[Verizon HTC One (M7)] jntdroid:
I would imagine those scenarios are a small percentage of the time right? I'm not saying they're not noteworthy, but don't go with the Moto X just on camera alone. I tried out a Droid Maxx and the One's camera runs circles around it. That said, my one complaint with the One is that it can't handle situation's like you're describing - the uber-low-light scenarios that really need a flash. The problem is it doesn't light up the flash when it's trying to focus, and therefore can't focus because it can't see anything to focus on, and the flash shots will, a lot of times, end up blurry. The non-flash shots are pointless in that low amount of light, purple/reddish hue or not. .

I know there are plenty of threads discussing good note taking apps for school. I need an app that works great for work, specifically replacing a notepad. What do you guys use and recommend?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] big_w:
Without a doubt LectureNotes , I have tried S Notes first, but you will find lecturenotes does all and more. I use it at work in meetings, for minutes, updating PDF. I now take just my Samsung galaxy note 10.1 with lecturenotes on into meetings and don't even take a normal pen anymore.

Worth also getting PDFView by same company, for the pdf annotations.

I have to say that the developer if first class, very helpful, responsive and trys to take on new ideas.

just checked up on it today and i see the international version is now in there for testing.

I had an app on my DX that would allow for dual boot. It was a cool idea but never quite worked right.

I will give it ago if it works.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] PsiPhiDan:
Sounds cool - how's it work? Boots up two different ROMs?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Wh1t3Rose:
Keep in mind this is a whole lot better and easier because we have an unlocked bootloader. The DX did not dual boot well because of the locked bootloader and did not allow different kernels.

Hello,

Does anyone knows how to dimm led during charge. It looks nice and fun but not when I charge next to my bed, it feels like bedside lamp still on :)

I have look around and most of mods is to make notification led to light brighter or not working on our phone.

I tried to follow those forums but no luck.

[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Hand76:
What do you do?

Do you jump ship to a sure thing that can be unlocked? Do you look into an unlocked developers edition Moto X? Do you jump ship from Verizon and wait for a Nexus 5? These are the questions I have.

ALSO what would you take:

A) Great phone (say Nexus 5) on a sub par carrier? (AT&T/T-Mobile)

or

B) Good phone (Moto X) on a great carrier like Verizon?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] thecitywelivein:
I would like a Nexus 5 but oddly, it's cheaper for me to stay on Verizon and the coverage can't be beat. I love the feel of the One and even though I'm an aosp kinda guy, this phone doesn't feel bloated at all when you run a different launcher. I'm easily going to stick this one out till my next upgrade.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Frankie1588:
First off, my Verizon HTC One is already unlocked/rooted thanks to doing the HTCDev unlock on day one.

I would still keep this phone though if I was still locked and it didn't get unlocked any time soon. I am very happy with this phone even in stock form. Luckily I do not have to worry about it though. I just really hope ARHD and/or Venom get ported to the Verizon variant. I worry if these will ever get ported though since there is no longer a way to currently unlock/root.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] crazyg0od33:
I'm still going to stick it out, I just wish I didnt need to deal with the vzw bloat
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] andybones:
I give my devices 6 months.

After that, I find another one

I enjoy this phone a lot though.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] EncodedNybble:
so unsure

The debate in my head is eating me up. I don't know what to do!

While I like the phone a lot so far (though, haven't experimented too much). I really don't like the blink feed and a bunch of stuff they've done. I really wish I could just have vanilla 4.2.2 or 4.3 :(

That said though, I really like Verizon's network and I have a discount with Verizon and a family plan. So it's really not so expensive for me.

Will VZW even carry the next nexus subsidized?

I just wish I had bought the phone ~15 mins earlier, then I would be unlocked. Now I just wish there is an unlock before my return period is up.

I think I may return the phone and just wait for something better, but I really don't know! First world problems!
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Hand76:
Chance of Verizon getting a Nexus 5 is slim to none. You want a phone close to stock android unlocked from the start on Verizon the only thing I see on the horizon is the developers edition Moto X.

And yea first world problems indeed. ;)
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] josh995:
I like the One even without unlock, so I'll keep it until a better phone comes out. However, after having the iPhone 5 with the metal & glass back and the HTC One and it's all metal body, I will never go back to a plastic body phone. I hope the other manufactures up their quality big time. No more plastic for me.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] jbh00jh:
Use the APEX Launcher and you won't have mess with BlinkFeed or the vzw bloat, and will have 5 screens to use. And the phone is plenty fast.

