I'll believe it does work on that hboot , follow the guide that you'll find within this thread
Look for the section entitled How To: S-Off your device with Revolutionary: S-OFF & Recovery Tool where you find comments
NOTE: For HBOOT 0.98.0002, please use this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1194488
If you have done this, then please provide any output that you receive....capture screen if possible.
Edit: corrected mistake

It works fine on this bootloader (0.98.0002).
The only thing that needs to be done is to run fre3vo to gain temp root before running Revolutionary, because Revolutionary fails to temp-root, as specified in the linked guide.

My rom is 1.48.707.1 and Hboot 0.98.0.0.2. I have successfully s-offed my desire S. As Jack _R1 said, we need fre3vo to get temporary root.

I stand corrected, amended above post, so correct.

Official ICS to Custom ROM SENSE 4

Is it any chance to flash some sense 4 ROM into my Sensation with official update of ICS ? I unlocked bootloader from htc website but still s-on hboot 1.27?
Is any way maybe to downgrade to gingerbread or other solution for this ?

No. There are countless threads saying Revolutionary S-OFF is needed on Gingerbread before upgrading. Please read, now you will have to wait until someone finds a way to unlock it on the new HBOOT.
Don't use HTCDev. You're just letting HTC know you've rooted your phone. I'm not sure why people even use it - maybe because they think it's "official" or something. Oh well.

No. Well actually you can, but 95% that your phone will not boot
You want a Sense 4 ROM? Then flash one from the Development section?
You want official ROM? Do not flash on a rooted/S-Offed phine- use the RUU.
By the way the development sub-forum has a lot of guides and answers

Thanks but I already did official update to ICS and now no way back until someone make it possible.

Why then on htc official site say unlock bootloader to flash custom rom if it is not possible because s-on ?

I remember unlocking my bootloader. It actually does not S Off. But I managed to root. Problem though is that my phone in running on ICS. Theres no way I can get my phone to S Off, and now cannot flash a custom ROM.

Doesn't a custom recovery work? Have you tried Super-CID?

It works. Never tried super CID. I only unlocked my bootloader. No S Off. Weird.

You can flash roms after htc Dev unlock. Install custom recovery, flash rom. Does anyone read this forum before asking questions?

Sorry about that.. solved my problem, i forgot that @ revolutionary site you can choose the hboot version XD. the supported ones are 1.17 and 1.18, anyway my problem is solved 'cause i've used a RUU to return back to hboot 1.18, anyway thank you!

It is possible i already did it one time when i recovered the phone with the 1.45 RUU starting from a Android 4.0.3 based custom rom, it's a bit twisted process but not that hard

I know its possible with s-off. But with stock, unrooted ICS iT's not..
