I just purchased a Java card s-off from the HTC modzone, and I'm wondering if the weaksauce root that is out will work as a permanent root once my phone is s-off? Or will I have a s-off device and have to wait for a new permanent root method?
Thanks

+1 Can we use the recovery for the other variants or we just now have S-Off? Thanks
I guess this should be moved to Q&A
You might be able to use a recovery from the sprint variant, but I'm not sure.
What about root? Is it permanent?

If you do it from recovery, yes.
Once you are s-off, you don't need weaksauce anymore.
Just flash su through a custom recovery like you would normally do when rooting an android device.

Not that there's a custom recovery for the VZW M8 yet...
What if I don't want custom recovery? I come from a long line of Motorola devices, I'm use to just rooting and I'm done. I don't need/want custom roms, just want full root.

Is HTC ModSource Sonic? I would assume so given the CO address. Might have to send my phone to him
My question is, how much support for custom ROM's and kernel's are going to be around with such a limited number of people being able to do this?
support thread is live
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2704126
i cant speak for sonic,but in the past he has been willing to do a couple dev phones for free. i wouldnt worry too much about support... either a software exploit will be found,or more folks will get tired of waiting and use his service. either way,there will eventually be support.
i have used his service as well. there is no disasembly of your shiny new phone,and he is trustworthy individual. as long as you also pay for enuff insurance youve nothing to lose but a few days away from your new baby
I already miss mine as I sent it out today... lol

Oh snap! Ok sending donation as soon as I get on my laptop!
Has anyone yet provided a step by step video by chance? I know nothing about adb stuff as I've never had to use it so reading the firewater instructions I'm a little lost :/. Haven't tried installing weak sauce root either yet, is this easy or a video? I believe i need weak sauce root installed first? Then S-Off, then I install twrp? How would I install twrp and after I do install does it then install full root then can delete weak sauce?
I'm sorry I know this literally was release an hour ago but just hate to brick my device out of ignorance and not knowing. Appreciate any help for someone like me that doesn't use adb or sure of the methods and steps here.

has anyone tried to flash the kernel yet?
It looks like we have R/W access without doing this after firewater. I've added/removed stuff from /system without any issues(apps, priv-apps, stuff from the media resources, etc)
edit: I've done probably 20 reboots with no issues along the way of modding stuff and still everything is fine.

nevermind you answer is in your edit
You do not need this kernel mod after you have S-off'ed and perm rooted.

Yes , i did the exact same thing and it works . I used weaksauce to get temporary access to root while i was running rumrunner , and it finally gave in . Good stuff by the developers. Sending my contribution and thanks to them soon !
Just breaking it down in case a newbie (like i was 3 days ago) can make his/her life simpler.
1. rumrunner works in most cases for HTC ONE X (AT&T , USA) version for getting S-OFF. But it needs root access. One way to try and do this is to get WeakSauce installed on your phone (i also installed SuperSU from the app store) .
2. Now once u start executing rumrunner , make sure you use weaksauce to get super user access . Rumrunner will reboot ur machine ,and sometimes weaksauce did not work on my phone after a reboot , and in such cases i manually ran the app on the phone (though rum-runner says no). This lets rumrunner continue and get your phone to S-OFF successfully.
3. Once rumrunner reports that its done (pouring..followed by something that suggests its done, cant remember what , right now), you will get S-OFF on your device ( reboot into bootloader by pressing vol down +power) and check the status.
4. After this you can do anything you want ! like install cyanogenmod (cyanogenmod evita , i run cm11 snapshot 10)
And these developers are awesome ! Also @grigoriisii , sorry if this looks like im hijacking the thread , just trying to give a bit more details for the lazy one/newbie checking the last post

I've been looking around and it seems there isn't a lot we can do with the AT&T Note Pro? I've rooted and let SuperSU disable KNOX for me. Should I just go ahead and start debloating via TiBU or is there more that I can do? Thanks!
EDIT: Also if I install the newest update for it can I still root?
Well, it seems I may not be able to root after updating. Even after getting the PRO version of SuperSU and checking the box to try and get root to survive, I have lost root. Also now Towelroot says my device is no longer supported. I know I read of another root method, so I will try that and report back.

Well the other root method (CF-AutoRoot) isn't compatible with the P907A. So... can anyone give me some guidance on how to revert to an older firmware. I'm sure it's possible I just haven't ever had to do it, so I don't really know how.

You are stuck. No root/unlock for Verizon on the 5.0.1 update and no way to downgrade.

Whenever they find an exploit.
I'm just guessing here but I think they might be working hard on getting the M9 (verizon ) S-off and unlocked before doing anything with the M8 Lollipop .......just MHO
Started OTA and Stopped 1/2 Way
***UPDATE***
I answered my own question. I was just able to run Sunshine and it tested my phone. My gosh how relevied I was to see that it passed. Talk about dodging a bullet!
_______________________________
I, like the posts above, got a refurb M8. I did one update, but held off on the other.
I checked and I'm still running 4.4.4.
Do I have a chance of rooting/s-offing/unlocking?
Will sunshine work and what do I use to root? I used weaksauce before, but that isn't supposed to work now (from what I hear).
I'm glad I didn't to the last OTA update, but not sure where to start/turn now. Actually I only postponed it for 12 hours. It really wants me to update. {getting worried}
Thanks;
A (very very hopefull) Bug :fingers-crossed:
The hold up on both the m8 and m9 is a root exploit for android 5. The security in android 5 has taken a huge leap forward and closed all of the known root exploits. Until another is found, verizon devices are stuck unless you go the java card route. Just look browse the verizon note 4 forums, they don't have a root exploit either.

Better answer than the extremely rude one I received earlier. Even though I was in the wrong for asking for an ETA, there was a better way of telling me to not ask that.
Hi

Can anyone point me to some instructions that do work for OPOs running CM13.1 that will allow me to root my phone without wiping any data

Well you only want root right?
You can simply do it without unlocking boot loader.
Just search for kingoroot or kingroot apk on google and use it making sure you've a good internet connection.It may need a few tries before rooting. But it will 100% work.
Not the best choice...You should install the system less supersu imo.
