Is the Harman Kardon - Sprint deal true? - One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

http://bgr.com/2014/04/10/sprint-htc-one-m8-harman-kardon-edition/
Allegedly Sprint and Harman Kardon have done a speaker deal which is exclusive to Sprint customers. Would HTC actually alter a complete production line for one carrier?
If true seems a bit of a crappy thing to do to others?
It seems there is a line in the default.xml to enable it. (similar to Beats audio)
Having flashed to the RUU GPE conversion I don't have the stock default.xml so can't check.
Apparently there is also an RUU out for Sprint customers
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2729173

I'm hoping it's just a eq like the beats audio software, if not I'll be a sad panda

you can activate harman/kardon feature on default.xml file but for me I'm not noticing any diff

Are the speakers made by h/k?
Actually probably not made by them but maybe they helped with the amp and tuning it

File is in
system/customise/ACC/ Default.xml
Look for the line that has harman in it and change value to true. You might want to change the boomsound to false.
As always keep a backup

It's in the International Rom in the default xml that's right, however the libs are missing. Same as wen can enable the beats toggle but due missing libs, it's just a useless toggle. That's why you guys don't here a difference
However my team is looking into that and is going to try to make it work for us international users too.

So you believe it is simply a software issue and the hardware is the same? Would the RUU the Sprint users have hold the libs?

No. I bought my phone new on Allegro, it's polish alternative of Ebay, very popular. The description was saying that the phone is 100% unbranded, so I thought that CID is also "normal". So, I didn't know that I will have that crap CID.

I don't think Windows RT has been ported to any unofficial device yet. I'm not sure if it's possible since the OS itself is closed source., and drivers can only help so much. It would be interesting to see someone try, though.

Another thing we should probably consider is: Will our bootloaders allow NT kernels to boot on our device? If so, wouldn't we need s-off anyway?

I mean that if you flash h/k over boomsound then you cannot enable boomsound.All you will get is the h/k.And vice versa.
I mean you cannot use both at same time.

Read what we wrote...also all needed information can be found in Harman kardon thread...if you flashed h/k mod you could enable in the default.xml file a line to show the BoomSound toggle in settings,BUT!! it won't do anything...only ONE of those things can work...if you flashed H/K then only that...if you are using BoomSound you can use it together with h/k and vise versa...
So yea that should be now answered...
