Now I used an all-in-one toolkit to flash stuff like i knew what i was doing 2 weeks ago, now that i have read like 400 forum posts, I know now that im pretty much screwed as my phone is not vastly supported anywhere on the inter-webs. Basically (i think) i flashed GSM stuff onto my phone, Ive gone through every single post i could find and have tried to reverse this thing for a while, im basically calling it a hard brick cause I am lost, When i boot it shows (this build is for development purposes only....blahblah... red txt with HTC logo, I CAN get into fastboot/hboot menus, fastboot commands work fine, I just really screwed something up good, anyone have any idea or way to fix this POS? At this point I could care less if my carrier works, Just want the damn thing to boot. Thank You in advance if you can help me at all.
(Not sure if this is right spot to post this, but due to less than 10 posts Im kinda SOL)

Check this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1335368 also you could request an ruu from 'football' the op of that thread, he is the guy that supplies all the leaked firmwares/ruu for all of the HTC devices.
I think that's your best chance mate.

All of those are for the gsm desire c, which is what caused your problem to start with.
Don't flash any rom/ruu for gsm desire c (golfu). message football and ask if he can supply an ruu for the cdma version golfc, it may be worth offering a donation.

ROMs ?

Are people working on ROMs for this phone? I only ask because I make the plunge Friday and I recently realized how amazing this phone is. I have tiny hands.. so... I'm souped. But I'm not sure if it will get 4.2.2, or 4.3 or 5.0 or whatever next Android version comes out. And also, I love what Paranoid Android has been putting out. Just wondering if things like that are happening behind the scenes. Didn't see any other threads or posts about it.

I would assume that once HTC releases the kernel source code, this phone will receive similar love as many other photos do. I will personally do my best to ensure that CyanogenMod becomes available for it if no one else steps up to take care of it. The fact that it ships with stock Android can only make that task easier.

Having a RUU available in case something goes haywire definitely helps too. A lot of people don't want to change the firmware dramatically just yet if they don't have the ability to roll it back to factory.

This is true. I'm gonna guess the RUU should be released soon? The One's RUU was just released This makes my decision a little bit more difficult but in the best way cause now I could get this phone and not be too upset since it should get upgraded at this rate. Much love guys. Thanks. Been itching for an android device with great battery that fits in my hand.

Wouldn't a nandroid backup be more than enough to allow users to roll back to stock if they choose to? Or are you talking about something more than that?

A RUU would completely revert everything back to stock -- bootloader, recovery, system, radio, etc.

i played with one of these when i got my One
we could probably get a sense 4+ or sense 5 port going on it
i wish i had one to screw with

To root or not

Right seems like a silly post at first but here me out. First off Im new to HTC but not to rooting I've had the a load of rooted phone and tablets. My concern is loosing warranty when unlocking with HTC dev this has never been a problem on my previous devices. What are your thoughts on this matter?

Root but you will lose warranty to be honest if your only rooting for better performance than theirs no point as the performance of the One is brilliant.

I want to root to allow me to fully theme my device. I create a lot of themes most of which need root and also would like to run a non sense ROM whenever stable releases come out

Root it. I had no problem taking my rooted phone into at&t to get it replaced/fixed. However, I was turned off by rooting as my first rooted phone was the samsung galaxy. Thing sucked. Got the HTC Vivid, One X, One X+ (all unrooted, no real reason to), then got the One and rooted it. Getting rid of all of at&t's and HTC's bloatware were the main reasons.

only reason why i rooted is to get rid of all that nasty att bloat, and to have all ads removed, the phone stock is amazing.

Just do it

DON'T Root if you don't feel comfortable losing your warranty.

You don't lose your warranty with rooting!

If you really wanna do some modifications on your One, just root it and take care.

Root it, there's never been problems with me getting phones repaired when rooted, just make sure you remove the custom ROM

Root 4 ever ...
When i get new phone i say i will not rooted but afther a while (max 2 days) the phone is rooted with custom rom

This is maybe my first device that I haven't rooted from day one of ownership. Currently running it unrooted a week since I got it and I am planning to keep it this way for quite a while.
Ads are pretty annoying in some apps but this is not a reason to root it.

I'm not rooting, at least not anytime soon. I rooted my One X+, which also required unlocking the bootloader. A couple of months later, my display stopped working consistently, but HTC refused my warranty (despite what the earlier post suggests) on the grounds of unauthorized software or something like that. On the bright side, I have the One now.

I rooted to get batt% and the ability to uninstall apps i dont use wich leads to better battery life.
I've exchanged 3 one's while being unlocked thrue htc dev.
If theres a problem flash a stock ruu and recovery and see if the problem persists.
If so the device is running there software so its a fault of the device, when the device is looking like new(no scratches or dents or whatever) they will fix it:thumbup:

Which route did you take to get the percentage? I'm thinking of removing the stock battery indicator altogether and relying on go power master

Last year I rooted my Sprint HTC LTE and lost the ability to watch live TV with the Time Warner app, does anyone know if this will still be the case with the HTC One?

The phone is fast I felt the same way..I rooted it because I hate the 3 dots and to get camera update.. The ability to flash latest ota was reason enough for me.I have kept my rom stock much faster imo and the battery life is good...gunna flash a new update later tonight

rooting the ONE is it worth it...or should i

any one regret rooting the one ? i had a htc sensation rooted but alll the roms seem to have some thing that did not work...the one seems to be fine the way it is so before i root it i wanted some option ..... do the the htc one also have roms with broken parts of it ?
should i just wait on the updates ?

