[Q] Lolipop for Mini2?? - HTC One Mini 2

I just contacted the HTC Support and they told me that only One M8 and One M7 will get Lolipop. So i thought mini and mini 2 will get it, too.
Does someone know something about it?? Or was the support right and we will not get Android 5.x?

Yes the mini 2 will get android 5.0 for sure i get information feom Labtoofer.
But it will come very late this year maybe may or june.
And not htc eye experience for our device !!!

So we won't get the most usefull features, such as Face Tracking, but this silly Face Fusion.

Yes our only hope is a kernel ported from desire 816.. the most close to htc one mini 2 . . But we don't have kernel developpers

I think if we get Android 5 our biggest problem is how to get root. I readed that it is more difficult to get root on Android 5, and after here are not so many developers, i'm not sure we'll get our phones on the latest Software rooted

Don't see hows is that a problem. if you install superuser before, the update wont remove it. Also im testing Android L in nexus 7 and root works fine.

I don't think it will be a problem .
My only desire is get a kernel developpers to enable the feature of Eye camera foe our device

My only wish is to get root without htc-dev

As far as I know, I think an app called sunshine is able to put device into S-off, but it costs.
EDIT just tested sunshine and its NOT working

CALLING ALL DEVS! S-OFF on HTC SALSA

I don't know how many DEVs are in the salsa forum, i don't lurk around myself but i did notice that the SALSA still doesn't have a software S-OFF solution.
Maybe you should start something like
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1374926
And get the moderators involved?
i can create a batch file to create your gold cards for the salsa but no longer have the salsa sorry
honestly we need help to root and s off salsa without the clip .....
Hey Salsa owners! I'm from the Wildfire S forum. If there are any devs working on a software S-OFF like us, we would like to co-operate with you guys. Seeing that the Salsa has almost the same specs as the Wildfire S, why not work together to get it done faster? Also, we need someone with embedding skills. Hope we get a positive reply from you guys!
im still currently running the Salsa on the chinese rom i got, so far ive expanded it a little furhter, allowing a ton load more apps and refinded the links2sd alittle so its running nicely.
as davies put we both can get you the batch files to copy etc, and i can get you any other files anyone so requires to do any work...heck id even test lmao.
one thing we really need is the recovery menu to fully function properly, maybe get support from the makers etc.
im still currently roaming the net for a dev or someone to create a rom like other htc users have.
as for the clip, yes its an arse....but me and davies are willing to help anyone in the uk, i wont personally post mine out, but am willling to help other users out.

This should mean all should be able to to root etc cause pretty sure the bootloader been unlocked then it is a big step for the users without a htc clip
i cannot update the hboot section. so the xtc clip will have to do for users that cant access the sections mentioned

old !!
people here are finfing out ways to unlock bootloader without hboot update...**** HTC hasnt released an update yet...HTC= morons !!
I really wish HTC had given the kind of support that Sony and Samsung are providing. Samsung is giving really great hardware and Sony is giving great software support. because of this low memory issue, Salsa has become a secondary phone to me. Using Xperia arc and wondering why I didn't buy it earlier. Unlocking the bootloader from Sony's dev site was a cakewalk. I am still holding out with Salsa and hope one day we can get rid off this S-Off issue. Clearly, there are no hopes of getting ICS on Salsa with this much internal memory even though cheaper Xperia Minis with 1 Ghz processor will be getting a timely update! :-(
Salsa is a complete rip off esp for those majority users who have no clue about rooting.
HTC wake up guys!!!

[Q] how to get cyanogenmod?

Does anyone know of a working cyanogenmod ROM for the vivid? On there site its not on the device list yet
Also on a side note, I have unlocked the bootloader and have perm root. Do I need S-off and if so how do I do it?
Be patient. It was just unlocked and developers are getting to work.
Soon there will be awesomeness coming to the development forum.

seriously? it got unlocked yesterday and you think there would already be a CM build?
the only way to get a working Cyanogenmod right now would be for you to build it, because it doesnt exist.
right now there is no S-Off yet
**EDIT**
dont mean to come off like a **** with this post, but a Cyanogenmod release literally doesnt happen overnight....and they wont support it until someone does the work of getting it built and working on the device.
Well since other carriers were unlocked before yesterday I didn't know if someone had already been working on it...
Also this is my first android so just a heads up for any other newbies when I used the HTC dev site to unlock the phone it resets the phone wiping your data

