If they were to release such a version of the One, that would mean that all the drivers on the phone would be made to work with AOSP. It would be great help for the maintainers of any type of AOSP Rom for this phone. It would fix a lot of loose ends, increase stability, and even perhaps improve battery.

However, I'll believe it when I see it.
[One (M7) General] daddioj:
I wonder if this phone is going to have a diff CID or existing phones will also have a choice of running pure android.. come on S-off we need youuuuuuuuuuuuuu
[One (M7) General] Sarsippius:
If this does turn out to be true I think it will be a good move even if I doubt I will ever put AOSP on my One. It should at least sway a lot of those buyers who would get the S4 purely for AOSP and will hopefully aid all the devs who work on AOSP roms for the One.

On a personal level I have a Nexus 7 and don't really think AOSP offers anything really compelling compared to the current Sense and I wouldn't want to loose the camera features.
[One (M7) General] daddioj:
it will also help a lot of the fragmentation issues. so its a start! but I do love sense
[One (M7) General] Gambler_3:
Nobody cares about "stock" android, the reason why a google device matters is because CM and other popular roms like PA run almost 100% stable on nexus devices due to the sheer ease of development on those devices.

S4 need Google Edition because of so many bloat ware, not One
[One (M7) General] daleski75:
All they need to do is keep sense which I think is very good and just put it into the AOSP chain so the phone gets updates at the same time as the nexus range and also the galaxy s4 google edition.

Although a google edition HTC One with AOSP would certainly go a long way to helping out Cyanogenmod etc as well.
[One (M7) General] ataft:
I'm surprised how much I am liking the stock experience on this phone. It is great news that Google is now going to be selling pure AOSP Samsung (and hopefully HTC) phones, but nothing would sway me to pure AOSP at the moment. Sense on the One X was different compared to sense on the One. It is so refined and functional on the One that I would actually prefer it over AOSP and most AOSP based Roms. I guess what would ultimately get me, however, are future updates to Android. HTC is a pain in the ass with updates.

Great news either way though. Smart move by Google.
[One (M7) General] -A-P-M-:
HTC One looks great, but I didn't bought it because of HTC Sense, which I don't like and because of very slow updates. If HTC releases One with stock Android, then I would buy One instead of SGS4 for sure.
[One (M7) General] tmcquake:
I agree. In the past I have been a stock Android fanboy, but after using the great features that Sense offers (Boomsound, Zoes, TV remote app, etc) it is not worth it to me to lose them in favour of stock. My preferred solution is to just install Holo Locker and Nova Launcher - gives me the look of stock with the features of Sense 5.
[One (M7) General] take55:
If a Google Edition will be released - will people be able to flash their own devices and turn them into stock Android devices?
[One (M7) General] androidindian:
I guess it would make aosp/cm/aokp etc development really quick and a lot more going here. since all htc variants have the same hardware, it will certainly be amazing ! :)

The Rumours are True! 'Google Edition' HTC One coming soon with vanilla Android : Link
[One (M7) General] irishdsmyth:
Fingers-crossed
[One (M7) General] jbarrack:
If this true my HTC One will be on ebay as soon as the announcement is made. I will def get this phone. No matter how much.
[One (M7) General] blackroseMD1:
In an ideal world, it would be modified stock Android with the proprietary drivers for the camera and maybe Beats or whatever.

Either way, I can't wait to get the stock ROM off of this phone and play with it.
[One (M7) General] Adamsville MITM:
I wonder if they'll change out the camera?
[One (M7) General] BodegaBay:
I couldn't agree more. I've been living with Nova and Holo for two weeks now(thanks to The Verge on this tidbit! ) and enjoy the look and feel of stock but not having to give up some of great features of this phone.

Yes, there are things that I miss (or will miss) such as the horizontal swipe away multitasker, photosphere, or timely updates. However, I just can't go back to the stock Jelly Bean camera app. The UI was painful and focus was horribly slow. As a parent with fast moving toddlers, I much prefer having HTC's two button layout so I can immediately access either camera or video.
[One (M7) General] blackroseMD1:
You can flash the 4.2 camera and have working Photosphere. You'll have 2 camera apps and 2 galleries (Sense and AOSP). Best of both worlds.
[One (M7) General] nugzo:
Here is a post from Paul himself, your developer extraordinaire.. :)

I guess in a situation like this being wrong is a good thing ;)

---------- Post added at 05:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:55 PM ----------

No, it is supposed to be identical. they are using existing stock. It wouldn't be cost effective to produce a different phone. They will be able to get the camera working good. It might not have all the features but it should still take good pictures.
[One (M7) General] Zexell:
Forgive my ignorance but what does it really mean?

