Don't hold your hopes too high. So far it failed. But there are few more things that need to be tested before confirming that it's a no go. We need testers, so pop in to the IRC channel In my sig. Ganesh007 should be able to walk you through it at some oiint today.
Sent from my HTC Sensation XE with Beats Audio using xda premium
+1 to that
initial tests failed but..its a huge success in HTC-ONE-X forum...so i guess it should be working in your case too..
so now im going to give you the tool
(its not mine..I havent developed it )
i took the tool from
this thread and modified it a little bit to support sensation/XE/4G
tool:
DB link -root-sensation-windows
right now this tool supports windows ony
DISCLAIMER: i wont be responsible if this process bricks your device (which i highly doubt it) ..so run this tool at your own risk
NOTE:
1.first of all you need to make sure that you guys have adb/fastboot setup(if you dont then check
this guide)
2.check whether your device is being recognized.
To check this follow the below steps
- connect your mobile to pc...keep your device in lock screen/home screen
- open the folder where your adb/fastboot present
- hold shift + right click on the white space of the folder and click "open command window here"
- type "adb devices" without quotes...it should show your device serial number
- that's all your device is attached now
instructions on how to run the tool:
1.Download the zip file i've linked.
2.Extract root-sensation-windows.zip into a directory on your computer.
3.Plug your HTC SENSATION/XE/4G into your computer via USB. Recommended: Plug your device’s
USB cable into the back of your computer if you’re using a desktop PC.
4.Enable USB Debugging on your HTC sensation. Settings >> Develop Options >>USB debugging (checked)
5.Double click root.bat to run the script and wait until it completes. Don't touch the device until it's run completely.
6.if "EVERYTHING DONE..ROOT SUCCESS...ONE FINAL REBOOT NOW" comes in the command windows which pops up after double clicking the root.. Then it's a success.
6.reboot and check the root access via root check basic app.
It should not take more than 3 minutes to run the complete code
If it got halted in the middle.. Please post me back the last print present in the cmd window that poped up after double clicking root file
