1. S-off is not required to flash it. Check your cable and drivers.
2. As of now, if firewater is not working, sunshine is the method left.
Thanks i was thinking that i needed the s-off since i was and still not able to connect to cdma, it doesn't show on a any port on w7 xp or w8. It's really weird, because I was able to unlock and root it. I recently had the same issues with my Note 3 but I manually installed it and got connected, never had the issue before. I tried doing the same thing with the m8 in addition to installing malboro, etc and nothing on all xp, w7, w8. I am able to get a port when HTC sync is installed, but cdma is not able to read the phone and dfs doesn't connect. The port says toshiba.

Question, how does one get NV 465_1 & 466_1, i never seen those before. I already have the both passwords for profile 0 and 1.

I could use a little direction here if possible. I'm a bit confused on flashing the sprint htc one m7. I've read on other threads it cant be done but you've done it. Is there a guide I can use to get me through it? It's been a few years since I've done it and to say the very least I'm rusty.

flash HTC ONE m8 sprint to boost

Hello, I have HTC ONE m& which I flashed to boost. Now I got HTC one M8 sprint and I cant get 3G data to work. I did everything exactly as with m7 but no data... I can anybody tell me why this may be? I had a data for like a 5 minutes but then they were disconnected again and after tweeking more I don't have even that. I have all passwords and ESN I needed to work on my m7. Any help will be appreciated. ;)

Ok so i have my m8 flashed to boost. talk and text work fine but I have no data... Im using the incognito as a donor and I've checked my profile0 and profile1 info and they are all the same. I also triple checked that my ha and aaa passwords are correct and still nothing. If I go into ##debug# my an/aaa authentication says 64=64=64=64=. Ive tried to update profile and prl and still no joy. I used the evo flash guide. Is there something different I have to do on the m8 because its on a KK rom? its on stock rom but is rooted and s-off

So I finally figuered it out! The last step I was missing is to change the IMEI to match to that of the donor phone. I did this on my HTC One M7 and 4G works perfectly now! Now only to do the same for my One M8 and everything will be perfect.
How and what Program as I'm old school Flasher never tried 4g LTE I used to flash the Mac id from clear wire Devices and that's how I would get 4g but wimax is gone and slow compared to LTE either way my phone is done I'm just trying to get the LTE working my donor is White HTC boost programs I have are Paid CDMA WS,QPST and QXDM thanks and Please Advise

    Error 16

    Okay so I did what you said, but now I'm getting a wicked error 16 message. Normally I would just stay on with customer service and they would have me power down the phone then turn it back on in a few minutes and the error would go away. This time that hasn't happened at all. I loaded a boost prl into the phone manually but I still haven't had any luck. You have any suggestions?


    Hi People some of you are having problems with error 16 from sprint or boost when you flash or reset a phone, well i have a direct number that you can call, but make sure you have the exact name on the account plus the phone that you are using he direct phone number is 1-877-492-9605... Don't forget to thanks for this research that will help anybody...... no one had this information?

    Does the m8 need to have the s - off in order to flash it? Mine is already rooted and unlocked, but having issues with w7 reading the port and cdma etc reading it. Firewater didn't work, any way to get the s - off without using sunshine?

    1. S-off is not required to flash it. Check your cable and drivers.
    2. As of now, if firewater is not working, sunshine is the method left.
