Is it possible to flash AT&T, Developer Edition, and International ROM's to the T-Mobile HTC One with full compatibility? As in, if you can, will you still have the benefit of AWS despite being on an AT&T-based ROM?

Yes. If you flash a ROM that is 4.2.2 you lose Wi-Fi calling though.
I had AT&T Unlock this handset since I have T-Mobile.
I don't believe T-Mobile's LTE will work on this device regardless of what I end up doing, so I'll be willing to live without that.
So will I be able to flash any of the international roms knowing that I won't have LTE Capabilities?
Or am I still forced to flash roms for the AT&T hardware?
AT&T version uses diffrent radio H/W and kernel, so you can't use international roms..

Oh...
Well thanks.
It's a little difficult looking for decent roms for my version, but I'll manage.
Hi all. Soon (as soon as I end my mega carrier contract) I will be purchasing an unlocked HTC One M8 direct from HTC. I will use a nano simm from the new Cricket Wireless.
I believe this unlocked version is same as ATT&T sku. Buying unlocked, I can freely change carriers, and avoid a lot of bloat ware.
My question is, Is this the correct forum for that phone / carrier combination? I ask because I am sure I will be rooting, experimenting, etc.
Thank you all in advance!
It is and you'll find more in the international forums here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-m8
Roms on that forum will state whether they're safe to use on the AT&T version.
I have a AT&T branded M8 that I use on Tmobile because it is sim unlocked. My question is, do I flash custom roms from the Tmobile xda board or do I stick with AT&T roms only? I've never use a nonbranded phone! Thank you.
Its a tricky question, actually. In general any ROM meant for the GSM M8 should be "safe" to flash, in that they won't damage your phone and will work for the most part (but stay away from the CDMA ROMs for Verizon and Sprint). But some ROMs might work better on your specific (T-Mobile) network. Also, a different radio may or may not affect reception. The most you can really do is to read up or ask other T-Mobile users (or even T-Mobile customers using the AT&T version M8 like you) what has resulted from trial and error; or experiment yourself.
Hi. I've been looking at this and the SM-A32 5G models to replace a dead Moto X4. I see a few reasons to be interested in the international unlocked versions of either, particularly for future root and custom ROM options, plus things like FM Radio. But band-wise, it looks like I might be hobbling myself not getting US T-Mobile or unlocked versions (SM-A526U, eg). Does anyone have experience using an international unlocked version on T-Mobile? Thanks
I have the international one and I'm using it on t-mobile, its been working flawless
