Skipping a step because it didn't work will never fix the issue. If 5S is not working, the files might be corrupted.

I just unrooted my phone and updated to 1.47 then I rooted it using SimpleRoot.
It really is painless.
All you need is
1 - Microsoft .NET Framework 4.0
2 - HTC Sync
3 - Make sure your phone is on USB Debug mode.

Then download the simpleroot file.
Unzip it onto your pc and click the "OTA SimpleRoot.exe"
Then just follow the prompts.

Have you ever tried it? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=720565

Wrong one. Simple 1....3 is for the original evo before the OTA. Notice that thread was created 2 weeks before the OTA.
If you just got a new phone, it most likely has the OTA done.
