[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SS4Serebii:
Okay, the title is pretty much self-explanatory, but here's the thing. I want all the HTC One users to know all the possible Pros/cons before they root their One. So this is my aim for a compiled list.

Here are the reasons you might be looking for.

Why should I Root my HTC One?

1 - Backup all the AppData, Saved Games etc

2 - Flash mods, for icons etc, Change boot animation.

3 - Install apps like Lucky Patcher and all the stuff it's used for ;)

4 - Convert it into a Google Play Edition HTC One, so that you can get the latest Android Early.

5 - Better Battery Life

6 - Bypass IP Address in the entire phone. For Proxy.

7 - Faster Updates

Why I should NOT be rooting my HTC One?

1 - The Hardware is pretty good so how much faster can it go?

2 - Sense is pretty. Flashing any other ROM would mean losing Sense Features. Unless you keep sense.

3 - Flashing any non-sense based rom would mean Bye Bye to Zoe, BlinkFeed, Beats Audio and other HTC Features.

4 - You could suffer from ORD, which was my case.

5 - Having to install your basic app's again everytime you flash a new base ROM.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redbull123:
You can just root Sense and keep everything. All you need is an unlocked bootloader and a custom recovery.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SS4Serebii:
That's true. But what benefits?

It will still nullify warranty.

Better battery life

Tethering/hotspot for free

Those are my 2 reasons
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LifeEscalade:
Well if you are on T-mo then tethering/hotspot for free is already included with the device, just make sure you have unlimited data.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nouxxer:
For me main reason to root because i want bypass ip address. Many country is blocking many site.also my office also blocking certain site in their router. So i try many free dns and it works until my carrier block many until dns ic blocked.so now im using tor network it also need root access.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redbull123:
I got your question fine. Use Google.

Edit: To be less harsh - root gives you so much permission that it'd be hard to answer what the benefits are. Someone else might give an answer that you don't see so much as a benefit. The best thing to do is do some research yourself. There are plenty of articles online answering your exact question..
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] funfair91:
My reason for flashing is because the update in my country is slow thus I rather flash a custom rom which update faster...

[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bonedriven:
This is the 2nd time I've bricked my defy. The first time I flashed a full sbf, which I don't remember which now and the phone was fixed.

But this time I can't fix it by flashing sbf. The phone came with Orange France Froyo. If I remember right, the first time I fixed it by flashing the stock sbf, however I'm not sure.

So when my phone couldn't boot at all I flashed it again "Orange France" for defy:

"JRDNEM_U3_3.4.2_164-005_OR_SIGN_SIGNED_USAJRDNEMARAB1B8ORAFR03A.0R_PDS03C_USAJRDNFRYOORAFR_P023_A010_M004_HWp3_Service1FF.sbf.gz"

But when RSD Lite tells me to "manually reboot the phone", I unplug it and Power button+volumn down, after the red M appears, it shows an android bot with an exclamation mark in a triangle.

So I think maybe last time I have flashed a gingerbread sbf. I then downloaded a full sbf for defy+:

"DEFYPLUS_U3_4.5.1-134_DFP-125_BLUR_SIGN_SIGNED_USADEFYEMARAB1B8RTGB005.0R_PDS03C_USAJRDNGIBRRTGB_P022_A022_M002_HWp3_WIG148094_Service1FF"

It's still the same result: "an android bot with an exclamation mark in a triangle"

I need serious help, thanks. There is still hope right, as my phone still can show stuff....:crying:
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yzeroy:
Can you boot into stock recovery?? if YES then complete wipe and try SBF again ...
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bonedriven:
Thank you. This is embarrassing! The minute I clicked submit this post I pressed some buttons in desperation on my phone then I saw the lovely "blue letters", the recovery menu !! I then cleaned all data and cache and my phone can boot again ! I am going to root it and flash roms !! :D

Thank you anyway !

p.s. At this moment I found with the full sbf I flashed the camera doesn't work. Hoepfully when I get it rooted and flash CM10.1 everything works normally again.
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hotdog125:
Power + volume down is required to go to stock recovery:laugh:.Press only power button. To access stock recovery from the exclamation mark + triangle press volume up + volume down.

But i'm still wondering as to why you flashed Defy+ SBF. Now you can't downgrade and the camera won't work. You have to use 2ndboot ROMS like CM9 (EPSYLON), CM10.x and MS2Ginger.
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bonedriven:
I did that only as I thought my sbf flashed failed because my previous sbf flash was to a higher version. In fact I could have press some button to see the recovery menu.

Thank you for the info! I didn't know the "camera doesn't work" scenario till you tell me! Nvm, I normally use CM10.
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bonedriven:
When I have rooted my phone successfully, I find I can't use stock recovery to flash a CM10, which now I see makes sense...

But how do I install CWM recovery plz? I download it on sdcard and then ...? There's only one option "apply update from sdcard", do I flash the downloaed CWM recovery with that option?

