Hi, i want to unlock htc one sprint, but i need SENSE rom, so what rom i should chose? can i flash m7_ul stock rom to it? or i have to use some specific one?
now when im inserting sim card to phone i get error saing something about 4G network and sim IMSI mismatch or something like that...
im S-Off, Unlocked, and Supercid.
Is your phone originally for sprint? If so, them you can ONLY use ROMS for m7spr, and the stock ROM can be found in the Android Development section.

can someone plz clear few things up for me..i know this,if i have super cid and i do..i can upgrade my firmware with non harmon version or the h.k version..but when it comes to flashing roms from the att or the tmobile or international threads im bit confused...as long as i have cid set tpo super cid can i jus proceed flashing the rom like i normally would in the sprint section ??or do i need to change the cid to att cid number before flashing there roms?or do i jus leave thecid set to super cid?i have yet to try another carrier's rom cause im still uncertain on exactly how to do so..i dont understand why we need roms ported over to the sprint section if all we need to do is change cid to super cid and flash away..surely im missing something ...i have super cid now and the htc m8 sprint h.k phone sprint phone....can i just go to any carriers development threads and choosewhat ever rom i want?..man i hope so cause that opens the door to soo much..i relize this is a newbie question and if not posted in the correct secrtion on xda id prolly be banned for good..lol..but i am in correct section so plz be easy on me
Well you could flash other roms but unless their files have been set up for sprints network you won't be able to do much there are still other differences as well between each rom for each carrier

Same question, except I don't need my phone to work on Sprint. I'm using my device Internationally. Could there be any issues?

Well you'd also have to make sure the partitions are set up correctly as well as you could end up with boot loops or worse ie: android revolution 22.1 will boot directly into bootloader unless you use a correct sprint kernel that allows for it to boot. If anything try using bad boyz rom and apply their sim unlock method. (provided your using a sprint phone internationally)
This thread is just for sprint m7 version 4.x.x
There is another way here SIM UNLOCK BY elvisypi but when you try it on the odex rom it says vDM had stopped so you cant unlock unless you flash another rom or do S-OFF so I decided to find a way and here it is.
LET'S START
1 - flash this via recovery [MOD] SIM UNLOCK for 4.3
thanks to chas123 because he's the one who hacked HtcOMADM_SPCS (which is also used in Sprint HTC One SIM Unlock Helper) making it possible to unlock!
2 - Flash ODEX-HtcOMADM_SPCS.zip
3 - Install sim unlock helper.apk and do as usual.
in case you have a problem flash the STOCK-‫ODEX-HtcOMADM_SPCS.zip then redo the steps . :good:
help
where i can find this app: sim unlock helper.apk
Great
Thank you!!:good:
My phone is S-ON hboot 1.57, this method worked for me!!
thank you very much:laugh:

After updating to lollipop you can use this thread to unlock it again if it locked .
Do not believe the hype...

Yeah, I think you should think twice before you upgrade, because I basically documented my attempt to SIM UNLOCK on Lollipop 5.0.2 Sprint Stock ROM and it does NOT work...
So if you have SIM UNLOCK on anything before 5.0 then STAY THERE until someone documents it actually working for 5.0 and higher, because I have not seen anyone having it working yet...
Once again, I am on Sprint STOCK ROM but you can read about it in the other thread...

Can you post your phone details? I tried on my phone and it did not work so now I am trying another method and will post update
Sprint HTC One - M7_WLS S-ON
HBOOT 1.61.0000
RADIO 1.01.20.1225
OpenDSP 35.120.274.0718
OS 6.23.651.6
Just wondering if you have a different HBOOT or if you are running LATEST Stock ROM, because I keep seeing threads of people SIM UNLOCK phones that are NOT Stock ROM Lollipop.
So if you got it to work then I guess someone else can try again, but I am also trying another method and trying to get a SIM from Mexico because it might not like DOMESTIC US SIM cards since it is SPRINT

