I looks like you are facing the same issue I am.
The new ROM released for the Aria has a much more secure HBOOT version, and a hardware device called an XTC clip is required for setting S-OFF which is the first step required to root the phone.
If you have a look through the thread I have here it covers what is required.

note I am making life a bit more difficult because I don’t want to just deploy a pre cooked ROM, but the rest is there.

Hi everybody,

I also have the HTC Gratia and want to root it and install custom ROMs.

So what do I ask the guys at the store to do? To turn S-Off and that's it?
After security is off can I use tools like unrevoked to root my phone or do they have to use the XTC Clip for that as well?

So again, please correct me if I'm wrong. To install another ROM i need to:

1.) Go to place that has an XTC Clip and let them turn S-Off
2.) Use a tool like unrevoked to get root
3.) Install a ROM using Clockwerk ROM Manaer for example.

Thanks in advance

Once you gain S-OFF, you can flash ClockworkMod custom recovery. Check out this post and it's associated discussion thread on the steps to follow once you gain S-OFF.
