The N2 only sold/sells 15% of what the SGS3 did/does so the Max will probably sell in a similar percentage compared to the One. This is still the number one selling smartphone on the market and the iP5s is rumored to be an internal upgrade. It's the reason there's a SGS4 and One "Mini." The vast majority of my friends think the N2's size is ridiculous and would feel the same way about the OG Pro, One Max, and even more so the XZ Ultra.

That said, the One, with its high quality build and materials, is probably the most attractive Android alternative for the iFolks looking to make the switch. So, at least to me, an upgrade and the fresh publicity it would create in time for the holidays would be smart on HTC's part.
[One (M8) General] dlau77:
I can honestly say - the only reason I didn't upgrade my HOX to the HTC1, was because of the low megapixel camera and relatively poor battery life. If this so-called refreshed model addresses and corrects these issues (bigger battery and an 8MP camera), I will be purchasing it.
[One (M8) General] kayone73:
So HTC should decide their product marketing for the sake of the Internet community? Im not sure they teach that in business school...
[One (M8) General] io53:
Not saying it would be bad for them, or that they should listen to the 0.1% that hang out on xda. Just saying that multiple flagships a year affect our community negatively.
[One (M8) General] barondebxl:
I have to disagree Barry, the one x+ was a flop, not a worthy upgrade. If HTC does a One +, the changes would be internal and we all know the average consumer doesn't care about gigs of Ram or CPU clock speeds. What they care about is storage, display, design. If there's a One+, it'll have the same display, design and maybe only come in a 64gig flavor but that is already available. I don't see HTC releasing a One+ with 128GB of storage. So basically it'll be upgraded in CPU, once again, something the average consumer does not care about. In day to day usage, I don't think there will be a HUGE difference between an HTC One using the S600 vs s800 unless it's gaming or benchmarks.

On the other hand if HTC releases something like the one max, it'll be a somewhat a different product and plenty of folks would be interested including myself who is already an HTC one owner. That's the way I see it. I don't think an HTC one refresh is going to sell more than an HTC One max because the refresh would be way you similar to the original and not worth the upgrade which would definitely be more expensive on and off contract.

Off topic: I just switched to LTE for the first time ever 20 minutes ago and WOW :eek::eek::eek::eek: lightning fast!!!!!!
[One (M8) General] crackalak:
Maybe the components will be made smaller and they could fit a micro sd card slot in, getting a 32gb phone and having over 8gb of storage used up before installing any apps is depressing
[One (M8) General] kayone73:
I think internet solidarity is 1. Highly overrated and 2. A near impossibility anyway.

So to argue against product diversification for that reason makes little sense to me.

Fractioning and splintering into sub groups and disagreeing w each other over stupid differences of opinion is inherent in human nature. HTC restricting the number of flagship phones it releases in a product cycle will not change our nature and behavior, im sure you'll agree w that.
[One (M8) General] Rage1ofakind:
iPhone releases every year. People know that and are more hyped for it as they know if the get the 7 it'll last them a year at least (etc).

Doing yearly upgrades is much better than doing 1 and a half every year. Lowers the value of the phone when a better version is released in the same year.
[One (M8) General] barondebxl:
If the rumors are true, Apple will release a low budget iPhone alongside the regular iPhone. That makes 2 devices released in one year as well for Apple....
[One (M8) General] kayone73:
Resale value? Really? You want so badly to hold onto an extra $50-100 dollars in potential resale value and this kind of product release cramps your style?

Does it show in the tone of my voice that saving the extra $50-100 in resale value so I can afford the next phone without putting a huge strain on my yearly spending budget, isn't really a top priority concern?

[One (M8) General] sauprankul:
Hopefully HTC will learn from its mistakes.

- 4MP isn't good enough, even if the low light performance is significantly better.

- Build quality/QC needs to be improved. Recessed power buttons, gaps, overhang, and dead pixels are crazy!

- Reparability needs to be improved. My phone bricked itself. I sent it in, they charged me $200 (I'm OK with that). Well, they're the pros! They know what they're doing right? Nope. My phone came back covered in scratches that I can prove HTC made, and my initially perfect power button was replaced with one that is recessed 1mm IN the phone.

