RM means remove so if you see rm failed it just means it couldn't find that file to remove so i think you should be rooted. Check to see if you have superuser and all of that.

i installed super user and a root checker and i get nothing it says its not rooted

Just find a pc from a family member or friend and load up Odin cuz Mac to me is annoying in a whole lot of ways. When push comes to shove you gotta do what you gotta do.

I tried and reinstalled the HTC drivers but nothing.. still the same issue.
Go to the Android SDK page and re-install or update your SDK. This should correct your problem.
Alright ,an thanks. Ill report back ina few
edit: I did just install the most recent one..
Im going to reinstall it now.
This works like a charm, used this guide set mine in a matter of minutes:

also if you need more help, the look at some of the other suggested videos on the page.
Alright cool. Thanks. Im not home but I'll mess with it tonight.

Can't find full kernel version for rooting

Hey I apologize if this is a stupid question, what with the video, and this thread and all which is also giving advice but.... It doesn't seem to apply to me since I have a different model phone. >.>
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1383050
So here goes, when I'm trying to find my kernel version all I get is 2.6.35.11, with no other information whatsoever. I reset it to factory settings (I bought it used off of ebay) to see if that may help and there was no such luck. So I took the liberty of taking a screenshot hoping that would you might be able to help me This is only my second android device (my first was a g1 that I rooted back when texts entered information into the terminal) so be gentle.

Now I'm not sure what to do at the moment, but any help would be awesome. I would really like to root my phone so I can get all this garbage software off of it. Thanks guys!
Not sure what you are trying to accomplish, you are running 2.3.5 as your android version, you can use SuperOneClick to root it ...
Or you can Use Odin to flash a custom recovery , and root it ...
and then you can install whatever custom ROM you want as long as it is compatible with your phone ...

I was going to try and link you to the method I found but I found something on AndroidNZ that I thought would work. I'm sorry if this sounds like a stupid thread, I'll try the things you guys just mentioned.

Agreed....
It might help if you tell us what exactly you're trying to accomplish, and what it currently says in the bootloader of the device in question. Then we can properly direct you on how to proceed.
P.S.

Art breaks root on LG G3 D855?

Sorry if this has been mentioned already......
I have been rooted for the last few months now through Purple Drake lite. I have CWM as well as as having the Update-SuperSU-V1.94.
Everything has been working well until i switched to ART. It broke root and messed up all the apps. Tried to factory reset and try and root again but the same thing keeps happening. When i try rootchecker, it says there is no root, but when i check stumproot, it says the phone is rooted. But the weird thing is, You can tell some of the apps that need root work, but others won't work which is really weird.
I can't boot into recovery. This pops up:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Anyone familiar with this?
Thanks

Somehow the CWM file got corrupted and would not delete through factory reset. So all i did was move it through a file manager and place it on my sd card and delete it from there. Then it let me delete it. Pretty weird..
