Right to 4.3 :) - Sprint HTC One (M7)

Idk about everyone else but this made me kind of excited lol
http://www.phonearena.com/news/HTC-One-will-skip-4.2.2-and-go-straight-to-4.3-says-president_id46519

This may only be for the HTC One Dev edition, which is what the question was about, but since the dev edition is just an unlocked HTC One, it seems likely the plan will be the same for all One devices in the U.S.

As far as we know, we may get stranded on 4.1.

^This. I will not be buying HTC or CDMA phones again. At least with GSM, you can use international updates.

Forget it im going back to my damn G1

Jason Mackenzie is answering A LOT of questions on twitter today... Allegedly he wants 4.3 on the dev edition by the end of September if not earlier.

Guys, there are already like 20 threads on the update. Is a new one for each comment, story, or reference to it really necessary?

Old news ! Not nice to start a " new " thread for something we had not expected anyway.
Yeah, I know its old news. But even so, a large amount of people do not know this, so its still worth posting.
Do you realize what board you're on? Don't generalize, you have been left behind, not me. I've been running WM6.1 on my Tilt since the winter when it first leaked and have been running the lasted build since Monday.

Everyone here knows this and it is not worth posting as you will find out.
No, I have browsed through some threads and it seemed that a decent amount of people had not realized that only the HTC-Branded devices had recieved the update.
People who read stuff already knew for like a month that the update would probably be only for HTC branded devices, I guess you don't.
Anyways, it doesn't mean there won't be official updates for you, just that your company, whichever it is, will have to customize things first before releasing a rom, especially adding all their bloatware.
Oh, and about accelerated graphics, please, noone got them, it's not that you're a special target.
I know that there were some "fixes" but no drivers, and it has been said that ATT users will get it, just when they get ready to release it after adding all their crap.

I am here to help , what was the question ? I just heard a rant that the mods have said ( continually ) is not appropriate for these forums. If you read the official announcement from HTC when they announced the TYtN upgrade, they said that they had no plans to release an upgrade fer the Tilt in the near future. Why is this rant important to this forum?
What are you talking about denco? This is not even a rant, it is a statement. I did not mean for it to be a rant and I did not mean for people to mistake it as one. I merely meant to inform people that only the branded HTC devices got the update. It appeared as though alot of people had not realized this, or, at least enough for me to post. I can even show you some quotes if you need me too.
Denco, please look up the definition of 'rant'.
htc rom
Just talked to HTC. There is no 6.1 rom from them for the HTC phones (mine is the TYTN II) available anywhere on the globe.

I am not trying to entice the argument here, but i will add couple of things:
a) Most of the "regular" members here at xda already know that the tilt or any other branded version of the tytnII will not be getting the updates. (emphasis on regular).
b) none of the xda members really care about official updates as we have very gifted and talented chefs here that can port roms for us (and we are truly greatful for that) and seeing that the only diffrence between the TytnII and tilt is the front camera that shouldn't be a big deal.
c) drivers (which there aren't none) can also be ported. There are chefs already working on porting the diamond drivers over to tilt which runs vga.
Having said that i would like to thank you for the info ... but unfortunately its old news and no one likes repeatedly hearing old news.

Did you try hitting the download link at the bottom of this link -

Welcome to the ROM update for the AT&T Tilt. Please review the following prior to downloading and installing the latest ROM update (version 1.62.502.0) on your device.

I very nearly downloaded this one by mistake. I registered with htc but my phone S/N is not a real HTC device and was still logged in, but I managed to (mistakenly) download the file from that link without much issue.
That help?
That's still only 6.0..

Those bastards! Oh wait. I'm not worse off than I was before. Even If I didn't have XDA to feed my obsession for ROM flashing.

I don't know who you spoke with but they were wrong; I just ran the HTC RUU (Rom Upgrade Utility) from the HTC e-club web site and the splash screen clearly states Windows Mobile 6.1. I have an HTC TYTN II and it works great.

LOL, nice call on NASIOC...as well as EvoM
The thing that puzzles me about this is the way the AT&T Tilt gets singled out as if it's special - in reality it's just one dozens of rebranded Kaisers around the globe, none of which have had an official update. I have a "Vodafone V1615", am I whining about where to download a Vodafone update for my Vodafone V1615? No, of course not, with the help of this forum it's been running the original HTC rom since October, and upgraded to the HTC 6.1 update a couple of days ago (before it was released by HTC in fact). So what's the problem?
The irony is the AT&T Tilt is (I believe) the only variant to have it's own section of the HTC website, and to actually have already had a rom upgrade back in February, albeit 6.0 only. Where are all the complaints about that from owners of the V1615, or the T-Mobile Vario 3, or the Orange Tytn II, or O2 XDA Stellar, or the "3" Tytn II, etc etc..?

Getting Interested!!

