Lost root??? - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi.....i unlocked bootloader on my international HTC one, rooted, installed TWRP recovery, and just flashed Elegencia 12.0. All went well, but I lost root. Don't really understand why? Can anyone explain to me so I can fix this? I did have CWM to begin with, which had the option to root when I was in recovery, I chose "yes" but decided to change to TWRP. Is it okay to root while running a custom ROM?

Just put a superuser zip on your sd card and install it from twrp reboot and you should be good

No. First you need to flash a stock rom if you're not already on one. Once you do that you need to flash the stock recovery. You do this the same way you flashed cwm but flash the stock recovery instead of cwm. You can also skip the backup step. After that you can use super oneclick to unroot the phone. At that point you will be good.

Yeah you're good then. Just double check that it removed the Superuser app so you know it worked.

Use root explorer...TWRP/backups...
If they are not there...I'm not sure but you may not have them
I know they are there, I can see them in both twrp under the install tab an in es. My question is why arent they showing under the restore tab of twrp..? I know they're there, in twrp backups, but, once again, they do not show "restore" in twrp where they should be showing...

Have u gone from 4.2.2 back to a 4.1 one Rom? I know on the note 2 flipping back and forth would screw it up like that.
Yes, went from stock 4.1.2 to 4.2.2.....

Root/sdcard/twrp should be the path so the twrp folder should be in sdcard. Is that where it shows it?

[CLOSED]Overwriting CWM with TWRP

So at present I have a HTC one on HTC_001 soffed hboot 1.54 using 'rumrunner'. I have CWM recovery and have made 4 nandroid backups, which I can see have backed up, by when I click on restore from backup I see the corresponding backups. But I would like to take these off of my phone to put on pc but for some reason I cannot view them through pc usb mass storage. Now I would like to try twrp to see if I can make a stock backup on there before I install rom's firmware etc. Can someone help let me know what's what. Thanks

I do believe CWM has usb connectivity in recovery mode, but don't quote me on that.

It looks like you don't have a custom recovery installed. Try installing one, you know how I presume.
Isnt that going back to rooting my phone? I wanna stay unrooted. If i unrooted my phone i should be able to update my phone normally from my About phone-Update software. It installs but resets back to the stock

The only thought is you may have wrong recovery. I would suggest to run ruu for ATT if you can or Soff and then do it
I ran the ruu for at&t already. Domt get me wrong the phone works great i just wanna update it

Then that's odd issue. Your other options will be to install custom recovery and sideload or manually install OTA file.

[Q] Instructions for upgrade

Hi,
I have the file "HTCOne-32GB-ATT-5.12.502.2-TWRP-stock-unrooted" to upgrade my M7 from 4.3 to 4.4.2.
Where can I get the exact instructions how to perform this upgrade?
Tnx
best way to do so is to go back to stock and manually upgrade then manually root via twrp (after flashing twrp as recovery of course) doing it through a pre packaged deal could be troublesome
I've already rooted the phone.
As much as I know, the file is OK.
What I'm looking for are the exact instructions (step by step) to perform the upgrade.
