Hello All vzw users
i have a verizon HTC ONE M8
IS IT POSSIBLE TO RUN THE REGULAR ROM WHICH CAM ON THE HTC ONE M8 (that you buy from htc not any carrier ) ON VERIZON HTC ONE M8
I know everything bout rooting, unlocking , s-off , super CID and most steps
just need a clear answer and if if any on succeeded on it yet or no and i mean Stock original HTC ONE M8 , no customs or any other
thx
I'm imagining the international version is what you're wanting?
I'm not sure why you would want to.. therefore I doubt anyone has ported it to the VZW M8. So unless you do that yourself, I'm guessing the answer is no.
If you want a stock rom without the VZW bloat, CleanRom would make the most sense (hehe). This is Cleanrom. Its pretty much stock Sense 6. As stated in the OP of the CleanRom thread,

Although if the reason you want this is to use the phone on other carriers, you need to unlock it (not root/bootloader unlock) which is still illegal, although the bill is well on it's way (should be legal to do again soon).

I don't like all Verizon apps and setting
And I don't like to use custom roms
Plus Verizon comes SIM unlocked for worldwide use so I don't have a problem with that

Most of the Verizon apps removed. Also other crap you don't want and use.
You need to root and s-off to run ANYTHING other than the stock firmware the phone came with.
Thats great berndblb

Yes he is all for it. Now they need to put an end to bootloader locking yeah VERIZON you heard me STOP locking our bootloaders, at&t, sprint & tmobile all allow htc dev to unlock their bootloaders, VERIZON stop being such pricks and allow htc dev bootloader unlocking. Then next step pass legislation requiring all new cellular phones to be capable of working all bands for any carrier so any phone can be used on any USA network and have full data band usage.

I'd still recommend calling T-Mobile or even going into one of their stores nearby. They will help you troubleshoot and may just confirm that you need a new sim card. I had this issue and needed a new sim card when converting from my Nexus One to my MyTouch 4G for some reason so it is a possibility.

Well I went to the store put in the sim card and nothing happened, I wonder if maybe the previous owner messed the phone up trying to unlock it and if he did I don't know if it can be fixed.
Bummer, $350.00 right on jeopardy.
I turn it off and will give it 10mins hopefully it works now.
Fingers cross and drum droll going on!
Id call that dude back up and get my money back if a Tmobile store couldnt connect it either. Didnt you see it work in person before handing the guy money?
Matt
It's not working and says no data, I didn't try it because there was no sim card available then.
So I ask is there a possibility that by unlocking the phone it maybe damaged?
you didn't test the phone before paying the guy? you might of purchased a stolen phone try doing the super cid and installing a usa based rom like beast rom or stock tmo rom the other rom might have the apn messed up....install the latest tmo usa radio

I am doing a wipe and then reinstalling the ROM but version 2.4
I don't think it was stolen, the seller is a UCF student and was a Chinese guy (lol)
If the Full Wipe and ROM don't fix it I will try your solution, I appreciate everyone help.

Start fresh and install the latest T mobile US ruu, then install the 2.3.4 OTA update, that should get you going. Sounds like there's a setting, radio, and or RIL that is incorrect. I am assuming you checked the apn settings.

Right now I am at the Stryper concert at HOB, when I get home I will try the RUU.
Don't think it's a bad APN because I did a full wipe in recovery and reinstalled the coredroid latest ROM and still can't get service.
Also the tech support at T-Mo check if the phone was blacklisted and no it wasn't so that's good.
It should work on their network.
Which radio are you using? Menu>settings>about phone also is it a T-Mobile branded phone or EU version ?

Definitely try flashing the RUU for T Mous, I have read a number of posts in the development section about it. From what I've read some key software components may not be flashing properly or something to that affect so some recommend flashing the Official RUU and then flashing the custom ROM when a problem such as yours presents itself.
Enjoy the concert.
Report back how it goes.