Is anything about the hardware going to be an upgrade from the current HTC One?

Can't we just load AOKP or AOSP on our current phones and have the same google experience?

I'm not sure what this announcement really means.
[One (M7) General] ataft:
It means you get the HTC phone on the outside, but everything inside is pure Google. Hardware should be the same, just the software would differ. That's good, but at the same time bad. Sense is really nice this time around.

I would think if the hardware doesn't change, we can all have the Google One, but it is probably a bit too early to make that assumption.
[One (M7) General] l.m.prowse:
At the moment current AOSP roms are hacked to work and not completely stable, the release of this would give developers the drivers needed to make them completely stable and fully functional :D
[One (M7) General] nugzo:
Wouldnt devs just replace theirs with the aosp base and then tweak from there? I would hope so anyway :cyclops:
[One (M7) General] l.m.prowse:
For Pure AOSP roms yes, but from what I understand the drivers get built with the source when compiling a CM10.1/AOKP rom so they'd have to somehow merge them into the device trees.

I am however guessing, just seems logical based on what I've read :)
[One (M7) General] devinthomas:
Is it correct to assume that this will have a great impact on AOSP ROM reliability/development time/resources for most HTC One models? AT&T & T-Mobile, Developer/International specifically.

If so, this is some of the best news I've gotten all week. That would hopefully mean we'd get our hands on Key Lime Pie in a very timely manner.
[One (M7) General] nugzo:
Yeah i have no clue where he got that. I haven't heard of any sense update to make it even more minimal. There isnt much sense left compared to sense 4.
[One (M7) General] HRodMusic:

[One (M7) General] caysman:
Just for the record, I hate Sense with a passion, it is inconsistent, lousy and amateurish compared to stock Google UI. I WELCOME the stock Android on the beautiful HTC ONE, at least I can finally use the ONE stable without butchered UI made by a lesser team than Google's.

I hope all HTC ones can be flashed with the stock Android.
[One (M7) General] jonny68:
Why would anyone want to buy this when you can simply just flash a AOSP ROM, anyway I much prefer sense 5.

---------- Post added at 02:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:20 PM ----------

Absolute rubbish, sense 5 is fantastic and HTC have finally got it right and this is from someone who is traditionally a stock Android man.
[One (M7) General] CandyAndy:
If you are stock android man tell me how you conveniently got wifi, bt, etc shortcuts on the notification menu bar? It drives me nuts that there is none of those and still there is this completely useless battery saving option which can't get completely rid off. I have had this for about 4 days now and I am already planning to flash CM10.1.

Only good thing with Sense is that the weather app/widget is actually quite nice and so is the calendar app/widget. Other than that I haven't found many good things with this. Oh, Zoe is great too.
[One (M7) General] caysman:
Those who are happy with Sense, rock on.

But for those of us who love all the wonderful features of 4.2.2 with the galaxy nexus who want the mad speed of the One, who want to activate the camera without unlocking the phone, who enjoy the really well integrated logical sensible and beautiful Google stock interface, it'll be termination of HTC sense with the utmost contempt and good riddance.

Yes I hate Sense that much. I've been suffering for a month with it. Thank you all of you who made stock Android UI possible for the One. Sense is like windows 8 on a screaming laptop, maybe worse.

Google's UI rules, in part, perhaps due to Andy Hertzfeld's influence and Matias Duarte's work in redesigning Android. For HTC to smear these masters' work, is really like the woman who restored the painting of Jesus as an ape.

For God's sake, Sense contacts can't even share a contact via whatsapp. How retarded is that? Pui!
[One (M7) General] Will0827:
If a stock version of the one releases, i feel that a black version wont be included, been gone from the android scene for some time now in ios land, but would would you be able to flash the stock one onto the current devices ? Im on the verge of switching to tmobile and getting a one but i want it in black and going to buy an off contract phone from at&t.
[One (M7) General] zoltrix:
SO if and when this gets released, will this mean that the currently released sense versions will be able to go AOSP with offical roms as well?

