Root HTC Sensation Rom on myTouch 4G

I'm assuming this is flashed just like a regular rom? Backup current date, wipe, install then reboot?
 
Is there a link to very clear installation instructions for the virtuous unity (v-2.39.0.zip) rom on to the My Touch 4G?

My MT4G seems to be acting crazy and HTC suggested loading a new rom.

T Mobile store guy ( a nice guy at that!) could not reboot using a special T Mobile sd card made to reboot this phone, so I must do it myself.

Since the phone is no longer supported by HTC any more it was suggested by the HTC CSR on the phone I find a suitable rom and install it my self.

When I attempt to completely reboot the phone (down volume> press power button> scrool to reboot, hit reboot) stuff happens, all apps still appear, even those I have manually uninstalled.

If I do reboot from inside the phone : Settings: Phone and SD card: Reboot, ... same thing, all apps appear and messages come up that indicate I am best to wipe the phone and start from scratch with a clean and new functioning ROM. I discovered Virtuous Unity ROM in my research.


So a new ROM may in fact be in order. Without pre-installed or any apps. I am ready to start afresh.


I am new at this ROM procedure, never before rooted a phone or loaded a new rom.

So I also need to know how to make my phone (MT4G) ready to be rooted with the Virtuous_unity-2.39.0.zip.

A step by step walk through will be greatly appreciated.

Please assume I know nothing.

Am starting with a phone with Android Version: 2.3.4

HTC Sense 2.1

Software 2.32.532.1

Please let me know.


I downloaded the virtuous _unity.zip, 450MB, file onto my PC and am awaiting direction.

I have a blank sd card ready to go. A USB cable ready to use.

Am unsure what to do next.

Thanks in advance,
Robert
