Hi Guys,
I got my new UK/Euro version M8 delivered yesterday. I'm upgrading from a rooted S3 i9300 running CM10.
I've already unlocked the loader using the HTC tool but I can't find any versions of CWM or TWRP for it yet (not surprising as it's so fresh).
Has anyone managed to gain root access via any other means yet?
Cheers,
AsciiSmoke

Thanks, but that's for the 2013 version of the HTC One (M7). Has anyone managed to root the M8 yet?

That is for the M8.
Unlock, TWRP, push SU. (assuming non-verizon)

I wonder is the Sprint M8 going to get it's own forum like the old HTC Sprint phones did, or are these similar enough to keep grouped in one forum?

Yes...and the recovery CaptainThrowback has posted in there worked on my Sprint M8...after a lot of frustration with other versions.
It is easy to install as it is now included in the toolkit from squabbi located here.. http://goo.gl/UoMXgW
The guys over in the AT&T neck of the woods are running TWRP 2.7.X.X. Say its compiled from source not a port. I have a AT&T m8 so I can't speak to it working for you, but I don't see why it wouldn't.

No, check the Verizon HTC One Android Development and Original Android Development sub forums.

Hi,
Anyone tried flashing latest ARHD to Verizon M8 yet? What works? What doesn't work?
The rom thread notes that "Verizon and Sprint variants not fully supported yet" but it doesn't clarify what exactly doesn't work, and I don't see any comments to that effect in the dev thread. Forum won't let me post there until I have 10 posts, so I'm asking here .
Thanks!

You have a Verizon HTC One M8? Radio (2G/3G/LTE), wifi, bluetooth, all works? Do you use Sense-6 or GPE? What custom recovery (Philz/TWRP/other)?
Thanks!
I believe Verizon support was added in version 1.3.0 onwards.
Edit: My bad, wrong ROM

"For HTC One M8 (Verizon and Sprint variants not fully supported yet)"
Okay, here's what I've done so far:
1) Install weaksauce and supersu to get temp root
2) Use 2nd firewater method to unlock bootloader (Verizon blocks normal htcdev method)
3) Install twrp m8_wlv version from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2717928
4) Took a backup with twrp
TODO: Flash a rom... (waiting on slow download)

Hey Andrew,
How did you get ARHD to work with CDMA? Mine can't find Verizon network. Edit: Does *find* it, but cannot register with it.

All VZW m9's shipped with the latest OS. We have not received a single OTA yet, therefore what you are looking for doesn't exist (yet). Once it hits, you will simply need to get a copy of the otapkg.zip and run it from your SD/internal storage to update.

No i am not S-OFF yet I believe the unlocked bootloader isnt available for VZW M9. The only way right now is by using a java card. Is there another way?

Thanks for the update! I came across a few sites online which mentioned Verizon has released the camera update. Any idea when will it be available? Also, are the manual update files available for verizon , and if so where can i get them??
Ok, so I have a VZW HTC One M7 that has been updated to HBOOT 1.61 running Droid 5.0.2. Am I dead in the water with trying to root and s-off this phone? I've been searching for a while now with no luck. If it is possible to root this phone please tell me so I can stop whining about it!

Your stuck, as Sunshine does not work for Android 5.0.0
Search Google for someone with a Java Card.
Also your post is better suited in the General Section.
Good Luck.

Note at this time.
Verizon locks the bootloaders, so you can't use the HTC Dev website.
The M7 is over two years old. So I don't it is a priority now.
