My HTC One Dual Sim (802w) suddenly slipped out of my hands during my morning workout and I cracked my screen. Since I like my phone too much I can not replace the entire phone, so I'm thinking of replacing the screen itself, since only screen has been broken and everything else works just fine (Every touch and every swipe works as is should be)
So, since I have a Dual Sim version 802w I'm wondering whether the original One's (HTC One M7 NON DUAL SIM) screen is identical to the DUAL SIM one?
I got in touch with the Russian HTC Support but they did not tell me whether the screens are identical or not. All they told me, was to take my phone to my neighbour country for them to fix it.
Does anyone have any experience with the broken glass of 802w? Would very much appreciate any response ...
its not the same bro. i ordered for HTC one 801. apparently its not the same.
try this one.

Hi guys,
I had a Galaxy S3 that died (suddent death problem) and I don't want another samsung device. I really liked the One and I need some help choosing the right one.
I liked the Black version a lot and I would like to get one. AT&T uses the same bands that we have here in Brazil and could work here fine. But I would also have to sim unlock it and to unlock the bootloader (for root acess). Additionally, I don't know that are the differences (hardware and software wise) from the AT&T version and the direct HTC version.
Since I will be using her ein Brazil, with no warrant, I will install a custom ROM.
The other option would be ordering the Silver HTC version direclty from HTC Shop online. I will save on tax (I think that HTC doesn't charge tax to ship the phone to California) will get a sim unlocked phone and it will be easier to boot unlock it.
So what do you guys suggest?
BTW: Do you know if I can buy the One AT&T version, in a store without a US address (can be AT&T store or Best Buy)? Of course I'll be buy it with no plan, but I don't know if AT&T would sell it for someone that doesn't have a US address.
Thanks
PS: Do you know if AT&T sells one month pre-paid voice and data plan? Instead of using my own Brazilian number, and paying for international roamming I want to get a one month voice and data plan to use while on my vacation.
Not too sure about the AT&T ones and the bands that are used in Brazil, but I can confirm that black units chip quite easily. There's lots of reports of the colour coming off after some use. My gf's black HTC One already has some parts at the top chip off revealing the silver underneath after less than 2 weeks use, all the while being carried in a leather pouch.

Yeah.. All my previous phones were AT&T version (except for the S3 - I got the International Version) and they all worked fine here. So the AT&T version is second only to the HTC International version.
Didn't know about the chip problem. I always use Skinomi screen and body protector, but even the chip could be a problem in the future.
And how about the Camera glass breaking problem? Does anyone knows if the new units still suffering from this issue?

I haven't actually seen a broken camera lens, and have not seen any reports of it on any local forums as well (we have a thread for HTC One that is like 3000 pages long now lol). Could be very isolated issues
And do you have any information about Sim Unlock and Bootloader unlock for the AT&T version?

I had an order in with LetsTalk shipping to CA, and they did charge sales tax.
Hi all,
I love to tinker and have been a regular on these forums since the early days of smartphones (long before android and ios)....suffice it to say I love to tinker with my tech.
Ok so here is the problem... After months of biding my time it looks like its time to get an HTC One.....and on research I've discovered my best option price wise was actually import it....and that the versions from Japan (Made in taiwan), China, and ?india? have Dual Sims, whereas those from HK, like those I could buy here in the shops in the UK take only one SIM.
Now it would seem a no-brainer that I should go for the dual sim option especially as I have two separate sims - one for work and one for play.
HOWEVER, I will want to root my phone immediately upon getting it and will DEFINATELY want to install custom firmwares in the near future.....
And so the question....never having owned a dual sim phone in the past.....Will these phones take the same firmware and then a little setting up with custom apps? Or will I need completely different custom firmwares? and if so is the CFW cooking scene as good for the dual sim version? (also I only read English and Spanish so I'm a little worried that I may not be able to read the pages where any dual sim firmwares might be posted).....
This would be a complete deal-breaker for me and I'd be forced to go with the single-sim option.
I've searched and cannot locate a clear answer to this question! All help much appreciated!!!
I have Dual Sim 802d version and its rock solid and all but the only problem I saw is non-availability of RUUs for the device (the Chinese ones caused radio problems for some fellow users with no signal and stuff) nor are their much custom roms for my device. After S-OFF I couldn't even flash Google Play Edition RUU as it bricked the device. Do a bit of research by browsing some of the threads. IMO if you aren't gonna customize your phone much like unlocking bootloaders, S-OFFing, etc.. HTC One Dual-Sim is a pristine device.
If you want more custom Rom and support don't go for dual sim
Smartphone and dual sim don't mix them battery sucker both ways
You will find your one SIM started problem in future not in network SIM not found like that
I have experienced with HTC desire v dual sim
from HTC One

If you do decide to go with the Dual SIM version getting custom ROM's might become a tricky situation.
Just for your reference for troubles that you may face see this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2626054
If you want to use custom ROM's get the one SIM version, as for your dual SIM's the good thing is HTC One supports hot SIM swap so you can pop the SIM in and out with out having to switch the phone off
Good luck on your decision :good:
Single sim is the way to go!

Thanks for the advice all. Sadly then, as I had feared, my urge to tinker precludes my going for the dual SIM model!
A new cfw every 4 months or so is what stops me constantly wanting a new phone!

In that case...
You may also want to hold back on the purchase as HTC may rls a M8 Daul SIM version and I'm guessing if you buy the M7 at that time you're bound to get a better deal ?

Tempting - have been waiting for the price to drop ever since release and it just hasn't done it mind you! That said I can import it from as little as £200!!
Hi!
It's now a couple of days ago I'm having problems with my HTC Butterfly S (901s).
All the sim cards I put in my phone are not recognised.
After checking it seems that there is a problem with my Sim Card Reader.
HTC doesn't know/provide support for my phone model here in Switzerland. So I have to send it to USA or Tawain to get it repaired.
And my warranty is no more valid (rooted phone and opened to check what happened). I don't want to imagine the repair costs.
I also need a rear camera lens, and the rear camera itself.
Does anybody know where I can find and order these parts to repair it by myself
(for the sim card reader I need the complete board)
Thanks for your help and reply.
i have replacement parts for htc butterfly s 901s
i have replacement parts for htc butterfly s 901s
While taking apart my m7 the volume buttons broke off. after looking for a replacement daughter board, I realized the gsm version of the phone has a different one, however the sprint version of the phone has an identical daughter board. Will this work in the Verizon phone?
Verizon parts are kinda scarce unfortunately so knowing either way would help greatly
If anyone is wondering, the answer is yes the antenna/flex/daughter board from a sprint m7 will work in the Verizon m7. The boards are the same with the addition of one extra plug for the blue coaxial cable. The extra plug remains unused though
I picked one of these up at nearly no cost bad screen
Before I put a screen in can Verizon users confirm its gsm unlocked. It works on Verizon based some cards but every time I put a cricket or other sim in. I get a sim card not readable.
I don't want to buy a screen if other hard ware issues first. I'll fix it myself. I guess I should just tear into it and see.
