Ok I got my Sprint HTC one Sim Unlocked and Super CID, Rooted and Booloader unlocked.
I need to get it up on the ATT network, it reads my Net10 sim, but wont pick up any other network except the Sprint.
Do I need to flash a GSM rom to get it to work or is there another way please help.

If you want a brick, go ahead and flash a GSM ROM.
In seriousness, what have you tried? You should be able to switch the phone's network mode under Settings -> Mobile Data -> Network Mode. For AT&T, you'd probably what GSM/UTMS only. Failing that, you can try dialing *#*#4636#*#* and under Phone Info, changing the network mode there to something with GSM. No guarantee that those settings will stick across a reboot though.
Still nothing

Thanks for the reply, I know I could brick my phone so I havent tried a GSM rom. But i have tried all the settings that you stated above and nothing sems to work. My HTC does read the NET10 sim I put in but just wont pick up the network. I am thinking a few things that either the Sprint RUU I am running does not allow the phone to pick up other networks, or maybe the band frequencies are not installed only CDMA. Or maybe the option to choose GSM may be locked somehow on the phone and maybe needs to be unlocked. These are only guesses thought. I do know for sure that the phone does give me options to choose gsm, lte, cdma and more but when choosing it does not get signal only CDMA. I even tried choosing other radio band frequencies with no luck. There has to be a way.
Is it possible to flash GSM radio bands without messing anything up? Not sure thats why I am asking. Or is there a sprint ruu that includes GSM bands.
Please help if you can.

Wait, you're not sure if you're SIM-unlocked? Your phone should be capable of picking these things up by default; you could talk to Sprint cusotmer service and see if the phone's global mode has been enabled.
Yes

Yeah my phone is Sim Unlocked, Super Cid, and rooted. It does read other sims but wont pick up other networks such as GSM. This really does suck. I cant call Sprint because I got the phone off of someone who no longer has Sprint and their contract was never finished. So I Sim Unlocked it myself.
My Conclusion
I come to beleave that it is not possible to have a Sprint HTC One work on any other networks except theirs. I have tried every possbile solution that this site has to offer and nothing. It also seems to me that no one has come up with a soultion either. I have searched everywhere and no one has a strait forward answer. All that I can get it to do is recognize other sims once sim unlocked, but whats the point if you cant get it to pick up other networks such as GSM.

You have to enable domestic roaming and turn roaming guards off. Than go to network and select the network operator MANUALLY. This way it'll work, but it was stated by some users that you'll loose signal from time to time and will have to redo the process again (select network manually)

I feel that way about locking onto AT&T.. or connecting at all for that matter. But I HAVE used T-mobile for about 4 months, albeit losing the signal, and having to re-register from time to time. you can make it work. in *#*#4636#*#* go with WCDMA preferred.. 800Mhz freq.. I wasn't even s-off when I was making it work..so obviously no SuperCID either.. i have since obtained both, and STILL cannot connect to AT&T.. the Network Selections are just greyed out...
Hello, I have a Sprint HTC One running perfectly on a GSM company, called Telcel here in México. Recently I wiped everything and started again, and with the stock rom (Sense 6 4.4.2) I wasn't able to choose the GSM mode, I was stuck on CDMA mode without service, until I flashed again the latest firmware (5.09.451 or something like that), and all the problems were solved, currently I'm running ViperOne rom for the sprint variant, with the latest firmware and everything is perfect, hope this help.

First is the unlock process, to do that you first should install a 4.2 RUU, then unlock the device company. After, root and install a recovery, flash the ROM that you want, and flash the required firmware, depending of the version of android. That's all, if you want more help add me on skype, I speak spanish.
Good luck.
Hi I have a HTC ONE MODEL: HTCPN072. It is a sprint phone I just baught on the web. The problem I have is that the cellphone cannot connect when ever i put in a Jamaican SIM Card in it. When ever I put in a GSM sim card it is saying 'Invalid SIM CARD. 4G service are unavailable as the sim/UICC is invalid'' I dont know if u can Help me please because this phone is a brand new one!
Can this phone be used in Jamaica? on 2G and 3G networks?

Is the phone sim unlocked? I don't know how it works with Sprint but that would be the case with GSM providers
If it's Sprint, it's CDMA.AT&T and T-Mobile are the only GSM providers in the US. However, it should work there if you get the SIM unlocked. The SIM unlock code is formulated based on the IMEI, so there are three ways to get it:
From Sprint. Probably the simplest, but tricky if you're not the phone's original owner.
Pay a site or unlocking service with the algorithm that decodes it from the IMEI. Usually runs around $10-$20.
Try the steps in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2586704
You can also try this app, but it only works on rooted phones running the original ROM:

Good luck.

