Kinda Sorta New to Android - AT&T HTC One (M7)

Hey guys,
I guarantee this is in the wrong place and please forgive me if it is. I used tohave a droid phone back in the day and would constantly flash it to different ROM's. I switched to iPhone for a few years and now that I'm back to Android, I cannot for the life of me remember how to flash rom's. I've been looking around and nothing rings a bell. I have the HTC One for AT&T and I'd love to be able to flash this to a rom but keep blinkfeed. Is this possible? Is it possible to change apk icons without flashing?
I remember flashing roms being so simple, but I just cant remember.

First off yes the mods will probably delete this thread there is a QA section that this would go. Second searching QA or General threads would have told you everything you needed to know. Blinkfeed is part of sense you have to have the sense framework to run rosie (sense launcher).

Best ROM for Hero without sense?

Im looking for a new ROM for my Hero without sense.
It has to be fast, and everything has to work.
First of all. Wrong section. Moderators please move this thread.
Second, its called a Vanilla Rom, when it is just android
Third, its all a matter of testing and just finding one that fits you
Moderators Please move this thread!

Well wait for it to be moved o Q&A
There are few Vanilla Roms I can think of
Vanilla Eclair
EzHero
AndroBin
aHero
And CyanogenMod for Hero
That might not be all of them
/showthread.php?t=721551 (Sorry can't post links yet)
Check this post out, seems to detail many of the popular ROM's and their speediest features. (Broken down to Sense/Non Sense ROM's)
Superhero is also worth a look if you just want speed and compatibility, although it isn't pure vanilla aosp

Try helping yourself next time, this has been asked countless times before and usually gets a very similar answer (search), it is down to personal preference. Try them, try as many as you can. And it still worries my how many people fail to see that if you're going to ask a question the development section isn't the palce when there is a dedicated space for questions and answers...
villainrom 12 + launcher pro(set as default) + oc = power/stable/speed/daily.
is fully working... only got problem after what sh*t i done to it my call during BT to audio not working. no time to re-flash now due to daily usage...
is current the best rom right now i have tried(almost all rom in xda).
Go for VanillaEclair 4.0
Clean, fast, stable,... what else?
Link above in my signature.
And welcome in the vanilla on Hero world.
Moved as not Development.

[SOLVED] [Q] [NEWB] Pics of Desensed Rezound prease

Nevermind, I just bought the phone. Please lock this thread lol
===
Hey everyone,
I tried to ask a question in a thread but I don't have enough posts and I'm not going to spam posts so I made my own thread.
I'm about to buy a Rezound. I've been spoiled with Cyanogenmod on my OG Droid since Day 1. So, I'm definitely going to be using Clean-Tool or something similar to De-sense and remove bloat. If I read correctly, I just need to install my own launcher first, and then use that.
So the only thing that remains that looks like Sense is the lock screen, correct?
If yes, can I still have lock screen widgets and jump in to apps or not? That must rely on some Sense stuff, right?
Although, I did purchase ADW EX when it was on sale for .10 but the new dockbar confused me. As I am getting older, that change scared and confused me Really though, I just didn't want to take time to figure out until I have new phone.
So anyway, if Sense's lockscreen enhancements will no longer work, I guess I'll just use ADW EX to do lockscreen stuff if I want.
I just want confirmation of these questions I have. Googling desensed rezound on regular and image search didn't really pull anything up.

Switched to the EVO, need a point in the right direction

So, ive made a big switch. I went from a Captivate with 2.3, to my EVO 3D. Im currently running on 2.3.4 and Hboot 1.49.
Im looking to root the dev so i can remove some of the onboard rogers crap. Stuff in the background is running when i don't want it to. And some of the games and junk on here, i just want to get rid of.
Im reading several threads, but none of them are specific enough. Can someone point me to the proper rooting thread for this build? I dont plan on using a ROM, this OS is stable as it is.
As well, can someone recommend me an Antivirus? Ive heard of people starting to use these, maybe someone can suggest me one.
Thanks in advance,
-Dan

Apparently you haven't read the important threads, otherwise you would have posted this in the right forum :')
Antivirus is overrated AFAIK, it's pretty much only an issue if you plan on installing unknown APKs or using third party app stores. I've been hacked once when I installed an unknown APK on my tablet, which resulted in a password reset of my Google account because my credentials were compromised and some prick attempted to log in to my account from Argentinia
I've looked at the other forum regulations and this was the one that came the closest to the subject. Then again, i also haven't been on the forum for about 6-9 months.
If someone can direct this thread to the proper section that would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

this forum is for ROM development. Your thread is about a question you have. That means this thread should go into Q&A (I honestly feel sorry for doing this, the Q&A forum is a very dark place where you can easily lose your mind among the imbeciles)
Definitively off dev thread ;-)
Depending on your hboot version many subprocesses are related.
My advise is to precisely indentify tour default settings then you will easily find out your happiness to clean what you dont want.
Btw, in dev section there are severals cleaned stock roms.
Depending on what you are looking for and consequences (root needed, s off, ...), make tour choice and enjoy.
Personnaly my favorite for daily usage is the Mwakious 3d one, but official ics update is coming since this morning all around the world (do not know for Roget)
Jump and enjoy this really Nice and Effective toy.

