Best way for root. - Verizon HTC One (M7)

O.K. Since I have just purchased my One. I was wondering what is the best and easiest way to gain access to root. I know there are a lot of people on he that have put a lot of work into ways to root,roms and other goodies. I just don't want to screw up my new phone.

There's only 2 ways. Send it to sonic for java card or use rumrunner. Either way is no worries about breaking it.

Your best option, and really your only one, outside of shipping your phone out to get java card S-OFF.
we now have a software S-OFF process.
It's called "rumrunner" link here
although I sent mine out to Sonic before this process was released, so I am yet to use it, but it looks very easy.
after this, ADB push a recovery, flash a ROM and you are rooted and ROMmed.

Super easy. Downloaded and s-off'd in 5 minute

It took me longer than 5 minutes for me but rumrunner worked for me yesterday morning and was super simple.

Do I get the HTC drivers from the htcdev website?

Here's a nice trick, download the HTC Sync for our phone, and it will install the drivers, then remove HTC Sync, but the drivers remain.

I don't know what's going on? I have rooted 3 other phones and not had these problems. When I start the rumrunner program it gets to the boot loader and says the device driver software was not installed successfully.

Anyone near Raleigh NC that wants some extra cash......lol. I know it's on my end I just don't know what's wrong. I downloaded HTC sync. Loaded everything then deleted sync. No clue.

did you download the correct rumrunner for your rom version? its really not that hard, just gotta follow the instructions on their site

Yes. I checked my phone before downloading. I have the ota update to 1.10.605.15
Sent from my HTC6500LVW using Tapatalk

Ok.... Whew. It says.... Unlocked and I have s-off. But I downloaded rom manager and tried to install cwm recovery and it says that I have to be rooted. I thought I was rooted. Any help please.

Tried root checker and it says I have no root. No busy box, no us, no superuser.......any ideas?
Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Download the cwm img or the twrp img and flash via fastboot
Code:
fastboot flash recovery (put the name of the recovery, or rename to recovery.img).img
Then download the su.zip and flash in recovery.

Download your recovery from the Verizon HTC One Original Development section.
Not from ROM Manager.
It needs to be for the m7vzw.
Flash it in fastboot.
Then flash superuser in recovery or flash an already rooted ROM.

Santod......what's going on. I remember you from the Thunderbolt. Good to see you on a forum again. Hope all is well. I can not figure out why in having these problems. Once I finished rumrunner. It said enjoy the rum, click enter to exit. But during the loading sequence it said device not connected and clearly it was. I tried repeating my steps but came up with the same results. I know I have an unlocked downloader and I have s-off.

From your fast boot/adb directory:

Grab either twrp or cwm from flyhalfs threads in original Vzw dev.
I'm doing well, good to see familiar folks.

Check your software version in hboot first. There are a lot of problems with newer models of the Inc2 and rooting.
How do I even get into hboot? The normal ways didn't seem to work for me.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2
Turn off the phone and hold volume down and power at the same time. If that does not work pull the battery out for a few seconds and put it back in and try again. When I first got mine I had to pull the battery at first before I could get into it.
im trying to do this to, so not hijacking the thread..
im at hboot .98 and have tried to download the kit in the downgrade thread, but it resets the connection at the end and never finishes.
ive read about htcdev tool to unlock bootloader, but there is no straight up guide besides the attn1 thread which is useless with that vwhk kit.

If it's software 6, it would be better if you used HTC dev unlock because downgrading software 6 is pretty difficult unless you're familiar with ADB shell.
If it's software 5, then using the downgrade tutorial would suffice and then revolutionary process, etc.
Sent from my vivow using XDA
It's possible to root and s-off with software 6, but it's complicated and can cause bugs and instability. There's really nothing you'd want to do that you can't with just using htcdev unlock, the downside is it voids your warranty.

Thata why I stated that you shouldn't try to S-Off and downgrade software 6 unless you are knowledgeable with ADB shell. This is because the entire process requires ADB shell usage.

Sure you can do it without a computer as long as you use 4ext for your recovery. Since you have s- off you just need a recovery to flash and Su for root. Use the app to get the free version of the recovery. The app will flash the .IMG file. Then once you have your recovery
Just download su and flash in recovery. Here is a drop box link to the su zip file to flash.
http://db.tt/GzpXFmUz
Here is the recovery updater app
http://db.tt/2sN1gD5h
Or rom manager app will also install recovery i believe and you can also use that to flash su for root.

