[Verizon HTC One (M7)] GrayBoltWolf:
Android 4.4 and Sense 6.0 update should be live and filtering through the system to stock M7VZWs.

http://www.htc.com/us/go/htc-software-updates/

REMEMBER:

If you are running a custom recovery or have an unlocked bootloader, DO NOT TAKE THE OTA! It will fail.

Also, if you are fully stock and wish to unlock or go S-OFF at some time in the future, DO NOT TAKE THE OTA!

If someone could download the OTA and make it available for the few remaining developers that would be great!

Otherwise, enjoy the update!
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] carm01:
Trying to pull it, but stating up to date. i am stock odex manually debloated, and all the update apks are in place. Anyone else having the same?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] edster00:
I am completely stock; no update available at this time.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] dottat:
perhaps it's not a holiday where HTC is :)

Probably means tomorrow for VZW users.

I'm going to post an RUU for the current version rom to help some people get ready.. :)
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Uzephi:
My wife got the ota notification, but fails (completely stock) to download
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Cares:
Can't wait for stock rooted Sense 6.0!

It still says "Certification" status on this page though: http://www.htc.com/us/go/sense-6-update/
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] GrayBoltWolf:
It says "complete" for me.

Are you looking at the Verizon HTC One?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] whb_3:
Gray, the link you posted and link Cares posted are two different links. You're both right.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] SynisterWolf:
right hand doesn't know what the left is doing?

AFAIK the update will go live this week. From what i've heard on twitter. we just get to sit here and wait patiently
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Soul TKR:
Man I hope this helps fix the power consumption problem I've had since KitKat was installed.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] GrayBoltWolf:
It will have the extreme power saving option.

But it sounds like you need a factory reset. It is usually a good idea to reset after an OTA. They usually don't take very well.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] SynisterWolf:
agree, if you take the OTA i would do a factory reset. i know its a PITA but it helps 99% time
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] dottat:
+1 and going forward i would suggest that factory resets on stock roms only be done with stock recovery. HTC has been putting files in /data/preload (duoeffects stickers etc) and wiping with twrp etc will often wipe them... unless TWRP etc get updated to not.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Soul TKR:
I've went through 4 HTC One M7's... just got this one last week. So everything is fresh on it. However on every single one, the battery drain has been an issue. Which didn't happen prior to the KitKat update when I was on Jelly Bean.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] SynisterWolf:
wow, thats not good. were any one of them stock when this happened or was it on a custom rom?

maybe its an app that is constantly asking for services or updating.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] GrayBoltWolf:
That's what it sounds like. I've had pretty good battery life on stock KitKat.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Soul TKR:
All of them were completely stock :(

I've installed Battery Doctor, and it helps get me through the day but the drain is still pretty horrible. I find myself plugged into a charger more than I should be with minimal use.

As far as an app running in the background, I've used my phone completely stock for a few days with no added apps and it still does it. I'm pretty convinced it's either GPS, Wi-Fi, Data, or OS related. Or all...
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] merlin66676:
Once we can get the download, please remind me where it downloads to, so we can pull it

Thanks
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] dottat:
usually /cache or /cache/fumo
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] hytekjosh:
Is there a change log?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] GrayBoltWolf:
When someone gets the update they can screenshot the changelog.

Anybody get it yet?

Dammit, my phone still says it's currently up to date :mad:
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Lex82:
Mine does too, I just noticed the .pdf on the support site so I thought I would post it.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Soul TKR:
I'm curious to know what this is about in the "Issues have been resolved" section on the bottom of page 3

• Resolution for the device not able to power ON in rare scenarios

Wonder if it has anything to do with my thread here.... http://goo.gl/XX6yKJ
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Lex82:
Mine is downloading now!!! 642.8MB is the size.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] dottat:
got it.....
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] brent372:
Same here!
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] GrayBoltWolf:
If either of you guys are rooted, be sure to download the update, and upload it somewhere for us before you install it!
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] dottat:
its 33% uploaded.. flashing the update now too..
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Lex82:
Sorry, still unrooted here.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] dberthia:
I'm presently rooted using the Weak Sauce app, and am S-ON. Will Weak Sauce be able to re-root after the OTA?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] dottat:
By the way.. took the update completely stock s-off and unlocked. I was rooted...

http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23501681358539258

edit and rerooted already with TWRP...
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] brymaster5000:
If you want to fully root and S-Off, I would avoid taking the OTA. The OTA will install firmware that might block the weaksauce method.

