[Q] Htc One Root help!

Just tried rooting the phone for the first time. Not too familiar with rooting. Only done a few phones before.
Unlocked boot loader on dev site. Installed TWRP just fine. Installing root package went fine, but I was unable to install busybox. It would either fail to install, or crash the phone and reboot. I found a root + busybox zip, flashed that, and then SuperSU said I wasn't rooted at all! Tried flashing the old SuperSU root package again, but I'm still not rooted anymore. Can someone give me a quick fix for this please?
Thanks.

Is there anyone that can give me some advice? It would be MUCH appreciated!

hi friend ..
i'm also new about rooting hTC (1st time).i'd like to help, but not good enough on explanation ..i root my hTC One on day 2nd bought it.Might some help from youtube and xda topics about unlock bootloader, s-off & rooting.
after u done unlock bootloader, just download twrp zip or cwm zip..extract it copy twrp file (img) on fastboot folder (on pc drive with fastboot files for unlock bootloader process).
right click img file to open as cmd.Then type "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" then press enter..if u see word just like okay u can go back to bootloader mode, select recovery if u see word on top of screen while htc booting mode that's mean u already done flashing recovery.wait just 2 second, twrp should appear..u should download superSU or super user early put on ur sd then u flash it use twrp..check ur root status use root checker or titanium backup.lastly u tap on superSU or super user icon to update binary (for this method i'm not sure u need to update or not) might somebody got any best answer..
sorry for bad english & too simple methods.

I did, but when I opened it, it says I wasn't rooted as if I just installed it from the play store without a root.

[Q] Root checker says no root access

youtube. com/watch?v=rRkAHw_GmIs (sorry won't let me post the link)
I used this website to root my HTC One, and tried to verify my root access
Could someone tell me what I (the video) did was wrong?
The only different thing I did other than what was shown on the video was using 2.6.3.0 twrp recovery instead of 2.5.0.0 and that was because I was unable to use the touchscreen.
Note: I am not running Kitkat

If you have never been rooted before just ut towelroot and bruteforce the root. Reboot and you're done. Install supersu from playsotre enjoy!

Supersu installation failure on S6 Edge

I'm trying to install supersu (latest) on my phone and the boot image patching fails.
- Patching sepolicy
--- Failure, aborted
I'm running model sm-g925f, sadly can't recall the rom I installed.
I'm fairly sure I had this device rooted to get the custom rom in, but as some point the supersu upgrade process started failing like this.
Any ideas on how to get root back ?

If you have twrp, you should be able to flash a SuperSU zip file to gain root.

When you say the latest...are you talking 2.8 or higher? You might try using v2.79, it may work for you.

More information is needed for this failure when installing the v2.82 Test 1 in TWRP.
After attempting this again (after the failure happens), go back to the main TWRP screen, select Advanced, then copy Log and swipe to copy the log.
Then reboot and provide that log with your information to the following Official SuperSU thread:

I've tested a number of versions. All fail patching selinux policy.
Additionally My build number is NRD90M.G925FXXU5EQDF which according to galaxys6edgeupdate dot com is a Nugat update on 30 April. It removes root.
I'm pretty well versed in flashing and rooting been doing it since htc magic. This is the first time I'm having an issue rooting my device.

2021_VZW_NOTE4_Tool Too Root+Unlock Bootloaders+Upgrade Or Downgrade_Bootloaders_Works On KK/LL/MM Plus Roms For All 3 Firmwares

