[5.1 S-On] Is Root Possible? - Verizon HTC One (M9)

Hey guys,
I see quite a few topics about 5.0.1 being rootable.
Unfortunately I ended up upgrading to 5.1 without realizing it.
Are there any current ways to root 5.1 or downgrade to 5.0.1?
So it appears I actually have an M9. So mod can you remove this topic? pls thx bye

There was never a software root method for the Verizon m9.
Check out the Java card thread in the m9 general section to find someone near you who can root your phone.
I moved your thread here.

Guys, Sunshine now works. You can go to the root ninja's website and get root and s-off.

** Root achieved for 98.30.1 9.8.1Q-94-1 **

k1mu has created a USABLE root tool for the RAZR M, originally intended on the Samsung S4.
Low and behold it works on our latest firmware 98.30.1, 9.8.1Q-94-1.
There are many others that have confirmed that this works as well as me.
<MOD EDIT> Visit the original thread HERE
Credits go to k1mu.
Make sure the device is connected via USB to a computer and make sure USB debugging is enabled.
Simply unzip, and run the .bat file and follow the instructions.
Good luck!
I don't get it. Are you going to keep your attachment in sync with his? He has updated 16 times in a year.
Plus an update is due anytime for us in particular.

Do not take me wrong, I am the king of attachment whores, but I could not help pointing out a key issue here.
You did not even put a link to the Op!:

Edit If I came on & saw your op about this topic, I would not have created another. I would contribute to yours....
There is a thread for support & many examples of 'M user's success:

I agree. Without the detailed directions in the original post in the VZ S4 forum, important directions to make this work is lost.
For example, I'm going to be posting directions this weekend that will allow this to work on a number of devices without using adb.
I'm trying to make this better, run on more devices, make it faster, etc... I can't be managing snapshots all over the forums.
Yeah, I know, it's exiting to have root. Let's not complicate it unnecessarily.

Thanks RikRong for saying that. Noone has mentioned that so far cause everyones excited about root. Root aint much if you still have to use SafeStrap. I runnign what my M originally came with and im hoping the Kit Kat update doesnt re-lock it.

Because the droid maxx/ultra/mini got kit kat in mid December. If you go to their site and go to the update page we are next to get it considering all other high end or 'newer' phones have got it

I figured people would probably still ask about the BL. However, you can still do a lot of tweaking on the stock ROM if you are rooted.
Thank you mod for the edit! I haven't been on here since. I was in no way taking any credit for this.

[Q] Sorry, noob question! Can I root 5.0?

Morning Folk! I've just got the G3 SIM Free in the UK and allowed it to do all the updates it wanted (lots). It's now sitting at android 5.0. I'd like to remove mcafe from it but I've read I need root to do that - but from what I can see the tools on the forum don't seem to support 5.0, is this correct?
Cheers!

Short anwser: you can't.
Long anwser: you can put a pre-rooted rom of Lollipop. Look in the Dev section.
Cheers I'll just put up with it for now

Flash a KK rom, root it and flash a custom recovery and flash a custom rom. Thats it Takes about 20-30 minutes.

How can I root the Zenfone 2?

Hey guys, I have the 550ML (which for some reason is showing as the z00AD for XDA). Is it possible to root it? I haven't rooted a phone in awhile, and wanted to know if there is a universal lollipop root or do I have to wait for something down the line.

Also, you are one of the luck few to get it so early. People around the globe are still waiting, hold on for a little while and things will start popping up here.
I am waiting with my asus zenfone2 (ze551ml).... searching over n over... I wish devs will find a way for us... best of luck..

Find the pre-rooted image yourself
What if I root my phone and did not use any custom rom, will it still update the phone? like the system and UI. thank you

Flashing the pre-rooted rom isn't a custom rom...
I have my bootloader unlocked so this may affect things too but I just reflash the last pre-rooted rom then update over OTA. Never had a bootloop problem.
So saying it is generally advised to remove root/xposed and busybox, anything that alters the system image really, before doing an OTA update..

VZW HTC One M7, HBOOT 1.61 Droid 5.0.2, help!

Your stuck, as Sunshine does not work for Android 5.0.0
Search Google for someone with a Java Card.
Also your post is better suited in the General Section.
Good Luck.

Note at this time.
Verizon locks the bootloaders, so you can't use the HTC Dev website.
The M7 is over two years old. So I don't it is a priority now.

[Way too] Commonly asked questions

Commonly asked questions for the Note 4 N910A. I am seeing these same questions asked over and over and over and over and over again.
1) Is there root available?
There is NO permanent root available.
Temporary root is available ONLY if your phone hasn't updated past firmware OC4.
2) Can I install [this ROM] or [firmware from another Note 4 model]?
NO! We have a locked bootloader still. The only thing you can flash is firmware made for this phone by Samsung/ATT.
3) Will Kingroot or Klingo root work?
See #1. Kingroot is how you do the temp root mentioned in #1.
4) My OTA update won't install! HELP!
See my other thread here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3226166
4) I'm not on ATT or not in the US, how do I update to the latest firmware?
See my other thread here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3226166
5) Will this phone ever be rooted?
I don't know. Let me use my crystal ball to look into the future. Oh wait! NO ONE CAN TELL THE FUTURE!!!
6) What? This phone isn't rooted yet or has had the bootloader unlocked? It's been a year since this phone has been released!
GTFO... NOW! Run as fast as you can. We will be in hot pursuit with pitchforks and torches.
