I see a lot of different version of the HTC ONE, and by a "mistake?" they are all blended in the same sub-forum here at XDA, really confusing...
Some of the ONE models are allready on official android 4.4 apparently...?!?
I don´t see anything on what to expect for us with the dual sim version of the phone thoug...
Do any of you have any information about any kitkat updates for the dual sim phone ?

Hello all,
This question prompted by the latest AOKP build, which got me thinking about finally flashing a custom ROM. I've got the HTC One, China Unicom version (802w), with the dual SIM card. I'd like to keep using two SIMs, if possible, but there's not much information over in the support thread on whether or not dual SIMs are supported. If anyone knows (or is willing to ask for me - not enough posts to post there), I'd appreciate it :good:
Not sure if necessary, but here's more info: unlocked bootloader, but haven't flashed anything custom onto it (also, S-ON still, etc. etc.). Have installed GApps using the HTC app for doing that. Successfully grabbed the OTA update from a couple weeks ago, and am currently running Android 4.2.2. Let me know if any more information is needed.
Thanks in advance!
Hello,
I'm thinking of buying the dual sim version once it's available in my country, but need some advice:
The most important thing to me is the ability to unlock the bootloader and install the newest stock (Google Play) and Cyanogen ROMs, as well as any other kernels and ROMs for One I may like. What concerns me about the dual sim version is that I won't be able to do that, because of the potential different drivers or software modifications needed for the dual sim functionality.
So, can you help me out? Do you know anything about unlocking the bootloader of this device? Do custom kernels and ROMs for the regular One work as expected on the dual sim version?

yes you're right bro ... first of all if you want to unlock the bootloader then its so simple just follow : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2273570
also, there is very limited or i can say "No" support for the dual sim version of m7 ... didnt find any custom kernel and there a few custom rom only ...
so my advice is to better go or m7 single sim or look out some other device ...
Thanks for your answer! I was afraid of that, I really like the dual sim and sdcard support.
Any idea if regular One ROMs work at all (mainly the Google Play ROM)? For example if they work fine with sim 1, but just don't recognize sim 2 and/or sdcard? They would still be usable that way...
And what about Cyanogen mod? It's my impression that it's the best one out there, and it's adaptable, so there might be hope...
in china jifeng forum，there r many roms out there for the dual sim card version htc one，aka 802w，one thing i know is that the kernel code has not been releashed， so some functionalities on 802w rom still can be realized e.g. swipe the logo or double tap the awake the phone. that is all i konw

That helps a little, but I couldn't find the forum you mentioned. Do you have a link, so I could take a look?
BTW, seeing that you have 802w, how's the battery life?

Thanks! In the end I decided to go with the regular one, and got it a couple of days ago.
Thanks anyway, your answers were helpful, I just got tired of waiting for the dual sim version, it was supposed to arrive at the end of september, but it's still not here...
I would like to revisit the question about running a Custom Rom for the regular HTC One on the Dual SIM version.
Has someone tried this?
My favorite Rom is PACman. It is available for a pretty big amount of devices, including the regular HTC One. I would love to hear this is running on the Dual SIM version.
I would get the Dual SIM version only because of the microSD card slot. Think of this what you want, but though the point for me concerning Custom Roms is, that it wouldn't be a problem to not being able to run a second SIM card, but I want be able to use a microSD card.
I would be very pleased if someone owning the HTC One Dual SIM could try out running PACman on it.

Buy a single sim, dual sim has no good development going on. Get a single sim International or Developer Edition, you won't regret it
any idea for dual sim version ?
I still have evo 3d and bought One few weeks ago. On evo I had only one update and on One 3 updates in few days and waiting for Kit kat in January. And development comunity for One with sense is great, so I would recomend any single SIM version. Dual SIM is not nearly as supported as single SIM
op, go for 802w, wont regret it, also are some rom's aviabile
Hi,
I just bought HTC ONE Dual Sim. I didn't know that you cannot update the software prior to buying it.
I stuck with it. Is there a way to update the phone. I just an ordinary girl. I don't really understand the technical part.
Is there a video how to do it? Is there hope on updating my phone to 4.2.2?
Thanks
Olive

Your phone will get updated OTA to 4.2.2 . Just check for updates ( or wait for awhile. You will get a notification about a system update)
There no software update menu in the phone. So I cannot check it. What do you mean by OTA updates? Will it automatically pop up in the future that there is an update?

Well. ....if you actually read through both the "original android development" and "android development" forums you would find what you're looking for. The specific device support should be detailed in the first few posts.
For kernel, take a look a my SkyHigh kernel which supports dual SIM variants.
Cant say about ROM, as only use stock, mainly because I'm happy with it and easier to debug kernel rather than what could be the ROM.
Best of luck with the reading
Edit: before flashing, you may need to unlock your bootloader first (maybe crom app or something) and enable OEM unlock in developer settings.
