I recently upgraded my phone and gave my trusty Hero to an out of town girlfriend. She went to sprint today to have it activated and was unable to get it done. She tells me they attempted to register it on the network but were unable to do so. They say this is because it is rooted and flashed with a custom Rom.
It has the July 08 ASOP rom by jaybob. If anyone can give me any help, I'd be greatly appreciated. I'm wondering if I need to talk her through the process of returning to stock.
Thanks in advance
You need a sense based rom I'm pretty sure.

If you want her to have a completely stock, unrooted phone, you need to "ruu" it. You will find the ruu file and instructions in the development section.
Other than that, you can flash any sense-based rom (infinite fx's, liquid's), and that will let you activate it also.
If she will be taking it into the sprint store, I recommend ruu, tho.

I had no idea that you needed a sense based rom. I'll talk her through flashing it. Quick related question. I am using clockwork recovery. I am under the impression I may not be able to properly flash a sense based rom with this. Or am I absolutely wrong.
Thanks,
You guys are saviors.
they need epst in the dialer and diag witch is only in stock sense roms.

You can flash a sense rom with cwm. I flash my nandroid backup of stock sense with it all the time.

I may be Wrong but you should be able to Activate it over the phone... I think Sprints number is 1-800-639-6111! Also if I were you I'd probably do what the others Advised and Flash a Sense based Rom, Try LiquidSense, or the Fresh Roms are Also pretty Good!
Good Luck!

I figured it would, but wasn't Positive! Thanx for Confirming!
While discussing this custom rom in other roms' threads, I came across one for the MB886 with CN localization.
I was able to download it and flashed. But before doing so, looked at the archive and noticed it had a /data directory with suspicious apps in it. So I wouldn't really recommend anyone actually flashing it for use until someone with knowledge took a look at it.
Interestingly enough, it does flash and seems to be working, I cleared data/wiped before booting it.. Take note that it's is not officially supported by slimkat nor is it available on their site.
EDIT: We have a working rom now thanks to Technofreak, check it out here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=49622265
I finished compiling it to see how it goes. Will post ROM if is good.

Mobile Data is not even working for me. Yes it does have trojans and I woudnt download this rom. Did Data worked for you when you installed this crap? Ok I went Further guys this is actually a build for xt907 devices and NOT mb886.
Please delete the Links to this Chinese Rom from this forum and from the Cyan thread. THis Rom Contains Applications that require payments from the Google Play and its Developers. It contains apps like
Android Tweaker PRO
Root Explorer
NexMusic +/Plus
and others
Ok to my Fellow forum friend @clockcycle and others wanting this ROM I have made an Modified version out of this Chinese Rom which works 100% without any lag and is working great. I will make a thread for this one and there is also and right now is the one I use as it looks lots as Validus without much Clowns as @skeevydude like it. lol
Seen very solid to me and is my and will be my daily drive (For now) lol
Also there is one I compile together but since time limits I havent been able to test it. This one should have more options and few then other fixes to options that came after my Modified version
Will explain more at the Developers thread

Yea I was really surprised to how lite "SLIM" the CN version of the rom was. But didn't trust to install gapps, login or install any apps. I also wiped /data after first flash before the boot. Downloading your version right now.
Hi guys,
I have an HTC One which I had flashed with Cyanogenmod 10.2 and I now want to go back to Sense. I Would like to install Android 4.4 Sense 5.5 (I think!) Or whatever the latest is that is stock.
I have flashed a phone only once before, 6 months ago so have some understanding of what I am doing, but not a great deal.
How do I know which zip file to download please and how can I find it? I am in Europe (England) and my phone provider is Three.
I tried to install this and it failed so I restored my backup. "bigxie_m7_GPe_KRT16S_odexed-signed.zip"
I have TWRP 2.7.0.1
Thank you for any help,

Like it came from the factory please.
Sorry, just noticed that my first post was not clear;
I tried to install this; "bigxie_m7_GPe_KRT16S_odexed-signed.zip" but it did not work. (I had been following a YouTube vid) so I retored my backup that I had made.
When you say "from the factory" . . . I don't want the phone provider (Three's) software bits in there. I would rather just the Google Sense stuff.
So I think I want Android 4.4 (KitKat) Sense 5.5 . . I think!
I have just restored my phone to its Factory Original software that I backed up when I first flashed the Cyanogenmod 10.2 in there. So I am part way there but really I would like the above/latest 4.4 software.
Thanks, hope I'm not talking too much rubbish as this is all new to me.

Yeah you've lost me. So are you saying that you want just stock sense without all the carrier modifications? If so, then use the ARHD rom. It removed all the carrier bits and it's now based on Sense 6.

OK, I think I am learning something!! Google Play Edition is Google software and Sense is HTC software?
Is HTC software based on Google software or does HTC write their own software?

All android manufactures (well, almost) create their own skin on top of Android. It's still Android, but heavily customized.

