How do I root my HTC One M8 on Marshmallow? (6.0)

[AC Question]

Hi, I have been wanting to root my htc one m8 for a while now, but so many sites just explain how to root my phone on lollipop and there aren't any recent instructions for the marshmallow update. Can someone give me step by step instructions or link me to a good site that helps me root my phone which is on 6.0? Thanks!

It may be possible that no one has discovered a root method yet. Sometimes, it changes when a new OS version comes out.

Hi Anon Guy,
The website I have li led at the bottom of this post is great for hacking tutorials, and he has uploaded a tutorial on Android rooting that has a lot of information that I think would help you out. I myself have an HTC m8s on marshmallow and it seems to be that it isn't easy to root. It seems that you have to root the manual way ( meaning you can't use 1 click root or any sort, you'll probably understand what I mean by that a bit more if you read the tutorial ). It is also different depending on what carrier you have or if your phone is unlocked. As I am Irish, I have Vodafone IE as my carrier, and it is hard to find a file for my device most likely because Ireland is a very small country and not worth making one for Vodafone IE phones XD. Anyway, I hope this has helped you a bit more. Here is the link for the tutorial :
