what program are you using as i have the cricket k2_pl_cl for cricket which is different then the sprint boost mobile version....
[HTC One SV] :
Ah yes thanks for clearing that up. This phone will be rendered useless in 2015? It could work on Virgin Mobile since they have the same UICC LTE cards. (Theoretically speaking.)

Please keep in mind that virgin and boost mobile do not allow flashed phones. One would need to change the esn to an official virgin or boost one which is illegal
[HTC One SV] :
Ah yes. Predicament of flashed phones. I still can't even get the QPST port open on the Cricket model. Although I wouldn't consider UICC card swaps and flashing the same..they can be. It might be illegal or discouraged to swap out a UICC card from VM and stick it into a Cricket phone.
[HTC One SV] :
Boost will allow it if its a device from Sprint ;). Seen a guy buy a S4 from them and flash it to boost so he wouldn't be stuck in a contract lol. Surprisingly, it worked.
[HTC One SV] :
I've done a flash before..but I also did it because I needed to ;)

Galaxy S4 is a popular phone to flash to other carriers.

____________________

I bet the reason why Boost lets you flash Sprint phones is because...you're flashing a Sprint phone onto a Sprint network :P
[HTC One SV] rezoundness:
Sprint won't allow them to flash sprint contract phones to boost or virgin. Sprint will also cross reference your prepaid account with sprint post paid accounts and if the post paid account has an outstanding balance then sprint may cancel the prepaid account as well.

Katrine: Yes

Katrine: Is there anything else which I can help you with?

armingrudd: :)

armingrudd: yes just 1 more

armingrudd: does it mean that all SVs (international phones-not boost mobile or other ) will be updated to kit kat? and when will the update be released?

Katrine: They will receive the update when it is ready for release

Katrine: I have no confirmation of when

Katrine: for now we are focusing on releasing it for HTC One Mini and HTC one Max and HTC One

[HTC One SV] TVTV:
Some news regarding our SVs. A bit more technical this time. Also a bit less confusing. And there's hope, because they said "at this time", meaning they'll eventually update it to 4.4, IMHO.
[HTC One SV] MachiavelliBs:
Memory partition ... Correct me if i am wrong , but this phone got 4gb primary partition and 4gb secondary ?
[HTC One SV] Bazdir:
Yes. Exactly 4.15Gigs of INT and the rest stays for system and apps. I think HTC don't want to extend system partition so it will not erase data during update. So they must squize large Sense 6 Framework to just around 2.9Gigs of space. It's propably indeed challenging.

Wysłane z mojego HTC One SV przy użyciu Tapatalka
[HTC One SV] :
If they don't add in lots of HTC apks and leave it barebones minimum I'm sure it would fit on to the system partition.
[HTC One SV] unstoppable_punk_brainiac:
Actually i saw lots of phones that use the space in common. I mean you have 8 gb, and you are left with 5 gb (cause of the os) the remaining space you can use it to store apps,or put photos...no partitions....if you fill the phone with photos and you want to install an app,you just delete some photos and make the space for the app...

I hope you know what i mean.

And for the kitkat update i don't get it why dont they just make a huge exclamation mark before the update

"Attention!!! Continuing with the system update you will lose ALL data,photos,videos,apps etc, from internal memory .

Please backup the phone before the update process"

I really wish we would get the update :o3

Sent from my HTC One SV
[HTC One SV] :
Ah yes I know what you mean. I wish the update was existent and at least in the testing phase but I guess that's too much to ask
[HTC One SV] MachiavelliBs:
Check what they told me in facebook ;) If there will be update at all will delay very much (my opinion) . But honestly i dont believe we will got some future update. Have nice day y`all ! :)
[HTC One SV] MachiavelliBs:
Ups sorry double posting :)
[HTC One SV] unstoppable_punk_brainiac:
From HTC history and from what you found out, i am completely sure that there will be no future update for our ONE SV

HTC never ever ever did something in face of a challenge. They usually just ignore it.

Yeah, they're good at inovation,qualitty and other stuff, but in front of a challenge, never. You can see this by it's history. ( One X, One S , One V , One X+ , One XL ,

Desire HD

etc. ) and i must underline the Desire HD!!

So i ask the question : Why would it be different for us?

HTC Desire HD won't receive an official update to Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich causing quite a stir, the Taiwanese company has posted the reasons for the decision in its blog. The biggest issue according to HTC, has been the risk of users losing their personal data during the update process.

