Once everything is strange. Recently received a 4.2. 4.3 - never will. And at once - 4.4. Most likely - it will appear in the summer.

*Impatiently waits, even though there is no hope for Cricket lol*
[HTC One SV] :
Something interesting guys...
[HTC One SV] :
Well it's not like I use my 64GB card...so....

I guess that's why you have to make a good choice when buying a non-SD card device.

Good thing I bought a 32GB Nexus 5. (BTW Totally off-topic.)
[HTC One SV] MachiavelliBs:
Well i rly dont believe we will get 4.4 anymore , and there will not be such think like year and half software support for us . HTC will play us if you ask me , they will do whatever to not give kitkat to this device(rumors,speculations) . They got new devices and stuffs. I think 4.2.2 was the last one for us ,never was a plan we to get 4.4.2 (my opinion) . I am already checking for different phone (and will not be HTC anymore) but ill wait till the end of april , and if they give this update to us i will keep using HTC devices , if they dont well ...will be time for change . And there is no problem with One SV and 4.4.2 they can give the update to us(even Samsung Galaxy S3 mini will got 4.4.2) but i think they will leave us in the past . I ask [MENTION=494185]LlabTooFeR[/MENTION] in twitter , [MENTION=1862878]movers[/MENTION]i and [MENTION=673286]jasonma[/MENTION]cHTC keeps ignoring me , in the official HTC facebook page they told me ask your operator for updates ? (Like HTC dont know what will be for One SV , YEAH lol !) HTC will play us , if you remember the Desire HD situation . Congrats to the HTC Evo 4G LTE users they got RUU and Android 4.3 ( check the specs of the phone ;) ) I love the sence and blink feed but the policy of this company is disgusting , they will found excuse and nothing more will be for us . Maybe i sounds like hater in this , but so many years and times i was disappointed from HTC with them updates policy and i just dont got powers and nerves to continue . The thing that pissed me off was , i am asking them like 200 times and they just watching me from high place (but who will say word to the little man ) . Nvm i know what to do when i choose my next smartphone . Check the screenshot ;)
[HTC One SV] :
Let me have your phone for free lol :)
[HTC One SV] old.splatterhand:
Do not claim things, that you don't know for sure!

What i have seen is, that Galaxy S3 (not the mini!)

maybe

will not get Kitkat. At least for europe. Read this and that.

Then the best for you, is to change your phone, but please don't compare higher priced phones with midrange phones, because flagships always will get better support.

I hope for you (and really wish it), that you'll get happy with that.

I, for myself, never expected more than 2 major OS updates, that is, what i was used from the past.
[HTC One SV] xpirt:
And I really don't understand why 3 big updates (4.0.4, 4.1.2, 4.2.2) are not enough..

xpirt
[HTC One SV] Kohltont22:
To get an answer from HTC every One SV user on here needs to be on one huge like group on Facebook or community on G+ and keep tagging HTC in it until we get our anwser whether its positive or negative
[HTC One SV] Bazdir:
I agree that we had lots of updates like for a midranged phone (I'm so happy about it), but still - the 18 months support IS the 18 months of damn support, so even we had received that many updates, we should still receive some until EOL. For instance only the UI update or some fixes to current one (as I've heard they have fixed some annoying things in 5.5 like they made adjustable quick settings or wider support for lockscreen widgets).

EDIT: Ah, and most useful one - custom rss feed on Blinkfeed.

[HTC One SV] unstoppable_punk_brainiac:
Today i spoked to 2 different operators , one from romania and one from uk. The one from romania....aswared like for retarded people regarding a storage improvement. Anyway. The UK one helped me and I thought i should ask about the KitKat update too :

About the KitKat update for then ONE SV, it was on the htc webpage as reciving update to kitkat but a few moment later it was brought down from there. Will it recive the update?

And they aswered that " At the moment we are reviewing the update for the phone, and hopefully you will get the KitKat update"

I don't know... there are slim chances to get the kitkat, but at least there are some. So it's not completely ditched .

Don't get the hope too high. As i said , there are slim chances, they could say at any point that is hardware limitation and cancel the update.

The One S line. The X is from the SV line. It just gets confusing lol. Not sure about the V though.

[HTC One SV] unstoppable_punk_brainiac:
The community of the One SV is pretty small.... and i say this coming from the Evo 3D, where you can now see spider's web all over that place. I remember the old days when ICS was up. All the people screaming on HTC to give the ICS....i think that was the biggest update htc had ever done....just because their website, blog ,facebook and twiter was all full of people asking for the update :)
[HTC One SV] old.splatterhand:
You can simply see that, when you look into development forums of One SV.

As long as you can count the custom roms on one hand, it is veeeeerry small ;):angel:
[HTC One SV] unstoppable_punk_brainiac:
Yeah and most of them are made by you . So yeah,a small community.