- Capacitive buttons suck. Seriously, swipe up/double tap? Really? Hopefully HTC will do what many other phones are doing and adopt on screen buttons (and extend the display to fill in the capacitive button panel)

Other than that, a standard spec update will keep this company's head out of the water.
[One (M8) General] arknailed7754:
Loved my one when I had it...though be real..the camera is crap. So sold it went back to my one x. All they should do is wack on standard 13mp or 15mp. I had no issue with battery though dont know what you lot are on about. I'm a heavy user and it lasted well
[One (M8) General] ChanceOfChange:
well if my wishes can be true i wanna a real metalic phone without plastic anymore!

even better dual speakers!

at least 8mp ultra pixel go go power ragers camera

and a sdcard slot for jesus shake!

htc needs to be hear the customers i buyed 4 htc ones... the forth is awsome none manifactured problem at all!

the 3 ones before was a total disaster with no good cut plastic at round body big gaps no zero at all and the best dead pixels... come 740 for this? sammy does kinda the same with R&D quality but we pay and we take.....just balls quietly bigys!
[One (M8) General] kayone73:
Learn basic principles of digital photography and image sensor capture, increasing MP count on a tiny phone camera sensor does NOT improve image quality and capture, it simply allows you to blow up an image to a larger size print. It does nothing for IQ, dynamic range, low light performance with low noise at high ISO values.

The escalating MP arms race is a byproduct of customer ignorance and their assumuption that a larger number is better. I actually respect HTC for bucking thar trend.

Omg...should i wait till Christmas for S 800 and 8 ultrapixel?
[One (M8) General] sauprankul:
Never will this come true. Metal isn't RF transparent, which means you won't get a signal if the phone is all metal. It would be cool though...
[One (M8) General] ChanceOfChange:
i know m8 just a dream! and as we know this wont happend maybe i love again the pastic of one x feels kinda lighter and no easy crachy! hehe
[One (M8) General] miillaaad:
good news

just HTC
[One (M8) General] arknailed7754:
Thanks for your info chap. I know this though. Lets put this another way. I had a Sony k850i with a 5 mp onboard that still blows the one out the water plus if your like me it's nice to zoom into pics. It's my preference. Thanks for the wise words though I'll hold them close
[One (M8) General] Fille84:
But if you're so in love with zooming you should never bought a 4MP phone in the first place.... For people who doesnt give a **** when it comes to zooming it takes pretty good pictures to show up on a computer screen or even a big hdtv screen.
[One (M8) General] kayone73:
Digital zooming on camera phones is awful tho, not sure why you would want to use that in the first place.
[One (M8) General] arknailed7754:
No what I mean. Is after I've taken a photo you can zoom into the picture with the one it just goes blurry. I like zooming in on people's faces etc lol. Excuse my attitude on the last post I'm tired
[One (M8) General] kayone73:
Ah to avoid confusion, the proper term to use is 'cropping' which describes what you're describing. Yes that's another main advantage to high MP. One can be sloppy with composition and later crop the final image to whatever they like without too much detail loss.

Sent from my HTC One
[One (M8) General] Bigjim1488:
I'll be passing on that one! Get it, that one. No but seriously I do love the HTC one but I don't know if I will be getting another HTC phone. Disappointed by build quality (took me 3 tries to get a good one) and a terrible camera.
[One (M8) General] Tachi91:
People always complain then you see them on that device forum talking about how their phone just shipped/arrived. Anyways

I like the one and I understand that like everything that comes out of a factory in mass production it will have problems wether it's casing or the inners.

But so far all preordered phones Ive received have nothing wrong with them, probably since I don't ***** about the product before hand.

So if this is true which it might be and a improved HTC one comes out I will be interested. I like the design the button layout is stupid but it's grown on me. The camera is fine for a phone, like I said ON A PHONE it's fine.. if I want stupid detailed glorious pictures I'll go buy a dslr since that's what their made for.

If a Windows Phone similar to the one comes out before hand then that's what I'll be rocking.
[One (M8) General] jaaystott:
Not really, no. Take into consideration that they are releasing the HTC One Maxx (if this ever comes) then they would be playing the same game as Samsung. So far, the GS4 LTE-A is limited to Korea, much like the quad-core 4G GS3. There is no need for HTC to refresh the One, just do what Samsung normally does, release a phablet flagship, a 'phone' flagship, and a mini-phone flagship, then color those *****es over the year to keep tempting people. :good:

[One (M8) General] HtcOneJon:
Having also owned a K850i, which by the way was a downgrade from the K810i in the camera department despite the megapixel count, that blew out people's faces with the flash on, I have to refute your statement. It was Sony's worst Cybershot camera phone they did. HTC One blows it away and doesn't even need the flash.

