Hi guys I have a HTC Amaze and would like to root it just so I can install the latest Android OS but I don't wanna do it by installing a custom rom since they're fast at first but always lag within a week or two, is it possible to root it without installing a custom rom or launcher?

Im planning on getting the sensation when it comes out and from the looks so far, the Sense UI that comes on the phone looks pretty good. Now after rooting 2 of my previous phones i plan on rooting my next. I was wondering will the sensation have stock with root. For example i used the z4root.apk on my vibrant and my phone had root on it but i still had the stock touchwiz UI. I then got to choose to load a custom rom on it. Will this be possible for the sensation?
No root for the sensation as of yet mate.

Just flash the official update when it comes out, it will fully wipe the phone and bring it up to date with all the latest HTC bells&whistles.

Just don't root stay on stock. Easy answer.

Or I suppose you could flash a custom ROM now, and then, when HTC releases the official ICS ROM, restore your nandroid backup of the original HTC Rom, restore the apps using Titanium Backup, and then update using the official HTC update (which will be OTA I guess?).
That would work right?

If you are rooted just flash an ICS rom, there are plenty out there for the Sensation. Most stable I've used is the Darkforest one, didn't require any fiddling, just flashed and worked without a problem. If you need to have your phone repaired then you can always return it back to it's original kernel/radio/rom, I remember seeing a thread on here somewhere for it.

You have 2 options:
1. Flash custom ics rom as per above suggestion. Read and use sticky thread in development forum.
2. Restore phone to official rom via RUU, then wait for the official ota update
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1074559
In my opinion 1 is the only sensible choice. More features, earlier releases, better support via xda and from specific forums.
Totally agree, custom roms add many more features and are updated every few weeks where needed. Can't say the same for HTC
R u mean that when I root my phone the offical ROM will be changed
..... Sport but I don't understand u
May be I am not experience licked you ...

No you can root and leave official rom unchanged.
All the custom roms are pre-rooted.
Hey guys,
I'm a newbie @ this. Can any custom Rom be used on a rooted device? I use a sensation and its already rooted. I use a custom rom, but I want to try a new one (viperS 1.5.2).
Any help would be appreciated.

What is your phone ?

HTC Sensation.

Any ROM developed for your device should work. Rooting isn't necessarily needed to change your ROM either. Rooting just gets you root access; you can use software to install a ROM without first rooting.
No, generally you can install ROM's based off of Stock ROMs but only specific to your device (or very near, ARC vs ARC S for example)
Custom ROM's usually require you to H-OFF / Unlock your bootloader
Thanks for all the help

Root reason, If you want to try sense 5 experience before stock one coming (who knows when it gets released), custom rom with sense 5 will do, you need to root it and no need s-off as s-on can still flash some custom roms. You are able to use apps with root function and if you don't want or don't like to take much time to read many threads before doing anything to your phone, just use stock one without root.
Here are the steps what you need to learn for root with flashing custom roms if necessary for u : unlock your boot loader via htcdev.com> flash custom recovery (CWM or TWRP), flash custom roms (many steps for flashing method).
if you think you are not sure what will you do to your phone, try stay safe with stock one and no one responsible for your own work on your device if something happen accidentally.
Just my two cent and if this could give you some idea, press thank button for my writing time here.
do a search in this forum to see if someone else has asked same question on how to go to stock.

I already rooted my device and flashing custom Rom now and I'm satisfied with the sense 5 experience Rom. If you don't have more experience on rooting or flashing..etc and u don't like to do research, better stay on stock.
