thx for the recovery TW!

Am I missing something or is mounting the storage not working?

There is no "sdcard" mounting in recovery on the HTC One. The best option inside of recovery is to adb push to sdcard.

For more info, read this explanation written by Dees_Troy: http://teamw.in/datamedia

How about the latest version of TWRP? Gives an error or it works well?

2500 works well for me. I haven't seen any errors. I'm really digging the advanced wipe menu. I updated from 2420 (I think) and it still required multiple wipes to do a full wipe.

To get root:

Unlock your device via http://htcdev.com
Download the latest TWRP from http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/m7wls

Shut off your device.
Press and hold volume down and then press power. Keep holding volume down until a menu shows on your screen.
Use the volume rocker to select fastboot and press power to select fastboot.
Plug the device into your computer.
If you have the right drivers installed your phone screen will now say: FASTBOOT USB

Using a command prompt, type:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader

Your device will reboot. Use the volume rocker to select recovery and press power. You will now boot TWRP.

In TWRP, select reboot -> system. You will be prompted to install SuperSU. Swipe to confirm.

When your device boots you will see a prompt to install the full version of SuperSU. Select to do the TWRP install. Your device will download a file, reboot into TWRP which will automatically install the file, then reboot again.

Congratulations, you are now rooted!

Pardon my ignorance guys, but it's been about a year since I have done any modding or rooting.
What I highlighted in red, does anything need to proceed that at the command prompt.
Thanks

You'll need to have ADB setup on your machine.

That is how I got to this point was using ADB. I just need to know if i'm supposed to point it to a specific folder or just type that in at any old command prompt.

Thanks

yes you are absolutely correct, remember sometimes it is advisable to boot your device totally prior to using the recovery ! Welcoe Back:good:

You just need to have the recovery.img in the same folder/path as your adb resides in so it knows where to grab it from. I attached a screen shot of what mine looks like and the cmd window. Hope that helps.

I know you can mount it normally through android but I'm not sure if there is a way to do it from recovery or bootloader there's a link somewhere in here to explain more about the mounting system, I'm at work or I'd find it an link it.

Thanks that did help although I must still not be getting something.


c:\android
^thats where it's pointed to.
recovery.img
^thats the name of the file.
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
^this is what i'm typing in.
'fastboot' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
^this is what it's saying after I type it in
:crying:
^and thats where i'm at right now.

Are you sure you have the SDK installed? It doesn't look like it's finding the necessary executable files. I just zipped up 4 files that I think are necessary to run adb and fastbboot and copied the archive up to my dropbox account. If you want to plop them into your c:\android folder, they might work for you. If not, someone else will probably be able to sort you out.

Is your phone booted into bootloader?

Is your phone booted into bootloader?

If you have the right drivers installed your phone screen will now say: FASTBOOT USB
^this^^^^
But I have to hit the volume down after I plug my phone in to see FASTBOOT USB


When my phone is on and usable and I execute "adb devices" it sees it, but not when I am in the bootloader.

C:\android>fastboot devic

I just issued this command and it found my phone in fastboot. So I don't know what the hell i'm doing wrong.

I also went in to device manager and everything looks to be in order in there. Someone please.

Ok, here is how I would to this, step by step.

Phone plugged in and turned on, making sure USB debugging is turned on under "Developer Options"

open command window.....

1. adb devices (to make sure it see's the phone, if it returns the deviceID, proceed.)
2. adb reboot bootloader (This reboots the phone into bootloader. As long as you have drivers installed properly, the phone screen will show "fastboot usb".)
3. fastboot flash recovery recovery.img (this will push the recovery "named" recovery.img that is in your SDK folder to the phone and flash it)
4. fastboot reboot (This reboots the phone)

See attachment for example

Then manually boot into bootloader (or you can use adb reboot bootloader) and use the volume rocker to choose recovery and press power to boot recovery. PROFIT

Hey, I don't know how the sdk was that he sent you but if you download this one that I use (you can download from here >>>>>> HTC_OneSDK) all you have to do is unzip to a folder and if you run the cmd.exe it'll map you to the current folder and all you have to do is run commands.

If you could run "fastboot device" and get the correct output, how can you not run "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" ?
They are both calling the same fastboot executable.
