Hello guys! I was thinking of switching to the official dirty unicorns rom version 9.4 for my htc one m7 sprint, and was wondering what is the stability like? Also since my phone is s-on is there any extra steps I need to take to flash the rom supplied from http://download.dirtyunicorns.com/files/m7spr/Official/ (the latest 5.1.1 version) . ok, last question, im currently on android 5.0.2 sense 7, so to jump to 5.1.1 do I need to flash a firmware update? I haven't flashed roms much so I don't want to miss anything and brick my phone. Is there anything else I should know before flashing?
Thanks for your help!
Also, which gapps should I use fromhttp://download.dirtyunicorns.com/files/gapps/?
Thanks!

Hello all,
I'm soon going to get a third M7. The device I'm getting has been updated to latest official version with Sense 6 (Android 4.4.3?), so I guess firmware was also updated.
Since I hate Sense 6 (flame away ) I'd like to ask if it's ok to flash an older rom with Sense 5.5 (Android 4.4.2) without downgrading the firmware?
As far as I can remember I had no issues running a Sense 6 rom with older firmware on my previous device, but what about the other way around?
Thank you in advance!

You should be fine, as long as you're S-OFF.
Might want to doublecheck with some more experienced folks here.
So i got kind of a dilemma. I just recent read a bunch of articles that the M7 now has its respective lollipop build. I am currently on CM 11 m12 and im really looking forward for a completely stock gpe device with lollipop and without all of the buggs of a custom rom. Can you guys help and tell me what i need to do to get the gpe lollipop software please??
I simply flashed the Rom. Its from santod GPE 5.0.1. its running flawless.
I am currently running CM11-2014112 on my M7. To do this I unlocked bootloader with FastADP, flashed TWRP, flashed the ROM, flashed GAPPS and loaded SuperUserSU.
I have TitaniumBackup free version for the apps and TWRP for flashing.
I am confused about upgrading to a 5.1 ROM. I am only interested in stable versions. Is there a significant difference from 5.0?
Thusfar I have only found these that claim to be stable:
XenonHD
Skydragon (Beta?)
Viper One
Do I need to be S-Off for any of these ROMs?
Do I need to update firmware before flashing a Lollipop ROM?
Do I need to change/update the radio?
Does anyone have a suggestion for a ROM?
On my HTC One (m7) I have a message suggesting an upgrade on a fresh install of the [ROM][5.1] Google Play Lite Edition / Stable * Fast *
I am not sure if it is safe (or even possible) to do this upgrade since this version of GPE has had alterations to the original. What s the best way to procedd. Will it install all the nonsense google apps I dont want and/or screw up my current ROM install? Totally new to this ROM and I don't see anyone discussing it in the forums for this particular ROM. Any help greatly appreciated. Cheers
I know some guys upgraded to 5.1 but not much. This time just stay at 5.0 and wait until rom cook android 6.0 port to m7.

That's the interesting thing. My ROM is already 5.1, but message is for upgrading to 5.1. This is the confusing thing. Wondering if it will take away the benefits of this ROM (lite version with less bloatware from Google). Thanks for your response though.
Hello, I hope this is the right section... my girlfriend has an old HTC one m7 which used to be mine and I gave it to her converted to google play edition with Lollipop 5.1, the phone is not rooted.
I did this years ago so I don't remember the specific HTC one procedures (I was coming from a samsung back then) but I converted an unlocked tmobile htc one lte to google play edition.
I'm now looking to update this phone to Nougat, especifically crdroid nougat which is aosp/lineage os-based.
I would also like to know how to return to sense if possible.
What would the steps necessary for this be? Do I have to convert the google play edition back to a normal htc one in order to install aosp roms or sense roms?
Thanks in advance.
Can anyone help?

if your phone is running the latest gpe firmware, simply flash twrp and your aosp rom. You don't want to flash the sense firmware back since the nougat roms work better with the gpe firmware.
