Have you tried the ir blaster yet?
[One (M7) General] gunnyman:
I don't see anything in 4.3 about ir blaster support. Nothing in settings nor do I see an app.
[One (M7) General] DroidRC1:
There's apps in the play store
[One (M7) General] gunnyman:
good point

Ok I downloaded a remote app and turned on my webcam and I see pulses in the power button/blaster window. So It looks like IR works
[One (M7) General] NJGSII:
That's good news can't wait to get it on my phone.
[One (M7) General] DroidRC1:
That will be the biggest they I wanted ...could you try to get it really working ...like on a TV
[One (M7) General] gunnyman:
Not tonight.

I'm out.

EDIT..

Pointed it at a sony tv. It turned off when I pressed the button IR works.
[One (M7) General] DroidRC1:
No problem thanks for downloading the app and seeing tho
[One (M7) General] gunnyman:
check my edit. :D
[One (M7) General] DroidRC1:
Just did thanks!!
[One (M7) General] Xaroc8:
There was a couple rumours flying around that the Camera was going to be a little better this time around. Is it any better, or basically the same as 4.2 GE?

Also, is the audio fixed in 4.3? In 4.2 the beats toggle in the sounds conflicted with the equalizer in Google Music and the sound just was never as good as Sense versions.

Darn, no swiping up on the home button to get to Google Now like on 4.2.2 with Sense 5?
[One (M7) General] dryspuri:
People please tell me which app for checking ir blaster
[One (M7) General] nxt:
Damn it, I really wanted that. I can't stand Sense, and I still have my old Nexus4 and I loved swipping up from home for Google Now.
[One (M7) General] gunnyman:
download any free ir blaster program from the play store. point the phone at something.

if you point it at a webcam you'll see the ir pulse.
[One (M7) General] dryspuri:
hate these big icons

IR works, but there is no decent app for HTC one, there is very nice app for samsung galaxy 4 though!

---------- Post added at 07:40 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:39 AM ----------

Does any one know if samsung also has similar conversion method as htc one
[One (M7) General] nxt:
Someone install the remote app from the stock sense 5 htc one and see if it works.
[One (M7) General] HRodMusic:
brother, how do i get 4.3? mind guiding me in the right direction.
[One (M7) General] gunnyman:
make sure you're stock Google edition then wait
[One (M7) General] HRodMusic:
does that mean i need to fully convert my phone to GPE? or just flash a google edition rom, i feel so noob hahah

my apologies thanks for helping!
[One (M7) General] HRodMusic:
looks like a huge process, im just gonna have to wait =(
[One (M7) General] dryspuri:

Only thing that is keeping me from switching to the GE is the TV app. Theres nothing in the google play store that comes close.
[One (M7) General] devinthomas:
I read from a couple reports that the fancy new Virtual Surround Sound would be active on all devices with stereo speakers. Can anyone confirm or deny any difference on their updated device?
[One (M7) General] xcesivemastub8ah:
There's already a flashable .zip in the ROM section. Devs here are quick.
[One (M7) General] Xaroc8:
yes, the sound is greatly improved since GE 4.2, no more tinny sound. The previous sound issues was caused by the Beats toggle conflicting with the built in equalizer of Google, but it's all good and sounds amazing now. I also notice the overall volume is much louder than before too.

I can also report that Picasa Sync and Photosphere are all working fine. Photosphere is fixed in 4.3 as well, as in 4.2.2 is was horrible and had overlapping errors when sticking the pictures, but now it smooths out much better.
[One (M7) General] graffixnyc:
I noticed that some of the htc framework files that were present in the 4.2.2 build are not in 4.3. It seems like more of a proper build and less of a Frankenstein build
[One (M7) General] dryspuri:
well I know that, I am saying this should be an option in stock rom, as few of us dont want to root!!

---------- Post added at 01:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:01 PM ----------

guys does any of you know is there similar conversion procedure as given by [MENTION=3537886]graffixnyc[/MENTION] in galaxy s 4, wanted to pick one for wife!
[One (M7) General] redbull123:
It's the app developers fault the black bar is there in the first place, they need to update their apps. HTC are just following the new Google guidelines.
[One (M7) General] Aerys:
Can someone provide me the direct link for the OTA from the google servers?
[One (M7) General] pr0x2:
Also 4.3 has "trim" something PC uses for ssd hard drives. The nexus 7 became so slow because the flash memory was not properly removed and overwritten.
[One (M7) General] bobsie41:
Including the xda developers app. :(
[One (M7) General] gunnyman:
Can anyone verify if Virtual Surround is there? Our speakers sound pretty damn good without it, but I was just wondering.

