HTC one m8 (eye) - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I am trying to root my htc one m8 (eye) device. But I'm stuck.
I unlocked the bootloader successfully.
Everything went well, I flashed twrp recovery too. Downloaded UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.46.zip from
Here is the problem, I went to recovery and installed the SuperSu package, it says it is successfully installed but when i reboot my device and open SupreSu app, it says "Root undetected".
Can anyone please help me out here.
Andriod version - 6.0.1
Htc sense version - 7.0

Try uninstalling SuperSU and prefer Magisk.

[HELP] Installing TWRP Boot - Recovery failed

Hey, can anyone help me. I just wanna install current twrp version cause its necessary for an Android 4.4.4 custom rom. When i rooted my phone today and installed twrp 2.5.0.1 and Android 4.2.2 CynaogenMod 10.1 all worked fine. Found out this version is to old to run Android 4.4.4 installation so I tried to update to newest trwp version and getting an error now. When i go to pink screen on phone and execute fastboot flash recovery i get the report "waiting for device". googled this and google says "driver is not installed" when having this issue. Wanted to reinstall the "Huawei_usb_driver_2.0.6.601" driver on Windows 8.1 but there is no uninstall.exe. How to reinstall this driver or what i need to do to fix this issue? Unfortunately flashing worked before....
Also tried to run GooManager but it didnt find any new version of twrp.

[Q] system is write protected

I'm trying to convert my at&t one m7 (running sense 6, android 4.4.2) to a google play edition. I've got S-off (via sunshine), root with supersu installed as a system app. (verified with root checker). Bootloader is unlocked (I have tampered message) and CWM touch installed. I've flashed Elemental X which says it disables HTC's write protection to system. I find myself unable to flash any rom. It can't mount system. I can't even fully wipe/factory reset with cwm since I don't have access. Everything I can find tells me that flashing an insecure kernel will give me access but I have no luck after flashing elemental x (also tried bulletproof). Any help would be appreciated.

You could try the latest TWRP. If you are going the GPe route have you changed your CID & MID? Have you looked at this site: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2358781

xt1524 root on new 6.0 update

hi, i recived the 6.0 update OTA today
my phone was on 5.0.2, bootloader unlocked, supersu rooted
using supersu option i removed the root, this to be able to install OTA (leaving supersu result in "update error")
updated to 6.0 succesfully
downloaded lastest stable supersu v2.65
downloaded twrp-surnia-3.0.2-r1
booted twrp without flashing (i don't want to install twrp) do this way in 5.0 and 5.0.2 adn worked
flashed supersu
phone stay at "warning screen"
to restore the phone i downoaded the 6.0 zip and flasched back the "sparsechunk.x" files
how to get the root back again in 6.0??
thanks.
exactly the same here, even with supesu 2.71 beta
You have to install the superSU v2.62-3 (it installs systemless mode) OR in the terminal of the TWRP enter "echo SYSTEMLESS=true>>/data/.supersu" (without the quotes) and then flash the version you want, in order to force the systemless install. I still recommend just use v2.62-3.
Supersu zip v2.62-3 and try: http://download.chainfire.eu/751/Sup...1211162651.zip
thinks @basili
I finally managed
That worked for me too
how
thanks it worked fo rme too
simply install TWRP 3.0.2r1 then supersu.2.62.3
I have a question. I installed the SuperSU 2.62.3 like its recommended in post #3, but Google Play shows that there is an update. Can I update it safely now?
i have my bootloader unlocked and everything ive followed every detail and it said flashed recovery was successful but how do i access twrp im only getting stock recovery plz any advice will be greatly appreciated thx in advance for your help

Moto Z RETUS Unlocked (and unlocked Bootloader) - MM (6.01)

I am on MPL24.246.20 (i know its old, but I cannot find a later one for MM for X1650-03).
Anyway, after I unlocked the bootloader, I booted TWRP to back everything up - that worked great.
My next step will be to flash TWRP and then I want to root it.
It seems like all these threads have instructions to root N, but I prefer to stay on MM for now .
Which Root should I flash and what about the kernel? - can I just flash root or does the kernel need to be updated also?
Any help are highly appreciated, thanks.
Update:
I got it to work. I flashed TWRP from Fastboot and then installed SU. ON my third attempt I was successful and discovered that Chainfire's SuperSU from the play-store is not working (it did install but immediately told me to update the code - that process failed). I rebooted, re-installed SU from TWRP and then went back into playstore and download phh's superuser. That seems to work just fine.
SU requests are being satisfied and I'm a happy camper with MM on MotoZ.
Thanks.

Rooting Asus Zenfone 4 Z01KD/ZE554KL 7.1.1 - Unlocked, TWRP installed, can't root?

Hey I just picked up this phone and decided I would like to maximize it to its fullest potential, and root it as I have done with previous phones. This ones giving me a hard time, and I just can't seem to find the proper info for it.
I have unlocked the bootloader, flashed TWRP 3.1.1 and want to gain root access. I have followed several guides, used every possible one-click unsuccessfully, and tried installing SuperSU with TWRP. After I reboot, SuperSU is installed. I'll open it up and it tells me the binaries are occupied. I've tried downgrading and updating the binaries but I get errors. (I believe this is because it must be rooted first - of course.)
So I'm stuck unable to get any further. If anyone has any suggestions, I would appreciate it. Is this phone with this configuration unrootable? There must be a way if I have recovery right?
Asus Zenfone 4 Z01KD/ZE554KL
Android Nougat 7.1.1 - 14.1060.1708.63 (NOT 1708.70)
TWRP 3.1.1 installed
One thing I have not tried is using Magisk. When I try it, it stops because I already patched with SuperSU (even though it failed). I never backed up before I did it with SuperSU I really thought it would work.
I read of people doing it with Magisk after updating to Oreo. I want to give that a try but I can't OTA or flash from TWRP. All attempts result in error 7.
I can't find a stock recovery to flash to do the update either. Is there a way to undo this, OTA and repatch with Magisk? Even if I don't bother updating, I would like to find a stock image to flash so I can try patching with Magisk.
Stock rom recovery.img anywhere? Am I alone?
i dont own this device but i read this and it might apply to you. also did you flash the supersu uninstaller and them try magisk?
