I posted this in another section, and was guided that here would be more suitable.
I found this article...
According to the HTC Android L update schedule that leaked through LlabTooFeR and xdadevelopers, it appears that all of the 2014 and 2013 HTC devices will receive the much anticipated Android L update. This means that the HTC One M8, HTC One M7 will have the Android L update as well as the various variants such as Google Play Edition, HTC One M8 Ace and HTC One Mini 2 among others. .
LlabTooFeR reveals that the system requirements of the Android L are not known yet. Thus far, all we have is the Android L developer's preview, which is only available to install to the Nexus 5 and Nexus 7 (2013). At this point, the HTC devices are still in their evaluation period hence, the update is expected to come in October or December.
LlabTooFeR is examining a number of devices, which include the HTC One M8, HTC One M8 One Dual SIM, HTC One Mini 2, HTC One E8 (M8 Ace), HTC One M7, One Dual SIM HTC One M7, HTAC One Max, HTC One Mini, HTC Butterfly S, HTC Desire 816 and HTC Desire 610.
Apart from the devices that will get the Android L update, the HTC Android L update schedule also reveals the HTC devices that will not receive the update. The HTC One X and the 1st gen HTC Butterfly will not get the update and according to Xdadevelopers, it appears that the HTC One M8 and HTC One M77 will go straight to the Android 4.4.4 update from Android 4.4.2 in July and August respectively.

The thing that caught my eye in fear is that the HTC One X will not be receiving an Android L update at all.(not talking about official update, the One x didn`t receive any official update from HTC since Jelly Bean I believe).
Can anyone confirm this?
I mean, I know that XDA is "notorious" for doing updates for outdated phones, and the HTC One X is still a great build, great design, and a great phone overall... Would really like to see it get XDA Android L be it Stock-ish or HTC-ish...
Nothing to do with xda which phone receives an update or not, it depends on if there are developers willing to take on the project and if they can get it running with the sources available and knowledge they have.

Any ideea if that might occur for the One X?
Since one x is kinda became old and many one x devs have switched to other models to work on..... best thing to do is to sit and wait

Hey,
I've recently switched back to android and im now looking into the next phone I want. At the moment, I'm looking into the one X+ as I assume it is capable of running the MIUI OS that the One X runs.
My questions is, is it possible to run the HTC One X version of MIUI on the ONE X+? (BTW, im referring to the international/European versions)
Hey there,
when I first went for android I bought the HTC Desire HD and absolutely loved it. How ever my next phone was the Nexus 4 which I loved even more. Fast updates, a lot of 3rd party development (Kernel, ROM, etc) and very cheap.
How ever, today I read that the HTC One M8 DUAL SIM will come to Europe. This is very handy for me as I carry my private + business phone 24/7. Now my question is:
How is the HTC One M8 holding up compared to the Nexus 4/5 in terms of 3rd party development?
For example on the nExus 4 there is "Franco.Kernel" which seems to offer A LOT of improvement and testing and I absolutely don't want to miss a few of its features (for example screen color calibration). The "only" kernel I saw on the HTC One M8 was faux kernel. For ROM's I saw that Paranoid Android is also avi on the HTC One, but is it also as good as on the Nexus 4/5 ?
Android Revolution HD (the ROM I used on my HTC Desire HD) surely is still a very good ROM but based on the older Android version. So I would prefer PA.
Also I am reading a lot about t-mobile or verizon HTC One M8. Is there any difference to the european version ?
Thanks
HTC One XL/AT&T HTC One X - Sense 6 Android 4.4.2…: http://youtu.be/GlRQLlyLhuY
Hmm sense 6
Why you post this video in this section?
Maybe you want give hint to help devs port sense 6 rom on this model?
Just curious [emoji57]
Tap via Tapatalk
Full sense 6 will not be ported. Check out viper x as its has parts of sense 6 ported...even they won't attempt it because it gives way to many errors in general ! So let the dream go is my opinion. The device is outdated for many devs and have jumped ship to at least the M8. And most of the time when something like this is posted it only counts for the evita version as it has different hardware to our international one x.
It's not gonna happen
Press Release:
HTC is debuting a new “Eye experience,” which is a brand new camera software suite. The new camera software has an auto selfie feature, which automatically takes the photo once the phone has been held steady for a couple seconds, and voice commands including “Say Cheese” and “Action” will snap a photo or start recording video automatically.

Will it come to the M8?
We can already do the front and rear cameras at the same time now. I'd like the voice commands.

Thanks everyone. Since I'm waiting till my warranty runs out to s-off and root I guess I'll just have to wait for the next OTA to get it. No big deal just saw the presser's yesterday about the new HTC Eye phone and the "Eye Experience" software and thought I'd asked here about it.

Hi this phone will get android 6.0 too i asked htc one facebook and sayed "We don't have any news for Android updates to the One M8S at this time, but stay tuned to our social channels"
some1 know more about this phone
Lol you asked HTC already ! Who else should answer this ?! Your question is answered already before you opened this thread. You seem to open threads for obsolete questions or questions that are answered easily via google. Please search a bit better the next time before opening another one.......
Ah yeah and thanks for the answer to your previous question about the gorilla glass ?
Really !
It is suppose to get a 6.0 update, but who knows when. I've seen PunkUnity mentioning that he was doing something with the new 6.0 code, but maybe its for a nexus device. I believe I might of seen LLab mention something about the new update. I don't see anything special about 6.0 other than maybe 2 things, and most of the new UI features seem to be pulled straight from the custom ROM community, which doesn't surprise me.

It would be absolutely stupid if the M8 doesn't receive the 6.0 update, to be quite honest. For one thing, there's only one newer model (M9) and the hardware specifications on the M8 are quite good and up-to-date.
i sayed for M8S not M8 is not same phone xd
Oh my bad! I didn't even know there was a M8s out there, unless it's the one with a better camera (M8 eye?). Either way they seem to share the same specifications so I'd say it will receive it as well.
it have 13mp but snapdragon 615 octa core