Apparently, the larger size of Android ICS would require repartitioning the handset's internal space and, therefore, cause the abovementioned danger. HTC considered reducing the overall size of the package, but came to the conclusion that such a move would impact the phone's functionality, so, alas, the decision was taken to leave the Desire HD in the land of Gingerbread. Sounds like a lame excuse to us, what do you say?

I wonder what will they say for our phone. I bet they're just gonna copy the answers given to the Desire users 3 years ago.
[HTC One SV] :
Sesnation 4G didn't get Sense 4+ and got Sense 3.6 with 4.0.3. :P even though it can perfectly handle Sense (sorta 6), they just stopped at 3.6 lol
[HTC One SV] MachiavelliBs:
I was angry before 2 months to be honest . Usual HTC giving one year and 6 months softwares support for the devices and (they says) 2 years for the flagships. But , when i stop and think for a moment it comes like this , HTC One Sv is released january 2013 , may this year will be almost year and half . There is no reason boost mobile users to got 4.2.2 in the end of this month and they to keep work over 4.4. I dont know for me it looks like this . Thats why i ask in the forum today about the size of the partitions i wasnt sure , you guys say some word ive check the phone , and thats why i ask HTC USA in facebook about the partitions of the device ...becouse they are making old trick like with the Desire HD ( is my opinion).... There was a problem with the partitions with HTC Evo 4G LTE but they release RUU . Same situation was with Desire S .

Somebody here point me with finger our device is not flagship ... and am agree with that ! But HTC come once says something , then confirm it like 100 times and now this . :) I like the device and the sense too, the phone will be with me some more time and then will buy me new one but not gonna be HTC again for sure ! . And i am with HTC with long time . Nvm , i am glad i found few friends here since i got this One Sv :)

btw they got new devices + Desire 500 still dont got any update so far i think ... is some mess ;) :)
[HTC One SV] unstoppable_punk_brainiac:
I totally agree with you Machiavelli, i had 2 other htc phones before this one, one was the Wildfire, that i didn't know it didn't had a GPU at all. Was the greatest mistake of my life paying for it. Then the Evo 3D, that's when i found out about the poor sofware updates from HTC.

I agree,HTC is great, but it usually ends up making me jealous on galaxy users.... They at least get some updates...and if you thing about it .... Samsung has 100x more phones released in a year then HTC , and yet they try to do something.

But the cool part, i had the curiosity to search XDA , on some samsung forums..... almost any custom rom for samsung is bug free.

And all htc roms are full bugs. And i am talking about independent roms,like cyanogen or others, not made from some RUU

So, if Samsung was to fail me.... i still had a perfect rom to put in my phone. ( original ,or custom made )

But better, there are a lot of companies that are emerging today. Some of them will sell the phones with a 5 year full warranty ( no differences from the legal warranty ) . So yeah, makes you think ... why would i buy a HTC anymore.

I really would love to buy a Allview P7 Xtreme ( only for romania) , or a Sharp phone ( only for japan ). They both have an IGZO screen, Sharp has it for more then a yeah and a half now....
[HTC One SV] luise_sarmiento:
If the update WILL come, it should be available for all cariers right? Not just the K2_CL version.
[HTC One SV] :
Technically yes, if it were to come, but due to the necessary requirements for changing our partitions they will most likely abort it. With that said, the K2_CL device has a different partition layout for the most part than all the other K2 variants when compared by blocks, and size. So, it sort of makes our particular device (K2_CL) to be unique when compared with K2_PLC_CL, K2_UL and the K2_U variants. Basically, the inner most basic framework of our device (K2_CL) will be constructed and built, for both system functioning and visual highlights, to be largely different in very many ways.

If you ever get bored, take a Rom from each variant and start de-compiling the system apks and sort through all the files via a technique known as, 'diffing'. The differences will greatly stand out. With that said, you are barely scratching the surface at that point lol.

My humble opinion of course, but the evidence is there and rather factual :).
[HTC One SV] MachiavelliBs:
Before 11 hours :D :D LOL!
[HTC One SV] :
I can't even react to HTC saying anything about a software update because my mind is lost in twists in turns.

I can't keep up with all of HTC's things.