Bro, A CDMA PHONE CANNOT BE UNLOCKED. IT WON'T EVEN WORK ON ANOTHER CDMA CARRIER LIKE VERIZON. ONLY SPRINT SIMs WILL WORK.
Make sure u buy a GSM phone if u plan 2 use it on another carrier.
But the phone uses GSM! It picks up the network here but I just cant get the unlock box

Then it simply isn't a Sprint handset. CDMA phones can only work on that particular network. The phone is custom-made just for that network
I have an unlocked AT&T xt1097 but it won't register my T-Mobile Sim card. It registered for about 3 minutes, got a welcome to T-Mobile text and that was that. My phone number shows up in settings, but it shows I have zero service. I've reset, and rebooted several times to no avail. My sim works in a nexus 6 so it's not the sim. Imei os clean. Does anyone have any ideas what it could be or how I could get it to work with my T-Mobile sim?
When you say unlocked, unlocked Sim or unlocked boot loader?
sim unlock. As far as I know there's no boot loader unlock.
Could it be that the imei isn't in T-Mobile's data base since it's an at&t moto x?
Edit: went and put the imei in to tmobiles imei checker and it couldn't figure out what device it was and if it was okay to use on their network. Now I just need to verify with T-Mobile and see if they can register the imei.

did you ever get it to work? i am experiencing the same issue. it connects to my friends AT&T network fine but with t-mobile it just says "cant register" etc,etc.
Change the APN settings
I have had a problem like this with my unlocked phone and AT&T, but when they set it up in the AT&T store they fiddled with the APN settings. I had to do the same to get my wife's unlocked Lumia 635 to work on the T-Mobile network. Try the values used in the link attached and see if it works.

I was able to connect to tmobile network some times, able to make calls. No data connection at all. I played with APN settings and everything else. any help..?
I have an unlocked ATT x1097 and it works just fine with tmobile.
You just have to MAKE A NEW APN SETTING.
When you put a tmobile sim in it, it will automatically create a couple of T-MOBILE apn settings. Just leave that as is and create a NEW APN SETTING with same info you can find from Google. Select that as your data apn. And reboot the device for the best result. It should fixed the problem.
For those of you whose sim does not register into tmobile network; i think it could be one of the following reasons:
1. Original ATT modem does not work well with tmobile frequency in your area
2. The device is locked (stolen, non-payment, etc)
3. The device is broken
4. Your SIM card is damaged
As long as you are at the home screen with tmobile sim, your phone is GSM UNLOCKED, and it iwill never lock again.

Just wanted to say thank you. My T-Mobile SIM wouldn't connect and I even went to the T-Mobile SIM store to get a new SIM Card but it didn't help. As you stated, adding a new APN setting was the only thing that worked.
For those of you who want to unlock your Moto X, I purchased a code on eBay for about $8 and received it within 6 hours. I would post the link but I'm afraid it might be considered spam.
What type of data signal are you getting? LTE?

Nice. Where did you get your unlock code?
I don't know about OP but I have always used swiftunlocks and have had great luck. Got my N6 from ATT unlocked through them without issues as well.
http://www.swiftunlocks.com/unlock/motorola-at-t-tmobile-worldwide
I noticed that sometimes phone picks up apn without issues and sometimes you have to restart so I just restart every time I make a change to be on the safe side.
Just in case anyone else has the same issue as OP, you should use the
Code:
epc.tmobile.com
APN, NOT the
Code:
fast.tmobile.com
one.
The fast.tmobile.com one would not let me register on the network. epc one did immediately.

Hey, I know this post is kind of old but I am currently having the same problem with my moto X 2014 going from At&t to T-Mobile, were you able to get it fixed and if you did, what did you do?
Any luck? I've just come accross the same issue. Got phone unlocked, and bought a new sim and activated. I'll get like 3-4 minutes of service randomly here and there, but about 99% of the time no service. Tried multiple variations of APN settings that I've found online. No luck
Fixed all my seriously annoying connection problems by flashing the 4.4.4 modem.

