Hi. Did somebody try to fully convert (CID, MID, bootloader, recovery ,radio, hboot, i mean ROM and firmware our Tmo version to the GE version? Does Tmo LTE works on GE version?
i just ordered my t mobile htc one, coming from a galaxy nexus (just love the build quality of the one and screen more than nexus 4) i know how to root and install roms but i heard that it's possible to converted the t mo htc one to the goole play edition so we can get the OTA updates. is that true?
I think it is only possible with the international GSM version, as it is identical with the HTC One GE. Correct me if I'm wrong.
I did it and came back to sense. It was nice but with gpe you lose WiFi calling, nice tv remote, and in 4.3 you loose beats audio.

It's possible to flash to the GE using RUU. You can find the thread under android development. And you still have beats audio in 4.3.

4.3 has working ir and beats audio

4.3 Beats audio is far better then 4.2.2 Beats audio on GE roms. I converted fine, but keep in mind that at this time its impossible to do it with the new update unless you prior had S-Off.

I recently did the conversion listed in the regular HTC One forum and I'm picking up LTE just fine. Still haven't figured out how to get the IR to work in 4.3 though. Everything else is great, no wifi-calling however.
Yes, with GE Rom and even GE radio, we can get LTE signal. So guys, we can do conversion, and enjoy truly Google Edition experience!
I don't even know if I get wifi calling on TMO on Sense... how can i tell?

Settings -> under Wireless & Networks heading -> More -> Wi-Fi Calling
you'll have it though for sure as long as you're a TMO One.
I have the black bootloader, with the black Google splash, I did have the radio but because of significant decrease in LTE service I went back to the most recent T-Mobile radio. I am running Viper Rom and only WiFi calling is missing, not that I use/need it anyhow. you should definitely go for it! The ALL black is sweet.
someone please help me, i did the full GPE conversion in september and all of a sudden for the past few days my phone screen wont turn on after i take it out of my pocket and sometimes restarts on its own. i reset the phone and still nothing. i want to know how can i turn my phone back to stock with s-on and the rest? i think i have to return my phone.

I searched a bit bit can't seem to find an answer to this, which surprises me. Had anyone gotten the tmobile WiFi calling app to work on the At&t Note? I know there are options, but none seem to work as well as the one that comes straight from tmobile.

I gave up on that thing about six weeks ago. Now I use Viber. It works in any country I've been in, on wifi or cellular data.
T-Mobile WiFi calling is tied up in the kernel, to my knowledge you would need a custom kernel for it to work, or a hack that adds the necessary data to the kernel to make it work. I have a T-Mobile HD2 and when I was using it , tons of kernel modding went into making WiFi calling because of course the hd2 wasn't originally android and it needed a modded kernel to make it work, and even after it working it wasn't very stable .
RoloRacer Paranoid on JellyBean
I've been searching for weeks as well and came up with nothing. I've read that it's part of the kernel, part of the TouchWiz framework, etc. Seems there's way too many factors to get the native wifi calling for t-mobile. Apparently, back in the day t-mobile was using GAN based wifi calling, and it was an app. People got it to work on the t-mobile sensation 4g, but that's an HTC phone so it won't work for us. I was reading up on a thread in the galaxy s2 forums of some devs trying to get the native wifi calling on that device (FYI, tmo now uses an IMS based wifi calling structure) and there's a lot of work involved, including modifying some of the framework files, the phone apk and the settings apk.
The best solution at this point is to just flash the Tmo Note stock ROM in the Tmo Note Dev forum. User Tomin.fhl was kind enough to make it flashable and wifi calling works great for me on that. Just wish I was able to use AOKP or PA with wifi calling though
Yeah, I figured out how to get it done, just flash the TMobile stock ROM which is fine with me since I'm on TMobile and actually like the stock... Then you need a new Sim.

Dont you need the AWS chip for that stuff, isnt this a hardware limitation??????
Whatever you need is already built into our phones. I have been using the tmobile WiFi calling feature in my at&t note for a while now. No problems.

If you follow the instructions to flash any stock based T-Mobile ROM onto your i717, it will be there. You need a new SIM though.

GrooVeIP will let you do voip (3g and wifi)
just make sure to set your gvoice account to use your email address as the primary number.
voila! incoming and outgoing voip calls (works for every carrier i've come across)
Wondering if anyone has seen anything on this for the note? I recently moved and tmobile service sucks but I get a good wifi signal in my apartment! Just wondering if there is any other solutions besides gvoice...I get free minutes when I use wifi calling also with tmobile so it would be awesome if it could be incorporated.
Yeah, while there are 3rd party solutions like GrooveIP, the best solution is to follow the link I posted and flash the T Mobile note img file and install the tmobile stock ROM which includes the true tmobile WiFi calling feature.

