hey guys .i just pre-ordered htc one developer edition.what do you think i get the benefits purchasing the developer edition instead of at&t version.

do you think it works with at&t and t-mobile lte networks ?

will i get the software upgrades first like the international version ?

normally the at&t version device get upgrades very late compared to the international version devices.i always wanted to buy a device which works on every kind of gsm networks(hspa+,4g and lte ) in usa and internationally(3g,4g and lte).and which gets the software upgrades right on time .i thought this would be the one .

someone clarify me the choice i made was right

:fingers-crossed: :confused:
[One (M7) General] expertzero1:
If you want non bloated att software, possibly faster updates, and bootloader unlockable.

Lte will work for both networks.

Updates will probably be quicker due to the fact that there is NO carrier testing. So updates should be fast as the international version.

Sure why not!
[One (M7) General] GuestK00156:
There is an entire thread dedicated to this. The dev edition had an unlocked bootloader and SIM. It will only function on AT&T correctly at the moment, but later this year tmobile should have enough of their lte and refarmed hspa network up for it to work properly on there.
[One (M7) General] dizzyraider:
The benefit of the Developer Edition is the unlocked bootloader (allows you to use custom ROM), and the unlocked sim (which ATT won't unlock for you even if you buy outright).

Since it is a non-branded handset, it should allow you to upgrade your software like the international version, although this is not as important if you use custom ROMs (since Custom ROMs usually updates as new software is released).

The Developer Edition will work perfectly with AT&T for HSPA and LTE as it is identical besides the branding and unlocked status. It will likely work with T-Mobile's LTE when it's ready but will not work with the 1700mhz HSPA+ network. It may however work in areas where T-Mobile uses 850/1900 frequency (Not everywhere at the moment)

So in terms of advantage over ATT version, the Developer Edition is much much better as it allows you to use customs ROMs (since you are here asking the question, I would assume custom ROM is something you would like to use). SIM unlock is not important to everyone as most will stay with the network anyways, but the lack of custom ROM ability flat out makes it the less desired version.
[One (M7) General] sush143555:
ya am not much into the custom rom thing .am just looking for the option to use it on at&t and t-mobile and faster updates .
[One (M7) General] dizzyraider:
Well, you asked the questions and I answered them for you (the differences should be black and white for you). Whether or not if it's the right decision is up to you.

32gb or 64GB? Worth the extra cash?

Hi:

I know this thread is about the dev edition but I was wondering if there's any other difference between the 32gb and 64gb dev edition? :confused: I know the dev edition has unlocked bootloader, but couldn't we achieve the same thing on the 32gb unlocked edition using this method (htcdev), or am I wrong? Thanks for your help :fingers-crossed:
[One (M7) General] xstayxposix:
Yes, it can be unlocked via HTC Dev. Only the AT&T branded devices will be blocked.

Edit: according to your post title, you're asking if dev edition is worth the extra money? YES. Not even $100 more for double the storage. :o
[One (M7) General] expertzero1:
You can unlock yes. Your getting a extra 32 GB basically
[One (M7) General] saco274:
So the dev version doesn't have custom roms, or very little custom roms? If so why would that be? I love flashing roms, but this would be a real bummer.

Nevermind...I read it incorrectly. The Dev version does have custom roms. How are the custom roms different on a dev phone than lets say the sprint version?
[One (M7) General] Toaster Strudels:
The Sprint version of the phone has different hardware as it is a CDMA phone, not a GSM phone. You could potentially brick your phone by flashing ROMS that aren't for your specific device. Stick to this forum for your mods and ROMS/kernels.

Make sure that you install a recovery (CWM or TWRP, both located in the Original Android Development section), which is necessary before you begin to flash anything. Again, ONLY FLASH MODS FOR OUR DEVICE FROM THIS FORUM :)

Hello.

I installed the latest Android-IA (android-4.2.2_r1-ia1) on my Acer Iconia W700, and it works perfectly. The only downside (however, huge one) is the lack of libhoudini - without it half of android apps refuse to load on x86 processor. Which, by the way, scores ~70000 in Antutu (!)...

I searched everywhere, but there's just too little information on both libhoudini as well as Android-IA :( . Please, can anyone help in porting this library to Android-IA? I know it is not open source, but so are gapps, and Android-x86 already uses libhoudini. So there shouldn't be any real difficulties...

WBR, Draco.
[Android General] rlpc8:
Antutu score 70000!? really? You are using the i5 model?
[Android General] dragon_76:
I remember finding a manual install of libhoudini somewhere but it didnt work. That was with the february version of A-IA, though.
[Android General] DJDrew:
Did you ever find a solution to this?
[Android General] irie.:
Hi there

I'd also be glad to hear more about that...From what I could gather so far, there is no fully working ARM translator / libhoudini solutions for android IA. Hence the only solution would be to switch to android x86...

A little foreshadow. I attempted to install the jellybean update on a rooted ATT phone. I ended up getting sent to the TWRT (?) screen on the install. I was silly and decided to clear the system... Which erased my OS completely.

