Just curious if anybody has converted their AT&T Stock HTC One to an International One. Unfortunately I cannot root my phone since I use it for work and due to security settings mobileiron will block my emails if it detects root.
So my end goal is to convert my AT&T HTC one to an International One so I can get the latest updates via OTA without having to wait for AT&T.
I have posted a guide which is a WIP at the moment here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=43397755

Can any provide step by step guide please...
There is lot of confusion...
Well lets say i s-offed my At&t htc one.. Then i can convert cid and mid to international htc one, but how to do that?
Ok suppose somehow i convert it to international cid and mid, but again the latest RUU is only 4.1.2 available... But i can recieve 4.2.2 OTA that is rolling for international htc one right? But again everyone is saying that s-off is not available for 4.2.2 ... So now what?

No one said s-off wasn't available for 4.2

Some one said on page number 159 in revone developer early access thread..
Anyways bro.. Can you please correct me if i am wrong...
First i need to s-off , then i need to convert to some Cid and Mid of sim unlocked htc one( as 4.2.2 is officially available for sim unlocked htc one) then i need to run RUU 1.29 of sim unlocked htc one and then relock the bootloader , then get the OTA of 4.2.2 ...
Can you please tell me Cid and Mid of sim unlocked HTC one?

All I know is you have to change the cid not the mid and after that I don't know because I have no desire to do that. The cid for an unlocked one is HTC__001
Sent from my HTC One using Tapatalk 4 Beta
So I have tried this but currently stuck....
I got S-OFF and I was able to change the CID to HTC_Y13 (which currently has 4.2.2 pushing).
So I tried to install the RUU_M7_UL_JB_50_HTC_Europe_1.28.401.7_Radio_4A.13.3231.27_10.31.1131.05_release_310878_signed however it said that it is not compatible.
After that, I went down the path and changed the CID to 11111111 and I was able to flash that RUU
Hooked up to WIFI and there was the 1.29.401.12 update pending. However this is where I am stuck....it will download the update however when it goes to apply it it will tell me that my system is modified and that it can't install it.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

After spending 6 hours on this today I was able to finally convert my AT&T Phone to an International HTC__001 and was able to upgrade to 4.2.2 using HTC__Y13 CID. I will write something up when I have some time, but this is a WIP.

The only issue that I have noticed so far is that I am unable to get LTE. Curious if I can flash an AT&T radio from the 4.1.2 release or maybe just wait for the official AT&T update and then flash that radio. I am still getting about 14Mbps/5Mbps so speed is not currently an issue but would like to have LTE.

I have an GSM unlocked HTC One with bootloader unlocked. I didnt use lost the function of calc or sound recorder when unlocking that i have read. My question is will i still be able to receive OTA updates? and is there a very simple way to go back to stock or get the google play edition?
If you do anything to modify your phone you will not be able to accept OTA updates but you can always flash ruu's as long as you re lock the bootloader before you try to flash it. (which is also how you got to stock.) And currently the only way to run the play edition software is by flashing a custom Rom

I have only unlocked the sim and unlocked the bootloader via HTCDEV.com no rooting
Yes that's correct, SIM unlocking shouldn't affect anything, just the bootloader