If none of the rooted people download the OTA, I might do that to post it...but chances are Santod's on it.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] evilstewie23:
Mine is in cache/fumo and it is downloading firmware right now. I'm on ecliptic sense 5.5 also so if you need an upload I will do it
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] santod040:
OTApkg.zip is here

Firmware and radio zips being posted in my stock thread right now...
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Soul TKR:
Downloading the update now! WOO HOO!!!!

Sorry still stock
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] GrayBoltWolf:
This is good. So at least the update won't make you S-On or lock your boot loader.

But it may patch weak sauce or firewater.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] dottat:
posted an RUU file for it here..

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=52987679#post52987679

edit.. btw.. did anyone notice its kitkat 4.4.2 and not 4.4.3?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] santod040:
Was never expecting it to be 4.4.3.

All m7's so far that have gotten Sense 6, have gotten 4.4.2.

I would be inclined to think the m8 and m7 GPE will see 4.4.3 before the stock m7's do.

Even that won't likely happen for a few more weeks at best.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] SynisterWolf:
it would be odd for HTC to release a new version of android before Google.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] santod040:
Yes it would, never said or thought that would happen either.

4.4.3 is in the works.

It will be out soon, but the m7 definitely wouldn't be the first device to get it, especially the Verizon model.

It will mostly hit Nexus devices before anything else and the GS5, as recent signs have shown it being tested.

But this is of course all going to happen at and around Google I/O time next month, not anytime before.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] dottat:
Yeah... Guess I needed my caffeine to wear off. Are you planing to use this base at all for a nusense build by chance?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] SynisterWolf:
My post was more of add on to yours than me saying you said... My bad, should have quoted both.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] santod040:
Pieces and parts probably, but not most of the actual base, blehh.

Vzw really knows how to leave out the good stuff, lol.

No worries, I actually wondered that after re-reading. :)

So I tried to make mine not sound the way it probably did anyway, but we're on the same page with it, it seems. :good:
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] quantum.information:
I have a question, if I do a factory reset, can I use titanium backup to restore apps with data after that? Thanks.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] GrayBoltWolf:
If you are rooted, yes.

Usually the issues lie deep within the system.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Dig.Taylor:
I've been fooling around with Unsense ROMs for a while. I think I'm going to give it a shot!
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] hytekjosh:
So Blinkfeed has used 11% of my battery in the past 8 hours. I have it disabled. Not good...
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] merlin66676:
Weather bug has used a ton of my battery today as well. The widget seems to be the culprit. Was a fresh ruu so nothing left lingering from sense 5.5
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] bikercr:
Had same battery problem after prior OTA: rapid drain, especially when charge went down to 25% or so. Erratic charge indications and other serious power problems. I bought a new M8 but didn't like it's larger size compared to M7. So I called HTC tech support and they were extremely helpful and knowledgeable.

To fix battery abnormalities due to software (not due to bad battery) there are three steps. First is to recalibrate battery and HTC charger. Next is to clear device cache. ThIrd is to flash fresh ROM (with the new OTA this week, this is already done). If all three steps fail, problem is likely hardware based. HTC will repair or replace undamaged phone for free if it's under warranty. If you have screen damage, it's $180.

To do the software fixes, see my post in the QA section of this forum: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2765658. All the steps are explained and they fixed my battery problems.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] GrayBoltWolf:
I would still recommend a factory reset after any OTA.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] hytekjosh:
The Clock app is also drawing significant power usage. I wish I didn't take this update ugh.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] synthtech:

Same here, 10% battery used. I actually didn't use sens launcher.

Anyone experiencing ant difference in reception with the new basebands?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Uzephi:
I flashed the firmware zip from Santod and I had odd connectivity issues. Flashed the recovery radio and I don't see much reception differences (fixed connectivity issue though), then again I have always had full bars in this big city

Sent from my HTC6500LVW
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] gadgetrants:
Same pattern on my One as well. In my case, I traced it to the (baseband) radio -- probably double the power draw (based on GSam) than what I saw with JB. The good news is that I am seeing MUCH LESS CPU usage with the new KitKat radio. *fingers crossed*

Two other quick observations. First is that -- of course -- the new power-saving mode is nowhere in sight on the Verizon version (or at least I couldn't find it). How odd and frustrating that they would remove it.

Second, it's pretty minor but I noticed that while viewing the lockscreen, if you double-tap the display it turns off. Kind of a nice trick versus fumbling for the power button. It's also nice to see that we can change the lockscreen wallpaper and add widgets to it again.

