Sorry, but there seems to be a new post every other day about people borking their Sprint phones because they flash a Rom from the "HTC One" forum.
PLEASE READ CAREFULLY:
-------------------------------------
ROMS from the international forums WILL mess up your phone and you will be lucky to fix it after that! I get you want the shiny new 4.2.2 but those ROMS will not --I repeat-- WILL NOT WORK ON THE SPRINT HTC ONE.
Sure, they used to, but once they moved onto 4.2.2 they will not flash.
I feel this should be sticky in every thread on the Sprint HTC One forum.
People are still doing this?

Would this be helpful to anyone? It's kind of on/off topic... A direct link to HTC's copy of the HTC One update for Europe?
And by a direct link, I mean an HTC URL?
I mean, the proof is in the pudding...by which I mean the constant stream of "bricked plz help" threads.
So all of these stupid people that aren't reading prior to flashing and you think they are going to magically read this? I really hope this prevents a few but I doubt it.

From what I've seen all the major ROM's say in some fashion or another that it won't work for Sprint so it's mostly people just not reading. Maybe they could make the font about it possibly destroying phones if you are on Sprint bigger...and flashing...surrounded by naked women. Then maybe people will see it.
Unless your a Dev or know what your doing I wouldn't flash non sprint things... I know the partition labels and boot.IMG stuff so I have gotten things to work but not for a noobie

I have never seen so many people flashing the wrong roms as I have seen with the HTC One...If people would read then they wouldn't have these issues but we all know they won't read this either. You bought a Sprint HTC ONE, why would you not come to the SPRINT HTC ONE Development section to find a rom???
Sooo.....I flashed this rom called "NOTFORSPRINT" and now I'm stuck. Help me NAO!

No no no... You don't want to do that! First. Go to Apple.com, that part is right, but you have to download their Symbian Factory ROM. Then put your phone into DFU mode open ChevronWP7, and while holding shift select the .ipsw file you just downloaded and you'll be up and running with the latest version of WebOS in no time!!

So I had an old cyanogen mod flashed on my phone and nothing was going wrong. I think I flashed it in late November 2010, early December 2010. So I was fine with that and then I got bored. So I flashed the Dilli ROM and the market stopped working so I flashed to Serendipity and that's where the real problem started. Every time I would get a call, I would lose service automatically and the call would fail. I just thought it was a problem with the way I flashed it. So I then flashed the Phoenix ROM hoping that would fix the dialer problem but it didn't. I am currently on the newest phoenix ROM and I can download apps from the market, send and receive texts, make calls and even use the internet. The only thing I can't do is receive calls. I know when a call is coming because the phone starts to ring but before it shows me who is calling, it automatically loses service and fails the call. Has anyone else ever had this problem? Is there anything I can do? Any information would really help. Thank you!!

The fact that you flashed multiple roms without knowing how to flash back to stock is idiotic. Flashing back to stock is the one thing you should know how to do because it can save your phone.
Read this ENTIRE guide and follow it step by step or you will continue to run into the problems you are having. These anomalies cant be diagnosed by us because your phone probably has files from numerous roms on it by now. Flashing back to stock and using a master clear allows you to diagnose issues much easier.

Hey noob, how about next time you post in the CM7 sticky instead of opening a new thread?

Because I'm an idiot
That's most likely the modem. Find out what modem CM7 uses and as long as it's the same base as you're using now (i9000/i897), find the CWM for that modem and flash it.

You call that a slam? Tearing him apart? You must be a liberal. The ROM-specific stickies are here for a reason. All these posts outside the stickies just make sharing that knowledge you speak of harder. Why is it so hard to comprehend that if there's a sticky with a dedicated subject that maybe that's where any posts on that subject should go? XDA is also about rules and they exist for the benefit of all.
Please use a search before opening a new thread or post rom questions in the provided Q&A rom thread.

I have s-off. Now if I get super CID can I flash any room I want? I really want to flash viper ROM 1.1.1. Or ARHD 11.5. but I am on sprint and have a very limited selection of ROMs to choose from. I've read over people's posts and I get mixed reviews saying don't do it or do it! Please someone shed some light on the subject for me. Thank you

Again. You cannot flash any rom you want only cdma not gsm. ViperOne is gsm. So u cannot flash this. Check the linked threads.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1548083
You already asked this.
Edit: supercid will allow you to flash roms that are still cdma. Not gsm these are diiferent phones. Like verizon is cdma for example. There is no point. If u really want to use this.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2315549
Again No point for cdma dont do it.

My answer was the same exact thing as his, I only went a little further to explain why GSM phones need it and hence it becomes useless for CDMA phones.
The Thanks button is just to avoid "THANKS" posts in threads. Nothing more. Don't defeat the purpose of why it was introduced.
I tried to install a rom on my htc one, which I later learned was for gsm devices only. This action got me caught in a bootloop. So I tried to install ruu 1.29...the problem is my image version is 1.31.....so I idiotically deleted all my phones data during my attempted installation and it still didn't return my htc one to stock form.I unlocked my bootloader again and reflashed twrp.both work fine.but my pc doesn't recognize my phone when I plug it in via usb.WHAT DO I DO???!!!!
P.S.: yes, I am a noob.:

OK my apologies man, its something on my end BC it won't follow through with the att ruu either... I was Google edition converted so I'll flash the going back to sense firmware then try this ruu again.
If anyone has been able to get this to work on a verizon m8 please let me know what mid you had to change it to or how you got it to work on your verizon m8.
There is another thread opened before this one where I believe some people got it to work on the verizon m8 also I just have not figured out what mid to change it to to get this to work because using the ruu utility from the other thread I always get the 159 image error every time.
This is the previous thread already opened on this subject.