Someone help!! ...plz
Anyone ?? T-Mobile reps are mostly useless, and keep telling me that my device may have been ' re-locked ' to AT&T after a hard reset !! I know that's not the case because I've thrown in a Vodafone sim and it recognized it ! The sim unlock was purchased from SwiftUnlocks and the phone took it in one try w/o any issues!
Now, I can't even get voice to work... All I see is ' No Service ' and when manually trying to register with T-Mobile, it says ' unable to connect to the T-Mobile network. Please try later '
Someone please help out!!
Hello, I would like to start off by congratulating all the users and devs for building a nice community around the HTC Desire 510.
I have a Cricket HTC Desire 510 that I have just recently installed recovery and root on.
I have contacted Cricket and acquired the 8-digit Network SIM Unlock PIN, so that I can put my Virgin Mobile SIM Card in the phone and not be stuck on the "Network SIM Lock" page.
This is where I am stuck and need some advice, I would like to get this phone working in Virgin Mobile.
I have the Cricket phone carrier unlocked now with my Virgin Mobile SIM card in the phone, but I am unable to get any signal and when searching for Network Carriers in the mobile data menu, it only shows AT&T, Verizon, T-Mobile, Metro PCS, and Edge Wireless.
Will I need to unlock basebands, flash a new radio, firmware or something else? I am still on Cricket stock rom, kernel, firmware, radio, ect.
I have heard of tools like CDMA Workshop and DFS Tools to flash phones with, but they usually referred to phones without sim cards in those tutorials.
Thank you for your help.
EDIT: It appears that even though I removed my Virgin Mobile SIM card from my previous phone, it still works normally, which may mean that what I am trying to do is not possible, please let me know, thank you.

It's not possible to do what you're trying to do! Virgin Mobile will not accept any phone that's from another carrier trust me I've tried it with a Samsung galaxy and they would not do it!
The MEID from your cricket phone is not in Virgin Mobile's system and they're never going to put it in there either!!
Edit: The SIM card in these types of phone's are only to get you an LTE signal... You can remove the SIM card and you'll still get 3G and be able to fully use the phone just without LTE so really putting the SIM in another phone isn't helping anything.
Has anyone been able to SIM / network unlock Sprint variant of LG G4? For international use? for domestic carriers?
The phone appears to be locked. I tried putting GSM micro SIM and putting phone in to GSM mode. Got an icon about invalid SIM in notification tray. But no prompt to unlock. Also no menu in settings to unlock via network like my note 3 had. Even worse, no menu to select GSM Network operator in the settings.

I know , that is the theory, I am curious if anybody actually tried it. I am concerned about the fact that I don't see a menu to select GSM network, which was there in Note 3
it almost looks like the phone can roam on GSM network using Sprint SIM, but all the menus that would allow presence of different SIM where removed.

Friend called Sprint and they unlocked his phone OTA. Now when non-sprint SIM is inserted it no longer complains about invalid SIM, however it will not connect to any networks in USA and still no way to see a list of networks or do a manual selection of network. That menu is still missing. I suspect the phone will now work outside of the USA in automatic network selection mode only, which may not be a good thing some times.

Doesn't matter what you try, you cannot use Sprint's phone on AT&T T-mobile here or any US GSM carriers. When sprint unlocks it for you, then you can use it outside of US on GSM Networks.

You must be new here. Domestic gsm has been unlocked on most modern Sprint smart phones. Just in the years I've been with Sprint ive unlocked the Moto Q, G2, S4, and now the G3 for ATT and straight talk. Ive read of several others having the same ability. The s5 can also be unlocked but only one guy knows how but you gotta pay him for it. Kinda ****ty but it actually works.

You didnt listen... Sprint phone works 100% for att.. They jt blocks it at the software level... But my friends has unlocked all the newer sprint phones till now.. I dont see why he shudnt be able to do it here
Any chances of unlocking when outside US? I got my phone from Amazon and got it shipped in my country. Tried calling them but they said they only unlock activated phones. Also tried various sites that offer unlock codes but since G4 is not asking for unlock code, they can't do anything.
Do I have any other options?
For those still trying to unlock, I've followed this post for unlocking the G3.

I can't confirm, since I don't have access to any AT&T SIM at the moment. If you're already rooted, you can try it out, but make sure to back up the files.
Another update: After updating the APN, my data finally worked. LTE is impossible at the moment since the this doesn't support the LTE bands here in my country
Warning: Don't try to disable auto activation for now. I got the Security Error and still on the process of fixing it.