Oh fwiw I am 100% totally stock. Not even rooted. :(

-Matt
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] hytekjosh:
So no one else is having issues with Blinkfeed using significant battery when its disabled?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] gadgetrants:
Not sure if our situations are comparable (I have it turned on at the moment) but GSam is showing 0.4% for HTC Blinkfeed over the last 2.5 hours.

EDIT: ah now this is interesting...the built-in battery monitor is reporting 15% for the same app, over the same time frame. Weird!

-Matt
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] onthehole:
Battery life for me is the same as it was on jb and sense 5.5. I'm rooted, soff and stock with xposed and all is well. This update is fantastic. /shrug (did a full wipe before flashing if that helps..)

[Verizon HTC One (M7)] false_apology:
My device is rooted/s-off w/TWRP , on stock rom. Is there a way for me to apply this update safely? Or is the only way to flash a cooked rom that has integrated the update?

Thanks
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] GrayBoltWolf:
You can flash the RUU through fastboot. It will wipe everything though.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] jc332986:
Is anyone having issues with paid apps not installing?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] false_apology:
Thanks for your help - One follow up question though, I noticed a post earlier in this thread (here ) suggests that it is ok to just take the OTA if you are already unlocked/rooted and it will not have any adverse consequences? Unless I am misunderstanding that other post. If I take the OTA, I'll loose root (but will keep my unlocked bootloader) then I can just re-apply root in TWRP, right?

I'm tempted to just apply the OTA, but I don't want to end up with a bigger mess to clean up as opposed to if I had just used fastboot as you suggested.

Thanks
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] SynisterWolf:
You will need to change recovery back to stock, then take the OTA, then flash the insecure boot.img

from there you just need to load recovery back on and flash the SuperSU zip to gain root again.

if you are s-off unlocked:

i suggest to just flash santod firmware zip (one without the boot.img)

then just put recovery back on the phone. you will have the latest firmware and ready to try any rom in the dev section.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] onthehole:
^Exactly.

Sent from my HTC ONE.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Uzephi:
When I got my replacement it had the earliest firmware on it. I ran rumrunner to soff unlock and then took the otas without issue then flashed tarp when up to date. But if you already have custom recovery then it is best to just flash santod's zips.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] hippopo:
I'm S-OFF and unlocked (via firewater), rooted, stock.

Is there a way for me to install this update without losing any of these goodies, and without factory reset?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] false_apology:
I'm in the same boat; and looking to do the same thing. (I'm notrunning stock recovery though, using TWRP)

I posted some questions in this thread earlier, and after some research, here is what I think will work:

Take the firmware only zip from this thread (without Boot.img, v4.10.605.3) and flash using TWRP. What I'm unsure of is if I can do that, or if I should follow the fastbook directions in the thread. I'm going to try to the former (and do nandroid backup first so I can rollback in case of disaster).
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Uzephi:
Fastboot is a better, and safer option than recovery.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] K0CAW:
Here's my (non-root, 100% stock) two-cent observations on the update so far.

The black versions of some stock HTC widgets appear to be gone. I was using the black 4x1 Weather Clock, and now it's been forced into a jarring (with my phone's theme) white.

The indicator for letting you know which homescreen panel you are on is huge, and everything has been awkwardly pushed up to make room for it. I could have sworn there was an option to turn off this indicator before, but I could be wrong.

The Quick Settings panel is now locked into a black/green theme. I personally prefer the black/blue, but there appears to be no option to change this anymore. (Again, perhaps there wasn't before either?)

Some scrolling widgets (a la Agenda Widget Plus) are now broken. This appears to be an ongoing issue with 4.4.2, and it was my own fault for not doing enough research beforehand, but I wanted others to be aware just in case. Other scrolling widgets, like the Google Keep widget, still work just fine.

I'm also showing that Blinkfeed is taking up a sizable chunk of the battery, even though it was disabled. I haven't yet verified that the battery is actually dying any faster, but will let you know.

