Is my HTC One sprint or gsm?! - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all,
I'm rooting my device and I need to know if it is gsm or sprint.
I don't know here I can foud this info.
Can anyone help me, please?
Regards.

Is sprint or one of its mvno partners your carrier?

Do you have a Sim card?
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app

Go into the bootloader and check the device model there. BTW the sprint model has a sim card too....

There are very few carriers that are CDMA, and carry the One.
First, is it AT&T? You can tell by the back. Probably not.
Is the device rooted? Check by installing a root app and seeing if it works. If it doesn't, then we know for (almost) sure that you are on a stock ROM. Is there any bloatware? Check all the hardware/software/provider info in settings.
If you can find no signs of any bloat or carrier marks, you have a GSM.
The only carrier that carries the One that I know of is Sprint.

Code:
M7_UL PVT SHIP S-ON RH
I'm trying to root my device and I need to know this info
Thanks in advance.
Regards.

you aren't providing enough information to us. I'm guessing language may be a barrier.
Unless you are using Sprint, you don't have a Sprint phone.
All other HTC One's sold all over the world are GSM

Need help identifying my htc one version

Hello, I have bought Second hand HTC ONE and I am very confused from all those versions and s-off's (came from Samsung phones)
So first I need help identifying my htc one version (bands etc) as I suspect that I the seller cheated me.
I will try to give you all the information I have so please help me =]
CID:
BS_ US001
Info from htc site:
Model: HTC One
Sales to: USA
Release date: 2013/05/16
Software version:
1.29.1540.17
android 4.1.2
bootloader is locked.
phone is 32gb
can you please tell me what version (European, American etc and what bands it got cuz I am really clueless) I have and weather I can have ota's or not.

Yea but aren't the Dev edition only being sold in 64GB?
EDIT:
How can I know the cid of the phone wasn't changed?
You can't, if someone changed it to the CID/MID of the Developer Edition to flash the RUU then that's what you have. You could change the CID/MID to the EU unbranded handset, flash the RUU and see how that goes?
But yes, the Dev Edition was 64GB only

So if the HTC site says that it "Sales to: USA" I should check the USA variants ? (this is the site that checks your serial and imei if I am not clear enough).
I'd be looking at the unlocked HTC One available from HTC online:

Sounds like the one you've got...

[Q] What is my codename?

Hi.
I have already unlocked the bootloader and rooted my HTC One.
now I want to download CyanogenMod but there are different .zip files for each codename.
I don't know where I bought the phone but I am not on at&t/Verizon/sprint/T-Mobile
I checked in therminal emulator getprop
ro.product.device is M7.
not m7ul or anything else.
if I am missing something, can you point it out for me?
ty
Reader version in h-boot
Sent from my HTC 802w
Dafaq?! It's M7_U
What CM I should download?
m7_ul should be fine, you just won't have LTE/4G

ty
Yes, as I only said you'd be missing LTE/4G
oh ok thanks
one more question, is there a flashable zip for on screen buttons?
eww... look my country not selling the original HTC ONE, their sale the HTC ONE Dual SIM CDMA/GSM
it is support with any ROM that developers cook? thx

[Q] US One unlocked info

hi everyone! i have this doubt: if i buy an htc one "unlocked version" in us, will i be able to use it here in italy with my vodafone operator?
and the unlocked version is the same htc one that they sell here in europe? i mean, the at&t, verizon ecc versions have their own modding limits, the unlocked version can be modded as much as the european version?
thanks

thanks a lot dude! so, basically, i have to check the model id of the european version and the model id of the us one. If they are the same, i can do the same modding, right?
then, with the "unlocked version", i can use my operator here in italy, can't i?
Edit: another question: does exist a 64gb unlocked version?

I think most US models will be PN0712000 whereas European ones will be PN071000 (the LTE models)... non LTE European models will be PN0711000
But what you should check is whether you'll be able to get LTE in Europe, using a US phone, because I don't know if the bands are compatible... maybe someone can give you a confirmation about that.
Thanks i will wait for some infos

really, since you are s-off, you can follow any guide on CID unlock. its a simple cmd line to do it through fastboot.

If you're talking about doing SuperCID and flashing a GSM ROM, it won't work due to Sprint being a CDMA device. However you can GSM unlock your device and use Virgin Mobile, provided the frequencies match (2G will work for sure).
What does virgin mobile use as far as bandwidth?

My m7 os already unlocked and works for sure on t-mobile I have my SIM in as we speak but only works in 3g which my service was on Sprint so I honestly don't mind 3g speeds lol.
But it's to expensive for my liking and virgin mobile is cheaper any help guide etc?

AFAIK, there isn't any method to flash it. I asked how to flash it to Verizon and I got told it can't be done, so I think you're out of luck mate :/.

[Q] Is the Verizon one unlocked?

Wow I am looking into getting a ONE M7, and I am so confused.
So many models.
Basically I am only going to be using it abroad, so I need an unlocked version.
Also, I like to install a clean ROM so I would prefer a variant which allows me to do this.
I found a good deal on a Verizon One M7, but not sure if it suits these needs.
plz help!
Thank you!

Absolutely not. Verizon HTC one are locked to Verizon. Even the bootloader can't be unlocked via htcdev.com.
look for a M7_UL unlocked

Thanks for that! The unlocked versions are expensive. Any other carrier's ONE I can maybe buy and turn into an unlocked version?

If you buy a carrier version you'll have to sim-unlock it using a paid code and if that doesn't work you'll have to s-off the phone to use the sieempi method to sim-unlock.
stay away from Sprint and Verizon variant, you want a gsm variant (M7_UL)

I am looking at ATT versions now (still decent prices). So... hardware wise it's the same as the Google Play Edition? Will I be able to buy an UNLOCKED ATT M7 (which I am looking at the moment) and turn it into a PLAY EDITION M7 (via different ROM)?
* if there's one thing I can't stand is carrier's bloat and so on...

Yes but you will probably need S-OFF
Thank you! S-OFF is something I buy? Or something I do? Or something that I need to ask the seller about?
Thx so much

The way you'll achieve S-OFF depends on what bootloader version you'll have so its basically impossible to tell at this point. On some early bootloader versions, you can s-off for free using exploits posted in this forum (revone, moonshine, rumrunner). Latest hboot version (1.57) will require Sunshine exploit which cost 25$ (but well invested imo)
So when you'll get your phone, try to sim-unlock it first using a code (you must be 100% stock rom to use a sim-unlock code)
Then, If you want S-OFF, do it before updating. Each time you do update the phone to a newer version, you decrease your chances of getting S-OFF.
You'll only need s-off if the sim-unlock code method doesnt work and if you want to do a full conversion of your phone to a GPE version for example.
Thanks so much!!!!!!

Youre welcome
Just want to clarify something here:

S-OFF will not sim-unlock your phone but you'll be able to sim-unlock using another method (sieempi) which require s-off unlike the sim-unlock code.
