Rooting HTC one - AT&T HTC One (M7)

I'm going to be switching from gs3 to HTC one. Just wanted to known if all at&t models can be rooted? I know there is boot loader to be unlocked, is HTC allowing that on all devices?

Thank you. Is HTC going to leave that going? Reason I ask is I read a while ago (when the phone first came out) that they were gonna stop unlocking boot loaders.

They said they were going to close the gap but I honestly don't think so if anyone wants it done it's att and not HTC! They actually like people who help them with development progress and debugging etc ! If you font wanna unlock now just go through the steps and save your key from HTC and then unlock when ya want

You currently can't root 1.5 without using HTC's method. Revolutionary is supposedly working on it but its been along time and there doesn't seem to be that much of a rush since HTC released their method.

I just dont agree with HTCs method. I would rather have s-off so I can flash kernels through recovery.

Same here luda I'm still waiting for unrevoked to be updated it seems that alot of people are having problems with oficial htc unlock and you can't even install cm7 unless you rooted your phone with unrevoked so I guess we just have to wait maybe one month or two or three who knows

Yea but it sure is taking long though. I have sat in front of my pc ready to use HTC unlock but I just don't want to.
Sent from my PG86100 using xda premium
It is possible to flash CM7 with the HTC Unlock . You have to do it through fastboot . But I agree with everyone here Im not really liking the idea of using the HTC unlock . I to have found myself on HTC's website but just cant bring myself to trust them . I have been waiting patiently for Alpha/Unrevoked to work some magic . That or hope like hell something goes wrong with mine and I get another warranty claim and get 1.40 bootloader on the replacement LOL
How long have you guys been waiting?
Also I don't see no threads out there about alpha/rev working on hboot 1.50 so that ish is driving me crazy....

Hello all! I need serious help!

I really need to be brought up to speed on HTC development. I'm coming from a Motorola Droid x2 and I thought development would be the same but its totally different. I don't even know what the hell s-on or s-off means. I'm going to be receiving 2 new rezounds for my wife and I and I'm going to need to get them rooted, updated to ics, and new roms flashed on them. My Droids bootloader was locked down so our devs just worked around the kernel. Anyone know of any tutorials or anything that can help me out and bring me up to speed on the lingo and what (if anything) I should not do with these phones? Also, looks like they are being shipped to me running 2.3.4 which needs to go! Thanks!

Story, one more question from the FNG, is there really that much of a benefit to wait for the official ics to be released? I'm getting the new phones today or tomorrow and I'm somewhat impatient. I can't stand bloatware. Sorry if I'm asking obvious questions but I know once I root and install ics firmware I can't go back if there is a release. Thanks.

You can go back if you're S-OFF with a RUU.
For the time being, you can flash a few different ICS leaks which are close to the official OTA but that's the beauty of modding our phones, you can even stay on Gingerbread and flash ICS ROMs and run fine with a patch as well.
Having problems with s-off. Using controlbear but everytime I attempt to begin program it says connect device and install drivers. Thi is very frustrating. Would like to actually get to the wire trick

Sure you have installed the HTC Sync drivers, and gone through the whole HTC Dev Unlock process properly? And make sure the option for USB debugging is on in the ROMs settings, plus Fast Boot is off. Check basic cabling and whatnot first too of course. Try a clean run on another PC if all else fails.
Thanks for the help!

Okay, so, I pretty much have everything set up perfect except does anyone know how to change boot animation? Running clean rom dev edition and when I use rom toolbox to change and install new animation then reboot, it just shows the regular clean rom boot animation so the change isn't sticking obviously. Thanks

Do you guys think it's safe to root my HTC One X+ right now? Or should I wait a little longer

Root now. It's pretty safe (I mean, nothing is 100% certain) but so long as you follow directions, you'll be fine. Use this toolkit and you should be good.

Im assuming you have ATT.
Upon rooting, make sure to stay away from anything that says INTERNATIONAL. If it does not state, make sure to check the posts in the thread, or post yourself to see if its for ATT or INTERNATIONAL. Most of the development in this subforum is for the INTERNATIONAL HOX+ so be aware and be cautious.
Other then that. Rooting is simple and not dangerous at all. Toolkit works perfect, MAKE SURE TO FLASH ATT TWRP RECOVERY
Ok thanks a lot, I'm probably gonna usr haboon2000's rootkit but I'm not sure which one to DL. The normal HTC one x+ version or the one below that which says HTC one x+ for evita (Rogers,ATT,Telstra)

Okay thank you, I just don't wanna brick my phone lol. I was this careful even when i rooted my Inspire 4G couple years back. You can't let your phone die when you root right?
Nope, root alone does no.harm! But you gotta have unlocked bootloader
What exactly does the unlocked bootloader do? I'm pretty much a noob right now. still learning but right now i'm a hardcore noob lol. I'm gonna go on HTCdev.com to unlock my bootloader now.

Does HTC just like losing money?

HTC is taking down websites with custom Roms for their device. Why, if they don't stop this it looks like I will be getting a nexus device next. Here's the article. http://www.androidauthority.com/htc-takes-down-rom-files-across-the-web-150757/ what are your guys opinions?

Unlocking your device yourself will be illegal but the carrier can still unlock it for you ( sim unlock not boot loader )
Sent from my HTC One XL using Tapatalk 2
People are getting upset about something they don't fully understand... This law is for unlocking the phone to bring to other carriers to use... not unlocking or rooting. and our phone comes factory unlocked so there's no reason to QQ here on the DNA forums...
I love the DNA and I hate to say it ... but if this is how it's going to be then my next phone will not be an HTC device. Their build quality and overall hardware is fantastic, but I find it ridiculous that they're going after dev's like this. I'd rather pick up a Galaxy S4 when it's released and unload my DNA if this is how they're going to treat their market/buyers.
Seems HTC didn't want prerelease leaked ruu's out which were obtained by illegal means as the main reason for the shutdown.
If we host a Sense 5 Rom, same thing might happen here I suppose.

I realize IT said that about that one site but the motivation is the RUUs obtained that are hosted on that site. That's the driver. Don't host RUUs and there won't be an issue.

Very unlike them. They normally lock everything down, and make you suffer before they even think about unlocking a phone for you.

Supercid will likely come at the sametime s-off comes which defeats the purpose anyway. Cid partition now has the same power-on wp that the security flag partition has always had. Needless to say, the old HTC exploits are closed and we are starting from the ground up.

It's the file you get in an Email from HTC after you submit your phone's unlock key.
