I unlocked the phone using rumrunner, and then loaded cwm recovery. I then installed the superuser, and it appears to succeed. Then I checked root with root checker and it said sorry you don't have proper root. I have checked my steps again and again, but am still pretty new to htc.

are you s-off?
what version of SuperSu did you flash? What Rom are you running? The latest SuperSU 1.94? Doesn't work for 4.2.2. If your S-off why and have CWM recovery why not flash a custom rom?
I am trying to do just that. I can't really find any up to date info to help me step by step, so I am piecing together the newest info I can find. I am a little confused right now. Stuck on trying to root. I flashed superuser-3.1.3-arm-signed.zip

If you used runrunner. Then you're s-off and unlocked. Just flash a Rom

Do I need to root to load a custom rom? Is s-off =root on htc? I guess I have deleted everything off the phone and now it is stuck at the white htc screen. I can get to recovery but did not perform any backups. I can get to bootloader and recovery and I guess need to sideload a rom. I haven't had time the last few days to try anything new. Thanks for the input, I need to fix my dna so I can get off of this note 2 I don't like. I don't understand why htc doesn't sell better.... my dna was the **** before I ruined it!
S-off is secure flag removed meaning you can install unsigned firmware (eng hboot) unlocked means you can write to system partition and other secure partitions. Root means you have an app (like supersu) able to have other apps execute admin (root for Linux) commands. If you have cwm installed, just side load a pre rooted Rom from development sections.

Thanks, I will try the sideload. Any ideas where I can find such a rom. Oh wait I think I s-on ed trying to fix it.... will I still be able to fast boot USB and unlock again for s-off? I sure hope so.

so for some reason I am unable to get su to work on htc (went official unlock), was able to get CWM installed but can't get su privileges? Wondering if there is a way to do it since for some reason it's not letting me flash it.
--- it randomly worked on my 5th try....
Htc only unlocks gives you security off you still have to root... go into the dev section and their is a guide in their !!
It doesn't give you s-off it unlocks the bootloader and gives you access. I am very surprised he got the recovery installed he would be the first.
Will the unlocked bootloader allow you to downgrade back to 1.40?

What is the easiest way to root a stock Rezound with the latest ICS OTA? I'm not looking for custom ROM, simply root.
You still have to unlock the bootloader, flash a custom recovery and then flash supersu.

OK, so how would i do that, I'm seen some toolkit out there but it doesn't seem they have been modded for use with the latest OTA. I want root so I can wifi tether
I would start here:
http://htcdev.com/bootloader
Then flash this (v3.15):
Download it rename it PH98IMG.zip and place it on the root of your SDCard.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1339679
Then flash the attached in recovery.. thats it.
http://androidforums.com/rezound-al...ys-noob-friendly-root-guide-start-finish.html
I don't know why there isn't a thread here for installing a temporary recovery then rooting as Scotty is on XDA too. I was HTVdev unlocked already, took the ICS OTA and then follwed Scotty's instructions for installing a temporaty recovery then rooting. Couldn't be any easier and the custom recovery is only there till you close adb then its gone. Much better option than permanently installing a custom recovery if you don't want one in the first place.

Super, works like a champ, the one change was set the phone to Rezound ICS, not Nexus
Once again, thanks to all the cumulative knowledge on this forum.
This is a useful thread guys - thanks to those of you helping those newer to rooting. If we follow these instructions, not bring rooted right now, do I have to wipe and reinstall all apps? I obviously can't run titanium backup without root. Thanks

You don't have to wipe all the apps, that will happen as you go through the root process. Since you can't use Titanium right now, what I did is write down the apps I had so I remembered to reinstall them. I bit of a pain but this way I didn't miss any.
Hey guys I have a note ii but one of my friends has an HTC One and she's having some trouble and I am unfamiliar with HTC stuff and need some help. She rooted and unlocked and has TWRP installed. I've tried flashing Roms thru TWRP and I can only get a stock build to flash sucessfully and even that failed on the first try but when I try to flash clean ROM it always fails and won't work. Any ideas what's going on? Thanks

Possibly an outdated twrp recovery. Try installing the newest version and see how that goes.
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app
What all are you wiping in twrp? What rom are you trying to flash? Maybe she needs s-off?
Sent from my HTC One
Is her one S-off? If not, I believe you'll need to flash the bootIMG/kernel seperately thru fastboot . I'm guessing cuz I have HTC Evo LTE and it's the sane way if you're not S-off.
If you're unfamiliar, I bet there's guides stickied in general or Q&A.
Good luck.

I wipe everything when I do it. I've been rooting for a long time now and I'm pretty good but I've never owned an HTC device so I'm not sure how to check if she has s-off but she is rooted. I was able to flash a bone stock 4.3 ROM but I couldn't get clean ROM to flash

You Do NOT need s-off to flash any current ROM's on the one. And you don't have to flash kernels separately like on older htc phones, so don't worry about that.
Honestly I really don't see why your having trouble with clean rom... What exactly is it doing when you try to flash it?

The Rom is what I was wanting tried to Return stock and got stuck tampered but with root. Moonshine will not work cause I think something is missing now. Keeps losing connection. Figured if I could flash the 2.06 full rom .zip it may get me to where I could Moonshine again.

Flash superuser in recovery.
Sent from my EVO using XDA Free mobile app
As mentioned, superuser would do the trick. SuperSU is another option out there too. I'd download both just in case you have issues. Most roms work well with both, but some roms (under 10% I'd guess) play nicer with one than the other.

If that doesn't work, try an older version from the SuperSU thread here. Seems I recall someone else having issues flashing the latest SuperSU to their phone, but an older version worked fine, for whatever reason.

Can you give more info about your phone? ROM (really only need to know if you're on new partitions), method of unlock & S-off, versions of HBOOT & TWRP or other recovery? I've had issues flashing .zips with certain HBOOT/TWRP combinations even while being HTC-dev unlock and firewater S-off, which is (according to others more competent than I) the ideal unlock/s-off combo.
