Wow that's what I'm talking about sprint can you tell me everything that is included in the update
Sent from my PG86100 using Tapatalk

Sprint customer service--in the past 6 years anyway--has never let me down and never fails to impress me.

The only listed item is for calendar entries that were force closing when they were being edited. Beyond that we have no information that anything else was included. The issue seems to have been enough to warrant a maintenance release apparently.

If you are who you say you are, any reason why this isn't unlocked? I mean, for real. Think about it... The devs on xda pretty much decide shoot to which phones are purchased due to the customability and let me just say, after 100's of hours of deving on the EVO, I will not be happy if the 3d isn't rooted sooner than later..
Kick it in gear and get us the unlock update

What information do you have on the (what I presume would be an) OTA that will address the crypto-signed bootloader that HTC promised to "unlock" for us?
...and if not an OTA form will it be an RUU? If not that, then what? This is a MAJOR ISSUE to all of us here...if it is not addressed to our satisfaction I don't think it is an exaggeration to say that +95% of us WILL return our phones in 30 days.
In summation, how will this issue be address by HTC and/or Sprint?

I'd imagine the fact that hundreds of thousands of phones were already manufactured and packaged played into this...not to mention the corporate rigamarole involved in software development and then the politics involved in every department, subsidiary, manager and then the same at Sprint having to play their game...

My troll radar is screwy on this...

No need to monitor xda if the phone can't be rooted.

And a simple ota would solve all that. I'm sticking with my original thoughts. Seriously, how many people follow myn or virus and decide to get phone they use because of what team synergy is working on? Trust me, 2 million hits on rl5 alone for myn. Tmartin and myself watched 150k hits in a couple days when we ported the first sense 3 to the EVO.... Before kingdom... Trust me...non devs get like phones of great devs and a simple ota to unlock it is an easy fix... Not to mention keep strong loyalty for future evos... And better yet, sell a lot more once it hits xda that its rootable.
Just a thought

I don't know....XDA is a rather renowned entity these days, especially in this business. i wouldn't be shocked to hear they devoted one $12 an hour lacky to keep an eye on it...though, I'd also be surprised if that lacky had the meaty information we actually want.
...then why send him here?
But then again, Sprint reps I've talked to are universally less useful than most people on here (excepting, of course, Sprint employees who work here--never met one)...
..but then again, that would further illustrate how out of touch they are...
...but then again that would be a fantastic trolling angle...

The fact that they responded the same day is saying something. I really don't want to get a Samsung because of the lack of updates.

Let's see what they say. This doesn't just effect HTC but the Evo 4G has been their top selling handset. Granted, Nexus 4G is what we (well, lots of us) will go to but the ability to customize our devices could easily move people away from Sprint.

Not sure what updates you are referring to but the Nexus gets updates first in most cases as it's "pure Google". I guess this might be bad if you are a believer in and reliant on Sense but for the AOSP group, it's AOK because it's what we are all trying to get to anyway.
I want to stick with HTC and the Evo/Evo 3D but may have to jump ship. Look on the bright side, at least our wireless provider HAS the next best thing.

I think he was probably referring to the Galaxy S II. A lot of people see the NS4G as old tech and not worth the purchase. Accordingly, they see the SGS2 as the next best thing if the EVO3D will retain the status of the locked bootloader.

That's pretty much how I read it. They're probably going to give some generic statement about why they're doing what they're doing and not change their position one bit.
Man if they overturn this decision I will buy an EVO 3D for every member on here! Not getting my hopes up though.

Makes sense... I just get antsy when I'm up for an upgrade and I sometimes forget not everyone is on the 12 month plan. Nexus, yes... Galaxy and new carrier, I never even considered it but the 3D situation surely does suck all the way around.
Sprint is geting the Galaxy S II.. It will be called the Samsung Within, and it will be the exact same as Verizon and AT&T's... No Keyboard.

everyone who hasnt, go preorder! lol... before we get the guarantee that they will release a key or what have you for the 3D
+ America, F*ck Yea!
HTC is now the most respected company in the mobile business now. Best PR move they have ever made.
I know who's phones I will continue to buy. I really hope it applies to the Evo3D.
I was so pissed and so certain that they wouldn't do anything but lip service that I nearly got a NexusS4G today....I was so amped on getting a new phone that I didn't care what it was--so long as it wasn't from HTC.
...glad I didn't do that. Preorder is still on... eff year
This is why I didn't cancel my pre-order. Imagine if people tried this against apple. Wouldn't get anywhere...

Release date and what we need to do.

