[Tutorial] Root, Unlock, Recovery and flashing a Custom ROM

Just a quick step by step tutorial to get a Custom ROM working on your HTC One or if you just want to unlock and root!
This guide is especially for the new users, experienced HTC users should already be familiar with this process.
Step 1: Unlock
Go on http://www.htcdev.com and create yourself an account on HTCDEV.
Download these adb/fastboot files
Make a new folder on your C:/ drive called fastboot for example.
Extract the zip downloaded in step 2 to the new folder
Go Here http://www.htcdev.com/bootloader/ and select "All Other Supported Models" and "then begin unlock bootloader"
Yes, Tick both Boxes, Proceed
Skip up to step 8 as we have all we need for the first 7 steps
Power off your phone by holding the power button down for 10 seconds
Power your phone on by holding power and volume down
Highlight Fastboot With Volume+or- then press Power
Plug your phone into your PC and open a Command Prompt.
(windows XP - Click Start > Run > type CMD in box then press OK
(Windows 7 - Click Start > type CMD in search box then press Enter)
Change directory to your folder where we put fastboot files cd c:\fastboot
Type this into your command prompt window fastboot oem get_identifier_token
Select & copy the text as per step 9 on the HTCDev website
Paste your identifier token into the box at the bottom and submit
You Will Very Shortly Receive an email from HTCDev with a link to the second part of the instructions and your "Unlock_code.bin" attached
Download the "Unlock_code.bin" from the email and save it to the same folder that we extracted fastboot files to in step 2
Type this into your command prompt window fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin
The Display Will change on your phone, press Vol + to accept and power to confirm.
Step 2: Recovery
Download the Android SDK (optional)
Download the recovery of your choice, here a few links:
- CWM
- CWM 2
- TWRP
Place the Recovery file you downloaded where the fastboot.exe is (Either in the location of your downloaded fastboot drivers or in the Android SDK directory)
Now open the cmd and navigate to the folder where the Recovery File is located or just open a cmd with shift and right click at the correct directory
Now type:
fastboot flash recovery name_of_the_recovery.img
For example:
fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.2.8-m7.img
Now your recovery is installed
Step 3: Root
This step is only needed if you want a stock rooted ROM, if you want a custom ROM, skip this step.
Now root your phone with SuperSU by Chainfire or SuperUser by koush
Download SuperSU from this link or SuperUser from this link
Flash it with the Recovery:
Power off your device and then hold the VOL DOWN + Power to boot into the Bootloader
Navigate with VOL and Power to Recovery
Now flash the .zip:
- install zip from sdcard
- choose zip from sdcard
- select the downloaded SuperSU/SuperUser zip file and flash it
- Reboot now
Now you are able to flash any Custom ROM.
Step 4: Custom ROM
With htcdev unlock you need to flash the boot.img after every ROM installation
Note: Most of the custom ROMs have a script which lets the boot.img flash automatically with the ROM, so probably the steps after flashing the ROM are not needed.
If you are in a bootlop though, I recommend you to perform these steps and flash the boot.img with fastboot
Download the ROM you want to flash
Open the ROM zip with an archive manager and extract the boot.img out of it and place it in your fastboot directory
Copy the ROM to your sdcard
Now boot into bootloader again (explained above) and choose recovery with your volume keys and power button
In recovery wipe data and cache aka fullwipe before flashing your ROM if you are moving to a new base (for example from CyanogenMod to a Sense ROM, don't forget to backup your data files, like apps) (Often ROM chefs leave a note in their thread if a fullwipe is needed or not, just follow their advices)
Now flash your ROM by installing zip from sdcard
If this is finished, reboot and reboot into bootloader again
Connect your phone to your PC in fasboot mode (choose in bootloader with power button)
Open a cmd in your fastboot folder with your boot.img and type these two commands:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot erase cache
Then reboot your phone and wait some minutes to see your ROM booted
Enjoy

I recommend using SuperUser by koush insted of SuperSU. I also made Super Boot to root stock ROM but I need someone with WWE HTC One...

