[Q] Root/Re-Flash ONE M8

Hey guys.
I got an HTC ONE M8 today, I've had a lot of android phones before (majority being samsung) and one being a Nexus 4.
I know how to root on Samsung using Odin on Windows.
But I'm not sure and don't understand how to root my phone, also I don't know how to flash a Google Play edition ROM (or a ROM which looks like Stock).
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Oli

If it helps, my software number is 1.54.401.10.

I have Mac OS X though. Samsungs used to be so easy to root and flash firmware on. Why does every method seem so hard on this?

I have tried to install the ADB and fastboot on my computer and every time I go to type in "fastboot oem get_identifier_tag" it just says that the fastboot command can't be found?
Please can someone help. I cannot find any way to do this on a mac computer.

locate fastboot
Should tell you where fastboot is installed. I guess it's not in your path.

Have you followed the instructions for unlocking boot loader on HTC dev site I suggest using the all in one toolkit as mentioned

If I were you I'd stop right now before you do something you might regret until you have enough know how to carry on. Why do you want to flash another Rom so soon? Sense 6 is pretty good.
To use fastboot or adb run the command from the same folder as the binary .

The SunShine developers haven't released a mod for the HTC Desire 820. If you install the app, it tells you that the SunShine database does not recognise the phone's model. We need an alternative to this. Somebody please test Firewater S-OFF and post ASAP. Even I am stuck with perm-root but no busybox, no bloatware removal, nothing. The phone just restarts on account of the S-ON.

Htc Desire s off
Why s off in this device is impossible????

Is not impossible, the s-off with xtc2clip can't be done.

Hello....but with this method the phone switches from s on as s off or not ? I wish that the phone is s off..thank you..

No, it's only for removing bloatware.
For s_off you have to follow next process,

[q] busybox not installing on htc desire 820

I am rooted my htc desire 820 after that i installed lucky patcher after that i try to installed busybox which is necessary for lucky patcher, but busybox unable to installed, somebody give me solution for this.

Wait for S-OFF Tool
Since this is a relatively new model, developers haven't figured out how to bypass HTC's Security Kernel. When you boot into Fastboot, you will notice that it says 'S-ON' at the top of the screen. Given time, developers will release a tool allowing you to bypass HTC's security measures and you will achieve 'S-OFF'. I'm sorry to say, but until you have achieved S-OFF, you won't be able to make optimal use of your rooted device. Kindly wait and allow developers to work their magic.

Hey bro thanks for your reply, hope developer finds some good solution for new device to bypass security. One more problems I face that when ever I try to use freedom app or Busybox installation my mobile gets restart. Is this because s-on?

what about firewater s off process???/

Although I can understand your eagerness to make full use of root priviledges, try to understand the situation first, the freedom engine requires Busybox which is a custom binary that allows the user to make modifications to the kernel's command line which can prove to be destructive for your device if you do not know what you are doing. HTC's S-ON Security kernel prevents the user from making drastic modifications to the command line and rejects the installation of BusyBox. This is why your phone restarts constantly.
The Firewater S-OFF tool you speak of is a discontinued project that does not officially support HTC Models that have launched recently. Although you are free to try whether the tool works on your model, it is a safer option to wait for a developer to post a verified source, which will take some time. My advise is, if you are willing to risk turning your phone into an expensive paperweight, go ahead and try the firewater tool, otherwise, try to use the phone normally till someone posts a verified S-OFF tool. Its a new phone, spend some time with it, get to know the features of the stock rom, I'm sure it's worth waiting for a couple more weeks.

ok...... let me inform when the procedure available for htc to s-off......

Just boot into twrp and reflash it. If you can't get into twrp boot into the bootloader and load the 6.0 ruu
