Pretty sure every Android build and update, regardless of manufacturer or phone, has to be certified by Google if Google's apps are bundled with it. OEMs have to abide by certain rules to be allowed to use Google's apps. This is why CyanogenMod can't legally bundle gapps with CM builds. Their builds are not certified by Google.

If Samsung, for example, submitted an update for the Galaxy S4 that removed the Google Play Store and replaced it with their own app store, Google would not certify the build and would not allow Samsung to bundle any of Google's other apps, including critical pieces like the Google Play Services framework.
[One (M7) General] CiDhed:
You don't think Google trusts HTC and Samsung at this point?

I'm fully aware of the dispute between Google and CM. That was due CM being able to be put on devices that weren't licensed by Google thus bypassing Google's device licensing. It had nothing to do with certification of the firmware.
[One (M7) General] PhoenixPath:
No longer matters. Factory images for the n4 just got posted.
[One (M7) General] bloodrain954:
GG, google wins again!
[One (M7) General] gtg465x:
If I were Google, I wouldn't trust Samsung haha.
[One (M7) General] CiDhed:
LOL, you would think they would ban samsung for lagging up Android with TouchWiz.
[One (M7) General] shishir95:
Especially since the Moto G is reportably faster than any TouchWiz phone -- with a Snapdragon 400. Anyways if HTC keeps their promise, 4.4 tomorrow would be likely -- and be shocking that the One lagged behind the Nexus 4 for like a day. Does anyone know of a SGS4 GPe 4.4 timeline??? lol
[One (M7) General] CiDhed:
Sometime in the next 3-18 months.
[One (M7) General] CraigP17:
if history repeats itself it will be on the same day as the GPe HTC One
[One (M7) General] The Project:
We should be getting the 4.4 update tomorrow. If we don't, Im buying the nexus 5!
[One (M7) General] funcrusher:
I'm actually a lover of stock android and bought this phone because of the GPe. I came from a nexus 4 and couldn't handle not being able to take videos of my daughter due to the horrible microphone any longer. I must say that I'm very disappointed with the experience so far. It just...doesn't feel optimized. It doesn't feel right. I've only tried a couple GPe ROMs and I keep hoping that this isn't as good as it gets.

Recommendations are welcome.
[One (M7) General] CraigP17:
It's not optimized. When the HTC One was being designed it was with Sense in mind.

With that said I def prefer the stock GPe experience. No complaints.
[One (M7) General] gtg465x:
I came from a Nexus 4 as well. The One is incredibly smooth running Sense, and it's smooth running GPE too, but not quite as smooth as I expected. But you have to remember, the One has to push a lot more pixels with its 1080p screen than the Nexus 4 does, so that's probably why it doesn't feel any faster than the Nexus 4 even though it has more powerful hardware. Hopefully the under the hood optimizations in 4.4 will butter up the HTC One GPE experience a bit more. If it doesn't, I'll probably end up back on Sense again.
[One (M7) General] FC1032:
On the bright side, gpe/stock aosp is getting better Google now features like the entertainment cards and TV cards.

Fills in the gap of blinkfeed for me :) no option to make it the home screen like sense though.

Only gripes now are:

*The lack of a TV app is also annoying. Its well done in sense and integrated deeply.

*poor stock camera experience (lack of controls)
[One (M7) General] v-b-n:
People with bad experience on GPe should make sure to update their firmware as well ... if you just try a ROM with firmware from another time, there WILL be issues (most will be unnoticeable)

I had the camera issues and such but just now got S-Off and converted properly to full GPe and everything is super perfect ... had the full lags and stuff before with 2.24 Sense firmware ...