I added a link for koush's SuperUser

adb can't write system on stock, you would need a modified boot.img

There is no chance to brick but there is a chance for bootloop

if got the softwarw nr 1.27.206.1 with kernel [email protected]#1 - will it works with your 401 kernel?

Can you pull the system partition so we can enjoy some stuff from the One on other HTC devices?

tell me how to do and i will share

http://d-h.st/2DO
Unpack and run the runme.bat
Dumping may need a while, upload it to dropbox for example
Imho all devs should work together here instead of trying to be the first guy with a deodexed stock ROM

these are just windowsfiles - does not working on my linux, sorry

Do i understand it right i do not need to install recovery to get the system dump?

Simply go to your adb dir and type that in terminal:
adb pull /system ./system
optional:
adb kill-server
7za a -tzip system.zip system\ -r (needs the 7za file)
rmdir system /s /q
to pack a zip

Using ADB (I assume you already isntalled it)
adb devices
adb pull /system ./system
adb kill-server
It will write it in your ADB folder

Remove/rename logd WITHOUT ROOT!

Hi, i recently found a way to delete logd file WITHOUT ROOT.
Its not simple but you stay unrooted and stock.
First you need android platform-tools and latest twrp image file from official twrp site.
You will need working computer with installed adb drivers and lg drivers for adb and fastboot to work.
Steps :
1. Download all files listed above.
2. Move twrp image file to platform tools folder.
3. By holding shift key open command prompt in folder platform-tools.
4. Make sure that you have enabled usb debugging on your LG.
5. In cmd type: adb reboot bootloader
6. Phone should restart and enter fastboot mode
7. Then enter this command: fastboot boot twrp.img
8. You will enter twrp recovery but now flash it.
9. Make sure that you have selected system as partition in twrp.
10. Go into file manager, then into system/data and you will find logd file.
11. Rename it to logd.bak
And done!
No root required and 100% successs
Tried it on two Lg g4 and worked.
Also with that metod you can delete batterystats.bin.

Hi.
You need to unlock the bootloader for this to work, and doing that will void the warranty

Could you please post the download links of the various tools and files needed for us newbies...
Also, screenshots of the various steps would be appreciated cos may accidentally brick our G4s..
Thanks..

unlocked bootloader needed so meh..

Btw, does this work on H818N with andriod 6.0 and sw version V20D??
Thanks

It works on any LG g4 with unlocked bootloader

Why would someone "not root" but have unlocked bootloader?

[Root] Zenfone 2 Official Android 6.0 Root + Xposed and Downgrade

**WARNING** You need to have background knowledge of adb, fastboot, twrp, sideload.. before you can go on with this thread.
1. All credits go to @shakalaca. If you like his work, please make him a small donation for encouragement.
2. This is a systemless root. Yet you need to unlook Lollipop before upgrading to Marshmallow.
3. Flashing the attached SuperSU file modifies stock boot.img. In case you receive an OTA file later, do
**REMEMBER to FLASH BACK TO STOCK Android 6.0 BOOT.IMG** to unroot before upgrading to official Android 6.0.
Root:
1. Unlock your device in Lollipop, then upgrade to Android 6.0
2. Once you are in Android 6.0, fire the following command to boot twrp. <twrp.img> is the twrp recovery file. This TWRP is recommended.
HTML:
adb reboot-bootloader
fastboot boot <twrp.img>
3. adb sideload the attached SuperSu file in twrp. /OR install the SuperSU in twrp if you saved it in device storage.
4. reboot system. You will see a warning screen saying "Your device has failed Verification". Ignored it and wait for the reboot.
5. Done
Unroot:
Just flash back stock boot.img
Xposed:
1.Flash the attached Xposed file from twrp.
2.use Material Design Xposed Installer: Download Xposed Installer here
Downgrade to Lollipop:
In case you need to downgrade to Lollipop, follow the instructions with care. Do it at your risk.
Refer to Asus Zentalk Forum and grab the required files from there.
HTML:
fastboot flash token bom-token.bin
fastboot flash ifwi ifwi_ann_a0-mofd_v1-ze551ml.bin
fastboot flash fastboot droidboot.img
fastboot flash splashscreen splashscreen_ze551ml.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
Now you are back in Lollipop. You can flash back stock recovery(.184 recommended), wipe the device(cache/userdata/system) and then sideload back stock LP or MM as you wish. OR, you can flash custom recovery/boot/system.img start from here.
Good luck!