[Verizon HTC One (M7)] rmaccamr:
My primary intention with an unlocked bootloader is to go near minimalist while maintaining the integrity of Sense 5. Now that Sense has several incarnations I might even find legacy Sense combined with Sense 5 an interesting custom ROM to run (I.e. Sense 5 with the full screen weather ani.actions that Sense 4 had.)

This is all under the assumption that we get unlocked, which if you consider the history of technology, there is generally no immunization available for a bug yet to be discovered, so hboot 1.54 will definitely get an exploit, the matter is time before technology advances to another stage.

That being said, considering it has taken this long without demonstrated progress to a permaroot situation, it's unlikely that we see one before the return period.

With all that in mind, your best bet isn't to worry about what phone has an exploit available, but what options your phone can have in the future, in this case you have the option to run practically every launcher or software, including Sense, which I happen to like, and from my Dinc days, have seen tons of cross bred ROMs that gave me the option to customize when I was bored. I think ultimately having a daily driver for over a month and I'm pretty much bored with any phone, and I just had the GNex. Had tons of "custom" ROMs, all with the same look and feel. And of course if you're a hardware junkie the One can't be beat imo.

I guess I'll probably keep it but I don't give up hope that we may have an exploit before next Thursday, in which case I'll be thinking much harder about it than I am now.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Frankie1588:
I couldn't agree more! The HTC One is such a sexy piece of engineering. I love that cold sensation you get when you pick it up for the first time in the morning. There is NO way I could go back to anything else!
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] nrfitchett4:
Personally, I would love to come back to HTC. On the Samsung galaxy note 2 right now and its driving me crazy with dropped calls, dropping 4g to 3g that my rezound, thunderbolt, kids dna's just don't do. Got the Note 2 because of storage and battery life, which are very nice, but the plastic build sucks big time.

Development for the note 2 is pretty good which helps, but honestly, on today's phones, there just isn't a ton of improvement needed out of the box so romming isn't as important.

Quick question: is there even a temporary root option? Biggest concern is being able to keep game data on titanium.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Hand76:
Nope not now. And that is a big one for me too.

Google get your %^& together and give us an easy to use backup and restore system in the OS already...How have they not done this already?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] crazyg0od33:
same thing for me. I played with a motoX in best buy (STT) and not only was it already non-functioning, but damn it felt so cheap compared to this phone. Though I will admit the 4.7 inch screen in such a small housing made it very comfortable to maneuver with one hand (at least as easy as I can tell when working with a blank, non-working screen :p )
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Lykarsis:
On my DNA I switched back and forth between CM and Sense 5, I love both. I'll stick with the one even if no unlock is achieved because A: I do like sense 5 and B: the build quality on this phone is the best I've ever felt. I would like to give CM a run on this phone though, so I'm hoping for an unlock soon.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] coldconfession13:
I would still keep my unlocked one
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Zwitterion:
If I Run Apex/Nova, is Blinkfeed still running in the background?

I want to eliminate the drain from blinkfeed, but will stick to the stock Sense launcher if running Apex is just adding a second layer. Is Sense Launcher loaded if using another launcher?

Thanks!
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] treetopflyer:
I'm having the same dilemma. Love the hardware/feel of the One, but can't stand sense or the idea if running a skin on top of another skin. Not to mention built in WiFi which I use quite a bit (unlimited plan).

I kept my galaxy nexus longer than any other cellphone since my first in 1993, because I've been able to flash lean ROMs, keeping it useful well beyond it's time.

MotoX developer edition is on the horizon if this phone is not unlocked within a few days.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] MajikUF:
Bad news, venom already said they weren't going to support the verizon one. They're looking at the next verizon htc phone, the really big one.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Frankie1588:
Damn, that's disappointing :(
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Lykarsis:
That sucks. I loved Venom on my DNA. Still, newtoroot has already posted some stuff. His NOS was always very solid on my DNA so that's promising, assuming we ever achieve unlock that is.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] crazyg0od33:
seems odd that the One Max would be supported by Venom, but the One wouldnt. They seem very similar aside from screen size :/

Yah. While I doubt they will change their minds, I will at least post where I got my info. I certainly don't speak for anyone, so my information could be bad, but read for yourself:

once/if unlock/and/or s-off comes, we could open bounty to get a member a phone, if they are willing.

