I like the DNA but there is no ad card but the butterfly is very expensive then again the butterfly is international and no carrier brand it so hard to choose

Id look at the development community. OTG on the DNA solves the external sdcard issue in my opinion because you can just plug up a flash drive or hard drive.
If it was me making the decision, I'd go with the dev community I felt best about and was in tune with. I gave 700 for my DNA so I could have bought about anything, and I chose the DNA and am VERY happy with it. Several of my good friends are developing for it.

1. The DNA is built better
2. Better development
3. lte capabilities
4. More parts available in case of repairs
5. Better price
I cant take nothing away from the butterfly but personally I think the DNA is a better choice

We get it from HTC and they won't release it for 90 days. There is still a possibility that even if we get it it may not run correctly on the thunderbolt. We will see though.

On a funnier note, my old OG Incredible is running JB 4.2, despite being an ancient phone. That thing must be super easy to dev for or something...compared to the Bolt anyway.

The thunderbolt is the first phone on Verizon that has svdo which let's you talk and surf the internet at the same time even on 3g data. HTC and Verizon have both been protecting this technology by keeping sources closed indefinitely on the radio software for one. Since a lot of the sources are closed devs don't have interest in finding hacks and workarounds to deal with the lack of source. That's why a lot of the devs left this device. Even still though we have official ics and in a few months we should have the sources we need to build custom kernels that are needed for making a jb from.

Yeah I can understand the frustration from the devs. If we get it I'll enjoy it, if not then oh well not a big deal in my book. Still a good enough phone for my broke budget right now either way

Martin,
I think if u can contact elite dev Virus, it will be very kind of you.
He is stuck with DNA with OTA, as far as I can read from his post in joelz sense5 port thread.
Maybe u swap with him and then sell DNA. In this way, DNA community can benefit. infectedDNA will be awesome
Again, Iam not sure whether u or him is willing to do that. Just a thought

At least they're sticking the the back/home/recents button layout rather than the ugly back/htc/home layout they have on the One.
I'm thinking vzw is gonna carry more than 1 HTC phone. The droid series, the one and the one mini. Since Verizon confirmed that the one was coming, it can't be this phone. Opinions?

I see no need for a DNA2. Verizon has the One now, and when HTC releases their 2014 flagship, hopefully it will be on all carriers (without spin-off's like the DNA)

The DROID branding is exclusive to Verizon. They can slap it on whatever they want. There have been several DROID branded HTC devices.

Can this be done?

So I have an idea. Is it at all possible to port clean ROM for the HTC droid DNA to the galaxy note 2? I had the DNA and loved it. Except for no SD slot and non removable battery. And I love HTC sense, and I would really love to run sense on my note 2. Is this even possible? Thanks guys!

Can't wait till Verizon releasess KitKat for the Droid.!!! Phone can deffinatley run it with zero issues with it on KitKat now.
Of course VZW is always a bit on the slow side of approving...
I think what vzw was/is doing is updating all their other newer devices first (to get people to upgrade) before they roll out the updates to us older phone
This is just what it seems to me now that they have worked on the other HTC devices we are hopefully next unless another device comes along
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using XDA Premium HD app
I have zero reason to doubt that. After all it makes sense revenue-wise. Yeah the DNA is an "older" model. But it can still hang quite well with the newer ones. :good:

I'm in no rush for Verizon to push us Kit Kat. Look at some of the amazing Devs the HTC Droid DNA has. @nitsuj17 @santod040 @Zarboz , we don't need Verizon with them in the DNA forums.!!! I mean newer system files and a newer kernel with help the stability of the roms we have now and future releases. But besides that we are fine.!!
And I just joined the DNA forums but I've been in the android central forums and helped with many rims there so I have some experience with roms. And as soon as my post count goes up I might start a little something, something.!! A girl dev in the DNA forums.

So.... with the HTC One max updated to KK and Droid DNA in certification stage ... how long do you think it will take to be pushed to OTA and finally in our phones?

Who knows Verizon is usually the one that causes updates to take forever. So when ever they finally feel it's ready and want to push it out is when we will see it. They said some time in April but I doubt it.
