Everytime I try to install busybox it would say try again later, or it would say that i dont have proper root or something like that
Hi there,
Here is a similar thread....see the last post, it links to a thread about write protection on the system partition. I believe that's your issue. If you have issues, please register an account on XDA and ask in the thread below, instead of starting a new one on same subject.

And the thread about write protection....
>*HTC One (M8)*>*One (M8) Original Android Development*>*[MOD][KERNEL MODULE] wp_mod: disable system write protection
Please read read read before altering anything on your phone tho.
Good luck

First, a screenshot of the issue:
Here's what I've attempted so far:
- Re-rooted
- Re-locked bootloader
- Factory Reset system (twice+ over)
- Cleared data cache

You should try a different version of busybox and see if it helps. In any case, you need to ask your queries in the HTC One M7 Help Section over here:
> HTC One > One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting > So you came at XDA-Developers to find help? (Beginners Thread)
Or create a new thread in the Help section:
> HTC One > One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
This is my first time using XDA developers, or any type of forum to be honest, so please do tolerate my very bad knowledge of the terminology and concepts behind almost everything I've seen on the forum so far. Also, don't roast me if this in the wrong section, I'm a major noob :silly::silly:
B, Anyways,
I have an HTC One M8 32 GB from Verizon that is GSM unlocked and unrooted. The phone is running android 4.4.2, so I went to the settings to try and do a software update, but that option is greyed out and says "Update only works in CDMA mode". And then I found this link, not sure if it helps, but can anyone help me as to how I can update my phone? Thanks "

Thanks for your help, however I just have two questions.
The first one is do I need to have rooted phone in order to run an RUU?
Also, the thread you posted seems to be for stock android, which does not include the HTC Sense UI that is included in the RUU of the thread I posted?

AFAIK root is not needed. But IDK about SenseUI.
Please ask in the Q&A thread or forum I linked in my previous answer.
Thanks for your understanding. Thread closed.

Hello. I recently bought my first android device, the HTC one m7. So I read about rooting and stuff, but everything either didn't work or is too complicated. I have an HTC One M7 6500L, unlocked from eBay. It is running Lollipop. So can anyone give me a detailed guide for rooting a Verizon HTC One to a person with his first Android device? Thanks.