Reporting In... I'm the one who voted +1 through disqus @AP when artem asking jazz ruby for this neat app...

Had been using ApkSpy for months, though it was out-dated and little buggy..

Some suggestion for the app:-

> It would be more feasible to use drag and drop instead of dialog to load apk.

> Add support %pattern% renaming for apk.

Is it possible to have APK-Info as a shell extention for apk files?

I mean have a tab with all the informations about the apk on right-click properties menu of every .apk file :)

Thanks a lot.

[Android General] jazzruby:
Hey guys, sorry I've been 'missing' from this thread and thanks for the replies.

To be clear, my original intentions regarding APK-Info was only to bring it up to date, i.e. SDK/API levels, GUI usability mods and strings, etc...

To be honest, APK-Info could use some further development and I might continue with that (but no guarantee).

Anyway, I will continue to update to newer SDK/API levels, OS versions, etc...

With that said, I've updated APK-Info to include the latest:

API level 18

Android 4.3

[Android General] fma965:
yes, no time to look in to this yet although couldn't u just set all .apk files to open with this, wouldn't that work the same?

or you want it in the normal properties window?
[Android General] provolinoo:
yes, it works and it's the workaroud I'm using right now...

I just find the "tab in properties window" more... elegant :)

Moreover it would be useful to have an installer for apk-info to properly set to open all apk files with the app during installation :)

Some bugs in ver0.7g

1.If the apk's name contains double byte characters(unicode id > 256), "Application" & "New Name" shows garbled words.

2.Apk's icon cannot resize to fix the program's UI, so, many apks's icon cannot complete display.

3.The "Features" frame shows nothing from ver 0.7(mod), no matter what apk is loaded.

4.If one apk was loaded in apk-info, then click browse to choose another apk, the former apk's icon is kept, it could not be replace by the latter icon.

5.How to add version code(build code) to "New Name" by apk-info automatically? Can apk-info support regular expression?

I asked to first post owner to update the first post with latest builds.

The current builds in first post has many features missing and some bugs (vs. current latest builds).

But the first post owner didn't answer here (also just say "no thanks").

I decide to stop the development of this utility (also if I think that the program could be useful) because there is no sense to continue if the the owner of first post has no intention to maintain it updated.

I cannot open a new thread for the new version without the acceptance of first post owner.

With theese conditions there are no options for the future.
[Android General] Borizzz:
[MENTION=637263]bovirus[/MENTION], it's not a problem at all.

You can start a new thread of APK-Info fork. There is no need to ask author since he released sources to community. First author was ZoSTeR from Total Commander Forum. Jazzruby was first updater. You are second updater. All is OK.

Or we can ask moderators to edit first post of this thread.

Please read carefully the latest 10 pages of the thread.

The version that you used it' s quite old and is not the right start point.

We updated several times the tool to include new features and many new options (as many languages).

If you want to make some modifications you should start from the latest version available that we published (v. 0.7i). Otherwise you lose all our improvements.

And is not the right way in a collaboration way where any new version should start from the latest available before to avoid to lose any new feature.

The latest available is not 0.7. It's 0.7i.

Please start from this version and apply your changes.

..

[MENTION=2805755]jazzruby[/MENTION]

Please update the first post as you can because otherwise some user that didn't read carefully latets post (that should always read before to start changes), can believe that the latest version is the version posted in first post (0.7) instead the real latest version available (0.7i)

[MENTION=2777334]TKruzze[/MENTION]

You didn't read latest post, and posted a modification based on a version of many moths ago, ignoring and destroying our job and deleting our time spent to improve the tools.

Before to start a modification you should read fine the latest post.

You cannot ignore the clear policy of a collaboration job where any new version should start from latest version available (to avoid start from new or lose feature).

Otherwise anyone can decide himself to create anything and deleting other improvements.

Is not necessary to remove your work.

You can start your changes from latest version available (0.7i) apply your changes and repost your version (ex. 0.7k).

We do it in this way for any previous version.
