I have an HTC One. It was originally a Sprint phone that was flashed to cricket. Is it possible to flash back to Sprint and have it work with Sprint again? I'm far from smart in this stuff and could use all the help in the world. lol

I'm going to test the JSPL. But I need someone to cook a rom. Is there anyone in the Whitestone community that knows how to cook? I'm looking for a stock verision of WinMo6.5 and Manila 2.6. The updated Manila is simply to see if the rom takes or is it's still the stock VZW rom. Thanks in advance.
Well looks like conflipper is back. So hope he can push to get HSPL. I can cook that EV kitchen, and upload a ROM. But will have to do it tomorrow.
SIM unlock¿?
Hi Im a noob here, so sorry if my question sounds stupid,
I recently bought a htc Imagio and had it flashed to cricket, and was wanting to use tmobile or cincinnati bell SIM with it, If I some how managed to put the stock whitestone rom it would the GSM part of the phone be unlocked?
You flashed it to CRICKET? Is it possible to flash it to SPRINT?

Yes it most certenlly is, although I would advise to have the SIM unlocked first, if you or you know someone who has been with verizon for more then 60 days have there account swiched to your phone then call verizons globel number and ask for the unlock code, then have the persons phone switched back to there old phone, then go to a unoffical sprint or cricket store and have then activate your phone on sprint, it should cost you 50 or so, good luck...
Just bought the HTC One from Bell Canada and need to unlock the bootloader and flash TWP and Root. That easy and all, but for the life of me cannot figure out which HTC One I have and which forum to go to. Usually all Canadian devices are AT&T versions but I guess the Canadian version for the HTC One is just the international?

It doesn't matter. ALL GSM (except china) phones are compatible with each other.
This is the right forum.
Hopefully the moderators here on XDA will merge them all soon and we can get on with our lives

The TWRP and CWM found in the AT&T forum is a repost of the ones found here.
you can flash anything from any htc one forum except the sprint forum as they are cdma not gsm
Thanks all, rooted and TWP installed. All I need to figure out is how to get the extended power menu on stock.
There's a mod but I think it requires a deodexed rom. Not sure
yeah i think it does that why I haven't tried it yet. Want to stick with stock for now.

really, since you are s-off, you can follow any guide on CID unlock. its a simple cmd line to do it through fastboot.

If you're talking about doing SuperCID and flashing a GSM ROM, it won't work due to Sprint being a CDMA device. However you can GSM unlock your device and use Virgin Mobile, provided the frequencies match (2G will work for sure).
What does virgin mobile use as far as bandwidth?

My m7 os already unlocked and works for sure on t-mobile I have my SIM in as we speak but only works in 3g which my service was on Sprint so I honestly don't mind 3g speeds lol.
But it's to expensive for my liking and virgin mobile is cheaper any help guide etc?

Thank you for the link but for the first link it says only on gsm network based phones.

AFAIK, there isn't any method to flash it. I asked how to flash it to Verizon and I got told it can't be done, so I think you're out of luck mate :/.

Hi,
I have unlocked HTC One M8 with S-OFF also; originally for Sprint but now using in India (purchased through ebay).
Can I install Andoird 6.? I have installed GPE 5.1 and it is always showing Android 6 update downloaded but unable to update. It just gets rebooted.
Any help!

There's currently only 1 Android 6.0 ROM that works on Sprint M8 and it is quite buggy since it's an alpha release. Here's the link:

Thanks, saw this. What is different about Sprint HTC from normal HTC. Are the hardware fundamentally different in some ways?

Sprint has some "extra" stuff installed on their phones that requires a ROM with Sprint compatability to work. Flashing the normal HTC firmware onto the Sprint hardware will cause a brick.

Just wanna put it out there, the ROM is not so buggy. I have been using it as my daily driver since a week. Never had any issues so far, battery life is also great.

Besides radio, there's some apps inside that Sprint put in, like the Kids Mode app and some other Sprint bloat. I don't know much about this bloat since I was never on Sprint's network.

The Marshmallow Rom port for Sprint isn't buggy at all. I was using it with Xposed and it ran great. You definitely can run as your daily.

It's not just extra stuff, it's the phone structure even system partition. Basically Sprint network is cdma but it has a option to run gsm when Sprint customer travels international. But it's a cdma global phone. International M8 is totally different than cdma global and hence you won't be able to run international ROM unless developer made a port for Sprint version. Many peopl bricked their phones and wasted many days fixing it, including me lol.. it's not worth trying

I used to have Bad Boyz ROM for my daily drive. I tried GPE ROM with Android 5.0 and all other Sprint compatible ROMs including Viper ROM. I also tried to flash international ROMs, but had lot of issues (one of the issue I can reacall is system partition was screwed up after flashing - which caused issued with playing music, music wouldn't play continuously). Then I got a new phone from Sprint with Uh Oh protection guarantee and never rooted it ever since. It works like charm, though I struggled not to root in the beginning.. Have a Nexus 7 for all the tasting stuff . Until HTC releases Android 6.0 I have no issues living with Lollipop, its still great!