If not then will AOSP roms become much easier to transport? Simple copy/paste?
[One (M7) General] Bonely:
Point to me a stable AOSP rom that is fully featured on the ONE RIGHT NOW. yeah... There are features I like from sense and there are features I like from AOSP. But if I had to pick one, I'd have to go towards AOSP for everything sense lacks. I have always been a fan of customization and if they could release the source for their essential hardware such as the camera that would be fantastic!
[One (M7) General] nookcoloruser:
A simple settings extended download would solve that. 4 days in and you'd flash to achieve something that takes 10 seconds ? :confused:

ok....

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.hb.settings&hl=en

So putting the camera in the dock, so that it is on the lock screen and you can go straight into it, is too hard to accomplish ?

[One (M7) General] hello00:
im pretty sure we can still flash aosp roms for the htc one google edition as it will come with the same hardware
[One (M7) General] franchise:
You could try this Rom. There are a lot of features and it's been stable. I havent tried everything as far as extra features and such on here because I like to run it stock but this has been a great Rom

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2290785
[One (M7) General] Bonely:
Thanks, going to hold off for now. All AOSP based roms still have some common issues. But they are getting better everyday. I'll probably jump on one again in about a month or 2.
[One (M7) General] franchise:
Sounds good. The main thing I was worried about was the camera, glad to say it works and well. I still flash back and forth from this to sense to see which I like better.
[One (M7) General] DonnieDoezoe:
Htc sense is better than the Google launcher tho
[One (M7) General] bubigrega:
What pile of ****.
[One (M7) General] caysman:
Sorry for the drama. Just in case HTC people read this thread, I need to represent those who hate Sense and awaken them to look beyond a community of people who IMHO inexplicably like sense.
[One (M7) General] Cryosx:
Hmm... imo stock Android 4.1.2/4.2.2 is downright ugly compared to sense 5. However I do like the new holo design (ie google now, new play store, new play music, etc.) and think it matches well with sense 5.
[One (M7) General] daleski75:
Either way it gives us choices and that's a good thing.
[One (M7) General] jcracken:
Settings Extended is nowhere near as powerful as 4.2 quick settings and I hate how in order to have an app that you can open from the lockscreeen it needs to be on the dock. I'd like to open flashlight from lockscreeen, but I don't want it to take up space on my dock.
[One (M7) General] timgreen123:
goode news. samsung galaxy s4 google edition and htc one google edtion is this means Google will not produce his own nexus device anymore?
[One (M7) General] blackroseMD1:
They'll still make them. These aren't Nexus devices, they're Google Experience devices. I'm sure we'll see the next Nexus device this Fall.
[One (M7) General] timgreen123:
who will make the next nexus device? LG or Motorola,
[One (M7) General] jcracken:
It's not likely to me Motorola, because when Google bought them there was a bunch of anti-monopoly stuff Google had to agree to, and Moto making the next Nexus phone reeks of anti-competitive practices.

[One (M7) General] hello00:
who would be selling their ones to get the GE?
[One (M7) General] cowmixtoo:
Time to get fitted for a tinfoil hat I guess..

:laugh:
[One (M7) General] lolrenx:
So if I understand correctly, this means that potentially AOSP roms will be able to leverage HTC drivers for OIS and IR Blaster ? Fanstastic news !
[One (M7) General] BenPope:
There's already an API for IR, I'm not sure if OIS is accessible from AOSP or requires a driver. We'll have to wait and see, but it would be strange for them to provide a crippled device, the camera needs OIS to be anything other than lame.
[One (M7) General] BodegaBay:
From all the tech blogs, I read it will support BOTH AT&T and T-Mobile. Then I was deflated to read from HTC's blog site that shows the specs missing 1700Mhz band. It only supports T-Mobile's 1900Mhz refarmed areas, not it's native AWS 1700Mhz band. Even in refarmed areas, the 1900Mhz HSPA+ signals are sketchy and scarce.

I'm disappointed HTC left out the 1700Mhz band for the GE.
[One (M7) General] BenPope:
The dev edition is just a replacement for AT&T, which, unusually, doesn't support dev unlock (although, last I heard, it does).

The US has a smorgasbord of LTE frequencies.

