HTC One LTE - what front end is installed - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Another question...
PDAdb.net reports that the HTC model 801n has a selectable secondary radio see attached image from their spec sheet.
Does anyone know how this would be selected, if it is not enabled initially?
I bought the phone from the UK and I am just hoping hoping hoping that the PDAbd spec is correct and that I can get the LTE running.
I am not sure what front end that One has - I think the RF360 is too new.. isn't it? Because if that is installed, it can run any network..... Nice job Qualcomm....
Many thanks,
Nick

The specs on the screenshot is wrong. However HTC One is using a modem similar to the Xperia Z. However other frequency bands are locked out & through software or should I say the baseband so it's very hard to make it into a world phone. Possible but if HTC decides to create a baseband for it.

Verzion Diamond??

I searched first and found no info so i figured i would ask. Does anyone know when verizon will be releasing there version of the diamond the only info i could find on google was saying october but as u can see i doubt that will happen. I also searched the verzion website and there ws no info there any help would be great.
I believe that Alltel, Sprint and Telus will be the only ones which I believe that the best plan is on Alltel for this type of phone anyway if your in an area that has an alltel carrier. Sweet phone by the way the best screen display out of any phone I have ever seen too.
Well i do know for sure that they are putting it out the question is when. The reason i ask is because instead of using the msm7200 like all the other diamonds they are using the msm7500. Which will mean that we will finally have opengl drivers for our vogues. You can check the specs right here.

[Q] let me get this straight

as of now the only difference between dev edition and regular edition is the 64 gb? (assuming i unlock the bootloader myself)
also can anyone confirm if the differences between US/EU/ASIA models in the radio bands is due to different hardware or to software limitations?
more to the point, if i buy the europeane model, could i be able to flash the asian radio to get the 850 mhz 3g band?
pls can anyone answer :fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed: especially the second Q.
i searched the forums but havn't found an answer
There's no way to do that so far...

don't think so but it is very easy, you only need to flash the proper radio.zip into recovery and you're done..

It won't work. Check the international forum of HTC One here at xda. There are already countless people flashing a EU variant radio on their AT&T, T-Mobile & Asian variants HTC One yet the frequencies still remain the same.
thanks.
I really wish that htc had made it easier to get a hold of this device. most people can't get the 64gb developer's as it's obtainable only in the u.s.
and all the other editions are currently very scarce, and hard to find. and even if you find one, it may not work proparly with your carrier. not to mention that if you travel alot this device won't do because of the different bands in each country.
i appolagize for the rant, but it's really frustuating, i really wanted to buy the htc one.

The Dev edition is only needed in the US.
Which phones support more frequency bands than the One?

[Q] how to recognize a fake htc one or model?

hi my father got me a brand new htc one from europe from a shop and i wanted to know if there is a way to make sure its the real deal or if it is a European model or an american model?
if anyone can help me with this im kinda of new to android phones
is it possible to know from the imea of the phone?
Hardware-wise there's only one real HTC One, and then there's the Chinese copy with dual SIM and removable backside. The difference is in the device CID which restrict you from installing any RUU on it. However the only problem I can see you facing would be the APN settings, if your cell operator APN values is not in the rom you will have to type them in yourself.

I have the same problem. I checked under the "beats" logo and I've found the following PN07210 but no "801e" or something like it.
Can anyone help us with that? Don't know how to check the mid
Turn off the phone. Power it back on and hold volume down and power. It'll throw you into HBoot. If its the normal Android recovery you have a problem. If its the white screen with Pink lettering then you should be good.

still cant find it isnt there another way to identify the model when i go into model name all i see written is htc one so not sure if its the american variant.
Take a look at the back of your phone. Below the "beats" logo. Check for a code like: PN07... or 801(e or n)
After finding it, go to the second thread I posted before and check on the image posted there which version is yours.
yes got it, it says pnpno7120 is there a difference between the usa or European one?
regarding updates and such
and is there still a way to know if its the american variant?
PN07120 is the american version.
The main diff is the radio frequency bands.
European version: 4G LTE - 2600MHz
American: AT&T and unbranded: 700MHz
T-mobile: 700MHz
Regarding updates the american may have some delay in updates but if it's the unbranded it may not take long, the branded versions may take a while. But u can also install european roms on them.

I got a fake HTC One claiming to be an 801e too, I was looking for a secondhand one to buy. Please what can I flash it with to be rid of all the fakery on it? It doesnt respond to fastboot commands, but it does to adb. I just need to get the "Shenzen" crapola off of it. I've eaten my humble pie and want to make the most of a bad situation.
Any help would be welcome.

You can't flash anything for the HTC One on your fake phone. Your best option is to return it or live with the fact the you have been scammed.

[Q] GSM phone to run on CDMA network

Hola Comrades,
it's my spring break and i thought i'd start a project to keep me busy.
I purchased a Sony Xperia Z - unlocked, and I'd like to figure out what I need to make it work on my boost mobile network.
I'm new so i dont have much except for time. would you know what I need to start to make this dream come true?
-cheers

for all i know you would need to take apart the phone and possibly change the components on the mainboard, which would be quite a difficult task ;S

I highly doubt it. even if you did manage to piece it together, you would have to make kernel modifications yourself to compensate for the unorignal hardware. not saying it is impossible, but it will be A LOT of work. Also, i don't think anyone else has done this before, so you will have to think and design everything yourself!
Unless I'm mistaken, can't you go into the phone and type *#*#4636#*#* > Phone information, then change the network type?

I think the C6603 variant has (not sure).
It's in the drop down list, if that means anything? Not that I can test (UK doesn't use CDMA at all).

I dont have any suggestion with Xperia Z. However, Xperia Z1 has SOL23 variant sold by "au" in Japan that has CDMA radio. I saw some unlock SOL23 being sold on the internet. If you get this device, you may have to modify only software related stuffs (since unlock ones have only GSM/LTE unlocked, not CDMA).

[Q] Modifying a SPRINT HTC ONE to act like an international one?

Well I have been told that my Sprint version of my HTC ONE M7 wont ever be able to act like and international version, well why cant it ?
If its a partition problem cant we just modify it? just like sdmerge400 modified the partitions of LG e400s ????
I would like if someone would make a mod for this stuff (As my phone is unlocked and i have been told that GSM is now enabled. Source: Sprint Rep.)
And a fact is that both have the exact same RF chip the difference being that sprint has locked down its phons to CDMA only , Which is unlocked by carrier unlocking (That I have already done )
So i think it must be possible!
(PSardon me, I have made posts like this before but this one is a little bit different.)

Um.... Not entirely sure that's right. You'll want to double check the frequencies for the Sprint M7. Any CDMA band frequencies cannot be used for GSM or LTE purposes.
At least, that is what I was told.
Unlocking your phone will allow you to use the built in GSM functions of your M7, but the CDMA frequencies will remain inaccessible. My $0.02? See if someone wants to trade their international One for a Sprint One (lmao good luck), or sell it and buy an international One.

Sprint M7 cannot be converted to International M7.
Modem chipset is different. Firmware is different.
GSM unlock on sprint m7 is meant only for out of US gsm carrier Some people had success in using it on US based gsm carriers
Max you can do is modify xml files so your phone shows network options like in GSM models.
