After much fun and games I have managed to root my new One SV, so now I am writing up a quick walkthrough to make life easier on those who follow.
[B]Please note, this CAN and slightly DOES brick your phone. Do not proceed if you are not confident in your ability.[/B
Any damages caused are your own problem and I withhold any liability for any future issues caused by this process
The steps are as follows.
1: Unlock your phone at the htcdev site, follow the instructions on the site
2: Download the following two files. ClockworkMod Recovery and Superuser.zip
3: reboot your phone into hboot and then into fastboot if you are not already there
4:
this is presuming the recovery.img is in the same directory as fastboot, you can either move it or point the code to it directly
5: open recovery. Please note, while the up and down arrows work, the power button does not, so you can't actually control it.

9: extract su and superuser.apk from the superuser zip file

(again assuming the files are in the same dir)
