If you are using Amon Ra recovery all you need to do is boot to recovery and use the superuser installation in the developers menu.
that didnt work. i install it... reboot and go to super user and try to update the bu or whatever and it says root fails.
I rooted the same way I did in GB.

ill try it again by re installed the leak completely. do you kno how to TEMP install a custom recovery so i can keep stock and recieve ota updates?
Try flashing the full SU located here
http://androidsu.com/superuser/
Then from the Play store, install Busybox installer and get the latest.
Regarding recovery, flash AmonRA 3.15 in fastboot with unlocked bootloader. "fastboot flash recovery **filename**.img" Your HBOOT will show **TAMPERED** but that is normal.
You can flash this in recovery

No need to rename, put onto root of SD card and then use the 'flash zip' options within AmonRA...or whatever custom recovery you have.
Disregard, I didn't see the last post on here.
Did not work. Any other ideas?
Does anyone know if gaining root access can be done after bootloader is unlocked. I don't have a working internet connection to follow through with regawmod. All help would be greatly appreciated. I have tried one click root also, but that doesn't seem to install supersu or su binary... Also for the record I had downloaded the zip file for twrp, but it said older device or something like that. Please help!

If you are unlocked and have recovery then why not just install a custom rom?
You could flash recovery thru goomanger and then flash the Su zip or a rooted Rom.
I'm not positive, bit that should work
Edit.....forgot goomanager needs root privileges

I use the stock rom with root access. I was able to achieve SU access with this guide.
http://htcevohacks.com/htc-evo-4g-l...tc-evo-4g-lte-unlock-bootloadertwrp-recovery/
You already have the bottloader unlocked you just downloads the files at the beginnning and proceed to step 22, after you flash the SU package, you can update SU in the play store and download goo mananger to bring to bring you to the last TWRP
Thanks guys, didn't even think about flashing a rooted rom lol...For some reason I thought I would get error flashing a rom without root access.

motochopper would work. I don't have time to write it up, but you could use revone to unlock/s-off then use motochopper to root. Once you have root you could use Rom Manager or Goo to install a recovery.

Hello,
I am fairly sure you need root to use revone to S-off you device.
If you are able to get you bootloader unlocked(this you need a computer, maybe a library or school). You can use an app(link below) to flash a custom recovery to your phone then flash a root tool zip(link below) and give yourself root. You just have to get your bootloader unlocked.

That's a negative ghostrider. You can revone a virgin phone. It's my root process so I don't have to HTCDev unlock.
1. revone
2. install recovery
3. profit

Hello,
I'm not too sure what kind of file it is, but it isn't an app. I would probably say it is some type of bin file(could be totally wrong). I think your best bet to get root is google revone then read about it.
If you don't own a computer your find a public computer you can get adb and fastboot working on and use revone to unlock your phone. Then use fastboot to install a new recovery.
After all that you can get root, but the bottom line is you need a computer with adb and fastboot.
Hope that helps.

You say you're in college!?! There should be computers on campus, at the library, or a friend even. Download the files you need onto your phone, take a data cable with you and bam. Should not take more that 10 min.
WeakSauce and Firewater have been patched on the latest HTC builds, the current solution is SunShine http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2792487
WeakSauce is an exploit for some HTC devices. It will not work on all HTC devices, if it crashes or doesn't make su available, then it isn't compatible at this time, and I have no interest in adding compatibilitiy. At the time of release, I confirmed that it was compatible with the HTC One m7 & m7 on Verizon. Those are the only two officially supported devices. Yes it will work on other phones, and is worth a try. It will also crash on many, and some it will appear to work and won't. I am not fixing this at this time.
Since this app is just so easy to use, and I am tired of off topic posts, I am closing the thread. If you can not figure out how to use it, ask elsewhere.
This app may not be redistributed, integrated in a toolkit or script, or sold in any way.
It gains root, mounts a new xbin containing busybox, and su. While it is designed for the Verizon HTC One m7 and m8, it will work on other HTC devices as well. It is a crapshoot depending on both model, and sometimes on firmware version. This exploit will re-root your device each boot. You only have write access to /system/xbin with this exploit.
Donations for this project can be sent to -> [email protected]
Credits:
vuln - jcase
exploit - jcase & beaups
icon - mattlgroff
Dr_Drache - lots of testing
Installation:
Install the WeakSauce app, run it hit agree.
Then install SuperSu from the market https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=eu.chainfire.supersu
On boot (well about 30 seconds after full boot), WeakSauce will re-root your device.
Unroot:
Uninstall app, uninstall SuperSu do a hard reboot (adb reboot)
Update:
Uninstall app, Uninstall SuperSu, do a hard reboot (adb reboot), reinstall app, re-root, reinstall SuperSu app.
Trouble shooting:
Uninstall WeakSauce
Uninstall SuperSu app
do a hard reboot (adb reboot)
reinstall WeakSauce
re run WeakSauce
reinstall SuperSu app
then ask for help on XDA (This means don't email me for help on this topic).
ChangeLog
1.0.1
Fixed supersu updating
Updated supersu su binary
Fixed replacing xbin at boot
Added more compatibility for older models
S-Off:
Gain root with weaksauce
use firewater (http://firewater-soff.com/)
uninstall weaksauce
flash custom recovery
flash supersu or superuser
This app may not be redistributed, integerated in a toolkil or script, or sold in any way.

kinda weird all these toolboxes worked before, now its just sunshine pay unlock, rumrunner no longer is functional, squabbis don't seem to work, 2.0 or 1.1 and pwn stars uses mainly htcdev for the bootloader but blocks the Verizon variant possibly others. I give up its down the road with the htc max nexus 6p and the NRT works the best ive seen from a dev. All you guys are some seriously smart people and much respect.

Ok I have a unlocked bootloader from HTC dev and that's it does any of your files come with bootloader unlocking that I will redo the stuff I'm already doing on my phone and cause stuff to mess up? Because I can follow directions on your instructions by my self I just want to know am I good so far??
Ok so I've been tampering a little with my hotspot.....turns out it doesn't work. The phone's not rooted so I was trying to use it legitimately. Well now, since there's hotspot tethering with rooted access, I was wondering what preparations were needed to gain root access.
Phone's hardware:
hboot: 2.28
Android Version: 4.0.3
Software #: 4.05.605.14710RD
I previously updated it a looong time ago when ICS came out in 2012. so I don't know much about how the rooting process has changed for the resound, or if there is any root access with ICS.
Anything at this point helps, I wasted 30 dollars just to find out it doesn't work so... Even if a factory reset would do the trick, I would still like to know about how to root it on ICS.

1. Unlock the bootloader via HTC dev. htcdev.com
2. Flash a recovery, TWRP, CWM, PhilZ. Whatever your choice may be
3. Find a root zip from online, probably from Chainfire.
4. Flash it in recovery.
If you need a step by step guide I can provide that either through this post or through PM

It's a zip which contains the files for root.. TWRP if I'm right.. Will actually ask you if you would like to root before you reboot from it the first time..

You can try Framaroot or Towelroot, but I can't confirm they work.
