I just had a client hand me about 10 of these tablets and ask me to make them faster. No problem I said (having been an android user since the days of G1 and currently have over 15 different android devices in the house I didn't think it would be a big deal).
After spending days trying to get Cypher ROM to boot I thought I'd look around for a different one. I'll be damned if I can find a ROM that's not at least 6 months old on here.
So I guess I'm asking the hated question "which ROM will give me the best performance and all features working?" Sorry but I've been looking and can't find anything promising so I'm asking you guys.
What are you currently using on your HTC View 4G's that works well?

This is a bit of a weird question, but its important. I'm pondering the idea of upgrading my Galaxy_S3 to either the S4 or ONE. Wife just upgraded her phone to an iPhone 5 for T Mobile and loves it. I'm an iPhone fan but I prefer Android much more over iOS.
Between the S4 and the ONE, which has better (3rd party) Android development support? This is important since I'll most certainly be rooting and romming it. Is the ONE just as easily rootable as the Samsung phones? What about bootloader unlocking, can they both be unlocked easily? Does HTC have support for the very popular roms like Cyanogen or Miui?
Also, does the ONE support USB Disk mode (connect to PC or MAC via USB to transfer files < - back // forth - > )??? This is very important, especially with a phone with no removable storage option.
Thank you for answering these questions, I'm really on the fence between the 2 since they are both similar in specs and both pretty damn awesome.
Yes the HTC One supports both file transfer,
The S4 will have more development but the HTC One will not be far behind

Indeed, It will support cyanogen and you can see it in the International HTC ONE development section not this Tmobile one. The brilliant thing about all HTC Ones is that the roms will always work on any variant MINUS SPRINT. So not worries about bricking your phone and such.
You can expect MIUI to come here as well. The Htc One development at the moment is slaughtering the s4 So, if in the future the s4 has more development you can expect it to be not by much....
You cant go wrong with the HTC one. Oh and with transfers and such? it all works between pc and vs. Even my crappy 2008 samsung s1 vibrant supported that
bootloader is already unlocked for HTC vs samsung youll have to wait sometime to next month for the developer found the exploit to release it to the public.
Hope I answered all your questions

I also have the S4 and didn't know that.
Well dude since the roms for the international version are fully compatible with t-mo and att versions the development is gonna be nasty.
development will be great for this phone since AT&T, T-mobile, and the international ROM's are all compatible. Sprint Users on the other hand though... I wouldn't get this phone if I was on Sprint.
I am currently using a great ROM right now (the one in my sig) from the international forum, just had an update this morning, and its running smooth as silk, no issues at all.
T-mobile's BL might be unlocked on the S4, but the latest OTA put a root-blocking kernel in there... and with Samsung being accepted by the DoD, it might not stop there. But given how huge that phone is / will be, that likely won't slow anybody down...
I remember the HTC Evo days. Boy, I spent hours-a-day browsing the development section on XDA to get my flash fix. That carried over with my Samsung Galaxy S2 and then the S3. Now that I'm considering coming back to HTC for a fresher experience, I found myself jaw-dropped at how ghostly the development forums are. I figured this could be a result of the phone being so young; so I went to the GS4 to see if that holds true. Wow... what a difference. Those forums seem busier than hell. And it's only been about a month since it was released as well.
Anyone have any idea why that is? I've been trying to convince myself to get the HTC One. I got over the fact that it lacks a replaceable battery, a MicroSD card, and recently, I got over the fact that the images are just not all that it's hyped up to be. I figured I'd be transitioning to the Moto X Phone when that comes out later in the year, so I might as well put-up with these shortcomings. But not having the development support that I experienced with the earlier HTC devices, and recently with the Samsung devices is just not something I think I can get over.
I am constantly thinking of the word "potential" when referring to this phone. What a shame. HTC had all the tools to flip the market on its feet, but it seems as if they came up short... again.
Check out the non-carrier-specific forum...it's pretty active.
EDIT: HTC didn't come up short, this phone is considered quite a success.
My theory for this specific forum being dead is that T-Mobile's national release of this phone was yesterday (06/05/2013). Before that, it was only available in their "high-volume" locations.
Oh wow. And all of those will work with the Tmo version?
Sent from my badass Samsung Galaxy SIII.
yea all the development is in the international forum. all roms on that forum will work on the tmo htc one and they work very well. i have flashed every sense based rom and most of the aosp roms. definitely not a ghost town over there:good:
Yeah, they should. But as always, continue at your own risk.

