You are S-Off, which makes it easy. If you don't have a recovery fastboot flash a recovery, then flash a ROM from recovery. Instructions in the Ace Think Tank linked in my signature.

thanks for your answer
First, go to Settings>About phone>Software information and post the software version we can see if you're on something that can be unrooted...

Baseband 32.48.00.32U_5.10.05.30
kernel 2.6.32.15-ge2c73db

I have the same hboot as you 093, and i root my phone with unrevoked 3.2 method, and i'm realy pleased now and happy. Just goole unrevoked, you will find it on the unlockr site. Just folow the steps there, will be a bit triky with the drivers for the computer....you will see some discutions on the forums. Folow the steps acurate... and with this method you cant brick your phone....Good luck

i read on the alpharev site that you need a base rom to s-off... can't i s-off on a prerooted custom rom based on official android 2.3? it's Alex's custom rom. I don't want to re-intall a base rom and go through rooting process again... i just want to be able to use chainfire.. what are the risks involved in s-off process?
just download revolutionary.
it will give you s-ff and optional custom recovery on any rom i believe
only requirement is hboot 0.93 or 1.02
Revolutionary support site lits all supported devices.

Hi, you don't need s-off to flash roms,do a nandroid backup of current setup before just in case.
just download cm version you desired. Put it on your sdcard. from cwm,wipe data/ factory reset, clear data,system and caches (not sdcard) then flash zipped rom from cwm. Don't forget the Google apps pack (gapps) if you need market etc etc. Flash directly after rom flash, before reboot for best results.
All you need is in here.

" once its gone,its GONE."
All you need is clockworkmod recovery version 3 and higher for flash CyanogenMod.
Unrevoked supports this hboot, my wildfire is rooted that way (but still s-on) and after u r rooted just flash the rom via recovery

Hello,
I have HTC Inspire from AT&T. Have rooted and unlocked to 2.2.1. Now I would like to upgrade from 2.2.1 to 4. Can somebody help me How to upgrade Android HTC Inspire from 2.2.1 to 4?

Just (optionally backup) and full wipe and flash from recovery. Did you unlock with AAHK or HTCDEV? If HTCDEV, you also need to fastboot flash the boot.img. And make sure your recovery is updated.