I am really curious to see what htc will say about the kitkat update @ next month

[HTC One SV] unstoppable_punk_brainiac:
Ooooh ok

I feel kinda bad for the One SV, it looks like a great phone,but in my country i am almost sure that there are no more then a 1000 sold. Most stores or carriers didnt sold it...and other stores brought them from italy....

So today i was at a big shop for accesories here,and they told me that they won't manufacture or import cases and other stuff for the SV cause of the extremly poor sales the phone had here.

And yet,the phone is great,not expensive,looks nice,great specs like s4,lte,nfc..., has Jelly Bean 2.... And if it gets kitkat....it would be even more awesome...

The bad part is that i didn't even know the phone existed until 1 month ago... So really bad advertisement from htc... I think

Sent from my HTC One SV
[HTC One SV] :
Yea, I didn't even know the SV existed here in America either until I decided to look around. Heck, back then, I didn't even know there were other One variants outside of HTC One itself haha. For awhile I though the HTC One was it. Didn't know about the SV, V, X, X+ and any other one that may be out there.
[HTC One SV] unstoppable_punk_brainiac:
Wait wait, but did you know the same phone is selled in 3 different versions? I mean,it's basically the same phone but some here and there changes.

SV , SC and ST :) Google them. The SC White, looks just awesome :D I love the rubber back and that nice huge HTC logo :D

It reminds me of my old friend , the Evo 3D
[HTC One SV] :
What the Heck is a SC and ST? Hahaha. Never heard of them...
[HTC One SV] old.splatterhand:
They are only sold in chinese regions.
[HTC One SV] unstoppable_punk_brainiac:
Not really. I mean yes, they are for chinese regions only.... but in Europe lots and loooots of companies get phones from china and sell it here in Europe under their own brand. Why? Because they're cheap, and they work with our GSM network.

and a bit of off-topic

For exemple, a local company here in Romania released a phone...made by the chinese that is... well....epic? I don't know if i should post it here or not, but i guess i can tell the name of the device : Allview X Xtreme. And is here on the market from quite some time... almost a month. But they have huge problems with the software...lots of bugs, crashes.... poor updates... But if you think only about the specs.... It's awesome.

It's really really fascinating how a local company this small, can get new tehnology faster then some other big international company's .
[HTC One SV] TVTV:
Punk, there have been more than 1000 units sold in Romania. Vodafone alone has sold several thousands, I believe. But yeah, it's not that popular as it's only been sold for a few months. Furthermore, the LTE network sucks, is practically non-existent, so there hasn't been much interest in LTE equipped terminals, either cheap or expensive.

I could barely find a screen protector and I had to buy an original case off eBay.
[HTC One SV] unstoppable_punk_brainiac:
Sorry Sir,if i offended you in any way.

Maybe you're right about the numbers, who knows, but at the moment, you can't find a thing for this phone as you said. You can barely find the phone, even second hand the phone is almost nonexistent. So yeah,pretty poor sales.

And about the case you bought from ebay. What model pf case is it? I try myself to find one on ebay,but not so much luck.

edit -

Ohh, you said punk because of my username. I forgot about it... I thought that you said punk as in .... "hey you , punk " .... My bad :)
[HTC One SV] :
The only reason why it sold better here was only because Cricket advertised the hell outta it. :p So many commercials of the d2cri and One SV...

[HTC One SV] :
Super stripped down Sense 6, since like what? 1GB of the /system partition?

Sense on the Sensation = ~600MB

Cyanogenmod = ~200MB (Gapps inc.)
[HTC One SV] unstoppable_punk_brainiac:
Yeah,but still ,is less then the new Samsung ,that is around 9 GB if remember it right...

Anyway,from what i've seen so far there are no major changes from we already have...

Maybe the new blinkfeed.

Google Experience ( never )

Maybe some small camera changes?

The ART support?

I really hope they will merge the internal space. If i have a 32GB of microsd card,i want to be able to use my internal only for apps...

Any other ideas about what could change?

HTC is .... Well retarded. First i spoked with an UK representive trought the online assistance,and it confirmed that they are reviewing the update, the US tells me there will be an update,and now,UK changed her mind and their saying there won't be an update.

Ok, can someone on BOOST or from USA ,i don't know, ask HTC if future updates are in development?

It is still possibile for the BOOST users to get the update. Not really sure, but tonight i talked with a Zuzana from HTC Online Support about the updates , and told her that HTC USA told me something and UK something else , and this is what she respondent me:

Zuzana: Hi Butnaru, thank you for contacting HTC Support, I am looking in to your query now.

Zuzana: It depends on the region that your device is porduced for. For HTC One SV at the moment there are no updtes available for Europe

Me: And future updates for the european are under consideration?

Me: under testing... or just nothing at the moment?

