[Q] 4.3 update for HK HTC ONE (CID: HTC_622)

Hi,
Just wanted to ask any users with an HTC One from HK if the 4.3 update has already been released. I bought my phone from there but I use it mainly in the Philippines. Checked today and there's still no update.
Also, if I restore my phone to the stock ROM from a nandroid backup then flash stock recovery, will I still be eligible for the OTA? I'd restore using an RUU but I can't seem to find one for Hong Kong phones. Thanks.

For OTA you need the stock rom and recovery.
Also the bootloader will be locked-relocked

Pretty sure it would be posted on this forum if the update had come out. We usually get it after Europe, so I doubt it. I'm on a custom ROM, so can't help.
Yeah, restoring from nandroid + stock recovery should let you get updates (when they arrive).

Alright thanks man. Are there any additional benefits to upgrading the whole firmware vs just the radio? I'm stuck with S-on.

I live in Hong Kong and my HTC ONE is HK version.
I can confirm you that 4.3 for HK HTC ONE itsn't there yet and no ETA were announced.
However, base on my previous HTC(HK) experiences and speculation.
If US/Taiwan and the rest of the world released the update on Oct, 2013.
HTC(HK) will release the update somewhere between March, 2014 and Oct, 2020.
Yes this is how good and efficient of HTC(HK), Yay baby!

Thanks for the heads - up. Guess I'll make sure my next phone is S-off before anything else

Seriously, using HK HTC handsets is almost like using a carrier branded handset. Usually close to being the last of the unbranded cid's to receive updates.

They are currently working on 5.0 not 4.4.4.
They also made a post somewhere about it. Skpipping 4.4.4 to bring 5.0 faster.

any HK owner with cid 622 got the 4.4 update?

Hello Meraj,
That message means that your phone has been modified from stock. That's why you won't get updates.
Boot the phone into the bootloader, and post the information it displays, here
It will tell you what Carrier ID and firmware it's using, among other things.
Maybe the phone can be reverted back to stock software.

Thanks for your reply..
Here is the picture of bootloader.
Can it be revert back . While in bootloader I saw couple of options of rebooting or to factory setting , wipe out n all.. will it be helpful .
Thank you

That confirms it.
That boot loader screen shows:
1) the phone is unlocked.
2 ) the "tampered" flag is set, which is probably because a custom recovery (TWRP aka Win Recovery) has been flashed on the phone.
3) the Hboot is version 1.44. That's a good thing.
Now you need to determine what the CID and MID are.
Do you have "ADB" installed on a computer that you can use ?

And if you wish to continue it with better rom... Try flashing ViperOne.... I bought from Dubai, used, unlocked & tempered too

To have ota update, you need both CID and MID that matches regions that received and update. You also need stock recovery and locked bootloader (yours is unlocked and I guess you have a custom recovery installed)
we need the info from fastboot getvar all command to help you
but do not post info related to your s/n and imei
if you don't know how, go read about adb and fastboot first

update help
hello guys.. thank you all for your help//
somehow manage to get these details about fastboot. . i am adding the picture.. i dont understand much but i have intuition that it might be asia ruu. please help me find one.. but one thing please if i go back to original stock then will i face the sim lock problem ( as i bought it in dubai and if the phone is from another country and by some other carrier on which only their sim works)? and main concern that if i will get all the regular updates launched by htc,
thank you

update help
i am sorry the picture wasnt clear before

IMPORTANT Make s-off first.
Sent from my HTC 802w

The phone is indeed from the UK as it's a Vodafone handset. Good news is you can get S-OFF following the revone thread and then flash the generic 1.28.401.7 RUU to get back to 100% and it will then get the OTA updates to get up-to-date

What about the SIM lock .. so before flashing important thing is to s off ..

Ok I'm about go insane I have just updated to the latest version for this phone Lolipop 5.0.2 and now I have no root and been trying to figure out how to get root or how to go back to a official version like 4.4.3 or 4.4.2 but I'm just so frustrated I can't focus or even read really feel like throwing this phone off a cliff... please help me btw I have tried KingRoot and it does work but once my phone turns off and back on it doesn't wanna work anymore any help is really appreciated maybe try to make it a little simpler for me to understand and my theory with KingRoot is that after the first use the second time around its like while KingRoot is trying to get root access during the process my phone just deletes kinguser because my es file explorer ask me if I want to delete the files that kinguser left behind.

