Originally, I posted this on the beginner's thread, but no one would help me
So I decided to make a new thread.
I have an unlocked HTC One 32GB purchased directly from HTC, and discovered that it could not use the wifi-calling function of t-mobile. So, I managed to unlock the bootloader and root, but don't know what to do now.
How can I just add the wifi calling option in the settings, and restore the apps I lost while unlocking the bootloader?
Also, can I get official updates from HTC, even though I'm rooted?
Please, make the answers user-friendly (I'm very new to this community and android- first android phone!)
Any help is very much appreciated.

You need a ROM that supports wifi calling. After you unlocked your bootloader, you need to either flash the stock T-Mobile ROM or a custom ROM that has wifi calling built in. Keep in the mind that a lot of the newer ROMs using 4.2 base do not support wifi calling yet so you need something with a 4.1.2 base. I'm using ARHD 9.4 and wifi calling works flawlessly. Hope this helps.
Having bought a Moto X off eBay that's preloaded with an American Movil build, I'd like to upgrade that to something more current. Assuming I can figure out how to flash it in the first place - haven't had any luck getting a reply to this proposed flashing process yet - what build should I apply given that it's an XT1058 device intended to be used on AT&T's network. I can apply the AT&T ROM, of course, but that reportedly comes with bloatware.
And in an ideal world, I'd get my OTAs from someone other than the carrier; currently America Movil, maybe AT&T in future. Is it possible, for example, to apply the Developer's Edition ROM to an XT1058 device, and if so, would I be likely to be upgraded more quickly? If not, does anyone have any recommended builds that are compatible with AT&T's network that are better than the AT&T ROM?

I would suggest unlocking the boot loader, flashing either cwm or twrp recovery and finally flashing superuser. Keep in mind that unlocking the bootlaoder will void your warranty.
The benefit to this route is you will maintain root access, also you can easily flash Roms without the problems that cone along with pwnymymoto and safestrap.
Cm10.2 is around the corner and there's already a T-Mobile ROM that has the camera update included

I would like an answer to this, if anyone knows.
I want to get a colored one through at&t, but I want the developer's edition rom with their OTAs. Kind of like how people are making their carrier HTC One's into google play editions.

don't think there is a dev edition rom to my knowledge. I haven't really read much about people saying the dev editions had anything different besides and unlockable bootloader which you don't have so you will only be able to flash roms through Safestrap if you haven't taken any OTA's yet.
While it should have been obvious, it's worth letting people know that the AT&T ROMs disable tethering. Again, most people probably know this, but coming from Nexus devices it hadn't even occurred to me. So if there is a dev edition ROM floating around out there where this isn't disabled by default, I'd love to see it.

There is a Dev Edition ROM and it is the exact same ROM as the T-Mobile ROM which is the only Retail ROM.
There are two different 4.2.2 T-Mobile firmwares, the TMO_RETAIL_XT1053_4.2.2-13.9.0Q2.X-116-X-17-57_MR1_CFC.xml.zip and the TMO_XT1053_4.2.2-13.9.0Q2.X-116-X-17-6_CFC.xml.zip
How do I tell which I'm looking for? And if anyone has a copy of the one I need, since the source is currently offline, I would much appreciate it.
I've searched but there is hardly any info about this model. I have unlocked the bootloader and wanted to add a custom recovery/firmware, but not sure which (if any) are compatible with XT1050.
at the very least I how there is a generic, stock moto rom that I could use that does not rely on the carrier for updates?
not sure if it helps, but my phone currently has 139.4.6.ghost_row.acg.en.us
and is 4.2.2
well i couldn't find a stock rom for it but i contacted another person who has the same model and he said the cdma based roms he tried worked for it. so i guess thats better than nothing
I have a rooted TWRP US Celluar Moto X2 (XT1093), I am trying to find out if there is a 6.0 or 6.0.1 ROM that I can run on this phone?
I managed to rework one of the stock ROMs - Here's a link to the Team USC site where I have it posted:

While I hate to link offsite, you will probably get a little better feedback for a US Cellular based phone there.