I didn't see any settings for it anywhere.
[One (M7) General] altimax98:
Hell yes it is and its amazing.... stock 4.2.2 Sense had a form of it due to the dual speakers but this made it awesome.

Go to YouTube and type Nexus Surround. Click the first video (Google demo video) and listen.. its pretty amazing.
[One (M7) General] gunnyman:
That is damn cool.

thank you. :)
[One (M7) General] antifish:
At least the IR Blaster now works with 4.3 GE!

Try the OTRTA app if you can life with a "not so beautiful" app for controling your IR devices
[One (M7) General] XirXes:
One of the first things I tried was Sixaxis. It worked completely, paired through OTG and everything. HTC has also already uploaded the new kernel sources too. We've got some good stuff ahead of us for AOSP.
[One (M7) General] EvilStevious:
Viewing the metadata of media via MTP now actually returns back correct and useful information. I'm stunned. I now have nothing left to ***** and moan about with my One. I guess... I am happy? I don't know how to react to this! :laugh:

Notification LED wonky

anyone else having issues with notification LEDs ? in apps that let me change LED colour (e.g. whatsapp) notification LEDs triggers in other apps like gmail it does not ?
[One (M7) General] mikeyinid:
They didn't fix the proximity sensor in calls. Still hitting all teh buttons with my face.
[One (M7) General] gunnyman:
Mine works fine now but was broken before.
[One (M7) General] mikeyinid:
I'm traveling and have made several calls since updating. I'm still having the issue. Definitely
[One (M7) General] makbil:
Smart Remote for HTC One. Works perfectly with the Sense ROM, probably should work in 4.3 as well.

---------- Post added at 10:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:59 PM ----------

Mike should have a 4.3 GE ROM ready tonight. You can flash that if you want to try out 4.3 easily on One.
[One (M7) General] crea78:
Any good app to use on our phone?
[One (M7) General] kayone73:
My proximity sensor also worked fine on GE 4.2.2 as well, not sure why yours was having problems then and now

Sent from my HTC One Sinless ver 2.8 Google Edition rom
[One (M7) General] mikeyinid:
The issue I'm speaking of may not be the proximity sensor, but its a known issue on the GE 4.2.2 build. When in call buttons get pushed. Im not sure the screen even has to be on for it to happen
[One (M7) General] FayezZ:
Could somebody comment on the "vibration intensity change"? I actually like how strong the vibration is on the One (it can actually be felt AND heard); it was pathetically weak on my Nexus 4 even after using an app to tune it to 100% strength.
[One (M7) General] The Project:
I dont think the issue is the proximity sensor, the device dims properly so it detects it fine. The problem is that the screen doesnt "lock" and you can still hit buttons even while the screen is dimmed/ against your face...
[One (M7) General] Aerys:
It feels a little weaker. But I love it =]
[One (M7) General] giorat23:
I prefeer all day use a Sense based rom like ARHD 12.1 with nova launcher,xposed framework and mods.....turn to 4.3 ge and loose all the Sense awesome functions no way..;)
[One (M7) General] gunnyman:
and this is on topic in what way?

If you aren't running 4.3 GE why post?
[One (M7) General] totriz:
one thing I noticed:

charging seems less picky about the charger/cable you use.

the 4.2.2 rom recognized my car charger as a usb connection (slow charge, so it discharged when plugged & using gps)

the 4.3 rom shows my car charger as an AC charger and charges faster (no more discharge when using gps!)
[One (M7) General] The Project:
I'm also noticing much faster

On a normal Sense ROM and on the 4.2.2GE ROM, the vibration intensity was 2700 in trickster mod. Now it is 2000 on 4.3GE.

[One (M7) General] The Project:
Yeah, it is much softer now. Feels weird, but I like how it will help save battery when I'm doing a lot of typing.
[One (M7) General] hd2joel:
That is the most mundane change log I have ever seen. The fact that even mentioned larger recovery fonts shows how much they were fishing. I'll stick with sense 5 & if they would have never put out a Sense less version they wouldn't need the IR remote, improved audio ect. They would all ready have it. Sence 5 is a core set of features not just a skin as many have found out. It's not the HTC One M7 without Sense 5, it's not the phone being praised everywhere & winning all the comparisons. It's not the phone that will go down as the best Android phone in history without Sense 5. It's just a nexus 4 with HTCs build quality. Full stop.
[One (M7) General] :
I think it's great for people that like stock Android like me. It's actually usable now.

