[HTC One S] Bibphone:
Can you give a bit of details concerning that?

I spent a week reading about it all over Internet and nothing/nobody is clearly explaining the main problem when debranding a T-MOB010 and trying to update to JB. I know that the warranty will be void, but for me it is not a big issue. Other than that I'm quite blind in term of info...

Hope someone can explain this clearly. :good:
[HTC One S] usaff22:
You'll need to change the Model ID as well, which requires an ENG HBOOT
[HTC One S] Bibphone:
It makes sense. I haven't heard that it was available... probably a $$ question? :eek:

So, unless having access to ENG HBOOT... nothing except custom roms or waiting for T-Mobile US to relase JB on HOS.

Thanks for your help usaff22! :good:
[HTC One S] usaff22:
There might be an ENG HBOOT from the developer of the RegawMod Plugin for the One S, but last time I tried my own plugin it bricked my phone.
[HTC One S] Bibphone:
Yes... it is quite the problem with Engineering Hboot as it increases considerably the risks that your phone becomes a brick. Probably better to use a custom rom or wait for T-Mobile at this point. It is not worth the try to brick our phone. Hopefully T-Mobile US will finally learn to communicate with their customers... :eek:

just ended a chat with a htc agent

he said through checking my imei that the update will come in the next days

I own a htc one s with cid_102(germany) but I'm in italy :o
[HTC One S] n_frang:
Here's hoping then! I'm cid_102 in UK. A friend of mine with a One X told me yesterday HTC have said both devices will have 4.2 and Sense 5 by June...i wont hold my breath.
[HTC One S] gelo01:
I wish those words aren't false hopes. :p
[HTC One S] ccrama:
Fingers crossed that this update translates to US T-MOB too
[HTC One S] harpr33t:
Come on T-Mobile. Stop delaying an update that was released in over 40 markets already. Is there anyone at T-Mobile we can complain to?
[HTC One S] ccrama:
I wish there was :(. No sign of the update anywhere.
[HTC One S] 2KAndy:
really like to hear that! got the same cid
[HTC One S] ccrama:
Anyone heard anything yet about the US Tmob One s?
[HTC One S] harpr33t:
Ask tmobile's facebook.

I asked today and they sent me a bs link about their newsroom. When I further questioned them and told them does it really take 5 months to beta test software? They deleted my post before saying thank you for your feedback and time. Great customer service.

Now if you want to do what AT&T customers have done which worked,

Go to this link http://support.t-mobile.com/thread/39485?tstart=0

and post in that thread giving Tmobile a piece of your mind for delaying the update.
[HTC One S] ccrama:
They actually deleted your post? That is insane. And T-Mobile staff has pretty much abandoned the HTC One S forums, as it has become a moshpit of angry customers. I think that it's strange Sammy can get an update out in 1 month flat, while it takes HTC 5 months. The worst part is that once we get JB, Key Lime and Sense 5 will be out, and I highly doubt Tmobile would spend another half year giving us sense 5. *sigh*
[HTC One S] harpr33t:
I'd understand that HTC has not been doing so well financially so it might take a bit longer than Samsung. But its insane to not have the update 5 months after it was released to other phones that are the same model minus bloatware.

If anyone wants I have a screenshot of the convo. The rep was mike from T-Mobile who is a tforce rep on the T-Mobile support forums aswell.
[HTC One S] ccrama:
Well I think the main reason its taking so insanely long is WiFi calling, which apparently T-Mob had a problem with earlier in the beta testing
[HTC One S] harpr33t:
You can manually set up WiFi calling in under 10 minutes.
[HTC One S] freshmike:
Htc stated they will release sense 5 for htc one x and s .. no date of course ... I see most people complaining here are US t-mobile .. or is it just me catching this negative vibe ..
[HTC One S] ccrama:
@freshmike we in US on Tmob are still waiting for Jellybean, despite sense. So it is a universal negative vibe

When that happens i will do s-off, and flash better rom...

Sense is overpriced... I think...
[HTC One S] ChrisAG:
Take it from a former Galaxy Nexus owner, 4.2 is no big deal and even introduced new bugs. The majority of improvements came with 4.1. I'd rather HTC skipped 4.2 and give us Key Lime Pie in the Fall, but that is wishful thinking.
[HTC One S] freshmike:
4.2 has those terrible terrible lockscreen widgets, had to disable them on my other i9000 CM 10.1 with an app from the play store, so I agree I'm not fancy 4.2 ..

