Currently... no.
I've tried the RUU and a PG38IMG.zip, and neither worked. So, not likely, at the moment.
So what is the best advice? Should I take the latest OTA first before S-OFF and recovery? Or should I do the S-OFF, then recovery and radios all manually?
Either way you'll be fine. All of HTC's current OTA's are supported.
Appreciate my help? Thank me
most ROMs will include the latest OTA... i would just flash one of those.

That wouldn't cover the radios though... I think those are covered in the real OTA.
I took the latest OTA before obtaining full root. Works just fine.
I'm looking to root my phone later. Is it safe to apply the OTA update that they will push us to do on the 23rd?
Do not accept OTAs.
Always. No exceptions.
Live by this rule and you will have the best chance at getting root and no chance of losing. Period.

I would always wait to see if the dev's post that its safe to. I updated my EVo when it first came out and never could get root after that. Now that i have the EVO3d and root. I never updated untill i got the update from a dev.
So i would say no.
+ 10000! The hboot 1.50 that comes with the OTA closes the exploit that was used to gain root.
Why not root now and just flash the stock ROM with the updates included? On this last update, Devs had it ready to flash for root users (minus the hboot) before I even got notification of the update on my phone.

As someone else mentioned root now and then flash a rooted version of the OTA. OR if you update now without root you can always root via HTC method later. Either way you root itll void your warranty.
Don NOT ACCEPT any OTA UNLESS you have S-Off.
with S-Off you can still save yourself if you flash an OTA, i would S-off and Root your device now then apply the ODEX 2.3.4 that's already been posted in the forum.
Their is no guarantee that 2.3.4 will be rooted soon

What he said ^^
Closed thread.
I just updated to the latest software release, and I wanted to know if it can be rooted? He's my info:
HTC One M7
T-Mobile
Android 4.4.2
Sense 6.0
Software 5.14. 531.1
Main reason I want to root is to get tethering to work. After this update, EasyTether stopped working and it doesn't look like there is a solution in the near future. So ultimately, getting tethering to work is my main goal, here.

Thanks for the links! Only reason I'm confused is that, I always understood that the root process depends on the software version you are running... Is that no longer the case or something? I just really don't want to mess anything up...

I am currently running your version just rooted. I have root, custom recovery and stock rom. I think you may be referring to S-OFF, and the methods to achieve S-OFF has been somewhat hboot version dependent. My understanding there are now methods to achieve S-OFF even if your hboot is 1.5X. Whatever you decide, please read the threads/instructions completely and understand what you are doing each step of the way. Also, check the HTC One thread because the procedures for your phone are pretty much the same as Developers Edition and International phones.
Great, thanks. One last thing... Have you gotten tethering to work? That's the only reason I'm considering this.

The mobile hot spot works just fine here. I am having issues with bluetooth drivers on my computer so I can not check it. The phone comes up alright and it is waiting on the computer. If I can resolve the issues I'll let you know.
Using Wifi Tether, or what?
