I bought this phone as a used phone from a local market, as i love custom roms it'd be great if i can safely flash it on this device? I'm confused because i know Htc is the most complicated when it comes to rooting. Im Currently rooted with twrp installed on this phone. Just wanted to know if the supercid and everything is on point for me to flash any custom rom? Also im not interested in stock roms and the im also worried about losing cellular signals. Because i dont really know of this device was factory sim unlocked or not. Thanks in advance.

Update: i safely managed to flash Insert Coin nougat custom rom on this device. I took the chances and got successful.
Gonna leave the thread in case somebody else gets in the same situation.
Please read the ReadMe thread for finding out why you shouldn't use the SCID on this phone and why you need to be careful with flashing RUUs (hint: you own a CDMA device). In addition, I'd recommend you getting back to a stock state and installing all available OTAs before you flash a custom rom. The needed guides and files should be available in the ReadMe thread, as well.

So here goes, when I'm trying to find my kernel version all I get is 2.6.35.11, with no other information whatsoever. I reset it to factory settings (I bought it used off of ebay) to see if that may help and there was no such luck. So I took the liberty of taking a screenshot hoping that would you might be able to help me This is only my second android device (my first was a g1 that I rooted back when texts entered information into the terminal) so be gentle.

Now I'm not sure what to do at the moment, but any help would be awesome. I would really like to root my phone so I can get all this garbage software off of it. Thanks guys!
Not sure what you are trying to accomplish, you are running 2.3.5 as your android version, you can use SuperOneClick to root it ...
Or you can Use Odin to flash a custom recovery , and root it ...
and then you can install whatever custom ROM you want as long as it is compatible with your phone ...

I was going to try and link you to the method I found but I found something on AndroidNZ that I thought would work. I'm sorry if this sounds like a stupid thread, I'll try the things you guys just mentioned.

As you can see in the image,I have recently rooted my htc one m8 (at&t) and then installed a custom rom (MaximusHD 11.0.0) to update my android device from 4.4.3 to 5.0.1.It was installed properly,everything is fine except the wifi.It's not working. What can I do now to make it work again?Thanks to all.

There was a firmware attached to it for download (firmware_unsigned_4.16.401.10) zip file. but I didnt do anything with it.I just put the custom rom in my internal sd card and flashed it. How will I use this zip file? and will I have to install the rom again? Or should I move to any other custom rom?
Thanks a lot & I would be very grateful if the procedures are given !!
Depends if you are s-off or on, depends if the firmware matches your original CID & MID.
Fastboot getvar all
Give the outcome of that command minus the SERIAL AND IMEI !
Hi!
I have strange problem with my phone. In all ROM from HTC, statusbar looks like burned - in GPE roms too. Only in CyanogenMOD I don't have this problem. A lots of people will talk that this is device problem, this isn't software. Ok, but why I don't have this problem on CM12.1? Where is fuc$#% logic HTC?
Thanks for a replies.

Why come here to xda and start flaming/blaming HTC, keep your head straight and think before you write. No need to start faul language also !
Sure your device meets the needed criteria to run the roms you flash ? Sure you full wiped properly before flashed a new rom ?

Have to agree, the OP seems more interested in complaining than supplying enough info to get a solution; such as getvar details, what ROMs flashed, etc. "all ROM" doesn't cut it.
Hello!
Because I will travel soon I decided to use my old HTC One m8 as an additional phone. I didn't use m8 for over 2 years now so when I started to play an update came up and obviously I followed the update. After that, I wasn't able to turn the phone on. It is stuck on white HTC logo screen. I am able to access bootloader but factory reset or recovery doesn't help. The phone is not rooted, I do not have any recovery tools installed or anything.
I checked a lot of threads on the forum and didn't find the answer. most of the times people were saying to access bootloader and do recovery/factory reset, but it doesn't help.

Not really a lot of options to recover a stock device, if no RUU is available from HTC for your version (which would normally be the tool for an stock device). And not RUU for your version AFAIK.
In that case, the way forward would be to restore a stock TWRP backup (6.13.206.5); which is a rather complicated process if you aren't familiar with modifying the phone. You will need to unlock the bootloader, install custom recovery TWRP, and restore the stock TWRP backup from the collection:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-m8/help/tutorial-how-to-stock-stock-twrp-t3086860
Let us know if that is something you are willing to do. If so, we can give more details on unlocking the bootloader (which is mandatory before you can follow the guide linked above).
Hi Guys,
Need some expert assistance.. I tried to root my HTC 10 because of some reason that my battery life issue after the O8 update. My phone will turn-off even my battery charge is still 20% to 30% then I will recharge it. I want to use again the original HTC stock Nougat ROM.
Now. I rooted my phone and unlocked bootloader and I use TWRP. I backup my system/image and copy my backup to my OTG-USB. Then, I wiped all Dalvik, system, cache and data and tried to use Leedroid. But, when I checked my custom rom my telecom provider didn't recognize I guess its not compatible with my provider and now I want to go back to original HTC 10 Nougat 7.0 stock rom.
I can't load/flash any RUU exe or OTA because there's already an error something like related to S-ON or what. I tried to set my S-ON to S-OFF using sunshine-latest.apk but it say's my rom already modified.
I hope someone can teach my what ROM/OTA/RUU that i will use and how to flash OTA/RUU file because there's always an error.
I will attached some images of my phone.. (can't attached link of my images)
