No... Don't flash an international rom into your Sprint. That would most likely have extremely ugly results. I don't have a solid answer for you yet but if/when I stumble over one, I'll get back to you. I just don't want you ending up with a $600 paperweight!
Can not be [email protected] conversion due to cdma hardware...theres a couple roms based on cdma carrier bases...but an international rom will not work on it ...sorry

By unlocking you mean from the carrier? If you update, you should receive the update from the carrier you are on.

After relocking you will (Bootloader). I am putting one of my One's on E-Bay, all the work is already done, S-Off, Dev edition RUU, 32 gig ATT version with the media thing. PM me if you are interested, it is going on tonight for shipping to US only. Very good condition, original box.

Well if you aren't using AT&T anymore, then you can't use AT&T updates.

Yeah no updates till now, they rolled 4.4.3 but pulled it due to battery drain problems with OTA, but if u flash the 4.4.3 RUU you won't have any problems, or just wait till they roll 4.4.4

I'm sure you've heard from even friends you know to Google things.
Anything that's mentioned in any thread on XDA just put into your search bar or Google now "OK Google" and you will begin to learn all about that bad ass device you hold in your hand.I also recommend either the XDA app or Tapatalk app for easier navigation of the forums you may view.
Unless on att as a carrier you wont get any updates from them,best bet is to soff change cid and flash us developer ruu 3.28.1540.5

I believe what he's saying is that if you have an unlocked (international) version of the M8 you wont get updates from AT&T just because that's the carrier you're using. You'll get the international models updates.
So I bought the device from some guy from Canada
it's unlocked at&t device (I'm not at&t carrier)
This is why you wont get updates from att,your not on their network,doesnt matter if phone is att based,the updates come from the carrier your using. Unlocked/US Developer devices are different they are supported directly ftom htc not a specific carrier. If your cid is CWS__001, You have an ATT branded phone,unlocked or not you wouldnt get any updates from ATT.

So what you suggest me ?
Can I change it not to be at&t? If I can I'll be happy for some
quick understandable guide please.
Look in the at&t development section and you will find a guide for either "Dev edition" or "GPE" conversion .good luck with
S-OFF

Not that one is better so much as what you prefer.I like the light bare bone AOSP of GPE .the Dev edition is still sense and it's supposed to get updates faster than carriers like at&t,T-Mobile

You sure it is a DNA and not a butterfly or other carrier variant? the DNA CID is VZW_001 and the 3 digit carrier code is 605, not 401. Below is the firmware for the Verizon DNA models.

I honestly don't know. Most times I have suggested it, it has worked. I was able to do it in any Verizon model I tried personally even when there is no SIM or service to the device. I would think it should work for other people if it worked without VZW service for me.

It's a little strange because we do not have that device, so likely none of us will have the files you need/want or are looking for.
Yet you have asked in just about every active thread in the Dna forums.
Looking in your devices forum, is going to provide you the best results, and asking over there as well.
None of us have Butterflies or files for them.
Try HERE: LINK
This is for Butterfly X920D
So be sure you are only flashing what's intended for your variant.
I have no idea if that's what you need or not, but it will certainly be closer then anything we have here.

Can't be certain from your post, but it sounds like you are not on AT&T's network, and possibly not even in the US.
You need to be on AT&T's network to get OTA update for the AT&T M8. This isn't true for most other versions of the M8, AT&T is fairly unique in this regard.
You can download the RUU to a PC, and update with your phone connected: http://dl3.htc.com/application/RUU_M8_[email protected]41216A_40.34.C35006.02_F_release_407726_signed_2.exe
Bear in mind, that updating to Android 4.4.4 will break sunshine s-off. You will not be able to s-off unless sunshine is updated to include a new exploit. So if you want s-off, its highly recommended to use sunshine (the only method at this time) before updating to 4.4.4.
tnx to reply.... if i convert to gpe can i get google update?
and i have noob qouestion...
if i update freamware will my phone sim lock?

Yes you will. But you need to s-off and change CID/MID in order to do a "full conversion" (stock firmware, stock ROM, stock recovery, etc.).

No, updating firmware, ROM flashing, etc. will not SIM lock the phone. The only way that will happen is if you lock it yourself.

Hold on, I'm just reading that sunshine now supports 4.4.4 and 5.0! This is a very recent change:
http://theroot.ninja/download.html
But if you decide you want s-off, anyway; I'd still recommend you do it while still on a lower hboot number (before updating) just to be safe.
ok tnx again.... i dont risk... and i s_off before update...
last question is... what is the best way to convert to gpe... there is many tutorial in internet... if give me a link... its better
i searching for best and safe way

you can change it, but theres no benefit to it on a cdma phone
So we are not able to flash international Roms correct?

You can if you want , but like schmeggy said there is no benefit for cdma. OTA's are slowly making there way out. I'd just wait till sprint receives the 1.40 update (if that's the next one) then look into flashing different ROM's that match up with the firmware.

Was just wondering if this is because the hardware is incompatible or because it would just no longer work on Sprint? I had my M9 unlocked and I was planning on useing it on T-Mobile and figured another firmware might work better.

Do not flash firmware from another variant, (Verizon, T-Mobile). You will brick your phone. Also The Sprint M9 cannot be used on T-Mobile, Verizon or AT&T.