Basically at this point I feel sprint has no intention of releasing the date anytime soon for the 3d release date. So what I feel we need to do is all of us need to contact sprint as much and often as possible to try and force some info out of them. I can sit here and find out release for movies and games 6 months in advance but cant get any info out of sprint other then soon. I feel we need to show sprint there is a demand for information and customers dont like being in the dark when sprint already has a good bit of our money in pocket. All we have been asking for is a date thats all we want. So I encourage u to call and email sprint as much as u can.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA Premium App
Meh. It'll be released when its ready. Just deal with the fact of not knowing and get over it. Knowing when its coming wont change the date you get it in your hands.

Sent from my HTC Evo
Its not really about getting my hands on it. its more about the fact that I did them a service by handing over my money for my pre order. I just want them to respect that enough to tell me what I feel is vital information. I would like to schedule my day off with the release date so I can explore my new phone. I cant do that without a date. Unfortunately I work at a place that I cannot just call in sick or use personal days without notice.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA Premium App
Its not going to happen man. Its really not even worth the time sitting on the phone to harass Sprint to even get the information. Yes it would be nice to have, but they will let us know more when more information is ready. They aren't going to say, HEY its coming out tomorrow, HOPE YOUR READY. They will give you ample time for you to make plans if you need. I can be almost certain of this. Be patient.
At this point I'm more excited to see these stupid threads go away than actually getting my 3D.

To be honest I believe everyone that has a source is probably telling the truth. The reason why alot of the sources come with a different date is probably because not even sprint knows yet. Any effort to try to gain knowledge of a release would be pointless and really noone would join in.

Dude!!! It's just a phone. Be cool!!! It will be released when they decide to release it. I'm sure you will be able to survive....good grief man
I would rather not hear a release date, and let them get the phone compleatly finished and get enough unit out to the store to keep shortages from happening, then to get a release date b4 they know if they can be fully ready or not.

What we should do is open more threads on the same thing. That way we can flood XDA, and then Sprint will notice and tell us the release date. It's a fool proof plan.

Hmm it showed up yesterday as it was protected and you cant see the tweets unless you're following. Wouldn't it just show as you can't view the page instead of it just "this page no longer exists"? I really don't use twitter much :x.
He probably stopped tweeting stuff so he wouldn't get trolled (as much) anymore, he's been putting up with a lot of **** lately and I'm sure he's getting tired of it. Wouldn't you?
not if hes asking for it
Not sure about the twitter thing...
From what I gathered from some of the back and forth, he managed a signature bypass flash that changed the cid of the phone that allowed the HTC unlock tool to work.

If you look at the history of this it was first claimed on Nov 21st to be successful. That is almost a month ago. Really i have stopped looking. His credibility is completely destroyed.
Really im not even convinced he is an adult. His rantings are about at the level of an 8th grader. An immature 8th grader.
I mean by All means support him. Just please stop defending him and judging xda members from having expectations. If he doesn't want trolled or bothered for his method then he shouldn't claim success and post that a release is on the way.
If you look in the evo 3d general the same drama with the same banned dev is causing the same bs as here.
And if he achieve a method that's awesome. what im saying is it has caused a huge amount of discord and bitterness here on xda and you don't put yourself out there like he has and not expect comments, critiques etc from the community.

I've been following his progress over there for about 2-3 weeks and I keep expecting a release, but haven't seen anything that we can actually use yet. I believe he has made progress but the whole "I'll release it tomorrow" deal is getting old.
I followed a company (AngelBird) that was going to release a revolutionary PCI-E modular SSD and they pulled the same bull****, every time someone asked when it was going be released it was another empty promise (soon!, we're starting to take pre-orders now, it will be released in the next few weeks, etc...). Most of their prospective customers left and I just followed them to see how long it would take for them to release the product, they finally released it a year later and AFAIK no on has really bought it since they kept dicking around.

Exactly. This was suppose to be done almost a month ago and then some BS story is made.
Fine, but then makes a forum to get "help" and says he has root tobe released tonight and nothing.
Hes a attention whore and an immature "adult" acts like a really disturbed mental case at this point. Im not the one to demand anything but when you make empty promises, and keep o. Bs stories and get mad when your trolled then you just ask for it.
If he accomplishes it, great. But imo i dont think hes close and his creditablity drains each day.

[Q] Hurry the Change to 4.2.2 for ATT HTC One!

Where is the up the 4.2.2 update for the US? HTC needs to stop spending money on stupid marketing and develop the 4.2.2 update for ATT. Hurry this change! I think it is time to send a message to HTC on its Facebook page. Start posting and let them know your displeasure.

