I was following those instructions. When I run the command fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.0-m7vzw.img I get the error Failed (Remote: Not Allowed).
I have found a few things not specific to the HTC One that indicate I need to move TWRP into a recovery.img file inside a file like PD98IMG.zip that is automatically found in HBOOT. I can't seem to get that to work since I don't know the name the HTC One is looking for ands the ones I've guessed don't work.
Any more ideas?
Are you sure you unlocked the phone? Is there an "*UNLOCKED*" banner in the bootloader?
If you have S-OFF and are unlocked just flash a superuser .zip and you are rooted.

Same Error trying to flash any .zip. I get the Failed (Remote: not allowed).
Get Flashify from the market and see if you can flash a twrp
custom recovery img. Then flash the superuser .zip.

I had already tried Flashify. I gave a message about the phone not being supported for flashing recovery images.
Ok, so to post an answer in case anyone else runs into this issue. I did have S-Off, I was Unlocked and I did have Superuser installed. To overcome the Failed (Remote: not allowed) error I had to run the cmd window (Windows 7) as an Administrator.
Thanks for the suggestions. Bone headed oversight on my part.

i'm also stuck. i'm on a vzw htc one, s-off worked, but i cannot flash TWRP or CWM and thus, cannot get superuser. i tried the both versions of CWM (touch and regular) and the latest TWRP. no dice.
i am on android version 4.2.2, htc sense 5, 1.10.605.15.
s-off is confirmed UNLOCKED in bootloader menu. i used the correct version from rumrunner. i'm getting really frustrated. firewall, antivirus, etc, is all off. drivers are in tact. ADB commands work and i can navigate between fastboot and ABD when running command prompt as admin.
HELP!

Can you post a link to which version of the recoveries you are trying to flash?
Trouble with achieving root.
I just got an HTC One, ran rumrunner and achieved S-Off, but not root. I used the correct rumrunner for the ROM I have (1.10.605.15). I realize I could flash a custom recovery, but I'm looking to just root and continue to use Sense with the stock recovery for the convenience of OTA updates.
I tried to use the "fastboot boot" command to load up an image of TWRP (2.6.3.3) and then install root from there, but for some reason my device just freezes on the fastboot screen despite what feedback my console is giving me. I tried waiting and then flushing the cache to see what the result was. Picture below. Any help is appreciated.
Same here. I just got an HTC one from Verizon yesterday. Turned S-Off using runrunner. Verified root but can not access recovery. I had the same issue with a S4 but it was a known issue for all that has updated to the 4.3.
I have tried all the suggestions above. I am wondering if this is a Verizon related issue? Maybe they are putting something on their phones to prevent recovery?
HELP!!!!

Basic question: My recovery screen shows "***UNLOCKED***, M7_WLV PVT SHIP S-OFF RH". Does this indicate a state of S-OFF or S-ON? I ran rumrunner and thought that I had achieved unlocked and S-OFF status but I cannot run fastboot from a command line. I keep getting the reply that "fastboot" is not recognized as a command. So, I cannot flash twrp and I cannot gain root access. I'd be grateful for any assistance.

From what you said you should be unlocked and s-off. Download twrp image and flash it with Flashify from the Play Store. That is what I did.
Rumrunner didn't jive with my windows 8.1.

Thanks for the reply. I tried Flashify but since I don't have root, I can't run it. Apparently, rumrunner did not gain root on my device. I'm currently running rumrunner again to see if I can get some joy.

That has nothing to do with S-OFF. That is because you are not flashing the CM boot.img in fastboot after flashing the rom in CWM. With an unlocked bootloader you need to do that everytime you flash a rom.
You can acquire eng S-OFF quite easily if you use a mirror to get AAHK. Simply download the PD98IMG files manually when the script needs them. Worked for me today.

However, the script indicates the phone should execute some commands as a final step, at which point my phone is already sitting in the bootloader menu and does nothing.
I'm reasonably comfortable with ADB commands and the terminal emulator on the phone.
Can anyone help me understand why I'm failing and what I might do to get the CWM Recovery installed and get ROM Manager working?