yes its the same as you . go check it right now , I have add some changes.
hope it works for you :good:
What worked for me was to just remove the ODEX file completely, so I flashed the modified OMADM APK and then removed the corresponding ODEX file. No more VDM client stopped errors. This was on 4.3.
hello there
My htc software information is attached below.
Its running android 4.4.2 and sense 5.5.
Do I have to downgrade it to 4.3 and follow the instructions ?
I haven't unlocked boot loader and rooted the phone. But I have done this in few other htc mobile so this is not a problem for me. And do i have to install certain roms before following above instructions.
i think i was able to sim unlock it, but getting invalid card. I have two Sprint HTC One M7s
Phone #1 (Getting invalid card)
HBoot 1.57 S-ON
Radio is 1.01.20.0904_2
Phone #2 (Works with TMobile SIM)
HBoot 1.55 S-OFF
Radio is 1.00.20.0315
Is there a way to downgrade the radio or am I missing something?
i think lollipop works but need to flash an older radio. i couldn't get the sim unlock to stick (by helper.apk and terminal command); but once i downgraded the radio, the unlock sticked and was able search for carrier...
Will this work with 1.6 hboot running resurrection ROM? Thanks.
I've been trying to Sim unlock my HTC one m8 sprint hk edition, tried most methods but I got all confused by all the different methods, and still trying to unlock it.
I'm running Viper ROM, lollipop, s-off, rooted and supercid.
Would anyone please help me or guide trough a working solution to my problem please.
Ps: I have a Simple Mobile Sims Card which I'm using to verify the unlocking, thanks in advance!!

radio problem
So i did all the steps to unlock my htc one m8, and I made a mistake flashing a radio which didn't belong to my device, now I'm constantly rebooting, and can't seem to find the stock radio that I'm supposed to use.
Unfortunately I made the big mistake to not backup my stock radio.
Any ideas on how to fix this problem would be gladly appreciated I'm willing to give a small donation as well thanks in advance.
My stock CiD was 654 now I'm super cid if that help
Your best bet would be to RUU at this point. If your device is S-off, you can install modified firmware without having to run a RUU. Check out OMJ's RUU/firmware thread located in the development forum.
Also, you cannot make a backup of your radio.
no need to backup your stock radio, just extract it from an ruu.
fixed!
i just flashed a firmware via hboot and got my radio back.
Now i have sucessfully completed all the steps to sim unlock it and did get ''you device is sucessfully unlock'' but still says invalid sim card any ideas?
Install an old 4.4.3 version of viper and try unlocking again
HI,
I bought a m8 sprint harmon kardon phone in India which had official sense and relocked bootloader and all sim working. Then I read all guides and i unlocked my sprint m8 bootloader got twrp 2.7.xx for it and Installed Few Custom roms. I am on viper ROM 4.3 now. It is Misbehaving a lot. I wanted to go back to stock HTC. My question is after searching extensively i cant find proper guide or ROM to go back for my particular device.So many ROMS and RUU i am confused and scared i might brick it. Shud i flash from twrp or RUU? i Dont want to S OFF.
1) How to go back to stock harmon kardon with all sim working in india .I have S on and unlocked bootloader. shud i relock bootloader?
2)which stock Rom to flash for INDIA so all sims will work and i will not be stuck with only sprint sim working(biggest scare)
3)Will i get official OTA updates of htc in india if it is a sprint rom?
4)If not can i install an asian or indian Stock ROM? and will i loose Harmon kardon settings with that?
If i install this RUU Sprint_HTC_One_M8_HK_4.25.654.14_RUU from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2729173
will it be OK?
If i run this RUU http://www.htc.com/us/support/htc-one-m8-harman-kardon-edition-sprint/news/ will i be gettin all sims working on it? or only USA sprint?
I am sorry for so many questions but i dont want to brick my phone.

1. Easiest way to go back to stock is RUU. (you will need to re-lock your bootloader for it to work)
2. If you are sim unlocked as far as I know it's permanent.
3. Yes you should.
4. If they are Sprint compatible then yes. You will most likely loose your HK setting.
Both RUU's you link to are the same, you need to be sim unlocked to get all sims working.
thanks mate
