[Q] Unlock Sprint Prepaid for Use on MVNO (FreedomPop)? - HTC Desire 510

Hello,
I was wondering if I am able to unlock my prepaid Sprint HTC Desire 510 to use on a Sprint MVNO (like FreedomPop) by rooting using a guide like this. Apparently I wasn't able to activate the phone on FreedomPop because it is locked or "unreleased," so I am curious if rooting it would allow me to use it on FreedomPop.
Thank you for your time!

[Q] How to carrier unlock AT&T the standard way?

Hi I have an HTC ONE from Sprint.
I contacted HTC directly since Sprint was hella not cool with carrier unlocking my phone as usual.
The free methods to carrier unlock simply do not work AT ALL.
I have carrier unlocked T-Mobile and AT&T phones no problem in the past. The phone simply goes through the standard unlock process with the PIN and What not which I have now.
Do I need a Custom RUU to NUKE the complete crap Sprint Restrictions Galore and have a Standard Android phone with ZERO signs of Sprint?
I hate seeing Sprint all over on this thing it's so locked down it almost seems IMPOSSIBLE to carrier unlock it.
It supports the GSM AT&T bands so it should work.

From HTC DIRECT - They Sent me the Unlock Code for my IMEI. They said Sprint has a High Level Encryption Enabled and it must be Normal Encryption to unlock it... Sprint freaks out about me not wanting to pay them Hundreds a Month for their service and won't Help at ALL.

I have worked with some Sprint HTC One's and their no different that the GSM One as far as unlocking the bootloader and flashing roms is concerned. Sprint is a CDMA service and their One has a different partition structure, so it's Critical you use only Custom Recovery / Rom's designed for Sprint.
If your goal is to unlock the phone I would use the sieempi method (choose HTC Amaze as your device).
Then to rid your phone of the Bloatware simply unlock the bootloader, flash TWRP, and flash a custom rom.

[Q] Use Sprint Prepaid Desire 510 on Ting

AFAIK, the HTC Desire 510 (Sprint Prepaid version) is locked from use on other carriers until at least fall 2015. My question is - With unlocked bootloader, root, custom recovery, etc., is there anything that can be done to get this phone activated on a Ting account (they use the Sprint network)? Or is it just impossible because the ESN/MEID is blacklisted for the first year? I don't know how any of that works, so thanks for the advice.
Edit: Should have put a question mark in that title. Apologies for any confusion.

I have not found a way to get that done, and I've been trying for about 3 weeks. Sprint refuses to unlock the ESN because the phone was not active on Sprint prepaid for at least a year.

Convert a Sprint HTC One (M7) to Tmobile network?

Hello.....Does anyone know if I can convert my Sprint HTC One to use the TMobile network? I believe the phone comes with the hardware to support both networks. I have unlocked the phone and rooted it. I installed Cyanogenmod ROM. However when I put in the T-Mobile SIM, I am getting an error.
There are some similar posts, but I can't say I understand or follow them. Any help would be appreciated.

Getting a GSM carrier phone sim unlocked to use verizon?

Ive seen that using a Verizon phone makes flashing/rooting difficult. But i have the reverse problem and I cant see to find any answers.
I have an international HTC One M7, CID tmob101, it is from germany.
I live in the US, my normal carrier is verizon, and i would like to take my current sim card (verizon) and use it in my HTC.
I have already unlocked it if that helps, some input on to if its even possible would be nice.
Cheers