I am running the latest TMOUS RUU (RUU_Pyramid_TMOUS_1.29.531.2_Radio_10.42.9007.00P_10.11.9007.15_M_release_193714_signed)
And it recognizes the phone and it says it is on version 1.45.531.1 then I press the Update buttom to update the current ROM and then the RUU says it will update the phone to 1.29.531.2 and I click nextthe the RUU says it's checking then waiting for boot loader then the phone goes to a screes that is black and says in the center htc and stays there with no progress and the RUU then gives me an error # 171 USB Connection ERROR.
Am I missing something here? Maybe it's the USB driver for the Sensation that is wrong?
Thanks for all the support
Does anyone know a method of downgrading the HTC One X to 1.85? I looked around hoping for an answer but nothing. Then I thought to myself (after having to download an ruu for my old vivid countless times) that I could just download the 1.85 RUU for the One X and run that. Unfortunatly that had failed. I'm wanting to root my One X but with it being 2.20, root capabilities have been eliminated. So, does anyone have a way of downgrading the phone? Results or not, Thanks.

Patience Luke. If you got to 2.20 before rooting you are effed for the moment, but sooner or later somebody will break it. Of you were already rooted and unlocked with a superCID you should be able to re rkotu

I know this sounds dumb (it did to me too) but you can exchange your phone for a new one so you would then have 1.85. Thats what i did and now i'm happily running sense 4.1.

i just got out of an IRC chat with mike1986 (the creator of the rom you would be running if you have a tegra phone) and he said that nobody has this one xL phone. it's just us guys. the rest of the world got the quad core tegra that is unlocked to begin with. we would have to be lucky that of the few one xL users, one of them has the competency to hack the new OTA.. and i asked beaups if he could do it, and he hasn't found a way yet (he hacked the 1.85)
Hmm...that does sound kind of depressing. I'm kind of wondering if there is still anything we can do if we have unlocked bootloaders but no root. I really want to know more about how exploits are found and how the other hacks were discovered.
If you're bootloader is unlocked then you're ok. You can always push root via recovery.

I'm now flashing the Stock Rooted Odexed version of 2.20 from scottsroms.com. I wonder if I'm the only one who updated that previously had root and an unlocked bootloader and thinks their stuck. Again, thanks Gunny. I didn't know I could still do this!
Did you have to install the boot.img separately?
No. I started with a relocked bootloader. I unlocked the bootloader again with my unlock token, flashed the twrp img using fastboot and then just flashed the odexed stock rooted updated rom. Worked like a charm.
Ok thanks.
They put the system update on me before I left the store and I didn't notice until it was too late. I tried to exchange and they wouldn't do it, not even for a re-stocking fee. Hopefully I can find a store that will be more cooperative.

Not entirely true. You need to be rooted on AT&T, since BL unlock is not officially offered for us and we need to change the SuperCID.
Not sure if this is the case with SingTel. Most carriers are allowed to unlock their BL officially. If HTC offers the bootloader unlock for that carrier CID, you do not need root. And root is easily achieved after BL unlock (just install a custom recovery and flash SU).

Sorry. Unfamiliar with other carriers. Plus, I never saw the One X in the list on the dev site at all. Has it changed? Or, are you saying that some carriers don't lock the bootloader at all? I wonder why AT&T even cares about locking it down.
If your phone is NOT on AT&T, you can unlock the bootloader with HTCDev.com
That means you do NOT i repeat NOT need root.
Just choose "All other supported phones" in the list of phones.

Are you sure? It is listed as a HTC One XL with LTE coverage and their firmware works on everyones S4 phones.
Where is your info coming from that the phone isnt a S4??
To add facts:
Singtel previously offers both: HTC one X and HTC one XL (LTE).
Now, I think Singtel only offers One XL.
Singtel 4G Network Just about 3 months old.
BTW, I successfully Unlock Bootloader and gain root upon Rom Flashed.
I encountered no trouble at all. And did the following:
. follow HTCdev literally
. flash TWRP recovery image using fast boot flash command
. flash custom rom zip file thru TWRP

Someone will correct me if I'm wrong but I believe we're still out of luck on that. Unless you updated to 2.20 from 1.85 with superCID. Thats the only work around to my knowledge.
Doesnt HTC have to let us root within 90-120 days from release?
---------- Post added at 01:29 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:27 PM ----------
Ahulab- yes you are correct there or if you were previously unlocked(supercid hand in hand obviously) you could unlock using your original token instead of having to regenerate another

Sent from my HTC One XL
According to this it should work on GSM (voice, SMS, EDGE data) as well as HSPA (3G) data. Based on the link, Israel uses 850 and 1900 MHz for 3G, both bands are compatible with the AT&T One X.
But as area51avenger suggests, verify with your carrier that these are in fact the 3G bands which they use.
As long as the band compatibility is correct, and the phone is SIM unlocked, it will work.
