Stock means Google play version?
Stock means either the HTC Sense (official) Based ROM
or the Google Play Edition (GPE)
It depends on what version (CID). For the vast majority, yes you will get OTA as long as you are on a stock HTC ROM (not custom, or any system files altered in the stock ROM) and have corresponding stock recovery.
But for some US variants (AT&T, Verizon, maybe others) the OTAs are sent via the carrier's network, and you will not get them if you aren't connected to that specific carrier. This can be circumvented on the AT&T version with s-off if you change the CID and MID to "convert" the phone to another version (not possible with Verizon CDMA version).

No you can't, you need S-OFF... wrong section also...
That is my question, as far as I've read thanks google S Off doesn't work (yet?) for the HTC One X

You can unlock and install other ROMs on branded devices.
We're just having trouble with the Sense JB ROMs because they require an updated hboot, that cannot be installed onto the wrong CID which cannot be changed without S-Off.
Thanks

If you want a stock, unbranded HTC Sense ROM on your phone, your only current option it to flash Mike1986's STOCK ROM. It's based on the UK WWE Unbranded CID but can be flashed on any device with an unlocked bootloaded (via HTC Dev). The downside is that you will ahve to flash back to stock Vodafone ROM to get the Jellybean OTA when it's released, before you can flash Mike's JB roms.
I strongly suggest trying CyanogenMod 10 though. It's leagues above the HTC Sense based ROMs. I certainly wont be going back.
so let me see if i understand,
if i had Vodafone rom and I switch to stock (and unfortunately my CID still VODAP102), I won't get any JB update?

if you're on stock you'll get the JB update as soon as Vodafone releases it... you just need to wait

Yes. You won't be able to update via official OTA with that custom ROM. Unless you flash the custom ROM for JB when it gets released.
To get official OTA you need Vodafone's official ROM back.

Correct, unless you stay on your stock Vodafone ROM, you wont get the JB OTA.
If you use a custom Stock ROM, you wont receive any OTAs, and you'll end up having to return to the Vodaphone stock ROM anyway to upgrade you HBOOT when they release the JB update so you can run a sense enabled JB ROM.
Personally, I'd just go ahead and flash an AOSP or AOKP ROM. I'm on Official CyanogenMod 10 and love it

Hi everyone...I recently got a hold of a one X with CID ORANG001. Hboot 1.12 i think....i did my fair amount of googling but i am still unsure,are there any alternate roms available other than the stock orange one?i realized that it hasn't a 4.1.1 cid compatible firmware yet but can the stock rom be changed and how?
Thanks in advance...

Pretty much all ICS ROMs will work, which means the older versions of the ROMs located in Development section. Also, all CM10, AOSP, AOKP ROMs will work on older hboots. First you need to unlock the bootloader of your device. You can look around for more instructions.
Every ics + aosp+aokp+cm bassed roms

In order to get 4.1.1 update orange has to officially release it correct...?Does anyone have any news about when can we alter the CID and use international roms?

Correct.
For changing cid we need s-off which doesn't seem to be achieved any time soon.

Hi I need help to flash the new firmware on my att m8 to run the new roms I am soff and boot loader unlocked but don't have super cid
2.23 is the latest. Its included on the following ROM. You have to download the whole ROM to get it from this thread, but it has great instructions for those not familiar with the process. Not sure if anyone has posted the 2.23 firmware by itself.

Are you actually using AT&T as your carrier? If so, you probably don't want to flash the 3.x firmware. It includes the radio for the international version, which on past firmwares, were known to not play well with AT&T.
I'd wait until an AT&T specific firmware package is available; which won't happen until AT&T releases 4.4.4 or at least the Dev Edition rolls out.
When you say "new ROMs" I think you mean "ROM" as I believe Maximus is the only custom Sense ROM so far to rebase to 4.4.4 (although I'm sure others won't be far behind).
If I super cid will I be able to do this ?
What if you remove the radio.img file from the firmware zip? Or replace it with the one from latest ATT firmware?

Hey guyss, so i just bought this awesome phone on craigslist and it is already rooted and idk if the guy did anything else beside that ,so is there a way i can check everything like firmware, cid, and all the stuff ?
And also , do i need to convert to gpe if i want to install lollipop roms like SkyDragon gpe , blisspop , or cm12 or do i just need to flash it through recovery?
Sent from my Nexus 5 using XDA Free mobile app
1: update the softwar/firmware to the latest (hboot 3.19).
2: no need to convert to gpe. Skydragon works on sense firmware so it's not mandatory.
3: i know in the backup thread is being talked about s-off and such but it's not necessarily needed, only if you wish but i recommend to read up on what s-off is and can do if you don't know that yet.
3.16 is indeed the oldest firmware. But you can check that also in the at&t section. This section is for the international devices actually.
Since its the AT&T version (from your other posts), there is currently no official update to hboot 3.19 and associated firmware. So you will need to s-off by sunshine in order to update firmware (required to run current ROMs).
You can check the hboot screen to see s-on or s-off. You can check for other details (including CID) with fastboot getvar all (if you post the getvar info, delete your serial number and IMEI as they are personal info).

If using the phone on AT&T's network, I would recommend the firmware included with the following ROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/att-htc-one-m8/development/att-4-4-3-2-22-1540-3-debloated-sense-6-t2837365
Flashing this firmware, you do not need to alter CID.
This is the 4.4.4 (software 3.28) firmware package from the US Developer's Edition, which is intended for use on AT&T. Some folks (myself included) have had issues using the WWE firmware on AT&T's network. In particular, broken Google services while on LTE.

You don't need to fully convert to run GPE ROMs. Just flash them.
Full conversion to GPE only gains you the GPE partitioning (smaller system partition, and larger user accessible storage) as well as enables official GPE OTAs. But you need to convert back to Sense partitioning to run any Sense ROMs. I don't recommend full conversion to GPE for most folks, unless you really want the GPE partition scheme and/or OTAs.
I won't say "any ROM", but the previously linked firmware will enable you to run most or all the current ROMs. Older ROMs might not play well with the newer firmware.

You're welcome, and happy to help.
I would also recommend you check out the AT&T M8 specific forum section, mentioned by Mr Hofs. It contains a lot of info specific to the AT&T variant. This "international" section has lots of good info too, as well as more traffic overall. Neither is really "better", and I actually find it best to read both forum sections:

You need to update the firmware again to 4.16.
Simple rule, you need to have firmware that corresponds to the custom ROM you want to flash.

So that is your software number for the unmodded, stock ROM?
If so, your firmware is current, and you should be able to flash any current ROMs (and probably older ones, too - but most folks usually aren't that interested in older ones) for the GSM M8. Just stay away from any ROMs that only specifically support the CDMA versions (Sprint and Verizon).
I won't say "without any issues" since there is always some chance of issues, even with the completely correct configuration. But I can say that you shouldn't run into issues related to outdated firmware.

Yes. Make sure you pick "other M8 version" (or some such wording - just don't pick Verizon, Sprint, or T-Mobile) in the AROMA installer.
