We can assume that the rolling of 4.4.4 ota on our devices will be also like that. Maybe a month.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
They will not release 4.4.4 for sense versions. Jumping directly to 5.0
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ped13jr:
the lollipop update for sense is on january-february. why will they not roll our devices in 4.4.4 first? :confused: can you give me a link where that info sir?

They are currently working on 5.0 not 4.4.4.

They also made a post somewhere about it. Skpipping 4.4.4 to bring 5.0 faster.

No one had a G2 out on display for my friend to play with. I'm trying to convert him from iPhone but every store (2Best Buys, an At&t store, and a RadioShack) did not have a model out on display. It looks as if even the Moto X had more advertising behind it. Surprised me quite a bit that the lack of sales is because of product placement.
[G2 General] donnybright:
I agree 100% Most of the store employees at at&t didn't even know this phone existed when I bought mine.
[G2 General] cdejesus1119:
My At&T was sold out.
[G2 General] paniro187:
I noticed this also. They didn't even have one on display. I had to ask for it to see if they even had it.......:(
[G2 General] Geekybiker:
I'm surprised about the ATT store. Was it an official company store, or some affiliated store. Non company stores are always kind of hit or miss on finding working phones instead of inert display models.
[G2 General] Ascertion:
It was a corporate store and the manager said they had one on display but had just taken it down for some reason.
[G2 General] mouf32:
I went to a corporate VZW store on launch day and nothing was out and half the employees didn't even know what it was.

About two weeks later went into a non-corporate store and they had nothing out and knew nothing about the phone.
[G2 General] shook187:
I went to a Verizon store to check out some assessories and to my surprise they had none on display but a bunch in the back sitting in a basket..
[G2 General] akong702:
Well, here in Las Vegas, the phone is being advertised on TV and the radio. Also saw a couple of posters for it at the T-Mobile, and att stores.
[G2 General] dxwilliams40:
I am waiting before I buy because we will see a price cut really soon. The G pro is only $19 on contract at Amazon now. It hasn't been out 6 months yet.
[G2 General] dmbfan13:
I went in to Verizon (corporate store) on launch day and asked about it. No one knew what it was and said they didn't have it in stock. The associate then went on to recommend me NOT to buy an LG device and how he hated them. But if I were interested in an iPhone or Samsung, then he'd help me. Couldn't believe it! So I left and bought it at another nearby corporate store.
[G2 General] shook187:
Yeah like most phones they usually end up being bargain phone in the $19.99 to $49.99 range... the question is how long before they reach that price?
[G2 General] dxwilliams40:
Probably next month. Black Friday
[G2 General] plmiller0905:
My ATT Corporate store had some on dispay i when I got mine. The Rep also seemed to know a lot about the device as well. She was talking about how cool it is and also talking about some of the features.

They is marketing the G2 really well imo, here in Wisconsin. lot's of commercials :)
[G2 General] Ajoli:
In Sweden there are huge banners and even some TV-commercials (Phone commercials on TV are very rare here)

I was lucky enough to snag one as the stores were running out fast.
[G2 General] dante501:
They actually do advertise it and the att store here loves the g2 and Verizon reps here waiting for them to finally arrive. I know they are far behind is a non corporate Verizon store and ur in Wisconsin redneck area so most likely the non corporate store Verizon will get it late but they have huge posters out for it thought. Att here has it and the reps really pushing it as the android phone to get.
[G2 General] Ascertion:
Really bothers me because I know of a lot of people that'd be more informative than these reps but the stores don't seem to be happy hiring informative people, but rather morons.
[G2 General] hoonigan43:
I got mine from best buy mobile store on Wednesday. They had 5 in stock, it is a great phone. Only thing I hate is relatively quiet speaker
[G2 General] Skizzy034:
The AT&T store in Crossgates Mall in Albany, NY had it on display when it first was released and took it off display for for some reason. I think they are still selling it tho. Best Buy also has them in stock but not on display. Just bought one yesterday at BB. Exchanged the Blue HTC One for it. I LOVE this phone. The display is amazing. I've had all the major high end phones this past year and this one is BY FAR the best. Hopefully the development will pick up as more people discover the G2.

I also played with the Note 3 in the AT&T store and the same lag from the S4 is present in the Note 3. It's the God's honest truth. I was debating whether to buy the Note 3 today or the LG G2 yesterday but after seeing that my decision was easy.
[G2 General] andrawer:
In Cincinnati, OH USA...