It worked!Thank you master!I bow now....

It does work, but YMMV, my phone is one of the few that works completely with the beta software. But before running fastboot cmd in adb. Use adb reboot recovery, then fastboot cmd. Phone will reboot twice after sideload of SU.

Assuming that everyone knows how to use adb and its commands
1: Well first make sure adb and drivers are on your pc.
2: Plug phone in make sure USB debugging is on
3: In adb cmd window type "adb devices" to make sure phone is recognized, if so proceed
4: type "adb reboot recovery" phone should boot into recovery with android robot on screen
5: Then type "fastboot boot <twrp.img>" twrp.img is whatever your file is named
6: phone will boot into recovery, go to adb sideload in recovery
7: type "adb sideload <SU.zip>" or whatever you have it named
8: After it's done loading reboot from recovery, it will reboot twice and the screen will say as per OP
9: After phone optimizes...enjoy root.
This is for advanced users

He's using whats called "tethered TWRP". It's basically running twrp on your phone from your computer instead of actually installing it (which would require unlocking).

Thank You for explaining that to me, appreciated!

To downgrade to Lollipop, is it possible to just use AsusFlashToolInstaller and flash raw firmware? Any harms by doing that?
Thank you in advance.

You need to adb sideload all LP .184 images first then use Asus FlashTool to flash RAW Firmware.

Guess your ZF2 is not unlocked in LP first, so that you can't see twrp booting. Since you are in Android 6.0 now, try to downgrade to LP, Unlock it, upgrade to 6.0 and then root.

I have already rooted my Sharp p1 so here steps for getting root(Magisk root only):
It is needed to unlock bootloader first:
1. Go to the Settings -> About phone, scroll down and tap on the Build number several times until you get message that you are a developer.
2. After that go to the Settings -> Developer options. Enable OEM unlocking and USB debugging.
3. Download adb drivers: k-tai.sharp.co.jp/support/developers/driver/index.html
4. Install them, don't forget to disable driver signature verification on your computer.
5. Download ADB zip archive and extract it in C:\adb.
dl.google.com/android/repository/platform-tools-latest-windows.zip
6. Open the Command Prompt as Administrator. Go to the adb folder with command: cd C:\adb
3. Enter your phone into fastboot mode: turn phone off, than press volume down and power button and connect USB in the same time.
4. Than enter this commands in command prompt:
fastboot oem unlock-go
fastboot erase userdata
After that it's possible to flash patched boot.img:
1. Download patched boot(for build number 00TW_1_190): yadi.sk/d/L7blgSOi3Rxpab
2. Place patched_boot.img file into C:\adb folder
3. Flash it with comand in fastboot:
fastboot flash boot patched_boot.img
4. Download and install magisk manager on your phone
5. Install zip archive of magisk from manager
This is all. Good luck!
PS: All the user data will be erased after this. Also phone have to be updated to the last firmware. If someone don't want to update the phone (some people got broken wifi and bluetooth after update), he or she must use boot.img from their firmware and patch it in Magisk manager. Correct boot.img can be extracted from update file of their firmware: 4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=882709&st=2740#entry70267350

Being root, do you know if it's possible to install another firmware image on the Aquos P1, like the one of the SHV34 (which is Android 8)? I believe both phones have the exact same hardware...
The trouble is, the SHV34 Android 8 update is OTA and there's no firmware file available for download.

