as stated by @jcaseSunShine is a commercial application that will unlock and s-off the bootloader on modern HTC devices (ie HTC M8).
I thought Sunshine both unlocks and gives S-OFF, at least that's the impression you get when you look at the main OP.

WeakSauce will work on Verizon m8
TowelRoot v3 should work on the others
SunShine will both unlock and s-off
TowelRoot temp root works, but sunshine says it cannot find the su binary. Towelroot perm root is not working. My phone is completely stock m8 ul.
Towelroot v3 didnt work for me either. on the apk it states if the phone reboots towelroot failed. my phone didnt reboot and appeared to have worked but supersu didnt work. i couldnt grant root access to anything, including sunshine.......
Did you follow the instructions on the Sunshine website, specifically written for Towelroot v3?
I should have been more specific sorry. yes i did and when opening supersu it asks how i want to update the binarys "normal" or "twrp cwm" i choose normal as i dont have a custom recovery installed then i get a quick flash of a message all i can make out is installation failed then it reboots.... when i dont open supersu and just open sunshine. the popup asks for root access which i grant and then i have a blue screen for a long time. i was sat 5 mins before watching the blue screen lol

The instructions on the SunShine site do not mention installing the SuperSu app.Uninstall the app, then follow instructions. After you are s-off or unlocked, then install a custom recovery, and flash su properly.
The TowelRoot method is not ideal for long term use, but works for our purposes just fine.

It worked perfectly, thanks for your reply mate! What is the best recovery to flash and what is the best way to flash it for the first time adb?