For Stock Google Play Edition (no HTC sense, 4.4.2): http://www.androidrevolution.org/downloader/download.php?file=Android_Revolution_HD-One_6.1_GE.zip

Keep in mind that our lockscreen will say NO SIM CARD--SPRINT, and the built in messaging app will not work.
Not sure what it is, and someone made a fix for the no sim thing on my old device. but for the texting you will need to use a third party app.

Yea I tried that ROM it was great I loved it but since I have a Harmon Kardon edition m8 when I played music with the screen off the music would slow down so I got off of that ROM. I read through pages looking for a solution but nothing worked so went back to sense.

You will have similar problems with CM roms. Look for the HK asdp files, you might be able to flash them on top of any rom. I haven't tried, but last night when I used CM12 the music sounded like garbage anyway. I have since stuck to HK roms, but they are all Sense. If you find anything, post back.

first thing I notice is that it says must be s-off or you will brick. Also, if it requires s-off, it might be altering firmware to match HK, but you already have that being an HK device unless you did the conversion to a regular M8 or GPE. Just take a few and read that thread. (it is for verizon so read carefully)
I found the adsp files for HK but the thread says not flashable for aosp roms

I thought that might be the case, those files modify the firmware, so I can see why they wouldn't matter on AOSP unless the rom specifically has a use for them. I am sure you can run the regular or the dev edition ruu and install an aosp rom without sound issues. But you would need to be s-off.

Ok, so the international model. So if you want stock Android 6.x, my personal recommendations are Android Ice Cold Project (AICP), it's very feature rich while being as close to stock as possible and it has nightly updates. It also has really great performance and battery life, I haven't had any lag and get at least a day out of my battery. There's also Cyanogenmod 13 although it hasn't been updated for a month or so to my knowledge. And lastly another good one is crDroid. I personally recommend AICP because of the almost daily updates, and features, I have it installed on both my M7 and Nexus 4. I haven't had any issues and if there is an issue it's normally fixed the following update.

Android Lollipop with the Google Play Editions are pretty much what you'd get on the stock Nexus experience. A lot of Google apps, and pure stock Lollipop without any modifications. Some do have some modifications to them, and some don't.

Cyanogenmod 12.1 is really the only Lollipop ROM that I have used other than the Sense 7 roms, they have almost nightly updates for their Lollipop builds. Google Play Edition+ is another great one for 5.x, you can pick between stock Play Edition and the developer's custom build packed with features.

If your primary rom is Sense-based then simply download this kernel, ElementalX, and flash it to your main rom. It has some pretty good features too that you can pick from during the installation. There also is a GPE build for Play Edition roms as well. Reboot into the rom just to make sure everything flashed smoothly, and then reboot and you can then boot into your different roms in multi boot. Just make sure that if you change your main rom in Multiboot that it has to have this kernel, I haven't found any other one that supports it. There also aren't any Marshmallow kernels just yet either, sadly.

Hmm. I'm currently busy until around 10-11pm EST, whenever I get done and back home I will take a look around to see if there might be anything. If it's Marshmallow based though there isn't any custom kernels yet. Wouldn't hurt to make like a GPE or Sense rom your primary one and simply leave it there, I do that. I use MIUI 7 as my daily driver but I have InsertCoin Sense 7 installed for my main rom so I can have 2-3 other roms installed. Just some advice if that helps

I think, what would work best for you since you prefer stock-based roms, is download the Google Play Edition+ I linked earlier in the thread, install it as a secondary rom and also flash the ElementalX kernel under Flash Zip. Afterwards go under Advanced, Multirom, Swap Rom, and leave it as Swap primary and pick the GPE+ and let it run it's course. Might take 5-10 minutes so I'd leave it plugged in and charging if you are below 50-60% battery. Then just boot into GPE+, do a quick setup and leave it as a basic installation. That way you can keep your Carbon Rom installation with all of the data and apps, and just pick that every time you boot your phone. Plus it's easier than messing around with different kernels on Carbon trying to find one to make it work and you have a fallback stock rom in case an update or something messes up Carbon. That's exactly what I did with MIUI and InsertCoin.

Yeah, that happens sometimes with mine. Not all the time though, mainly when I'm streaming music in Spotify or Pandora, or if I've been on it for 10-15 minutes on Twitter, email, etc. Sometimes when installing a rom and first booting it, it gets upwards of 50C but cools down after I let it sit for a little while. Also, just throwing it out there because I love the app, if you have $7 you're willing to spend MyBackup Pro is fantastic for backing up everything if you change the rom you use the most. Like data, apps with the app data (not every app backs up the data though) and just like everything else. There's also a free one if you don't care about app data which I'd actually recommend trying that out first. Spares a hell of a lot of time for downloading apps every time. I promise I am no way affiliated with them, like I really feel bad "advertising" them even though I'm not. It's just my favorite backup app xD. Titanium backup is another good one but I haven't used it's backup stuff. Mods you can feel free to edit this if you don't see it fit.
