how to get your phone to the stock 2.1 and then how to root that.
If you read down through the first 2 or 3 posts, all the instructions are there and it's really hard to mess them up if you follow exactly what is typed.
You don't even HAVE to upgrade to 2.1, but I'd recommend doing it first.
If you don't want to mess with the link I included above, you can just root it from 1.5 like it is now using some of the one-click methods out there on the forum. If you go to the Development section of this HTC Hero forum and look around for any threads with ROOT in the title, you should be able to find anything you need.
Also check out the Take Control link down in my signature below -- it has a lot of helpful posts and info too.

Welcome to XDA. You use a Thunderbolt but you're posting in the Captivate subforum. I'm giving you a link to the Thunderbolt area of XDA, from there, do your own research by reading through the stickies contained in the various subforums and learn to use the search button. There is also a great sticky linked in my signature all noobies need to read, New Member Guide, Getting the Most out of XDA - click on it and read.
First off please don't flame me, I've been on XDA for years an am by far not new to this. I know the procedures and I DID search and try to find these answers but am still a little confused so I would appreciate some help and I'd be very grateful please . I finally talked my buddy into getting an android phone and dropping iOS so he has the sensation and decided he wants to root and install custom Roms so I'm going to do so for him. He's on stock ICS and all the stickie threads for rooting I seen for the most part were last edited or not posted on since before the ICS update. I seen about the tool kit but just want to double check so I don't brick my buddies phone, could someone just link me to the newest method to root and flash recovery for flashing Roms for a phone on stock ICS? Once again my apologies as I know these noobie questions are annoying but my searching didn't help me . Thanks all!

The reason I'm posting is because its so complicated on HTC phones, Samsung is easy lol but I read the thread about how to do things but there's a million different things it talks about. It talks about s off and adb and all that, there doesn't seem to be a good guide in everything to do just to root and be able to flash custom Roms from straight stock from step one. Help please friend may be willing to donate after all said and done.

Hi,
Please check the ☺ A great starting point for all new Sensation owners ☺ link in my signature.
It has all the latest links to the threads you want.
Hey Guys,
I currently have this phone and have installed the 4.0.4 ICS update from Bell. However, I just realized that I am not able to install CWM on this 4.0.4 which is very disappointing. I tried to follow the rooting procedure but I kept encountering stock boot which does now allow me to install ZIP for root/super user. One of my buddy told me that I have to downgrade. Can anybody confirm that. It seems like all the rooting procedures are only for gingerbread 2.3.4-2.3.6. If anybody can help me, much appreciated. Thx in advance
It will not work (someone correct me if im wrong) because you have the HD LTE version and this forum is for just the LTE version.

But the skyrocket is basically the HD LTE without the HD screen, these two devices are crosslisted and always mentioned in the same discussions.
Not sure if the same applies to SR HD but I would lean towrd it's similar ...
Use ODIN to flash CWM recovery (use .tar format NOT .img = search the development section "sk8.... recovery")..Check only auto reboot in ODIN and click PDA tab and point the browser toward the .tar recovery then click start ... It will reboot automatically ...
Reboot again into recovery and install the zip for rooting , reboot , open SU and update as it asks you , you're done
See Vincom's thread about all that....It's sticky in SR forums development ..
Hit Thanks if I helped you , an idiot was bragging on me on how many thanks he has compaired to his posts count forgetting that , unfortunately ,too many douches are here on the forums like himself(he has a sig like McDonald's billboard on the interstate saying "Hit thanks button" ...

you just need to downgrade back to the stock GB rom and then load the cwm and it will work perfectly, thats what happen to me this morning.
Maybe I need to refrain responding here for SGH-i757m, but please refer the the following thread.