As you've noticed by now, there's plenty of developer support for the HTC One. It's all just confined to the general HTC One forums, which makes sense, as the various roms can be used on the AT&T, T-Mobile, and international HTC One's. Most developers don't want to have to maintain 3 or more separate threads for the same thing.
As was pointed out though, if you're looking for T-Mobile wifi calling compatibility, be careful about the ROMs you flash. Since the 4.2.2 OTA for T-Mobile isn't out yet, no 4.2.2 ROM is going to support it. I'd suggest Android Revolution 9.4, or a similar 4.1.2 ROM if WIFI calling is essential to you.
Also, since a Google edition of the phone is going to be coming out in the near future, developer support is likely going to expand even further.
So I think it's safe to say you can put your fears to rest and buy an HTC One. I don't think you'll regret it.
Yea I've been hanging out in the International One forums as almost all their ROMs work for us.
This forum really shouldn't even have a development section since there's not really any specific T-Mo stuff that needs to be done.
Every single ROM in the GSM section will work for T-Mo. There isn't a single one that won't work. The only thing you lose is T-Mo's branded stuff and T-Mo's wifi calling (as they are the only ones who do Wifi calling)/

Thanks you guys so much for your replies. I'm happy to see that the development forums for the One is indeed thriving. I'm more confident in snagging a one over the GS4 now.
Indeed, I don't see a reason as to why even bother with a Tmo specific section.

I was able to dig up an old link for Android Revolution 9.4 but can't find a description or list of features etc for it. Are you positive it has wi-fi calling in it?
I haven't owned an HTC since the OG Nexus One (had all Nexus devices since) so I'm reading up on S-OFF etc before I flash a new ROM. I really want to try out wifi calling though so that's why I'd like to make sure. Thanks in advance!

9.4 definitely has wifi-calling. I'm on 9.3 at the moment and wifi-calling works perfectly for me on T-Mobile. In the installer, just be sure to select T-Mobile as your carrier and it will install all the necessary files for wifi calling.
Also, note that S-Off isn't required to flash this ROM. All you need to do is unlock your device through HTC Dev, located at the HTC Dev site. I'd give you a direct link, but asinine restrictions in place on this forum are preventing that at the moment. Just Google HTC Dev and it will be the first result. You can't miss it.
Anyway, unlike with earlier HTC devices, this unlock method allows you to flash everything you need to update the ROM. Only some of the "black box" partitions like the radio and bootloader aren't flashable when it's unlocked with this method, but to my knowledge, no ROM requires that, and furthermore, the Nexus devices are very similar in that respect.
The only real advantage to S-Off is if you plan on flashing a different carrier's RUU, altering the radio, or changing your CID. Anyway, just something to be aware of.
Good luck.

Sweet, thanks I'll definitely try 9.4 then! Reception in my office all day is terrible so I'm excited to try wi-fi calling.
I think I understand in theory why S-OFF would not be needed. but the nerd in me wants full control with S-OFF.. Also, if I use S-OFF, i can return my phone to bone-stock and keep warranty right? As amazing as the hardware on the HTC One is (I've gotten used to sub-standard hardware with the Nexus line), I'm not 100% sure yet I want to keep it.
Any chance you could educate me on what CID is for? Evidently it may restrict/allow flashing ROMS from certain regions?
Also, I believe I have a basic understanding of what an RUU is, but could you elaborate for me by any chance? I believe it's basically an all i one installer for a full stock ROM?
Sorry if this is a bit off-topic, but this T-Mo sub forum seems a bit more forgiving than some other areas