It's crazy how GS2 is receiving the 4.1.2 update straight from 4.0.4 while we've no idea when we'll get it. Even the 4.1.1 rollout was delayed and fragmented and not to mention it left half the users unhappy. Would've been better had they made us wait a lil longer and given us a stable bug free 4.1.2 or 4.2.2 instead of 4.1.1! :(

I did the otapackage make straight after, and it created a zip file, but it's only 35 MB, wtf. My system.img file is 90 MB.
[HTC One S] BiteBlaze:
Can you upload both of those and I will see what I can do ;)
[HTC One S] djsubtronic:
Having problems uploading the system.img, but I realised when I zip it up it goes from 92 MB to 34 MB, so I guess the problem lies elsewhere.
[HTC One S] BiteBlaze:
So you are uploading the system.img? I can work with that I think
[HTC One S] djsubtronic:
Uploading again. The device doesn't boot up at all. Right after the HTC splash screen it just goes blank.
[HTC One S] BiteBlaze:
Did you flash the zip?
[HTC One S] djsubtronic:
Yes I did. Also tried flashing boot.img from CM9 since the boot.img created by the make was only 160KB for some reason.

Sense 5

http://www.gottabemobile.com/2013/04/08/htc-android-4-2-sense-5-update-breakdown/

It's always better to have a unbranded phone ...
[HTC One S] Orical:
The One S was the last HTC mistake I'll ever make, I still have it but it just sits in a draw now. HTC really let themselves go by dropping the removable battery and saying "sdcards are a problem that the company will not continue to support them" and they still don't do right by their customers this being a clear sign that if you buy anything from them its not going to get the updates it needs and will be out dated by the time the device is actually released.

It seems like there are a lot of companies that want the new One to succeed due to the amount of reviews but the bottom line is your still getting a device that bares the HTC curse and will prove to be another mistake a few months after its out.

"Because Sense 5 is said to be coming with Android 4.2, we imagine that the One S will be getting Android 4.2 Jelly Bean at some point, but again, it’s not clear when." They aren't even sure your gonna get it that looks like an assumption from here so good luck with that update in a year or two for that Unbranded device of yours.

[HTC One S] freshmike:
Thanks, I will wait, got time..
[HTC One S] gelo01:
People, look at it this way, the One S wasn't a flagship phone at the time of it's release, maybe that's the reason why up until now, we haven't have a concrete proof if we will have another update (may it be for the branded or unbranded) to Sense 5 and android 4.2.x, yet on the other hand, the Galaxy SII was a flagship phone, so i believe that's why it's still getting JB and maybe android 4.2.x even though it's almost 2 years old. But that's just my opinion and how i view the situation we're in..

Just chill guys and be cool. Even if updates are still very unlikely, we never know what HTC have in store for us, if ever there would be. :cool::p:D
[HTC One S] Terminator19:
Hmm, people complain about lack of SD slot and non removable battery........yet they still go and buy the phone and then come on forums complaining about it.........:confused: Why buy the phone in the first place if you care so much about those two things??? You knew before you parted with your cash what you were getting....

And lol at all the people complaining about not getting updates on their branded devices and blaming htc, that isn't HTC's fault, unbranded phones got the JB update around xmas time, it is your carriers fault.

If htc don't release a ton of devices again this year, I expect that the one S will see sense V5 around the summer holidays i.e. July/August, about 1-2 months after the one X gets the update (just like all the previous updates)

Still find it funny that people think HTC are awful with updates, they really aren't, they have provided JB to the most devices still (not including released models with JB) and they are pretty quick about it considering they bring the update to more than just one device.

They provided the ICS update to the sensation before the GS 2 as well as providing the GB update to the desire before the GS 1 (although not officially)

Samsung only quickly update their flagship devices, any other device of theirs, good luck with getting an update. How many devices have they actually updated with jellybean so far excluding the GS 2 (which only started getting the update in the last few weeks)? Considering they are the far bigger company with way more money etc. and provide crap support to anything other than their flagship device, you would think that they would be quicker with the GS 2, especially considering it was/is extremely popular.

You think they're bad, then go and buy a Sony or LG phone and see how they compare. Motorola were dreadful but they seem to be improving......
[HTC One S] harpr33t:
I complained on the forums and T-Mobile blamed HTC
[HTC One S] ChrisAG:
That is open to interpretation.

HTC finished 4.1.1 a long time ago and gave it to T-Mobile back in January. It's possible T-Mob is stubbornly insisting a feature be included or removed, or they see a bug they deem important where the rest of the world doesn't.

In Canada HTC provided the 4.0.4 update but at the last minute the carriers decided not to push it out, claiming there was a bug introduced. That's too bad, because in remembering the 4.0.4 update on my Galaxy Nexus, it was a significant improvement from 4.0.3.

Now as of March 7 all carriers in Canada have pushed out the 4.1.1 update (or maybe, they authorized HTC to push it out).

You guys have my sympathy, 4.1.1 is a great improvement in most respects, bringing the phone into 2013, I hope you get it soon. (For those wishing for 4.2.x instead, it isn't a huge jump, so don't feel you are missing out).

