Firmware Question - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I want to flash a GE rom and it says to flash the firmware for that rom for the best results. I'm on T-Mobile. Now what I would like to know is am I only supposed to flash firmware specific to T-Mobile or can I flash the firmware specific to the rom I want to use? I have S-Off and an unlocked bootloader already. I tried reading firmware flashing guides but they're a little confusing.

Use the Sneaky guide and flash the GE firmware.
After flash the GE rom
p.s. With the GE firmware, you can boot sense based rom too

And that won't affect me getting service with T-Mobile if I flash the firmware for that specific rom, correct?

No RUU yet, but there are stock nandroids around here... I'd link but I'm mobile and on the run!
Does that mean that I can flash thosr nandroid ruu and get official updates? How can I flash back to the stock kernel?

Hi
Greetings,
IMO
You can get updatesafter flashing those nandroir backups and these backups already has a stock kernel you do not need to flash stock kernel later

Flashing custom ROM does not flash firmware.
And since you're S-Off you can flash any firmware you like, check our @vomer's guide: (in the firmware section): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2365506

S-off with different firmware / rom

Ok what's the risk... I'm running Android revolution ver 31. I haven't updated my firmware. I'd prefer not to have to flash a whole different ROM to gain S-off if in can avoid it. I know it's recommended to be on same firmware and ROM base, but what's the risk of just S-offing like I am?

But, wait, you have the s-off or not?
And what do you want do?

No I don't have it yet but I'm running a ROM based on 3.62xxxx firmware but haven't updated my firmware to that yet because I don't have soff.
Wondering if I'm running a risk with ROM and firmware not matching when I attempt to soff.

Yep, you need to be on the same base, and the closest possible to your own rom. Just restore your stock nandroid and you'll be good to go

Converting to GPE Edition, RUU or Bigxie method?

Hi guys, I wanted to try the Google play edition ROM and I have between doing some research but I'm still a bit confused.. Is there any difference in using the RUU method (which looks much more complicated) and just flashing bigxie's GPE ROM? Which is easier and better? Hope u guys can answer my questions and thanks in advance..

Dont accept OTA if you install a custom GPE rom, specially if you are S-ON.
On RUU you can install OTA

Isn't bigxie's Rom is totally stock GPE so it's ok to install OTA?

No it is not. Custom roms are not meant for OTA>. You can update on your peril.