As far as Stock vs Sense experience thats everyone's opinion anyways

For audio, I simply use Viper4Android which I believe to be the best out there at this time ...
[One (M7) General] sweetnsour:
Maybe you might find Currents (from Google) interesting. It's my replacement for Blinkfeed:

[One (M7) General] gtg465x:
Circa replaces the general news portion of Blinkfeed for me.
[One (M7) General] RuleOfSines:
I love Currents, I wish the widget wasn't such crap or I'd set it up on my homescreen like Blinkfeed
[One (M7) General] monkboy24:

'Sokay...they still have 17 hours to get it out. :)
[One (M7) General] Acill:
Failed to deliver once again, Within 15 days was last night at midnight. Its now 0637 here in Arizona and 15 days 6 hours and 37 minutes :P
[One (M7) General] Theshawty:
Hate to be "that guy", but what did you expect? I knew HTC wouldn't deliver on this day.
[One (M7) General] Acill:
Oh I knew it too, but it would be nice to see that dang CEO deliver on what spills out of his mouth. I'll give em credit for the 4.3 release though. It did come a few days after it was out on all the Nexus devices. Maybe we will see that this time as well.
[One (M7) General] monkboy24:
Lol damn but today is not even over yet guys. It could still arrive today.
[One (M7) General] Higgins12:
Hmmm did seriously someone expected it to arrive today? Really?
[One (M7) General] Acill:
I only half expected it to be here, but knew it wouldnt be for the most part. Its just when the CEO of a company states within 15 days you kinda want to believe them. With HTC's track record though this has never been the case.
[One (M7) General] Xperia_Fan_Version_6.5:
And, got someone the OTA message already?

Where I live, it's still 15 days.... :P not even.

So yeah, let's hope we get all the OTA message in the next few hours :D
[One (M7) General] Higgins12:
Could be 15 WORK - Days :D i'll more count on that
[One (M7) General] Acill:
Thats a copout. I have the new search and GEL on mine right now, have the official 4.4 on my Nexus 7 with it too. I can say I dont see much improvement on the N7 so I am not as upset as I was about how long it took to get 4.2 on my One, and 4.3 came real fast to the GPE which was a huge improvement.

We shall see...
[One (M7) General] Andrmgic:
I don't think HTC will release theirs before samsung releases the update for the GPe of the S4..

They were a little behind Samsung last time.. and all Samsung seems to have said about their GPe update is "In the coming weeks"

We can all rest easy knowing that we'll get (official) 4.4 before any non nexus devices, if nothing else :)
[One (M7) General] Xperia_Fan_Version_6.5:
Can the guys who destroying our hopes please left this thread :( :D We get this today, in a few hours :D

[One (M7) General] funcrusher:
I'm on sense and I like it, but simply prefer stock android. I've played with kitkat on my nexus 4, first with 4.4 with 4.3 binaries, and now the official -- I'm enjoying kitkat thus far.
[One (M7) General] horsetastic:
lol never expect an update on time man.... especially an HTC one.... I always expect it to be 2 weeks late, that way I'm happy if it comes before lol!!
[One (M7) General] bloodrain954:
then you're used to how HTC operates, lol
[One (M7) General] horsetastic:
Indeed I am haha. It's even worse if you're on an operator branded phone as well. Before S-OFF I had a H3G UK branded phone. There isn't a single RUU for the One on 3 yet, and they usually release their OTA updates about a month after HTC have released the update which is usually about a month late to begin with.... It doesn't take long to decide to just never even look/check for an update to save the agony lol....

[One (M7) General] Theshawty:
GPE is worldwide.

Pretty much anyone with a GSM One can convert their units to GPE (GPE seems to support many MID's and CID's including of course SuperCID)
[One (M7) General] mitchst2:
Yes I've converted my Vodafone UK to GPE. But it's says not available in your country on play store.

Hence why I said officially? Is it officially available in other countries?
[One (M7) General] Powereh:
No only the US is it available officially. The rest of the world has to make do with voiding their warranty if they want GPE.
[One (M7) General] edgarf28:
But they only sell the GPE HTC One in the US.

Correct.

[One (M7) General] lapidu:
When do you call the HTC support?

