what's this?
i purchased in november 2011...
Read read read read read before u try anything. Just fyi. Learn about what you doing and what it does to your phone. Learn how to recover and backup. Jumping into this game isn't easy. And could brick your phone. But for starters you need to check here revolutionary.io to unlock, root, and install recovery. Also get S-OFF aka security off. Aka locked boot loader.

As RANDYRKELLY says: First thing is to read carefully, understand and learn. Search this forum for everything about rooting, s-off and flushing ROMS. There are great step-by-step how-to's in here, so that there's no need to explain it once more in a separate thread.
You should start here for example: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1192300
Yes, it is said to read well and understand that you want to do and unlock the boot with better revolutionary than http://htcdev.com/, good luck

Do not use the htc unlock. Will not give you read write state. U need to use revolutionary cause it roots, unlock boot loader, and installs recovery. Please don't miss lead him.

I said that after http://htcdev.com/ will not be able to flash custom kernel, and unlock a better revolutionary
your best bet is to stick to xda it has everything you need to root and flash whatever you want there are alot of threads that will explain what root off is and how to get it. it will aslo explain how to flash roms, and what that is good luck you can always post here in the q&a with any problems you have
thanks randy & kaym....
anyways its S-off...

Actually, your the one misleading people, revolutionary doesnt actually root a phone, it just gives an unlocked bootloader. Installing superuser from market is what gives apps root and a line in the build.prop file gives the user root permissions

To use ICS you either need to flash an RUU or update the firmware if you want to use the ARHD ROM that you linked to.
Assuming you've done SuperCID then just move on to the step that says 'Upgrading the firmware' and follow until you get to the part that says 'Flashing the ROM'.

1) you have to do this here the link
2)this (the link)
3)after that do this one (the link)
4)etc......
Plz really need help donno what to do...sensation just can't b used
Fortunately, this is a Development forum and not a let's-spoon-feed everyone-who-asks-a-question forum. You have to learn because if you don't, you'll ruin your phone just like now. There is no "1 click ROM flashing". Not many people have time to answer everyone's individual questions. But thankfully I do. I am making this quick and simple. If you don't know something, Google is your friend.
1)You know how to boot into HBOOT, or the bootloader? Do just that.
2) Connect your phone to your computer. You must have all the ADB and SDK drivers installed.
3)Navigate to "Fastboot" using your phones Volume UP and DOWN keys until you reach fastboot. Select using the power button.
4) Go into cmd in Windows.
5)Type the following:
cd C:\Program Files\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools
6)Type the following:
adb getvar cid
7) Remember what the previous command just told you. It could be HTC_001 for example.
8)Thanks to this dev, go to this thread. Find this in the first post:
Firmware from 3.32.401.x & 3.32.401.10x RUU
9)See if your CID is listed. If it is not, DO NOT TRY FLASHING THIS. If it is, download the file and flash in HBOOT using the PG58IMG.zip method. Make sure it isn't called PG58IMG.zip.zip.
10) If it isn't listed, use STEP 4 in this post, then flash it.
RE-POST THIS!!! Save devs time to building ROMs and save hassle.
And also thank me for spending a whole 30mins on this guide. Thankyou.

Enable smart flash in recovery...
If u r trying to flash ics Rom then u required ics firmware 3.33
Sent from my Sensation using xda app-developers app
If you don't already have it please download 4ext recovery. Then you will be able to enable smart flash. Because your S on you must use smart flash every time you flash a rom. Also make sure you have correct firmware as said in above post. Because your s on you must flash a bit differently than us with s off. I'm going to send you a link to flashing roms with s on. Skip down to where it talks about smart flash. This link will also show you how to permanently enable smart flash. Hope this is helpful.

Hi,
What ROM did you try to install?
You are on a GingerBread firmware.
You cannot load any ICS ROMS.
And you cannot change firmware or radio with s-on.
S-off for you would be possible using Revolutioary.

Upgrading to ICS

Hi guys,
I am sure this has been asked many times and it's very stupid question. I have reading since last three days and I am still unsure.
I got this HTC sensation from someone. It is rooted and has CWM. I am not sure if it's bootloader is unlocked or not. I assumed that if there is CWM then it must be bootloader unlocked but the attached picture confused me.
I just want to upgrade it to official ics. I tried to use this thread to upgrade but nothing happened. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1459767
Can someone direct me to right path? Please. I will really appreciate.
I am not a noob. Just new to htc phones
Sent from my gs3 using xda app-developers app
The bootloader still locked according to the picture. So go to htcdev.com website and follow instructions to unlock it. You can upgrad to ics either through installing a custom ROM or an official RUU (Rom Update Utility). If you choose the RUU method you will loose the root and the custom recovery but will retain the unlocked bootloader and the soff status.
Read the following guides carefully to be able to upgrad your phone.

Hi,
@ Alsager:
Please stop telling people who are s-off to unlock their phones at HTC.
This is totally unnecessary and could possibly bork their phone in the future...
@ viny2cool:
You need to upgrade your firmware/radio in order to get everything working properly.
The Kohr-Ah thread that Alsager suggested is a good starting point.

Hi,
A locked bootloader will prevent the user from using certain fastboot commands.
If the user has a locked bootloader,this can be unlocked with Kohr-Ah's "HBoot 1.27.1100 Patch (Go from Hboot 1.29.0000 to 1.27.1100)"

[Q] unlock bootloader, root, flash recovery ?

Prerequisite for soff is you must be on stock Rom
And I soffed my phone after I flashed stock Rom my phone ,
You donot need to run the RUU as RUU will make your phone completely stock
