[Q] Help w/ Root Htc One (m7)

Hello, this is my first time on XDA so if I make any mistakes please forgive me .
I have unlocked the bootloader on my Sprint HTC One m7, and I can't find any guides on how to root my phone with its current stock Andriod version. It has version 4.4.2 with HTC version 6.0. Can anyone point me towards a good guide?
Thanks!

Welcome to xda!
Since your bootloader is already unlocked, then all you need to do is to flash a custom recovery like TWRP.
With the recovery.img in the same folder where you have adb and fastboot and your phone booted in bootloader/fastboot usb mode, open a command prompt and type:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery name_of_recovery.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
then reboot in recovery mode by selecting "recovery" in the bootloader. Once booted in TWRP recovery, just select to reboot to system and the recovery will detect that your phone isn't rooted and will ask if you want to root it. Select "yes". Then once rebooted in the OS, you should have supersu in your app drawer.
Don't forget sprint variant of the One isn't the same phone as the international gsm variant so always flash files (Custom recovery/ custom roms/ Custom kernel) compatible for sprint (M7WLS sometime called M7SPR)

That's all? Also, using this procedure, if I update will my root be broken or Will I still have root? Also if it brakes my root what will happenen to the stuff that I gave root permission too? And stuff like that? Thanks for all the help!

You'll maybe not be able to update. When you unlock the bootloader, /data/preload and its content is wiped (some of HTC preloaded apps, weather animations etc). These apps are sometime updated during an ota update and if they are missing, like after unlocking the bootloader. the ota installation will fail. You also need to flash your stock recovery back before an ota update.

if you are only going to root and not flashing rom then use any version you want, the latest should be fine. If you want to flash a custom rom, use the recovery mentioned in the rom OP.

[Q] How badly is my device ****ed up?

Ok, so here's the deal. I flashed RETAILDSDSALL_XT1068_4.4.4_KXB21.85-23_cid7_CFC.xml on my 2014 EU Moto G XT1068 and now ADB is unauthorized on my PC when I try to boot it up but the device isn't even detected in Fastboot, so I can't flash jack ****, but I can access the stock recovery and ADB Sideload from there.
The phone is stuck in a boot loop - it just sticks to the WARNING - BOOTLOADER UNLOCKED screen.
What do I do? Any help is greatly appreciated.

if you came down from 5.0.2 to 4.4.4 without a full factory reset / wipe it hangs..... fixable
this zip in my signature has everything you need
download the 4.4.4 easy installer in my signature (choose correct .23 version -dsdsall) has instructions, all drivers , adb files and firmware and a auto restore script - that should fix

yes 5.02 easy will install as well , but then if you want to go back to 4.4.4 you will need a unlocked boot loader

[Q] Recovery Image

Has anyone been able to recover the recovery image for the Droid Turbo? In my dreams, i supposed the nexus 6 recovery twrp would work once rooted. I was wrong, and now no longer have a recovery.

@wrecklesswun, here you go. --> https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B15sKU9JEz4CbHRzVVZvRFdRUGM/view?usp=sharing
You can restore it by putting the file on the root of your sd card and using a root shell. And entering.
Code:
dd if=/sdcard/recoveryfilestock.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p36
OR
If youre lazy as long as you have adb installed you can download this extract it and click RunMe. It will restore stock recovery and then reboot you into recovery.

You can build TWRP for the Turbo and flash it all day. Wouldn't work though as it fails the signature checks from the boot loader. You need an unlocked boot loader for a custom recovery to work.

That's what I thought and was just confused why someone else said we could flash. *Shrug* is use my Turbo as a daily driver so I can't poke at it any like I did the DNA when we got that unlocked.

@aviwdoowks, yes exactly. He needed to restore the stock recovery on his turbo. Even with WP on as long as you're root you can dd an image to any partition other than system. I simply packaged shell, su request and dd commands into an executable bat file that flashed stock recovery.

You can backup apps+appdata using ASUS Backup app.
You don't need to do wipe userdata. Internal memory will be unaffected. I have flashed all pre rooted ROMs from 1.13 to 1.17 without deleting userdata or factory reset. The only annoying thing is that your first boot will show up "Android is upgrading " which will take around 40mins to reach homescreen. Just wipe cache.

System + user apps with data
I am assuming you have stock Rom installed.
If yes, you don't even need to backup anything, if no you will have to backup atleast app data (you will understand when you use the backup app) and restore using the same app after flashing pre rooted firmware.
If I had wiped from recovery, I would lose data, which I don't want as I am too lazy to set up my phone again and again. Also restoring from Backup app takes time. I know I can avoid the "android is upgrading" but I don't want to spend time on frequent restoring, though I always keep a backup of mini militia to save game data since it bothers me:silly:

can I still update to marshmallow if I root my device now?

It's almost useless to root without unlocking bootloader. If you can't flash custom ROMs then it's of no use. I would be happy if you can find a way to unlock bootloader unofficially coz official unlock app does not work

Not really. Root is still very useful for some of us. Some people tend to prefer stock roms and will even upload heavily customized versions of stock firmware. Hell, I've even seen devices with the most hacked together root solution that was hard earned development-wise because it evolved painfully slow as it all revolved around a partial root solution that prevented full on custom or bone stock roms like CM or AOSP.
My point is, if you can't find root useful without a custom rom, then you're doing it wrong.
What do you even do with root?

You can root if you have unlocked bootloader but converse is not always true. We are going to get updates for MM. Its impractical to spend time on patching every official firmware to gain root access. Instead, everyone should focus on unlocking bootloader. The best use of rooting this device would be if we can unlock bootloader with root access. I have been trying to achieve it since the day I bought this phone. Most users gave up but I won't! I quote @LuK1337, "ROOT means nothing unless we can unlock bootloader"

Do you have a pre-rooted fille for the latest Android 6.0.1 firmware???
Thanks!

Our devices don't have a recovery partition to flash to.
Read the install instructions correctly:
https://twrp.me/motorola/motorolamotox4.html
You should use "fastboot boot twrp-3.2.1-0-payton.img" instead.
Then, follow along:
This will temporarily boot TWRP on your device. If you are using a lockscreen pin/pattern/password and do not get prompted to enter your password, reboot to the bootloader and try again. Go to install and browse to the zip and install the zip. The zip will install TWRP to both boot slots. Installing TWRP at this time will remove root if you are currently rooted.

I think the right command is this:
fastboot flash boot [file name].img

No,
If you accidently flash TWRP to your device using fastboot instead of temporarily booting the image, you will need to download the latest firmware for your device and reflash the boot image.

I could be wrong but it seems like you are trying to flash TWRP to the recovery partition and there's no such thing on this phone. You have to temporarily boot TWRP and the keep following the instructions.

Is anybody able to backup / restore the phone with android one on encrypted file system??, im using the official twrp, but restoring backups just cause bootloops

is it necessary to unlock the bootloader before?

If you're asking if the bootloader needs to be unlocked to install magisk, absolutely!

Sorry for the dumb question but how do you unlock the bootloader on the Fi Android one Version?

Potential fix

If you are still haven't fixed this yet the issue is you need to fastboot boot the boot twrp image and then flash the flash image inside twrp. The guide on TWRP official will give you a guide on how to do this, the files required are also there.