For a while I was able to get to the TWRT(?) screen where I could mount my sd card, etc. While researching the problem I came across this:

a solution of fastbooting a recovery.img

I ran the fastboot recovery.img. The only problem is the only screen I can now access is the bootloader. I have bootloader 1.14.0002 loaded onto my phone if that helps.

Is there anyway to try to get a operating system or flash a rom onto this phone still or is it bricked for good? Also if I was able to put a rom onto it, what do you sugggest?

When I try to go to Recovery or Factory Reset, I get the HTC screen with the red text underneath it and it never goes any further.

That is the information listed in my bootloader as of now. I am not showing it listed as a drive in my computer when connected to USB. Also when I 'power off' I am in a reset cycle that doesn't stop.

I really appreciate any help in advance. This was a big wake up call to myself about how I should be a lot more careful when messing with these things.

Thank you to everyone that answers!

[Public Service Announcement] Read before installing the AT&T Jellybean OTA or RUU

You might be hosed. Can you get into bootloader?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
Read before doing anything. Such a simple task. It's easy to read, it's hard to come back from a brick.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] InflatedTitan:
You are not bricked, you are not even close to bricked... If you are already rooted, get the official jellybean update of your head. Clear your thoughts and lock it away. There are tons of custom jellybean ROMs available, a couple based on atts JB update... Flash one of those. If you can get to bootloader you're fine. If you can still access twrp, even better... Which version of twrp do you have IF you can still access? We'll start with that. If not You'll have to fastboot a recovery. 2.3.3.0 is your safest bet, I think the community will agree this is one of the most stable versions for our device.. Just in case you have to push it, download from here onto your computer. http://goo.im/devs/OpenRecovery/evita/openrecovery-twrp-2.3.3.0-evita.img

Now drop that image file into your adb/fastboot folder. Right click your adb/fastboot folder and open a command prompt from there. Shoot this command.

Fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.3.3.0-evita.img

Now from bootloader choose to boot into recovery. Awwww yea now we on to something!

Now you can download the rom of choice onto your computer. Since you opted for official JB, take a look at Scotts CleanRom. It uses ATT firmware as base :thumbup: once downloaded, double click the zip file (rom) it'll show contents, and youll see a boot.img. simply drop the boot.img into your fastboot/adb folder.

Now on your phone. Choose "mount" in recovery. Make sure it mounts and shows files on your computer. From here drag the entire rom zip (cleanrom) onto your SD card. Now "unmount" hell yea we getting close. I can feel it!

Back out and choose "install" find cleanrom.zip, and swipe to flash. F*ckin rite, this is what android is all about.

Once its completed, DO NOT REBOOT SYSTEM. Since your s-on and have 1.14 hboot, you'll have to fastboot the boot.img you put in your adb folder. Choose to boot into bootloader! Make sure once again it says fastboot usb

Fire up command prompt inside that folder.

Shoot the command ---> fastboot flash boot boot.img

Sending.......

Okay....

Finished.....

OMG success!!! Some people will say to ---> fastboot erase cache

I don't necessarily do this, but it definitely won't hurt. Now reboot system and enjoy Scotts hard work. They don't calls his ROMs the most stable ROMs on the planet for nothing ;)
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] exad:
Not only does fastboot erase cache not take long it avoids many stupid little issues. I would say it's a must when flashing a new recovery.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
The reason it went to recovery is very simple. The OTA needs to have stock recovery in order to install. You don't have stock recovery on your phone anymore, you have custom recovery (TWRP). So the OTA stalled there, when it didn't find stock recovery.

Of course it did, what were you expecting to happen? Wiping the OS is the very definition of what happens when you wipe system. If you didn't know what wiping system would do, you shouldn't have done it. For that matter, you shouldn't be doing anything on your phone if you don't know what its for.

A lot of this points to a fundamental lack of reading and understanding:

- Don't know the name of the custom recovery installed on the system

- Wiping things without knowing what they are

- Basic rule (that many folks here seem to ignore, for reasons unknown): Don't install any OTA on a rooted device without first researching what will happen

Lack of basic understanding which spells almost certain doom when modding smartphones. I would highly suggest a few solid hours of research before messing with your phone anymore. I'm not saying this to be a jerk. I'm saying it so you don't brick your phone.

You aren't bricked. With very few exceptions (and this isn't one of those) if the screen turns on, and you can get into hboot, the phone is recoverable. And probably fairly easily so, with the right steps. But you need to do some homework before proceeding.

[HELP] Not sure if bricked or hardware issue?

I know this is my first post, but I really need the help. :(

(Also, I'm sorry if this is a bit long)

I've have searched the HOX Evita and Android Q&A forums countless time in the past 3 days trying to figure this out. This thread and this one: "http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2156665&highlight=fastboot+usb+hangs", are the most similar to what I think is happening to my phone.

Just a little background:

- Bought a used HTC One X, but has a cracked digitizer which I'll be replacing this weekend. (Not sure if this is causing the problems, could it?)

