Finally my Unlocked HTC 10 nougat, unlocked bootloader and rooted!

It seems that the Nougat and Marshmallow are the same procedures. The reason why I have made this post is, why didn't anyone here say that it is no different than the Marshmallow procedure?!
So far, everything is working without any complain!
Network is fine. Did I forget something that I should check if it's working or not?

Why should it be mentioned it isn't changed. It's actually only important when things DO change ! No news......no change. Simple as that. And if you do a xda search there will very likely be a post which will mention there are no changes regarding unlocking the bootloader, even sunshine to S-Off the device is still working the same.
Don't expect to be spoonfed but do some good old fashioned research. Checking the HTC dev site and the procedures there to unlock the bootloader hasn't changed either. Even their whole website layout hasn't changed.
But if something hasn't changed in the future we will put a reminder up to tell you
:highfive:

The same as MM. Unlock the bootloader, flash TWRP and flash Superuser.zip (root access)

Thanks could you provide link to correct superuser and flash via twrp pls?
I tried one file and got stuck in bootloop, fortunately I had backup so restored that.

New 10 Owner - what to do first?

Just got a 10 Factory Unlocked. I do need to root for Xprivacy and AdAway, etc. and of course, to make a nandroid. I suppose I could use ADB for such a thing, but TWRP surely does make life easier.
Since this is the first phone I've ever had that was already unlocked, I'm not quite sure where to start with rooting. I'm a little concerned because I'm seeing posts discussing how the radio might go wonky. Not ready to flash a custom ROM yet, I just want to dip my toe in the water for now.
I'd be grateful if someone could point the way.
BTW, the faceplate on my 10 is white, I was expecting black based on all the photos I've seen. Is this because I got the Factory Unlocked edition?
Thanks in advance!

is it on nougat or still marshmallow? i think nougat right? Xposed won't work on nougat anyway and you don't need to worry about the radio. if it's unlocked already and want to just root and you need to pass safetynet, get magisk v12. first you need to flash twrp and then flash the magisk zip to get root and be able to pass safetynet, be sure to not flash anything which modifies directly the system, otherwise no stock OTA and some apps won't work even if you use magisk hide

Haven't even turned the phone on yet - letting her charge to 100% before I do anything. I'm confused - why would I need to unlock the bootloader if I already have an unlocked phone? Or by 'Factory Unlocked' do they mean SIM unlocked, versus bootloader unlocked?

Not familiar with 'safetynet', and yes - I do need Xposed therefore it will modify the /system partition so far as I understand.
In any event, it sounds like the starting point is TWRP for anything to do with root, correct?

yes you need twrp, without it no root... the thing is there is no Xposed for nougat and I think your phone came with android 7/ nougat right? if yes, forget Xposed. but you can use apps like adaway with magisk too.
So that'S why you should search for the Magisk thread and read everything about it, before you proceed

No, the HTC 10 shipped with MM. I guess I'll have to fire her up and see where I'm at.
So, assuming that I'm on MM, then it's just TWRP, flash SuperSU from recovery, install Xposed and I'm off and running - nothing extra, correct?
How would I make a Nandroid of the current factory ROM (all partitions - not file based) using ADB just in case?

yea if MM then it's that easy.
full stock nandroid can be done in twrp, there you can backup system, data, boot and recovery
also the system image, but don't know if you need that, but you can try to backup it too, be sure to have enough space

I got my unit one year ago, now I want root, I got nougat us unlocked and I want stock ROM, how can I do?

flash magisk v12 then you have root and also can use android pay and other apps which needs passed safetynet
if you don't mind safetynet, you can also use systemless supersu

To the OP, surely factory unlocked indicates unlocked to all networks rather than bootloader unlocked ? Check this first to save some hassle. If the bootloader isn't unlocked yet, you could consider sunshine s off , it will cost you but on mm firmware you can s off and stay locked which can be an advantage. Worth checking bootloader status first though

What exactly do you need xposed for? It won't work once you updated to Nougat. And Nougat is much better tan Marshmallow at least as far as I'm concerned. All I need I've been able to find on custom ROMs and or by additional root Apps.

Probably worth updating via ota after sunshine to nougat, not before. You can stay locked and s off then. After ota you can root as usual

Can't go Nougat until Xposed is up and running.
So far:
Unlocked bootloader and went S-off via Sunshine
Installed TWRP
Made the error of allowing modification before taking a backup - not sure if I'm hosed.
Flashed SuperSU SR3 following Chainfire's instructions to send command via ADB
Flashed Xposed
Next: TiBu and restoring apps.

You won't ( probably ) be able to do further ota in the future with your modified backup as you're probably aware. But don't worry too much, it's likely the firmware you're after will be available elsewhere

No big deal. I'm not ready for Nougat until Xposed is running. However, HTC has an RUU available already, so we're good to go.

And of course, if I get bored, there are any number of custom ROMs available. I was running Maximus on my M9, I'd probably go that route again.

Well root yes. But if you delete the bootloader you will not be able to "load" anything to "boot"
In other words device will be just a brick

Well original state , Android has always had a bootloader. You cannot delete it.
Maybe you just want to unroot and relock bootloader?
This is possible. And answered in the thread. Do a search.

Couple of warnings first. If you are new to Android and rooting, you might not know, lot of times problems(bootloops) happen when you do not do it correctly.
If phone is not on full stock unrooted system then locking bootloader will cause phone to "brick".
Do you have reason to need it locked again?
Usually to unroot all you need to do is flash the stock boot.img if you are on nougat or stock Ramdisk if you are on Oreo.
Magisk manager has an unroot option that will work only if you installed root from twrp.

You can do this if you want. Most people just flash magisk in twrp to root. Because of the a/b partitions it's a bit more involved than it used to be. You'll have to flash magisk after booting

Yes, it will stop you from installing the standard OTA's. However, you can either sideload the OTA, or flash the OTA zip in twrp, or, fastboot the factory image to update the monthly releases. No matter which way you update, you'll still have to reinstall magisk again to regain root as Edmontonchef stated :good:

Theres a thread about this, there isn't a currently known fix either.
