[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Kraizk:
INTERNATIONAL variants are receiving their 4.2.2 updates.No one in the states has an official build or a leaked US build last I checked. The bulk of international carriers used GSM. These devices differ from the U.S. GSM devices but in most cases can easily be chopped up and hacked to be put on U.S. variants (see AT&T one x+ for proof that it does not always work....).

HTC is a company NOT based in the U.S. and we are NOT their primary source of income therefore we are not their top priority. Additionally U.S. Carriers have MUCH more control compared to international carriers and are usually the cause of a hold up on official updates. Complaining we don't have a leak means HTC and the carriers are doing their job stopping untested and un proven builds from entering the hands of users,

Being on a CDMA phone that is NOT on verizon as of yet it is impossible to have much hope of leaks or work for the devices as we are on the #4 carrier in the United States (or #3 depending how you want to look at it). In many phones cases we get the GSM version ported only as long as it is simple to do for the developers.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] :
Do keep in mind though that Sprint, while #4 in size has traditionally only been a step or so behind GSM carriers, especially when compared to Verizon, in releasing their updates. Little Yellow tends to beat Big Red in that regard by comfortable margins.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] mackentosh:
GSM's have all the fun
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] CNexus:
Definitely. Sprint has been on top of updates. The only reason we see delays is because it's not a one-sided thing, the carrier AND manufacturer have to work together on it.

Let us also not forget that the EVO 4G LTE received Jelly Bean over a month (maybe two) before the AT&T One X. Just saying.

you can never predict htc and their ways
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Tilde88:
Not even close to being close to the same phone.

Also, everyone should nkow that GSM is an old outdated technology. CDMA is newer and better. The only downside is you would need the Qualcomm SoC (forget which one but the ELTE has it), like that you can do SVD. But GSM is just plain horrible, and old. Yes, Sprint has had issues for the passed three years (isolated ones, nothing major). But you need to remember that Sprint has always been the first for everything. They took a huge hit back with the whole Clearwire, WiMax, GPS + airplanes issue. They fixed the issue, and we have had to suffer a slight loss of 3G bandwidth due to it.

They are once more becoming the first with yet another feat, the Netwok Vision upgrade. All frequencies... One band. I mean, if you guys could understand the complexity (and sheer AWESOMENESS) of what is being done, you wouldn't give a crap that you are down one revision of one OS, 4.1.2 -> 4.2.2 ... Big whoop. The only thing getting that upgrade means is you can put new widgets in new places? And no source for kernel dropped? Which even when the source drops, bluetooth will be broken. That takes alot of time from the devs to cook in working bluetooth after theyve been giving a borked copy of the source. So now, put those last bits together... As the kernel is where the party is at. 4.2.2? BIG WHOOP. 4.2.2 with stock kernel... I would rather be on ICS with Anthrax.

Stop crying/worrying/wondering/caring/w-e about the update... Just download an app that does whatever you need from 4.2.2, and enjoy. And yes, there is an app to do whatever you may need... There's an app for that.

In the off-chance that somehow there is no app for it (there will be an app for it), learn to make an app, and make the app alert you of things you want done, but there are no apps for it yet. By the time you get that app out, we will be on Sprint 4.2.2 Sense5, custom kernel, and still the same fracking radio.img! (A new radio is the only thing I can see as an upgrade for this phone).

[Sprint HTC One (M7)] the.emilio:
I just want the kernel so we can run the GE. Love sense but love simplicity too. And before anyone links to an aosp Rom or CM... I mean something fully functional with everything working AS IT SHOULD. :D
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Kraizk:
You misunderstood. I am not blaming Sprint. I am saying we are not HTC's top priority.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] jcwxguy:
You make it sound like Verizon is a GSM carrier which they are not
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] BrianBaker:
I said it once and I'll say it again.....

New Radio is all that matters to me. If 4.2.2 comes with it then that's great but the radio is what I seek and will determine if I move on.. So I too want this update ASAP.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Super Tommy:
nedirinc the

You realize LTE is the progression of GSM? Where did you get your information CDMA is a superior technology. Qualcomm abandoned their extension of CDMA into the 4G realm. I'm pretty sure you're misinformed.

What Sprint is doing with their NV upgrades is good, but I can assure you CDMA isn't where you want to be.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] :
Same for you: I'm not saying you're blaming Sprint either, but noting alternative reasons the update is a bit delayed.

