I was able to mount sd with twrp and was then able to write to it.
My question for you is how in the heck did you get root?

---

When u flash twrp, it asks u if u want to install the supersu in order to get rooted. Say yes

SuperSU installed but it was not complete. It required me to flash a zip or go to the play store. I flashed the app and it appears to be working with the exception of s-off which is why I have been attempting to run rumrunner w/o luck

---

What error msg do u get when u try to run rumrunner?

ERROR: run rumrunner again and READ (no adb connection to device. Debugging on? Drivers?)
But I do have the connection, I can see devices and run adb commands.

U have a chance to get s-off but dont know why theres an issue with the adb connection

twrp 2.8.0.1 does not seem to be working either and a user told me that s-off was a different procedure so I am now trying rumrunner.
I really do not care I just want s-off

Sounds like both superSU and rumrunner are having a problem setting s-off permission. Unlocked. Do I need to do a factory reset? Re do the Htcdev unlock? or??

No u r rooted and can run rumrunner. If twrp 2.8.0.1 is no good then flash 2.7.1.1

i use unlock bootloader from htcdev, custom flash recovery TWRP 2.7.1.1 and flash supersu zip.
when i check use root checker it's already have root access
maybe the problem is at S-On
when i try to mount external sd at Titanium backup and folder mount i can't get permission at external sd.
if i wanna made back up platform xml it in same folder at system/etc/permission?

Not necessary but if u want to. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jrummy.sdfix&hl=en i used this app and it worked. It will make a backup of the platform.xml file for u

just copy and paste from https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B-0MK7r6HDbzWmtTN2FYNTc3UEk/edit
use this tutorial http://forum.xda-developers.com/desire-816/general/htc-816-how-to-modify-platform-xml-file-t2812543
1. Copy your modify-platform-xml-file to sd card
2. Rebooted to twrp recovery
3. Using mount option mounted system & sd card
4. Using advanced option, file manager renamed the original platform.xml to platform.xml.backup
5. Copied the platform.xml from sdcard to system location
6. Using chmod i changed the permission to 644
7. Reboot system
