[Q] HTC OTA Update rebase hboot? - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

From my understanding, the new T-Mobile OTA to 4.4 should bring us a new version of hboot and radio.
According to a firmware flashing post in the main HTC One forum, wifi calling is baked into T-Mobile's radio.
Now that I want to go to a 4.4.2 custom ROM, I have two questions.
How do ViperOne and InsertCoin manage to incorporate Wifi calling if the functionality is baked into the radio? Or does this mean they have the new radio and I will get all the optimizations supposedly to come with a new version?
I understand that Hboot version 1.56 is coming with 4.4. I'm currently on 1.55. Does this have any implications on me updating? Should I wait for the OTA update then convert to a custom ROM since technically, if I do it right now, I'm on a different base?
I'm really confused since this is my first HTC phone. My old Sony never was this complicated.
If I said anything wrong could you please explain? Thanks!

Anyone?

I have installed InsertCoin 7.14(KitKat based) on my HTC One with bootloader 1.55 as my One hasn't received the update. No issues there. Sorry I have no idea regarding ur TMobile issue

[Q] GPe Radio on a T-Mobile One

Hi guys, I couldn't find an answer using search so I'm turning to you for some help.
I converted my T-Mobile One into a GPe One. I'm still running a T-Mobile radio from the latest stock Sense available to T-Mobile. My question is, can I flash a GPe radio or will this brick my device? Since the GPe One is specific to AT&T.
Any help clearing this up will be appreciated!!

You should be fine although now the OTA for 4.3 is available you might want to flash the radio for that which can be found in this post
Yeah pretty much any radio will work, as long as it's not a sprint one lol.

I followed this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2358781
to convert a t-mobile HTC One to Google Edition. Worked flawlessly, I even just got the OTA update to 4.3 (although I have not applied it yet, there may be an issue with the camera - trying to find more info)
You obviously have to do more than just the above post to get to GE (S-OFF, etc.) so if you have any questions I can probably try to point you in the right direction since I just did it.

(Q) Stock 4.3 back to 4.2.2 - help needed

Hello again
I got my sprint HTC one and update with OTA to 4.3 and did root to it.
I would like to know if there's a way to go back to the version I got the device - I think it was 4.2.2
Thanks

If you took OTA then it probably updated firmware as well, which from what I understand breaks TouchPanel for the older ROMs.
Unless someone comes out with a patch for their 4.1/4.2 roms to make touch panel work with new firmware, I don't think the touch panels going to work...

[Q] Unlock Sprint HTC One

Noob question. If I unlock the bootloader of my stock Sprint HTC One currently running Sense 5 and Android 4.3, could I receive an OTA update for Android 4.4 like the unlocked Developer Edition does? Basically is there anything I can do to retain Sense and update to 4.4 ahead of Sprint's schedule? Thanks.

No and no. You don't want to change your CID, it's what people at the international forum do to receive faster updates(debrand), cause if you flash a GSM ROM you'll brick your phone.
All you can do is wait till someone ports it to Sprint(@gruesomewolf has a working ROM), or wait till Sprint releases the official update

[Q] Converting to 'stock' GPE ROM

The only GPE ROM I've seen doesn't work on Sprint, since it is not GSM. If I use simunlock, will I be able to install a GPE ROM that has OTA updates from Google?
Thanks in advance!

You could install a CDMA GPE Rom, or AOSP Rom. There are many to choose from, Some Stockish, others not so much. Poke around the Original Android Dev forum.

Nocturnal's GPE ROM worked for me and I was SIM unlocked on a GSM network. I was on v4.0.6 though, not sure about the latest version.
Although you won't get official updates from Google, the ROM is updated frequently. Recently @gruesomewolf (who is the developer of the ROM) shared a screenshot of him running 4.4.4 and said it should be ready for release soon.

I'm sorry but converting this device will not work because they are essentially different from the international version due to the inclusion of cdma radios. You can install a GE Rom but that's as close as it gets to getting a GE experience