Thank you for the news flash? I'm pretty sure that the people reading this thread know enough about the carriers to not be confused by that post.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Kraizk:
Your comment about GSM being outdated and inferior to CDMA is probably one of the most ludicrous claims I have ever seen.... Especially when LTE we all want so badly is based off of this technology and is REQUIRED for it to work.... Hence the added SIM cards in Sprint and Verizon phones.... That single fact alone makes your comment flat out wrong.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] OMJ:
so how would you feel if u knew a member of this forum DID have the 4.2.2 Sprint leak, but was just sitting on it???

[MENTION=4457281]hawknest[/MENTION] claims he has had the leak since last week...why he's not sharing, who knows...maybe it's BS
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] benny3:
Well that sux. it would be nice to check it out.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] :
There's not really a reason to sit unless you are employed by HTC, in which case that bit about personal signing of each build is pretty nasty.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] TMartin:
There are many reasons to sit on it if you aren't an employee of HTC. That signature might not point back to you but could point to the person that you received it from. Most of the people who frequently supplied us leaks in the past would build relationships with people to obtain what they would share. You can't break that trust. It can only be leaked when it is said to be okay.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] :
I probably should have clarified as to what I meant about personal signing to encompass that. My error.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] BrianBaker:
I can wait..im a patient kind of man..But if this "person" could tell us there is in fact a radio update i'd be a happy man.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] jaytv:
I can almost guarantee the One will have new radio firmware. The One is one of the first phones with a dual tuned antenna array and the first Android phone I'm aware of to have this. Do you think perhaps that they have learned quite a bit about how to tune the antennas with software?

I'd be shocked if it didn't, really...
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] BrianBaker:
Man,i'm just shocked they haven't adjusted something by now to be honest with you...Coming up on month 3 with a phone I have to leave in CDMA mode in Florida as a driver for any kind of stability on the network data wise...I wouldn't be surprised if their just sitting on their thumbs and even though we may get a radio update it wont improve a damn thing...Im just wanting the chance of something getting better.

[Sprint HTC One (M7)] eXplicit815:
Please, correct me if I'm wrong. And if you do, please provide some sort of documentation. But I'm pretty sure the AT&T One X and the EVO LTE are the exact same phones. The only big difference between the two is radios. Small differences are the bigger battery, SD card slot, casing, and kickstand.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] raptoro07:
The EVO LTE was the made-for-Sprint Variant of the HTC OneX. You are correct. :)
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] CNexus:
You are correct. And also that bluetooth is bound to the RIL on the Evo LTE and on the One X it's not.

Other than that, they're the exact same phone.

here is some good reading on the gsm/cdma war.

http://www.hardwaresecrets.com/article/Which-Technology-is-Better-GSM-or-CDMA/151
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] eXplicit815:
The US version of the One X uses the Qualcomm chipset.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] raptoro07:
Yep......Tegra 3 and 4 do not have LTE. The new Tegra 4i (I think it is called) has LTE.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Kraizk:
The ONE X+ begs to differ....
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] raptoro07:
You're right. The ONE X+ has a Tegra 3+ which has an optional LTE modem attached. The Tegra 3+ and 4 have this option, while the new Tegra 4i will be the first Nvidia SOC with integrated LTE modem. That is what I was thinking of.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] mhoss48:
The One X+ has the same CPU as the One X but it has a different GPU (ULP G-force vs ULP G-force 2)
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] eXplicit815:
We're comparing these because I mentioned that the EVO 4G LTE received Jelly Bean before the One X did on AT&T. Those two phones are IDENTICAL. We're not talking about anything else. The unbranded One X had a Tegra chipset. The AT&T One X (along with the EVO 4G LTE) had the Snapdragon.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] CNexus:
That's incorrect. Nvidia and Qualcomm are not even remotely the same.

Sent from my S3 on Sense 5 (you jelly?)
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Kraizk:
............ Did you even read who and what I responded too?
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] :
It's correct if that poster is comparing the international variants, which I strongly suspect is the case.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] raptoro07:
lol..... ;)
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] mhoss48:
Am talking about the tegra 3 versions :)
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] CNexus:
Except...no. The One X+ is the Tegra version, and we were talking about US One X phones to begin with.

Then that's still inaccurate. The Tegra versions use Tegra (gasp) which is made by Nvidia. The HTC One X for the US uses Snapdragon, which is made by Qualcomm.

