I've never seen a purely stock (rooted) ROM with hotspot working. Usually, the custom ROM developer activates it before building his ROM. I know there are some apps in the Play Store that people have had luck with in the past.

I can't seem to get hotspot mode to start. How can I do this??

As coal686 mentioned in the prior post you WILL NOT see the hotspot unlocked on a stock rom. You will need to load one of the many roms where the developer has unlocked it.

Isn't there a way for me to unlock it myself if someone can help me?? Isn't the reason were here to figure it out? How would a dev be able to unlock it and y couldn't I? Sorry, not trying to be smartass or bothersome, but just curious.

No problem as I had the same question in the past. From my understanding, it has to be unlocked in the developer's "kitchen" before the ROM is compiled. It can't be unlocked in a compiled ROM (unless things have changed since I asked). So, the only way for you to do it would be to build your own ROM. I've never done it before, but there are tutorials on how to do it with Android Kitchen. It would be a big project for you, but I've heard it's very fulfilling.

update
i unlocked my boot loader and used this method and im able to use titanium backup and superuser apps hope this helps
http://androidcommunity.com/htc-amaze-4g-gets-permanent-one-click-root-20111020/
Yes just picked mine up today. Would love to know how to root this device also.
With this phone being released on AT&T on November 6th there will most certainly be a tremendous increase in the desire for root and dev involvement. It won't be long before this phone has it's own forum and a whole lot of XDA love. I'm one of the many that has been waiting for this phone to come out since it was leaked back in May and I can hardly wait to get my hands on one!
Adding support to this thread. Would love to get root for my Raider! Will also help out this process in anyway I can.

Does the raider/vivid have the ability to do HDMI out?
it has a mhl port which is physically identical to a micro usb, it does do hdmi out but you need an adapter
google mhl to hdmi and it will all come up
Do we know if the boot loader is locked or unlocked?
Add your vote here to get an HTC Holiday/Raider/Vivid forum added.
Anyone try the regular rooting methods

I'm not able to post links, but if you google htc bootloader and go to htcdev.com it will all be there, I believe that's what he's referring to.

Doesn't matter, just get the fastboot code and it will generate a working unlock code.

U will get the official Sense update by end January. BTW official CM11 nightlies are available
Or you can unlock,flash custom recovery and use a sense based 4.4 custom rom.
The developer edition is Sense, Google Play edition is AOSP(mostly)

i forgot to ask above but what actually is the benefits of the developer addition?
Personally i dont see any benefits. It gets updates a little bit sooner but nothing big. If you get an actual developer edition device though you get 64gb of storage and unlocked bootloader

[Q] No Profile Update/PRL Update error 1233

Has anyone else been receiving an error when updating their profile with the new OTA update? Additionally is anyone receiving error 1233 when trying to update their PRL? If so has anyone found a solution? I found a few people complaining about the issue on various threads here and around the internet but with no solution. This seems to be causing issue with both rooted and non rooted phones.
In my case I am S-OFF rooted. Took the update with stock recovery.
I figured it might be worth while to have this in one thread.
In my case these two functions are useful as I am in a poor coverage area and am now constantly receiving the "no data connection" error. That said these issues still persist in well covered areas.
I'm getting the same thing after taking the update..... Thought it was only me.... Was reading online n people who were having this issue said it usually corrects itself

Currently: Latest Viperone rom, 3.05.651.5 Full Firmware w/o hboot, boot, recovery (fastboot flashable) (released today), s-off and with chas123's epst only zip mod

Same Problem
Ever since the new update, 3.05.651.5, I get error code 1233 when trying to update PRL and also can't update my Profile. I called HTC they said it was a Sprint error code so I called Sprint and they re-provisioned my phone. This was unsuccessful and told me to wait a day or so. There are quite a few people having the same issue and the latest word on the Sprint Forums is that HTC is aware of the problem and working on it. My HTC ONE is "stock". Not rooted.

Yes it will wipe the phone.
Running the RUU seems to fix this issue for everyone thus far. It must be some issue with residual files left behind from the older version when taking the OTA.

If by download another copy you mean the updates provided in other threads you could try it but it did not work for me. The RUU was the only solution.

Looking for ROM advice.

There are no roms fr the One which have no Wifi
There are maany roms based on stock Sense 5.5 which offer a lot more custimizations, like RAM usage in the mutitasking menu, changing the grid size in the app drawer, nd MILLIONS of other mods, than the default stock rom. ARHD, InsertCoin, MaximusHD, ViperOne are a few roms which i can remember. I wud recommend any of these Sense roms instead of pure stock

Certain variants of the One like the Verizon version cant b unlocked thru HTCDev. The Verizon One needs to b unlocked with Rumrunner. There are special tools required fr certain variants.

Root/recovery

Hey guys just received brand new HTC one out of the box. Just wondering quickest method of root right now and what people are using for their recoveries. Yes I have researched but I see a lot of things out there. I'm sure one of your guys response would be quicker. If you could post links for root and a good recovery that would be appreciated. I'm on 4.2.2 thanks in advance.

I assume you have the international unlocked One, not any of the U.S. carrier branded Ones.
1) Go to htcdev.com, create an account. Choose the option to unlock the bootloader. You need the fastboot drivers. Easy to find
2) Once you're bootloader unlocked, flash TWRP recovery from this link:
http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/m7
3) Install SuperSU once u have TWRP(the app will be installed automatically). Run the app
4) You're rooted. Very naize
P.S. I would advise u to S-OFF your phone after rooting it, coz certain ROMs aint compatible with S-ON, ur default. So, before installing the 4.4.2 OTA, flash ARHD 31.6, run the rumrunner tool

Verizon wireless u.s.a and I'm on 4.2.2 and I waited to update to kitkat because I didn't know if there was an exploit for root and stuff like that. Can my bootloader still be unlocked? Keep in mind I'm 100% stock on 4.2.2 I just kind of need to be steered in the right direction on what to do next seeing as though there is an overwhelming amount of mods out for this phone.

Yeah, u need to use rumrunner tool, not the HTC dev unlock.
http://rumrunner.us/downloads-2/
Download for Verizon, READ THE INSTRUCTIONS AND PRE-REQUISITES CAREFULLY
And, btw, this is not the thread for the Verizon One. Hence, there are no ROMs which support the Verizon variant. Flashing a ROM from the development thread for HTC One WILL BRICK UR PHONE. Make sure u flash ROMs/MODs for the Verizon One from:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-htc-one
FYI, if u want the most mods/roms, u should have bought the unlocked One
