Rookie question - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Trading my gs4 for a Verizon HTC one today. Based on what I am reading it looks like the Roms from the general HTC one Dev section work on the vzw phone as well. Is this really the case? Every phone I have had before this was a big no no to use other phone version Roms so I wanted someone with htc one experience to clarify for me. Thanks!

Actually, Verizon is not a GSM variant of the HTC One, so most ROMs in here won't work. I think you should check: http://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-htc-one
If you do end up flashing a ROM from here make sure it says VERIZON compatible; most ROMs already state "except for Sprint", but that also means Verizon AFAIK.

Looking to buy the new AT&T n1

I'm Looking to buy the new AT&T n1.
I just had one question will the roms for the n1 here at xda work for the at&t version?
When I say the at&t version I mean the one that has full at&t 3g support. Not the unlocked t-mobile version.
All Nexus Ones are unlocked.
All the ROMs will work just like they do on the first batch of nexus'.
Before you purchase do some research regarding the Nexus One signal.

Yes I have done quite a bit of research on the nexus one. A buddy of mine has one and signal is great in my area!
I guess this thread can be closed now since my question has been answered.

HTC One dev addition more support or less?

I know that the intuitive thing would be that the dev addition would get more support, but is it possible that the AT&T or Sprint or T-Mobile will get more because more people will have it. And I know not cases, and they are the exact same body. I mean ROM support.

I think that the insides are exactly the same so they (dev and regular unlocked) should be able to run the same stuff. The only thing different is that the dev edition is supposed to have 64gbs and an unlocked bootloader. Big whooooooooop... that's so easy to do with HTCDev anyways...
My question is: is there honestly going to be a big difference btwn carrier based devices and the international? Shouldn't they be able to run the same exact ROMs and stuff?!?
Well with my current phone (att optimus g) you can't run the sprint ROMs on att, but then again the att version is slightly differently shaped. The reason why I can't run sprint ROMs is because of different partitions. I hope this doesn't occur with the one, because then the dev version may have less support that a regular one.

Another plus is no att bloat and the dev edition will receive updates quicker

Would it really be quicker? i mean once HTC releases an update for the dev phone wont it be the next base for our devs to use to create roms? We wouldn't be using it in its stock form anyway. Bloat isn't an issue once rooted. Are the specs any different from the International and ATT version? I'm hoping its identical.
Hopefully we can get supercid so we can install dev ruus if needed. I think there is gonna be a lot more dev interest in this one (pun intended) That means more brains for s-off. Hopefully the recent qualcom s-off for the ATT One X will help out.

Well my point was in stock form it would be quicker for those who own it, me included since I ordered one this morning
And the radios are different in the international versions

This is why I opted out of getting an AT&T branded one and went Unlocked from HTC. This way when HTC pushes it to US market I won't be waiting 2mo for AT&T to inject their adware.

I almost did the same thing as you (I previously used the international unlocked versions of the Galaxy s2 and s3 for this exact reason but I was bummed that I couldn't get LTE on the S3 since the unlocked version only supports HSPA+). However it turns out that you can just unlock the bootloader on the AT&T One and install ROMs from the regular/unlocked One forum, and you will still have working LTE on the proper AT&T bands. Frankly I am thrilled to finally have an AT&T LTE phone that can use ROMs with the most current code from the international community that is much greater in size and therefore will have a much better ROM choice; it's the best of both worlds. Two of the most popular ROMs (TrickDroid and ARHD which are based on 1.29 firmware) specifically say in their respective OP's that you can install their ROMs on all U.S. variants of the One (except for maybe the Sprint model according to mike1986). During the installation, there is a script (made by Patrics83) that will install the AT&T specific files, settings and such.

I hear ya, I had the AT&T S3 and the wait was gruelling. Since then I've gotten over having to have the latest updates. Might be because Sense5 isn't so bad. I didn't think I would miss LTE when I had my Nexus 4. Bonus of the unlocked One using AT&T LTE out of the box has been great

T-Mobile One to Dev Edition?

I haven't owned an HTC phone since the Evo and needless to say, quite a bit has changed. I'm hoping to turn my T-Mobile One into the Dev edition and I'm just wondering about the positives and negatives. I'm assuming all future updates on the Dev edition would come directly from HTC correct? Also, will my LTE or any other features be negatively affected if I make this change? Lastly, would the entire phone be wiped during this process?
Thanks for the assistance. I still gotta read up on this SuperCid stuff.

Sprint HTC One

I see a few posts talking about changing Model Id numbers and or converting to a Google edition. Can this be done on the Sprint variant? I'm very disappointed that there are no roms for my phone. I am contemplating returning the phone and getting an S4.
There are roms for you phone in the sprint HTC one section
And to answer you question, no.

Wow do I feel like an idiot. I didn't even realize there was a specific forum for the sprint version. Thanks bud.