Is there any hope??? (soft brick)

ok... so my aunt brought me her phone that she said she bricked... first thing first, its just a soft brick. i can turn the device on normally ( in which it just stays at the htc bootsplash.. i can also boot the phone into bootloader.. i cant go into recovery. when i select restart bootloader in fastboot it freezes the phone up... i have came to a conclusion that she wiped her recovery out completely. heres the problem where i need help..
1. the phone is ****locked**** , and when i try to use the htc dev. to unlock bootloader it will not let me select "yes" to unlock bootloader.
2. s-on
3. usb debugging is disabled im assuming...
4. hboot = 0.98.0000
5. radio: 1.09.01.1111
is there any hope for this phone???
Have you tried fast boot flash a recovery or using an ruu
when i try to flash recovery via flash boot it gives me an error.. htc cant sign the file properly..!!!??? all the ruu methods ive seen require usb debugging to be enabled ive tried them anyways with no luck...
Use the downgrade method in the development section.
Sent from my KangBang'd out vivow
doesnt the downgrade method require you to have usb debugging enabled??? my phone will not boot...

Google search "vivow signed ruu" there are hundreds of posts there with downloads. A signed ruu is an ruu just as it comes from htc. Because it is signed you can flash it through bootloader with s-on.
You will need a newer or equivalent version to the one on the phone or it won't flash.
You will just need to find one with a good download now.
Sent from my ICS Dinc2
Hmmm
Like has been said the RUU posted by CondemnedSoul should work. Just make sure its named PG32IMG. Dont add .zip or anything as you may not be able to see extensions if you dont have then enabled. Once its named PG32IMG and you put it on your SD card by itself not in a folder.
Once you do this pull the battery for a second and put it back. Now Volume down and power to boot bootloader. Give it a sec and see if it will load the image. If it does load it will give you the option to install by pressing volume up. It should start to install and should fix the problem. I have used the file before on my older Inc 2 so I know it works. Hope you get it sorted out.
So I get the ruu to read finally and it freezes on this screen...

What did the previous owner flash? (run?) Are you able to select and boot into Recovery from the Bootloader? If so, boot into recovery and Factory Reset or re-flash your ROM.

Try reflashing TWRP recovery in fastboot and see if you can then boot into recovery. Or you can try to reflash RUU or even just the boot.img. I am not a super expert on this, so hopefully someone will chime in.

Unfortunately, might be. Odd that it was working fine, what would possess someone to try and flash the RUU? Anyway, if you tried flashing recovery, did you try and flash the system.img, boot.img and recovery_signed.img into their respective slots?
You should be able to find the files from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2437436
You will just need to unzip and extract those files, then flash them in fastboot to their respective partitions.
Other then that, I would say your bricked unless, like what tylerlawhon said, you can see if you can send it to sonic to s-off again.
You could maybe also try reading through this if the previous didn't work, I know it says must be s-off and unlocked, but possibly worth a read

Rum runner was saying "fatal : please download updated package" but I realized 1) I wasn't using HTC cord that came with phone 2) I didn't have antivirus turned off. I only had firewall turned off (apparently you need both) 3) I was running Soju.exe off of my desktop which was a no go so I extracted rum runner to a folder on my desktop and ran as administrator then I was all set. After I flashed twrp through adb then acquired root and etc etc

S-Off and other vernacular

Howdy, new HTC One M8 owner here. Coming from Galaxy S4.
There is a lot information here pretty overwhelming. I'm trying to get my bearings. I have unlocked my BL and have not yet installed a custom recovery or root yet. I also have not taken any updates.
Is there a general consensus on which recovery is most compatible with our device?
What is S-Off? I mean I have the jist secure off, but what does this allow, and how do I achieve S-Off?
How do I verify I'm SIM unlocked and if not procedure to achieve this?
Finally with all of the development is there a thread that runs through the ROMs so I can choose one that best fits my need?

I factory reset still my data turns off and on when hot spot is activated. I have done nothing but installed TWRP and S Off. This is ridiculous.
Any other ideas?
