Hey guys
I have been doing research ever since HTC announced they were cancelling lollipop and remembered when I got the phone, opened the box first thing I saw was a card stating "Two years of updates". Does anyone else remember this card/still have it as I am planning to take a a case to HTC on false advertising.
I bought the phone in september 2014.. i don't remember this card but i'm sure that they just don't care about update for a non flagship phone ..
Will have a look but don't remember seeing one

See image below....confirmed that the htc one range gets two years updates as part of advantage

Isn't that for USA only ? Though updates apply anywhere but was the Mini 2 sold in USA ?

The HTC One Remix is the Verizon variant of the One mini 2. So yeah, it must be updated. And HTC Advantage isn't USA only, HTC's Indian site also showcases it.

I think that is important difference.
You can find more information here https://source.android.com/compatibility/5.0/android-5.0-cdd.pdf
Looking at the linked PDF 1GB should be enough. Screen is normal and cpu is 32 bit. CM12 runs fine apart from camera and audio glitches.
Thread closed, no obvious point continuing conjecture.
Whatever HTC appeared to promise, or not, updates for however long may not necessarily imply updates to Lollipop. Updates ad infinitum could mean KitKat updates and mini-updates etc.

Only once a year it comes around. For me it means a new phone, I don't really care about the cost because its a yearly thing. So the question is what kind of phone to buy. I'm bound to a sim card so it's most likely going to be a T-Mobile phone. K so the question is what to buy I was thinking about a Nexus-s or a Droid 2 global because they both have Sims. Any idea's? I'm looking for power, speed, flexibility (rooting) and looks. I'm still rocking a good old g1 but I'm a little obsessed with (ORD) obsessive rom disorder.. some of you can relate.

You will need a lot of patience then...

No need to be rich, just visit frequently marketplace and you can get a great deal over there

Patience is a virtue that I have virtually none. But I love my Desire soooooo much that I'll not give it up. Except maybe for a Meizu M9. Anyone has it here?
It looks nice

My GF's in freezing, fouled-up Beijing. I'm advising her to get the Meizu M9 if she insists on an Android... Company owes her some relocation cash and she's running out of ideas on how to spend it.
I'll stick to the Desire until they manage to root the Meizu
Can I install any android OS on my hd7? What are the steps?

Why have you started a new thread when there's obviously others exactly the same?
The answer is no, not at the minute. Google or a search within the site would have told you that though. Even if it was available, nobody is going to spoon feed you the steps, you'll have to use the sites stickies and search tools like everyone else.
Audio is right, think logicly, why should you have to search so much for such an big thing (if it would exist),
my hint for the next time: just use google, do it, as long as its free
seriously, you dont have to wait till someone postet an awnser !
I had also the same question like you but 5 mins. googling and I got every information that I needed !
Is this it?

No links on that page what so ever. It talks about the HD7 as if it's already got Android on it. I think it's a fake website that just wants you to download some worthless pc programs that are all malware

The development on the HD7 is for android 2.3.3, This is the android 2.2 build for the clones.
Really? Is there anybody working on this project?

The clones have 2 Different things about them, Generally they have got black around the sides rather than our chrome plastic on the HD7's and they have different button layouts, The videos we have are of HD7's that are real. People have called them fake but theres no fake out there that looks exactly like the HD7, theres always something to tell them apart
Plus the clones run android 2.2, theres no HD7 clone that runs the Sense user interface and Android 2.3.3, as a phone can't be sold with HTC's sense user interface even if it is a cheap knockoff, the company would get sued regardless, and these clones get no updates, they will be stuck on android 2.2 forever.
But if you translate the page on xda.cn it says the same thing, the post needs to be removed as it's for clones and not for the actual device.
Our android port will come but its a case of who gets there first, Pepsi seems to be very busy, and The DarkForcesTeam are waiting for Mango to be publicly released so they can hack it onto that, as thats the biggest update microsoft plans to do for atleast a year. Ofcourse theres tango and apollo, tango will be a small update, and apollo will be windows 8, but will be released about a year after mango.

Isn't it awesome that custom roms can come with devices
Do you ever think a rom like Paranoid or Cyanogenmod could be cold with a pre-rooted phone?
also, for a custom rom phone to be targeted (and sold) at British/American/English speaking country?
The cool thing is, according to cnet's bench mark tests, this phone is more powerful then the S3 or One x!!
I don't like MIUI particuarlly but the idea is pretty awesome
Pics =D
Also
There is a problem with this phone being sold in America/Europe
Unless i'm missing something obvious, the Xiaomi Mi-One was the first MIUI Phone with the Mi-Two being the second? Anyway, wish these could be bought here, and in English, as i really like the MIUI style and the specs are pretty decent. I'm not sure that i'd be confident in build quality or after-sales care though.
The concept of having a custom ROM phone is a bit moot with Android though. How is a HTC phone with Sense Android, or a Samsung phone with Touchwiz Android, any different from a Xiaomi phone with MIUI Android?
lol
Well, makes sense. I never heard of the one though. I still find it interesting how it is supposedly better than the one x or s3
Why would anyone buy a one x or s3 when this is cheaper (in China where it is sold)

Probably because being cheap is usually the opposite of quality and last-ability. Also, when my phone breaks I return it to my provider or manufacturer by giving it to the driver that brings me a new one the next day. Good luck doing that with one of these.

I guess because sense/wiz only comes with phones (in theory) whilst MIUI was first a ROM and I'm pretty sure is open source.
Men, maybe I'm just overexcited by a cheap powerphone
But do you think they OEM lock the phone, or is it prerooted or nexus like (in rooting method)?
Let's see the modded back of hTC One M8 trying to be alike hTC 10
The story begins since the phone felt down and got some scratch, and soon he realizes he has to do something and with the inspiration from newest hTC flagship, he had spent more than five hours to make hTC One M8 back looks alike our newest, hTC 10. So surprising !
Work done by a Vietnamese hTC Fan and he called it's a hTC 18

Neat.
What tools did he use? It actually gave me an idea to polish my whole, scratched up phone.
he was asked to provide the instruction video already, since it's available I will post for your reference

Looks like op won't answer about how this was done.
So if you don't want to risk ruining it even more and got few coins to spare i recommend you wraps from dbrand.com
