Hi I'm new to this forum I just received the phone today I was just wondering how do I root this phone or put a custom rom on it when I'm on the google update 4.0.3
Please help p.s. I searched around for a couple days and still confused what S-off stands for or how to get to recovery... I'm more of a samsung man.
Follow this guide if you want to flash custom ROMs with S Off:

Hi,
Please follow THIS THREAD
Take the Rom.zip file that you have flashed and you will need to go to your pc or laptop and unzip it and then it will create a folder and then you will open that folder and scroll down and you will see a folder that will say kernel open it and you will see a file called boot.img you will copy it to the same folder that you have your adb and fastboot drivers in and then open up your cmd and type your commands to get your fastboot driver's working and then typ fastboot flash boot boot.IMG press enter and then type fastboot reboot and watch the magic

And to flash those rom's you have listed you will need to flash the correct firmware and you need to have s off first before you can flash ics rom's

But what exactly do i type in command line prompt to get the fastboot driver working

fastboot flash boot [your boot.img location]
i think youd bettery make your phone s-off.
The instuctions are in the first post I sent you oh about six post down read it the answer's are there

You want to have s-OFF not on.
Soff you will have more capability. So you will want to s off

can you please follow the extra 1 step ..from the link given by malybru(2nd or 3rd post i think) ..atleast you will come out of bootloop after that ..then you can try SOFF or whatever
I turned s off and I flashed ordroid v9 and it was stuck on the white HTC screen. It turned black for like three seconds then returned to the HTC boot screen.

Did you follow the thread that malybru linked to? I am on hboot 1.27 and s-on and I can flash every ICS rom out there that supports firmware 3.32-3.34, which is by far the most, if not all.
And thank you malybru for pointing me in the right direction.

what do you mean you turned s off? Did you follow the procedure to s off the device because s off is not a button you can turn off. It is a procedure to disable security. Once your s off you can flash without trouble. Please read the link provided to the procedure. If you are s off you should not have these issues.
Sent from my Sensation using xda premium
Yes I followed the procedure and now I have s off. When I flashed ordroid it didn't even reach the beats audio boot screen as I said before it shows the.white HTC logo screen, turns black, then goes back to the HTC screen.

Did you use the correct 3.32 firmware? If
Not thats the issue. All ics roms must have 3.32 firmware.

1. RUU back to latest stable, that way you have all of the proper bootloaders and radios.
2. Follow numerous guides in dev section about S-Off and flashing the correct firmware.
3. Flash recovery.
4. Flash rom of your choice.
Should get it all taken care of for you. Good luck! :cyclops:
Finally I got it to work on ordroid so I can tell the changes (volume,settings, etc) but when I go home it says loading then says 'unfortunately, HTC has stopped"
Then I return to my previous launcher. THIS ISN'T OVER

My sensation freezes if a call comes in if using anything on phone . It restarts its self but then Bluetooth isn't on . Then I only if I pull battery out while on resets everything . Anything I can do to fix this problem ?

what the state of your phone bootloader..?, unlocked or locked..?, s-on or s-off..?, or all still in stock..?
if it is still in stock...did you already tried to do a factory reset from the bootloader..?

RUU(Rom Update Utility) is the official stock rom for the device
otherwise follow bouchakour1971's suggestion(if you want to root and flash a custom rom)