Best Buy is where I purchased mine...don't remember seeing one on display but during the purchase they said hey, we have a $50.00 coupon...so got it for $149.00. Made me happy. They had zero cases.

Local AT&T store had a working one on display but the sales rep clearly wasn't pushing it. He said you seem to know what you are looking for but asked if I considered the S4...I pulled it out and said that's what I'm getting rid of:). Checked 5 AT&T stores for cases and they all had only one...bodyguard (nice case by the way)

Stopped by a large AT&T store in Vermont while traveling looking for a case and the LG hadn't arrived yet for sale!??!

Funny, one AT&T rep commented (in a whisper) that he considers the LG G2 the best android phone they've carried to date.

The mobile market is fierce, it looks like small companies have no place in it ..

Nokia, motorolla, blackberry ..

Is HTC facing the same grim future ?!
[One (M7) General] plznote:
I would hardly call HTC small. Its a failing giant. While the HTC one is a great phone, its probably too late for HTC, just as its too late for Microsoft.
[One (M7) General] lbaquerizo:
So sad to see how a good company with a great product can not get back into the race. I thought that HTC with the One will have a small revenue but no. Once again it goes under appreciated

The company has had a streak of terrible products for years .. And this year they redeemed themselves with a GREAT phone .. But perhaps it's already too late ..
[One (M7) General] HiddenSanctum:
If you haven't notice, all of the companies that only make cellphones haven't been doing too great (Nokia, HTC, Blackberry, Motorola...etc.), it really hard to compete with these large companies (Samsung, LG, Apple, Asus, Sony...etc.) because even if one of their smartphones doesn't do too great they still got their other products from other segments of the market to bring in revenue. Samsung's domination in the market is concerning though. Its never good to have one company dominating, especially for us consumers.
[One (M7) General] knightblaze:
Its not the end of the world. The HTC One was the first stepping stone down a path of profitability. The HTC One was a success, but with that success you also need to cover the failures (their operating loss would be far greater if the One didn't do well).

With the launch of their next products, and so long as they stick with the positives of the One; improving upon them they will come back to profitability.

Their ship hasn't sailed just yet, Nokia and Blackberry have had abysmal performance for what seems like forever and are only now going the way of the dodo( and Nokia put up one hell of a fight with their devices, just bet on the wrong horse).

While true that many handset makers have other sources of income, they are also potential money pits (TV divisions for nearly all of them are in the toilet). Samsung is essentially the 800lb gorilla. They can design, manufacturer and market devices in a faster manner than the others since they can self produce most of the components as they have all that infrastructure in place. Only way to beat them, is to continually put out a stellar product that does what it should really well and better than the competition. This doesn't just go for HTC, but for any competitor.
[One (M7) General] mouzaihem:
I can't speak for HTC but Microsoft is going absolutely no where. It's ridiculous to even compare Microsoft's situation to HTC's. With that, frankly, I don't believe HTC is going anywhere either. They are on a better road right now.
[One (M7) General] discoandhaze:
I feel like the ad campaign for the One was quite lacking, especially compared to recent Samsung and Nokia commercials. The One is an amazing device, but (for the average consumer) if they haven't heard their friends talking about it, they're not likely to get it.
[One (M7) General] justiiin:
This actually makes me kind of sad.

I mean, I really really dont understand why the One is not getting the love by the consumers that it does by all the award titles.

What do the phone sellers do anyway? Shov the S4 up the buyer's throat and make them buy it?

Don't people read reviews on the internet before they head over to the store to buy a device?

The family of my girl is also the typical S4 buyer, where already 3 of them did.

Her brother got the S4 and had craploads of problems with it, he could have bought the S3 for that matter, he said.

I came in with my HTC One and showed all of them my device was superiour in every freakin way.

Four months later, the mother AND the sister are walking around with the S4 too...

I mean, WHAT THE HELL? Dont they listen?

Ah well, as long as HTC does not fall and the support for the device stops, I'm happy with it.

I've had the S2 for two years, and I were pretty satisfied. But every time I pick up my One, I get this "wow" factor.

I find myself just holding and watching the device, being amazed about the build quality, it just has no competitors in those terms.
[One (M7) General] exocetdj:
Things will get worse before they get better in anything!

