is there a way to flash the developer edition software onto the tmobile htc one? and it just update through htc? jst curious i tried to stay from rooting but i seriously doubt tmobile is going to update my phone in a timely manner so i gave up .
I actually just did this today but I converted my AT&T instead of a t mobile to the dev edition

everything works? lte ? hspa+? i just want stock in not really in to customization until the phone gets boring you know? and if so where can i find the rom you used? in the forum i dont see stock stuff like when i had my gnex and nex4 ..everything seems modified in some way and i just want stock maybe with root preinstalled which is why i was looking at the 4.3 dev edition because i saw people talking about htc posted the entire thing up for grabs ..i just dont want to lose functionality i want it to be the same phone just software has been updated with all of htc's improvements you know?

Hi
I have been away from HTC with my last two phones. Do folks find that HTCDEV unlock provides all that is needed or will devs still be trying to S-Off the One?

S-off will need to be figured out by developers. HTC's unlock only unlocks the bootloader and maintains S-On.

I'll tell you straight forward.
Nope, not from htc

Not from HTC. Not even the developer edition of this device will have it. You need to rely on devs for that. The HTC one s got S-off 7-8 months after its release. HTC devices are known to have a rather lack luster developer basis.

The HTC evo 4g lte go s off in a month or so after release. The rest of the one x series took longer since it was more difficult to s off a device without sd support; however, one x did eventually get s off as well as the DNA (a few months after release). with that said, those developers now know how to approach a Qualcomm device without external sd support. So its just a matter of time. Give it about a month or so after the device has released in the major markets.

I just wanted to add that with the hboot 1.12, the first one when htc evo lte came out, we can flash any kernel or rom just being htc dev unlocked only. We did s-off just future prove the device. I am sure there are some people still now on hboot 1.12 who flash roms and kernels, and aren't s-off.

Not really a fact of "it took nine months" or whatever. When the exploit/method was discovered by the geniuses behind it, it was used on nearly all the HTC devices of the time that are similar: One X S4, One S, DNA, etc
Its just a matter of developing the exploit and being able to use it properly in the public. Although I love having S-off on my phone now, I am prepared to wait a bit before unlocking my bootloader/performing s-off
Another thing to note is that according to jcase's tweet a month or so ago the One is CID write protected :/

What does that mean in relation to custom ROM and kernels development?
the s4 have the same processor, soo problably we will get this device s-off, plus its a qualquom processor, its more easy then tegra processor
i looked at the video for s-off for the htc one x, one s, Dna... etc & they require SuperCid, (unless there's other ways that don't need it). I'm assuming Cid being write protected means 'impossible' for superCid on the One?

Nothing unless some devs decide to boycot because of the bootloader unlock not being very unlocky
It will be much harder with s-on to update firmware and stuff though, as well has having to flash boot.img manually with every rom/kernel install (unless there is dumblock)
This would be an absolute pain with kernels packaged as a zimage (there are repackers available for the HOX but still)
As much as I want a One every time I read a review, I am in no rush to upgrade from my S-On One X this time around until this is done, the amount of **** I have to do just to update a ROM that is updated daily is a complete pain.

Actually xhausx has a script to incorporate into updater-script thaf can flash the boot.img automatically for you on ROM install. No need for seperate flash anymore.

Yes blend! Look here
I said never again after the HTC One X debacle and I meant it - but not so much for the inconvenience, for me its the principle.
I shall wait to see how it pans out - but without s-off I'm gonna try the S4 I think. Been loyal to HTC a long time, but they've changed and maybe its time for a change for me.
That said hopefully this will be resolved quickly with the Qualcom chipset.
Thinking the same, but I won't buy an S4.
I will stick with my perfectly capable One X.

Ha. Very funny.
I did love my Q1Ultra once. A lot has changed in the arena since then. Does that count?
And maybe if there was more devving on the Asus Padfone2?
Staying on topic though. Very hopeful someone will s-off this qualcom device so we can all play nicely again on a flag ship HTC.
Is this the phone to get? Not a fan of samsung except for the GOOGLE phones.. I have a iPhone ATM, I am a themer, and flash roms like they are going out of style. I am a huge MIUI fan, hence the iPhone. I am starting to rebrowse XDA for info regarding rom Development, considering the phone is pretty new, its taking off well?
Any input would be appreciated.
This phone is amazing and has tons of support. It has an amazing stock HTC interface and if that's not good enough for you, they're releasing a Google Edition version of this phone which means official AOSP support. Throwing MIUI on top of that would be childs play

Google edition sounds like a plan! once the kernal drops for that phone, then the sprint variant should get it too correct? Im in if thats the case. With my Phone upgrade i can get this phone for $30, not looking to pay $500 for the Google edition.
If you want to be able to show off anything except aesthetics (stats, software gimmicks, etc.), you'll probably wanna go with the S4. The One's features generally take daily use to appreciate.
There have been reports of HTC offering the Google edition software to early supporters. That and developers will definitely be able to port stock aosp from the Google edition to our phones. The hardware is almost identical!