If the Easy Ace Root Tool worked fine, then you should have CWM recovery installed....Rom manager needs you to be rooted to work, but an unlocked bootloader allows you to flash a custom recovery.

Fastboot shows MARVELC PVT SHIP S-OFF RL

I am looking to unlock from 'RL', and reroot, but after no small amount of wading through forums, I'm here asking you all for assistance. I'm new to messing with my phone, but feel like I'm about ready for an 'Ah HA!' breakthrough.
Initially, I had deleted all system/data through Recovery, and finally found an RUU that would run and reinstalled the stock ROM.
Rerooting has been a challenge. When I follow the instructions at htcdev, I fail to execute run get_identifier_token, with "command error"
Fastboot running on my desktop does recognize the device, but have not been able to flash anything.
When I boot into recovery, the phone loads the HTC spash, but lands on a screen with a red triangle and exclamation point.
PG76IMG.zip isn't recognized by FASTBOOT on the phone, regardless of the modelid or cid in the android-info.txt
I would appreciate any suggestions to get back to root.... hard to imagine that some people use their phone with out it.

It's because your bootloader doesn't support being unlocked.............Any bootloader that has *LOCKED*(or *RELOCKED*) written can be unlocked via HTCdev
Look over for the RUUs provided before the steps and see which one's for the CDMA WFS, run it and you will be able to unlock the phone

OK - I'm a total noob at this - but I'll start off by asking some obvious questions
are you able to do adb devices and see your device? if so, what does it say when you do adb devices?
For a guide to install recovery, i used the guide on phonearena - seemed the simplest and most straight forward. I can't post a link - I'm too much of a noob.

I had the same problem as i used a mac to, still never got around to installing it via fast boot but what i did is install the app "Flashify" on google play and then downloaded twrp 2.7.0.1 onto my phone then flashed a recovery through the app. it worked great but you should still get fast boot working incase your phone messes up in the future and you need to use adb commands or fast boot commands to flash a RUU or something like that.

You need ADB and Fastboot to be working.
I would assume you have them working since you used firewater. Reboot to hboot, then select fastboot. Does it change to say "fastboot USB"? What happens when you execute "Fastboot devices" from the computer?
Okay so, I had a problem of having no OS and had my htc m8 on soft brick for a while but i finally got that resolved by flashing a new rom on it. ( Here it is if you want to read: http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-m8/help/os-installed-transfer-files-t3018626)
Unfortunately, I wasn't getting wifi on it. I tried 2 other roms and still no dice. I read online that i needed to update my firmware to do that. To do that, I needed to relock my bootloader so I did and the firmware flashed successfully.
Now my hboot is 3.19 instead of 3.16 and my bootloader says RELOCKED.However, when i go into recovery mode, my phone shows a picture of the dead android. I can't get past the bootscreen either so my phone is stuck on bootloader mode.
I found this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2497712 to help me get my phone unlocked again cause the unlock code at htc dev wont work again.
However, when i write adb devices, no serial number shows up now. adb shell says no devices connected.
I tried pushing and flashing a new recovery and rom in cmd and it said it failed.
I'm really grasping at straws at this moment since I can't really do anything.
Are you sure you are updated? In the bootloader, what does it say for "os"?
And what roms are you trying to flash? 4.4.4 or Lollipop?
And to unlock bootloader, start over at HTC Dev. See what happens. Instead of trying old code.
You can't flash a recovery with a locked bootloader.
I'm pretty sure it updated because everything looks different. Bootloader's background is black instead of white now too. When I flashed the firmware, everything seemed to be okay as well. . .
my OS says 3.11.1700.5
and i tried it at dev and generated a code, but it gave me an error and didn't give me a file. I tried to use my old file but that didnt work.
Personally, in your situation now..... I'd flash the correct RUU for your device, then use Sunshine to s-off. Then you'll be bootloader unlocked also and can flash recovery, root and all that.
You'll need the same Android version RUU that matches your firmware now.
See this thread,

