Hello, i have this file with me: UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.51
Can someone give me step by step procedure how to root htc one mini with this file?
Thanks
To root, I think all you have to do is just unlock your hboot and flash twrp custom recovery then install root.

copy it to your phone using the USB cable or download it to your phone. If you don't have access to your OS, push it to your phone with ADB. It's like any other file you would transfer to your phone.. And run it from TWRP or CWM recovery.

What rom would people recommend for the htc one mini? I have also rooted my mini but have left it stock. Thinking of the magio rom but might wait for the 4.3 update to be incorporated into it first.

I personally haven't tried out 4.3 yet, but I'm not impressed by reports so far, that and it seems to be in it's early stages, like when 4.2 first came out it was full of bugs for a lot of phones.
Personally Magio R3 JB 4.22 and JMZ kernel have worked pretty much flawlessly for me. With a few extra tweaks and mods it does everything i could want it to and I do a lot with my phone. 4.3 is still buggy with a lot of apps, although app devs are updating quickly. And with all that said 4.4 may be around the corner.

Thanks for that. I will download and try. I was going to use Titanium Backup to backup apps and app data and then restore when the new rom is flashed.(will do a nandroid backup of stock first)
Is that the best way to restore apps+data and contacts/messages etc... or is there something better out there. Thanks for help. Much appreciated. Relatively new to all this!!

Titanium Backup is your best bet for backup and restore of USER apps, restoring a "missing" system app to a new ROM is NOT a good idea, especially if the backup is from an odexed stock rom.
Your contacts are synced to your GMAIL account, so no need to backup, but if you want to have a copy, export to vcf format from contacts settings, manage contacts menu.
For SMS, i'd recommend either Super Backup : SMS & Contacts, or SMS Backup & Restore - both are available free from Play Store....
4.3 isn't that bad, better than 4.2.2, but poor in comparrison to kitkat 4.4.2 - sooo sweet!
Oh, I'd advise downloading deodexed ROMs

No, there is no 4.4 source available for the mini..... I run it on my Nexus 7 2013
The one mini should start receiving 4.4.2 sometime during February, but dates will vary by network..... As soon as someone gets the update and provides a system dump, we can start building ROM's.....

after flashing the new rom i have to reinstall and reconfigure all the apps right?
do i have to manually remove the one installed on the sd card?
can i create a backup image to restore the phone as it is now?
thanks in advance if someone will answer these silly questions

Yes you should backup all your apps before a new rom. For that you should use titanium backup application(keep the apk file of it app in ur sd card). Backup all your apps using the batch backup option in the app. Then after installing new rom just install titanium backup app and restore all your apps. And about contacts,copy all your contacts to sim.
nice thanks!
didn't know i could restore the apps on a different rom
now i'll try to find a way to do a complete backup of gingerbread to restore in case i want to revert to the original rom
You can backup entire gb stock rom, as an "image", using pratyush's modded version of cwm5...

Yes you will be able to install any fonts.
For installing fonts you just had to be rooted, there isn't any limitation of which android version you are using, I myself able to install fonts from gingerbread to JB 4.2.2

Before messing up with something, go into recovery and choose backup, after backup is done, start messing up, if by chance you go into bootloop, then go into recovery again, and do a restore. Done!

It's been successfully rooted with POOT.
It has also been rooted via CWM by Area51 Here for CWM and then Here for Root! I did find some ROM development going on at Area51 as well here. Area51's CWM does not appear to play nice with any phone rooted with Poot however so it's best to install CWM from Area51 first and then use their root method.

The root method used at A51 is out-of-date, and can't be updated. Therefore, you'll continuously receive an update notification and won't be able to stop it.

Not True! All you have to do is just not install the update when it boots you into CWM. This will be fixed when they complete the ROM they're working on. I don't get update reminders after accepting the first one and just not installing it once in recovery mode at the install screen!

You might want to wait for Area51 to complete their first ROM for the phone. Currently it has an annoying update that keeps trying to install over the rooted stock OS that will break root if you install it. Of course you can just keep clicking on accept and then selecting NO when you get to the install update screen in CWM like I do, but it's an annoyance.

just so you know as well... root is independent of ROMs. you can have custom ROMs without root.

Honestly, I have never used flashify. I am in the process of making a backup so that I can verify it will restore correctly. Individuals in the other twrp thread used flashify to flash that version though.
Flashify works fine. I flashed this over top of the other TWRP using flashify. Works great when you are not by a computer!
