Hi All,
I was just looking for some assistance as I am interested in the dual sim variant of the HTC one M8.
I have been searching the web and can see that it is stated to have been launched. I have also noticed there are 2 threads here relating to rooting it.
The 2 questions I have are:
1 - Where can I buy one from?
2 - Would it be better to get the Chinese or European version to works properly in Australia.
I have also seen that there is another Dual Sim variant to be released next month that is marked as LTE-A. Is there any reason to wait for this variant or with mobile services in Australia I will not see any benefit.
Thank you all for your assistance and I look forward to hearing from you soon.
Hi! I bought it from microspot.ch
I don't know which frequencies you are using in Australia but the advantage of the European version is the non-existing Chinese apps
Compare the stated frequency support to what your carrier uses in the lists linked below.

Thanks all.
Have you been able to root the Chinese one and remove the non existent apps?
So... It seems no real advantage between the Chinese and European version.
Does anyone know any details about the LTE-A Dual Sim coming soon?

I got in contact with microspot.ch and they will not deliver outside of Switzerland. Also, I do not think they have any stock.
Are there any tricks to get deliveries outside of the EU or does anyone know of any other places to try?
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Hey guys!
I was thinking to purchase the HTC One M8 but I am a little confused between the two variants. I will prefer the dual SIM variant but I need to know if there is any difference in development between the two? Are all the ROMs and MODs compatible between the two device? Because, if not then I would need to scrap the idea of getting the dual SIM edition. The processors and chipset are the same between the two I guess. Your knowledge would be much appreciated.

Hello,
With Version 5.1, Android has now nativ dual Sim support. May I now able to install Cyanogenmod 12.1 on a HTC One M8 Dual Sim without any problems?
Is this question to difficult to answer?
Or is there nobody with a HTC dual sim outside?

well, there are plenty of us out here with dual sim versions and you are right as thats what is advertised with 5.1, dual (or multi) sim support without additional software.
if it really does work like that it would give us the full choice of any custom roms from 5.1 onwards.
would be real nice to give it a try, er, anyone?
Hello guys! I want to buy this phone, but I'm a bit confused between those two versions. My service provider/carrier in my city is currently out of stock for classic M8 (original first version), and they offered me M8 dual sim instead... but some people told me that dual sim version is not supported by devs. Is that true? And is there any other difference between those 2 versions, in specs etc... ?

That thread has hints about dual sim phones. It's also located in the Q&A section, that's where you thread should be located too ! Not sure why you opened it in the general section ?
And no the dual sim is pretty much not supported by devs. Just a couple of roms are maintained for it ! Even a bit of googling would have told you that
I currently have an HTC One M8 Dual Sim and would love to upgrade for the HTC 10, I haven't seen anything about a dual sim version. Any info on this?
Thanks
I bump the question as I'm definately interested in one...
Me 2. I would buy this 100% sure, if i can get it with dual sim

Same here. I have the HTC One ME, which is a M9 varient with dual sim. Hoping a dual sim model comes out with the 820 chip. HTC seems to generally give dual sim models with the less powerful CPU. I don't know why they don't make dual sim a standard feature with their premium flagship models.
I need one as I have a data sim. Currently using Huawei mate 8.. I sold my nexus 6p cuz it wasn't a dual.. Hoping for a m10 plus version with 820sd and dual sim. If not there are always those other ****ty brands who would keep my addiction going.

Apparently, Htc should release a dual sim version later on, although this feature might only be available in a few countries. (according to several android websites).
Let's hope for the best!
any news about this dualsim??
Yes, please! I will take two..! ??

The only reasonably usable information I found under bludiode.eu "10-dual-sim-32gb-lte-grey"
I also would like to see a htc 10 dual sim.
I emailed HTC hong kong and this was their reply

SO i dont know if that means they dont know or ???
Given that both Sony xperia Z5 & samsung S7 have already got dual sims out in the market im not sure why HTC havn't already released one. I would buy one.
Honestly I don't think there will ever be one.
Why there isn't one already is a mystery. I would buy it in a heartbeat

means they've politely said it won't be happening with htc 10.
i never could get with the idea of dual sim probably its an excuse for me to use two different device independently and more flashing
I would really like to get it if its a Dual sim. The samsung S7 apparently you can either use 2 dual sims or 1 sim and a SD card which is pointless. Where as htc m8 use all three.
Looks like Sony xperia X5/X5 Premium. unless anyone else has any other suggestions.
Apparently now HTC are planning to releaser a Desire 10 (htc 10 cheaper sibling) at the end of september. These tend to come in dual sim variants. Suppose it might be a better alternative compared to the m8 dual sim i currently have. You never know they may just release a dual sim for the 10 around that time. These guys need to get as many sales as they can for this flagship. Its like a sinking ship at the moment. I went into the phone showrooms and none of them had any display working models for the htc 10. So seems htc arent really spending on advertising or people just dont like the phone
They really need to release this model
Yesterday I saw HTC 10 Dual sim
64gb but unfortunately 3gb Ram.
I found this one today. Is it a cheaper version called Desire 10?
In the past I tried a Desire 8, I think, LCD screen resolution was awful and I did not have access to all HTC sofware features like professional email or some apps on the marketplace!!!! I thought the cheap version had only cheap hardware but it was very bad experience. I returned it and bought the HTC M8 dual sim.

is it good to upgrade to this one? or is it cheaper version of HTC 10

I will also like to go back to htc (I had an htc one M8 CDMA/GSM earlier) but with R Jio I need a dual SIM.
