Hey everyone ... I got the OTA update for my HTC One (M8) on verizon a few weeks ago and now I've gotten bored with it and wanna play around with some new roms. I've been trying to unlock the bootloader and root and every single solution requires it to be on android 4.4.4 or less. I can't figure this out and was wondering if anyone could help me out or let me know if there was a way to still do this. Thanks

You are stuck. No root/unlock for Verizon on the 5.0.1 update and no way to downgrade.
As of yet, at least.
I'm in the same boat. I really wish I would have unlocked when I had 4.4.x running. Now I'm stuck with 5.0.1 and stock bloatware until SunShine updates. argh.....

Until SunShine updates, you may disable most bloatware in the app manager.
When I run Sunshine it says I already have S-Off from previous root, what do I need to do if anything?
When I run supersu it says no su binary installed and that if I just upgraded to android 5.0 I need to manually reroot. and when I try to run twrp manager, it says root is required.

you probably just need to flash twrp via fastboot and then root.

Flash TWRP 2.8.6.0 via fastboot. Then you can install super-su or a custom ROM.

Just received an insurance replacement and goofed with an OTA 5.0.1. . Sunshine says I need to be rooted first. What do I do to root so I can s off. Thanks in advance for any input. I have been out of the loop for a bit and need to freshen up on this htc forum

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.

I was wondering if rooting is possible on T-mobile's LG G2 yet on the 4.4.2 KitKat update. I had root privileges before and then when I updated I lost them. I'm not interested in going back to 4.2.2. Then I came across ioroot25, claiming to have added support for 4.4.2 devices. The process was only like 2 steps, the first being to root into recovery. Whenever I try to do that I see the little android dude on my screen for a fraction of a second saying something like installing system update (main point being, the root batch file from ioroot25 isn't getting the device to go into recovery, meaning I CAN'T accept the adb update, which was step two)
ANY SOLUTION?

For all other G2 models, the ioroot method (version 25) works. One prerequisite for that method is access to recovery. We (d801 owners) do not have access to recovery. Attempts to access recovery are being documented in the thread titled "[Please Read] We need help to try and find out how to get into stock 4.4 recovery!" Keep your eye on that thread. If we can get access to recovery, we can use ioroot.
Ok so I got my XT1080 few days or whatever and it had the first 4.4 ota, you know the one with the transparent status bar but still that blue jelly bean hue on the status bar etc.... So not thinking of it I just decided to see if there was another ota and there was so I got it and now I want root.... Here's what I want to know please.. Without telling me to go read 30 pages on another post can someone just tell me
Is there root for me
If so do I have to have boot loader unlocked, I've had phones with locked boot loaders and still flashed Roms
Can I flash Roms on this device with a locked boot loader via twrp
I mainly read that you have to downgrade to a certain version use jcase method it something? I got lost in that bounty post..
Yes there is!
Note
This little guide assumes you know how to install adb and use basic command-line tools.
First, flash your phone back to a older version with rsdlite. (instructions: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=53141176&postcount=6)
Second, use jcase's pie exploit. (instructions: http://forum.xda-developers.com/mot...-x-pie-motorola-devices-t2771623/post53128101)
Third, use motowpnomo, but executing "adb shell /data/local/atvc/root.sh" in a separate cmd window every time the device reboots (instructions for motowpnomo: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x/orig-development/kill-write-protection-motowpnomo-t2551113 as for the command, just spam it till it goes through)
Forth, install your superuser application (and safestrap if you want custom rom functionality)
Fifth, profit!
Note that you do have read/write access to system and root access, but still a locked bootloader.

alright my inner noob is going crazy. i see a zillion threads on how you need to roll back to 4.2.2 rom. my question is do i need to roll back if im on 4.4 stock?
i must have downloaded every tool and rom needed by this point. a step by step would be awesome. lots of tutorials available but im seeing they are mostly off of the x which i do understand is practically a sibling to the ultra and maxx.
any info or step by step would be awesome. lastly if i dont need to roll back to an earlier version that would be super. thanks!!!

Boot loader is not unlocked. However if I do the update I won't be able to get root. Correct?
Correct. You are on the correct version to begin root. With Jcase's pie and run wp off. You can keep that when you update to 19.6.3 however when you update to 4.4.4 youll lose root (unless you preserve it) but you definitely lose wp off

You don't need to downgrade of you are on 19.5.3. You just need to run motopie then motowpnomo.
You can't unlock the bootloader unless you have a code or a developer edition.
No recovery or rom needed.
Root-wp off- Root survival mode in supersu- update to 19.6.3 then stay there unless you want to update to 4.4.4 to address the tmobile lte issue
Then the sequence would be Root-wp off- Supersu survival-update to 19.6.3- supersu survival-update 4.4.4

I just picked up my HTC one m8 verizon yesterday and the firmware is 4.4.4
I downloaded weaksauce but kept getting an error saying root failed.
I went ahead and downloaded sunshine but I after I clicked temp root, sunshine crashed and said sunshine is not responding.
Any ideas?
I just want to install xposed
I figured it out and sunshine is installed. But when I go to download supersu it tells me that there are no binaries installed and it can't install them itself
Read the entire thread linked below. I'm waiting too. Please don't bug the developers. They have stated they will release 3.0 as soon as they can. Bummer, but that's just the way things are. Between Weaksauce2 and Sunshine 2.8.4 you should be able to at least get TempRoot. That will give some more functionality.

