Not a fan of all these Spigen cases with huge cut-outs on the top for the IR blaster that was not to be. I've had Otterbox Defenders for my last 5 HTC phones, but they are not making one for the 10, so I have to live with a Supcase Unicorn Beetle Pro. It's pretty good, though you do have to pop out the built-in screen protector just like on the Defender and use your own. Waiting until the TGSP mess sorts itself out, so just have a Spigen Crystal film protector on there.

I second the Snapseed recommendation.

Thanks for the info. If Aukey has stamped plugs and stiff cables then I really wish Anker would start making Powerline Plus type-C cables. Their regular Powerline type-C cables have nice extruded plugs and the Powerline Plus microUSB cables have a pretty small bend radius, around 3/4" or so.
-
The older Aukey cables were out of spec (no 56kOhm pull-up resistor), but the one you got is probably fine, although it's not the one that is on his recommended list. I'm just hoping that Anker comes out with Powerline Plus USB type-C cables at some point, as those were by far the best micro-USB cables. Is the type-C plug on your Aukey cable stamped or extruded? (As in does it have a seam on the side?)

Supposedly a kernel issue that is either fixed or at least mitigated in the US unlocked 1.53 OTA, so just have to wait until Sprint releases it and see it it gets better. Fair enough, it would be great if it happens, but again, I'm not holding my breath given HTC's financial situation, etc.
-
I'll believe it when it's actually implemented in a mass-produced handset. Rezence has been around since 2013. Snapdragon 810 and 820 supported WiPower. Yet so far the only Rezence-certified handset is a Qualcomm demo phone. I highly doubt there will be a version of HTC 10 with wireless charging.
-
Wireless charging means no aluminum body, doubt HTC would give that up.
-
Otterbox isn't planning to release any cases for the 10.

Yeah, Team Venom are great, had their M7 ROM at some point, but went a different way for my M8. However, the issue of carrier-specific development being dicey will always remain. Even the ROMs that are supposedly compatible with all 4 major US carriers often have some Sprint-specific bugs. Custom kernels often aren't ported to Sprint/Verizon at all (sigh, flar). Now that Samsung has completely locked down their bootloaders for S7/S7E, a non-Sprint HTC or a Nexus are really the only options for flashaholics.
-
Shouldn't be an issue with the new Nexi as there are no different carrier versions and region SKUs.
-
I think all the carrier-specific US units are silver only at this point. TMo is launching on the 18th, no carbon gray either. AT&T isn't going to sell the 10 at all.
-
That's true for M8/M9, but Uh-Oh for 10 is different. Definitely only silver variant for Sprint, HTC has it up on its site now too. $600 with a coupon + Uh Oh, still probably a worse deal than $504 from Sprint. This might sound silly but lack of carbon gray for Sprint just tips the balance for me towards getting an unlocked one from HTC and using it on TMo. I've had 6 different black / dark gray Sprint HTC phones, not getting a silver one now... Also fed up with lack of development for Sprint on XDA. This will only get worse for HTC 10 as there's only 3 SKUs - international, US unlocked and Sprint. Will keep my SERO account active in case the rumored HTC Nexus this year turns out to be comparable to HTC 10.

Heh, ##RTN# is exactly what I tried next and it worked, back to no LTE. Thanks for the suggestions.
-
CDMA only isn't selectable after a hard reset either.
-
That was the first thing I tried. CDMA only isn't selectable, immediately changes back to CDMA / LTE. I can select it when in plane mode, but when I switch plane mode off, CDMA only has no effect, the phone still connects to LTE.
-
Having a bit of a brain fart. Got a new M8 in SF Bay Area and was not seeing LTE, I'm assuming due to the eCSFB issues. Just to test the phone before my return window closes, forced LTE with *#*#4636#*#*. Got band 41, everything seems to be working. Went back to CDMA + LTE/EvDo auto, but still stuck on LTE, so no calls. Tried everything up to ##SCRTN#, same issue. Am I missing some easy way to get CDMA/EvDo back?

"The Unbearable Lightness of Lunar Being" is the title of my next book.

Going by the changelog, I'm assuming this will include new radios/PRI and ROM base/kernel. Might be the same hboot though, as 1.15 hasn't been hacked yet. Yay for a new wave of OTA confusion on all EVO LTE forums.