I just tried install TWRP by using stock recovery "update from sdcard", it shows the same error as I flash a CM 10 ROM:

E: failed to verify whole-file signature

E: signature verification failed
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yzeroy:
You can´t flash CMx through stock recovery, you need 2nd init app (http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=589645&d=1304799260) after installing this and folowing steps in app reboot and wait for blue led turns on and press volume down and go into custom recovery, WIPE, and install your CMx adn reboot =)

SORRY FOR MY ENGLISH
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hotdog125:
Search for and install 2ndinit. Install the apk normally, open it. Press the install 2ndinit bootmenu button and accept the su permission. Then reboot and press volume down when blue led appears.
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bonedriven:
I realized that later... I haven't built my phone from scratch for some time. :). Well that's not built from cratch for you, but...;)

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Codename13:
Your phone's the SPH-L710, amiright? Download one of the firmwares from this page (I recommend going with the latest one on 4.1.2). The firmware file is going to be rather large (maybe around 1 Gigabyte). Once it is complete, download Odin from here, and you can find a simple explanation on how to use it here. You're going to have to extract the .tar (or .tar.md5) file in the firmware .zip you downloaded earlier. That .tar.md5 goes under 'one package' in Odin. If you have any questions or you are unsure of anything, don't proceed until you understand it all. You can seriously mess up your device if you make a mistake. Feel free to PM me all your concerns and questions. I'll help.

How did you side load? Get the apk and load in cwm? Im wondering if the game is incompatible because of the phone's region code not being USA.

You download the game from elsewhere on the web...put on SD...install from SD using root explorer or similar instead of store..may have to check unknown sources in settings/security though first...

When i click on "Register" nothing happens.

I tried several combinations of characters and numbers but i always get this annoying

"Username length should be 4-20 characters and contain alphanumeric text or underscores."

I tested with 3 different browsers on my pc and with 2 different on my phone.

I would like to ask,how can I connect to AS via BT,when I tap to Tools>Connect via BT... it ignores me. It does absolutely nothing. While attempting to connect via IrDA,it starts to connecting. The same thing should do also BT. Once,maybe 1 month ago it worked fine. Since one week ago,when I've changed the Radio stack I couldn't connect. Before was all allright. Any Ideas? Please.

hey bro :D

since ur running magneto on ur himalaya,it should be easy...

broadcom bluetouth stack ufortunatlydon't run on magneto :( ,but still M$ blutouth one will synchronize...

now u have to do the following:

1-uninstall every bluetooth software from ur pc(if u have intalled the ones that comes in the cd),restart,put bluetouth into usb,and let winxp sp2 identifies it(remember,only win xp drivers,no softwares).

2-go to control pannel in ur pc/bluetouth devices/com ports,and see wich com port ur blutouth is using,then from the options tab,select the turn discovery on.

3-go to active synchronization 4.0/file/connection settings,disselect allow USB connections,select allow connections to one of the following:,and put the com port u already checked in 2,and put automatic in the window below.u may need to restart ur pc.

4-now,pair ur pc and ur himalaya,u must see that ur PC supports active synchronization,then select/check it.(if u do not see,from ur himalaya,once paired,that ur pc supports active sync and checked it,u will not be able to sync).note that u may also need to restart ur pocket PC.

5-finally,go to ur pocket PC/active synchronization/connect via bluetouth,the port will open....ur now connected. :wink:

oh by hte way,the same procedures work if u have 2003se with bluetouth stack by widcom,just don't open active sync on ur himalaya before going to bt stack/bluetouth manger(that's the blue blutouth icon with red star in the buttom of ur screen)/active sync via blutouth(i guess,i don't have SE anymore),u will see ur PC with active sync option,then just synchronize :wink:

hope i've helped..

RAGO :lol:
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] TomasNM:
...

Well... All I have with my BT stack at the PC's side is correct. At the PPC side it is also correct adjusted. Now,in the 5th step you wrote:

'...go to ur pocket PC/active synchronization/connect via bluetouth,the port will open....'.

This is the problem: It should open the port,BUT it does absolutely nothing... Just the 'Tools' roll-up menu is disappeared. While trying to connect via IrDA,the port starts to connecting. BUT Bluetooth doesn't it. Why?

hi

have u tried hard reset,if u have and the problem persists,try flashing.....the procedures should work unless there's some kind of problem in ur device(most probably software issue),it should be solved with a hard reset or in the worst a flash...

If You reach it please told Us Thank Youuuuuuuu :(
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] TomasNM:
Solution

I've found that...

@PC: You need to create an BT serial port in your services(COMx). Then go to the connection settings in AS and check the "Allow connection to one of the following:" option and choose this COMx.

@PPC: Pair your device with PC. You should see the AS service in a list of services of your PC. Enable this option and tap Finish.

Now you should be able to connect via BT.
