[Q] New to Android: How to flash a new rom questions - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Okay... I have looked around, saw a few guides, Think its 90% clear to me how to do this.. HOWEVER just to be certain::
First I unlock through htc website..
Root it, then add a custom recovery (clock work mod tool i think??)
Then flash it somehow?
I would appreciate if someone could direct me to a super noob friendly guide on how to do this?
The plan is to put on a google play edition ROM onto my new normal HTC One.
Thanks!

It's not Wikipedia, but XDA-Developers Wiki
Unlocking was the hardest part (lose all data and likely no backup )
Just flash any (compatible) recovery and reboot into it.
Then flash su.zip to get root access.

You will need to unlock your bootloader at htcdev.com
Then you will need to download superuser.zip at clockworkmod.com
Good luck.

Yes the down side of unlocking the bootloader is that it will also do a System Reset and wipe out your downloaded apps and data, including your contacts. You can sync your contacts to your Google account and should be ok.
would like to get download link
i didn't find superuser.apk at clockwork.com , give me another way to get superuser.apk in other website.

Choose "All Other Supported Models". You need an account to begin.
I have success. So far, I'm loving this phone.

Looking for ROM advice.

Hey guys,
I just got my new HTC One 3 days ago and I am about to unlock and root. I want to keep it as stock as possible, but have working wifi. I need suggestions for a rom that fits that description. Thanks a bunch for any advice you can give.

Unlock + root only. Not sure what else you require

There are no roms fr the One which have no Wifi
There are maany roms based on stock Sense 5.5 which offer a lot more custimizations, like RAM usage in the mutitasking menu, changing the grid size in the app drawer, nd MILLIONS of other mods, than the default stock rom. ARHD, InsertCoin, MaximusHD, ViperOne are a few roms which i can remember. I wud recommend any of these Sense roms instead of pure stock

Was unsure if root only would give me working wifi. Thanks a bunch.

I would suggest Maximus 32.0 , closest to stock, bug free, great battery life,
works good with custom kernels etc..

Thanks a bunch, but doesn't look like it's gonna happen. I keep getting error code 106 from HTC's unlock site, so I can't unlock it anyway. hasoon's tool kit download links have been removed, so no luck there either unless you know a way to unlock it that I haven't tried. Thanks again.

Certain variants of the One like the Verizon version cant b unlocked thru HTCDev. The Verizon One needs to b unlocked with Rumrunner. There are special tools required fr certain variants. I only know so much, coz mine is International Unlocked. Search the forum fr any threads which solve ur issue(Im sure some1 wud have had the same issue). Otherwise Create a separate thread fr ur issue
