Hello everyone,
I have an Htc Sensation XE hboot 1.29.0000 which is unlocked bootloader and rooted.
Now I want to install cyanogenmod and I need s-off. But when I search online, the only thing I saw how to s-off is to do the wire trick.
I don't want to do s-off in terms of hardware.
Is there any way to s-off using any softwares like last time we did in gingerbread?
Please reply me at least whether yes or no! I will be looking forward to the replies.

Thanks,
Phyo Aung Khant.

You dont need S-Off just to flash custom ROM. You just need Unlocked bootloader and 4EXT Recovery to flash custom ROM being S-On. And for S-Off, the wire trick is the only method to achieve S-Off with 1.2X hboots

How to use 4ext recovery

and don't forget to enable 4ext smartflash before flashing
Now the recovery I got is ClockworkMod Recovery Touch v5.8.0.9
Last time I flashed the Cyanogenmod Zip from the ClockworkMod Recovery, it stopped during the boot stage.
As you two said, if I use 4ext recovery, that problem will be gone, right?
So can you post any link to tutorials or videos to install 4ext recovery?
And also I don't know what is smartflash.
Please explain to me.

Thanks,
Phyo Aung Khant.
