[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.

TWPR 3.1.0 and EMUI 5

Hi,
anyone tried to flash TWRP 3.1.0? https://dl.twrp.me/vienna/
Maybe succesfully rooted the P9+ with it?
Regards

Flashed on B360 but still unable to enter TWRP Recovery, just stuck on bootscreen "Your device has been unlocked..."
//Niklas

Any update for successful root ?????

FYI.... I'm on L29C636B362 and have full root, however I'm struggling to exchange the emojis to iOS 10.2 as I can't stand the android ones...
I used the EVA TWRP 3.1.0 and it works fine with the latest phh SuperUser ZIP and binary.

Hello nikjensie, a favor I want to ask if you can post the procedure for granting that you made and the files you've used, because I on a P9 Plus VIE-L09C02334 have failed to have the root conn new TWRP, despite having tried to use latest SuperSu files, from 2.78 to 2.79. Thanks in advance and hope you can help me. See you soon
I hope that you understand their English translation.

No, can you give me the link or if there is any thread on the forums. I did the phone unlocked, loaded the new TWRP and then I tried to load the various SuperSu, with negative results. In fact, failing to have the root are returned to the previous version of Andorid (Marshmallow).

A previous poster said he used TWRP 3.1.0 for the P9 (EVA). I just tried that version, and although it seems to flash ok via fastboot, a boot into recovery does not advance past the "Your device is booting now..." screen. :crying:

Go with the phone in bootloader and through the tool Universal_Fastboot_And_Adb_Tool loads the file that you find in this mega folder: mega:#fm/n5JlDJbT I shared. See that the language is Chinese and English.
You can also install it with command-ADB Fastboot if you back better.

Okay I installed the TWRP from this package and was able to boot into TWRP (3.03) recovery and change the language to english. I tested a nandroid backup and all seems to work fine. I was not able to install phh superuser. The install fails with: "Updater process ended with Error 1". I guess I am missing a crucial step in rooting Nougat on the VIE-L29C636 ROM?

Hello, I too with the new TWRP I managed to back up and restore her, but miss the fact that we can have the rott. I tried to install the various 'SuperSu', 'phh superuser' and not least 'Magisk', not get anything good. Now I left clean, no bootloader unlocked and no TWRP. but its original recovery, waiting for some of the many programmers and modders are able to find a winning combination in order to have the root on our phone. One reason for the only backup I am using the app 'Backup Huawei' already installed it does its job very well, in qunto also saves the settings that we do. See you soon and good navigation and use with this amazing phone.

Thank you for the response. I did use the same TWRP version from the linked site. It's actually v3.0.3. It installs and works fine; to the extent that I was able to successfully complete a nandroid backup in TWRP. However, when I tried to install phh Superuser r2.75 it fails with message "Updater process ended with Error: 1". Is it possible that I needed to uninstall/remove the previous root (SuperSu) that existed before I upgraded from MM to Nougat?

root can be achieved with systemless root. i think the version is 2.79 found in the p9 forums. i rooted my p9+ with the latest nougat earlier today. twrp is now 3.1.0.

I'm going to try rebrand.

Its for the first time ever i am unable to unlock the boot loader, i obtained the boot loader unlock code by the following method for my mate 10. Don't know whats went wrong , when i try to unlock the boot loader in fastboot its giving an error. anyone can guide me on this?
Edit: I logout the Huawei Id and also set the usb debugging to Manufacture Mode by using *#*#2846579#*#* and then tried to unlock the boot loader and it worked as a charm.

No! you cant flash a full nougat rom with fastboot.
Bootloader cant be downgraded!
for hardbricked phones you have first to boot it using the sdcard img.
then when you get bootloader working without sdcard, can use this tutorial

1. Oreo Battery drains considerably faster than 7.1. (But charges faster too)
2. Fingerprint unlocks slower than 7.1
3. Lags slightly when doing intensive tasks.

LOS14.1 has been updated:
NEW BUILD: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid...63190603848665
Change log: November 18 Security Update
NOTE: Like so many other users, I too updated my device with OREO and stuck with that. I haven't tried downgrading it because I don't want to end up with a hard-bricked device once again. Point here is the new build is not tested. So please take a TWRP backup before using this build. Don't forget to post me even if works fine.
Thanks,

May I know what rom did you use for flashing with this method?
And do you know if bootloader needs to be unlocked in order to downgrade with this guide?

can the downgrade be done without the bootloader unlocked?

the methods don't work for xt1799-2!

So has anyone figured out how to root the phone?

I've tried multiple rooting programs to try to root the phone, but none of them seem to work. So my question is, has anyone figured out a working method to get root? (I've unlocked the boot loader already)

If you go into developer options it allows you to unlock the bootloader.

I don't think that completely unlocks the bootloader

All that does is ALLOW the bootloader to be unlocked - it doesn't unlock it.

I just unlocked the bootloader
Used adb
"Fastboot flashing unlock"
Next im gonna try to apply root
Wish me luck

I have just ordered this phone. Will hopefully be able to share backup copies of ramdisk(boot) to be used with magisk to give root

Well if anyone is Interested in trying out mtk-su to get system-less, boot-less root it should work. It worked with my umidigi phone that also has mtk p70 soc. And running pie.

Here is device back up script project I had done based on that mtk-su.
https://github.com/mrmazakblu/Root-Backup-Helper

My test of using mtk-su did not work out.
But i do have backup copy of the stock boot.img , install magisk manager (currently i used V 7.3.4, after magisk update, V20 caused device trouble. Recommend stay with mahisk v19.3) and patch the boot.img from link below, then flash with "fastboot flash boot /file.name" to have full root.
here is stock boot file

:::UPDATE::10-27
Successfully flashed magisk with twrp. But because the current twrp has no working touchscreen. It was done with ADB commands.

You can follow full guide found on magisk thread.
Here is general steps.
1. Install magisk manager app
2. Select install. Choose option to patch local file.
3. When complete, copy that patched_boot.img to PC
4. Fastboot flash boot patched_boot.img
I did not share the patched boot.img. you need to do this step on your own. Is better that way.

I feel maybe I was too general in the steps. (not enough detail) sorry.
If you got to the part when it is loading patched_boot
then you got past the patching part.
so, you need to find the patched_boot.img . It should be in the download folder on device
copy this to your PC.
reboot phone to bootloader mode.
then open terminal in same window as the copied patched_boot.img file, or use the full path name in the command.
In the following example, the patched_boot.img file is saved in c:\adb
Code:
adb pull /sdcard/Download/patched_boot.img c:\adb\
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot flash boot c:\adb\patched_boot.img
fastboot reboot

Do you mean, flashing gsi image, or editing things on stock system. I have been focussed on tarp, and my tried either case.
I can do that soon and confirm if system is freeze.
OK, first time i tried to flash GSI here it is failed.
used fastboot flash system **gsi.img**
(phh v119)
it flashed without error, but will not go past bootloader splash screen. --ODD
will try again later

I did everything according to the instructions that you suggested, and everything worked out for me, I got a root, but when I try to change the system files, the phone freezes, maybe the root is not full? Thanks for your work)

Well all depends on what system files you have changed.
I was able to delete the system private-app file "blu-ignite" (an unauthorized app installed program) without freezing system.
I was on magisk 19.3. when I try to update to magisk v20 then I have issues. Freezes, wifi not turn on, ect. So try to restore stock, and Will have to use custom update Chanel with magisk to force it to use the older version.
I am also trying to see if twrp can be used tethered, to install magisk. By using "adb shell twrp sideload" command. And sideloading the magisk file.
If, when I see it works I can write the the whole process.
