I think you can extract the rom.zip, and then edit the android-info.txt file to match your Hboot version, but i don't know how safe that could be. I don't think anything could go wrong because all you are doing is making HBOOT think that you are flashing a newer version of the HBOOT but flashing the old one. Therefore downgrading the Radio, the reason you just can't flash a custom GB rom over an ICS rom is because the Radio is newer than the rom is meant for.
But. if you edit the Zip you can bypass the Security check, because the rom zip is signed. That will make S-off unnecessary.

You will have to go to the HTCDEV.com site and unlock your bootloader in order to root now that you have the ICS update.

If you just want to root your stock ROM, then you can simply flash su-3.0.7.zip from recovery mode instead of flashing a custom, rooted ROM.

Where can I get original firmware?

Hi all
I want to replace the bootloader and install root and maybe CM.
But I was looking for the original bootloader and more importantly, the original firmware so in case I do not want to stick with CM or want to send it in for warranty, I can reset it all.
Could somebody point me to where I can download the needed files?
Thank you guys and girls
I need to inform you that you cannot replace the bootloader. You can only unlock it. Once that is done your warranty is void.
Now I am not sure if that works so someone will have to confirm or you will have to google it, but the RUU resets your phone to stock.
Here is a link to the GolfU RUU
Alternatively you can flash stock ROM, recovery and kernel from this thread right here.
Happy flashing, any further questions you are welcome to ask :3

[STOCK ROM] [5.0.2] [SENSE 6] Sprint 6.16.651.2 AND 6.23.651.3 rooted

Here is the latest ROM for sprint. This is directly from sprint and not a port.
Thanks to
O.M.J - For his ROM's updater-script
I hope this works good for you. The only thing I really did was root it.
WiFi Calling
Yes its in the ROM but it doesn't work thanks to sprint. If you want a version without it let me know.
Deodex.
I did a little research on how it works on ARM but when I searched the ROM, I couldn't find one odex file, so I would assume its deodexed but if I'm wrong please correct me.
Please Download Here
6.23.651.3 IS NOT ON THE WEBSITE LINK IS HERE

I am coming from latest VIPER with the ElementalX Kernel and once I installed this ROM the phone doesn't boot into the system, just recover.

Elementalx is not for lollipop yet, if you flashed that on top of the rom that is what's hanging u up

I didn't, I first flashed just the ROM and the phone would just keep hanging at the HTC screen and restart into recovery. Suggestions?
P.S.
Is looks like there is an Elemental for lollipop http://elementalx.org/devices/htc-one-m7/. I tried that on top of this ROM but it didn't help either. I am not really hung up on Elemental, it's just the kernel that worked for me in the past. At this point I just want this ROM to work.

Boost Mobile OTA Update 1.49.652.3-1

Hi I was just curious if anyone else with Boost Mobile has gotten this update yet and if so if there where anyway they could maybe make and upload a zip file for download that contains the backup files that can be extracted to the twrp folder and restored in recovery? Thanks

There's really no reason to install any update if you're using a rom that's not stock because it's just going to revert back to 1.46 since the roms were made at that time. I downloaded and installed the 1.48 update and as soon as I put my other rom and kernel back I went to check and sure enough it reverted back to the 1.46 so you're just gonna be wasting your time.
Thanks for replying. That's the thing though I am actually using the stock rom. At the moment I have the 1.48 update installed with @pattyboi:) latest kernal.

If you really want the update just flash your stock kernel and then flash your stock recovery and then lock your bootloader and then the update will go through.
That's what I would prefer to do if I were able to but I'm actually stuck without a computer atm. I was just curious to see if anyone else had reserved the update and installed it and could possibly throw me a zip file with twrp backup files like someone had done previously with 1.48.

I honestly don't want to be rude, but you really have to do your own research. You're asking questions, that you can find all your answers for in the forum sections or by simply google them. I personally really don't recommend you flashing any custom rom or do anything to your phone until all the basics are clear enough to you to start off. Once you have some ideas what flashing, custom roms, custom kernels... etc are it will be a very simple and SAFE process to move on! Good luck!
