I Pre-Ordered my DNA yesterday! Been waiting 6 months for this baby, SO bored with my Rezound! Im hoping to turn my DNA RED maybe Red & White using the J Butterfly casing, does anybody know if the dimensions are the exact same?
It might be possible, though it looks like the Butterfly has a rear speaker that the DNA doesn't have (beside the camera). The european version might be easier to get your hands on and might not have that.
i just created a similar thread. the chinese edition will be the dlx and will come in white brown and black and is said to be closer to the us LTE edition than the j butterfly. i posted a link to the article in my OP http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1991857
I read a lot of threads on this phone and I don't understand :
Sometimes it is written that DNA butterfly supports sd card up to 32 go and Sometimes not...
Just see my link below ...

The HTC J Butterfly has an SD card slot and is the Japan exclusive model. The US/Verizon exclusive HTC Droid DNA does not. If there ends up being a model for Europe or elsewhere then it may or may not have SD card support, time will tell.

I just read on another thread that Europe is getting the Butterfly with the microSD card expansion slot http://www.htc.com/www/smartphones/htc-butterfly/#specs
First of all let's make it clear about the models:
J butterfly (Japan exclusive) with sd card and is water resistant certified.
DNA (Verizon exclusive) no sd card and it has not been confirmed it is water resistant.
Butterfly (China market and will only be sold in Asia) sd card and has been advertised on the official HTC advert as water resistant)
None of these are coming to Europe or America or anywhere else. If you want it in America you will have to pick the DNA from Verizon. These models are being released are like a beta test before the official international release. The reason why HTC has done this is because they want to see everyone's reaction before they make the official debut. This is so they avoid the issue they had with sensation/xe one x/x+ by providing a new flagship after 6 months because the first flagship had small flaws that made the s2/s3 a better choice in 2011 and 2012. The 2013 flagship will be a improvement of the three variants of the butterfly that will compete with the s4.
They will release the official flagship in 2013 February and sell it in Q1. It will have a better design/camera/processor so it can compete with the A6/exynos quad A15. Their is no point in getting the above devices those who want the best HTC handset should wait till February mwc 2013. Those who have bought the the DNA/butterfly/j have not been ripped off cause they got a device which has 2013's hardware. The reason why HTC have used this strategy is because they will get a flagship that will not be a hit and miss like the previous phones also hopefully if HTC makes their flagship properly then we will not see another HTC flagship till 2014.

Thank you Ali
Yes as I can read today in many medias, we will have in Europe a butterfly, with sd card slot.
Except the battery not fantastic, but that seems to be good enough (much better than the one x and almost the same as the s3), that will be a great phone (great specs) mainly if they put a 13 mo camera (for marketing !).

Hellow Guys i want to ask... wats the diference? about the new M7? i mean the Screen is more smaller... and the CPU is 1.7Ghz... but as i know the QUalcom CPU that the Droid Dna have is the same and can be overlocked at 1.7Ghz.. because the CPU can Handle That the COmpany of HTC dow-clock the CPU of the HTC DROID DNA to 1.5GHz... when can Reach with no risk at 1.7Ghz... so wats the Difference the SCreen Density is 480Dpi and the M7 Screen Density is 460Dpi so? whts the Diferencie...
if the HTC M7 Uses the SAme CPU as the HTC DROID DNA (but the DNA is down-clock) whats the Big Deal About that? i mean... we can be at 1.7GHz with no problem on the HTC DROID DNA? i have been for 5 days using the 1.7GHz and in the GPU 487MHz... no probelms no SOD or reebots ... so whats the diference on the New HTC M7 on the HTC DROID DNA? if we can be at the same range ... because the hardware is the same...
I thought and don't quote me on this that the M7 has additional storage 32GB, a removable battery and an SD Card slot. All the stuff that the DNA is kinda lacking.
Being someone who just got the DNA, i kinda hope the m7 will have horrible battery life so i can still feel good about my phone lol.

It won't. It's going to have a 2300mah battery, so unless HTC makes a monumental mistake with Sense 5, it should have better battery life.

Wow, that post was close to incomprehensible. The m7 is not a "droid" branded device, and will not be a flagship phone. Samsung has their s3 series, sure they make other phones, but the s3 line is their top product. For Htc, it is there incredible series, usually distinguished by the name, or the red highlighting. The dna is latest phone in that series of great phones.
The m7, while a capable device, is not in the same league as the dna. Regarding s-off, I assume you have not had Htc devices before. S-off always comes, and honestly it's really not that big of a deal anyway. Like others have mentioned, it only makes things slightly easier.
Good luck on your purchase

Huh? The DNA/Butterfly is a regional interim release based on the One XL. The M7 will be HTC's "flagship" global phone to compete with the XZ, SGS4, and LG E940 and will include quad-band HSPA which the Butterfly intentionally did not. Here are features it's supposed to have (based on leaks) not in the DNA:
First use of SoLux display technology in a mobile device
32GB+ internal storage
2,300 mAh battery
13MP Exmor RS camera sensor
First official use of Sense 5
It's supposed to follow Samsung's lead with the SGS3 and be released on multiple U.S. carriers without any changes (unlike the One XL, EVO 4G LTE) and Sprint's supposed to carry it so a CDMA version will exist. If VZW decides not to carry it then the DNA will remain the HTC "flagship" but only on VZW. There’s not one feature on the DNA that’s superior to the leaked specs of the M7. And while the M7’s display might be 3/10 of an inch smaller SoLux stands to set a new standard in brightness and outdoor usability. As it is, the DNA’s display is 30% dimmer than the OG One X.
If you’re on VZW wait until the HTC U.S. launch of the M7 on February 19th to see if their one of the carriers that’s going to carry it. If they don’t and you want an HTC device the DNA’s still a solid choice if you can live with the battery and storage constraints.

Totally true. The M7 will absolutely be a flagship device on every carrier its launched on.....at least until the snapdragon 800 SoCs arrive in phones by mid year...
M7 should be launched in march I believe and looks to have the 600 series SoC probably... Given Rajs discussion of it being in hands of consumers earlier...

It's 12% larger. The wildcard is how much energy the SoLux display consumes. In non-mobile applications it's twice as efficient as incandescent bulbs. It's never been used in a mobile device before so all 12% of the extra battery life could be used by the display or it could consume half the energy of existing displays furthering the M7's battery life. We'll have to wait until it gets tested to know the impact.

It’s supposed to be released Q1 and it would be fantastic for HTC if they could score being the launch customer with the M7. The XZ is using the same SoC as the DNA/Butterfly and I’d guess LG’s 1080P device will too. 600 will be far more effective against Exynos Octa. Here’s an interesting article where Qualcomm’s CEO describes what Samsung’s trying to do with Octa and why.

hey guys.
I don`t know if this is the right place to post this, but I was wondering what are the main difference between htc one international version and developers edition apart from the the 64gb storage difference and the bootloader, I am not going to use this phone in usa but am ordering it from htc usa store or amazon.com.
I would really appreciate it if anyone can provide me with some info.
thanks
I think your describing the dev edition with the 64gb and unlocked bootloader.
It's unbranded and has a cid with all 1's it receives updates straight from HTC sooner than branded devices

The dev edition isn't SuperCID
It's BS_US001
.. and definitely has *not* received updates faster than intl variants. it just got it's first official update from 1.29..3 to 1.29...16 around the middle of May, well after others reported getting .16 and even .17 . That is the only update that has ever been released for that phone (so far). meanwhile certain parts of the world are already getting 2.17.xxx
