Re: Is there a root or mod for this?

I was originally on stock sense 6 and then flashed GPE Rom. So now I want to know how to flash the Maximus HD rom from GPE Rom?

That Rom isnt compatible with Sprint
Look here for a rom....http://forum.xda-developers.com/sprint-htc-one-m8/development

Look here for a rom....Sprint One (M8) Android Development - XDA Forums

Then what other rom do you recommend that is based on sense 6 and has great battery life and performance?

Ok I will take a look at your bad boyz rom but are you sure the Maximus HD Rom does not work on 4.4.3 sprint HTC One M8? Benny3 I just read your earlier post and you said clean rom does not work on sprint htc one m8. Sorry I don't know how I missed your post

Read the OP and it should say which devices are supported.. I would strongly suggest for you to do a lot of reading on Flashing roms and using fastboot and adb. Get yourself familiar with the commands, What to expect, making backups. Rule # 1, always make and keep a nand backup on the phone before flashing anything just in case something goes wrong or you dont like what you flashed and you can always restore your backup and be back to where you were before flashing. #2 always ask if you don't understand something before you do it. It's much easier then trying to fix after its messed up. Join XDA, and it's always best to ask questions in the thread of the rom, mod or whatever you want to flash.I'll post some links for you later when i get time

OK quick question, While I am currently on GPE rom. I want to flash android revolution HD rom coming from GPE rom. I downloaded the android revolution HD rom. Do I just boot into recovery and use twrp to flash android revolution HD rom? Or are there more steps?

Thats pretty much it but you do want to wipe cache, Dalvik and data when going from one rom to another. Make sure the rom is for sprint.
Im not seeing a revolution HD rom for the Sprint M8

Re: Is there a root or mod for this?

I have a serious problem now!!!! As I was flashing the android revolution hd rom on my sprint htc one m8 I saw your post and you said there is no sprint version of the android revolution hd rom. I flashed the android revolution hd rom and when I was at the setup screen for "I agree terms" it froze and then I turned off the phone and turn phone back on and now it is stuck at htc logo white screen

You need to READ and find a ROM that supports Sprint

My M8 posted this

Re: Is there a root or mod for this?

Thank god I figured it out on my own. In order to get out of htc boot screen, I had to hold the power and vol up for 10 seconds and then when the screen turned off, I hold vol down while still holding power. Then I booted into twrp recovery. Then I had to do adb command and push the GPE Rom to my phone and flashed the GPE Rom back. So now I am back on GPE. Well I definitely learned something today, I have to make sure the rom I flash works for my sprint HTC One M8.

Yeah you need to be careful. Thats why i suggest you do some reading before attempting anything so you have some idea what you are doing.