- I was told that the OS was still stock, but I know that's not true now. :mad:

- During the first 12 hours I used it, I had no problems.

- Then while I was playing music it rebooted and went to the HTC boot up screen with the red text. Stopped then rebooted again to the normal HTC boot up screen but just hanged there and vibrated nonstop.

- I then used the power button to force a shut down and haven't been able to use it since then.

Here's where I'm at now:

- I'm able to get to the bootloader screen sometimes with the VOL DOWN+PWR method, but most of the time it goes to the QHSUSB mode.

- When I can get to the bootloader, I try to get to Fastboot or Recovery mode but once I press the power button it just stops and does nothing.

- The few times I have gotten into fastboot, and plug in an USB cable, it hangs.

- So far I have NOT gotten it to show "FASTBOOT USB" therefore I haven't been able to use a RUU or flash a boot.img.

- I have reinstalled the drivers almost 5 times now, and tried with different sources from here and HTC Sync. And also tried with 3 different cables and USB ports on my laptop. But still no signs of a connection with my laptop.

- And at one time I (before I knew I shouldn't have) I did try to Factory Reset from the bootloader, but nothing happened. I hope that won't become my downfall.

But yeah, sorry again for the long post, just trying to be thorough. If anyone has an idea of what I can do, please I need your help. It really doesn't matter to me whether my HOX goes back to stock, or use a ROM like CleanROM 6, as long as I can use it again.

Also here's the info at the bootloader screen.

You will have to get a proper fastboot connection before you can do anything. Then unlock the bootloader then you can flash a recovery on there. Is this an AT&T phone?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] pharrjw:
Thanks for the reply. Yes, it is an AT&T phone. I understand that I need a fastboot connection, I'm just having difficulties timing it. Is it normally this difficult to get a FASTBOOT USB connection? Or is there something else that I could be missing, or any other method?

I have thought about booting Windows XP on my laptop from a flash drive then trying to connect from that. Does XP have a better record when it comes to unlocking and flashing with android?

If you did a factory reset from bootloader your sd is corrupted. When you can get into the bootloader what does it do if you click on recovery?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] exad:
There's nothing to time. Drivers and fastboot/adb are all you need. HTC Sync can get in the way so kill or uninstall it if it's running. When you boot to Bootloader, select fastboot, plug in the phone, if you have the the drivers it should go into fastboot USB. I have seen people having issues before due to something interfering with the HTC drivers but it's not common. You can try creating a VM for a clean environment with less chance of anything interfering.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] pharrjw:
Thanks again for the replies guys. :)

I was just able to get back into Bootloader, and tried to go into recovery, but with no luck. It just hangs at the bootloader screen. :

EDIT: Not sure if relevant, but after that it eventually shut down, and when I checked it in the Device Manager it appeared again as QHSUSB-DLOAD. :(

I'm gonna try it again with HTC Sync uninstalled. But if I get the same results I'll probably will endup creating a VM, and hopefully get better results.

I would also like to add that when I do try to get to the bootloader I get various results. Sometimes it goes into QHSUSB like I said in my first post. Then sometimes just nothing but a blank screen and the LED light blinking like the battery is low, or it's solid as if it is charging even though my HOX isn't plugged in to anything. That's what I was referring to when I said I was having difficulties timing it.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] exad:
factory reset in bootloader corrupts the SD card. We wont worry about that just yet as there's nothing we can do about it until we can get recovery on there.

You're going to have to be very careful because it sounds like your EMMC partitions might have some issues. if you can get it to bootlaoder KEEP IT AT THAT SCREEN. don't power it off or anything, leave it there. Because one wrong move could be a perma brick. If we can get a rom on there to S-OFF with, we can RUU to restore your emmc partitions.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] pharrjw:
Sorry about running off, I had to work. But yeah, sadly after about 30 attempts to get in to bootloader, I still haven't had any success. But the thing is, I'm not completely sure if I even have any battery power left, because there's no LED notification when I try to charge it. Earlier though before I left, I plugged it into my wall charger and when I came back the LED light was blinking.

I'm going to keep trying though. If I do have any luck and am able to get it into bootloader, what would be the next step?

Like what files do I need to download? I already have this RUU: "htc_one_x_RUU_2.20.502.7_att_us_08022012"

Should I go ahead and download a ROM? I just want to be prepared in case a miracle happens. Plus I've been noticing that it's taking me more time and attempts between each chance I get into bootloader, I feel like my HOX is just slowly fading away. :(

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] pharrjw:
Alright, I was able to run a VM of Xp and install all the driver I need on it, plus I have downloaded all the necessary files.

Also, I was able to get my HOX back to the bootloader menu. I can still use the volume key to select an option in the menu, but I have not done anything yet becuase I'm afraid it will just hang again.

Hopefully someone sees these before my phone shuts down or freezes on me again. :fingers-crossed:

EDIT: I left my phone alone for about 3 mins. and when I came back the screen was blank. When I plugged it in to my laptop, it showed up as a Portable Device, and I can see it as a hidden drive in My Computer. And I'm not sure but it looks like it's charging.
