Do a google search for firewater s-off HTC.
I just got a DNA, it is stock with 4.4.2. I was able to temp root and s-off with the firewater method. Follow these instructions to the letter (type your adb commands as they appear on the instructions..if it looks like a space in between letters then it is a space) Also, follow the Weaksauce method on Firewaters page. It is the second set of instructions.
Make sure firewater is in your adb directory too and you should have no problem.
Now I need to flash a custom recovery and install a stock rooted rom
I posted this in the rumrunner thread but also wanted to post here too to make sure you guys see it that are having problems getting s-off with the stock 4.4.2.
I just got s-off using weaksauce+firewater. I think it was the cables that prevented me from getting it to work before. I was using the cable that came with the phone and the one that came with my rezound and they didn't work. So I decided to get all the cables I have and try all of them to see if by chance it would work, and the first cable I tried worked like a charm. So don't give up guys, keep trying until it works because it does with 4.4.2 stock.
Need help not sure what is wrong
I am thinking about re-flashing using RUU but not sure that would help. I can not gain root access S-off on my replacement phone Verizon sent me. Any help would be greatly appreciated. If i have not included enough information my apologies as I normally figure these things out and have not had to post before. If this is not an appropriate thread to post in please redirect me. Also my boot loader is throwing tampered flag but is still locked S-on.

I'm interested to know how to root the DNA as i am on stock 4.4.2
Coming from a 4.4.2 Moto x where the only root was to temporary through adb commands, where root is disabled on reboot.
Is the DNA method the same? root disabled on reboot?

Not sure why but after reverting to an older version of tune in radio and clearing the cache the weak sauce work around started working. But i cannot update the binaries on supersu. when i open supersu two pop ups come on top the first i haven't been able to read and the second is to update binaries it fails the update however and says reboot and try again i have tried several times to correct this with no succes help would be greatly appreciated because at this time i am seriously contemplating destroying this phone and calming insurance. I think Iwould rather have no phone then a stock phone.

Worked for me as far as I can tell. My device says S-ON but above that says 'UNLOCKED' and I was able to flash the CWR 5 recovery image and use that as posted earlier in this thread.
The worst nightmare was getting my computer to recognize the phone. I had recently put a new hard drive in my computer, and HTC Sync etc would NOT work. I tried TWO other computers and still would not work. Finally had to dig up the old hard drive, put it back in my first computer (since I had used that successfully to update my Slide in the first place to Froyo 2.2) and do all the steps.
Still can't explain what the problem was, since the new hard drive is the same base OS (Win 7 Ultimate 32 bit) but at least it worked. And now this phone has some life again (despite a failure to replace a cracked digitizer)

You can't S-OFF with the new bootloaders. But at least with your bootloader unlocked, you can do some of the things an S-OFF'd phone can (like flashing CWM Recovery and r/w in /system/), so it's still fairly useful.
1st let me say I hope this is the right form to ask this program nor I am not complaining about the developers work my issue is I ran the program (RegawMOD) 3 times with no success, fortunately i haven't bricked my phone yet, but when i re-ran it it shows my phone is unlocked but i haven't acheieved root. What are the steps to relocking the regawMOD until an updated has been released. It was my fault for not reading the entire thread before attempting a root that was not designed for my update. Any thoughts and help would be greatly appreciated.

I thought i needed to see the SU app notification to be rooted. Since I didn't see it after i got the "pushing error" i thought it wasn't fully rooted just unlocked. But if all i have to do is download a recovery without SU and it gives me ability to flash i will do that. Thanks again

Since you took ota, regaws method did not give you root. The previous post mentioned getting a recovery so you can then in turn push SU or flash a rom with SU built in.

The previous poster has got it...install SuperSU and Busybox from the market. Open SuperSU app and update binaries. If that still doesn't work, try rootchecker to see if you really have root access. Check this thread:

If your bootloader is already unlocked, no reason to re lock it...you're halfway there. What software version are you on? Have you checked out zedomax's method for gaining root access?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1671577
Do you have a custom recovery installed (TWRP)? If so, you should be able to flash a stock ROM that already has root.

Regaw was going to work on his unlocker today to update it for the new OTA.
Now that you are unlocked there is absolutely no reason to re-lock it. I will tell you how to do it though:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5yS7yy4XVA4
The smart way to go from here:
All you need to do is setup fastboot on your computer, reboot your phone into fast boot, and push the recovery.img manually.

