Hello people, I am new to HTC One which I am coming from the One X+. I have a few questions before I start flashing stuff. Okay I already got my bootloader unlocked and am about to flash twrp recovery and get SU.
My questions are:
Do I need to get S Off to flash roms?
When I flash a Rom,do I need to flash the boot.img manually?
What is an HTC dumlock and do I need it?
My hboot is 1.55
I have an AT&T One
Thanks in advance guys.

No, you don't need s-off to flash Roms. If you want to flash GPE Roms, you need s-off though. Otherwise you'll end up in a bootloop.
You don't have to flash the boot.img manually.
HTC dumlock is described in the twrp thread and you won't need it probably.

Thank you much for the reply!
What's an GPE Rom?
Just one more question, I was looking to flash the viperone Rom....could I flash that Rom with s on and not having to manually flash the boot.img?