Why not get the dev edition of the HTC one it was cheaper than the ones on contract last time I check and it had more storage

Do you guy's really think they're gonna release a Nexus Experience HTC One for Sprint? I sure don't, since they said it was for AT&T and T-Mobile only. Plus, I also don't think they're gonna release a stock AOSP Rom for this phone either. Your best bet for AOSP on the Sprint version, is gonna be CM10.1 or Carbon.
welcome back
I've been an apple geek for 20+ years, yes they had them back then...
And have really liked almost every device they've made with the exception of the iPhone. Themed/hacked and jb still doesn't compere to a rooted Android
I hope you come back.
Ever since the order page came up a few days ago for the HTC One Google Edition, I've been lurking the threads, watching the videos and reading the reviews.
The general consensus I'm getting is that the Google Edition will not push out updates immediately like the Nexus devices.
Now I'm in somewhat of a dilemma because I'm not sure if I should keep my order with Google Play or to cancel and order an HTC One Developer's Edition.
The GE Edition is $640+ after taxes and free shipping on GP.
The Dev Edition is $654 after shipping, with no taxes.
As we all know the GE Edition is 32GB and the Dev Edition is 64GB.
So with all that said, is the decision as easy as saying that the Dev Edition is 14 bucks more and has twice the space? I have no issues with custom roms but honestly I value stability over anything and despite some shortcomings that some people may find in the pure stock version, I actually don't mind it. When I had my N4 I was happy with stock and using custom loaders to change the look and feel.
Now the topic of the GE version rom being available for the other phones has come up a lot in the last few days and many people are speculating that it will be very easy to do so forth.
Sorry if I'm sounding like a newb here, but is there any benefits right now to getting the GE over the DE edition? What would be the overall best choice for me as someone who doesn't mind stock android? Is there anyone out there who would choose the GE instead of the DE version and if so why?
Thanks for all the help guys!
Get a dev edition because you can run a GE Rom on it and the 64 GB storage.
BTW where did you get those prices. It should be like double that price lol.

HAHA Fixed!! Thanks for catching that! Iono why my brain was thinking 6 but typed 3.. ugh lol
I don't know how the Google edition works with the ability to flash a sense Rom but I like the option to choose personally, and I know with the dev edition you can flash stock android. If I was you I'd go with the dev edition. If you want some fancy special edition just for bragging rights, then get that but if you want functionality and the option to pick what you like get the dev.

I too have considered this upgrade from my Nexus 4. But if I remember correctly the IR port does not work in the Google Play version, and is working fine in the dev version.
where is the dev version available?
People. The hardware on the Dev and GPe phones are the exact same. Just the ROM, bootloader and recoveries are different. We already have the GPe bootloader and recovery, and I think we even have GPe based ROMs. Eventually, you will be able to fully convert the DEV, INTL, ATT and TMO Ones to GPe and vice versa. Get the Dev edition.
The HTC One Developer Edition got KitKat almost two months ago, and we've seen plenty of Sense roms released with KitKat as a result. However, is the official update that's supposedly coming out this month for regular non-developer edition phones going to be any different?
If not, why is there a delay at all?

Nope, it isn't gonna be any different. Its just taking time because of carrier modifications and many intermediate testing and approval stages. Read the HTC update chart that had come up on the xda portal a few weeks ago.

@thedancingbear
this is mostly right .. but AT&T have never followed the same path and their RUU and updates often include different radio's different hboot different touchscreen drivers and are better suited to AT&T US phones
(more fine tuned if you will). The basic kitkat will be the same but that's about it.

Don't most carriers have their own radios? I think the hboot will be the same across the ATT & Dev editions. Both are receiving the same update (4.06.1540.2) and have identical hardware.

The Developer Edition has already been updated 2 times
(their at .1540.3 now) and The carrier updates are not the same as the developer edition ..different radio / different build.prop / different drivers
Same basic kitkat features .. yes

This may be a dumb question and i feel like a complete noob asking it but........... .....
I bought a Nexus 6 from Moto and had it activated on VZW before VZW
had it as a phone (which may not matter).
I want to ROM my phone, and i am use to seeing a separate thread
for each Networks' phone (att, vzw, tmo ...etc)
So essentially what do i need to know about ROMing
the nexus 6 activated on VZW?
(Also i know I'm late to the ROMing game on this phone
but i guess its better late than never)
Thanks!
All nexus 6s are the same. You can flash any rom your heart desires
I do believe that some carriers have made specific ROMs for the N6 because of small tailor made features, T-Mobile for example baked on so that nexus 6 phones on their network could turn on Wi-Fi Calling

That's up to what you want in a rom. Look at the features of each one and decide for yourself on what looks like you would want.
