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.

[Q] Who would like to see a CDMA ONLY htc one forum?

I am curious who would like to see a US ONLY CDMA ONLY htc one forum or perhaps sub-forum? I believe it would help organize and separate the US device from the International ones for clarity and ease of forum use.

[Q] Who would like to see a US ONLY htc one forum?
I would also agree if the differences are that much of a problem. Ill be getting one from AT&T as a upgrade and if there is significant differences between unlocking and other types of things I don't want to be confused and asking if something works on US version of phone or not.

Thanks for your feedback. It's going to get really cluttered in this forum if they don't seperate stuff as the US launch is imminent.
Re: [Q] Who would like to see a US ONLY htc one forum?
They wouldn't separate the international and us one x+ even tho the ROMs were incompatible so I doubt this one will be separated

There are loads of other phones that don't have separate forums to distinguish different regions and frequencies....don't recall it being a problem before. ROM developers sorted things out just fine. If this is just because people don't want to have to sort through the different international release dates then that is a bit short sited thinking no?

We had issues in the past in the evo 3d forums where the cdma roms/themes/mods did not work on the gsm version and vice versa. I think it would at least be good to have seperate subforums for US/Carriers so that people dont flash gsm radios by mistake on their cdma versions and brick their phones. If the international version is the same as US T-Mobile and ATT then that can be one subforum with the other being for Verizon (if verizon gets its) and Sprint. So maybe a GSM vs CDMA subforums could work.

Excellent point.
Where do you have the information from that there will be a CDMA version of this phone? Can you link one, please?
Sprint is cdma only, so is Verizon of they get one.

I don't know when its coming out. I've read next week or may something... link to an article http://goo.gl/2lToZ
I'd suggest waiting till more information about the phone is available. If it is a redesign like the butterfly and DNA then a separate form. Else, i'd vote for a sub forum. Whatever makes most people happy.
I don't care how you do it but it needs to be done, I'm tired of wading through the international topics/discussion just to find the few US relevant info.
Yeah, should definitely happen.
If necessary, you can bring up the forums that have been split to the site managers, like the 2 s3 forums for the different carriers as well as the international s3 being separated from the carrier specific one
You could tell them that its to prevent bricks from flashing roms, which depending on how its set up will most likely be an issue anyway
Basically i agree, +1 on this
I'm all for a subforum! Maybe not necessarily a separate forum, since I think the majority of "discussion" will be pretty unified, as the device itself is similar when not focusing on radios in specific.
Something like this will probably happen in the future. I've seen it for the majority of other devices, at least.

Right on Sprint's website.
Sprint is a US carrier that ONLY operates on CDMA. Like the EVO 3D, it was EXTREMELY nice to have GSM & CDMA forums separate as flashing stuff on the wrong hardware could brick it in a second.
While having a separate CDMA section might be ok (depending on if the roms are in fact incompatible), I think the AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus & international variants should share the same section.

Right to 4.3 :)

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?

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!

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.

Htc m8 general

Please excuse my ignorance, but what is that section all about?
I see Venom Rom and custom kernels. I see different sections for different carriers already, so what is that one for?
Is that section for ALL carriers?
Pretty much what it says. It's a general forum, mostly for the international version and there's some scattered in there for U.S. carriers but pretty much just gsm variants. There are some mods said to work on all variants. Some are clearly broken down and labeled in the OP, but some you gotta search and read every post to see if anyone asked if it'll work on Sprint (or other) and see if there's an answer. I keep going thru it myself getting itchy to flash something. I came from the evo LTE and got into this whole root thing 8 months after that phones release so there was already plenty of development going on. This is my fist phone seeing it from the beginning, and with a model on every carrier. The evo was specific to Sprint so all development was just for that phone, made it much simpler lol.

What makes it hard to dev for Sprint?

First let me start by saying i am NOT complaining.....just curious.
This is NOT a slam against any of the devs in this community.
Nor is this an insult to the AMAZING ROMS that we DO have available here in the Sprint forums.
Why are the majority of the ROMS developed in the "generic" HTC One forums for every carrier BUT Sprint?
It seems every time i look over there i see something cool that i might like to test out and when i search *Sprint* the results come back that we are not supported.
Im just curious why many of the "Multi carrier ROMS" work on every other carrier with the exception of ours?
I believe it is the difference between CDMA and GSM networks...
Verizon seems to get love from the developers over there?
IDK, its just weird.
Or maybe, people just don't like Sprint.
For whatever reason, people like to pay for data.
I realize Sprint hasn't been the leader as far as 4G is concerned, but I think that's why you don't see as much development for Sprint.
