Root witouth modified recovery. Is it possible? - HTC One S

We can use this metod?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1746794

Just want to point out kernel and recovery are not the same thing. That author seems to be speaking about modified kernels. And the screen shots appear to be from a Samsung device which as far as I know is really different than an HTC device. I would try almost anything as it's an excuse to replace my phone if it doesn't work but I wouldn't try something from another manufacturer's device. And rooting on our device wasn't that hard. Just my two cents...

Yes but the method one is for most device
or most (if not all?) ICS phones having a CWM image at Clockworkmod site:

The method you posted is not essentially different from rooting an HTC, except HTC's require a dev unlock (or s-off) before you can push superuser.
You can have the stock kernel and rom, but be rooted.
Someone correct me, but you don't really need to flash a recovery before pushing SU.
Recovery only lets you have easier control if something goes wrong.

You need a custom recovery to root. Only way out of it is to use the SuperBoot method and I do not recommend that at all. Also, you can root and just flash a stock recovery. I don't know why you'd want a stock recovery, but that's all the info you requested.

Superboot?

Sound like boot with root access and push su to the system.
After all, re-flash back to stock kernel ?

no, because in custom recovery such an option as "apply update from external storage" is void correct me if i'm wrong.

That's the guide to reverting back to S-ON, it's not related to your question. But yes, with S-OFF you can flash an older RUU.

Right, but once we get CWM on our device, we can flash whatever we want, including the partitions (boot, system, maybe radio, etc) from this ROM. Or at the very least, merge its potential bug fixes with our devices.

Radios will not be flashable unless there is S-off. Not to mention you will not be able to run the ruu directly. It will have to be configured as a cwm flashable

Ah, I always forget about S-OFF. Although, with S-OFF, can we not just "fastboot flash radio radio.img?" That's what I've been doing with the DHD.

Built with the same files, different time stamps. Thats the only difference as far as the core files are concerned.

My phone got sent back to HTC when it WAS rooted. They left S-OFF, They set Custom recovery back to stock and put the latest Firmware on it.

I have downloaded the TWRP 2.6.3.0 and the Clockwork-touch-6.0.3.6-m4 from this forum. But I don't know if these are the latest versions for the One Mini, or which one to choose. :/
Also, is it possible to have the Sense 5 Toolbox on the Stock ROM? If not is ARHD available for the Mini?
Someone please HELP!

I got it to work in the meanwhile, but I still don't fully get the Volume2Wake. When the phone is charging it works every time, but when its on battery its as if the phone goes to sleep, so it can only be waken up by the power button. Some times if I press the vol button to wake, right after I lock the device it works flawlessly.

No you can't, To flash OTA you need to be on a device that's never been htcdev unlocked because it deletes some apks out of /preload/app ... or you need to run a RUU and achive full stock and then you can use OTA with stock recovery

You need to be htcdev unlock and root. Once you have that just enter these commands on your pc with your phone connected

I've checked it. Still don't know what do you want to achieve. And you didn't say which hboot do you have and which ROM. You just want root on your phone? For this you need to have your bootloader unlocked (at HTC Dev site) and then have a custom recovery flashed (latest TWRP for ex) and after that flash the superSU zip.
You can try by using one of these tools that make things easier: WinDroid Universal Android Toolkit or All-In-One Toolkit
You probably had something messed up during the process. After flashing a custom recovery, you can flash theoretically any ROM built for your hboot and most of the ROMs here are pre-rooted (have root included).
TIPS: Use a Windows 7 PC with USB 2.0 ports, Windows 8/8.1 and USB 3.0 have issues on certain configurations.

ROM name should be in the About Phone section. I really don't know what you've done there, rooting does not break camera. It seems you flashed some boot.img during the process as it looks like by that batch file you used. Maybe that has broken something in your ROM.
You could try flashing another ROM to see if the problem still persist