Zuzana: Unfortunately, we do not have that information. The latest updates are developed only for the newest phones, so far

Me: Ok Zuzana

Me: Well , thanks. I still wonder what was in HTC USA head when they said that they're aiming to the end of april :D But who knows

Zuzana: As I said? It depends on the region. USA devices have fdifferent software

Me: Ohh, ok. Thanks Zuzana

Me: That will be all

Me: Have a nice day :)

Zuzana: Thanks for chatting with me today. To end our conversation, please click End Session. Enjoy the rest of your day!

~Edit~

No news/posts/comments for almost a week .... Wow
[HTC One SV] TVTV:
Well, what is there to say? All we can do is wait.
[HTC One SV] MachiavelliBs:
Little update from the last 30 mins from HTC USA . Is for boostmobile users
[HTC One SV] :
Still skeptical, eh. Who knows at this point? All I do know is that Boost should be at least guaranteed 4.2.2, before they say anything 'bout 4.4. Also, HTC Desire 601 (Virgin Mobile's.) is getting 4.4. ._. Possibly an opportunity to port Sense 5.5..or not. :eek:
[HTC One SV] TVTV:
In my opinion it's unacceptable that Boost hasn't yet received the 4.2 update.
[HTC One SV] :
True, but its currently in process for certification right now (so their website says lol)
[HTC One SV] :
Certification...

... ...

it's been like that for a few months, hasn't it?

My opinion is: either Boost is stuffing the ROM with bloat and testing it like Verizon or..they just like to pull on yer tails and make you anxious. :p
[HTC One SV] :
Hahaha. And no, it was on integration... But to be honest, it at one point said it was complete a while back before the 4.4 confusion came about.
[HTC One SV] TVTV:
It is possible they will push 4.4, then. I see no other reason why HTC and Boost haven't pushed 4.2 yet, other than skipping 4.2 and going straight for 4.4.
[HTC One SV] unstoppable_punk_brainiac:
I am honestly starting to wonder if HTC will do the bad thing and make the KitKat only for Boost mobile and for the international One SV not.

USA,still says YES for the KitKat update, but uk,romania and global, still says the phone will not get any more update and will stay at the current version. :|

HTC made stupid decisions before ... the Desire HD, the One S , One X ..... so i really expect them to just do the update for the Boost , and for other no....even if that's stupid.
[HTC One SV] TVTV:
Nope, Punk, if Boost gets 4.4, everybody will. Updates cost a lot to make and it would not be feasible to build one for one carrier/region only. It would also lead to bad publicity, and that no company wants. :)
[HTC One SV] EROMITLAB:
This makes no sense, I've watched HTC update website for the last couple of months and saw 4.4 get pulled and 4.2 go through all the stages and it is now in certification.
[HTC One SV] simonsickle:
Because 4.4 needed to come first. They are actually integrating it though
[HTC One SV] unstoppable_punk_brainiac:
I know that TVTV .

But you can expect the unexpected from HTC , do you remember HTC One X+ users? They didn't get any updates at all. And was officially left this way.. So anything is possibile with HTC :)

Let's just hope that this will not be the case. But even if they do kitkat for Boost only , we have here the comunity to port it :)
[HTC One SV] LetsChangeTheGame:
hmmm

it looks like the htc one sv community is growing nicely we have some serious devs thank god i dont know what i would do if i just had to have a stock phone i probably wouldnt have the phone.. thanks everybody thats trying to make this phone alittle more gangster...
[HTC One SV] rezoundness:
i think we wont get 4.4 or newer. i think we will have to get cyogenmod to work on this. I am on at&t cricket brand (death star took over). I am rooted with s-off and working twrp.

These games that the makers and carriers do with android updates make me wish that google handled all the updates like apple does... not being an apple fanboy but if apple can do it then so can google as all google has to do is have on set of hardware for each tier such as low end, mid range and high end. then each maker will use that hard ware to design a phone.
[HTC One SV] :
Google is actually working on doing that right now. They are currently setting the stage for all others to implement the latest versions to their devices or else Google will push it back to them with denial of approval. Unfortunately, once this is up and going, it will only apply to future devices. So for devices prior to it will be out of luck, but it is still a good thing to see Google step it up and set the others straight like Samsung, HTC, and so forth. :)
[HTC One SV] EROMITLAB:
boost will not get kit kat simply because write to SD is broke which would be a big deal for such device with so little storage. Look for 4.2.2 and sense 5 end of March maybe even next week. ?
[HTC One SV] :
Yes, partially true, meaning as of now..... I'm talking about future devices though... Meaning future tense, not present or past lol. With that said, it is possible to merge partitions for more storage. Regardless whether or not such device has been placed with its "current" specified partitions. A current custom Rom is in the making as we speak in regards to such an idea. I have had the privilege for testing it myself.
[HTC One SV] :
#GoogleScrewedWithOurSDCardPermissions. Custom ROMs fix the perms though. So, ROMs are being built now eh? That's a good sign.
[HTC One SV] :
This one is currently for k2_cl, but it will be really easy to merge it over for the others. I cannot say when it will be released though. I will say that it will provide a substantial amount of storage for data than what the device originally comes with :).

