Hi, I am very very new to HTC. This is my first HTC phone.
I just bought the HTC One M7 (T-Mobile Unlocked) Variant, I have one simple question. How do I install "international stock ROM" (UK or something like that, not GPE ROM) on my t-mobile phone. I hate all the bloatwares from t-mobile.

Please give me a guided path step by step (I will really appriciate it)
Phone is brand new, not rooted, got it yesterday.
Screenshot attached for more details.

I have found the following - http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one/help/stock-rom-t-mobile-m7-help-s-off-t2909334
but it is very outdated

Please help
Thanks so much :eek:

"T-Mobile" isn't a variant of the M7, its a carrier brand. T-Mobile phones are the M7_UL variant which is the most common one. You can simply unlock the bootloader flash a stockish/ debranded rom for the M7_UL or if you want you can do the full conversion to the x.xx.401.x version using a RUU (requires S-OFF). Is your phone sim-locked to t-mobile? If yes you'll also need to sim-unlock it, flashing a rom or doing the conversion will not remove the sim-lock.

How do I do a full conversion
Downloading - PN07IMG_M7_UL_L50_SENSE60_MR_HTC_Europe_7.19.401.22_Radio_4T.35.3218.16_10.33Q.1718.01L_release_430964_signed.zip
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24369303960689843

Current version soft ver is 7.18.531.35
Do I need s-off
Do I need to unlock the booloader

Note: Phone is unlocked

Thanks

First I would recommend you should use the7.19.401.51 version which is the latest one. In order to flash one of these RUU you will first need to achieve S-OFF, Change your CID number, change your MID number and finally flash the RUU.

  1. Achieve S-OFF with Sunshine, will cost you USD 25$ to use the app, no there isn't any free method.
  2. Change your CID to HTC__001 (do the commands when booted in bootloader/fastboot mode)
    Code:
    fastboot oem writecid HTC__001
    fastbooot reboot-bootloader
  3. Change your MID to PN0710000: (do the commands when booted in a custom recovery or when booted in a rooted rom)
    Code:
    adb shell
    su
    echo -ne '\x50\x00\x4e\x00\x30\x00\x37\x00\x31\x00\x30\x00\x30\x00\x30\x00\x30' | dd of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p6 bs=1 seek=16384
    exit
  4. Then flash the 7.19.401.51 RUU with the instruction posted in the RUU colelction thread at post #1.
