Hey everybody,
My HTC One X has developed an interesting problem over the last few days. I hit the unlock button the other night and my screen did this weird rainbow fuzz storm thing. Ever since, the screen has been glitching from time to time and it appears to be getting worse. Sometimes it will be discolored, the ratio with be wrong and the icons will be skewed. It gets stuck too and won't wake up. I'll hit the unlock button and the capacitive buttons will light up, but the screen won't come on.
Any idea what's going on? Hardware issue? Software?
It might be worthy to note that I've had this phone coming up now on almost two years with no issues.
Thanks
If you still have warranty I mean if its still bought less then two years ago sent in for warranty you can't do anything for that...that's a hardware problem ...

It's an international variant of the phone and I'm in the US, don't think I've got any warranty really. Maybe that new Nexus 5 is calling my name...
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
May someone can build a Marshmallow Custom Rom? (CM13 for example). I would do that myself, but i don't have the recources to do that.
I realy want to see the development status of Marshmallow
Thanks
arent we still struggling with cm12? surely itll be a while
OK i'll wait

You almost certainly won't see it until HTC releases the source for Marshmallow on the M9.
Thanks for the information

you might see someone port from the A9 sooner
I will definitely be working on cm13 in the near future

Realy? That's great to hear
Ask me if you need a tester

How is the status of CM13?[emoji7]

A9 has been ported to the M8.
If this is possible I'm sure someone may be able to port it to the M9.
I however am not great at porting so it won't be me, but I'd like to see MM on the M9.

If I'm understanding the situation correctly (a dubious bet at best), the A9 to M8 port is still the stock Sense experience. Going from that to an AOSP ROM will involve quite a bit of work. It probably not possible - or at least not very worthwhile - to build a stable AOSP ROM of the newest version of Android on the M9 using another device's firmware.
On a happy note, HTC has said that the M9 is getting Android 6.0. The exact timeline was somewhat unclear. The consensus seems to be that it will be releases somewhere at the end of this month or the beginning of January.

Both m8 and m9 are being tested now for Android 6.0.
A more precise timeline will come once more time is tested on the devices and fixing bugs.

It has been in 3rd cert stage for quite a while. It is due before Christmas, most likely first week of December if following "beginning end of 2015".
I wish I stole my HTC M9.

I havent done a port before, but I think there may be some issues since A8/M8 are 32bit and M9 is 64.
I currently have the note 5. Before that the s5. I love to have options to flash different roms. But I have been on Sammy for the last 10 yearso and know nothing of flashing, rooting or installing custom recovery on htc. I awaited the s7 only to find out it was locked down. Same with the other Samsung. No development. So I'm looking at the htc 10. Will there be a ton of development for htc 10 sprint? Is it hard to root , recovery& flash roms? I had so much development for the s5 I miss those days

My experience with the HTC and setting it up was wonderful. I received it yesterday, and got off work about 5:00, and took it out of the plastic when I got to the hotel I'm staying at. By 9:00 PM I had fired it up, used S-Off to unlock it, flashed TWRP via fastboot, then made a backup, wiped it, and flashed a custom rom.
I'm usually a pre-order guy when I buy flagships, the M10 has been awesome because I was able to achieve s-off after unboxing it, which is the HTC version of allowing flashing recovery, roms, firmware radios, etc from TWRP or a custom recovery.
I can't thank the Sunshine team enough for making an app that allows me to pay $25 for the license, and unlock the phone simply by following the instructions. I've been rooting phones long enough that I previously had to hold a paperclip shorting two pins on the mother board while counting a certain number of seconds and typing commands with other hand to be able to upgrade firmware. So I really appreciate an app that does all the work, and allows me to get right down to business backing up and wiping. Literally, the hardest part of the setup was pointing the device to the right drivers in Windows 10, and that was a computer issue not the phone.
However, I'm an HTC guy, and you've been with Samsung a while. I've installed multiple Sense roms so far, which are HTC based, although VERY custom roms. I can't testify to the AOSP roms and their kernels yet, someone else will have to testify to that, if you're considering that route from the start.
For me, it's a great device so far. It works really well with my Pioneer blue tooth/hands free system in the car that I've been using for voice command searches and navigation, video streaming to my media players, and audio streaming with Pandora, iHeartRadio, google music, etc.
Call quality has been good, and I'm very happy with the build quality and finish of the device in general. I bought it outright from HTC, so I was apprehensive to pull the trigger at retail price, but I don't finance my devices.
Since I'm a fan of sense roms, it was worth it to me to pay more and get a better device experience for my taste than with some of the nexus (not as much cheaper as they used to be) or one of the blu oppo or CM type unlocked phones.
Pretty much what the above poster said. You may not find the sheer quantity of different ROMs that you would find on previous popular Samsung phones (or even previous HTC flagships), but still lots and lots of options. Take a look at the main 10 Dev forum, plenty of great running choices. Similarly I only stick to Sense ROMs so I can't tell you much about AOSP or CM specifically, but that's only because Sense is such a smooth, reliable and enjoyable experience for me. This is the main reason I went for the 10, having previously owned an M7 as well.
For me it comes down to this: Software-wise, if you're someone who makes use of and can't live without all of the small TouchWiz features and add-ons (e.g. hovering your hand to take screenshots, multi-windows, etc) and don't really care as much about having a consistently fluid experience, then stick with Samsung. Otherwise, Sense is the better product imo.
Thanks guys. I generally turn off all those silly features and tune the romantic more for speed

The chances are great you will love the HTC10. I own all the galaxy S series from the S blaze to the S7, also the note 5 and the note 3 and I can honestly say I would trade any 1 of them for the HTC10!!! I got my HTC10 on release and have not looked back. I am loving the hell out it lol.

Why don't you wait until Tuesday to say what Google has to offer with both the pixel and pixel xl ?

I am waiting, but only because I anticipate their release will herald a price drop in the HTC 10. I don't expect the Pixel phones to come with an SD reader, so unless they blow my mind, I doubt I'll be getting one.
Sense is such a lightweight functional skin now with really good features I really can't see the point in getting a pixel instead of this device, I can see why the pixel XL with a bigger screen would be a consideration, really wish htc would make a 5.5" 10... Got to say as well as I run a few phones htc moving the back and recent keys either side of the home button was a genius move... Had a lot of phones this HTC 10 in my opinion is as good as anything else out there at the moment...

Yes I have. Works the same as on my M7. Mirrorlink also works though a bit useless for me.
HTC M10 Currently $150 may help makeup your mind

The s9 seems to be a great device regarding the hardware and the camera. On top, there is an existing developer community, which is especially good, as I really don't like Samsung UI and software. But with aosp or lineage, this could be my next phone.
How's the camera performing with custom roms by now, and what could I probably expect, for example in low light?
