I thought the problem with the motor sound though? reprogramming your ESC will change your rotation, but a quick fix is just swapping two of the wires in the sensorless setting to troubleshoot the sound.
if you're determined to run sensored (or the ESC can't in fact run sensorless), then yes try the ESC reprogramming.
and don't get frustrated... the first couple of times programming the ESC with all of the beeps can be tough. you won't get it the first time
I had a Hobbyking (not hobbyw) motor that went bad really quickly, was a problem with a couple coil wires catching the magneto and jamming a bit. once the motor spun a few times, the wires were pushed back into their coil. you can take the 2-3 screws out, and slide the magnet out of the motor and see if there is any binding happening.

So, I take it you have the manual and just don't understand?.
Tx on
Hold set button
Turn on ESC
Will flash red then
1green
Keep holding set
2 green
Keep holding set
3 green
And so on till you get 11 green flashes
Release the set button
You are now in mode11 motor rotation
Only 2 settings
Use set button to pick the one you want.
Turn off esc
Also calibrate the ESC to your tx with throttle maxed out.

There is the option to take the rig into your local hobby shop for hands on help if the help here is not getting things resolved. No promise that they will just help out of kindness but most guys I talk to that work in the shop would have no problem taking a moment to lend a hand. It helps though to be recognized as a returning paying customer for this free help. But it can be an option if it is only getting you more frustrated