I personally know it would be very worth it.

also theres been a few ppl with unlock willing to rid the device for jus the termination fee + tax ($375) thatd be really easy to collect IMHO

just food for thought
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] unconfuse:
I used helium to backup my data from rez to Google drive. Then imported it all to the one. You just need a PC if not rooted. I'm OK with that. I'll keep the phone but being a great piece of hardware isn't enough for me and I'll be pretty bored. I just feel it's more fun to hack and tweak stuff then use it for its intended purpose. Ha
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] nrfitchett4:
How's that working these days. Bought it when it was still carbon and it didn't work properly on my rezound, either via pc or backing up to phone.

As long as data can be restored for apps and games, I could live without root.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Hand76:
Also I heard if you don't have root you have to connect your phone to computer each time to restore items after restarting your phone.

Does that still hold true?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] poondoggle:
I have to agree with you Josh. I am a recent convert from an iPhone 5. The only thing that was holding me back was build quality. Before I picked up my iPhone 5 I played with an S3 for a weekend and it felt really cheap by comparison. I love my One although battery life is a little low compared to my iPhone. In fairness, I need to give it a few weeks before I make a real judgment on battery.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Vidfreek:
Probably going to keep mine, I love the phone itself, in or out of a case it just feels so much better than any other phone I've had (original Droid, Droid X and a Galaxy S3) but it certainly is disappointing if nothing can be done with this thing, It pisses me off quite a bit that these companies stop you from doing what you want to with YOUR phone, I'm paying them a butt load of money for their service and if I want to mess up my phone, thats my business. We all know that we void our warranties when we do this and it shouldnt be an issue. There is really no good reason that they are stopping this other than, they can. Its obvious that its possible to do and I still dont get how Verizon can just tell HTC to stop allowing this when its THEIR phone, its not like Verizon made this thing.

Needless to say I'm out of upgrades for the time being and there is nothing worth really returning this for, I thought about the Droid Ultra Maxx but I'm not sure it would be worthwhile outside of the extra battery life, which really isnt an issue since I carry a portable device charger as a back up anyways, as I'm guessing it will probably have all the same issues as this does right now and most likely wont be unlockable either. The only phone I was interested in was the LG G2, but the One is almost that phone already besides the bigger screen, so hopefully something happens with the One on Verizon, if not I'm probably still pretty damn content, its a fantastic phone
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] unconfuse:
It works great. No complaints other than the one has no root so I have to connect to PC for USB debugging. Rezound and Nexus 7 backed up fine.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] 123421342:
Lol wait like a normal person? Lots of people got the dna and that took a few months to get the exploit out when most people had the phone.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] BlueCross:
Menu, settings, apps, select Verizon bloat sh1t you want to remove, disable.

So simple.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] DavidKotzebue:
To enable Developer Options.

Settings/About/Software Information/More - tap on Build Number multiple times.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Gornul:
I've kinda gone back and forth on this topic. I was originally planning to just return the phone outright next Friday, but the longer I use it the more I love it in spite of the locked bootloader. The screen is beautiful, the battery is pretty solid (coming over the Rezound, which required a massive extended battery to make it through a day of moderate usage), and it's speedy. If a slightly gimped-up unoptimized workflow is the price I have to pay (I love notification-shade power widgets, built-in tethering, etc), I can live with it.

That said, if this phone is still locked when my contract is up in June, Verizon can die in a fire. They have the best coverage where I need to be (military, so there's no telling where I'll get sent next), but even so: I'll sell this One, buy some other phone free-and-clear and go nomad, settling with whatever carrier works best where I'm stationed. Probably port my number to GVoice while I'm at it.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] spotmark:
I'd love to pick up one these phones, but I won't buy one unless I can unlock it.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] nrfitchett4:
Why would you need to restore everytime? Unless you wipe data.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Hand76:
Well that is just what I heard. That without root the system is read and write protected and after a reboot the changes made won't stick.

