Dunno if you still need an answer, but no Sense roms don't need Gapps. The only roms that need them are AOKP and CM based roms.

Hey all,
Been running ROMs on my Hero for a while now but I'd like to give the stock 2.1 a try and possibly stick with it until CM6 is stable. I know I can install the RUU but I don't really want to lose my recovery partition, I had to use the gold card method which was a pain in the ass.
I don't need root, I'd actually prefer to get a non-rooted completely default factory ROM if possible. How would I go about doing that or do I need to install the RUU and re-root it later if I want to? I've seen some "stock" ROMs floating around on the dev forum but all have been rooted and most seem to be running custom kernels too.
Any info or a link would be appreciated if I can keep my recovery part. Cheers
Villain Team has posted the GSM roms. There's pure stock and rooted stock.

Ahh brilliant, thanks for that!
all sorts of members have been posting that they have hboot 1.50 with dev unlocked and are easily flashing ics sense 3.6 roms without installing the virgin mobile firmware.. i havent had such luck... and i cant figure out why. i have tried both the fastboot bypass method and also buying the EXT4 recovery and installing through that as well....nothing works....rom boots up and one the setup screen comes on ...it freezes and boot loops .... can some one that has flashed the new sense roms with hboot 1.50 please help me ...and tell me what ive missed or done wrong...
Same problem here, been told I need to downgrade hboot to 1.4 and s-off...too much of a noob for that! Lol

I had the same problem as you guys. Try flashing the rom and chad's ics leak kernel in 4ext recovery and see if that does it. This worked for me.
thanx

+1 worked for me to. I had to fastboot into recovery first then flash the rom and then the kernel.

Is there something similar for GSM?
Hello All,
I have an EVO 3D with HBoot 1.58. I rooted via HTCDEV and flashed a new rom. The ROM booted but things didn't work, so I downloaded some other ROMS and found that they are locking up after the intro screen.
I installed GOOManager and upgraded to TWRP 2.3.3.0 so that I can try to improve my flashing but I had the same result.
I have tried the following ROMS all with the same results:
Viper3D_17Oct12_0707_r192_s
Unofficial AOKP JB v3.5
MIUI_3.1.18_SHOOTER_JB_DH
When I use Cool-ICS-v10-EvoC it works and passes the boot screen, but WiFi doesn't work as well as some other things.
When I flash I follow these steps:
Wipe Cache
Wipe Dalvik Cache
Factory Reset
Then I install the ROM and the gapps.
I get the Intro Video and it doesnt move beyond that.
Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?
Is there a stable ROM anyone can suggest?
Any stable Jelly Bean ROM's ?
Also, does anyone have a stock ROM image for RUU_Shooter_ICS_35_S_Sprint_WWE_2.89.651.2_Radio_1.09.00.0706__NV_NV_SPCS_1.43_release_271101_signed ?
Thanks!
some help

Hello, I can't say for sure, but only a few ROM's worked with HBoot 1.57. I'd suggest an eng hboot also you need s-off for a lot of roms to function correctly. I use NegaLite and LightsOut. LightsOut is very stable for me. The cm10.1 Jellybean is a good cross of stable and featureful, but evervolv is very stable and king kang is the most featured. As far as RUU's i'm sorry I don't know.

You can't flash JB roms without downgrading your hboot, for the love of god people read more.
Get s-off and downgrade your hboot. The info is everywhere, In fact, The OP of the roms you downloaded say , YOU CANNOT FLASH THIS IF YOUR S-ON or something to that degree.
Quit screwing up your phone and read.
And why don't you just google this " RUU_Shooter_ICS_35_S_Sprint_WWE_2.89.651.2_Radio_1 .09.00.0706__NV_NV_SPCS_1.43_release_271101_signed"
And add the word "download".
and the jellybean roms are stable, if you fir the requirements.

For the links I had utilized I didn't see anyting about the HBoot, after my post in reading another site's reviews of ROM's they mentioned on one of the rom's I used that it didn't work with 1.58.
Will try the S-off for a couple and see if that helps.
Thanks!
I have an M7 HTC One Sprint that keeps bugging me to update it. I'm not sure how to safely do this without bricking it. It is encrypted and I cannot make backups using TWRP at present (I used to before it was encrypted).
Please can you suggest a good ROM or source for updating my phone/radio or whatever?
My current situation...
I have s-off and root
ROM is Stock w Goodies One 2.10
Android 4.3
Sense 5.0
Kernel 3.4.10-g18569d8
Baseband 1.00.20.0913_3
Build
3.04.651.2.CL251863
TWRP 2.6.3
It might work
Well if the update is official then it shouldn't have a problem.

Oh well sorry. I'm new at this but I want to try my best at helping others. Sorry
Okay so I've had the issue with sms on non sense 5 based roms before . I took the its to give it a shot and see if the new radio/firmware base would help. I'm still s-off, unlocked, supercid and have twrp. If I try and install any custom Rom it'll start then crash and say failed to write metadata. Is that due to it being the 4.4.2 firmware? And should I go back to 4.2.2 and try the New radio to see if sms works? Just curious cause I'd like to keep the 4.4.2 base if possible just wondering if anyone has had roms work

That error is due to using an old recovery that is not compatible with kitkat based rom installer scripts.
Update your recovery...
Okay I'm using the newest twrp beta right now.
So never mind. I must have not payed any attention when I reflashed recovery I put 2.6 not 2.7. Thank you though

So does SMS work now on a nonsense ROM?
Haha of course not. Lol I wish we had a way to get it to work
Does anyone have an idea. I'd love to run viper 3.5 it ran amazing and save with the nusense roms. But no sms I can't do

No. If you currently have that issue (like I do) updating to 4.09 does not fix it. At least for the Sense 6 rom I tested after updating. I haven't tested any of the custom 4.4.2 Sense 5.5 roms yet.
Yeah same here. I'm gonna try 5.5 ones today and report back
