Hi guys!

Was wondering if anyone knew how to help me here;

I want to root my phone but it seems with the latest firmware upgrade it has become rather tricky.

These are the details for my phone:

- HTC Incredible S
- Android version: 2.3.5
- HTC Sense version: 3.0
- HBoot: 2.00.0000

If anyone can point me in the right direction it would be much appreciated! :).

I have tried the revolutionary method but the program does not support my HBoot?

Head over to XDA-developers for some options.

One option is to downgrade your HBOOT so you can use Revolutionary.
Option two is to go to HTCDEV.com and unlock the bootloader and then you can install ClockworkMod recovery and then flash the latest SU-3.0.xxxx.zip to root your phone.

In both causes you first have to unlock the bootloader which will inform HTC that you are modding your phone and could possible void your warranty.