Here is an example of my "android" folder. Note its named platform tools here because I was meddling in development for a while. The title of the folder doesnt matter. You just need fastboot.exe and your recovery.img in the same folder.
Note, I do not have the recovery in my folder. You will need it. I also have a lot of crap in there you probably wont have

After that all you need to do is enter the correct command to flash. Note: You can copy and paste the correct code.
Keep in mine my "android" folder is named differently, so the words in my command prompt may look different. As long as you use the Shift+right click method to open the command prompt you will be in the correct folder

You may be out of luck, due to the process you decided to do.
But out of curiosity, have you tried selecting apply from phone storage?
I don't recall if the stock recovery looks there for the emulated sd/internal storage files or not.
It may be that is the case and it's looking for a physical sd card when you select sd card from the menu.
If that isn't the case or doesn't help, I'm sorry.
Just thought it's worth trying if you haven't.

thanks but Im already on HBOOT 1.57 S-On so I can not downgrade!
I suggest you unlock your phone through fastboot usb. then, you install custom recovery. in that manner you can flash again the KK update

How to unlock the phone through fastboot?
htc dev unlock method is not working anymore.. is there any other unlock method which doesn't need abd and works on fastboot connection?
use rumrunner or moonshine. its your call..
theres no other way. all exploits run through adb and fastboot mode.

Try weaksauce and firewater... Else sell phone

Have you tried the ruu in this thread? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=49480720
You still have fastboot working, which is all you need for that. Just use the latest ruu posted there and follow the instructions. That should at least get you a usable phone.
After that, if you want to unlock it use firewater s-off. I haven't used it, so I couldn't walk you through it, but the instructions are on the website.

have you tried to unlock bootloader through the zip in this thread yet? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2160677
here is the zip from the thread ... http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?il51rl2j1m8417b
Just tried and I got a temp root with Weaksauce from the M8 forums, which allowed me to run firewater for S-Off on the 4.4.2 ota.
1.) Install the necessary drivers
2.) Install and gain temp root with weaksauce, from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2699089
3.) After obtaining Temp root (TuneInRadio will appear in your notification bar if its running) Run Firewater (normal, rooted device method) and your golden: http://firewater-soff.com/instructions/
Make sure to follow all the instructions for Weaksauce and Firewater.

Works great. Returned to full stock 3.06 S-On, took OTA, and ran weaksauce + firewater no problem. Much easier than the original facepalm & htcdev.

Thanks for the additional confirmation. Yea, this was actually one of the easier unlocks/s-offs I've had in a while. Thanks to the devs of those wonderful programs.

Can confirm this worked for me as well. Anyone figure out a working wifi hotspot solution for us very rare rooted, unlimited, kit kat users? Wireless tether apk seems to fail for me.
Worked fantastic for me! Easiest way to root and s-off yet! Custom romantic now up and running. I used flashify to install TWRP.
HOLY, GOD, THANK YOU. I just did this with my old DNA, worked flawlessly. Even checked for OTA updates right beforehand and it said it was up to date. So this even worked on the newest update. THANK YOU SO MUCH

Edit: Rooted, unlocked.
So happy I found this thread haha.

Yea it is, I've even tried switching it off and on again and reconnecting the phone and still nothing. ADB does perform the action but comes up with nothing in the list.

Same problem here but on a Windows 7 machine. USB debugging enable, most recent windows drivers installed, uninstalled and re-installed. No matter what I do, ADB does not see my phone. Really frustrating because it has worked on this same computer previously before the Kit Kat update.
I can't get this to work. I am S-OFF from old OTA soff method, took the latest OTA now I am relocked and SOFF, but not able to flash any recovery due to relocked status. I can't unlock.
I tired weaksauce method and it says already rooted, but its not. I reset the phone to try again with no luck.
I tried to change the CID and that didnt work.
Tried to run earlier RUU and won't let me. Is there a PH98IMG of the latest OTA?
Thanks.

4.42 weaksauce wont work Please help
I can not gain root access S-off on my replacement phone Verizon sent me. Any help would be greatly appreciated. If i have not included enough information my apologies as I normally figure these things out and have not had to post before. If this is not an appropriate thread to post in please redirect me. Also my boot loader is throwing tampered flag but is still locked S-on.
Sweet....Worked here too. Two things for anyone having issues....When you install SuperSU, you don't need to run it. It'll say installation failed if you do, but that's nothing to worry about. Second, after you do the adb reboot, wait 1-2 minutes after the reboot completes before you run the next command. You need to give time for temp root to be regranted.
Time to unlock the bootloader...
---------- Post added at 05:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:02 PM ----------
Ok, so something else. After doing the above, if you run SuperSu it will tell you that you need to update your su binary and recommends you use TWRP to do it. So I cancelled out and installed Rom Installer from the play store and used it to flash TWRP 2.7.1. Then rebooted (not sure if necessary), then reran SuperSU. This time when it prompted me I told it to go ahead and update itself using TWRP. It did just that and all is good now.
Works Like Greased Lightning!!
Thanks SOOOOOO Much for providing this guide for S-Off for all of us who (stupidly) Allowed VZW to push the 4.4 Update to our Droid DNA's!!
This worked So easily, the Very First time! Follow both the weaksauce Guide and the firewater Guide EXPLICITLY and you will have no problems at all! Thanks to all of the devs who made this possible!

you dont need to be unlocked to install a recovery.
pack up your recovery image with an android info text document.
use fastboot/ruu mode to install the recovery zip file.
if you really want to use htcdev,you can also change your cid. if 11111111 or 22222222 dont work,try 33333333 or HTC__001(just remember to change it back when youre done)
Ok well i figured out my problem
