LineageOS 14.1 For The HTC One M9 Sprint variant! - Sprint HTC One (M9)

I was disappointed to find that the HTC One M9 Sprint (himawhl) wasn't on the supported device list for LineageOS. So I figured I would try my luck and install lineageos for the Verizon version of the phone. I got an error saying that my device was a himawhl not a himawl. So I opened the ZIP file and navigated to \META-INF\com\google\android and opened the updater-script file and changed himawl to himawhl. I then sent the ZIP to my phone and it worked!
Everything seems to be working minus GPS and 60 FPS recording.
Hope this helped someone out If you have any questions feel free to ask them

Here's what my updater-script looks like:
assert(getprop("ro.product.device") == "htc_himawhl" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "htc_himawhl" || getprop("ro.product.device") == "himawhl" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "himawhl" || abort("E3004: This package is for device: htc_himawhl,himawhl; this device is " + getprop("ro.product.device") + ".");
assert(hima.verify_sbl1("1.2.50.1.36","1.2.50.1.37","1.2.50.1.38") == "1");
ui_print("Target: htc/HTCOneM9vzw/htc_himawhl:6.0/MRA58K/669662.7:user/release-keys");
ifelse(is_mounted("/system"), unmount("/system"));
package_extract_dir("install", "/tmp/install");
set_metadata_recursive("/tmp/install", "uid", 0, "gid", 0, "dmode", 0755, "fmode", 0644);
set_metadata_recursive("/tmp/install/bin", "uid", 0, "gid", 0, "dmode", 0755, "fmode", 0755);
mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/system", "/system", "");
run_program("/tmp/install/bin/backuptool.sh", "backup");
unmount("/system");
if is_mounted("/data") then
package_extract_file("META-INF/org/lineageos/releasekey", "/tmp/releasekey");
run_program("/tmp/install/bin/otasigcheck.sh") != "31744" || abort("Can't install this package on top of incompatible data. Please try another package or run a factory reset");
else
mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/userdata", "/data", "");
package_extract_file("META-INF/org/lineageos/releasekey", "/tmp/releasekey");
run_program("/tmp/install/bin/otasigcheck.sh") != "31744" || abort("Can't install this package on top of incompatible data. Please try another package or run a factory reset");
unmount("/data");
endif;
show_progress(0.750000, 0);
ui_print("Patching system image unconditionally...");
block_image_update("/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/system", package_extract_file("system.transfer.list"), "system.new.dat", "system.patch.dat") ||
abort("E1001: Failed to update system image.");
show_progress(0.020000, 10);
mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/system", "/system", "");
run_program("/tmp/install/bin/backuptool.sh", "restore");
unmount("/system");
show_progress(0.050000, 5);
package_extract_file("boot.img", "/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/boot");
show_progress(0.200000, 10);
set_progress(1.000000);
Edit: fixed a typo

Thank you for this - it seems to be working so far.
How would I go about installing LineageOS updates? Can I install it directly from the notification, or do I need to download it each time, make the same edit to himawhl, and reflash?
Thanks!

I haven't tried the latest update. Some people have reported the GPS works. It might not work for me because I have xposed installed.

I'm using this method on my Sprint one m9 (Himawhl), and GPS works fine for me.
