Root HTC One A9
HTC One A9 has DM verity enabled and makes use of encryption so root on One A9 is achieved only through system less root methods. We suggest going for the super SU which automatically disables forced encryption and dm-verity, but requires a “Format Data” in TWRP. So boot into TWRP and then select ‘format data’ in TWRP.
* reboot into recovery, then sideload supersu.zip you downloaded earlier. Go to advanced> adb sideload in TWRP and then from your computer run it.