Just like if you install a rom without root and make changes when you restart your phone all your changes will be undone.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] joeliotta:
You can use carbon backup to transfer game files without root. I did that from my s4 to my HTC. Can't start candy crush over.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] bwhite757:
Without question I will not be returning the One. I'll be honest and say I was quite bummed when I learned that the bootloader was no longer unlockable so quickly, but that said this is honestly the 1st phone I've gotten that I enjoy the stock ROM. The combo of Sense 5 and Android 4.2.2 is actually quite good. I am a big fan of AOSP based ROM's, but this phone is so fast a fluid that I see no reason to tinker with anything. It works, and works well. I don't feel like I'm missing anything without root. Also with other phones a big thing to get root for was for tethering, however I lost my unlimited when my company switched the the share everything, so I can use the built-in hotspot now with no worries.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] scarshapedstar:
My main concern is being able to tether unlimited 4G to my Nexus 7 - I can't even pay Verizon for their crappy hotspot feature if I wanted to. On my current Dinc there's no way to do this without a custom ROM that supports it (aside from PDANet I guess, but that's kinda ghetto). Saw built-in tethering mentioned up the thread; is this possible with a grandfathered data plan and no paid hotspot?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] RebelShadow:
Yes, just use FoxFi. I use it with no problems and I believe it's the only hotspot app working atm. outside is the stock app.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] scarshapedstar:
Got FoxFi but whenever I try to start the hotspot I get scolded with a popup window:

"Warning: Use of this service requires a subscription to Mobile Hotspot or Mobile Broadband Connect. Please contact Customer Service or dial *611 for assistance."

Get the same message with a half-dozen other hotspot apps I've tried. :\ Uh-oh.

You have an unlimited plan and no hotspot feature? Do you have an old version of FoxFi or is there some super-important setting I need to fix?

---------- Post added at 07:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:47 PM ----------

Heh, well at least I am able to USB tether to my laptop and then share that connection over WiFi, not elegant but it's much better than nothing. My phone still shuts down both WiFi and Bluetooth hotspots, though. :eek:

Will try connecting from phone to tablet with a USB OTG cable in a few hours... crazy enough to work?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] RebelShadow:
Nothing special, just using the latest paid version with unlimited plan and no hotspot feature.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] drwolcot:
I am undecided as you are but I already have the One Unlocked and rooted and my wife has the MotoX. I really like the MotoX. I actually think it is faster than the One. I also really like the One's screen however I love the AMOLED screen on the moto x as I came from the GNex. The One also has great front facing speakers... I got until Thursday!
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Santoro:
These are exactly my sentiments. This phone is almost flawless as is and I can't see going back to slowish and buggy developer ROMS again. I actually don't want the temptation of an unlocked bootloader right now. :)
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] bulvine420:
Just got my one yesterday foxfi works fine no problems
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Dark Jedi:
I will be getting the one most definitely . I am sure they will get the phone unlocked but even if they don't it seems really great as is. I would mostly want to use WiFi tether and to debloat my phone but if push came to shove I could by a sim adapter and use my rezound for tethering. They had a one next to a s4 and the feel of the one just felt right and my son has a tab2 and I deplore touchwiz. The moto x seemed to be really good but the camera just plain awful. So thsats a no right there.

I hope it gets unlocked but if not I think stock this phone will please the majority of the users. After all android has come a long way and HTC seems to be getting sense under control. I figure in a month I will have the one. Will be switching my upgrade to my dumb phone line to not lose unlimited. Even the guy at the Verizon corporate store suggested it and said he would do it for me no problems. So can't beat that. Guess he is one of the few that looks at it as a sell is a sell.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] andybones:
there is the option to send to user member Sonic to have him S-OFF it for you.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Dark Jedi:
No offense to sonic but I don't send phones to people I don't know personally. I have seen a guy who was popular on a truck forum and even a mod. When he was parting out his truck he took peoples money and ran. I am sure sonic is trustworthy and not saying he would do this. Just that rather be safe than sorry. I think I could live with a stock one if there isn't a way found to allow me to s off or even unlock.

[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Dark Jedi:
You are shocked by this? Verizon screwed up royally when they wouldn't let Google have access to the CDMA network to allow them to update the galaxy nexus. Instead Verizon told them they had to send them the update and they would go over it and see if it was up to Verizon's standards then they would release it. Which took forever and goes against everything Google stands for on open source and quick updates.
