[Q] Easy way to unlock bands - Verizon HTC One (M8)

I have moved to the UK and I have the verizon HTC M8, as you can imagine I don't the best cell coverage or speed.
I found the instructions to unlock all bands, however I can't get it to work and I don't want to play around too much and screw things up. Is there an easy way to get the bands unlocked? Or maybe a custom ROM based on a UK variant?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Why is this posted in an LG G4 forum?

I think the mods moved it. It was definitely posted originally in the LG G4 forum.

[Q] ROM install problem

I think I have a big problem, because I have no ROM installed on my htc one x and also no ROM on the memory. So now I don't know how to install a rom to get it working again. And can't get adb working without a rom installed.
Hope someone can help me?
How did you remove the ROM from your device in the first place?
You're going to have to be a bit more clear. There is not much flashing you can do on the XL as of now, so you may be out of luck if you tried to flash the international One X rom...
~dan
Huh? Unfortunately none of that makes sense, bro. I can appreciate if English isn't your first language but try guiding us through the steps you had taken to get there. That way we'll be able to provide assistance in reversing these adverse changes.
We've all screwed up our phones at one point I'm sure. Just got mine working after a couple days of extreme fear and frustration, so I'm more than happy to help fix yours if it's possible. I'll keep an eye out for your response so please post soon.
wrong forum i think, hes looking for the international one x forum!
Add one more to the poor naming of phones and threads...
it is called the att htc one x though!

That would be the bad phone naming part. The second part would be xda not decerning it and naming one thread s4 or America edition.
yeah they should add ATT HTC One X S4
then the other HTC One X Tegra 3 International lol
Where can I find the European forum?
This can be closed. I fixed it by flashing back my previous boot.img.

Metro as in MetroPCS? If so, MetroPCS only works with CDMA phones. The Glacier/MyTouch 4G is a GSM phone.
so basically there is nothing to be done lol....well anyways, i have the MAXX for VZW and originally it was CDMA but as of last month the ICS ota came through and now its GSM capable...so can i swap my sim to the mytouch just for ****s....if so, how do i unlock it and root ?

Mod Edit: Do not flame..
If you are on Gingerbread, you'll need to downgrade to FroYo to root. Go here.
Once on Froyo, use this to attain S-Off.
Then flash a custom recovery like Clockworkmod or 4EXT (my favorite) and flash away.
If you ask what the best ROM is I'll find you and stab you to death It will be out of kindness, I assure you.
The above statement is probably against the rules and may get me an infraction. :fingers-crossed:
Cheers!
Thread Closed.. Please search and post questions in the Q&A section... Not the general section.
Also guys you know the rules do not be rude to new members... You know the rules. Last warning..

if is Sprint variant which is the same as Boost variant the Bootloader is Lock and you won't be able to install custom recovery (TWRP) and just get root, but without TWRP you won't be able to flash any roms.
i recommend you to keep track on this Thread LG G STYLO (LS770) Thread

I'm surprised that no one has called you out or closed this yet! You're in the Android Wear WATCH section. You need to find the section for your PHONE and search there. If you still can't find your answer, then post there.

there is no real section for our device on XDA there is this http://forum.xda-developers.com/t/lg-g-stylo but it's not exactly the same as the one for the Galaxy S3 for example the Stylo forum is a collection of threads in different sections that have mentioned the phone itself hence why this thread is on that forum....

He would still have better luck getting an answer in the general Android development PHONE section: http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development than in this WATCH section.
well if a moderator would like to move this thread to the appropriate section that would be appreciated

[Completed] Convert HTC M7 Sprint (m7wls) to AT&T

Hi,
I have an HTC One M7 Sprint (m7wls) or (m7spr) and after my contract runs out, I was planning on selling my phone to them (becuase I own it), but they have AT&T. I know that AT&T has a different partition layout, and I read something about having to change the MID, but couldnt I just download and flash the AT&T RUU? Or do I have to do anything else?
I read an article and found out most of everything, I just want to make sure I'm doing this right.
Sorry I'm a noob,
Wesley

[Completed] Unroot htc m8

Ok, I am completely new at this and I am sorry if this is already a thread, if so please point me in the right direction.... I bought a HTC one m8 (att) off of craigslist. He told me that it was carrier unlocked, which I like, but not rooted and running skydragon. I'm not savvy enough to have a rooted phone and would like it to be stock, other than the carrier unlocked part. I've googled and searched all of these forums and cannot seem to understand anything anyone is talking about other than finding out that this phone is S-on, which i guess is a problem for what I want to do. Any help would fricken awesome. Thank you.
