Sprint HTC One M7 on Straight Talk?

I know little about the deeper workings of phones beyond my ability to read, understand and follow guides and tutorials and I've followed this one I believe successfuly because I went from no service to 3G with full bars. The reason I'm doing this is to try to use the Straight Talk BYOP SIM I've purchased but although I now have 3G and full bars when I attempt to activate my phone it says my IMEI is incompatible and my phones phone number remains the same Sprint number. Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.

so the on in Q&A is getting full of nothing so time to start one with the guide

I don't take any credit just posting,,,All credit goes to hotaru2k3 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/member.php?u=4572661) and Rimidal (http://forum.xda-developers.com/member.php?u=1468774) for writing step by step and video

first off you need to be on stock sprint rom or base for this to work. also it will work on bad esn phones

1. You should be rooted
2. Download https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jackpal.androidterm
3. Run Terminal Emulator
4. Type "su" (excluding quotation marks) and grant it superuser permission
5. Type "am start com.redbend.vdmc/com.htc.omadm.test.TestMainActivity" (excluding quotation marks)
6. You will get menu on your HTC
7. In that menu, select "API", then scroll down 'till almost end and select "simlock"
8. Reboot the phone and hopefully it would accept GSM SIM
9. Enter *#*#4636#*#* in your dialer
10.In the phone information section(the first one) set preferred network type to something that is GSM specific: "WCDMA Preferred", for example. The phone will switch to GSM mode