Like I said, recoveries wont flash cause its stuck on Relocked mode. I cant fix that because adb devices wont see my phone.
All the other commands on the All-in-One root kit gives me this:" 'C:\Users\Admin' is not an internal or external command, operable program or batch file " regardless of where i do it. I don't understand what I'm doing wrong here.
I tried to put the 0p6bimg.zip file but it wont copy on to my sd card cause of some error saying not responding or disconnected.
I tried flashing it instead but it said the file was too large
I tried the latest firmware but it said Failed! verification error.
I tried using the RUU to update and it stopped on the 1/7 process saying Error 155: Unknown Error.
I think what i need to do and how to fix it but I just need adb devices to find my phone.
If i can do that I can unlock my bootloader, install a recovery, install a rom and be home free but I can't do that until it detects my phone. I've tried everything now including reinstalling my drivers three times now.
Please help :'(
You don't need adb devices to see the device. You need to put the phone in the bootloader and type fastboot devices.
Open the command prompt inside the folder where also the fastboot.exe file is located.
Like Mr Hofs said...The bootloader gets unlocked in bootloader/fastboot mode.
Last I remember the code to get the token was "fastboot oem get_identifier_token" and "fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin and not "adb oem get_identifier_token" or "adb flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin ...

No, you guys. I already said this. I already used the htc dev the first time to get my phone unlocked. I had to relock it to flash a firmware. Now I can't unlock it again.The token isn't working. I already used the token once and its not working for the second time. I need adb devices to use adb shell. That way I can adb push revone and unlock my bootloader, but im not sure if that would work either.
Edit: I tried htc dev by generating a code 3 times. It generated different ones, the last one worked.
Ok something is still wrong.
I flashed cwm 6.0.4.8, did a full wipe, installed supersu and installed the android revolution rom. When I reboot, it says I am not rooted, root now? I pressed yes and it reboot.
The phone goes into htc bootscreen for 2 minutes, reboots again and then goes into recovery mode. What do I do now?

Try flashing the boot.img again.
Clear the Cache.
If it still doesn't work then it might be best to just flash the ROM again.
Is your bootloader still show GPE version no. ?
If yes, how do you expect to flash a Sense ROM on GPE partition ?

Hi,
I'm trying to use hasoon2000's AIO toolkit in order to root my HTC One M8 (T-Mobile). I am following the guide outlined in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2066390
I've flashed the recovery, all that I need to do now is click "Perm Root" to push supersu.zip onto my phone, and then use the recovery to install the zip. However, when I click perm root, i get the following message:
failed to copy 'su/supersu.zip' to '/sdcard/supersu.zip' permission denied
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
After I go to the recovery, I see supersu.zip there, and I flash it using the recovery, but I don't think it is a full and proper installation because when I enter supersu from my phone, it is telling me that "binaries" are not installed. I am assuming this is because of the denied permissions. USB debugging is definitely on. Any advice?

Does it also tell you to click a button to update the binaries? Do that.
Also, why are you using a toolkit? Rooting the M8 is super easy.
I always suggest to never use toolkits unless there is no other option to gain root. Usually for cheap third world devices like Micromax.
EDIT:
Here:
Go to this link, and download the "UPDATE SuperSU.zip" onto your phone.
Flash it in recovery.
Find it in your app drawer and open it.
Update the binaries.
You are now rooted.

If you are running Lollipop, the SuperSU version that comes with the toolkit is quite obsolete, and won't work anyway.
Just download the current (2.46) version SuperSU and flash it like xunholyx says.

Confirm in bootloader, that is says UNLOCKED.
What hboot number, and what version TWRP are you trying to flash?

What happens if you type the command: fastboot devices
The response should be the phone ID; which corresponds to your serial number, I believe, so do NOT post it.

attached a snapshot of the menu that apperas when I hit "Recovery" from the boot menu... if can help...
Why are you trying to flash in recovery mode? You need to be in fastboot mode to flash via fastboot.
Have you got the proper fast boot drivers?

Just today the camera is not working properly. It is impossible to take a picture because there is some problems with focus and the noise of its drive... 3 or 4 weeks to have it back!!!
thanks, news asap.
