[Q] Rom questions HTC One S S4 S-Off-ed - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everyone. I am totally new at this. I have a HTC One S S4 . It has TWRP 2.7.1.0. The device is also S-Off-ed. Can I run ANY custom rom or does it have to be specifically for the device? I was under the impression. Now that it is S-Off i can run any rom?? I wanted to try the new HTC One rom. IDK if that is ok or not? Any input is GREATLY appreciated.
Thanks in advance

You can run any rom that is specifically stated to work with your phone. If you are updating to a higher version, you might need to flash the appropriate firmware so the radio and touch sensors work properly. So you can't use an HTC One rom, but you can use one that has been ported to your device from it.

Want to change my ROM to HTC Original

I have a HTC HD2 from T-Mobile USA. Now, I dont want that T-mobile customization including the "Stick Together" start up screen. I think I can do a ROM installation.
Also, I have SPL installed. Is there anyway to install a HTC Original ROM without installing HSPL ?
I need a latest HTC Original ROM to flash my device. Also, I need HTC Sense in it.
Can anybody give me the link to download the latest version of this?
Also, how can I take a backup of full phone to restore, if it didnt work?
Can anybody help me?
it's good that you couldn't find an original rom, because IT WILL DESTROY YOUR PHONE.
your phone cannot take ANY official roms except the tmo us official roms.
the radio in all other officiall roms is not compatible with the tmous, and your phone will never work again.
you can change the stick together screen without changing rom, but you do need hspl3 to do it.

Search for Stock ROMs in the forum and you will find HTC ROMs. You can also get it on HTC website.
You won't be able to change ROM without installing HSPL.
The stock ROM comes with HTC sense.
You can use various backup options including PIMbackup (for msgs and calls and stuff), SPBbackup for full backup including registry settings and stuff.

BUT as sam said above, a STOCK HTC ROM will kill the TMOUS HD2 due to the radio , it will brick it most likely.
So You do not Want a STOCK HTC ROM on a TMOUS HD2 ...
i repeat ......

Thank you guys. Now I have installed HSPL3. I hope I am now safe to install any custom ROM.
I am looking for a custom ROM.
Also, whether the Android 2.2 ROM available for HTC HD2(T-Moible USA)?

no, not 'any' custom rom, only roms that say 'tmous compatible'
Do you know you are in the 'regular hd2' section?
You should go to THIS forum instead.
Thank you.

[Q] New ROM on HTC Thunderbolt

Hello all,
I am new to Rooting, Unlocking bootloaders n all that.
My question is simple. Hope somebody can help me out.
Is it enough to Unlock the bootloader on my HTC Thunderbolt to install a new ROM ?(Now that HTC has released bootloader unlocking from HTCDev.com for the Thunderbolt)
I want to install HTC Sense 3.5 on the phone without rooting the phone.
Is this possible ?
If so, can someone provide me a link to downloading the HTC Sense 3.5 ROM. I tries searching and I am not quite sure how to get the correct ROM which will work well. Also, I would like to have the HTC Sense 3.5 as clean as possible.
Is there any specific ROM that would give me a very clean experience ?
Can xda members also help me out on Ste-by-Step instructions to installing the new Sense 3.5 ROM to my phone ?
Any help is much appreciated !
Thanks in advance !
No you need root in order to flash a custom rom, everything you need to do so is in the stickies in the development stickies.
Well, you don't need root to flash a custom ROM, but most likely the custom ROM will have root regardless. To flash, you just need a custom recovery installed.

[Q] Want to Flash ViperX Rom

So right off the bat I have very little knowledge of rooting and flashing roms. I did however successfully unlock, root and flash CM10 onto my AT&T HOX a few months ago. I want to try out the ViperX rom but after reading the install instructions I noticed that I needed to have HBOOT 1.31 or higher and I have 1.14. The only way to get the higher HBOOT is to have a compatible CID # from what I can tell mine isnt on the list included in the link that they posted. Is it really required? What would be my options if I wanted to change to the ViperX Rom?
Thanks in advance!

first off you are posting to the HTC One forum not the HTC One X. You are aware that flashing roms not made for your device will brick your device, right? If you have a HTC One X find out if it is the AT&T version and make your way over the the right forum. If it is the HTC One Turge confirmed on facebook that he will be making a viper rom for the HTC One. Just wait

[Q] Where Can I Get...???

Noob question but I cannot find the answer – one that I trust and can, with confidence, understand. Where can I find stock version of 4.3 (or 4.4 for that matter). I"m still on 4.1.2. I'm so looking to get a newer version. Why? I don't know exactly but I'd say because I've read reports that it runs smoother, faster and better on battery.
Too, is there a site that has all the possible ROMs for the HTC One (att)? Recommendations?
I assume that I, after I find the rom I want to install, boot into recovery, wipe the device and then install (having found the downloaded rom file on my sim)? Yes??
Thanks! Thanks! Thanks in advance!!!
stock rom if you are s-on you need to relock your bootloader
http://www.htc.com/us/support/news.aspx?p_id=628&p_name=htc-one-att
all the roms here and in this forum work on the att version

it is a lot of custom roms for T328w here & on 4pda 1 topic, 2 topic.
Since all of them have english and most of them is multilanguage.
& No, you can`t install other ROM or some specific, without necessary knowledge.
