How to flash Custom ROM on my Desire S ?

I'm a new android user who just bought a new android phone, HTC desire S. I've been searching all over the Desire S forum but can't find a tutorial on flashing the custom ROM. Also, I don't understand what is S-Off and other stuffs as this is very new to me.. Hope someone could guide me. Thanks!
Wanted to use this rom but the instructions there is just too confusing... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1060742

[HTC Sensation] Need help - very desperate :(

Hi,
I have spent around 4 hours browsing through the forum and found lot of helpful guides. But unfortunately for every single guide, I got stuck.
The things I want to achieve:
Remove the stupid O2 brand logo on start ups
Remove Simlock, so I can use any sim cards
SuperOneClick freezes after I click on Root
Universal Androot doesn't support my phone
Can someone advise me how to tackle this problem?
thanks a lot

Well for rooting use revolutionary.
Sensation 4G sporting the wonderful MIUI

Hi,
Splash flasher should place a new image in O2 place.
Debrand is HERE
Sorry,don't know the other two.

Go into the Sensation Android Development section and the stickies have all the info you need. First you need to S-OFF with revolutionary and then you CID to blank and then remove the simunlock. It's all in there. And then after you're done, flash a custom rom and kernel.

[Q] Goldcard .img Creator still down NEED HELP PLZ

Hi everyone sorry if I have posted this in the wrong area I did have a good luck through the site but lots of the posts seemed to be old with no solution.
(Please move post to correct area if applicable)
I currently have a HTC wildfire I am trying to unlock the network lock on the phone, I know this is done with Revolutionary, however my current h-boot version is 1.01.0002 so from 4 hours of reading around many websites I gathered that firstly I need to downgrade my h-boot to 1.01.0001, to do this I need to obtain my reversed CID code, I have that by the looks of it the link in the gold card tool has been down for some time now, so I can’t generate a .img file.....
Is there something I am missing?
Can I make my own .img without the site?
Is there another site?
Is there another programme to downgrade the Hboot?
I am really hitting a brick wall with this one and it is really irritating me?
Please help me
Thanks in advance...

Found a solution? I need one too... I am trying to fix my HTC ChaCha. Stupid S-ON won't let me install stock rom zips or anything related to stock ROM which is what I WANT. My original ROM got broken by Busybox and/or Link2SD. Another course is if someone would kindly provide me a Nandroid backup of their rooted stock ROM (Europe or Asia WWE please...).
*sigh* This has been very stressful for me. :'(

Ha, ha ... after reading this: Videotron/Mobilicity Panache thread by cmstlist ... I know what you mean
Ok, this seems to be a working guide how to root your device.
It's still complex, but if you really want root, you should consider going through this step-by-step.
If it's too complicated for you, maybe you should not root your device.
And if you need further help, please ask in this thread directly.
Good luck !
