I have the HTC Desire 626s that came out here in the US on T-mobile yesterday. I have unlocked the bootloader via the htc dev tool succesfully. What is the first step in gaining root access on this device?

Do I need to try and port a custom recovery or is there an easier way?

Thanks

I have the HTC Desire 626S and the Unlocked bootloader, is there anything i can do to help a root move along i need to be able to install apps directly to my sd card instead of internal phone memory.

Ive tried all kinds of ways. So far nothing has been successful. twrp and cwm need to make a custom recovery bc I cant and I have win 10 so
the programs to make them are kinda hard to get working properly. win 8 is what most android program's and updates are made on....

Ok so I tried these rooting methods after unlocking bootloader

1.King root.exe root was unsuccessful
2.King root.apk root was unsuccessful.
3.Kingo Root.exe it said it was footing device for like 20 min but root was unsuccessful.
4.iroot exe and the apk root was unsuccessful.
5.apk called root my phone root was unsuccessful
6.tried flashing twrp recovery for HTC Desire.zip and nothing
7.tried flashing cwm recovery for HTC Desire.zip and nothing
8.tried other HTC Custom recoveries and nothing.
9.OneClickRoot.exe root was unsuccessful.
SO YES NO LUCK!!!! Im still testing and trying

After that press and hold Volum Down and Power button together for a couple of seconds.

It worked before right? or you couldn't unlock bootloader.....

IDK man :/ CWM and TWRP Need to hurry up

by holding volume down and power, the screen that pops up is fastboot or it wouldn't work when you type fastboot commands.

This is what i left it on when unlocking bootloader. you dont need a bootloader option if the bootloader Commands are working!!!!
RIGHT??

hmmm look into this!!!

ok I seemed to find a wrap around on getting fastboot off on htc desire 626s.. its crazy but it works but still no root i dont know what to do after this!!!!
LOOK at these photos https://www.sendspace.com/filegroup/qOHE3eblty0BnvqqOJax+wlCQcVwIz8NxWw8mil8h1g

it was said that HTC Quick Root can root htc desire 626s!!?????
well we got an error saying device is in fastboot and or recovery well it wasnt fastboot was just on and is always on!!!!!!

How to get fastboot off????
1. download VRoot_1.7.3.4863
2.run exe and let it connect to desire 626s but do not click root it will fail.
3. run HTC Quick Root and BOOOOOM!!!! it actually opens no errors fastboot is off for a short time.


TRY it yourself......

Witch option you select in the list "select you device" on page HTCdev? I don't see desire 626s in the list...