---------- Post added at 11:06 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:01 AM ----------

I disagree somewhat, the One S was better than the typical mid-range phone, filling a niche for people that wanted a powerful phone without the gargantuan size. Whatever the One X is capable of running, the S is also. They were almost a "dual flagship" team, and it was for a time the flagship on T-Mobile and on other carriers around the world that didn't get the One X.
[HTC One S] Orical:
I bought the phone like everyone else here did, because HTC was solid up until that point and gave them the benefit of the doubt but like many realized it was a mistake one I won't make again. Hope that clears your confusion and sorry I had to spell it out for you.

I bought my amaze and it was a flagship phone and look what happened to me. End of lifed 9 months out and not getting jellybean at all. Phone isn't even 2 years old. Sad. I know, this isn't an amaze forum, but I'm on here because my gf has a One S. Not buying an HTC phone again.
[HTC One S] Orical:
That's exactly the problem no matter what device it is, they push it like God himself came down and created it and the company hits you with every promise in the book to get it sold but once it is and a few months goes by they drop it because their to busy working on the next three devices and its not just HTC its all of them. Its not like we're asking for miracles here just keep the software up to date, they complain its so hard to do but they have no problem releasing the next device with the latest build just to get you to run out and break pocket to have what you should be getting anyways. If its the money then require people to pay 5 bucks for the latest build I'm sure everyone here would have paid for it by now just to avoid the carrier drama of contracts and their hold over everyone.

My bad sorry about the rant there but it pisses me off to have a 600 dollar paper weight when two months later they are giving them out for nothing just to get rid of the overstock from a company that could care less, they are cell phones not video games and they get more updates than these do.

Rebuttal

If this entire excuse for HTC dragging its feet was written about the Galaxy S III then you would have a good argument. The problem is itis the Galaxy S II we are talking about and it was launched 11 months before the HTC One S and it is getting Jellybean on the same carrier (T-Mobile USA) as the HTC One S so you can't say that the carrier is the reason. While I miss the removable battery and SD card support, I still love a lot of things about the One S and even though I also own an international Galaxy Nexus I would consider going back to the One S as my primary phone if it were updated. I like having one phone to play with all the custom ROMs (Currently playing with Paranoid Android) and keep my other phone on a stock ROM but rooted. Other than the screen resolution and size, the One S is superior to the Galaxy Nexus in most every way ... except of course the fact that the Galaxy Nexus is on Jellybean 4.2.2 and will soon be on Key Lime Pie. The android version trumps so much hardware advantage that the One S has.
[HTC One S] Terminator19:
Perhaps the reason T-mobile aren't providing the update is because the one S is not popular especially compared to the GS 2 (pretty much everywhere in the UK no longer sells the one S [haven't for a few months now], however, the GS 2 is still being sold and still quite expensive too), why would they provide the update to a phone that not many people have, they are just wasting time and money doing so (carrier has to check that the update works well first, add/optimise their own stuff that they add and then test it further, it isn't as simple and quick as what many people think), instead they will put that time and money on a device that is popular on their network.

http://gizmodo.com/5987508/why-android-updates-are-so-slow

http://readwrite.com/2011/01/14/data-shows-what-manufacturers-and-carriers-delay-android-updates

If HTC were the ones to blame, then why does nearly every other unbranded and branded phone in the UK and other parts of the world have the update? Surely if HTC were the reason, then no one/hardly anyone else would have the update??

Carriers will decide if their branded phones get the update or not, afaik HTC can't force them to if they don't want to, I can guarantee you that if the GS 2 wasn't as popular on the T-mobile network, they wouldn't be providing the update either.

And of course T-mobile will say that it isn't their fault but HTC's fault, they're are just trying to cover their own asses, companies will come up with any old excuse to not provide an update to a certain phone, it is as bad as the manufacturers that say this XXX device won't get the newest update because "the hardware doesn't support it", when it most certainly does.....

Soooo a couple of t-mo big wigs came in our store the other day to "shop" us during the 5 launch....to make a long story short after everything was said & done he disclosed who they were & the guy who did most of the ? Asking said he was rather impressed by my knowledge of product & expertise and started boastfully telling me about their plans for late and so on and so forth which is cool and what not, but me being the outspoken person that I am ceased the opportunity to ask one burning question, as I pulled out my red headed stepchild of a phone and proclaimed why and when hasn't this phone received jellybean.....well needless to say he looked perplexed, like after everything I just told you about you want to known about this old thing? But he then took his note 2 and emailed someone because he didn't know his self lol....well two days have passed since my encounter and I received an email from him stating we should receive it over the air in the upcoming week and via htc's site.......no date-no version-no excuses lol.....guess it's better then being totally in the dark......but I won't hold my breath either.