No, I don't know. There are update files of Android 7 and 8 for shv34 on 4pda.ru forum, but it isn't full update. Only system, boot and vendor images are full, all other are patches. I think we need help of Android developer to create firmware from shv34 update, if it possible.
Few months ago one developer started making Lineage OS 14 for our phone, but developing stuck because there wasn't someone to test all new stuff and make logcats, like test new kernel. Also guys from 4pda started donating for the phone to send it to developer, but didn't donate full price by this time.

I have already rooted my Sharp p1 so here steps for getting root(Magisk root only):
It is needed to unlock bootloader first:
1. Go to the Settings -> About phone, scroll down and tap on the Build number several times until you get message that you are a developer.
2. After that go to the Settings -> Developer options. Enable OEM unlocking and USB debugging.
3. Download adb drivers: k-tai.sharp.co.jp/support/developers/driver/index.html
4. Install them, don't forget to disable driver signature verification on your computer.
5. Download ADB zip archive and extract it in C:\adb.
dl.google.com/android/repository/platform-tools-latest-windows.zip
6. Open the Command Prompt as Administrator. Go to the adb folder with command: cd C:\adb
3. Enter your phone into fastboot mode: turn phone off, than press volume down and power button and connect USB in the same time.
4. Than enter this commands in command prompt:
fastboot oem unlock-go
fastboot erase userdata
After that it's possible to flash patched boot.img:
1. Download patched boot(for build number 00TW_1_190): yadi.sk/d/L7blgSOi3Rxpab
2. Place patched_boot.img file into C:\adb folder
3. Flash it with comand in fastboot:
fastboot flash boot patched_boot.img
4. Download and install magisk manager on your phone
5. Install zip archive of magisk from manager

As I know, it is not possible to access fastboot on shv34, so the only way is to do something like this https://blog.tewi.love/?p=135
The same is for sh-04h and 506sh. Only sharp p1 has fastboot

I have softbank sharp aquos 506sh.
My build mumber is s1008, nougjat 7.0.
I want to update to oreo.
After net search, i installed japan vpn.
But when i try to update, it gives error that " this service is unavailable because can not read sim card".
I tried both ways inserting sim card. And removing it, but still get the same response.
Kindly guide when how i can update it.
Sim works fine in mobile.
I have trief factory resetting 2 3 times from inside settimg menu, as it do not boot in recovery,
Kimdly help me, because fighting with it ftom last 2 days to get updated

I also have 506SH, and im stuck on Marshmallow. Same USIM Error, the VPN trick dont work with this model!! and it dont have fast boot or recovery as far as i know. Is it possible you can dump a clean backup of ur OS 7. I just want to update my OS, not looking for root etc!!

dear if you can tell me the procedure, iwould definitely do it.
if even make a dump, how you would flash it without fastboot, root, recovery,
i am seraching from last week, but could not find any clues

I have found this method online "Using FlashFire App (Root users)" But it require a rooted set! and I believe to apply this dump the target set must be rooted too! I think 506SH has no root either!!
https://www.the***********.com/backup-android-device-guide/
I dont know why no1 ever backup the download OTA of the firmware and posted it anywhere!!
I will try this logcat method! and will report back!! i dont think it will work! I think there is some sort of SIM issue! because I notice in my phone! the baseband has no version! just 00 00 00!!

baseband 00 00 00 is beacuse you are still on marshmallow 6.0 , which was out of factory version, i am on noughat 7.0, my baseband is 1.00 00 00, and if i ever get oreo, it will be 200 00 00, every company has its nown symbols and styles
logcat method can work if ota update essage apperas, but unfortunately, we dont have that option still.
lets search on local olx for 506sh users, maybe some one has upgraded oreo or some methods . maybe whole sellers in karachi bringing sharp phones, have some clues,

When I reset My phone and setup first time! I get the Automatic update pop up!! I will try to logcat at this stage to see if it shows any URL!! in Karachi phone shop have no clue, they even dont know this phone has a 120Hz screen! the shop I bought my phone from was telling me if I found a working root method! he can give me the contract to root these sets!

that automatic update message which appears is just due to reset.
thing which i understand is that update process is not accepting wifi, and goes for sim data.
because in SOFTBANK website, they stated, either wifi or sim data required