Granted, most of these are stylistic problems, but overall I feel that my phone looked quite a bit cleaner before the update. Everything else seems to be performing fine, and time will tell if the BlinkFeed battery issue is a real problem.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] YadGadge:
This is the part annoying me the most, it is huge, and unnecessary (maybe someone out there finds it useful? Someone must if they implemented it.. right?). Just seems like wasted screen space, serves no purpose but to show what page you're on and now that I can remove the blinkfeed page I only have 2 pages. I had also made a custom wallpaper that worked with the way the icons on my screen were laid out, but now that's all messed up. I also couldn't find an option anywhere to turn it off, and with how long they take to push updates out, even if they do add the option later we're stuck with it for a while.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] rockingrubberducky:
I'm rooted with TWRP and on the stock Verizon and HTC ROM. Can I flash the OTAPkg.zip from here: http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23501681358539258 in TWRP?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] gadgetrants:
Thanks, nice post. RE: Blinkfeed, maybe I'm the only guy on the block who likes and uses it, so I'll add: for some odd reason they've added the dock buttons to the bottom of the display (overlaid on top of the feed), which looks incredibly annoying and stupid. I liked it better when they were left off but eh what can you do.

EDIT: just checked usage on Blinkfeed in System Panel (with history turned on) and it's showing Blinkfeed at 1m53s (0.1% CPU) over the last 2 days. This is a really counter-intuitive thought, but maybe those of you who have it turned off (how do you do that, by the way?) might consider turning it on and then setting a minimum number of channels on it (I think I have 4, with things like "calendar" and "album" excluded). (I also have "auto-refresh" set to wi-fi only)

Also find the day/night weather/clock widget color issue really dumb. I don't mind it but sheesh at least give us the option to stick with one color if we prefer it. On a related note, the background on the people widget is also white -- I have 8 favorites, which means a huge chunk of the widget is just loud, white, wasted screen space.

Did you also notice -- on the lockscreen clock/widget -- that it acts a bit weird? I mean: if you swipe the widget downward, the screen dims and you get an elongated rectangle (looks like a resize-widget frame but it's not). Apparently it designates that now the clock and weather icons can be tapped. Kind of crappy user-interaction if you ask me.

whats up everyone? i bought an htc one off of craigslist a few months ago and i just got the update notification but i'm having some issues. i installed it but when it rebooted it took me to TWRP but it i dont know where the zip file is to complete the install. i used the root checker app to see if i'm rooted, and i am. i also checked HBOOT and it says i'm S-OFF. i'm completey new (and suprised and interested) at all the info in this thread. how do i complete the install? also, what can i do with a rooted phone?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Uzephi:
Go to development section, there is a thread by Santod that has the stock recovery to flash via bootloader.

I flashed that firmware.zip (using fastboot). Everythign went exactly according to the instrutions. However I'm still on 3.11.605.1 and Sense 5.5. Restoring from nandroid backup now...

Is there a way for me to install the full update (4.10.605.3), while preserving s-off, unlock, root, and without factory reset?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] false_apology:
Yea, same thing happened to me. I think I misunderstood the purpose of that zip, maybe it is just the radio? I'm also looking to do the same thing. I was thinking of just flashing back the factory recovery so I can install the OTA, or just taking the plunge and flash a cooked rom with the update included.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Uzephi:
Flash stock recovery and take the ota. You will not lose s-off or lock status
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] hippopo:
It starts the update, but stops at about 40% and then shows the screen with a phone and red triangle and exclamation mark.

Is it because I flashed that firmware.zip earlier? But afterwards I restored the system from nandroid backup...
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Uzephi:
Did you by chance have anything frozen or uninstalled? Or maybe it could be because of root. I know it isn't s-off or lock status. I rumrunner my recent phone then took all otas before installing twrp
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] hippopo:
Finally, a success!

I had to flash the stock recovery from here: http://xdaforums.com/devdb/project/dl/?id=3992

But before that I also had to restore tethering to its original state: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2576548

After this the OTA was taken successfully.

Then I flashed TWRP, entered it, and flashed SuperSU and new tethering fix, and now I'm back in business!

Thank you!
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] GrayBoltWolf:
That firmware.zip just updates the firmware and baseband. Nothing to do with which version of the ROM you are on.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] brymaster5000:
Just to support this a little further, if you are about to flash something on your phone now that you have root, you need to be 100% sure you know what it does to your phone. Just flashing an update or something because it's the latest might brick your phone if you don't know what it's for and flash it in the wrong way or if it was meant for one version but you're on another.

Please be careful and do a little Google search on what you are interested in first before flashing. Just trying to keep some new additions to the family here from ending up with a paper weight.

[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Uzephi:
To iterate further, always do an md5 check. Sometimes a download can get corrupt and that can hard brick your phone also
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] GrayBoltWolf:
MD5 on ROMs isn't that big of a deal. But anything else like splash screens, hboot, firmware updates, RUUs, recoveries, etc should be checked.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] theunderfighter:
Okay... So for those of us that have never rooted this phone, and just recently did the Sense6 update, is there any way to root yet?
