I just flashed my HTC Desire with the Android 2.3.3 upgrade from HTC developer website. But now when I try to root it using the Unrevoked (recovery reflash tool) version 3.32 which is what I used the last time, it fails to root it.
Does Unrevoked support rooting 2.3.3?
If not, what other tool or method can I use?
Like I said, I used Unrevoked last time to root 2.29.405.2 and I used AlphaRev to set S-OFF. Is there a way I can flash it with 2.29, root it, set S-OFF, and then only upgrade Android to 2.3.3 without affecting other parts of the system?
I have visited the wiki pages of the Unrevoked project, but there are no specifics about what Android versions are supported.
Screenshots
Here are some screenshots of Unrevoked.
Update2:
I used SuperOneClick version 2.3.3.0 and it seemed like it managed to root it. Here's a log.

It says "restarting as root". But the thing is when I run the Root Checker Basic app it says "sorry! this device does not have proper root access." What gives?
So I'm back on square one again.
Update 3:
I tried the GingerBreak tool, as mentioned here. I installed the APK manually from my computer with ADB. I then launched the app and let it do its thing. After over 10 minutes without any results I aborted it. It doesn't say in the article if the phone needs to be connected to the computer when you do this. They mention that USB debugging needs to be enabled. I don't understand why if the phone doesn't need to be connected. But I tried both connected and disconnected, didn't work either way I tried.
Update 4:
Use the Revolutionary method!
I would have posted a step by step instruction with screenshots but as you can see the question has been marked as a duplicate and I can no longer post an answer to it. So I can just tell you to go to the "duplicate" question and look for instructions there (the link on top of this page).
