Hi, I have an HTC One that I bought on craigslist. The phone can make calls and text fine but no data at all. I've done all the resets and programming with Sprint but I have no data. The 3g icon does appear but thats it. Finally the rep said I'm either rooted or flashed, since I know I'm not rooted I figure maybe I'm flashed. How can I tell? I have several codes from them from working withthem today so any of the menus are accessable to me.
Thank you
Edit: Went to sprint and they put a SIM in temporarily to see if that helped my issue. One has to be sent from SPrint Care. Anyway, without the SIM you'll get all kinds of issues so dont buy or sell without it.
ONce the sim was in the boot animation even had a sprint animation before the One animation, was not like that when I brought it in. Also, under data, all the options reappeared. They did not load any software for me. Simply reset the phone again and placed a provisioned SIM in for me. 3g was still down so I have a faulty phone but its interesting what differences that SIM made.

one way to check is to enter the bootloader
Turn off the phone
Hold down the power button and the volume down button until the screen turns on
at the top you should see the status of the bootloader. if someone flashed it with a custom rom it will say unlocked and tampered.

Would this means that my phone was/is a sprint phone from the start and that there is another issue? Settings also shows the model as a PN072.

That is locked bootloader and S-On. Looks like that phone is stock. If you have the MSL I would try ##DATA# on the dialer and go edit mode, profile, menu and reset profile. That will go through handsfree and set it up correctly. If you don't have the MSL call/chat with Sprint and get them to walk you through doing a profile reset/handsfree activation.

Thanks for the help. I've been through all those steps already. My next step is to have them replace it. I just wanted to be sure this phone wasnt from another carrier and was flashed to the sprint network. But like you said its stock so I think I'm all set. Makes sense that if this came from another carrier they would have to unlock it first which wouldnt give that bootloader status.
You can't really tell if a phones been unlocked before since with revone u can lock the bootloader like u never unlocked it in the offer place. Can't u also edit the hboot to mask it?

I think I remember when I had the Evo LTE that you could do that. I guess as long as the sprint rep can believe its a phone issue and use my insurance I'll be fine. The sprint rep from phone tech support said they could tell if it was flashed from another carrier but wouldnt say how so I came here. Tomorrow I'll take it into a store to swap it.

You will not need insurance (unless you damaged it physically). If the rep does not see it was tampered with they will warranty one out to you free of charge. I have bought a few phones off craigslist and had no issues with this. You need to go to a full service Sprint Store. The one by me does repairs/warranty exchanges in house.

Mine says Sprint. If I were you I would just flash your phone completely back to stock unless you have a friend at the Sprint store. Then see if your issues are resolved.

Thats the whole confusion for me. Whether or not this phone is a sprint phone or from another carrier flashed over to sprint since I cant get data. The hboot and model number in settings seem to indicate a sprint phone. Very strange to me. Theres no SU on this or any indication of any tweaks which would defeat the purpose of this being some custom ROM and the HBOOT is locked. Seems stock already. Just weird. I'm pretty confused.
I'm taking it to sprint to try and swap it. If not I will check other methods to get it workign. S-off or dev unlock and put another ROM on it.

Are you roaming? I can see if you were roaming it not saying sprint. Just a thought. Other than that maybe someone else can chime in. From what your bootloader says you are not flashed or modded.

Bought an Htc One off craigslist. Guy said he tried flashing it to work on boost mobile didn't work so he was selling it. Took it to sprint to activate, employee tells me since it was flashed the esn had to be recertified and could take up 24 hours. Was messing with the phone later that night and tried to make a call and it went to Verizon customer service. I believe this phone is an Htc One for sprint but don't have a definitive way of checking. Also not sure what steps I need to take to get it back on sprints network. Any help would be appreciated.
Boot into the bootloader and there should be a barcode option or something.. the esn stuff is there..

