Development AT&T Vs Dev/Unlocked - AT&T HTC One (M7)

I have been trying to find the answer to this for hours and no luck so I decided to just ask and risked being flamed!
Are roms compatible from Dev/Unlocked to the AT&T Version and Visa/versa?
Debating which device to buy. Looks like a lot more roms in the HTC One section Vs The AT&T Section. The hardware looks identical so I was curious if they could be cross flashed.
Thanks in advance.

i've flashed roms from regular m7 forum onto att version that i unlocked without problem

Excellent, that is what I was thinking/hoping but I wanted to make sure and couldn't find that info anywhere.

The only thing you _won't_ be able to do is install a Developer Edition RUU onto the AT&T model because the RUU checks the device CID and won't install (AT&T = CWS_001 and Dev. Ed. = HTC_001).
But really, there are plenty of CWM/TWRP flashable 'stock' roms, custom roms, and nandroid backups based on the Developer Edition and they all install and function just fine on the AT&T model. There's no CID check when you go that route.

The recovery for rogers is the same as the recovery for at&t, which is the same recovery on the international phone.
the kernel will be the same too if you match the software release to the release the Rogers device came with out of the box.
In other words if your rogers phone came with 1.29.xx.13 out of the box, then you just need to find the stock rom based on that release, probably in the international forums, and grab the boot.img from the zip.
For those who still don't understand let me say it again.
The GSM HTC One (M7_UL) devices across the globe (except the dual sim models) ARE THE SAME PHONE.
They use the same stock recovery and hboot and even RADIO.
I really hope the Mods merge the forums soon like they said they were going to.
It's getting cray cray around here.

weird i finally got the ota working, it was hanging on updating screen, i held power down, reboot and it would continue. had t9 do this a few times....anywy to do a compatible cwm backup including recovery?

Is the ATT One, locked bootloader ?

Is the ATT One, locked down like they did to their version of the Galaxy S4 ?
Or can the ATT One, be rooted and flash ROM's and kernels with CWM or TWRM ? I used to have the One X, and that thing sucked for flashing, due to being S-On, and having to use the bootloader and boot.img to flash with Command prompt stuff, etc... really sucked. Would like to have no S-On crap and have to flash through the bootloader,
I just like to reboot to the Recovery only, flash the zip, and be done. Can that be done with the ATT One, or would I need he "Developer Edition" only to do that ?

Thanks, was thinking on possibly getting the ATT One, and hopefully we will get a port of the "Google Edition" ROM shortly after it's release next month ? And would like to flash it through recovery, not having to go through the command prompt and need a boot.img file, and all that crap.

Thanks, so basically, we could turn our ATT One, into a "Google Edition" One with a ported ROM this Summer, and it should be near identical to the real deal G.E. version then ?

Stuffing AOSP apps and removing Sense apps, while still keeping the Sense frameworks, is far from AOSP, the reason the GE is coming out is ppl want the option of pure AOSP on it without any trace of Sense.

Confused
I also am curious if the At&t HTC One bootloader is unlockable through htcdev. I have read conflicting reports about it. can anyone clear it up? I am hoping to unlock the bootloader on my At&t HTC One but I want to know if it's ok to do. I bought my phone two weeks ago and I don't want to brick it.

The S4 will have a bigger dev community simply due to the fact Samsung is a bigger/more popular manufacturer...but theres still plenty of devs for the One from what I've seen.

I found this "The interesting thing is that these instructions work fine only for the international version of HTC One, and if you have the AT&T variant, the official method won’t work, since AT&T didn’t allow that (carriers do that, don’t they?). That’s rather odd and annoying, because the official bootloader unlock worked on the AT&T variant as well until the device actually hit the shelves and AT&T forced HTC to go back to a more closed approach. Of course, there would be other, unofficial unlock methods coming out pretty soon, but until they do, AT&T users are out of luck." on Redmond Pie "How to Unlock HTC One" page. (Can't post link)
I interpreted this as saying that I am out of luck.
Was I wrong?

I have no idea why he wrote that, because it is most definitely wrong. I followed the official instruction to unlock bootloader from htcdev website for my AT&T One without a problem.

