I'm starting a list of Noob questions for the Dev Edition
and hopefully someone can answer them.
1) Can the stock Non-Rooted VZW Non Dev Edition be ODIN'd on this device?
2) Can GE image Non-Rooted be ODIN'd on this device?
3) Can any of the ROMs' in these Forums be used with this device once custom recovery installed and Rooted?
This list will be updated as I will get/have more questions and answers

Wondering if this is possible?
I have a C6806 through Bell. It however uses the Sony Branded ROM. Would this update work or are their hardware differences which would cause a brick?

Oh please read some threads in this great forum it got asked soo many times. To your question: No as of now this is not possible. And most likely making your device a regular GPe will not be possible too. A modified version of the rom will be available soonish

I purchased a c6806 from Bell about 3 weeks ago and would prefer to be on the GPe firmware, if possible. Under the Android development forum for the Xperia ZU, bigxie has posted a port of DooMLoRD's 4.4 ROM. With my unlockable bootloader, is it even possible for me to attempt to flash this rom? And if I do, will it mostly likely brick my device?

It does say unlocked in the OP of the thread, and needs either the stock GPE kernel or the modified GPE kernel. I dont believe that either will boot on a locked ZU

You're on Bell which means that Bell have locked the bootloader themselves. You can't unlock your bootloader, so you can't flash custom ROMs (including GPe). This might change in the future though (if some dev manages to crack it), but don't count on it.
Yep, the title is pretty much it. I would like to retain my bootloader unlock so I can root when I OTA to lollipop after I get back to stock. Can anyone guide me?
Have a read of the stickier in the gpe section, or any of the other 3 threads on the subject where it has been answered
I've done some searching but since my gpe is mixed with Sony's version of z ultra on xda, I can't find a straight answer. so I'm pretty sure its no. I wanna root and add a custom recovery to a z ultra gpe that's already on 5.0. I bought it this way.

The issue that I see is that the only safe way to unlock bootloader is to root first and back up TA partition prior to unlocking. As far as I know there is not an exploit to root 5.0 yet. @DooMLoRD posted some rooted images but never got around to posting instructions how to use them. I unlocked my bootloader on 4.4.3 GPe and everything was fine till 4.4.4 update which broke camera and only fix was to revert to 4.4.3 and not allow it to update.
Curious if htc one m8 has a stock rom rooted android 6.0 and if so can you provide a link. I have looked on forum and can't find any.

They are in the "international" development forum.
Not sure if you are looking for GPE or Sense (Dev Edition is the only one released so far), but here are links for both:

Neither is rooted by default due to the funkiness of rooting MM, and the file protection on this device. The Sense ROM is rooted by choosing so in the AROMA installer. For the GPE ROM, I believe obtaining root is discussed in the thread. Otherwise, there is a thread for MM root in the "international" General forum section:
