How do I root my device? - HTC Sensation XL

So, I tried the method suggested (EVO 3D), and yet nothing happened. I followed the instructions to the 'T'. Can anyone point me in the right direction please?
Cheers guys

Did you enable debugging. I dont think it installs anything like superuser? If not download a root checker from market to check.

I enabled debugging
I'll check the root but I doubt it worked. The script just got stuck on daemon something...
EDIT: Root access not acquired

I had the same problem, have you got HTC Sync installed ? If so, uninstall that as the ADB.exe is already running a session from that while your trying to run a second one from the script. That will sort your out

[Q] Bootloader unlock from htcdev(urgent)

Hello,
I need an advise/clarification about unlocking bootloader of mu sensation xl on htcdev.com...on this website there is a list of devices in which my device is not in it..kindly tell me is it safe if i select "All other supported models" and then proceed with the bootloader unlock??
Is there any harm if i follow this procedure...they have also mentioned that devices launched after 9/2011 will be shipped with unlock capability and this phone is launched on 10/2011.so im kinda confused.. :-S thanks in advance

Pure simply rooted ICS 2.31 ROM + help request

anyone posted a simple rooted/busybox/zipaligned base 2.31.401.2 RUU ROM?
Without any tweaks?

what's the quickest solution for me? i don't have the ICS hboot and i want to flash the new 2.31 ICS ROM with the very least amount of customization and stock kernel
please advice and help, im clueless about Runnymede, so much info about hboot and stuff that im getting confused
You need to unlock and and root with doomlord root tool then flash unlimited.io hboot with their recovery.. then you can choose any ics to flash..

i have to flash ICS hboot am i correct? also doomlord root tool unlocks and roots or i need htc dev?
It is better for you to unlock 1st with htcdev.. then unlock using doomlord tool.. then go to unlimited.io and go to runnymede hboot section and follow the instruction there..

perfect last question, once i have full ICS how can i flash su?
Just go to sense 4 tom thread.. there a zip for root.. just flash it.. and you are good to go!
Edit : There was a thread in general section for root i think.. you can go there yo recheck.. because i never use stock ruu.. and you maybe need to use doomlord tool again cause you dont have recovery after running ruu. Sorry, if i'm not on phone.. i'll give you link..

[Q]how to root htc sensation xl running android 4.0.3

[Q]how to root htc sensation xl running android 4.0.3 OFFICIAL UPDATE
Alright so here's the deal I've got an unlocked sensation xl (using HTCdev) and now I want to root it can someone plz post a noob guide as to how to do it
You will need the root tool from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1625841 which will need putting on your sdcard because it needs flashing from recovery
Then you will need to flash recovery in fastboot from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1216504&d=1343047739
Once recovery is flashed, boot into recovery and flash the root tool from there and then reboot
Once rebooted go to app drawer and look for SuperSU open it and it should say it needs updating just click ok and it should update and thats it.....
Thanx I'll try it now

We need more info. What rom are you using? Did it just stop without you install or flashed anything?

[Q] Where can i find original HTC software ?

I installed a ROM and forgot to do a backup before, i know, i know... Where could i find an original version of the software for North America, Canada ? Tried HTC sync but it wont see the phone when connected even after installing and reinstalling numerous times. I have CMW installed, so all i need is a flashable version of the software.
Thanks
Hummm is this section still alive?
I think you should to know your cid