It can't be done. AT&T uses a different radio tech than what Sprint does so you might mess up your phone doing it.

ok doesany one know if there is a way to shut down the cdma radio on sprints phone ...im trying to use my htc one on H2O prepaid so i need gsm
but it keeps switching back to cdma i have a custom rom and i think i have read about every post on xda by now lol...what i need is a rom that flashes the radio to whatever the developer model has
any other ideas
thanks
There is no way to use a CDMA phone on a gsm network no way at all and to flash a at&t ROM on a phone that is not at&t will cause a brick and will be a pain in the ass to fix my best advice is to sell your phone and by a at&t phone so you can use in h2o because there is no way to do what you are trying to do

Actually this phone has a SIM card capable of running on At&t if unlocked. If u want to use gsm only I think u can go to mobile network and set it to gsm/umts only. As far as flashing another devices Rom/Ruu your just asking for a brick since the mounts are completely different causing a brick

sorry i wasn't trying to be rude im just very frustrated in trying to get this to work lol
I did the following:
SuperCID to 111111
S-OFF using Revone
HTC One Simunlock from viperboy and set it to WCDMA preferred
I did upgrade to 4.2.2 but in order to use the GSM part of the phone you have to use the the oldest radio I can't remember 1.29 something
Down part:
GSM signal keeps disconnecting
Will have voice and text but no data
Everytime the phone reboots you have to keep resetting the APN
Have to keep searching for the Network
I have flashed a T-mobile RUU and a AT&T RUU and the only options they get greyed out are the options to choose what network you would like. Word of advice if the antenna is originally CDMA leave it with CDMA because it really does have some really bad issues with connecting to GSM towers. I was using MetroPCS which uses T-mobile towers but I just flashed my phone to metro and I have a solid signal all day long with no drops I just did not have MMS.
I hope that helps

Supercid is basically changing the hboot model number when u supercid 1111111 it lets u flash any ruu and things like that. I believe there was a thread on how to do it way back might want to check the android developement section or original. Bewarned that the at&t and tmobile ruus are different from ours so there's no telling what will happen to ur phone

Ok, before I get "noobed" or told to read, I've read so many threads my head is starting to hurt.
I have an HTC One that I bought from someone on craigslist. I bought a "bring your own phone" kit for Straight Talk that says it's for "4G LTE and HSPA+".
I have rooted the phone, have S-Off, it says it's Unlocked on the bootloader screen, running hboot 1.56, radio 1.00.20.1108.
When I put in the sim card I don't get any message about simlock
Is this going to be able to work or am I beating a dead horse trying to get this thing working? I'll flash whatever or do whatever I need to do.
If it isn't going to work, I'll just throw it on ebay I guess

there are two diff locks that a carrier may administer to keep a device on there network. one is the sim lock, the other is the cid. in your case,since youve already sim unlocked (if you havnt you need to.) you would need to do the cid unlock to be able to use your phone on straight talk network. whoch was step by step in the link i posted. wrapping this all up, cid unlock allows you to switch from the sprint network to straight talk. without it it wont work. so after you cid unlock...youll be programming your phone onto straight talks network, which us explained in their kit or you can call their cs #
also, calling their cs # is adviseable due to this....all the phones ive flashed over were from spriint. they do not have sim cards. never needed to put a straight talk sim in. only had to program the phone through epst,,,which is what allows you to input ## command codes through yiur dialer. all i think you should have to do is cid unlock and program onto straight talks network through epst.
Ok so I used the Super CID and it changed it to all 1's, now what? Do you have any ideas what the next step should be to getting this working on straight talk? I'm sorry for being "noobish" but I'm just at my wits end and am giving up hope on this working.
guess there's nothing left to do but sell it on craigslist or ebay....because I'm guess the Sprint HTC One on Straight Talk just doesn't work or at least doesn't work with the sim cards available in my area.
I have tried everything and no dice

wanna use in straight talk ATT sim
anymore news on this?
Can someone please confirm that they actually have a SPRINT HTC ONE on STRAIGHT TALK?
i've been reading and reading and cant find a dfinitive answer or guide on how to actually get the SPRINT HTC ONE on straighttalk, all i've read so far are people who say "it cant be done" and other people saying "it can be done"
There is no definitive answer I have done unlock and changed radio and os as well as hboot and still nothing I just don't think it can be done for straight talk

ST has a CDMA option. You cant use this with CDMA but the GSM bands don't match up that well so you'll be left with spotty or no service. Not sure if you'll get LTE but 3G shouldn't be problem

Sadly, no. It's not possible since Sprint is CDMA.
You can unlock the SIM card slot which will let you use SIMs from international carriers. See the thread in the main Sprint HTC One forum.

Go to default.xml, and find sku_id (which is somewhere near the bottom) change the value 10 to 42, and you should be getting H/3G icons again.

