Description:
This mod enables you to switch radios without actually flashing the radio partition (which requires S-OFF).
How does it work?
The mod flashes the radio files to /system/mdm. On boot up, if the radio exists in this location, the radio partition will be unmounted and a symbolic link will be created from /firmware/mdm to /system/mdm.
Boot.img Specifications:
Unsecured
init.d support
Requirements:
Unlocked bootloader
Custom boot.img with init.d support (see Downloads below)
Busybox (see Downloads below)
New AT&T (1.19.502.1) or Telus (1.20.661.1) build (Other builds have not been qualified yet)
See my thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=40450319#post40450319
Install:
Download and flash custom boot.img with init.d support for your current build
Example:
Code:
fastboot flash boot c:\boot-1.20.661.1.img
Reboot to Recovery
Flash Busybox zip
Flash desired radio zip
Reboot
Profit

Awesome, thanks for this.
Got the 2.14 ATT radio flashed successfully. Going to try it out for a day and see how she runs. Any issues with flashing the old radio on top of this one if I wanted to roll back for comparison?

@Turge is any possibility that the T-Mobile HTC One radio could be adapted for the ATT HOX+ ?

You think I can use Toolkit V1.1 by hasoon2000 to boot to Recovery & restore it?

Happily to report that I've successfully installed Elegancia 3.2 without updating the firmware.
Thank you all.
Here's the new Stock OTA 2.04.605.2 710RD rooted ROM.
This does not have new radio or firmware.
Flash from recovery to install.
Devs can use also, just credit.
If wifi don't work, or won't boot, flash boot.img.

boot into bootloader and click on fastboot (it might even boot into fastboot not sure) If you see Fastboot USB you are good
Code:
fastboot flash radio radio.img
It shouldnt be affected by the older firmware. However because we do not have S-OFF it probably wont write the radio.img
Thanks Micro for the ROM
Damn it !!! I forgot to pull the system before I flashed your rooted ROM. Looks like I'm using your pull as a base cause I'm not doing it over LOL..
I see we have the flip clock now.. I know some people will be complaining about that..

that is weird... I am not knowledgeable about this type stuff but I wonder why we can fastboot flash recoveries and kernels, but not the radio..
so then is the only way to get the new radio to re-lock>> run the RUU>> unlock again>> flash custom recovery>> then preferred ROM?
My understanding is s-off prevents flashing radios, but we can still flash recoveries, kernels, and roms.
I just wanted to be clear about the ability to flash the radio.

Disclaimer: Flash this ROM at your own risk. I am not responsible for what you do on your device. I left this stock to provide a base for anybody that wants to use it. Mod this rom how you want. Just please remember to give credit where credit is due.
This is a pure stock rooted rom. It has items like busybox, init.d support and so forth. No apps were added or removed. Both Odexed and Deodexed versions below.

you could try installing the Xposed Framework installer, and then grab that mod (the longpress back button menu option) and enable it. I think it should work. correct me someone, if I'm wrong.
Personally, I just went ahead and flashed ROMs from the WWE HTC One forum here on XDA dev - [HTC One (M7)] since they have the mods I want, and they work fine with our AT&T model. LTE working as well. I do think there's probably a slight issue with mismatched FIRMWARE and base version, because my LTE reception is like 2-3 bars on ROMs like ARHD 5.1 or TrickDroid 4.0 (based on 129.xx.xxx.5) whereas it's full-bar on the stock AT&T ROM.
hope I helped.. hit me up with any questions. the Xposed framework stuff you can actually find a link to in the ARHD thread (careful, don't install ARHD 6 right now, there's some issues people are having. 5.1 is good). Paul Obrien from MoDaCo hosts all the Xposed stuff.

Yeah I was running ARHD but decided to just come back and stay stock and rooted. Didn't really have any issues or anything. Just wanted to get back to stock. But now find myself missing the Menu button to get rid of the black bar on a lot of apps I use. Wish devs would update their stuff lol I mean ICS been out about a year already.

1) adb reboot-bootloader
2) fastboot flash radio radio.img

Need to do adb shell while in recovery then:
dd if=/sdcard/radio_firmware.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p31
"radio_firmware.img" to be changed to whatever the name of the radio file is.
Also, I'm not sure if this command works in stock recovery. All posts I've seen say do this in custom recovery.
If it doesn't work, just flash custom recovery, flash radio, then flash back stock recovery.
Also why do you need OTA and Developer Edition conversion? If you're s-off and unlocked, it's easier to be up to date using either custom ROM or even stock ROM of international version and flashing radio/firmware as necessary.

You can flash a stock international ROM and keep it up to date manually.
Also there are custom stock ROMs, such as Android Revolution or CleanROM, that are stock Sense 5 with optimizations for performance and battery life.
Custom stock ROMs based on international version will allow you to have updates sooner than waiting for OTA to be approved by carrier.

thanks for the quick answer
Short answer: Yes
Long answer: Yes, but there are a few kinks. For instance the roms work perfectly fine without anything messing up. I for one have an m7att and was successfully able to flash roms between the att and ul variants flawlessly. However I then flashed philz advanced touch recovery on the ul forums and once I didn't like it tried to reinstall regular clockworkmod, however i was only able to install the ul version and now i can only flash ul roms. I can't reflash the att version yet because i can't use fastboot on my win8 for some reason so i need to wait til i can get my hands on a win7 again. Flash the roms but keep your recovery the same!
You need to edit the updater-script... Then you can flash anything.
