Not been in this situation personally, but as far as I know, since you are s-off, you should be able to flash a recovery and then use it to flash a custom ROM that is already rooted. You may be able to install the Superuser app without having to go through all that, but, like I said, I am not 100% sure.

install superuser through cmd prompt on ur computer..there isnt any other way around it..just google it and its super easy

Look in the sticky, flash the 1.4 HBOOT.
Find the TWRP thread, flash that.
Flash a ROM of your choice.

If all you're wanting is to root the stock ROM, flash a custom recovery, then flash the superuser.zip.

Thanks everyone. My bootloader is locked and I'm 1.5 and s-off. So if i flash hboot 1.4 on my sd card. then a recovery along with a rom. That should get me back?

If your boatloader is locked you can't install a custom recovery or a Rom.

If it says S-OFF hboot 1.4, you my good friend are free to flash whatever you want. Happy flashing.
