[RECOVERY]Fully functional Clockwork mod by Paul O'Brien - HTC Sensation XL

Hey guys
Some of us here are aware of the current issues faced with the current recovery provided to us by anzhi. There are issues writing to boot partition hence having to flash boot.img manually and wipe data/factory reset seems to not do as such. With this in mind I approached Paul O'Brien founder of Modaco to compile a new recovery based on same original sources but with correct partition numbers etc. This has been done so I am posting this as a reference to his site.
command: fastboot flash recovery r1-recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.7-modaco-runnymede.img(tip is to type r1 then hit tab to complete full line without typing it all)
http://android.modaco.com/topic/348973-clockworkmod-recovery-5027-unofficial-modaco-edition/
****** this is no my personal work so i take no personal credit for its functionality. as usual use at your own risk******

Stickied for the time being

Man are you kidding lol! Turn phone off and turn on while holding vol down and power. There thats bootloader. You cannot adb fastboot! adb reboot bootloader or just do it manually mate. If it doesnt work manually make sure fastboot is turned off in settings and try again. Once in bootloader fastboot will be highlighted so press power to select it and it will say fastboot usb plug. Type command there in cmd prompt. Have to be in folder where adb and fatboot tools are
No dash between reboot and bootloader
Sent from my LG-P920 using xda premium

I checked it now^^
I wondered, why typing "fastboot reboot-bootloader" doesnt manage this commandline....
further, I didnt unlock my bootloader, so my first step was the great problem.....
But thx for your answer^^

Yup if you look in the development section there are two tutorials on how to root. although some version aren't root able so have a look.

Just to make things a bit clearer, because this thread comes up as the first result on google searching "Stock ICS root Sensation XL"
- DOomLords v4, and v2 do not work. Gingerbread only.
- Shingers method from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1625841 does not appear to work for me, get a black screen when booting to recovery after flash, adb works, minimal system, no way to flash anything from /sdcard/.
I'm sure it'll be possible eventually, but I've given up for tonight

That's weird, shouldn't need to open it though. Should be .exe file extension.
To 'flash' just plug your phone in and into fastboot mode. Then on your PC just duoble (or single) click the RUU.exe file should work. If it doesn't open then right click and run as admin

If your device is s off you should be able to go back to GB ruu. Just go to htcruu.com and find a ruu for Runnymede, it should be named something with Europe and then take the one with smallest number

There are several ways. But why back to stock GB ROM?
1.
Unlock boot loader, flash recovery and then flash a custom GB ROM
2.
Still unlock and flash and root and then s off and then run the ruu file you like.
All can be done with my tool easy. It will just not flash ROM for you. Also look in the thread for info.
If you want custom ROM then the safest way I know is after you have rooted your device and makes it s off , download the Chinese ROM and rcmix ROM I have linked to in my thread.
When you have flashed Chinese ROM, let it boot up and pick English, go to developer menu and enable debbuging for USB and reboot to recovery, also done easy with my tool, and flash rcmix ROM and do the same. When you have flashed both and are in recovery, flash any ROM for sensation XML , but remember to do it as written in the thread where ROM is downloaded.
