Hi every one,I know this is a stupid question, i just switched to Android from IOS, i bought a Htc one m7, my issue i'm unable to update it to sense 6
and kitkat 4.4.2, in the setting menu the Software Update option is missing. Software Version Is 3.04.651.2, S-OFF and Bootloader is also locked
i have attached some pictures, i dont know much about these stuff yet. I using it in Pakistan, as i google it the code 651 means its a Sprint US i buy it from Pakistan and working fine except for the Update part. If any one can Help me that would be great. Any other way around i can update it to Kitkat 4.4.2 and sense 6?

Unfortunately you have to be on Sprint's Network to get the OTA update. Here is the RUU 5.03.651.3 which will give you Sense 6. Just follow the instructions in the OP on how to run the RUU, since you are S-OFF you do not need to lock your bootloader to run the RUU.
Here is the link to the Sprint HTC One forum. Keep an eye out in this forum for future updates, generally someone will post the OTA so it can be installed manually.

It should not effect you SIM unlock. There is no guarantee that any process will not brick your phone, OTAs from the HTC and carriers have caused some issues. The best you can do is check MD5 checksums to see if the file has been corrupted during the download process and check the OP for any one who has reported an issue.

Do you have updated fastboot and adb? If not, Minimal ADB & Fastboot Tool
Extract the zip to your adb/fastboot folder
Boot phone into bootloader/FASTBBOOT USB before running ARUWizard.exe
Try with a different USB port and/or cables
If possible change PC's
Hi, I want to know how to do the SIM Unlock with Bad Boyz ROM since I'm obviously it would unlock Sprint to use an AT&T operator.
I don't understand this tutorial
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=52145162
Any help is worth it, thanks.:laugh:
The guide OMJ posted is pretty self-explanatory, you just need to have a device that has a custom recovery with root and S-off to start with. There is one file to flash in recovery, and once you reboot, open the terminal emulator app and enter the commands as shown in OMJ's guide. If you're trying to SIM unlock for use on another domestic carrier, however, you won't be able to do that.

If the app isn't included in the ROM you can download it from the Play store for free.

Unlock the bootloader through HTC's website: http://www.htcdev.com/bootloader
Flash TWRP and flash SuperSU through that.
S-off I barely remember how to do. All I remember was flashing a 4.4.2 build of CyanogenMod and running Moonshine on it.

What error exactly? You don't need to flash anything to get your token simply do "fastboot oem get_identifier_token". You can find all the instructions at htcdev.com/bootloader.
What is your "fastboot getvar all" ? (Don't share your imei/sn)

This is what it shows:
We're sorry, but it appears your attempt to unlock the bootloader on this device has failed. This could be caused by several factors including simple errors in the entry of the unlock token, problems with your device, or a lack of manufacturer support for the unlocking process. Please see the specific error code listed below, and try again if necessary.
Error Code: 172.
Error Reason: CID Not Allowed (MID not exist in Model Rule).

you'll need sunshine (which cost you 25$) to root + s-off + unlock bootloader. I consider it worth every penny
I also believe that Kingroot will provide you temp root (will lost root upon rebooting). I havent use it for quite sometime, dont know if they improved it yet but i doubt it

You can't unlock a Verizon phone using htcdev.com. Verizon asked HTC to block bootloader unlock because they don't want their customer to flash stuff on their phones. So like said above you'll need to temp root your phone so you can use sunshine to unlock your bootloader and s-off
I think I have to sell this one and buy something newer so I can play with it... Thanks!
I lost my HTC One M7 (ATT) variant late last year due to a charger issue frying the mainboard. I finally picked up a replacement last night which is the Verizon Model at a good price and it is in brand new condition.
The previous owner updated to the Lollipop 5.02 version which lives on it now. I have tried every method including the latest Sunshine to get it to root or even temp unroot.
SupeSu
Kingroot
Sunshine
HTCDev (before I knew Verizon locked it down so much)
It is the HTC6500LVW.
Is there any method that works at this point?

You need to use kingoroot to get temp root and then use sunshine to unlock and s-off. There is a thread in the verizon general section explaining in details.

I tried Kingoroot all weekend long and it did not work no matter what I tried.
I was at work today, tried again and it finally did it's thing. I then used Sunshine and got the rest of the job done, and then removed Kingo and put the SuperSu on there and am now happy to report all is good with it.
As for why it did not work in the first several attempts, it is beyond me.

Is it possible to flash a different version of the software on the T-Mobile M9. I unknowingly bought the Tmobile M9 and would like to install the unlocked / developer M9 software over it. I hate the Tmobile logo and noise at bootup.
Yeah, download any m9 gsm ROM and flash via twrp

Hi, I am trying to convert to Tmobile. I bought Verizon M9 because I got a good deal on it and thought since they are unlocked I could just put my SIM in and be working right away. I can make calls and text message and use internet after adding the APN. But I can't get the hotspot to work, hate the Unknown SIM notification and all the VZN apps. To get my phone as close to Tmo as possible would I just have to follow Captain_Throwback's guide and then flash a Tmo rom, or restore a backup, or RUU? Sorry for the noob question

I didn't think you could use a Verizon phone on a GSM carrier network, but if you can that's cool. If your phone is working on the T-Mobile network you can unlock the bootloader and root to install a T-Mobile rom, but you will have to check with the Sunshine thread to see if they have it working on Verizon M9's yet. If they do you can S-OFF, and install T-Mobile firmware and rom. Keep me posted on how you do.