Plus, there is less of the HTC framework in the 4.3 update. The 4.2.2 GE ROM was a bit last minute scrapped together, which is why those audio updates and stuff are needed in the 4.3 update. Also, the actual 4.3 update itself isn't much to begin with; some graphics improvement, TRIM support, and better multiuser on tablets.

[One (M7) General] altimax98:
I tend to disagree with the last statement you made. There are a number of huge improvements under the hood of this thing. IMO with a few small bugs withstanding it is the best Android version to date. Notification Listener, and a few others being the outstanding ones. Underneath its so much more buttoned up. Every device I own (RAZR, Galaxy Nexus, N7 (2012), N10, HTC One) running 4.3 has had significant performance improvements. TRIM is the Android 4.+ version of JIT from 2.2.

I do miss the TV app and stellar camera, but 4.3 is too great to leave. Sense 5 on 4.3 will be unstoppable
[One (M7) General] Fidelio_o:
Charging definetly is faster. So good stuff there. Went from 40% to like 82% in about 40 minutes.
[One (M7) General] papski2:
So there is no trim until we flash 4.3? I thought problem with trim is only related to nexus devices.
[One (M7) General] 0neblock:
A few people have reported the camera not working with 4.3.

Any confirmations?
[One (M7) General] RuleOfSines:
Camera is working fine for me, mine's an AT&T converted to GPE.
[One (M7) General] nxt:
Regular Google Camera is fine.

The stock Sense HTC ONE Camera does not, where on 4.2.2, you can just install the apk and have both.
[One (M7) General] 0neblock:
Did you do a full RUU convert? Stock or rooted?
[One (M7) General] nintendolinky:
Anyone have a advanced power reboot zip for this rom, i don't want to use xposed and was hoping it could be a quick flash in recovery, haven't found anything yet.
[One (M7) General] kirdroid:
Camera works perfect in 4.3, if there is an issue it would have been all over the tech blogs.
[One (M7) General] Aerys:
Yep. And no. Every device on 4.3 has TRIM support now =]
[One (M7) General] 0neblock:
Yep, turns out it was just the ruu I flashed
[One (M7) General] ericiidx:
I appreciate the new (lower) vibration intensity too! It's adjustable now; in keyboard settings.

Before, it was so strong that I would get that rattle/clunk sound on occasion. Now, it's almost too faint by default.
[One (M7) General] yhc1994:
3 dots

not many changes.

I really do not want to see that three ugly dots, why didn't HTC make a option to cancel it on google edition? like the international version.
[One (M7) General] Aerys:
Have fun reading. http://www.funkyandroid.com/aosp-JDQ39-JSS15J.html
[One (M7) General] RuleOfSines:
I did the Full RUU, unrooted with S-Off and supercid.
[One (M7) General] indelibo:
The new unlock icon on the boot screen splash is annoying. It's getting in the way of my beautiful custom splash artwork. The only way I know to remove it is to lock the bootloader.
[One (M7) General] altimax98:
Don't do that... if your converted you run the risk of a brick unlocking.
[One (M7) General] Aerys:
Its safe to lock the bootloader. Just use fastboot oem lock. Then, when you wanna flash something custom again, type fastboot oem unlock.
[One (M7) General] attahayee:
hboot

is 1.54.000 the updated hboot or it had the same hboot in 4.2.2 rom? i'm asking this because i converted my sense htc one into GE by running a RUU. does running a ruu change the hboot aswell.(sorry i'm a noob)
[One (M7) General] gunnyman:
There's a new build date on the HBoot screen so it's safe to assume there's differences. And yes, the RUU changes the HBoot too.
[One (M7) General] attahayee:
no update

Thanks gunny

I ran the 4.2.2 RUU in hope to get the 4.3 OTA update. but i haven't been able to get one. I'm S-OFF google cid and am unrooted. also locked the bootloader but no update. did i do something wrong?
[One (M7) General] gunnyman:
no reason to have locked the bootloader, but the OTA is coming out in stages. You'll get it eventually.
[One (M7) General] Aerys:
Clear Google Services Framework data/cache and check for update again.
[One (M7) General] RuleOfSines:
Has anyone encountered any issues hooking up their phone to the PC? I no longer see files and folders right away, spamming the refresh button slowly builds a folder list but some items never show up.