Well, ill take a closer look around and see what may benefit me. As stated before, im on Hboot 1.49. Im used to rooting and customizing my Captivate, not exactly the same as the HTC, thats for sure.
moved to q&a as this is not development. if you did not develop anything then do not post in the development section

I like the anti-theft features of Lookout, but I prefer the other features (especially with regard to root features) of Avast. Right now though, I'm not running any.

From iPhone to Android

So I had my iPhone 4S (Jailbroken of course) for about a year and i got bored with it. Once my upgrade came I decided to give Android a try.
I need to know everrrrrryyyy thing about the Android. (not literally)
I think im rooted already, here are some screen shots to see what I am working with. (Got the phone 2 days ago)
I also am not sure if I am flashing the ROM's correctly, in my about it says i have Stock with Goodies ROM (downloaded here) but some of the features are missing, like landscape rosie and the power down options for recovery.
I also have no freaking clue what S-OFF and S-ON is so could someone explain that to me,
And
I also see alot of mods being implmented by txt editors codes n such, replacement of codes. Can I get a brief on that as well?
I really need gudiance, I did everything on my own and im not sure if I did any of it correctly. Ive been reading that MeanROM ICS is popular I had it but I switched to stock goodies.
My task list is as follows,
Install Stock ROM,
LazyPanda S-OFF,
ROOT,
Remove Tampered,
Install MeanROM ICS
How Do I acomplish this ^ in the correct order, from where im standing in my screenshots but note in the bootloader screenshot mine is UNLOCKED not locked
Here is a good introductory tutorial on the evo lte and android in general (thank om4):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1869377
It looks like your bootloader was unlocked at one point and then relocked. The good news is you have the right hboot version for s-off (1.12) so you should do that first. You'll need to do it with a ROM that's a 1.12 or 1.13 base though (not sure what base stock w/ goodies 2.16 is), so if that's not what you're currently running you'll need to unlock the bootloader first and flash one (like Fresh 5.1.1). S-off will give you full access to the phone's internal memory and allow you to flash anything, whereas only unlocking the bootloader and remaining s-on has some limitations. Read the first couple of posts in this thread to learn how:

Im upset to admit that ive been brainwashed by apple, and the Jail breaking community
At least you are honest about it. It is pretty sad to me, the love affair America has with Apple.

I agree. I went as far as starting a new line on my account and letting my roommate get a GS3 with it. He was such an IPhone lover to the max.
I rooted his Sammy (technically mine) and showed him how to flash ROMs, nandroid (backup up ROMs, for Op) and install themes, put apps in system, ect, and everything else you can do with an android. He loves that he made the switch and can't believe how much he was missing. He sends me new threads and gets so excited to show me his latest mods, ROMs, tweaks, ect.
Welcome to the world of android my friend. Love when I see someone who actually had an open mind and decided to try android. There's so much your gonna love and so much you can do with android.
You came to the right place with your questions and it looks like your questions have been answered already. You'll find we are a very close knit supportive community and just about anyone will help you with anything.
My biggest advice would be to read read read. That's what I did when I first started rooting phones years ago. (Cm7 on my cliq xt was my first modded phone ) and lastly before you post questions in development threads, do a quick search. Most questions are usually already answered and solutions are provided
Welcome to the community!! You can personally pm me with anything you need help with. Would be glad to help

I can't stand Apple, not only their stuff, but the Corporate bully that is Apple, only 500 billion in the bank for a rainy day, must be nice.
Android rules, but the best part of it is the support you find here. If you would like some color on your phone, I have 3 themes on evo 4g lte forum under the themes/apps section, I bet you can't do that with a rotton apple lol

[Q] Noob needs help with root/flash/ruu...

Hey xda,yes im a noob an new to android. i recently purchased a htc one from at&t an while i love the phone an all i want to try out the google edition 4.3 software instead of the sense 5 4.3 it has now. I update ota to 4.3 yesterday an sense 5 is cool an all but gpe caught my attention. So my question is how can i root/flash/ruu to try out gpe on my One an see how it works out then go back to sense 5 if i dont like it as gpe? Or in case i return it it'll be back to factory sense 5 with no issues from at&t. Thanks!
*i never rooted/flashed/ruu before, im new to all of this*

Fast answer is, yes, you are able to restore to stock. However, don't expect someone to type out the instructions in this thread. They're all well documented. Spend an hour or two of research learning. Get an understanding of fastboot and ADB, and then come back with relevant questions.
