[Q] Are there any differences between A510a and A510e?

I've been thinking of installing a new ROM on my Wildfire S, and I noticed that most posts about ROMs refer to the A510e. Now, I'm wondering if there are any significant hardware differences between the A510a and the A510e that would prevent me from installing the ROMs, in general. By the way, I'm on Virgin Mobile Canada, and it's a GSM phone. Thank you, and I apologize if this question has already been asked.

i think 510a is america version and 510e is europe
difference is just network frequences
you can try roms but i recommend make a nandoid backup first
sorry for bad english

The only difference is the Radio Frequencies that are present...............I think Virgin Mobile Canada works on a frequency that is not available in the International version of the wildfire s...............There shouldnt be much(or any) problems while flashing any rom as long as it is for the GSM variant

[Q] One V versions?

First of all, hi everybody! This is my first post, coming from the Nexus S which suddenly decided to die while charging. That was an awesome phone, and I hope the One V will step up and take its place successfully.
Now, in he NS forums, there was a thread with all the different versions of the phone, but I haven't found something similar here.
Can anybody help me in finding out which version I have? And maybe a list of other versions?
(completely stock for now)

Baseband version: 20.76.30.0835U_3831.19.00.120

For staters there are only 2 versions (if we don't count in PrimoDS (dual sim) which is called Desire V.
There is PrimoU, the GSM and PrimoC the CDMA version. If you use the phone with a SIM card, then it is PrimoU. The primo is the codename of the phone.
HTC has regional softwares (not including the carrier types of course, like T-mobile). Updates comes according to your CID, the main regions are WWE_Europe, China, Arabic, Asia, India, HongKong, USA or America (but those are mainly CDMA phones). These are the most common ones I'we known so far. So software differs from place to place .
According your data, you have 2.22.2 sw version (707 is the region code) and a T320e which is PrimoU if I'm correct, so GSM with SIM card.
The 707 region code means you use the WWE_Asia ROM, so the phone originates from asia.
Please note that if you root your phone going back to stock won't be that easy, not to mention that if you unlock your phone HTC will know it in the service, so warranty will be a question of good-will for the service.
Eventough I say that, my phone is like a snail on the stock even with OC kernel compared to CM10 .

Thank you very much! That is correct, I am using a SIM card so it's the GSM one. I had no idea that there were basically two versions, and a couple of software versions (that's what happens when coming from a different system I guess).
I also saw that rooting would be tricky, unlike the Nexus S, but I still chose HTC over Samsung for my next phone, because Sam's build quality let me down big time. This really feels premium, for such a (relatively) budget phone.

In any case that you need the official RUU, here it is : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=30994089&postcount=121
Rooting is not that hard when you know what you are doing. But unlocking the bootloader with HTC own unlocking method, it may void the warranty but that I believe depends on which country. For me, I don't have any problem when claiming the warranty so far.

You'll probably have to change your CID since you're unlocked and S-OFF but it seems possible as long as it's another GSM ROM.
But you're better off asking in the general HTC One forum, not in the Verizon HTC One forum, as ours is a special variant.

OK thanks.

Adding to the mix a bit... once you unlock get S-off and ger supercid... the verizon branded phone could get a radio flashed of other carrier with the available frequency and a rom with its respective sim card to go to other carrier like say cricket? but it kind of seem to easy to me and im kind of confused in that matter.

Yes with s-off you can easily convert it to Developer Edition - International or GPe

thanks. that was the only thing i had in mind that whether or not the international roms are compatible with it. coz verizon and AT&t m8 have separate development forums on xda

thats because the americans cant agree to use the same radio frequencies for their networks, so companies need to make different models for each carrier.
i bought myself an used phone on o2, s-off'd it, changed the cid to GOOGL01 and flashed the GPE conversion RUU. HTC__001 is the sim free cid if you want to flash a sense RUU to completely unbrand your device

You'll be good with international based ROMs. You wouldn't be good with others. The O2 M8 is International WWE. You may have to update your firmware though, to run the latest ROMs, otherwise your wifi will not work.

Buying a One M9 - regional variants?

Hi guys,
Planning to get a One M9 refurb from the Internet.
However, I do not know if I am getting an Asian/US/European version.
This brings me to my questions:
1. Is there such a thing as a US/European/Asian version? It appears like all regions use the same hardware (from my limited research)
2. Can I cross-flash Asian firmware on a US or European set? I will probably need an Asia WWE / South East Asia ROM.
Thank you!

The main difference is cdma and gsm. If you keep the phone stock you'll want one for your region so you can accept ota's. Otherwise.. Cdma and gsm..
