Hi, I recently bought a used Sensation XE in nice condition.
For the last 18 months I've had a Desire which I rooted and ran a custom ROM.
Obviously I'd like to root my sensation although I'm not planning to run anything too extreme.
I've seen several guides suggesting using Clockwork Mod, 4EXT recovery or various root kits.
Has anyone seen an easy guide which would help me not mess up?
There seem to be several options available and I'm not sure which is best for my phone and versions.
My phone appears to be unbranded and is running:
Android Version 4.0.3
Sense 3.6
Software # 3.33.401.153
Baseband version
11.76A.3504.00U_11.24A.3504.31_M
The white boot screen says:

Thanks !!
Check this awesome thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=27556870
It has everything you will need or want to know. For starters, I would either HTC dev unlock the bootloader, or s-off your phone. Then I would install the 4ext custom recovery. After that, you can flash any ROM you want. My favorite is albinoman's 4.2.2 jellybean, but viper s jellybean ROM with sense is pretty popular. All the awesome ROMs are in the development section.

Good luck and happy flashing!

Look in development forum there is a sticky post full of stock roms along with an INDEX thread
Swyped from my Desire S using XDA Premium
It's amazing, the number of people who've made RUU requests in the past 24hrs. It really would help if people would read/search the General as well as Q&A forums for relevant topics.
On another note, one may state it shows the degree of confidence people have in XDA

Actually, any of your choice which suits your needs. You might wanna create a Gold Card first however.
Hello.
I have a rooted DHD with Gingerbread 2.3.1 on it.
Specs :

I really do not remember how i rooted it.
Now, my phone has some issues and i want to update it to 4.0.
I RUU it, using RUU_Ace_Gingerbread_S_HTC_WWE_2.36.405.8_R_Radio_12.54.60.25_26.09.04.11_M2_release_187331_signed.exe. It worked like a charm, but i cannot make any update to my software and I really do not know if it worked the reset.
My question is : it is the right way to unroot and reset to factory defaults so i could upgrade OTA the firmware or is something i did wrong ? How i can upgrade to 4.0 ?
Please be so kind and explain as for noobies.
Thank you !
I tried that but I couldn't get it to work. Your best bet is to go get a custom ics rom from dhd development thread. I am using lord mod 6.1 works like a charm.

I have a Galaxy S II rooted (thanks to chainfire) and I updated from GingerBread to Ice Cream Sandwich using Odin and the stock firmware.
After that I rooted successfully the phone for the 9th time with CF-root.
Maybe you can do the same with HTC device
I see 4.0 for DHD is quite buggy. You should MIUI
I am newbie in this stock recovery stuff. I have HTC one X which is at Team win recovery project 2.2 screen right now. Could anybody please tell me how can i go from here. I would like to install stock rom on this unit. Please provide me the links for HTC one X stock rom for Rogers canada.

I am looking for stock rom , if i can get ICS on it but no custom Rom please . Thanks a lot for your reply. Just curious what does RUU means ?
I swear I've read somewhere once that it is possible, though more tedious... but after hours of searching, I can no longer find the post I read that said I could do it and how to. I'm very new to Android, and 'somewhat' technical, but am nervous about going S-OFF and not entirely even sure my phone can be S-OFF, after finding countless posts saying I can't do S-OFF on the newer HTC One because of my version of HBOOT something something.
I'm preparing for Android Revolution HD v52.1 when it's released, which will have T-Mobile WiFi Calling implemented and am loving using a Custom ROM. If there's a way to update to the latest Firmware, that would be wonderful.
I have a Mac, but can switch to Windows if necessary using Parallels or BootCamp. Thank you in advance for any help provided.

I got some help in the Android Revolution HD IRC Chat room and found out that a newer tool, Firewater, is capable of putting HTC Ones into S-OFF and quite easily, so for anyone that needs the help, it worked on my HTC One with the newer HBOOT, etc... Here's the link: firewater-soff.com

Hello Xda !
I've read many threads but they all seemed to be old so I wanted to know if there is news on this subject.
I've bought my HTC one XL two years ago and I've put on a rom by Turge (I think it was this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2423735 )
My phone is now a little bit slow now and I can't have 4G on it I don't know why. I want to go back to a stock rom but here is the problem :
Originally my phone was a Roger, then I've put the venom rom and the Turge one.
Is it possible to go to a "stock" french vodafone ROM ? Will I be able to get OTA update ? And will the 4G be working ?
If not, I have to go back to a Roger stock rom ? Will the 4G be working ?
This are my phone information:
