Hi,
I am thinking of buying an htc one sprint version from ebay. It says it needs to be activated on sprint. Can we unlock it without activating it on sprint?

Just a warning in advance, you are in the wrong forum. There is a Sprint htc one forum, where you will get better help.
Since these are independent devices, you can try to do it the hard way, but to do it legitimately, I think you need to be on contract.

I'm looking for someone who has a unlocked HTC One m7 bought from the HTC site, i'm looking to buy one but i need to get a imei to see if it works at my phone company (cricket). cricket has been bought by AT&T so i need to buy a GSM phone and test imei. If anyone with a HTC One m7 from HTC site unlocked and could provide a imei it would be extremely helpful.

No one will post their imei. It will work fine. I have worked for ATT for years and have activated many off shore devices.
same thing

As long as it is GSM unlocked you will be fine.

Hi Everyone!
My nephew has a HTC One M7 (Model: PN07200) and I believe is for Sprint carrier. However it has a SIM slot, so I was wondering if it possible to unlock it and use a T-Mobile or AT&T SIM card with it?
I always thought CDMA phones had no SIM card, so that's why I wonder if it possible. Maybe installing a T-Mobile radio? Is it even possible to use it with other carriers?
I've searched online, but haven't found any way to do it. Can anyone point me to the right direction?
Thanks!

Hello Everyone,
I apologize if Im double posting this, but I could not find an appropriate spot..
I've currently hit a concrete wall,
my Sprint M8 is rooted, S-off (through Sunshine) and unlocked (so says my HBOOT screen)
Currently on a Sense Based rom, 4.4.2
I've tried putting in my T-mobile Sim card, but no luck or any signal.. I've tried doing the HTCOdam.apk or what ever and did not seem to have very much luck.. Ive tried switching my network to GSM instead of CDMA/LTE, not luck there either. All I'm reading is that I need to complete a "sim unlock" and my phone should start grabbing signal.. reaching out for help
does any one have some advice for me? much appreciated
I believe the Sprint HTC one m8 is CDMA only compatible. Witch means you can't even if you Sim unlock .

It can be used on an international carrier but not another domestic carrier (like T-Mobile).
AFAIK, the HTC Desire 510 (Sprint Prepaid version) is locked from use on other carriers until at least fall 2015. My question is - With unlocked bootloader, root, custom recovery, etc., is there anything that can be done to get this phone activated on a Ting account (they use the Sprint network)? Or is it just impossible because the ESN/MEID is blacklisted for the first year? I don't know how any of that works, so thanks for the advice.
Edit: Should have put a question mark in that title. Apologies for any confusion.

I have not found a way to get that done, and I've been trying for about 3 weeks. Sprint refuses to unlock the ESN because the phone was not active on Sprint prepaid for at least a year.