Beleive me I have given up smoking and my lungs feel worse than when i was smoking lol! They will however get better!

the One is a great basis to start on and if they keep churning out iphone killers like this, they will be going in the right direction eventually but it takes time! :good:
[One (M7) General] ashlward:
I wonder if things would be different if they added a physical home button. ;)
[One (M7) General] BarryH_GEG:
Sadly, it wasn't. Success is measured in sales and it grossly underperformed HTC's own estimates as measured by them reporting earnings below their own guidance in both Q2 and Q3; the two quarters where the One should have made a difference. They botched the One's launch and have also botched the Mini's launch. Because of production problems with the latter's casing they can only produce 200K per month. So now comes the Max which is selling for more than the N3 in China where HTC appears to be launching it first. It's got a .2" larger display and appears to be huge and heavy in comparison. HTC's finally starting to attack merging markets (which they should have done two years ago) but price is the biggest driver in those markets and HTC's components costs are now higher than their competitors due to their erosion in volume. Analysts' have a target price on their stock of NTD 100 which is shamefully low. When the stock nears that price someone will acquire HTC; most likely one of the Chinese phone makers.

The One was their last chance for a self-driven turnaround and in spite of it being a fabulous phone, HTC's best to-date, it was too little too late.
[One (M7) General] jbh00jh:
HTC has never advertised their products on TV enough in the US market, Samsung is on TV all the time. Also their reps get all the best in-store display space and have signs all over the stores. Advertisements sell the products.

Most mobile customers have never even heard of HTC.

[One (M7) General] peterg21:
The simple fact of the matter is that Samsung outspend them on marketing 10-1, not just this year but last. It is a matter of Samsung having so many irons in the fire. They are so diversified in so many areas that with slack in one area of their businesses they can push in another area. HTC have never had the resources to compete in the area of "mind share". They are singularly focused which is a bad thing. They grew exponentially but when Samsung got serious they simply outspent HTC, coupled with HTC missteps. Heavens, Samsung outspend Apple 3-1.

I really like my HTC One - the best phone I have had by a big margin. However, I do not see how they can arrest the attrition in their business without much bigger money behind them. As it stands, their margins are shrinking drastically. The only real hope for HTC is I believe with a "merger" (polite for takeover) by probably another Asian company. There is no such thing in this business as a "niche" cell phone manufacturer. R&D, marketing etc cost money and without economies of scale it is almost impossible to make good money and have good products.
[One (M7) General] jbh00jh:
I have been using HTC phones since VZW started selling them and feel that the One and DNA were the two best phones they ever made and neither ever got the advertising they deserved. I really hate to see them

fold up but I realize they don't have the resources to continue much longer. They can't fill the orders for the One or the One Mini. Ran out of the metal housings.

[One (M7) General] Albert Poon:
Poor production volumn, too high pricing, too late release date are the reasons.
[One (M7) General] kenyw:
HTC seem to have been having problems with handset launches even since last year in the One X/S days, where they were already facing component shortages and were not able to meet launch demand for their new devices. The nice design and materials used also mean the cost of producing each handset is higher and gives HTC less scope to discount than, say, Samsung does.

Samsung have quite a few other advantages to drive down costs, for example being a major component manufacturer for smartphone parts as well (DRAM, Flash and displays), whereas HTC has to buy all their components, without the advantage of a history of being able to drive large volumes. This is now borne out by the S4 being cheaper than the One, at least based on a cursory online search. Yes, and plastic feels cheaper because it is :)

Also, their marketing was not as aggressive or salient as Samsung's - Samsung have such a big presence in the retail shops. I've seen this in the UK, and also in SE Asia where there seem to be so many more handphone dealers selling Samsung than those selling HTC.

Yeah, I found it. NOT OKAY!!! No matter the reason, it's still not okay!

T-Mobile does it too, my friend just checked.

VZW & AT&T probably do it too, can't confirm though.

Since T-Mobile is also connecting to the DoD using the 21.x.x.x IP address, can we say this isn't just Sprint supplying the DoD's with information? Why does T-Mobile need to go through them too? How much goes through them and why? Other then just to watch citizens. Sprint says that they are just the U.S. Government's phone company and that's why they go through the DoD, but T-Mobile does too.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] paychex:
MOD EDIT

Look up the ip addresses that are reported back

If that is actually the case and they are NAT'ing the addresses to their own; why doesn't a single Sprint IP show up in the table?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] jamcar:
And, why does T-Mobile also go through the 21.x.x.x IP address? All of the companies can't NAT the address through 21.x.x.x, something else is going on.
