[Q] Sprint Google Edition Conversion - Sprint HTC One (M7)

I am looking for what would to do different or if there already is a guide for a Sprint HTC One Google Edition Conversion.
I know of this guild that is for GSM but I'm sure that the MID/CID an the RUU install will be different.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2358781
If anyone can point me into the right direction or let me know if this is even possible. If it doesn't work I would have to use a ROM like Hyperrunner's Cyanogenmod/Google Edition mashup found here:

Thank you for any help you guys can give!

You can't, it's only for GSM phones. But you can use CM or AOSP ROMs in tgr Sprint forum

Pooo figured as much. Thanks!

Why not just go with a GPE rom instead of trying for the whole conversion?

Gsm m7 Rom on sprint.

I'm sure this has been asked but can you flash an aosp Gsm m7 rom on Sprint? I know some of the bigger guys are making Sprint specific builds now just wondering. Thanks.

Is this the correct forum for the GPE HTC One?

Hi guys,
I just ordered an HTC One GPE today, and plan to unlock it and root it when I get it. Is this the correct forum for the GPE? I'm sort of confused on where to go for ROMs, recoveries, and the like. I know it's based off the AT&T HTC One, since it has that model's radios, but obviously, it's not the HTC One with Sense. Am I in the correct area?
Thanks!
Yes I think so.

Thanks. Do you know if TWRP recovery is for the m7 or m7att? Not sure if there's a difference or not.

I don't think that there is a difference. Here is the TWRP you want:

Thank you! What kind of ROMs can you flash on the GPE? Does it not matter either?

Too late it just shipped literally an hour ago... Haha. And I'm already with AT&T on a family plan, or else I would!

Apologies for posting again, but I have one more question: when I get the GPE One out of the box, will it have the same bootloader as Nexus devices? So I won't have to S-OFF or change the CID?

Some Q's

I was wondering if this was the HTC one international section of xda? And I also have the att version of the HTC one and was wondering if I could flash the international Roms/recoveries, with 0 problems. If so please tell me without being mean. I'm coming from an s4 and I'm just a little confused. Because I never had to flash roms from other carriers than att. Thanks for any help.

What about recoveries? Do they work as well?

Yeah, you can use the twrp of the One (i advice the 2.6.3.3) and some roms are compatible, for example the ViperOne is compatible is the best rom (for me) on xda

I had twrp on my S4 2.6.3.0 I believe, I've used it for a while and I enjoy it. Thank you guys for the help. And I agree viper is a great Rom I ran it on my one x when I had it. Like I said thanks guys! I'm not new to rooting I'm just new to this whole att phone using foreign phone firmware! I just thought I'd ask before jumping right in! Thanks again

confirmed what i thought then, want to keep my htc one with sense (hence the move away from nexus5) so i guess its just the waiting game then until they release it for stock One.

U will get the official Sense update by end January. BTW official CM11 nightlies are available
Or you can unlock,flash custom recovery and use a sense based 4.4 custom rom.
The developer edition is Sense, Google Play edition is AOSP(mostly)

I thought the Red One was CDMA (Sprint/Verizon) is yours a GSM Model ?
In the UK my gsm handset was purchased from phones4u who I believe had the exclusive on this colour.

but if you want to unlock the bootloader and get started now it's not to hard

Yes you can. Get s-off first and then a follow a guide. It's quite simple

i forgot to ask above but what actually is the benefits of the developer addition?
Personally i dont see any benefits. It gets updates a little bit sooner but nothing big. If you get an actual developer edition device though you get 64gb of storage and unlocked bootloader

Ok thanks,
Think I will just wait then, device is running really smooth anyway and don't think I'm missing much by not having 4.4

Will we ever see a compatible GPE ROM?

Will the Sprint HTC M8 ever see a compatible GPE ROM?

Just tried to install and it failed twice. A quick search of Sprint in that thread brings up the OP himself saying Sprint and Verizon aren't supported