M8 has been on my mind since last week.
[HTC One SV] TVTV:
I wrote HTC global on The Facebook. They said the update is coming. Maybe the memory issues only apply to Boost SVs?
[HTC One SV] :
Could actually be the problem. Maybe the partition sizes are too small for the Boost variant. I looked at a full system dump from both the M8 (and Desire 601) and yes, I'd say we definitely will run into partition issues.
[HTC One SV] :
All they have to do is merge data with int sdcard partition. Problem solved. With that said, they can easily do the same with other partitions as well. This has been done on other devices as well just so they could get the 4.4 KitKat. It can definitely be done with our device because simonsickle has already proven its concept on the K2_CL (Just hasnt been released publicly yet).
[HTC One SV] rezoundness:
I want kit Kat and now for the k2 plc cl

---------- Post added at 03:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:35 PM ----------

[HTC One SV] unstoppable_punk_brainiac:
Excuse me for asking but how many .....types of SV are there? I see you mentioning K2_CL... I dont understand. Wich one is the lte ,non lte..? I know its a code name, like for the Evo 3D was shooteru. But here are ....more confusing...

Sent from my HTC One SV
[HTC One SV] old.splatterhand:
k2u -> Non-LTE

k2ul -> LTE

k2cl-> Boost mobile USA

k2plc_cl -> Cricket USA
[HTC One SV] rezoundness:
k2u

K2ul are non USA phone
[HTC One SV] TVTV:
Don't forget that the M8 has a shedload of additional features and also a bigger display resolution (meaning larger size bitmaps for Sense). As for the 601, it also has a bigger display resolution than our SV.

Also we might get Sense 5.5 instead of 6, which could also save us some space.

I say that if HTC global says we'll get 4.4, we will.
[HTC One SV] bataya:
I would be most happy if we get clean vanilla kit ket. No need for sense 5.5 or 6.

:D
[HTC One SV] unstoppable_punk_brainiac:
Thx. I must remember this. So, i guess my phone is a k2ul :)
[HTC One SV] :
Also be weary of your partitions. You will notice slight differences in them when you compare. ;) So if flashing something make sure its specific to your device OR you insure the updater-script uses busybox as a universal method to mounting partitions OR that you insure you make the necessary changes so it will mount your desired partition (if whatever you tend to flash is compatible with your device). Just little notes :D
[HTC One SV] :
We have 4.2.2 right? I have a copy of CM10 (K2_UL) for the SV. I haven't flashed it as the test build was missing the firmware...so I added that in (from the /etc/firmware dir or something.) by extracting it. I flashed it last time and I had to re-RUU lol. I tried real hard to get the thing to boot but nope :p

This is why 14 year olds aren't supposed to be noob devs :p
[HTC One SV] :
K2_CL is still sitting at 4.1.2. Meanwhile, I am theming my Rom as we speak because I am bored lol. Took a theme from CM10.1 based on contacts, framework-res, systemui, and so on. So far so good on my end. Still more work to do though :).
[HTC One SV] TVTV:
Never will a high tier manufacturer release a vanilla OS for their products, unless they are Google Developer Editions. So keep dreaming, dude. :)

Punk, yes, if you bought the phone in Romania via official channels and you have LTE, then it's a K2_UL. if it lacks LTE support, then it's a K2_U.

Here's what mine says.
[HTC One SV] :
Ah yes. Themes. Themes are fun :) When I feel bored I just try to port LG's systemui to our systemui. Or the Sense 6 systemui.
[HTC One SV] :
Hmm, lol, I spoke about porting Sense 6 a while back. Will probably do that lol :)
[HTC One SV] unstoppable_punk_brainiac:
Yep, it's K2_UL :)

Well, the phone was bought from Quick Mobile 5 months ago ,but they got the phone from France. So i was a bit unsure what "code name" the phone had :) Now i know
[HTC One SV] MachiavelliBs:
Congrats to the Boost users , and goodbye to kitkat .

This is what moversi told me . Personaly i am looking for Nexus 5 already in my country (Bulgaria) is like 300 euro with one year contract ...

HTC One SV was 275 euro lol !
[HTC One SV] TVTV:
Again, HTC Global said the SV will get KitKat. Maybe the Boost variant won't, but the European version will.

Also, Mo didn't say we will never get 4.4, just that Boost will get 4.2 for now, as already planned.

Hold on to your horses, men! :)
[HTC One SV] MachiavelliBs:
Haha ok man ill take your advice ;):good: Got month or somethign till my contract will over or something ;)

I was going to check other countries software updates statuses. (The ones that have the SV. One VX I think is Japan. Or general Asia. The HTC One VX is sorta like the SV in specs and they might have already gotten a higher HTC Sense version.)