I've owned every Nexus starting from the One. My N4 nor N7 asked me for it. Trust me.. I rather run stock android over AOSP any day. I didn't even accept the OTA from the N4 & 7, I downloaded the images off Google. Not once and I mean once has it asked me to "accept adb"
[One (M7) General] housry23:
You must have special nexus phone then because ever since a certain update to the android SDK, it has been required. You had to upgrade your adb and fastboot and then accept your computers RSA key to run adb. It's a security measure added in 4.2.2. It's fact. I'm not going to argue with you about it.
[One (M7) General] luckylui:
You know what they say not everyone device alike :)

Not arguing tho, just stating what I see in my side. Like I said this is nothing new to me. Been rooting since eclair days bro. This is second hand to me, I can do this with my eyes close.

WI FI BUG

Can someone please confirm this bug, pretty big IMO.

Go into the WIFI settings then advanced ---> Keep Wi-Fi on During Sleep

select never.

Leave phone for 10 minutes then check battery, you will see that Wi-Fi NEVER sleeps.

The only time I can get wifi to sleep is to turn it off manually. On Sense the same

selection would allow the wifi to goto sleep and it would reflect this when you check

battery.

This is a good thing unlike my last bug post. Same exact spot I

check LTE speeds with Speedtestnet in Clifton, NJ

I've had 0 problems with past releases. This one tho, is a arm an a leg to work. I've never taken so many steps to get one or two things working. Pretty crazy if ya ask me. ADB permission first time I've ever heard this, like I said I've never had to accept adb working on my laptops nor comps. My Nexus devices have never asked me for permission to run adb. Ever. Another problem is the phone off screen animation.. That doesn't work either since rooting 4.3, it worked before root but after no go. 4.2.2 I rooted and went my ways with 0 issues. Not once did it ask me for permission to accept adb? I just don't get the problem. I am reverting to 4.2.2 and taking the OTA, see if maybe that works.. I've done the full RUU conversion and no go also the nandroid backup no go. Like I said 4.2.2 was working perfectly fine, never once did i t ask me for permission to run adb.. That's what I'm observing on my side. Like I said rooting is nothing new to me.

Man I'm tweaking bro, OCD ain't nothing fun let me tell ya that to start lol. When I know something is wrong I try to figure it out solo.. But, if I'm completely stuck I call for help. I've gotten my HTC one to a point that I got 4 exclamation points on my boot loader and nothing would start.. It was just stuck at this boot loader screen with 4 exclamation triangles in each corner.. Thought I bricked my phone, but I brought it back to life via RUU. Other people would probably flip ape **** if they saw something like that lol.. In all truth tho. I only ask for help if I'm completely stuck and I've tried everything in the book. I don't know what the major difference between 4.2.2 adb and 4.3? Because, if 4.2.2 gave me 0 issues with adb and now that 4.3 is out its completely funked on my side.. I don't get it lol.
[One (M7) General] io53:
Since android 4.2.2 you have to accept the adb RSA key fingerprint. There is nothing more to it.

To be able to get it to work you need a new enough adb version. What API level is your android SDK?
[One (M7) General] altimax98:
Exactly. Every Android device running a variant of AOSP has this requirement. HTC disabled this on the Sense 4.2.2 update I believe but it is there on all Nexus devices.

Other than that 4.3 GPE is great.

I have the older nexus 4 adb is there a newer version? I get device not

[One (M7) General] housry23:
Even though this is not the nexus 4 section, make sure your android SDK is up to date, make sure USB debugging is on, connect your phone to your computer, run adb devices and look at your phone screen. You should see a popup box asking you to accept your computers RSA fingerprint. Check the always allow box and got OK.

Having dealt with Google's support team when I had issues with my GNex, they are definitely better than your run of the mill customer service department. I don't know about OTA's, though.
[One (M7) General] CiDhed:
I'm just saying, this isn't the Nexus One, it was said when it was released that it's still a manufacturer phone. Hell, the 4.2 rom was mostly sense under the hood, do you think Google compiled and tested that?