People with Nexii and GS4s are reporting they can take photos using the volume keys. Anyone with the updates see that as an option with the camera settings?
[One (M7) General] jsax:
Just tried taking a photo with volume buttons. Works!

I am on T-mobile One converted to full GE and got the 4.3 OTA. Using stock google camera. I never tried volume button to take picture with 4.2.2, but I'm going to assume this is new with 4.3. Didn't change any settings, it jfw. Either volume button works.
[One (M7) General] dwd3885:
not new, it was there in 4.2.2. But very cool nonetheless!
[One (M7) General] flamingBurrito:
Anyone having any issues with car mode on 4.3? After I updated, pressing the home button will just go to the regular launcher instead of the car mode launcher. I know this was a bug back in 4.2 that was fixed, but it seems to have come back? Has anyone else seen this?
[One (M7) General] gunnyman:
Car mode?

I don't think there's a car mode in 4.3. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.
[One (M7) General] IINexusII:
it just flips the launcher into landscape mode, at least in the lockscreen which i remember, dont see any other differences
[One (M7) General] flamingBurrito:
Well I have a car mode app (I use inDrive) and when I plug it into my car dock it launches the app automatically. Before the 4.3 update, if i pressed the home button it would go to the car mode app instead of the regular launcher but now after the update it just goes to the regular launcher. Like I said, this was a bug in 4.2 but the it was fixed in 4.2.2. I thought it might have been a bug in the inDrive app but it's the same in other apps. I haven't been able to find anything else online about this issue so I'm not sure if it's just me or if others have the same issue.
[One (M7) General] robstunner:
Super tempted to RUU 4.2.2 So i can experience what it's like to actually get an OTA for once. Also, I love me some Google Edition.
[One (M7) General] gunnyman:
LOL This is the only OTA I've taken on my phone. :D
[One (M7) General] robstunner:
is the camera any noticeable better or worse than sense?
[One (M7) General] gunnyman:
I'm not a huge camera user, I point phone at something and snap.

To ME there isn't much difference. But others are pickier than I am.
[One (M7) General] robstunner:
Cool, im sure i wont notice it too much either. Im sure HDR mode on the GPe vs Sense will be a tough difference.
[One (M7) General] gunnyman:
The good thing is the image stabilization and other image chip stuff is all there. Missing is burst mode (I kinda miss that) image filters, and the zoe stuff.

I never used Zoe so I don't know what I'm missing with it being gone.

Also note that with 4.2.2 GE we could use the sense camera, with 4.3 we can't. Looks like they've de-sensed this firmware further.
[One (M7) General] Theshawty:
Maybe it'd work if we added back the sense framework res?
[One (M7) General] robstunner:
Man, MMS file size alone is reason to go back already, just like the S4 GPe. Terribly downgraded MMS photos. Yes i use MMS.
[One (M7) General] I Am Marino:
I don't miss Zoe as I never used it.

I've gotta say though, after doing a full conversion to GE and running stock rooted, this phone FLIES and I always thought it was fast to be begin with.
[One (M7) General] blamdroid:

Thanks for the info. I guess there was some problem with the way i flashed the RUU. Just re-ran the RUU and after that got the OTA update. and yeah it was probably the desperation which led me to lock the bootloader :D which was unnecessary i guess.

[One (M7) General] krysdafur:
On Sense you can edit the quick settings by going to /system/customize/acc/default.xml

camera issues

My One is a RUU convert from T-mobile to GE, I did have an issue with my camera not starting and the face recognition unlock was not able to use the camera . But I rebooted, and fixed the problem, that happened two days ago and has not happened again. I have no idea what triggered the issue in the first place. BTW I was able to get the 4.3 update OTA.
[One (M7) General] jimmyjohns:
Radio performance

Is anybody noticing a little weirdness with LTE signal reporting on 4.3? Occasionally the status bar shows zero bars on LTE, but I still seem to have signal. Likewise, the phone signal strength status (in Settings>About phone>Status) reads at 0 dBm, (but I still have signal). This seems to only happen on LTE.

It isn't like this is a major problem, it just seems strange. When I look at the battery stats, cell standby only really reports about 2% battery used. However, sometimes it claims to have had "no signal" for a large percentage of time (greater than 40%).

I haven't noticed any actual adverse consequences of this behavior, but I wasn't accustomed to seeing it on 4.2.2 with the prior radio.

Is anyone else seeing this?