This Process Will Root Phone Unlock Your VZW EMMC 15 Chipset Bootloader Install TWRP Recovery And Install PreRooted Firmware Of Your Choice!.​
I posted this because the current unlock methods are not easy to do. This should make process easier
If you already have unlocked bootloader and want to change bootloader versions then goto post 2
Downloads
EMMC_15_VZW_NOTE4_BOOTLOADER_UNLOCK_2021.7z
Instructions
1, You need working adb on your computer. The latest samsung drivers installed. A Sdcard inserted in the phone preferably a 32 gig or less. Must be at least 1 gig. Phone will be wiped! A data connection or wifi is also required.
2. Download and extract the EMMC_15_VZW_NOTE4_BOOTLOADER_UNLOCK.7z
3. Reboot phone to download mode (pwr+voldwn+home_button). In Odin_Files folder use odin and flash the COMBINATION_VZW_FA44_N910VVRU2APB1.tar.md5 in BL slot in odin
4. Once phone is booted up and connected to computer run 1Install_KingRoot.cmd. This will install kingo root and kingroot app on phone.
5. Once installed make sure phone has data via cell or wifi. Run kingo root to root phone. Phone may kernel panic and reboot just keep trying. Once root is successful move to step 6 if unsuccessful try kingroot if thats succesful click on root permissions in the kingo root app and click on system adb and change prompt to allow. This is not necessary if rooted with kingo app
6. Make sure phone is connected to computer and run1Replace_With_SuperSu.cmd then once this process finishes run 2UnlockBootloader.cmd. This will change CID to Dev edition and then unlock that bootloader. If first time unlocking phone it will change your cid to dev edition then reboot during process. This is fine you will not loose root. Close cmd window wait for phone to reconnect then run again this time it will unlock the bootloaders when done phone will once again power off. Remove sdcard this is very important so I will say again remove SDCard from Phone your phone will not boot with sdcard in until it is reformated! Reboot to download mode you should notice it says DEV Mode.
7. Reboot phone and now you are ready to choose your bootloader you want to be on for this guide we will assume you want to be on latest QL1 Marshmallow bootloader.
8. Make sure phone is connected and run 3UnlockBootloader_MM_QL1.cmd or what ever one you choose. When done Phone will power off and now the bootloader is updated.
9. Now choose the firmware that matches your unlocked bootloader from below
N910VVRU1ANJ5_DEV_ROOTED.tar.rar Kit Kat 4.4 Rooted Firmware
N910VVRU2BOG5_DEV_ROOTED_SUPERSU.tar.rar Lollipop 5.0 Rooted Firmware

VZW_N910VVRU2CTI1_ROOTED_FORCE_WIPE.tar.7z Marshmallow 6.0 EFTSU Rooted Latest Firmware!!
10 Reboot phone to download mode and flash above firmware that matches your bootloader version Im using N910VVRU2CQL1_DEV_ROOTED_MAGISK.tar.rar as example. Extract N910VVRU2CQL1_DEV_ROOTED_MAGISK.tar.rar and use provide odin from EMMC_15_VZW_NOTE4_BOOTLOADER_UNLOCK and choose N910VVRU2CQL1_DEV_ROOTED_MAGISK.tar.md5 or the one you choose and in odin BL slot uncheck auto reboot and flash. When flash is done make sure to reboot to TWRP recovery which will be installed and wipe data then reboot. You are done!
11. Above firmware running magisk root may til you additional steps are needed and download magisk zip. You can skip this step if you want as it is rooted and magisk apk is installed but if you want I will provide magisk zip used in root if you want to reflash

Upgrade Bootloaders For EMMC 15 VZW DEV Unlocked Phones​
This process requires flashing back all stock firmware in order to upgrade/downgrade bootloaders. So I have made a special rom just for doing this which should make process easy. Its all done with odin and flashire.

1. Download the EMMC_15_VZW_NOTE4_BOOTLOADER_UPGRADE_ZIPS.7z and extract this will contain the zips and special firmware for upgrading bootloader. Download above firmware you want to upgrade/downgrade too.
2. You will probably need to wipe data so reboot to TWRP recovery wipe data then reboot to download mode use provide odin in the Odin_Files folder and choose FIRMWARE_FOR_UPGRADE_DOWGRADE_BOOTLOADERS.tar.md5 and flash in BL slot.

How long does N910VVRU2CQL1_DEV_ROOTED_MAGISK.tar.md5 take to flash?
It has not errored out at all but it seems to be taking longer than I have ever seen.
It's on tz.mbn.

@jrkruse THANK YOU for putting this into such a simplified method that doesn't require large downloads, multiple command lines, or having to downgrade and re-upgrade just to be able to achieve an initial root, unlock, and TWRP!!! I read through way too many methods that were a MILE long before I happened across this one. The ONLY issue i ran into during this process (should help others), was that I had to insert a newer version (and rename it to match the script) of the KingRoot APK to be able to achieve root on my existing CQL1 firmware. I tried the provided APK many times without success, but a newer version was able to achieve root on CQL1 after only a few attempts/reboots. I downloaded the newer APK (version 5.3.7) from the post provided by @Kingxteam at https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/one-click-root-tool-android-2-x-5-0-t3107461. If anyone is looking for a simple way to root and unlock CQL1 without having to downgrade first, THIS IS IT!!! Thanks again jrkruse for the automated script, and thank you Kingxteam for the thread and links for a KingRoot APK that works with CQL1!!!