It will also require a modified custom recovery due to the changes of the Rom. But so far there are currently no bugs ;).
[HTC One SV] :
I'm fine without any sort of info on the ROM; knowing that one will be made is enough for my brain! Something also tells me that it doesn't have HTC Sense. Usually the ROM for a AOSP-based OS is ~130/120MB. Not like 500MB haha :)
[HTC One SV] :
The tested rom still has sense, but I believe it may be greatly reduced. That decision wont be up to me though. The change in storage actually has to do with some merging of partitions. Data will have up to 6 gigs roughly. But that is about all I will say on it from here.
[HTC One SV] :
Ah well thanks. Gives me an idea of what to expect.
[HTC One SV] simonsickle:
So... 4.4 sdcard can be worked around very simpilly. Htc will just do what cm did, honestly. They will take the sdcard, mount it, change permissions and it will be given access to just like data media... But this only affects devices with internal storage.. Maybe they will repartition our device and give us a 5gb /data ;)
[HTC One SV] csoresz2:
Some of they know dates, some of them don't know anything about update...

so confusing :(
[HTC One SV] unstoppable_punk_brainiac:
It's a bit vague .... I think they answered without thinking/reading .

Or is it really possible that we will get it?

I hate the " One family " , which phone are in this family ? Cause from what i get it, One X, X+, XL, S, V, SV, SC, ST, VX, J are from the One family....

They should be more specifically when they say " on all One family " I bet they we're talking only about the 2013 lineup : One, One mini, One max ...
[HTC One SV] Bazdir:
Confusing HTC is confusing. It seems we're not getting any further update, when we will get an update, that we shouldn't get, although we should get it, even it's said we'll not have it, we'll get it, LOL.

EDIT: How much confusing this sentence is, that much confusing HTC stays.. :D

Send via Tapatalk from my moonshined HTC One SV. :)
[HTC One SV] TVTV:
Guys, first of all, when i spoke to mr. Versi via e-mail, he didn't say that the One SV won't get 4.4, he just said that they cannot upgrade it just now because of a technical limitation and that they're working on it (i'm guessing it's the whole KitKat SD card shenanigans). So we might still be in the cards for KitKat.

As for the confusion, i can't believe that even after all this time, the US FB team is still confused. Either they're stupid or they actually have correct information. Again, we'll just have to wait and see.
[HTC One SV] simonsickle:
The m8 has a SD card :) and 4.4
[HTC One SV] :
Yes it is a very outstanding device. But...it's also a very expensive one. Me being 14 can't buy anything on his own. Has to wait for parents to buy or buy in payments on T-Mobile. I want one so bad, but I'll stick to the SV and the Sensation. :eek:
[HTC One SV] simonsickle:
I ended up buying it. Programming some websites paid for it, actually. It's a good thing to learn
[HTC One SV] :
Intresing. I'll probably pick something up like that in summer. I've been wanting to learn but haven't had enough time with all the studies.

Also, sorry for hijacking the thread..sorta. :eek:

This just in... Phone is now worthless as att won't pay for cdma updates as they are a gsm carrier.
[HTC One SV] thearif:
Whatt???
[HTC One SV] rezoundness:
Ok att will be shutting down the cdma network on or about March 2015. Our phone is cdma att will be only using gsm let phones. Thus why would att pay to certify any new firmware updates for any cricket phones... We don't even have lte in Denver...
[HTC One SV] :
Um..? Doesn't the SV also have GSM bands to run on GSM networks? Correct me if I'm wrong.

______

Also don't tell me that the SIM card slot is actually just a UICC LTE card. I already know that.
[HTC One SV] rezoundness:
Not for the newCricket as it is cdma lte and so is boost mobile and boost is stuck on 4.1
[HTC One SV] :
Not trying to also make you offended..but here you go. See, the GSM bands exist, but are merely not used. Like the Cricket S3. Has GSM bands. Doesn't mean they'll be active. But they're there.
[HTC One SV] rezoundness:
T ha t maybe true on your version but not on the cricket version. As no us carrier would ever have another USA carriers bands on it. The band's used in the US are different then in the EU
[HTC One SV] :
Eh. Whatever. I give up. As long as I don't have to buy a GSM S3 I'm fine.
[HTC One SV] rezoundness:
Well the s3 and the S4 are so 2013 as the S5 has been announced... I would but my head in a paper bag to avoid the shame of using such an outdated device...
[HTC One SV] :
Sensation is best phone for me.

The Galaxy S3 anyways is still expensive. The one on [MetroPCS] is about what? $500? And yet I still ask why it costs that much.
