[Root] HTC A9 - HTC One A9

This method is now depreciated, please see the A9 TWRP thread.
If you appreciate this, please considering donating to Chainfire, and either donating to beaups and myself at [email protected] or purchasing a copy of our SunShine s-off application, which we hope to bring support to the A9 with soon from http://theroot.ninja

Now One A9 is buy-able!

I'll be buying a second one, to replace my nexus 5x with, I'm really enjoying the feel of it

I really agree with you on this being and looking better than the Nexus 5X, thanks for Root.

Nice, so the A9 will be supported by Sunshine in the future? Great job!

Hey Jcase thank u for this nice thread..
My question is my device is 1.10.401.7 and i need to root it by your thread so :
-First i need to unkock the bootloader
- download the supersu or superuser and reboot "adb reboot download" and get acces to option and then flash the su zip ?
I'm right ?

Randomly came across this thread. JEEZ, THAT WAS QUICK!!!
Great job JCase!
"S-OFF" brings nostalgia straight away, remind me of Desire

Great work. This thing gets soff I'll buy it. Good to see early development.

I also have Sprint. I should be able to flash the "recovery" image (not the boot) that you provided and then backup the boot partition from recovery correct?
Also, can your boot image (the one you would make for Sprint) work WITH encryption? I just spent the entire weekend setting up my device and do NOT want to reset to factory.

Should be possible BUT I wouldnt recommend it. The rom isnt perfect and that's probably also the reason why HTC didnt release it yet. Wait for official OTA release or flash any rooted version of the RUU so you'll be on the safe side.

be happy that others didn't thought like this or you wouldn't had your current rom to play with.
warning..
It seems that with the ENG HBOOT the rom can't boot (just tested it)
Maybe they did change something (the HBOOT included in the rom is version 2.0 so maybe there's something different in the boot process)
I have to investigate further.

I still don't get why this is happening. Did HTC send a letter to all the devs saying: "Hey guys so yeah it's cool if you make roms based on this but DON'T DISTRIBUTE THE BASE"?

Hi !
The downgrade method works with it too ? Because if an official ROM flashed the S-OFF state going to be S-ON. I'm thinking to try this ROM, but I don't want to stuck with it.
Does the USB Disk Drive mode working properly ?
Thanks !

This is mainly for Developer use.
All of the system /apps /priv-apps are stock odexed.
I also have not removed any of the .apks, everything is included as it was pulled.
I tried to pull the boot.img but was un-successful - if you have any hint to help me pull it - that would be highly appreciated.

To pool boot.img you need to be unlocked with custom recovery or root access.
adb shell
cat /proc/emmc
look for "boot" partition (could be mmcblk0p42)
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p42 of=/data/media/0/boot.img
exit

Were lucky yesterday with my 401, as I got an ota, allowed me to get boot.img immediately, was it the same for you? Might be worth catching someone before you update so you can get those same files.

Then it's quite impossible to get boot.img from inside the device. You need to haunt for OTA.
For those requesting to download, I accept them almost instantly when I receive the request. so try again after 5 minutes. I will upload to AFH this afternoon Thanks!

I have ported roms in the past to Kindle Fire HD from the Nexus tabs. It's way easier to port than to build a rom from scratch. The tricky part is finding the easiest roms to work with.
Well I can't do either.
Wouldn't we want to get something on here other than stock?
I'll take a port! Lol

Well I would think that you would need a working custom recovery with external SD card support first. Though the big feature I am looking forward to is a kernel that supports Roehsoft Ram Expander (swap) which while it works fine on my S3 does not work at all on the Tab 4 7.0.

There is a fully working recovery with SDcard read/write support as mentioned in THIS post.
What I did was downloaded the TWRP 2.8.0.1 .img for t230 then flashed it over the older non-working TWRP using #Rashr. It works for me on SM-T230NU and wipe works. Dalvik/Cache, everything.

I resstored the device in odin to the latest factory firmware then flashed the twrp in odin, rebooted directly to recovery and flashed supersu. Rebooted to system, set up all my stuff and flashed the new twrp over the old twrp using rashr. I had to reboot once to set up rashr before i could flash but, it all worked perfectly for me

cant start over if it wont turn on at all and i believe the battery is dead and it wont charge.
ive read about this issue with other galaxy tabs (2,3) and i need to open up and disconnect battery, i will try this when i get home. i hope it does something after. i just got this thing.
i cant just flash the good twrp instead of one over the other?

Above you it says "works on s rom" that rom is a sense 7 Android 6 MM rom. So my guess is yes.
But on the other hand it's not that hard to try out yourself. Creating a nandroid backup and flash the zip, checking the outcome takes less time than the 13 hours between your posts.
Why is it always someone else who has to confirm if it works or not, you can be that person too !
Cheers

Yea sorry didn't try it out myself and check. I will. But you know, S ROM is based on the GPE , that's why kernels like elementalx GPE versions work. So technically it should work on S ROM. Anyway will try it on sense and report back.

Does anyone know how to Root Samsung Galaxy J7 (J700P)?

I see other threads for J700F/H/M etc.. But nothing for the J700P.
Same here. I need the root to disable the hotspot limit. But it doesn't seem like the J700P is recieving much attention.