If you follow the link, toward the bottom of the first post there are instructions on running T-mobile ROM's on the i717. Follow those and you won't have any problems. I also have the at&t version, I believe though, you will have to be on the t-mobile network.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using Tapatalk 2
Yes, right now I am using my note on tmobile, so I guess it has been flashed to or with some other firmware....So would I still need a new sim I do not see why I would.....So you are saying just flashing a tmobile compatible rom. Do you have any suggestions? Maybe one with less bloatware and better battery life.

Might want to make a guide on how to do this. I feel like the T-Mobile Wi-Fi calling is in silent but in high demand by unlocked users.
I'm curious...if the T-Mobile stock ROMs work, why wouldn't a custom ROM for Tmobile also work? Has anyone tried?
This is rediculous
The phones nice but trying to get s good Rom flashed that supports mms and without the SIM error is to hard.
No-one seems to have real fixes
It should have been a STRICTLY vzw phone
All I want is been looking for is a Rom that will flash and have T-Mobile mms and working WiFi and SIM that works

No rom has broken wifi.
To get mms working you need a rom that's gsm only/based off the butterfly.
The sim error is a hardware issue. It has nothing to do with the rom your running or the fact that your using gsm.
And this is strictly a Verizon phone.

newsflash: this is a STRICTLY a vzw phone
because verizon made it (and most of its lte phones) "global" phones to support its customers who travel overseas, its possible to use on gsm networks....which is great and may gsm users pick up verizon devices now
this doesnt mean however, that everything is going to work perfectly for using the dna on other providers.....do not confuse this phone with an unlocked non-branded device....it was created as a verizon lte device
well i live on mexico and i use GSM... and i dont have any issue and my phone is a Verizon...
SIM errors can be fixed by putting a piece of scotch tape on the plastic (read: the side without the metal contacts) side of the SIM. This is a common issue in HTC phones with a SIM tray instead of a slot.
A extremely worthless thread...

I just don't understand why someone would buy this phone, expecting to use it on a different carrier. Why not use a phone designed for that carrier's network? That's like buying a phone that is S-on and expecting S-off. You can hope it comes along, but to just expect it is unrealistic.
Yes, I get that the specs on this phone are/were a motivator, but it's not fair to the phone to get mad because you can't make the phone do something it was never advertised to do. And despite the claims to the contrary, some ROMs work just fine for what you're trying to do.
I don't know what we're yelling about

Okay, to this was a short-lived thread for a reason. But, since it's been revived I'll add that I bought a nice used DNA and I'm a T-Mo customer. Even stock, it worked great on T-Mo here. Granted, I don't live in a 4G T-Mo area anyway so I'm not missing the latest in high-speed data.... anyway, stock I was very pleased. The only thing which didn't work was the wifi hotspot.
Move forward a couple of weeks and now I'm running NOS M7 on it. Thanks to this great forum for the help with that. Wifi hotspot works great, the ROM is robust, and I couldn't be happier.
So, I'm not on Verizon. I'll be using this on T-Mo in the States and on a couple of foreign SIMs when traveling for work. And I love the DNA.

I'm not sure if I you mean will the phone work or will T-Mo service work there. Sorry.... Certainly the phone will work. Mine works fine with a SIM from Germany (Blau) and one from India (AirTel). If you get a Hungarian SIM, it will work.

Considering that this is really supposed to be carrier-neutral, I'd say no, plus the included radio bands are more AT&T friendly so I'd think that'd doubly indicate no wi-fi calling.

I agree.
I doubt any stock Android build will ever have wifi calling built in, at least until it's pushed to AOSP.

Being that the Google Edition is updated directly from google ala nexus, there will be no opportunity for proprietary software to be added in and tested as carriers require.
I have the AT&T One and I am running the stock GE rom. I am in a heavily wooded area in northern united states and I'm able to get a cellular connection right after turning the phone on, but then after 60 seconds I lose the signal. I'm able to send and receive texts for that 60 seconds. If I restart the phone I get that signal back for 60 seconds and then it dies. I have tried flashing two different radios. Same result.

I'm not an owner of a HTC one but just cruising around on your forums but I know with the note 2 and the inspire i use to have, you would always have to make sure the ril file matches the modem file to work correctly. I know AOSP with other phones don't come with a ril file, so unless google edition rom stock modem works with your phone your always going to have poor reception.

Nothing, if you are not in an LTE area. Not sure if that is the question being asked.
And...I'm not sure what you mean by the Hboot not staying. The firmware seems to have flashed just fine, since you have the latest radios.