It's worth doing to S-OFF. If you do, you'll have the ability to relock the phone and put it back to S-ON with zero indication that you ever messed with it. Also, CIDs are used to restrict ROMs from certain carriers to only be installed on certain devices. It's really only a stock or stock-leak ROM limitation, I don't think a single ROM in either the regular or original development section is CID-locked. Either way, if you are S-OFF, you can change your CID code to whatever you want it to be (the code "111111") is referred to as "SuperCID" because that allows you to in theory run an RUU/OTA from ANY Carrier regardless.
You are correct about what an RUU is. However, each RUU is specific to a build of Android made by the carrier, and so far, I think only the Sprint RUU is out. No one has a T-Mo RUU yet (but you really don't need one, all you have to do is flash the stock rooted ROM from our section here and then unroot from the SU app options).
Enjoy tinkering.

You're going to enjoy the One. It's the first Android phone to have the build quality of an iPhone with specs that beat the pants off it
The only thing that sucks about the One is that because it has such a high pixel density, you will be extremely sensitive and aware of pixels in all your other displays (laptop/desktop/tablet etc).
I own an ASUS Zenbook, which is a 13" ultrabook with a full 1920x1080p display which is retina-levels of dense on such a small screen (I think it's almost 170 pixels per inch). The One? The one is a whopping ~470 pixels per inch. It is stupidly dense and I promise you won't find a single pixel no matter how hard you look.

Hey there community!
So my Nexus 4 had a little accident involving a ladder the other day. Let's just say this bad boy I'm currently typing on loses more and more of its screen every day, soon it'll be totally unusable.
So I'm going to be buying an HTC One off of Kijiji. Would this switch make me happy? Anyone that's been on the Nexus line or people that just love the phone, what do You think? I know development is nowhere as 'busy' and I do love the physical look of the phone, but I just want to hear your thoughts.
Also, regarding rooting and flashing... I hear you have to flash kernels through ADB or something? Is that the same for ROMs if true? I also noticed the international forum is much more active. Being a Pentaband and device, does that mean we can one flash ROMs from this forum? I'm not sure.
Also how friendly is this community ?

Well the only nexus i've had was the nexus 4 and i can say i am very happy. I have had no regrets. I dont know what you mean by key els through adb but rom flashing is done similar to all other phones, through recovery.
You mention about flashing roms from this forum, are you gonna buy the tmobile version? if not then this is probably not the best place to post. I can say the tmobile version is compatible with most (probably all) international roms. I have not ran into a rom i could not flash from that forum.

Good news to hear.
I meant kernels*. I was reading something about this "S" thing supported by this phone which makes it so you have to flash kernels over adb rather than recovery, I'm a but unclear here.
Also I am going to be buying the T Mobile version, soley for the pentaband tech, because I'll be running it with Mobilicity here in Canada. So that's more good news that I can flash from the International thread!

Hi everyone,
Swapping my Galaxy S5 out tomorrow for the One M8.
The S5 is a great phone, but it is too locked down, and I love rooting and roming! Just wanted to say Hi, and am wondering what everyone recommends me do the moment I get my new phone.
Also does anyone know if we are getting any roms from the big guys like Pac-Man, AOKP or Cyanogen?
Any help is much appreciated!
Thanks!

Welcome !!! I did the same thing as you. I had the S5 but it was too locked down for my tastes, and honestly I think that the M8 is easily the best phone built to date. Noting really comes close IMO. As far as AOSP/AOKP goes, check HTC One M8 Development Section almost all (assuming there is at least one that won't) will work on our AT&T M8's and if there's not an AOSP/AOKP to your liking yet I'm sure plenty more are headed this way. The development so far has been great and I've only had the phone a week so far :good:

The development so far has been great and I've only had the phone a week so far :good:

Hi everyone,
Swapping my Galaxy S5 out tomorrow for the One M8.
The S5 is a great phone, but it is too locked down, and I love rooting and roming! Just wanted to say Hi, and am wondering what everyone recommends me do the moment I get my new phone.
Also does anyone know if we are getting any roms from the big guys like Pac-Man, AOKP or Cyanogen?
Any help is much appreciated!
Thanks!