Its very simple you'll see.
flash latest twrp recovery for sprint
boot in twrp recovery
exit twrp recovery
when trying to exit you'll be prompted to install root on the phone
select "yes"
wait for the phone to reboot
or
Flash any custom recovery of your choice, as long as its compatible with the sprint variant of M7
boot in your custom recovery
flash supersu2.46.zip in recovery
reboot
If your phone isn't already bootloader unlocked, you can't unlock it from htcdev.com since Verizon asked HTC to block bootloader unlock for their phones. In that case you will need to temp root your phone so you can s-off it and unlock it using sunshine. Once s-off and unlocked you can root using what said above.
everything explained here http://forum.xda-developers.com/ver...root-root-method-bl-unlock-5-0-x-ota-t3122099

I hate Verizon.... And I can't afford sunshine right now so I'm stuck :c

yay ik what you're saying but I really do like the LG G2 I have been using the htc one for about 2 years now and the only big feature I really loved about it is Beats Audio so I think I'm gonna sell this phone or try to trade it for the G2.

Good luck selling the Verizon variant of the M7, you can get a brand new verizon htc one for 119$ off contract so I guess you could maybe have 60$ for a used one if its in mint condition. Trading it for another phone would be a better idea imo if you are tired of this phone. I would simply buy sunshine and keep using this one, but thats only my opinon, I don't see the point in changing a 2013 phone for another 2013 phone...Its not like if it was an upgrade....

Where's our new MM update? Anybody has any idea?

What's wrong with Sprint, why didn't they release the new update? The unlocked device was updated almost a month ago, which means the software was sent to Sprint! How can we figure out when will Stupid Sprint release that?

The carrier devices are always 2-3 months (if I remember correctly) after the unlocked devices.

That much?

As per the tweet by Mo Versi (VP of HTC) we should be receiving on Jan 4th. Most of the time, things got delivered on the date he announced. Hoping for Jan 4.

That's a negative

It is likely going to be within. 7 days from now.

There's no where to find this out, which is annoying. Thanks for the updates.

It's solely on the carrier right now though, so who knows absolutely for certain.

I had it
I had a system update appear in my menu bar this mornjng. Without reading the message completely I installed it. It did so pretty quickly. And then nothing installed. I know it said "marshmallow" and 6.0. I don't know what happened.

Do you have the update number?

Well I don't like sprint rom with horrible black dial pad and bloatware. Who would want sprint mm? Why not custom rom dev edition based?

yeah, that was an update to prepare for MM upgrade. But I can't see what's the numbers of the update, where can I find it anywhere? The real ROM didn't come yet.

Just saw it, and was about to post,

Unfortunately the RUU downloaded from HTC website won't work with my factory locked original phone, what the f.
After reading the webpage carefully, using the RUU from there to program will erase all the data on the phone, so I don't know if that's what I want. I'm just becoming too lazy to deal with all of these

Found out my NEW Note 4 I brought is on Android 5.1.1 (DOK2) - Should I return it?

I just brought a NEW T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 4, and upon powering up the phone for the first time I found out the phone was on Android 5.1.1 (N910TUVU2DOK2).
Should I return this phone?
The reason I am considering returning this phone is because it is my understanding that the SM-N910T on Android 5.1.1 CANNOT do the following:
1. Cannot be rooted (partially or completely).
2. Cannot be downgraded to Android 4.4.4.
3. Cannot have any apps installed that would unlock the mobile hotspot feature without having to go through your carrier to pay extra.
Can anyone confirm if the above restrictions are correct?

I did the same thing in january..I was so damn excited about getting a N910T that I thought I could do whatever I wanted with and I didn't read up (well enough) on developement and ended up with DOK2. It is true you can't downgrade....as of right now....but I have never had any issue at all with root or apps that require root. As far as the the hotsppt mod is concerned, I can't help too much with that info because b I use straight talk...but i think it's a hit or miss situation...I think the two most popular roms for our phones (Tekhds and Overdrives) have the mod built in but I'm not 100% sure.. but I think the only way you could get one without DOK2 would be used

Yea, you can be rooted on Android: 4.4.4 -- 5.0.1 (see this thread from the first couple of threads stickied: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=55989825 ). It would seem root on 5.1.1 is not possible.

YES! 5.1.1 CAN be rooted. Just download the newest version of CF-Auto-Root. Do NOT use the one in the thread above/ below. It's outdated. Search that thread however to find others who HAVE rooted their 5.1.1, like me.

I just got my phone and I am on the same version as the op. I just want to make sure that I do not brick my phone when flashinng. I am planning on using the latest version of twrp and cf autoroot.
So for twrp I'm going to flash
twrp-3.0.2-0-trltetmo.img.tar
And for cf autoroot I am going to flash
CF-Auto-Root-trltetmo-trltetmo-smn910t.zip
Which is the newest version. Just want to double check that I am not making a brick
