Using device for WiFi only - Sprint HTC One (M7)

I'm using my device now as a paperweight for wifi . I switched phones and now this device has no carrier attached. does this mean I can flash any variant of a ROM or do I still have to stick with Sprint ? Thanks.

Still need to stick to Sprint roms unless it has Sprint support.

No it is said that some hardware differences have been found between sprint HTC One and other HTC Ones

HTC IS is a GSM phone that uses a SIM card. Droid Incredible 2 is a CDMA/GSM phone for Verizon. It uses CDMA in USA and can take use a GSM SIM card outside of USA to access and roam on foreign carriers.
Gotcha. Thanks for the reply.
however what about the roms ?
can I use Inc2 roms in Incs ?

No because the radios are not compatible between the 2 and the ROM will have drivers for the Dinc2 radio, not the IncS radio, so you may get the phone to boot, but you won't be able to use it as a phone or get a celluar data connection.

Hmm that's good .
I just wanted to try them out i hope its not dangerous while flashing the rom .

Messing with the radio is one of the easiest ways to brick a HTC, so please consider yourself warned.
There's a reason why the devices that have CDMA and GSM counterparts have separate development forums here. - Evo3d, Flyer&View, Hero CDMA/GSM, Nexus CDMA/GSM, etc

Is this the correct forum for the GPE HTC One?

Hi guys,
I just ordered an HTC One GPE today, and plan to unlock it and root it when I get it. Is this the correct forum for the GPE? I'm sort of confused on where to go for ROMs, recoveries, and the like. I know it's based off the AT&T HTC One, since it has that model's radios, but obviously, it's not the HTC One with Sense. Am I in the correct area?
Thanks!
Yes I think so.

Thanks. Do you know if TWRP recovery is for the m7 or m7att? Not sure if there's a difference or not.

I don't think that there is a difference. Here is the TWRP you want:

Thank you! What kind of ROMs can you flash on the GPE? Does it not matter either?

Return your Gpe and get the Tmo version it has all the radios and just do a conversion

Too late it just shipped literally an hour ago... Haha. And I'm already with AT&T on a family plan, or else I would!

Apologies for posting again, but I have one more question: when I get the GPE One out of the box, will it have the same bootloader as Nexus devices? So I won't have to S-OFF or change the CID?

Some Q's

I was wondering if this was the HTC one international section of xda? And I also have the att version of the HTC one and was wondering if I could flash the international Roms/recoveries, with 0 problems. If so please tell me without being mean. I'm coming from an s4 and I'm just a little confused. Because I never had to flash roms from other carriers than att. Thanks for any help.

Yeah, you can use the twrp of the One (i advice the 2.6.3.3) and some roms are compatible, for example the ViperOne is compatible is the best rom (for me) on xda

I had twrp on my S4 2.6.3.0 I believe, I've used it for a while and I enjoy it. Thank you guys for the help. And I agree viper is a great Rom I ran it on my one x when I had it. Like I said thanks guys! I'm not new to rooting I'm just new to this whole att phone using foreign phone firmware! I just thought I'd ask before jumping right in! Thanks again

Will we ever see a compatible GPE ROM?

Will the Sprint HTC M8 ever see a compatible GPE ROM?

Just tried to install and it failed twice. A quick search of Sprint in that thread brings up the OP himself saying Sprint and Verizon aren't supported