I'm getting a bit fustrated by the rooting process. Hopefully someone would be able to help me out.
Once I finished step #3 and boot into the dev and I try to root, it fails. I have tried several times and keep on failing. I took a different route and approach by reinstalling the image and re installing the kingroot and the same. Finally I gave up, and replaced the kingroot apk by its newest release. Eventually I get rooted, but once i try to unlock the boot loader i get the following message "/system/bin/sh: su: not found" .Randomly I was able to successfully run unlookbootloader once, but once the device reboots, i lose root.
Im not sure what to do, to keep root at this point.

Did you install the combo firmware because you don’t loose root when on the combo firmware

Hello all. I'll start by acknowledging that I am a noob with very little experience but can follow technical instructions to achieve desired results when they are described easily for the uninitiated. That said, I too have 2 Verizon note 4s running marshmallow with build numbers ending in CQL1. Following your tutorial, I was able to get one of my phones to step 4 where as described, it kept showing the kernel panic error no less than 10 times. I took the suggestion of another user and was finally able to achieve root with the Kingroot desktop app on my PC. I then clicked on root permissions and changed the prompt to allow. At this point I proceeded to step 6 and after clicking 2UnlockBootloader.cmd, the phone did not reboot as described and the command window returned the following message:
D:\Desktop\EMMC>adb wait-for-device
You May Need To Accept Root Dialog On Phone ...
Files/n4unlock\: 1 file pushed. 1.2 MB/s (23432 bytes in 0.018s)
cd /data/local/tmp/n4unlock
chmod 777 unlock
chown root.root unlock
./unlock
yes
exit
/system/bin/sh: su: not found
Process Complete.
Press any key to continue . . .
No dialog box appeared on my phone and I'm not sure why it says SU not found or what the significance of that missing item is to the process. Am I missing a step? Assuming I have not unlocked the bootloader with step 6, what now? What should I do at this point to achieve the desired result? I do realize that these are older phones and some might care less but making them work now could help my family in a big way. I'd gladly share some of those savings with anyone willing to help troubleshoot... thanks in advance.

Working perfectly & really much much easier (than the original method which I have done twice so far so I know what I am talking about)!! Thank you

I have to throw in my hat saying that this method didn't work for me either. Like others I got stuck at the rooting stage, I tried numerous times to get root, it didn't work. I then used the upgraded KingRoot, it worked but step 6. 2UnlockBootloader.cmd script wouldn't take, since it seemingly kept losing root. But don't worry, if you've tried this method and are stuck you can still salvage it by going through the manual methods.
Make sure reactivation lock is off if you have the option (I didn't on the firmware that OP installed on the phone), usb debugging is on and adb devices brings up your phone)
----
Flash back to stock
----
I had to flash it to a stock rom using Odin (stick them in AP and make sure re-partition in options isn't checked) Android version 5.1.1, as going through the steps below (which are basically what's in 2UnlockBootloader.cmd) manually still wouldn't take: https://forum.xda-developers.com/no...mware-firmware-kernel-modem-recovery-t2942937
----
Root and bootloader unlock
----
I used the android version of KingORoot to root
I used this guide (the files used in this walkthrough are the ones largely used in the others below and downloads faster): https://forum.xda-developers.com/no...asy-guide-how-to-root-verizon-galaxy-t3454593
Which has a video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cfpehEkhfyg
and a text walkthrough with photos (that I like more) from the same guy here: https://galaxynote4root.com/galaxy-note-4-root/how-to-root-unlock-bootloader-on-galaxy-note-4/
(Since I largely used this make sure you put "samsung_unlock_n4-fix" in the fastboot folder)
Mine however began to bootloop (I'm unsure why they tell you to reboot to system on step 19 after installing the systemonly firmware but do it anyways I guess. But you had to install the kernel and superuser in twrp as addressed here: https://youtu.be/dhcV93GuHB4?t=1285
After that it booted up to 5.1.1 download rootcheck to root check it.
----
Rooting for Marshmallow
----
After that's done if you want to flash MarshMallow roms, including rooted stock 6.0.1 then you need to further go through the process here, which is basically doing it all over again:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/no...t/howto-bootloader-unlock-upgrade-to-t3398144
(Going through this process will kill your wifi connection, the KingORoot PC program didn't work to re-root mine, so you must have a sim card data connection I guess (or reverse tethering if you can get that to work(I had data so I didn't go through that).
then here when you get to the part about flashing a rom:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/no...firmware-safe-upgrade-to-marshmallow-t3402727
(Flashed with Odin (AP) not TWRP)
Anyway, I'm now rooted and bootloader unlocked. It wasn't too hard, once I found the guides it went pretty smoothly. Good luck!

using this method I get a black screen after booting up any aosp rom... logs from booted lineageos17.1:
https://pastebin.com/7yhL7FzM