Sent from my S3 on Sense 5 (you jelly?)
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] mhoss48:
Both have tegra versions (international) :banghead::p
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] :
Thanks for playing, please try again. : http://www.gsmarena.com/htc_one_x-4320.php

The One X wasn't an enormously popular handset to begin with, but the international variant was sometimes used on US GSM carriers. All the poster was noting was that while the One X (unbranded) and One X+ shared the same processor, they had different radio hardware.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] numus:
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.... Oh wait... You do know LTE is based on GSM, right? LTE has some base in UMTS (W-CDMA) but a lot more in GSM and HSPA (which are both not CDMA)... CDMA is an old, outdated technology that has no real future as of now.

Not 100% true... LTE is a fusion of GSM and HSPA (with a little UTMS (W-CDMA) added in).

As for NV, it has nothing to do with CDMA.. It has to do with converting base stations from purpose built racks, to a modular rack (which is easy to upgrade). Also replacing copper with fiber to the antenna (increase SNR). NV is a huge project that Sprint is working on to beat everyone next round.

With NV, when they finally start to implement CDMA (and hopefully LTE although the HTC One doesn't support it) on the 800 mhz SMR frequency (which they have tons of thanks to the purchase of Nextel and the dismantling of the IDen network), all they have to do is drop in the module to transmit over 800 mhz (which is just as easy as putting a 1U into a server rack).
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] ThePhoneGeek:
Ok so I think we've beat the CDMA vs GSM thing to death.

As for 4.2.2 the blame to HTC only goes as far as them releasing the code to the carriers which happened weeks ago. We can always say it should have happened sooner, etc but it is what it is.

At this point it is up to each carrier to test it with their network and they'll release it on their schedule.

The GSM releases you've seen to this point all (I believe) involve international unbranded devices. Any that are carrier specific haven't received the update yet and the unbranded developer editions in the US haven't either.

The GSM devices will always get updates first because that is the predominant technology world wide. If there were unbranded dev editions that were CDMA based then we'd probably have a base leaked by now...

^^^This. +1 :thumbup:

[Sprint HTC One (M7)] :
Update is supposed to go live in the UK shortly. Given it's up in Europe and then went to the United Kingdom, I'd say the direction those updates are moving is pretty clear. Next up will be Canada, and then...wait, that would make Russia after that. :P

In all seriousness, hopefully we'll start seeing this stuff come stateside soon.

[Sprint HTC One (M7)] eXplicit815:
For the record, since I just noticed this, yes. I did see who you responded to. But you're not understanding that we weren't talking about the One X+, just the One X.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Kraizk:
Ok let me fill you in here because you clearly did not actually read. I simply responded to the claim that the Tegra 3 and Tegra 4 did not support LTE which raptoro07 (the person I replied to and was having the "conversation" with) clearly understood. I could not care less if the Jewel was "the same as the x except a bunch of things that make it different"
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] eXplicit815:
You must not be familiar with the product line then. The One X (AT&T) and the EVO 4G LTE (Sprint) are exactly the same on the inside, which is the point I was making in the first place. The original statement that I made that started this whole thing was that the EVO 4G LTE got Jelly Bean before the One X on AT&T. I further explained that they're identical phones, but the EVO has added features (SD Card, Kickstand, larger battery). Someone then stated, because they clearly didn't understand what I was saying, that the One X had a Tegra chipset, and they were quickly corrected. Your discussion about the One X+ is way out of left field because that model phone wasn't even brought up. GG though.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Kraizk:
Let me break it down Barney Style for you. Person A said the Tegra chip did not support LTE. Person B (in this case me) informed him the One X+ was both tegra and LTE compatible. Comparing the 4G LTE to the One X is something I could care less about as HTC clearly treated it as an entirely different phone the the One X.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] OMJ:
just when I thought this useless argument was over.....*sigh*
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] raptoro07:
Although the One X outside of the US had a Tegra chip. The AT&T One X and Sprint EVO 4G LTE had Qualcomm chips for US LTE bands.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] eXplicit815:
Right, which is what I was trying to explain to this guy. He seems to be getting upset because I'm telling him that he came out of left field with the One X+ specs when we were comparing the US One X and the EVO LTE.

Regardless, it is a stupid argument as OMJ suggested. Not sure why it's resulted to this, but I guess some people just don't understand things when they're said over a message board.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Kraizk:
Insert witty come back here. I've lost interest in dealing with tools. This entire thread is pointless anyways.

2 hours is enough. At some point it will try to boot. Then put it in flashmode and flash with Flashtool the ROM. Do not try to power it on. Wait,it will try to boot by himself.

Don't charge him from pc. Use wall socket.
