Did you simply disable/remove the Sense UI from the system or did you flash a custom vanilla ROM? Care to share??![]()
They have a Senseless rom over at xda you can download and try.

Yes I am. Works really well. I got my download from the link above. My directions changed a little bit though. Follow these here.
1. Download the unrevolved.zip file from the XDA forums. http://roms.sodpit.com/roms/ozzeh/unrevolved.zip
2.Rename unrevolved.zip to update.zip (this isn't absolutely necessary but makes it easier)
3. Place the new file in the root folder of your sd card on the phone
4. Reboot the phone into HBOOTby holding Vol- and Power
5. Scroll down to "RECOVERY" and press the power button.
6. When the ClockworkMod Recover appears scroll to and select "wipe data/factory reset" (note: this will wipe all your user data) (Note: when you're in clockworkmod you can use the optical trackpad and MUST use it's button to select items. Hitting the Power button goes back)
7. Once that's complete, scroll to and select "wipe cache partition"
8. Once complete, scroll to and select "apply sdcard:update.zip" (only if you renamed it to update.zip, otherwise scroll to and select "install zip from sdcard" and scroll to/select unrevolved.zip
9. Once that applies select "reboot system now"
10. Let the phone start up completely and add this file to the sdcard: http://roms.sodpit.com/roms/ozzeh/apps.zip
11. Reboot into the ClockworkMod Recovery with instructions 4 & 5.
12. Scroll to "install zip from sdcard" and scroll to app.zip to install the google apps.
13. Reboot device. This will prompt the google startup where it asks for account information.
I have to credit Larsrya8 over at the XDA forums for posting some information. I take no credit for any of these steps. This is what worked for me after reading the forum over there.

sorry for posting the links. i didn't know about the permission part. i guess i jumped the gun in trying to help out.
no offense taken and i didn't think you were being rude.
thanks, btw, for keeping us all up-to-date with the rooting/reflashing process.
Also by the way everyone, I have seen some people saying you have to rename ROMs to update.zip before installing. THAT IS NOT TRUE, with clockwork mod recovery you can name it whatever you want and it will flash. Just wanted to clearify that for everyone.
hey borgey can you drive over to johnston and root my phone for me or can i bring my laptop (and other goodies) over your house and you can root my phone there

this is kind of painful actually. My phone is rebooting, program stops responding or changing.. i start over and keep going and going.. Took less time to root the damn thing.. i don't have HTC Sync on my PC, i'm using windows 7, I set the phone on airplane mode so i don't recieve txts or emails to interupt it... WTF is going on?
I couldn't get root until I got the 4gig class 4 kingston then it only took an hour of trying.
