I have a Cricket HTC ONE SV with Android 4.2.2 and have HTC Dev unlocked the boot loader.

I need to find a way to root the device. I have tried a few custom recoveries to only get entering recovery...
So i used an ruu for 4.2.2 and relocked the phone to run it...
Then after that I unlocked the boot loader again...

Custom recovery (twrp) 4.2.2

It says K2_UL, but partitions are similar (it works).

Though, if it would make you feel comfortable, feel free to unpack the recovery.img and replace the kernel with yours and repack it ;). That is for the more cautious lol and because I want to get in your head right now haha.

Sorry for the delay. Currently porting a twrp theme to my device so I have been occupied.

I already have permission to open a thread and share here. There is one font that needs to be resized which is the clock, and some other images which need slight adjustment. The keyboard needs to be brought down a little. Its currently raised slightly too high. I have sent it to three people for testing. One has given feed back already and he is pretty excited about it lol. Still waiting on word from the other two. Once I fix these minor issues, I will be sharing it. It will work for all K2 variants ;)
