I am now able to run CyanogenMod 12 on my HTC One M8 however apart from Coolify, all other root apps on my phone indicate that I don't have root access or that I'm not properly rooted, what should I do?
Hi sam,
How do you get cm12 on your m8?
Do you flash with recovery ?
If so, download su.zip from chainfire and flash it in your recovery.
If you dont have a recovery anymore write here and we try to flash a new one.

Dear all,
I am very new to android. I want to change better ROM for my HTC one s.
I have my S3 HTC one rooted with superboot following the below post from paulobrien
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1577831
I have installed Goomanager and TWRP recovery.
I want to flash the TrickDroid Rom as follows:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1637102
As tell from the heading, it's compatible for S3 ?
But when I scan the Q & A section, it says "Do not use this ROM if you have an S3 processor based One S"
I m a bit confused for which ROMs are compatible for S3.
It also says " Relying on TWRP to flash the boot.img is not reliable. Please use the Boot_flash_script to flash the boot.img or do it yourself in fastboot. Having an incompatible boot.img is the common reason for being stuck at the boot logo.?
I have stupidly tried to flash it with the boot_flash_Script and it stuck at the boot logo.
is there any compatible boot.img specially for s3 processor which can run for the TrickDroid?
1. If the ROM is compatible with s3, how can I flash it ( I m just a newbie, really need those step by step guides)
2. are there any ROMs which are compatible with s3
3. is there any better method to root from phone in such a way that my phone will be compatible with most of the ROM [stupid enough]
4. anyone having the same case with me? [s3, root by superboot, Goomanager and TWRP]
5. I have flashed it with the boot.img from TrickDroid thread and it was stuck in the htc boot logo, fortunately i was able to boot it by superboot (from paulobrien). But then I cannot use switch on my wifi connection and I need to use superboot (through my computer) to boot my phone otherwise it just stuck at the htc logo.
Is there any method that I can restore my phone (restore to the situation before I flashed the TrickDroid) ?
Sorry, I should have posted this questions under the Trickdroid thread...but i m just too new to post in the development page.
All,
I have just bought a 'new to me' Rogers HTC One X. It already had JB 4.1.1 installed.
I managed to unlock the bootloader via htcdev without issue and managed to flash TWRP 2.3.3 installed via Hasoon2000's tool however it is unusable because the touchscreen doesn't work within it. Is there a work around for this?
I also cannot root the device through the various one-click approaches listed here.
Any help you can offer on rooting it and getting a recovery manager working would be appreciated.
If you need any details from me (various version numbers, etc.) please let me know. I've been out of the Android world for a while so you may need to tell me where to look.
Cheers!
SOLVED
In case others run into this I was able to flash TWRP 2.4.0.0 to the device - touch screen within recovery now works. Once that was done everything was gold: Flashed SU, Viper, and the Viper boot loop fix.
As you have found, root using one-clicks or Hasoon2000's toolkit is not needed on any version except the AT&T variant.
For all other variants (besides AT&T) just unlock bootloader, install TWRP, and flash SU or a rooted ROM.
The problem was the version of TWRP it pushed. I could never flash anything until I updated it so touch worked again.

Hello there, I have a HTC Desire 600 Dual, I rooted it, Dev unlocked, installed Clockwork touch recovery, Couldn't get S-OFF, couldn't install BusyBox, some ****ty errors appear, and can't install SuperUser higher than v1.02, other ones just don't work, cuz of ****ty root I think.
So the main problem I have is that there is a update for the phone, when I donwload and try to install it from Clockwork recovery I get error massage, I think the problem is that the update phone is trying to install doesn't communicate well with custom recovery. So I want to flash Stock recovery to it, install the update and then reflash custom recovery. So I need a stock recovery image... please help
P.S. If you can help me with S-OFF, BusyBox and SuperSU, I'll be glad to hear you :good:
