Officially - no you can't because HTC don't give a damn about this phone anymore.

Unofficially - yes, but it comes at a cost of bugs, knowing how to unlock your bootloader etc.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] eacridlic:
so its not advisable to do it? im asking because my actual rom has problems with the stock bluetooth and there are few roms out there for this model
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] camo_flage:
First, read and know what you are doing ( rooting, unlocking bootloader ) and make sure you know how to flash, nandroid with a cutsom recovery and please refer to the superguide for more info. I would advise this as long as you know what you are doing. It is near impossible to brick an Android permanatnly
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Bwyan Benton:
I didn't say not advisable, however what camo_flage stated is very correct. Know what your doing before you attempt.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] eacridlic:
well, thanks for answer :) what i want to do is to update from an android ice cram sandwish to a jelly bean version, the reason is because all the roms i have installed in the ice cream sandwich android have problems with either stock bluetooth or stock wi fi or something else, so i i want to install jelly bean so i can put roms for that version.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Bwyan Benton:
Weird cuz I have no issues with either on stock ics.

Anyways, maybe after you read a lot and watch a few videos on YouTube on flashing roms etc, you can try that borked rom. I personally haven't flashed any rom so I can't say what its like. I do know a lot of custom roms have a low in call volume, which is the main reason why I'm still on stock ics.

I've unlocked my bootloader, rooted my phone, removed a ton and I mean a ton of useless to me apps and currently have a ton frozen in testing. My phone flys!

Good luck!
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] rignfool:
As stated by others...

There is a metric ton of reading you must do...

Emphasis on MUST

You need to know how to undo the bootloops you are going to get...

I suggest reading the superguide... And do NOT use Hansoon's toolkit so you can learn what you are doing and not just click away on a mouse...
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] eacridlic:
thank you very much u have helped me a lot, i have much to learn i will read as crazy dude, thanks !! :D
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] eacridlic:
Thanks a lot, i will read in order to learn more than i know.nevertheless, could you tell me more about this superguide you´re talking about, or if possible can u give me a link? anyway thanks for the help i have to learn a lot ;)
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Bwyan Benton:
There is a sticky thread in the development section for the superguide. You can't miss it
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] eacridlic:
thank you very much dude, i will search for it :o
[General Questions and Answers] baySF:
Okay so I've tried Googling this and posting this question in another thread but couldn't find/get an answer, so I thought I'd try to get help here. Awhile ago I installed either a 4.2 or 4.1 ROM (I can't remember), but whichever one it was, the market would show apps that weren't compatible with my 4.0 ROM. Such as GTA Vice City, The Sims 3, NBA 2K, etc. I then flashed back to a 4.0 ROM later on and those apps disappeared again. Now that I'm back on a 4.2 ROM, its not showing those apps. I was wondering what I can do to get those apps to show up again so I'm not forced to get the APK off the web. I know they're compatible with my phone because I've played those games before and they ran perfectly. Can anyone help?
[General Questions and Answers] johnyvlad:
HY, you can try wipe google play cache ,and restart the apk ,it might work,but if it doesnt try download google play on the web .PLEASE PRESS THANKS IF I HELPED!!!!!!
[General Questions and Answers] dreamtheater17:
Are you sure that is the same 4.2 rom you use before? Maybe the app has been removed from the market temporarily. Use the Web play store to verify this. Good luck! :)
[General Questions and Answers] baySF:
Its not the same 4.2 ROM that I had before and the apps haven't been removed at all. This ROM uses vending.apk instead of phomesky.apk and maybe that's why? Not sure. Thanks for your suggestions though.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TiceMan:
I've searched everywhere. Does anyone know of a rom for Samsung Repp? One that might put either Honeycomb, ICS, JB on it? Tired of the 2.3 gingerbread.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Aaron_Woolery:
I downloaded Paranoid Android on my note 2 and installed the ROM and the Google apps. Now every time that i try to reboot it gets stuck in a boot loop. Nothing will fix it, I tried to fix permissions and clear the delvik cache and everything and nothing works. Thanks for any help.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] twanskys204:
Maybe factory reset after flash?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] TheFletch:
Or if you can get it into download mode you could use Odin via a PC and load another Rom or back to stock.

Sent from my Galaxy Note II
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] gregsarg:
I agree...

You likely have a dirty device with respect to caches or file structure....

The possibility of a corruption in the download is also possible...

But I'm leaning toward a dirty flash over other files that should have been cleaned prior to flashing the new rom...

Especially if coming from a TW based rom to AOSP...

The file structures are much different between the two...and full wipes are required...g
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] johntortorella:
This happened to me as well when switching to an AOSP rom.. Had to go back to stock with Odin.

I'm using N7100. I have rooted my device using Odin. But still i'm not able to upgrade my phone to 4.2.2. as after pressing volume up+ home button and power button.

It shows an error regarding some "signature".

[Firefox OS General] BitterAlmond:
The best I've found out there is a recommendation to "try teaching your toaster French." There seems to be a few hints out there that the Omnia 7 can be flashed at least to different versions of Windows Phone 7. Is there a working way to get Android onto the phone? If so, can this method be used to hack Firefox OS on there as well? The phone fits all the hardware recommendations for the OS, and we have a spare one floating around the office I thought I might try to flash it onto.

I've already taken a look at the wiki page for the phone and found the drivers and flashing utilities (tucked away in anonymous downloads in the sketchiest parts of the internet) mentioned there. What is the procedure for putting Android on a Windows Phone? Is there a build of Firefox OS that might work, or should I just set the Omnia aside for now, roll up my sleeves, and start helping with the B2G project on GitHub?
[General Questions and Answers] kuddo:
I already flashed my phone, using fastboot, with a custom ROM and rooted my phone so i'm not a total idiot (just half).

Could you please explain to me how to flash the JellySmart ROM from here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2287172

I do not understand how to flash A5 and A5-1 to my phone. Every ROM i looked at had lots of .img files, but this ROM has 2 parts (A5 and A5-1), each one with lots of folders, system files and only one .img file (boot.img).

Please enlighten me.
[General Questions and Answers] DhaAlekz:
Well, first of all, download both .zips and place them on the root of the SDCard. Don't extract the content of the zips. Then reboot into recovery and do a factory reset and format /system and /custpack from mounts and storage. Then go back and choose install zip from sd card and select the A5 one. After installing boot-up and then go back into recovery and flash the A5-1 zip. Boot-up and you`re done. :)
[General Questions and Answers] kuddo:

[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] ingenious247:
I didn't see one in here so I thought I'd create a thread.. just bought 2 HTC One's today for me and the wifey both. Coming from MyTouch 4G > Galaxy S2 > Galaxy Nexus > Galaxy S3 > Nexus 4 and now to the HTC One I have to say I am impressed with this phone. I actually like Sense 5 and the design of the phone as a whole is very nice. Not too fond of the app drawer yet but nothing that can't be changed by launcher of course.

Sound off about what you love or hate, just wanted to give us a thread to chat.

Oh and not having to hack my LTE into existence is nice.. (Nexus 4)

I have a feeling this forum is going to get more activity soon. This phone was a sleeper now people are waking up to the fact it's pretty much the best phone available. Opinions vary, of course.. but it's certainly making an impression on the tech sites and to the users.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] lojak29:
I've had left and came back to the one 3 times ...now

It is a very good phone sleek built well... Camera has had alot of time and money invested into the software and hardware aspects of it, thanks to HTC.

I think it's all about two things the look/build material and the camera

***Side note the HTC one ir blaster is Better than the s4, with this one it learns codes easier and also ...

I wanted to point out lol for the lazy folks

that like the remote function you can point this phone anywhere down sideways up ways behind you anywhere and it turns channels .

On the flipside the s4 has to be directed right at the tv or it's a no go...

That may seem petty to some , but I think its brilliant, who wants to lift a phone and point to get the job done .
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jethead102:
Help! I've tried running Unrevoked 3.22 as suggested in these forums to no avail, tried using different recoveries that members have suggested, and nothing I do can root this phone.

For the longest time, I had the OTA ICS update available but the phone wouldn't reboot and update. After I did a factory reset, it updated. The battery died a few days ago, and its back to GB for some odd reason and doesn't even register that there is an update available. Regardless, I can't get the dang thing rooted. I'm used to Motorola development, so please be patient with me as I'm still not familiar with the HTC procedures. Thanks!
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pons:
First off, what's happening? You say it won't root, but not saying how. As in, are you getting error messages, and if so, where?

What is your HBOOT version and are you S-ON or S-OFF? To get into HBOOT, completely turn off your phone. Power it on while holding VOL DOWN. Should now be in HBOOT.

This phone is easily rootable via the manufacturer. Setup adb, and then unlock your bootloader. Take a look at this site for help: http://www.htcdev.com/bootloader/

[General Questions and Answers] at45:
My shiny new PiPo U8 has terrible WiFi, and it can only see the router within a couple of metres. Things improved when I set the router to 5GHz. Before that it was around half.

The tablet is in an all metal chassis which seems like an oversight. However, I find it hard to believe the company would release a tablet with such poor wireless performance.

Is it likely that a firmware update could improve things? I think I've read of such things before.

Thank you
[General Questions and Answers] vinnyconsorte:
Do you have that problem only with that router? have you checked with another wifi source?

If you have landline wireless phones at 2.4ghz they can mess some wifi adapters as well, check that.

it can be due to a miss connection of the wireless antenna inside the device, there are many possible causes.

Also it can be related do kernel/driver issues on your device, that would be solved by some mods.
[General Questions and Answers] at45:
Same problem at work. Earlier all the guys with Android phones used WiFi Analyser to show the local WiFi networks. They each got over a dozen and the main one was at -90. My tablet got the same network one at -65 and no other networks. Turning the tablet could add or loose around 5 units.

I suspect it may be a badly connected or badly positioned antenna. I've been trying to find out how to open the tablet up in order to check. Apart from this major issue, it seems like a great device and a real bargain. Elsewhere online there are reports of very good WiFi performance with this tablet.
[General Questions and Answers] vinnyconsorte:
5 units as in network strenght or 5 units of visible APs?

You know that -65db is actually better than -90db right?

Check if your device is at 2.4ghz Wifi band, and not at 5Ghz as most of the public wifi router are 2.4ghz.
[General Questions and Answers] at45:
Yep, the antenna wasn't connected.
[General Questions and Answers] gixxer93001:
there's a setting on the phone which you can choose 2Ghz, 5Ghz and automatic. choose automatic.. if it doesn't work reset your modem and press the WPS.

Unfortunately some tablets are designed poorly where they impair WiFi/GPS/3G signals. A prime example is the Asus TF300 tablet.

Hmm, I've already answered this. Does no-one read topics any more?
[General Questions and Answers] evelhorn:
Hey at45, I also took my u8's back off tho check the antenna. It was connected and while the back was off it got great reception. Now to my question, just to be sure the antenna is the small co-axial cable coming from near the power button and going to the area by the speaker, correct? Also does anyone know where I could get a stick-on antenna that I could maybe mount on the back and connect to my antenna lead? I think this would turn this really good tablet into a great one.

I do realize you've already answered this, I was hoping for some insight on the external antenna notion I had
[General Questions and Answers] saladman:
For me wifi is medium to good - not as good as the laptop but not as cruel as some others described it - so there might be different versions.

If you're already as far as attaching an external antenna, why don't you cut out part of the cover and replace it with some nice piece of plastic? Might actually look better than an external antenna...

I dont think Amazon would be able to tell anything especially if the phone doesn't boot or do anything. Probably later on, I'm sure they will return it to Sony. Good luck with your new phone.. I personally don't like the GS4. Love my ZL.... Besides everyone on the street has a Samsung, you don't see many people with Sony phones. It sets you apart from the crowd.

dude you think just like me and the reason why i even had a zl is because of that reason. i love this phone more than the htc evo 3d i had and it was hard enough choosing between the iphone 5 htc one gs4 and the xperia z. i wanted a iphone 5 because it looked nice but that phone is SOOOOOOOOOOOOO BORING! its the same as every other iphone and the htc only had beats and thats basically the only thing i liked. i wanted a gs4 but i knew everyone would have that plastic phone. i now had to choose between the z and zl and i chose zl over z because it had an ir sensor and i THOUGHT it had a removable back but i was wrong. i like the all glass z and the water proof but i never got a phone wet so there really was no point in me getting it unless i knew i was just clumsy. i thought the zl could go past 1.5ghz and when i saw a youtube video of another phone going past its max ghz i thought ok maybe i just need a new kernal because stock wasnt cutting it but look where that got me. well thanks again and i hope you all NEVER have to go through what i went through.
