Hey All,
Long-time lurker, first-time post. Previous smartphones were Nexus devices (Sprint Nexus S, VZW Galaxy Nexus), so I never really needed to post. Everything was all there to tinker with.
I got the VZW HTC One a day or two after the HTCDev unlock was blocked, so I am stock, locked, and non-rooted. Quite an adjustment going from crack-flasher to locked-down, but I digress.
I was browsing around and noticed that an OTA was being pushed out, updating from 1.10.605.8 to 1.10.605.10. Having seen some others screwed by OTA updates, I know better than to even try to check for one, let alone accept installation. That, however, is where it gets interesting for me. I noticed that I am running 1.10.605.2. I haven't seen anything via Google searches, nor have I seen anything else on XDA regarding this build version.
So, on to my question: Can I be of any help with this build version that I can find no other mention of elsewhere? I work all day and have a wife and son at home, so I'm not on much, but I do check the forums in the mornings and evenings. If there's anything I can provide from my device that could be of help to someone, let me know, and I will do everything I can to provide it.
If you can, screenshot the software number in the About Device section.

man that is insane..
what does your box say?
there will be a sticker on your phones box it came in, on the outside, it will say what software version it has installed, see if it even matches..
also check the IMEI
also is your phone S-ON?
maybe you got some early version that is S-OFF?
I am sure you would have seen but figured I'd ask.

I'll check the box when I get home, as long as my wife hasn't disposed of it yet... She doesn't see the value of keeping OEM packaging.
Definitely S-ON though...

very strange, what about an update? you should be able to take the OTA.
but if you want root, don't take it.

Okay so I'm home, and I have the box. The version part of the label is as yours is. It's a relabel. See attached picture. I zoomed way in on yours, and underneath your label, it has the old version, as mine does. Mine just didn't actually get updated, I guess.

So now the question is, can this be useful in the exploit/unlock hunt, or is it just a fluke with currently unknown repercussions? Since my HBOOT is the same, I'm leaning towards fluke.
Anyway, if anyone wants me to try anything, let me know, and I will try as time permits.

Unfortunately I don't think it is useful unless it had a lower hboot or something, we can't downgrade, and whatever exploit that may have been in that software may have been patched before release and took longer to release who knows.
Still 4.4.2
Software version changed from D85110m to D85110r
What a disappointment.
Also, if Lollipop is coming out so soon, why are we getting a 4.4.2 update now??
This is the 3rd update I've received. One when I first bought it(a week after release). In early December I received one to enable Wi-Fi calling features and inflight texting(which is awesome, by the way). I wonder what the heck this recent one does.
I work at T-Mobile in IT, I should probably be able to answer this, hah.
Yeah...when I saw that one come in at 250 +/- MBs I knew it wasn't lollipop.
I just got the notification what changes did this update bring

Yeah I still haven't gotten it on stock. I even hooked it up to the pc and Lg support says I have an upgrade available for a second then switches to saying I have the latest version. I have no intention on taking this one but still really weird.
On Tmobile my Lollipop update came through on 1/6.
I just received this two days ago too and since then my phone is actually slower!
I loved when I got the phone that it was crazy snappy and did not redraw the home screen or the app drawer each time and now it does.
If I hit home after being in an app long it stutters. If I use the app drawer, it stutters.
It never used to do that!
Anyone have any ideas what to do? I could factory reset but then I'd still have the notification about the update constantly there...

Just got my OTA.. time to restore theme and update!

PS: Downloading now
just throwing my personal experience out there.
After updating, i had super crappy reception and extremely slow speeds. i actually ended up flashing just the radio from "8.0.0 (OPR6.170623.012, Aug 2017)" to get decent service back.

You need root first. Without root it won't happen. Unlocking it is easy, getting privs to perform the unlock is the issue.

I did the exact same thing
My update seems to fix the blue tooth problem I had in a 2017 Tahoo with the phone not working. I think at this point it may have fixed the battery life issue I was having too. That may be too soon to tell.
nope battery still is draining fast. Not sure why. It did not seem to start until I installed O in beta. I thought maybe it would have fixed it self, But did not as of now.

i can also confirm that reception has decreased. i travel weekly into a low coverage area and always got service but 1 bar with some 3G and now i just get no service in those areas.
I have gotten the best battery life out of September I've ever had. Wonder why your phones are different.
I run Tasker and get lots of cloud messages.

No. It is not unlockable, period. Nothing is broken at all. They intentionally lock the BL and don't allow unlocking it. There's no other way or exploits to unlock it.

It is a great phone honestly but the fingerprint scanner really really sucks. I just went ahead and disabled it because its so bad and I have up to the January patch.

magisk requires an unlocked bl.. period.. installing it in daemon mode or system mode is also possible but that defeats the purpose and you need an unlocked bl to even do that

Actually thinking about it i have forced magisk into a phone with a locked bootloader (figo gravity...idk lol long time ago) but on 6.0...im sure that samsung has more security on their phones so it might not let me force the img through odin since its not even signed.

again, magisk requires an unlocked bl to use. this has always been the case. and no u cant force flash in odin.