I didn't say it was exact but it gives you the idea
I hate ASOP myself would much rather have a sense rom ..that's why I bought the One

I know you didn't say it was exact, but Sense as you know is far different from AOSP, and the GE will have straight AOSP with no Sense, basically Vanilla (Nexus type) Android.

Would Installing An "International" RUU Make My Phone Better?

Hi, I'm new to this device, as a matter of fact I don't have it yet, its in the mail....I purchased an HTC ONE Google Edition At&t phone and am going to use it on Straight Talk. I had a HOX+ but couldn't get WiFi tether to work and tried multiple Roms and other advice. Anyway, I was encouraged to get the ONE because there is a lot more development on it. I was wondering if I first UNLOCK the device from its carrier and ROOT it and get S-OFF, could I install an "International" RUU and firmware to get rid of any preconfigured settings to At&t and not COMPLETELY RUIN my device and still have LTE ?

AT&T HTC ONE M8 twrp [ruu file][S-OFF only]

Just one more way to install Twrp or Philz touch recovery to our
HTC one M8 .
Now this is only for S-OFF,Supercid and can be simply made for any of the HTC ONE M8 variants .
Was made for those that are on the fly RUU flashers that can't wait for the use of a computer.
Just like other ruu files in the "0P6BIMG.zip" form
place it on the root of your external sdcard and boot to "hboot".
Once hboot finishes verification and asks you what you want to do
Volume-up and install will finish and you can reboot.
Tested on my at&t HTC one m8 fully converted to GPE,S-OFF, Supercid
I give thanks to @dottat

I know you said this works on your gpe converted att device, do you know if it works on stock att firmware, and dev edition converted att devices?
The reason I'm asking is I noticed that the main version doesn't match my current main version, also the hbootpreupdate does not match either.

This is really old, almost 2 years ago. I would not recommend installing such an old version TWRP.
For Lollipop, download TWRP 2.8.7 and flash using fastboot method: https://twrp.me/devices/htconem8gsm.html
But also recommended to update to Marshmallow firmware, in which case you want to use TWRP 3.0.2.

Could you please guide me through a return to 100% stock of my August - HTC M9 version
I am hoping an amateur like me could get my phone fixed too through the help of the group here. I recently bought a swappa phone didnt realize the ATT HTC M9 phone was an unlocked international Custom ROM, it worked the first day smooth with my ATT SIM. But from day two I couldnt receive any incoming call. I was told that by the seller to switch back to stock ROM ... Thus I started this exploration, completed an S-OFF using the sunshine $25 apk, Enabled developer version and USB debugging, but am not very clear with the next steps.
Especially 1. Which ROM version to download ? Should I know the original stock firmware version, if so how to ?
2. By SD card is it meant Micro SD inserted in the phone ? Can it be done by USB cord with out SD card ?
3. The OS in the system info says 2.6.502.18 ROM HTC so should I use the same RUU ?
Sorry if the questions sound so amateurish can't help it.
With s-off then you should be able to flash any att ruu. As long as you haven't messed with your modelid (don't remember what it's called). I would recommend running any att m9 ruu to clean up your device then do a full conversion to the dev edition. That will give you a clean ROM to mess with and coming from my m8 I expierenced less issues while on a dev ruu while flashing roms. Also if you're running a ruu through your computer then you don't need a SD card .

Without S-off you can only flash RUUs that update your software or are the same version and you cannot flash RUUs meant for other devices like the DEV edition RUU.

So, I'm almost there - I'm unlocked (using HTCDEV site), TWRP Recovery installed, Rooted, and (FINALLY!!) S-OFF!! (not sure why, but that last one made me really nervous). Also changed CID to CWS_001 ........ so now I'm ready to flash the Developer ROM - but there are a bunch of them and I'm not sure which one I should use. My main goal is to get to Android 6.0 - can I use a RUU file to go directly to the Marshmallow firmware or is this something I have to do in steps? Will I lose OTA? Thanks again!

I am now officially a "convert" - i figured it out. I started with 1.32.502.31 and have been updating all afternoon. I'm finally on the last update - 3.35.617.2 and I'll have Marshmallow. Goodbye AT&T - I was really tired of waiting for them to get their act together.