The worldwide variation of technology and frequency support in cellular technologies has exploded with 4G, it's a huge problem for manufacturers and consumers. I suspect it shall continue to get worse for some time to come. Gone are the world phones of yesteryear, if you want full support.
[One (M7) General] GSeeker:
Will the GE still have Beats Audio or Zoe? :confused:
[One (M7) General] radiotrib:
Those are proprietary so they won't be in the vanilla offering .. but they may be offered as add-in packages and there will certainly be devs on here who will be busting a gut to get the best bits out of the One software to build into the vanilla version.

Bring it on you gurus !!!
[One (M7) General] BodegaBay:
For the US, they should have taken the T-Mobile's version and used it for the UL, DE, and GE units. Instead, we have the AT&T version.
[One (M7) General] checksum123:

[One (M7) General] Kypt:

Where did you see that, paste the video/article here, pls! :victory:
[One (M7) General] cdordon:
That's AWESOME. No more cobjob beats copycat jobs for us. Does anyone think this means it'll be able to be used on other phones AOSP roms too or just ours?
[One (M7) General] radiotrib:
WOAH .. I missed that bit in the blog post at HTC .. apologies .. so if that's true it means that beats audio is now open to everyone ... unless it's buried in the HTC One device drivers.

<later>Nope .. it's not mentioned on the HTC site as having Beats, but I guess if Google says it will then maybe it will</later>
[One (M7) General] ObsessedChannel:
So does this mean that us current One owners can get it too?
[One (M7) General] BenPope:
Huh? Beats it's just a preset audio filter somewhere near an exaggerated "rock". There are plenty of apps that provide better audio filters.

Get over the marketing and use your ears.
[One (M7) General] joshuadjohnson22:
My question is what will they do about the camera.. will it just be a 4 megapixel or will it take control of the image chip...
[One (M7) General] waylo:
Exactly! (if the blog post is correct).

I expect all versions to be able to be flashed to whichever ROM you choose, so there's no reason for a T-Mobile customer to return theirs. The maintenance of an AOSP-version specific to the H1 will greatly aid those ROM chefs though, so hoorah!
[One (M7) General] swapven0m:
I agree with the person above..

The Camera is 4MP but is only made beautiful by the proprietary HTC algorithms and post processing.

Will stock android turn it into a normal 4MP camera?
[One (M7) General] radiotrib:
Correcting my previous post -

I just got it from HTC - it will have Beats Audio ... that will please a lot of people :)
[One (M7) General] jcracken:
I paid that guy his thanks for the wager. In fairness though, it seems like a lot of HTC execs didn't want it to happen because they thought sense was better--the MoDaCo article touches on this. The reason I thought it would never happen is because so many HTC employees liked Sense more than AOSP. I guess the side that would rather make more profit than make a message about how good Sense is won out in th eend.
[One (M7) General] Yellow-Snow:
therseye

amen
[One (M7) General] Currykiev:
While I am fully aware that beats is no more than an equaliser and marketing it IS beneficial when watching videos or YouTube through the phones speakers.

My question is, can you get any app that allows you to play with the equaliser at a system wide level without root? I will definitely root this phone in time but for now would like a root free option.

My guess is No.

Sorry for going slightly off topic. I do love how HTC are giving Samsung a run for their money. Samsung fans (some) are becoming so blinkered that they use everything Samsung does as an excuse to belittle the competition. HTC are doing an excellent job at reducing the ammunition these people have.
[One (M7) General] JustLiveIt:
Bottom line is HTC needs to get this phone into as many hands as possible and running stock Android is a great way to do that. Also, The One needs to match the hype the S4 is getting blow for blow as much as HTC can manage. Running stock Android will get The One a lot of exposure for very little investment on HTC's part. The device is awesome but unfortunately many people make choices based on what device they see the most in the media.
[One (M7) General] ataft:
So the phone is going up for sale cheaper than the S4. That should help get some more Ones out the door :D
[One (M7) General] XDA mark:
I dont understand the hate towards Beats Audio. One of the reasons I'm not going AOSP roms yet on my One, is no Beats Audio. Have you heard how the speakers sound without Beats Audio on? Turn on a song, leave it playing and turn off Beats Audio in settings. You will cry.

Anyway, happy the HTC One GE will come with Beats Audio. Hope they devs can use it for AOSP roms on our normal One's.

When beats is turned off, the equalizer doesn't go back to neutral levels, it actually lowers the bass and adds treble to make it sound way worse than it would at neutral levels.