Ive been through hell with this, this past week.
Sprint m7
You would think once you root, rom, s-off, cid unlock, sim unlock and bake a cherry pi for it the damn thing would work with ATT compatible sim cards.
NOPE. well, sure, you can SOMETIMES trick it to get onto the network, but it doesnt stick, its not fast, and theres no data.
WHAT A PAIN.
I want to sell this now, but Im not even confident it will work on international GSM networks, even though the sim is unlocked (and cid unlocked!)
i dont think ill ever buy a non-international phone again. Well, my one X+ att flavor worked out ok, but there are so few roms for it... oh well...

You would think once you root, rom, s-off, cid unlock, sim unlock and bake a cherry pi for it the damn thing would work with ATT compatible sim cards.
NOPE. well, sure, you can SOMETIMES trick it to get onto the network, but it doesnt stick, its not fast, and theres no data.
WHAT A PAIN.
I want to sell this now, but Im not even confident it will work on international GSM networks, even though the sim is unlocked (and cid unlocked!)
i dont think ill ever buy a non-international phone again. Well, my one X+ att flavor worked out ok, but there are so few roms for it... oh well...

You might have to downgrade to an older version of android though, because when I tried it, it didn't work. I believe I was on viperone at the time of testing.

i am fully vested in bringing this model phone back from whatever hell its been through now. stayed up till 2am last night reverting this thing back to stock after it went through all the OTA updates. I am an HTC one m7-wls master now
i wont be home until tomorrow, but i will be trying the fix in that link. i really hope it works.... i made a crystal clear call yesterday before i lost the network, so i KNOW this phone can talk to the towers near me on H2O plan... i just have to get the stupid software right.
OK, so I am done.
Recap (without getting boring)
I did the sim unlock, and also the "fix". FINALLY got the phone to register on H20. And I do have data too, but its GSM only (very slow). The only way I got any of this to work is be fully 4.1.2 stock.
It is set to WCDMA preferred.
also, even though I did the "fix" it still loses the network after a reboot.
I am so done with this phone. I am updating it fully and throwing it on ebay. F this thing! No more sprint phones for me, thank you.
Hello my friends i post this alongside actively searching for the solution, other day i bought a desire 510 a11_ul android 4.3 locked and branded to o2 (o2__01), i went on to sim-unlock the device with success and then the bootloader, all i get is emergency calls only, im so far lead to believe it has something to do with the ruu? i just want the thing working on 3uk, i need pointing in the right direction, any help will lessen my headache and wud be greatly appriaciated, Thank you

First find out what your carriers settings are, like the APN settings. See if it's gsm cdma.. You can try going in the phones settings and checking them out open the dialing pad and *#*#4636#*#* and look around.
hi, thank you for your response, that menu was the first thing i tried lol, i put an o2 sim in and i got it to show the H symbol next to the signal bars which still had a cross on them, it also auto installed the apn settings other than that, no change

You cannot unlock the SIM card with a code from anywhere online it doesn't work that way because number one the SIM card in these phones is only to allow the phone to get LTE internet speeds number two the MEID is how the phone gets service not just the SIM card cause you can remove the SIM card and the entire phone will still work just without LTE number three you can't insert another carriers SIM card and then have the phone ask you to enter the unlock code because the phone will never ask for that code when you put another SIM in there it will just say invalid SIM card and nothing else and number four, the phone is unlocked via uicc and has to be done on the carriers side not some unlocking websites code....
Wow I had no idea, what do I do from here then? Is Contacting o2 my only option?

Well you said you sim unlocked it with success in this first post of yours right here and that's why both me and @dip_spit asked how you did that, you didn't say it wasn't legit then.

Do you think he successfully sim unlocked his phone bro?!

No. Because many people have gotten the unlock codes and not a single person can find a way for the phone to ask for it. Of course he IS in Europe and their rules are different there so he may have, who knows.
Sorry it takes so long to reply I still have this problem I'm goin to email the site

And you are expecting the "site" to do what exactly?
Why don't you just take your phone to your carrier and have them program it to use their services?!?!

It could be a legitimate unlocking site that he used and expected it to work with his 510 (which they probably don't say that they don't support it), in which case he can probably convince them to refund his money.
Or it could be a scam site, in which case he'll have to do a charge-back or something to get his money back.
Also, he could take it to his current carrier but given the evidence of previous users, they won't unlock and program it for their network because the likelihood of them being able to is slim to none.

It seems like he's screwed then. I unfortunately don't know how or what settings to use to help him with the issue. He did say "should I contact o2?" So I asummed he could contact them I guess.
