I have tried multiple times to root my htc one. With diffrent ways and toolkits, everytime i got stuck. With rootchecker i've seen that my device still is unrooted. I have installed TWRP recovery and flashed Superuser. I also succesfully installed a custom kernel. But the device still is unrooted and i cant use superuser.
I thought custom kernels were only possible on rooted devices..
Does anyone know how what the problem is and how to gain root acces?

The Toolkits are all very old and outdated
you need TWRP 2.6.3.3 or newer
you need SuperSU 2.02
flash those 2 and you'll be fine.

im useing ota 2.3.4 and ive tried everything to root the nexus one universal,z4,gingerbreak i have the bootloader unlocked but it will not root however gingerbreak did install su i thought my G2X was a trip this thing is giveing me more grey hair somew one have a solution
I had this problem and just managed to figure it out today (through the power of google). Superboot, oneclick and gingerbreak all don't work for 2.3.4 as of right now, so you have to use the PASSIMG method to flash an older version and root from there.
I found a good guide, but given that I've been a lurker for the past couple years as opposed to a regular poster, I can't link it. In lieu of a link, I suggest a search query such as "root 2.3.4 nd1razor"
Your bootloader is unlocked. No need for all that crap. Put the su zip on your sd card. Flash custom recovery via fastboot. Boot directly into the new recovery. And flash the su.zip from the recovery. You're rooted. The end.
you just need to flash custom recovery via fast boot or rom manager.then you can flash custom roms (which mostly have root along with tweaks) via recovery

I also unlocked the bootloader!
I put this ROM:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1084726
But I still do not have root permissions ... Why?
You have them, but probably don't know how to use them. How do you check for them?
How did you put the ROM? Did you flash custom recovery?
Yes, i flash recovery-RA-passion-v2.2.1.img
Now my rom is: MIUI-1.9.16
The strange thing is that I managed to install the rom and recovery without having root permissions
Not strange. You don't need root. You have unlocked bootloader......

Thanks, you're very kind!
How do for get root permissions ?
The ROM includes them. When you're inside the ROM, you have root.
You are right !!!!! I just had to change the parameters with superuser
thanks
P.S.: Sorry for my ignorance
Hey guys, I've recently received my HTC international. It came with 4.2 but I updated it to 4.3. I've unlocked the bootloader and do have TWRP as recovery. Now I'm trying to root my phone and also s-ff but I run into a problem because my hboot is version 1.55.
I've tried various of different methods to root my One, they all complete successfully, get a shortcut for supersu still not rooted.
Can anyone help rooting One with hboot 1.55?
You only have to flash this...
Just tried. I am getting the same message I did before in SuperSU... "There is no SU binary installed, and SuperSU cannot install it. This is a problem!! If you just upgraded to Android 4.3, you need to manually re-root - consult the relevant forums for your device."
Just to clarify, this device was not rooted before 4.3. It's a new device. I took it out the box, plugged it into my pc, UPDATED to 4.3 (which updated hboot to 1.55) and then I started looking for ways to root. Unlocking the bootloader worked perfectly but cannot root :/

Are you running stock rom?
Yes. I am running the official 4.3 update. Maybe I should have mentioned this before, my aim is to get the Google Play edition, 4.4 on this device. As far as I know, I need to be rooted, s-ff for this.
Ain't there another way of doing this? Eg, flashing Android Revolution 40.0? what would happen if I tried flashing this on non rooted device? is there a way it would root the device?
I was able to root my device using openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.0-m7 as recovery. SuperSU 1.80

Install Android Revolution HD 31.6 then use rumrunner to s-off. That's what worked for me.
Hey guys,
I've just received my replacement phone and I'm trying to route it.
It came with 4.3 already installed.
I've unlocked the bootloader and installed CWM but want to s-off so I'm trying to root my stock (Three UK branding) ROM.
I've trying flashing superuser an superSU from recovery (CWM and TWRP) and they flash successfully and install onto my phone but don't actually give me root access!?
It also won't let me update the binaries in SuperSU
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
Edit - I'd somehow managed to download an outdated version on SuperSU. It's working now. Silly me.
Hello all,
Im totally confused as to how to go about rooting my device c6902. Ive owned a couple of android devices and Ive rooted them all, however....with this device and there seem to be different ways people have rooted from reading the threads and im totally confused, So far I have unlocked the bootloader, and upgraded the device OTA to lollipop .242 (before the bootloader was unlocked), I dont intend installing any custom firmware, just want root so I can use TB and maybe delete a few bloatwares with root explorer and use xposed.
Im confused as to whether:
1. I have to downgrade firmware to kitkat, just to get root, then upgrade back to official firmware?
2. Ive been under the impression that a custom recovery and supersu, is enough to get root. It doesnt work that way on this device?
3. I saw some oneclick root programs that worked on the z1 compact would any work here
Just trying to know more about the phone and understand, so any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Using the guide on the link I just posted, you are not required to unlock the bootloader, unlocking the bootloader without backing up the TA partition can cause problems with your phone.
You need to downgrade to KitKat 4.4.4 with kernel 108, then root it with easyroot install supersu and rootchecker to make sure your phone is rooted, the use NUTs recovery to create a recovery partition, after that search XDA forums for a pre-rooted lollipop flashable zip and install that, and voila you should be on lollipop with root and recovery.
I am not sure about one-click root programs.

Thanks for your help.
I already unlocked the bootloader though. Do I need to downgrade the whole kitkat rom or flash just the kernel? thanks
Figured out. Thanks
Hello guys. I have problem rooting my phone.
I can install TWRP but root doesn't work. I tried rooting with all methods and installing rooted ROMs. Right now I am on pixel experience ROM and it won't install rooted. BL is unlocked and I tried all methods to root. I have TWRP 3.4.0.0.
Any idea?

It is possible that it is rooted but Magisk Manager might not be showing up, I suggest downloading Magisk Manager APK and see what the manager says.
