How to flash: (Don't use ROM Manager! Flash ROM following the steps below:)
- Download ROM and place it on your SD card
- Download "Super Wipe" script & place it on your SD card (optionally if coming from earlier version of my ROM, obligatory if coming from stock or other custom ROM)
- Boot your phone in recovery mode (vol down + power)
- In main menu, select "install zip from sdcard"
- Select "choose zip from sdcard" and browse to the location of "Super Wipe" script
- Once again select "choose zip from sdcard" and browse to the location of Android Revolution ROM
- After flashing process is complete, reboot the device
What did you do in clockwork, can you be a little more specific please?
Here's the ARHD Process taken from the XDA thread:
Which bit did you get stuck on?

Unlikely, as fastboot is disabled in ARHD by default.

Head to Settings -> About Phone -> Software Info.
Your current radio should be the Baseband Info. The first part doesn't really matter, it's the last 8 numbers that are important.
My current radio is 12.62.60.72U_26.13.04.19_M (there is a newer one)
The first part might differ, but the bit I've made bold is the important bit. If you've flashed the recommended radio for ARHD, yours will be slightly different to that (26.14.xx.xx I think).
Does that make sense chief?

It does that mate.
Mines reading12.56.60.25U_26.10.04.03_M
Must have done it correctly
My mate had that on his Sensation, showing UK instead of Inverness. He sorted it by installing GPS Status, letting that calibrate his GPS, and he was fine.

Cheers, off to the market i go
I was stuck in recovery... it said that I was on ARHD ... but i tried power off and reboot , and i was still stuck in recovery. There were options to flash zip files and mount data , but i didnt know what to do ...
fast boot was still on ( i believe ) and i hadnt flashed any themes or radios
Yeah, I've seen that before, it sort of hangs at the screen telling you the flash has been successful? Leave it a minute or so and that should clear.
Excellent

So I'm good to go and try that again? After flashing the rom I just reboot and wait, even if it's still in recovery?
Don't reboot immediately, if it's the same thing I'm thinking of, just wait a minute at the successful screen and the clockwork menu should appear and you'll be able to reboot from there.
I havent tried it again yet , but what i was seeing , was the same as when i first entered recovery exept that the rom that was on it was android revolution.

1. Back up app data and let your phone download the apps from the martket, then restore the data.
2. That's just what a nandroid backup is for - you will return to EXACTLY as the phone was when you did the backup though... I restored a backup that was a month or so old (in error) and ended up loosing quite a few texts that I had received whilst running a different ROM.
(note that this will not be the same as running an RUU - your phone will still be rooted and, should you send it to HTC, they will be able to tell that it's rooted)

You can download Gingerbread keyboard from the market, it should be as good as. Alternatively, take a look at the ICS Keyboard.
You can also use his Sense kernel, but LorDmod UE is just for AOSP ROMs.

Got the ICS Keyboard chief, looks and works pretty much the same as the CM7 one.
Cheers
When you have a minute could you fire up a link for Lordmods Sense kernel, had a wee look around but not sure which one it is.
Cheers
Here you go: xda-developers - View Single Post - [DEC18]DeSenseNG 4.6.1|LorDmodNCTeam Kernel 5.0|SuperCharged|UltraSmooth|Sense3|2.3.5
Version 5 is the most recent. You might want to try the LeeDroid kernel though? That's regarded (or was) as one of the best Sense based kernels about.
I quite like the ICS keyboard too
