Can I turn the Sense One to a Google Play Edition - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I am about the get an HTC One, but unfortunately my carrier does not offer the Google Play Edition – the one with the Sense Android. I wanted to know if there is a way to install the stock edition of Android from the GPE devices to the stock Sense device. I know that there are many many cooked ROMs, bit I prefer the pure Vanilla Android Experience  without the bugs and glitches of the Cooked ROMs (no offence to their developers).
Thank you.

It is possible.
You need to S-OFF and Unlock your bootloader and probably change CID (guide's in the forums).

Is there some dump of the GPE ROM or something?

You can flash Sense roms on the GE and GE roms on the Sense version.

Google Edition roms?

I had the Team Nocturnal GE rom on my phone.
I really like the vanilla android look.
I totally liked that specific rom and might even flash back to it, but I was just wondering what the best/newest/most functional google edition for Sprint HTC One rom is.
Thanks folks.

Looking to buy m7 to put pure android on it. good idea?

Hey guys,
I'm looking to buy an HTC one m7 to put a kind of pure android on it. I saw stock android on the Nexus 5 and I want to have something like that but with the m7. Is that possible? And what is the prognosis of future updates in the community for custom android versions? Pretty much wondering if it is foreseeable that I will be stuck on a version of android in a year or so?
Thanks guys
You can get a Google play edition of HTC One or you can use custom Rom based on stock android
GPE edition updated within 15 days when Google release new update !!
from HTC One

Vanilla Lollipop ROM?

Hi all,
I'm looking to flash my m7 with vanilla android, as much as i like sense i prefer vanilla.
What ROM do i need for this? i can only find a google edition that i guess will not include sense, everything else seems to have sense in the filename: PN07IMG_M7_UL_L50_STOCK_UI_MR_Google_WWE_5.11.1700.3_LRX22C.H3_Radio_4T.30.3218.21_10.33I.1718.01L_release_403339_signed.zip
My CID is HTC__001, if there is any other info needed please let me know!
thanks in advance
bump?
As you mentioned yourself, Google edition will be most vanilla, Skydragon is based on it too. Other than that, anything CM based will do the trick, at least it won't have Sense. CM12 nightlies are out there, and ie. AICP or Stelix .

Return HTC One M7 from google play edition to aosp or sense...

Hello, I hope this is the right section... my girlfriend has an old HTC one m7 which used to be mine and I gave it to her converted to google play edition with Lollipop 5.1, the phone is not rooted.
I did this years ago so I don't remember the specific HTC one procedures (I was coming from a samsung back then) but I converted an unlocked tmobile htc one lte to google play edition.
I'm now looking to update this phone to Nougat, especifically crdroid nougat which is aosp/lineage os-based.
I would also like to know how to return to sense if possible.
What would the steps necessary for this be? Do I have to convert the google play edition back to a normal htc one in order to install aosp roms or sense roms?
Thanks in advance.
Can anyone help?

if your phone is running the latest gpe firmware, simply flash twrp and your aosp rom. You don't want to flash the sense firmware back since the nougat roms work better with the gpe firmware.
