[UK O2] bootloader unlock help - HTC Sensation XL

Hi,
Hope someone can help me with this. I am looking to unlock my bootloader on the htcdev site but only sensation xl Vodafone shows up on the list but I'm on O2. Anyone know which option I choose to unlock my O2 model? And how danerous is it using the htcdev site?
Many thanks

I think that's the standard sensation listed there for vodafone, not the XL.
Just select 'Other supported models' at the bottom. it should work fine.

how to know the original ROM for my sensation xl

hi all
i got an sensation xl and i flashed a developed rom
my device is working properly but the battery consumption is not normal and the full charge battery will be consumed after 6 hours which is not normal compared to my other device one x - i think it is because of the flashed rom
now i want to install an official rom for middle east but that is not possible as the s-off is not available yet. accordingly i have no choice only to install the original official rom for my sensation xl - but, the problem is i dont know the source region of my device
so is is it possible to know the official rom from the device serial number or IMEI?
or if any body tried a cocked rom which is stable and have low battery consumption please advice also
thanks
You can try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1559683.
Frankly i didn't flash any but users report good thing about Alex and Musketeer rom's. Try them out
Look for your CID and you will know the region.

That's weird, shouldn't need to open it though. Should be .exe file extension.
To 'flash' just plug your phone in and into fastboot mode. Then on your PC just duoble (or single) click the RUU.exe file should work. If it doesn't open then right click and run as admin

Problem with rooting

I have unlocked the bootloader, but i cannot root my phone. I have installed this recovery,download2.clockworkmod.com/recoveries/recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.3.1-ville.img . I have followed this tutorial http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1583427.
I cannot also use modaco's recovery, and i can't understand why.
That is for ville, you need it for runnymede, or just download the xl multi tool

If your device is s off you should be able to go back to GB ruu. Just go to htcruu.com and find a ruu for Runnymede, it should be named something with Europe and then take the one with smallest number

There are several ways. But why back to stock GB ROM?
1.
Unlock boot loader, flash recovery and then flash a custom GB ROM
2.
Still unlock and flash and root and then s off and then run the ruu file you like.
All can be done with my tool easy. It will just not flash ROM for you. Also look in the thread for info.
If you want custom ROM then the safest way I know is after you have rooted your device and makes it s off , download the Chinese ROM and rcmix ROM I have linked to in my thread.
When you have flashed Chinese ROM, let it boot up and pick English, go to developer menu and enable debbuging for USB and reboot to recovery, also done easy with my tool, and flash rcmix ROM and do the same. When you have flashed both and are in recovery, flash any ROM for sensation XML , but remember to do it as written in the thread where ROM is downloaded.