My hopes for 4.4 are completely gone :P
[HTC One SV] thearif:
I agree. I don't think we will receive a kit kat upgrade from HTC. My only hope is that we might get a CM version of it from the devs here. Oh do I regret not getting galaxy s4 mini. I picked One SV when I had the option. Now S4 mini has official CM 11. Almost all versions.

My only question is do we have any devs here working for a CM version for kitkat? If we do and we will get it sometime I will be happy.
[HTC One SV] unstoppable_punk_brainiac:
I know the felling. I wish i had a S3 mini but i went for the SV cause of the bigger display,and i really love Sense. :)

After this month we will know for sure if we will get any KitKat,if not...the phone willbe considered too old and for sure they will not update it. If not now,then never.

Sent from my HTC One SV
[HTC One SV] rezoundness:
We will not get it.
[HTC One SV] TVTV:
How do you know for sure?
[HTC One SV] :
Nobody knows for sure. All we know is that HTC is looking into it. Given the current complications HTC is facing they will not deny nor confirm KitKat for our device. It was clear in the beginning that they were confident about us getting 4.4 which is why they spoke publicly about it. However, it was also obvious that they got ahead of themselves and when reality smacked them they quickly retracted their statements and went underground with any future updates on the matter. When, and only when, they surpass whatever issues they are facing is when we will slowly but surely begin recieving more updates on the situation. Or, worse case, they close the project and announce publicly that we will definitely not get 4.4. So, until one or the other takes place, I would just sit back and be grateful for what you got with this device as it is.

OR, you can stop complaining all around and give back to the community to help make this device a better experience instead of leeching and whining :).

I call it like it is lol.
[HTC One SV] BrateloSlava:
I have a suggestion - lock this topic. And ban write this month untested nonsense about version 4.4.

I begin to feel that in this topic write only some solid magicians and soothsayers. ;)
[HTC One SV] rezoundness:
magic eight ball says no we will not get it...
[HTC One SV] :
I'm just gonna change the subject by stating that I figured out how to properly theme the com.htc.resources.apk.

Specifically in regards to the r.9.png and 9.png images while being able to apply those images to a Rom without the cause of boot loops, force closes, etc, etc :).

How about them apples :P
[HTC One SV] TVTV:
Some more news, fresh from today.

TL;DR - the update is confirmed, the date is yet to be announced, though.
[HTC One SV] MachiavelliBs:
And i got one from HTC USA hahaha
[HTC One SV] TVTV:
I still don't understand why they don't just release a bloody RUU.
[HTC One SV] thearif:
Releasing an RUU simply shows willingness of HTC to really release a firmware upgrade to our phones. With a PC upgrade software, you can first backup the user data, re-partition and install the new firmware and finally restore the user data. Which is possible by the way.

By I think they are simply using partition issues for OTA as an excuse....

By the way, is the partition table different for boost variant compared to the other variants of SV? Is that the reason for the boost SV not even getting 4.2.2?
[HTC One SV] :
Probably the reason why they aren't getting 4.2 so quickly. K2_UL/K2_PLC_CL/K2_U all have the same layout, with some minor differences.
[HTC One SV] :
Boost is delayed on getting 4.2.2 because they had decided to go for 4.4 instead. When they decided to stick with 4.2.2 it was already late in the game. HTC screw that one up by poor planning and management. Not much can be done about it now.
[HTC One SV] :
Well that too. [emoji19] Hope HTC won't screw up with the M8. That's my dream phone right there! lol
[HTC One SV] :
One guy posted over in the Q&A section saying he got it but he can't install it yet because his Rom isn't stock so he was asking for help. I told him he need to upload that OTA on here. He said he would, but I haven't seen it yet lol.
[HTC One SV] :
How do we usually get HTC's fotadl links? Logcat? lol running logcat right before you download the update
[HTC One SV] :
I dont know honestly. I have tried to figure that out in the past but to no prevail. It can be done though because links are always being posted for other devices. A mystery question I suppose lol.
[HTC One SV] TVTV:
It can easily be done at the router's level if you're running a custom firmware like DD-WRT etc.
[HTC One SV] unstoppable_punk_brainiac:
Tonight i was thinking about kit kat. And i asked my self,what do ii want from kitkat update? ....
