Supposedly HTC is skipping the 4.2.2 update in favor of the 4.3 update.

I'm not too bothered by this TBH, the phone still performs well. No lag, no glitches or weird things. I can be patient :P

Do so at your own risk. If you do, you may be subject to arrest by the mattress tag police.   AJ

Ok just left walmart and basically performance was the same on both devices. As we headed to the back of the store both phones dropped to 3g but once we got back to within a few feet of the registers

Well, the phone whore in me forced me to get a gs4 this morning. So I have an HTC One on one line and a GS4 on the other, will run as many comparative tests as I can.

4.2.2 and 4.3 don't really bring features that the 4.1.3 already have or that I would use so waiting is not really a big deal for me.

What in the world is up with that square under the camera?

Nvm I just looked it up, it's supposed to be a fingerprint scanner. It's hideous! 

 

No stylus like the HTC FLYER no deal! That size has to have a stylus. Anyone else think the Samsung Galaxy Mega is a waste?

I already posted about this in the HTC One Max thread...

 

And everyone is saying it is a fingerprint scanner. I personally think it could be a trackpad to make the phone usable with one hand. It might even do gesture control. That would be HTC's killer feature to the S-Pen. And then it can sell a pen as an accessory. There is also a smudge or something at the bottom of the photo. There might be a pen embedded in the phone that they don't want to show off just yet.

I cannot wait for it simply to get rid of the * * * menu button at the bottoms of apps like, say, Facebook. Which I use more than I'd like to admit.

Honestly? I'm afraid I'll break something, or get addicted. I can't afford either! Haha

Well, if you would like help (as in a can basically do it for you via Remote Desktop for Chrome) PM me. I've S-off'd and/or just rooted probably 100 (half a dozen remotely) phones between the OG EVO, EVO 3D, EVO LTE and now the One. I'd say I know what I'm doing at this point. :) Throw some d3rpONE Rom on the phone and you'll be very happy with no 3dot menu, HTC button as Menu and rock solid (as stock) performance.

 

If you are willing, it's the least I could do for all the time and effort you all put in around here.

Oh come on, just root the thing already.  With every phone I have owned I have always been addicted to flashing but honestly with the one I haven't found a need to flash as often if at all.  The phone runs incredibly smooth as is and I rooted just a for a few things here and there.

The Facebook app doesn't have a menu button anymore. The last update got rid of it, no?

True, but I really would like the advantages of 4.3, specially TRIM.

What is TRIM? Never head of it.

In computing, a TRIM command allows an operating system to inform a solid state drive  (SSD) which blocks of data are no longer considered in use and can be wiped internally.

In other words, it helps combat fragmentation.  And Android 4.3 is the first version release that includes this feature. Finally!. :)

Haha, I'm working on it. I *think* I got stuff downloaded last night, but I haven't backed anything up yep.

True, I just noticed that they did finally get rid of it. Must have been pretty recent. Still though, it's a problem on a lot of apps.

Got the new red today from Wirefly, and the SIM they sent me was defective :(  No 4G for me until they get another one out my way.  The phone is absolutely beautiful though, a lot less dull looking in person than the photos make it look.

      Kind of amazing that T-Mobile is still holding onto that speed title despite Verizon all but killing off lowband 5G on their network. While Verizon is mostly being evaluated on mmWave and C-band performance, T-Mobile and AT&T's average 5G speeds include their massive lowband 5G networks that are significantly slower.

      Yup. Very true. We were originally on an Everything Data 1500 Plan, which got Unlimited Minutes thanks to Marcelo's "Loyalty Benefits" offer. We then switched to Unlimited Freedom (with the Free HD add-on that Sprint originally wanted $20/month per line for.... remember that?) because the pricing was better with "iPhone for Life", vs. the "Loyalty Credit" for staying on a Legacy Plan. After that, I ran the numbers and switched us over to Sprint MAX, especially for the international travel benefits. There's absolutely no reason for us to switch to Go5G Plus or Go5G Next if we're going to do BYOD by purchasing from Apple/Samsung/Google directly as we've been doing. These new plans aren't priced for current customers to switch to. They're priced for new customers, where they throw in a free line, etc. It's gone from "Uncarrier" to "Carrier". What a shame.

      Strange business model that they keep around all these pricing plans. 1000s of plans per carrier is reportedly not uncommon.  Training customer support must be a nightmare. Even MVNOs have legacy plans. A downside of their contract mentality I guess. Best to change contracts during a recession. But then all carriers try to squeeze out legacy plan benefits as they grow old.

      Everything "Uncarrier" is becoming "Carrier" again. Because of the Credit Limit that T-Mobile put on our account for no reason at all (and wouldn't change/update the last time I checked all the way up to the CEO), I don't plan on buying/upgrading our iPhones through T-Mobile. I'm going through Apple directly. Looks like I'll be going through Google and Samsung directly for our other lines for upgrades. Also, we're staying on Sprint Max given the ridiculous pricing for Go5G Plus. On Sprint Max, we currently pay for our Plan: $260 for 7 Voice Lines $25 for two Wearable Lines. (One is $10/Month. The other is $15/Month because the AutoPay discount only applies up to 8 lines.) Total: $285/Month vs. Go5G Plus (Per the Broadband Facts "nutrition label" on the T-Mobile Website): https://www.t-mobile.com/commerce/cell-phone-plans $360 - ($5 AutoPay Discount x 7 Voice Lines) = $325 The Watch Plans show as either $12/Month or $15/Month: https://www.t-mobile.com/cell-phone-plans/affordable-data-plans/smartwatches So this is about the same for the wearables as what we're paying now. Overall, it's quite more than we're paying now to switch plans. Ridiculous....
