Hi,
That tool will work on the Sensation,but it will not s-off.
Check my signature for s-off.
OR:
Look HERE
This will enable you to install custom ROMS with s-on.
Read the whole thread carefully.

No stock options for you there... you'll have to use a custom ROM with ultra smooth rosie tweak to eliminate 3D
As I know there is no turning back when you unlock your device

Hi there, are you missing the sense interface?
it all depends how you got to CM7 in the first place, which I'm guessing required:
1. S-OFF + custom recovery
2. Root
3. Installed custom rom
To go back you need to do this:
1. Download the *stock* rom RUU files for your phone. This allows you to get the phone back to its original stock form.
See: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1002506
2. Change the bootloader. This allows the RUU to overwrite it with the stock bootloader and get it back to S-ON. ENG HBoot is a good one that allows overwriting.
See: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1113820
3. Once you've changed the bootloader, flash the stock RUU over it, which should automatically overwrite the bootloader, S-OFF, recovery and ROM.

[Guide] How to root, install EXT4 recovery and custom ROM on HBOOT 2.00.0002:
Hi, A short but effective guide for people who want to root their Desire S while keeping HBOOT 2.00.0002 and S-ON.
Click to expand...

I used the same method to gain root for my phone, although flashing the boot.img for every rom can be a pain sometimes it's a good way to learn about the tools used ie adb shell etc.
sent from the thing I stab with my finger when I get two minutes
My dad asked me to root his HTC Sensation after seeing my HTC Sensation and all its rooted glory... Well his phone had a different HBOOT. Mine was 1.27.0000 and his was 1.28.something maybe 0000? Well anyways so my HTC Sensation was left S-ON and I just Enabled SmartFlash using 4Ext and mine booted fine. His however I did S-OFF and both our bootloaders are unlocked and both are rooted.
I tried installing a custom ROM (same on mine) and now his Sensation is in a bootloop... The custom ROM in question is Elegancia - Sense 4.1 v3.1.0
I feel like it might be because he was running Gingerbread (I believe) and I was running ICS. However he loved the custom ROM I was using so is there any way?

Since the previous ROM was Gingerbread, the firmware would have been the older one. Just update the firmware to the latest 3.33 and the bootloops should be gone (if not try reflashing ROM after firmware update). There is a guide as well for updating the firmware.
Check the thread of the custom ROM you tried to install, it should state which firmware needs to be installed for this ROM.

Hi,
If you want help,then, it is important that you post CORRECT information.
Otherwise you could be given wrong information which could lead to brick.
If he was running GB,then, his hboot would have been 1.18
If this is correct,then, post the COMPLETE hboot page,so that you can receive the correct guidance...
EDIT:
I notice you also have questions in the Help Thread.
Please keep your questions in ONE place.
Hey guys, I have a rooted HTC Sensation XE running ICS (3.32.720, HBOOT 1.29). I want to get CyanogenMod 10.1. Do I need to S-OFF to do this, or will this JB ROM run on my current firmware?

Yes. You can flash any ROM based on same firmware without being S-Off. You can flash ViperS JB Rom with the same method. Just enable smartflash in the 4EXT recovery and if get stuck in bootloop. Flash boot.img via bootloader. Happy flashing

If you're on 3.32 or 3.33 firmware then you can flash ViperS JB ROM. ViperS 3.1.2 does have some kickass music options and tweaks. I don't know which one is best but ViperS never disappointed me.

Just download the ROM zip and put in your SD card. Boot to recovery and enable smartflash. Wipe data and all partitions except Sd card and flash the zip from recovery. If you get stuck in bootloop then just extract the boot.img from the ROM zip and flash via fastboot. And before doing everything just make a nandroid backup.

it doesn't matter if you are on S-ON or S-OFF
you can flash any ics or jb rom with 3.32 and 3.33 firmware version
which rom is easy on battery ?
Because HTC had very bad battery backup..HD REVOLUTION is good on battery !!

it is always depending from your personal usage and what settings are you planing to do(min/max cpufreq,gpu overclock,undervoltage etc)
you have to see it by yourself and judge accordingly

viperS rom and every rom has kernel including in it
so when you flash the rom the kernel will be changed too
by the way specifically in viperS 3.1.2 rom only one kernel is compatible and it is the one including in the rom
no other kernel works with this rom
thanks a lot for Quick answers.
Can we expect any rom with Sense 5 ??
i suppose there is one under development but no ETA.
