Download the fastboot utility linked in post #1 for your OS.
If you are using Windows (boo) download and install the HTC Android USB Driver for Microsoft PC from the bottom of this page.
Run the command as appropriate for your OS;
fastboot flash recovery /path/to/<recovery>.img (windows)
./fastboot-mac recovery /path/to/<recovery>.img (mac x86)
./fastboot recovery /path/to/<recovery>.img (linux)

i got the zip file and i put it on my card and it installed and said congrats and enjoy, wen my phone rebooted it had super user on it and it granted permission to rom manager, but i installed screen shot and it says my phone dnt hav root access

Get into recovery and run the root zip file. I renamed my zipped root file update.zip.

S-OFF is just the first step that allows you to then install the recovery, then root.

I'm stuck for doing the root. How did you do it?

I'm stuck for doing the root. How did you do it?

Go here ----> [PATCH] Install Superuser, Busybox and Rooted Kernel (For Use After Obtaining S-OFF) - xda-developers

Just download the attachment and put it on the root of your sd card and then reboot into recovery and flash that file.

I saw that someone flashed that and then couldn't get service. And by the root of SD card is there anywhere specific. I already tried a similar file and Clockwork couldn't find it. Did that patch work for you? And did you have to clear the data in Super user for it to work?