Hi; Vivid fans
I am looking at buying a new phone i am currently using my Samsung Infuse.
I have have been reading your forum for a couple of days no and i have a couple of questions. I am leaning towards the Vivid
Now that the phone can be unlocked can the Raider Roms be used on the AT&T phones?
Do you think now that the phone can be unlocked will there be more Devs,Roms and just over all action in the Forum?
I like my Infuse but I have all ways been a fan of HTC and would like to come back over.
Thank You,

Hi, shogunmark
Thank you for reply and asking about future activate wasn't really a literal question i just thought I would ask the members who have been for awhile if there has been an increase. and thank you again

Unlock just happened, so its hard to tell. But before unlock there were a few devs saying they would make ROMs once it got unlocked.

I for one have been waiting for this to happen. I knew it was a matter of time, but the real issue was with how long. I can finally retire my N1 and may just run over to the AT&T store to pick one up tonight.
There was alot of angst going on here on these forums over the lack of a proper root, but now with hboot now being open it's become a viable platform again.
Once I have one in hand, may end up posting my N1 up for sale on the forums to keep the old but still free Android flagship flying.
You should also take into consideration that this is a Sense-based phone so you're bound to have many potential devs looking for a new platform to bring their roms from other devices to the first ATT LTE HTC phone. I mean Desire HD has a ton of devs that could really take off with the Holiday/Raider/Vivid.

This was posted by someone else on this same general forum about 5 days ago. A second post is always good incase people didn't see it the first time. There are some real assholes on our threads that complain about everything so don't let it get to you when you get a flood of people being rude about you making this post. Just ignore it!
are there plans to release it to any other carriers than tmobile? just curious....

I don't think so. I think this is gonna continue being a GSM only device. Other carriers may get it around the world but I doubt Sprint and Verizon will ever get it. There was a rumor in Jan that VZW & Sprint were getting it under the name Journal but that has since been proven to be the codename of a different device.
Thanks
Good info
Omg double posts lol just kidding its a good read no matter how many times we see it thank u

The question is will it be the same hardware as the At&T version or the international version? The pictures indicate that more than likely it will be the same at the AT&T but why would T-Mo phone have a LTE modem? It would be great if it had the same specs as the international. Just my .02 cents.

MIUI HTC One official support!

http://en.miui.com/thread-6831-1-1.html
If any of you guys are MIUI fans and would like to see it get an official port please take the time to make an account for the English MIUI site and vote in the thread listed above. Whichever phone gets more votes will get the official release first.
Thanks for your time!
Already voted!

I just watched a video of MIUI v5 and that's pretty freakin' impressive. HTC should take a couple notes here. I wonder though, if they decide to officially support the HTC One, is it going to be for International versions only, or would it work completely with Sprint's model? I'd be willing to root my phone to get an official version of this, but only if it's not something we have to port.

oh, didn't see that. well i won't quite apologize for making this thread if it helps lead to more votes for the HTC ONE.
i'm actually contemplating trading my HTC ONE for a S4 because they have a more functional version of MIUI up and running.

it would be official for the international version of the phone.
we have the sprint variant.
the WHOLE WORLD uses GSM.
Sprint uses CDMA.
so we would have to port the official one to work with our radios.

Why won't the DEV support Verizon HTC ONE.

Because DEVs in Verizon HTC ONE forum support the phone. DUH! lol! And its a question for DEV's in the HTC ONE forum if they so choose to answer. Not a complaint..
I don't get why Sprint, ATT, TMO is supported, but not Verizon. I know why it was that way, but I figured by now that would a have changed.
I thought it was a kernel source issue, but after checking HTC DEV, Verizon HTC ONE has a newer kernel source that ATT and SPRINT.
I get that ATT/T-MO and International variants probably have more in common with GSM/LTE bands than Verizon, but then there is SPRINT which is CMDA like Verizon.
Myself and other Verizon users would love the flexibility that others enjoy. Just say!
With that said. Thanks to these guys @andybones, @buckmarble, @brymaster5000, @Flyhalf205, @hawknest, @newtoroot, @santod040, @Zarboz and others for not forgetting us on Verizon.

Don't forget @buckmarble :highfive:
Better question: Why not just switch to AT&T and enjoy the freedom that most of the world does? I left Verizon in 2007 because of the awful UI that they ran on EVERY PHONE. Using a RAZR was no different than using some ****ty Pantech, I and some others were able to flash our way out of it, but it required for more tricks and tools. Even then, it sucked by comparison,
I have a friend with a Verizon HTC One. If I could flash the Developer Edition ROM and make it work, I'd have done it the moment he bought it. I don't use custom ROMs. So while he's trapped with Android 4.2, I'm sailing with 4.4 already. He'll be lucky to get it by February. By then, I'm sure I'll be even farther ahead.
