Hello,
I have just been given a rooted HTC M7 (AT&T). It hasn't been used for almost a year, but it seems to work. It only has a recovery on it, not a ROM. I have no idea how to get it from where it is up to the latest and greatest. Any help or recommendations would be appreciated. I tried to read up on everything, but i couldn't parse out the info I needed from existing threads. I hope my terminology is correct!
Here's what I've got:
Device: AT&T HTC One M7
BOOTLOADER Info:
*** Tampered ***
*** Unlocked ***
M7_UL PVT SHIP S-OFF RH
CID-CWS_001
HBOOT-1.4.4.0000
RADIO-4a.14.3250.13
OpenDSP-v26.120.274.0202
eMMC-boot
May 3 2013, 19:16:59: -1
RECOVERY Info:
TWRP 2.8.1.0
ROM INFO:
I have not loaded a rom onto the device at this point. I haven't felt comfortable since I don't know if the phone in its current state will run the latest roms.
Here's what I need to know.
1. Do I need to update my bootloader? It seems like 1.44 is much older than what other people are currently using. I've seen most people on 1.57 or 1.56. If I do need to update it, what version should I update to?
2. My recovery seems to be almost up to date. I am pretty sure i know how to get the .zip for the latest version, but I don't know if I have to flash it or use another way to install it.
3. I cannot get fastboot working on my windows 8.1 machine. It does work on an old windows 7 laptop I have. It seems like others have this issue on hboot 1.44. Is there any fix for it?
4. Firmware, Kernals, and Radios. How do you know what firmware, kernel, and radio to use for a given device? does it depend on the rom you choose? There seems to be so many and it isn't clear to me.
5. Does it matter if i choose a GPE rom, a Cyanogen Rom, or a Sense Rom? Do kernels, firmwares, and radios depend on the type of rom I choose?
Thanks for all your help! I look forward to using my new to me device.