Yeah some people just want stock AT&T Sense. Anyways, I believe it's AT&T fault for not rolling out the update. HTC leaves it up to the carrier to when they want to release the update. I could be wrong because Tmo and Sprint hasn't released 4.2.2 either. I have a feeling that The Verizon HTC one will be released before we see an update.

I've been on 4.2.2 for a little over a month now. Everything just works, and no AT&T bloat. Also have the AT&T OTA radio flashed and the build.prop tweaks needed for the new channels.

Very true, I hadn't considered that. I'm not sure HTC Sense will be "worth it" for me...

Where is the up the 4.2.2 update for the US? HTC needs to stop spending money on stupid marketing and develop the 4.2.2 update for ATT. Hurry this change! I think it is time to send a message to HTC on its Facebook page. Start posting and let them know your displeasure.

Hahaha like it's all HTCs fault... International has it and there is basically no difference between international and AT&T software besides stupid bloat, so go complain to AT&T if you want. I'm sure they'll send the OTA to your phone right there on the spot. :thumbup:
Posts/threads like this are way to common and a waste of space, I just don't get it.

yeah what's up with this? didn't XDA used to require like 50 posts before you could start a thread? this is why we have androidforums.com. regardless, HTC needs to spend more on marketing so that more people will buy their products and ATT will have to prioritize the updating. this delay is not on HTC...it's almost 100% on AT&T. ATT had the HOX JB update for like 3.5 months before they pushed it out to people, and their own customer service isn't even made privy to the status. this is what the purchase of subsidized phones and contracts gets us consumers. if it's REALLY a problem for you, then you're at XDA for the solution. this isn't a place to complain. if you want stock sense, that's fine, I can totally appreciate it, but you dont come to, and sign up for, a Dev website to ***** about the lack of a stock OTA from a carrier known to take (queue Sandlot) FOR-EV-ER to update it's phones.
Interesting. Thank you to everyone for your thoughtful comments. I have rooted a lot of phones and wanted to see why the update was not moving forward. The extra colorful comments are welcomed as well. The only issue with forums is I could be gaining advise from experts or middle school students.

I think the snide replies are rooted in the fact that the basic sentiment of your original post has been stated an overwhelming amount of times on this website, especially with regards to AT&T and HTC issuing an OTA for major - and even minor - software updates. Many folks get tired of coming to this site to read the same thing, hence the increased likelihood of getting a snide reply.
Truthfully, the update probably is moving forward, it's just that AT&T is about as transparent as the Bush administration so we never have any clue where things stand with regards to actual delivery of the updates. Yes, forums is probably going to be hit or miss with regards to quality of advice. But the way you're delivering your comment here makes you seem like you should be in forums, and is probably going to get you some colorful responses from non-middle schoolers.
If you've rooted as much as you claim, you probably know that we almost never know why carrier updates are not moving forward....or if they're moving forward at all. Many come here to find technical solutions and workarounds to that exact ongoing problem, and often get annoyed seeing the same thing posted again and again in each subforum. I think the general assumption here is that many of us are, in fact, frequently posting complaints/concerns/comments on carrier and manufacturer websites, social media pages, forums, etc. We're all on the same boat, or at least many of us.
We welcome rallying for a cause here, but it's possible there's a better way to go about starting a rally for this issue. In the past, folks have posted the actual interactions they've received from customer support reps and techs, feedback responses, etc, and discussions have ensued as to the best ways to get in touch with the companies involved with regards to really displaying the distaste of both the developer and general enthusiast consumer. The AT&T/Rogers/Telus HTC One X forums is a great case study, in particular, the rally around getting the original JB update RUU, source, etc.
I've had a few interactions with HTC and ATT with regards to future updates, but have gotten absolutely zero information from them. Sadly, they mask their lack of sharing as ignorance all too well. Even more sad is that CSRs and technicians are probably not really lying at all when they claim to know nothing about the updates. Again, we're hooked into contract, not to mention that the vast majority of their consumers don't realize the potential benefits of upgrades, and in many cases aren't even aware of their potential existence. That's where we'll probably really see the change, in getting more people familiarized with the beast we are burdened to deal with; not here, but in the general public.

Oh haha you just wanted to see why it wasn't moving forward is all?
Strange, then why didn't you ask WHY it wasn't moving forward? Instead you complained that its taking to long and then blindly blamed HTCs new marketing campaign for the delay? Doesn't make any SENSE (pun intended).

This information just came in today. Looks like HTC will jump to 4.3 for the Dev edition at least. Here's the full article: http://www.technobuffalo.com/2013/08/18/htc-one-developer-edition-jumping-to-android-4-3/

For those who aren't familiar with the word.