I chatted w/attn1 yesterday and he said if we'd get him a Vivid, he'd build CM7 for it.
Saw a page calling themselves htcvividforum.com that said they could put the inspire cm7 on the vivid, and pointed to this XDA thread for the Inspire 4G: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1226584. I was wondering if anybody had tried that? I have my doubts, being it's a different phone and all.... maybe I am cross eyed and can't read.
The link to the page that claimed this:
www.htcvividforum.com/custom-roms/bbmod-rom-beta-v1-3-3-cm7-nightly-w-treats/msg71185/?
That site is pretty bogus. It's a clone of http://www.htcinspireforum.com, which, if you go to it, shows identical posts with "vivid" swapped for "inspire". I wouldn't try flashing an ace build to your Vivid.
the ACE and the HOLIDAY are not even close to having the same hardware.....i agree with kxhawkins, the site is bull****
the first clue to the exact link that you posted:

Wow, fast replies, thanks. I wasn't brave enough. I've read your warnings, etc, so I knew something was up!

I didn't even think to check the date on that other site. Good to know for future endeavors.

I'm just saying that this question has been asked tad too many times which suggest u should read what's already in the thread. No offence though. Just a form of goodwill of reminder.

I read that to port a stock rom you must have the source code, which samsung will not release. That's the problem.

it is very difficult (nearly impossible) to make a port like that
but in S3 case the hardware of it is almost the same as N2

Beginning to regret purchasing this phone...

Hey guys
Im sure I'm not the only one who's thinking this but I really wish I purchased the original mini. The reason for this is the only ROM at the moment for this device is CyanogenMod and nobody seems to be making one. Anybody else feel this way?
Also just in case are you involved or do you know anyone making ROMs for this phone?
Thank God that we have at least cm.... I agree with you, and since I have this phone from July, I have been asking for roms since the first day, but this device isn't so popular yet... Vi there are kernels and mods, better than nothing. This forum sometimes is dead for weeks, I wouldn't be surprised that there is no interest in development
You guys really want a custom rom ?

Absolutely.... Preferably lollipop xD
@Will972 is one of the biggest contributors, as he gave us stock roms for every update
A sense rom based on lolipop will be planed soon on 2015 .. we must first have a kernel dev for a possibility to have it earlier but we don't have it.
The only thing we can have is a custom rom with 4.4.2 base
I just miss xposed since there is no idiot rooting guide.
I will make a rom with some stuff like xposed and sense 6.0 toolbox and maybe harman kardon mod instead of boomsound

I know rooting a HTC is not as easy as rooting a Samsung but still it is not hard. The most annoying part is unlocking the bootloader, but even this is easy, but killing time. Once this is done, you need 2 files: twrp recovery

HI indy140
You are not the only one thinking this, read my Statement(s) under Johann A. Sutter in this Forum!
I have made the same experience, for some reason or another it is obviously, that it is not so interesting (or to complicated) for developers to keep them busy with this device!
Good Luck, I'm keeping myself busy, to buy another one, looking before, if there are already valuable possibilities, to be my own Boss about my property.

Marshmallow ROMs?

Hi guys, I recently unlocked the recovery of my phone after the warranty ended.
I really don't feel the need to change the rom because I really like my stock Sense rom, the only rom I would like to try is one with the new Android Marshmallow. Are there any Marshmallow roms already for our phone?
Thanks,
Andrea

This was already asked a few days ago so I'll simply answer the same thing:
Android 6.0 isn't even fully deployed to nexus devices yet, you'll have to be much more patient . We will probably see 6.0 CM or AOSP roms relatively soon. I'm not expecting any 6.0 rom based on HTC Sense UI. CM13 development started about 10 18 days ago btw.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
You can easily find that there isn't any 6.0 roms yet by visiting the One (M7) Android Development and the One (M7) Original Android Development sections of this forum. When there will be one available, its will probably be really easy to find in these sections :good:

As you can search on XDA. Now there are plenty of cm13 unofficial roms for the htc one m7 that bring marshmallow. Sadly I haven't seen any that are based on sense, however, there are many ways to get CM to look like htc-sense if that helps. Do note that the roms have bugs. Yes I have run the custom roms and find them to be very stable but couple of bugs such as FC when taking picture and phone rebooting when plugging in headphones really annoy me because i like to listen to music and take a lot of pictures.
