i unlocked my boot loader and used this method and im able to use titanium backup and superuser apps hope this helps
http://androidcommunity.com/htc-amaze-4g-gets-permanent-one-click-root-20111020/
Yes just picked mine up today. Would love to know how to root this device also.
With this phone being released on AT&T on November 6th there will most certainly be a tremendous increase in the desire for root and dev involvement. It won't be long before this phone has it's own forum and a whole lot of XDA love. I'm one of the many that has been waiting for this phone to come out since it was leaked back in May and I can hardly wait to get my hands on one!
Adding support to this thread. Would love to get root for my Raider! Will also help out this process in anyway I can.

+1. I plan on picking up this device on monday
Does the raider/vivid have the ability to do HDMI out?
it has a mhl port which is physically identical to a micro usb, it does do hdmi out but you need an adapter
google mhl to hdmi and it will all come up
Do we know if the boot loader is locked or unlocked?
Add your vote here to get an HTC Holiday/Raider/Vivid forum added.
Anyone try the regular rooting methods

I'm not able to post links, but if you google htc bootloader and go to htcdev.com it will all be there, I believe that's what he's referring to.

Yes that's what I'm refering too, my bootloader is unlocked but we need a custom recovery to get full root.

Doesn't matter, just get the fastboot code and it will generate a working unlock code.

Not that I know of, this will probably speed up now that its available in the u.s.
But I'm more than willing to dump any partions a developerwould need.

I wouldn't expect any time soon.
Virgin is very tight lipped about it which usually means it's still a ways off.
I can't wait for the update, I am excited to see how well it works on this phone.
I'm going to guess October some time.
We should get a pool going on this one and see who wins
I'm still deciding whether to wait for the update or just put another official gingerbread/custom rom onto the phone.
Reason is, we have a way to S-OFF our phones via computer for FREE - which i've already done

I'm using a Bell incredible s. I took the s-off and originally flashed the gingerbread stock ruu. Nice to have it unbranded. I'm also using it on Rogers now. It's not hard to do. It can be overwhelming with all the info though. I'm thinking of writing a guide. Attn1 was very helpful in irc even though he didn't need to.

Hey guys, I just got the HTC Raider here in Canada on Rogers. I wanna know do I have to unlock the bootloader in order to root? Or is there a way to root without unlocking bootloader?
Thanks to everyone and anyone who can advise
Not at the moment, too root you have to flash a .zip through recovery so you will need to unlock your bootloader in order to gain root.
Hey Mr Patchy Patch, remember you from the X10 days.

The HTC Vivid (AT&T) option should work. Haven't heard any problems with any Bell users unlocking through HTC dev and selecting HTC Vivid.

Hello. im sorry if this is not the right places, but here is what i can tell you.
I did the whole s-off, custom hboot, custom recovery business.
changes the ap? to 111111 (cant remember how many it was) to use the att update to ics.
installed virtuous rom.
i used the sim from my iphone 4 with a sim adapter to make it fit properly.
i got my unlock code. not sure if i can say where, so i wont. i got the link somewhere on xda and it seemed legit.
i just get unsuccesfulll...
and im scared to do it again, because i dont know how many more tried i have, it might only be 1 more time.
11140626
IMEI # 358730040400582
i double checked, this is correct.
fastboot oem writecid 11111111
could that be messing up my unlock?
going to try flashing back to stock rogers, i have a feeling thats whats messing it up

In the middle of downloading the stock RUU again...in the same boat here.
By chance is there any other way around this?
Not sure if this has any bearing, but could it have anything to do with the fact that I have changed my CID to 111111 from what it was previously (ROGERS3 - or something...dont remember what it was doh!).
Thanks
No, supercid did not effect it, just go back to stock, sim should unlock now, and repeated the process back to the way you want, good luck, I can't really offer much more advice, I would concider myself a noob that reads alot.

I believe you have to use the unlock code on the stock non rooted non unlocked phone before upgrading.

I'd like to know too, having hit the HTC Dev "sorry it aint going to happen" error message when transferring the code across to the HTC site. I've seen sites that will do this for money so I know there's a solution out there. After many years of Android and unlocking I don't particularly want to pay someone for something that should be public knowledge.
I got a code from eBay for £3 and it worked fine... Send me a pm with your email and send you link....

Can't say about UK, but my HTC One on 3 Sweden was no problem unlocking bootloader from HTC Dev at beginning of last week... Just wanted to clarify in case other swedes read and give up in advance... Find it strange that the same carrier would have different policys in different countries but fairly new to the game so I'm not sure.

I unlocked my 3 UK branded HTC one via htcdev
If HTC one is not in drop down menu
Then select other models option
This worked for me
Edit
Not sure if op means unlock bootloader, which is via htcdev as above or carrier unlock, to use a non 3 SIM, which is a different process
You will be emailed an unlock token that you should save, as this can be used to unlock your phone again should you relock

International ROM
Can anyone here give me simple starter instructions to reflash my vodafone htc one with international stock rom
I dont want a custom rom just a non vodafone rom form HTC, EU or World.
It is SIM unlocked Bootloader locked.
Can this be done without rooting?
Just switched form Samsung where it was easy to switch to a different rom by flashing without rooting...is there a similar way with HTC?

Thinking of changing form an Xperia Z with a locked bootloader - would you be so kind as to confirm whether the HTC One on 3 UK has a locked down bootloader? The XZ bootloader is locked down tighter than a duck's behind.

Hey guys just received brand new HTC one out of the box. Just wondering quickest method of root right now and what people are using for their recoveries. Yes I have researched but I see a lot of things out there. I'm sure one of your guys response would be quicker. If you could post links for root and a good recovery that would be appreciated. I'm on 4.2.2 thanks in advance.

I assume you have the international unlocked One, not any of the U.S. carrier branded Ones.
1) Go to htcdev.com, create an account. Choose the option to unlock the bootloader. You need the fastboot drivers. Easy to find
2) Once you're bootloader unlocked, flash TWRP recovery from this link:
http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/m7
3) Install SuperSU once u have TWRP(the app will be installed automatically). Run the app
4) You're rooted. Very naize
P.S. I would advise u to S-OFF your phone after rooting it, coz certain ROMs aint compatible with S-ON, ur default. So, before installing the 4.4.2 OTA, flash ARHD 31.6, run the rumrunner tool

Verizon wireless u.s.a and I'm on 4.2.2 and I waited to update to kitkat because I didn't know if there was an exploit for root and stuff like that. Can my bootloader still be unlocked? Keep in mind I'm 100% stock on 4.2.2 I just kind of need to be steered in the right direction on what to do next seeing as though there is an overwhelming amount of mods out for this phone.

Yeah, u need to use rumrunner tool, not the HTC dev unlock.
http://rumrunner.us/downloads-2/
Download for Verizon, READ THE INSTRUCTIONS AND PRE-REQUISITES CAREFULLY
And, btw, this is not the thread for the Verizon One. Hence, there are no ROMs which support the Verizon variant. Flashing a ROM from the development thread for HTC One WILL BRICK UR PHONE. Make sure u flash ROMs/MODs for the Verizon One from:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-htc-one
FYI, if u want the most mods/roms, u should have bought the unlocked One