Really depends on how you use your device and how you feel about the stock setup. I didn't like having all the bloatware that AT&T packed on and really wanted to play around more under the hood, but obviously that is not for everyone and comes with all of the standard risks.
I'm running the latest ViperOne ROM and really love the options that can be set and tweaked. So many ROM options available for the device the choices are almost endless.

You haven't tried Trickdroid 9.0. Amazing rom that's not missing anything! insane battery life also

does the update also add alot of features ?

I've rooted every android phone I've had and flashed numerous roms on each one but this is the first device that I've left completely stock. I don't even have an unlocked bootloader. The phone is just fine the way it is, I will not be rooting or unlocking the bootloader on this phone anytime soon. Myself and many other users used to root our phones and flash custom roms because android phones used to be incredibly laggy and we always wanted better performance. Overclocking our processors was the norm but now android has matured so much and devices are ridiculously powerful now there is just no need to change them. Even if we were to still overclock our devices you wouldn't see a change in performance.
It's completely up to you though.

Personally, I think rooting is worth it just for the ad blocking it allows; i.e. editing the hosts file. Running a custom rom, being able to backup with titanium and nandroids, and changing radios is just gravy. And if you've ever had a device go south without a custom recovery already on it it's incredibly difficult to fix.

The wife bought a refurb Acer tablet - no warranty (I think it was thirty days.) Was ridiculous to restore. I learned my lesson, well! And I'd rather be able to fix it myself than be without while I wait for someone else to. To each their own...

yeah if this was a slow phone or laggy maybe i would,but a have read a few tread with custom roms and some are having trouble with them,think i'll wait on update....although the 4.2.2 update seems to not be coming to t-mobile,all i got so far was a small update.

I have only had the One for a few weeks, but I rooted it and flashed CM10.1 before I even put my SIM in it. Definitely worth it. No reason to deal with carrier restrictions.

t mobile told me there is no 4.2.2 update for the htc one......HTC said the same thing,so now im wondering how come people are saying there receiving this update..
who's lying

There will be no 4.2.2 update from tmobile, my guess is they are gonna skip that and go straight to 4.3 plus they said it on the internet on the news that htc said it themselves and that there would be no customer benefit for an update like 4.2.2 so they said they were gonna skip it and bring up 4.3.
The update started along the lines of outside international countries that aren't big market carriers and then it rolled on slowly...so no one's lying you just have to do some research on the internet but that 4.2.2 update never got to the US thats why it was never rolled out to large carriers to their customers..
Hopefully this gave you some insight on things that are currently happening.

It had to have been those in the UK or in some parts of the world because it started from one small part of the world, I mean those that are not on carriers, and it did end up in parts of the UK but it never got to the US and if people who are in the US saying they got the update they changed their CID to a region that had the update rolling out so really no one on this side of the US has that software except verizon because they shipped those one models with the current software, and the GPE ones got an update first because well those aren't sold by carrier they are sold by htc themselves on their website. So yes people have said that they receive it but unless there is proof I wouldn't go off of their word, they more than likely did something to their phone to get that software, they might have a custom rom on their phone or done something to get it officially but here in the us there is no word of 4.2.2 ever coming to their customers....of course except verizon....
Well hopefully this helps...if you have any other questions or concerns please do let us know as we want to help you out

Not always. Running a stock 4.2.2 Rom or something without major modifications will be smooth for a long time. I ran Mike's stock build rooted for almost a month with no issues at all.
It all depends on what you want from it. If you want all the themes and icon changes and modify this and that, you will have issues. But if you JUST want the newest version out there then I would say go ahead and run a stock build, get it odexed (not deodexed) and you will have buttery smoothness

Hi, I am looking for ROM with better battery life than Stock.
My average battery drain about 1% for about 4-5 minutes while using Internet via WIFI for browsing using JB's 4.2.2 default browser, chatting via WhatsApp, reading emails and using Blink Feed.
How about using this ROM?
Thanks.

My main reason FOR rooting, was to theme the phone red. I have the HTC one Red edition. And just love red. I also hate blink feed. Ive flashed Venom rom, and desensed it. Battery life is amazing, I cant find anything that don't work, well nothing I need to use anyway. Plus they have there own red theme, and with the help of a few icon designes from Seriously Crazy. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2091654 This is what ive come up with.
So worth rotting for me, if only for the theming, and gtting rid of blink feed.

[Q] Switching phones

Hello xda,
I have a Galaxy S i9000, have had it for 2 years and played around with roms and modding; I am very familiar with this kind of stuff.
I am switching to a new phone soon, and it will definitely be an HTC phone, either a One or a One M8.
I originally thought of getting the 2013 One to save some money, but I was wondering if the performance is good on custom roms like cm11, pa 4.2 etc. (sorry if it is a really obvious question to you ppl, I have a phone with a single core 1ghz processor and cm11 is sooo laggy)
Another question, if i get the HTC one 2013, I will definitely get S Off with revone on it. can anyone tell me if there is a command to revert it back to S On after getting S off?
Cheers and thanks,
George
Edit: Please don't say anything about my Nexus 5, it is my 'hacking' device, where I do random $%#@ to it. I dont use it for daily use, only for rom testing etc etc. I know its weird, but I want an HTC for my daily driver

Okay I am not sure that htc one can be reverted to s-on back but i saw somewhere that there are modded bootloaders and they read s-on and locked even if you are s-off and have a unlocked bootloader.