It's supposed to check first and only prompt you to pay if it will work. If it told you it will work, prompted you to pay, you paid, and it didn't work then I would contact them. I think they're on iirc but their website definitely has "contact us" info.
Hi everyone,
I am new to android mods. I just bought a used vzw M8 running 4.4.4. I unlocked and got S off using sunshine. Rooted with WS2, and verified. Installed SuperSU. Stock otherwise. I have installed the SDK on my laptop. I can't get any devices to show up when i use the adb devices command.
I am trying to figure out how to disable the OTA for Lollipop. Does anyone know if the OTA will re-lock or bypass my root? Can you help me disable if it is an issue?
Eventually, I'd like to go to a different (cleaned up) ROM and 5.X, but i need to make sure the evil red monster doesn't mess up my work first. I have spent several hours searching the forums, and have made some progress. If there are any detailed posts to point me to, I'd appreciate any and all help.
Thank you,
Dustin
Did you install the HTC drivers? If not install HTC sync manager (I think that's the name) and it'll install them for u then u can uninstall HTC sync manager and you should get adb to recognize your device. Ota will not relock your device. It will take off root tho. But you can just flash custom recovery and flash su in there. I'd suggest since your s off to flash dottats s off 5.0.1 ruu over in the development section once you get adb working. It is also pre rooted and will get up and running on lollipop.

On 4.4.3 and over sunshine will s off and unlock bootloader together, but its a 50/50 chance. I personally used firewater and weaksauce but I was on 4.4.2 when I did it but VZW closed that exploit in 4.4.3.

Hey everyone,
So I found online that the AT&T update to Marshmellow started on 2-8-16. I haven't been able to find anything officially from AT&T but apperently the version is H81020n and its 971 MB. Has anyone gotten the update yet?
Just saw this thread and figured I'd check. Went into the update center and notification popped up for new 950mb update. Must be it cause I was already on 10o. Didn't even have to use LG Bridge like the other carrier guys were doing.
Will post back with an update once completed

I would have done this but didn't even think about it when I saw the update come through. Was happy to finally be getting 6.0
Hopefully somebody else can help you with that.
I fell asleep during the update process but just finished running the Debloater tool and getting rid of all the att/lg junk! So far so good. Will be keeping an eye on battery life over the next couple days.

Debloater does not need root as long as you are running KitKat or newer :good:. Without root it just freezes/disables the apps instead of completely removing them.
edit : these are the apps i block using debloater without losing any functionality i need : http://pastebin.com/d64Vydmy

So, and I apologize if this is a stupid question, will Chainfire's advances in the systemless SuperSU help us when it comes to rooting Marshmallow on our H810?
can we update AT&T phone OTA outside the US without at&t sim card???

not possible. you can't modify the system files and boot without a modified kernel. We don't have an unlocked bootloader, so no kernels, thus no root.
if you root MM your phone will just loop without the custom kernel.

so the file it downloaded isn't a zip... it's just 'dlpkgfile'
7zip can open it but there's a similar file inside and that one can't be opened.... dunno.

That's the missing piece I needed to understand. Thanks! Sucks, but thanks! :highfive:
got it! looks good to me - so far...
I upgraded early yesterday morning and my phone has been hot almost all the time!! The battery life is way worse than prior to the upgrade. I have cleaned out all my junk files and cache rebooted and recharged a few times. Also optimized my apps a few times. I just picked up my phone after 2 hours of no use and it was warm and the battery is draining at a faster rate than with Lollipop... Anybody else experiencing this?
Awesome, glad the update is out....I haven't done the update just yet...waiting to see if we hear anything about root. I'm wondering if we are still able to downgrade via TOT method if need be...if that's the case then i'll update ASAP. I actually have heard that there are some battery issues with the update, but again I'm not on 6.0 yet so I can't tell you from my experience.
2 questions

Also can I just unistall SuperSU and update or do I need to wait tell I'm home and flash a clean image

No root.
I've never managed to update w/o flashing the unrooted version of whatever rooted version I'm running. If there's an easier way, I'm not aware of it.
