I previously owned an HTC One M8 which I rooted using the weaksauce/firewater method. I recently banged up the phone and bought a Samsung Galaxy G5 which I also rooted (took forever) but I didn't like it so I bought and just received a new (used) HTC One M8 (HTC6525LVW) running Android 5.0.1 which I would like to root.
I've googled, checked the forums and have found a ton of information so I'm looking for some very high level guidance. I'm up for just about anything including downgrading my version of Android but I'm not sure of the best move. I'm only interested in root. Any other benefits are fine but my goal is to get root access so I can run my ad blocker, titanium backup etc.
I don't need any sort of step by step instructions just an indicator of the best method and I'll do all the rest. Thank you for the help!