You said you were on the stock Rom right? You probably can get away with just locking the bootloader. As for the ruu designgears has a thread in general
Sent from my HTC One using Tapatalk 4 Beta
I'm on 4.1.2 currently - Stock - But haven't received the OTA update yet. (My carrier hasn't pushed it yet, sounds like its still a month away)
Is it worth unlocking the bootloader, putting a custom recovery on and flashing a 4.2.2 rom? (Android Revolution as I want the stock experience) Just for the updates 4.2.2 brings?
I've used 4.2.2 on other phones I have (Xperia ZL Stock and Nexus 4 running PA 3.5) so I'm aware of what the stock upgrades are, but what does 4.2.2 bring to the HTC One over 4.1.2? Any improvements?
I want to try Android Revolution but have been hesitant on doing so - I have a Rogers Canada version of the HTC One LTE (Same as AT&T). Am I able to flash International roms like Android Revolution on my phone and maintain LTE?
I am S-ON, but I understand Most roms still use the Stock Kernel correct? So how would I go from 4.1.2 Stock rom to 4.2.2 Android Revolution as far as flashing? Do I need flash the boot.img first? (Doing it with S-ON is what I'm implying, yes I know there are S-OFF methods currently)
Update: I'm now S-OFF, Rooted, Unlocked Bootloader and on Stock 4.1.2 Rogers ROM.
NEW QUESTION
See Post #8
4.2 bring some improvements like native eqs and lockscreen widgets all you need to remember is 4.2 changes the file structure so it is best to backup and wipe before going to it all you need to do is follow the op for arhd and you will be alright

I unlocked bootloader, Flashed CWM Touch and S-OFF'd using the Revone method.
I didn't realize S-Off was so easy.
Rooted as well.
I work very early (5am) so will try flashing rom tomorrow.
Is there anyway of upgrading the firmware from Rogers to the newest UL? Any help here would be appreciated.

They've been getting better and better over the years, in pretty much every way.

I don't see why you wouldn't be able to flash just the radio if you have s-off.

Although I believe that it is "safer" to flash the entire firmware in RUU mode though.

This Was My Question Exactly... We Don't Really Need All the Firmware and Software Enhancements Since Most Of Us Run ARHD Or Some Other AOSP Rom. I See the Unlocked HTC One Development Section Has a Radio Thread with Instructions and Etc But Not Our Beloved T-Mobile Child lol
I Did S-Off and Did the Bootloader Unlock Via HTC but Never Changed My CID to Use International RUU'S or Make Mine a Google Edition As On T-Mobile Those Modifications Don't Play Nice With Some Of Our High Speed Bands.
If Anyone Knows How to Extract and Apply the Radio Update Please Let Us Minions Know... Thanks In Advance
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app
Thank you for your response. I'm curious why it would be safer to flash the entire ruu though. I'm already on 2.24.401.1 and would prefer not flash the entire ruu when all I want is the radio.

Tmobile be trolling us. Usually there's at least a handful of peoe that post they got it or post in the q&a asking if they are getting the 4.2.2 update or whatever. I think they announced it and won't be releasing it till midnight as to not bog the servers.....yeah ....that's sounds plasuable. ..

I've been running 4.2.2 (Insertcoin) with the latest international firmware (s-off/supercid) but with t-mobile's radio without problems. Don't see why using just the latest radio would cause any problems.

confirmed. you can still unlock and flash custom recovery like you always have, but the new hboot makes it impossible to s-off at this point (unless you pay for a java card or for a shop who has one to perform the s-off). There have not been any reports (to my knowledge) that ATT or HTC has blocked unlocking via htcdev.com

Which is why I said unlock bootloader first. Honestly, it's as simple as I listed it. And if you don't plan on flashing ruu's for other models, s-off isn't that big a thing. I have it, it's nice to have, but if all you want is to root, flash roms, etc, just unlock and flash custom recovery.

What happens if you run the exe file that is the GPE RUU from the HTC site (Brightstar) after you have OTA'd to 4.3 ATT version? This is my only phone so I didn't try for fear of bricking it, but it seems like it opens the rom upgrade utility program and would flash a different ROM, or does it check and then fail the install?

I guess it's a catch 22, can't s-off after 4.3 OTA, so can't change CID, or obtain the SuperCID status, is that what I am understanding at this point?

unlocking the bootloader will start a whole new set of problems
the unlock process wipes your phone and deletes files need for the OTA to proceed without error.
did you try just flashing the OTA with stock recovery and see if it worked ?

HTC doesn't offer the update, AT&T push's it to your phone.
But if your out of the AT&T coverage area you never get the updates
