Could HTC have not given it another name? - One (M7) General

Just a little frustration. The HTC One is becoming very frustrating when it comes to searching as I have ti eliminate all the previous versions of the one from last year, it would have been so much easier if it was called something like "One Z".
Right now if Search for information or perhaps an accessory, my search looks something like this: "HTC one -x -s -sv -lx -xl -vx"
Is there an easier way?
/*Rant over*/

Look up htc m7, that will give you better results

Try searching for
Code:
HTC One M7
Edit: dang, got ninjaed.

Not all sites list it as HTC One (M7). It really does make it a pain to find accessories etc.

Try new HTC One. That's how the Taiwanese users and media calls it.
Might help

M7 sounds sexy

Imagine how the average ignorant consumer would think seeing that name. He'd probably think HTC One is an older phone than HTC One X.

You don't have to be very ignorant to think that.
Imagine an average Bob-The Builder, being so-so interested in phones and buy what everyone else is buying (i.e. iphones) and then hearing somone say something about the HTC One. It does not compute unless other Bob-The-Builder-people buy and show off the One.
They need MASSIVE advertising to become mainstream to the man on the floor who's not giving a shlt. That's the worst hill to climb.
Today I heard a colleague complaining about his HTC windows phone constantly changing clock or something - he's not going to buy the One.

Whose considering a Synapse Phone

With all N1 alternative threads, I'm surprised I haven't seen the synapse phone mentioned more, so I thought I would start a thread
I am quite heavily considering it. Tho I think I wanna wait for series 2, just to make sure custom rom community is there. Being rooted and unlocked bootloader from factory. But I think I should buy one to ensure there is a series 2
So who else is considering one of these synapse phones? To maybe replace their N1

wtf how cheap is this phone to start with? They're charging you extra for the most basic smartphone features...like a 3.5 mm jack!
*edit*
just modified my phone to personal liking, almost $900!
Read the remarks for a good analysis:

Not going to happen.
So not a scam, but prob not gonna happen considering company resources

Man that seems like such a good idea....
The first day someone posted about it on gizmodo or something, I went and looked at the prices. I "built" a phone using all of components that would put it above similar phones spec wise, it was going to cost about $900 USD.
Considering I spent my entire summer savings on my Nexus One ($580 + ~$20 for screen protectors, case, etc = $600) It's not necessarily a good or bad value. If I had that type of expendable income, I would totally go for it!
The concept is cool though - make a phone that caters to your needs. I wish an American company would try this! Maybe Google? "Nexus 2 - Have It YOUR WAY!"

hahahahahaa. Somehow, equating a $500+ phone to fast food just doesn't leave a good taste in my mouth. lol
It's an interesting idea - I won't be in the market for a new phone until September 2011 so will keep an eye on them until then. That should be enough time for them to succeed / fail.
I like the idea of a 3 year warranty..
sounds like a good idea, but they are being jackasses, 256mb of ram as the basic mode want more ram? well pay up, which is just plain 2008 or wifi, 3.5mm as options when these are basic necessities for a smartphone.
Seems more like a dream idea than an actual production device

Alright I'm bumping this thread up just to show everyone there's a better alternative to the Nexus S.
And the website is pretty much working for me now. Though there's no option for me to preorder yet, but I'm more excited about this than the other phone.

If this true I will buy one for sure...just wanna see some in the wild and read some reviews...I will most def pass on the Nexus S

Prices are not that awful for what I need, I end up at 500 or so USD
Obviously, I didn't put 4G and hdmi, radio, etc. since I don't use them and 4G won't be appearing in Canada for a while ^^
I'll see how it gets when they start actually selling the phones...it's an awesome idea honestly, I just hope they succeed! Go germans go
3 years warranty? Amazing if true. That alone is worth it! And finally a xenon flash for an android phone.
Custom spec phone?
I would say you're on your own as far as custom ROMs go...?

[MISC] Best HTC device of 2010 - vote for the Vision

There's a poll over at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=860549 for the best HTC device of 2010. The Desire Z is one of the candidates, so if you love your phone, then vote !
Bumping this for the benefit of the G2 folks, in case they haven't seen it.
Yes, I know the entry in the poll says "Desire Z" and not "Vision" or "G2/Desire Z". I PM'd the guy who is running the poll but it looks like he doesn't want to change it, based on what he says in the first post.
Anyway, "we" are not doing too well vs some of the other phones, so if you are bothered about this sort of thing, why not vote ?
Why the hell is this not refereed to as the Vision anymore?... on this forum or elsewhere?
This used to be the HTC Vision forum... now we're using carrier branding? Gets confusing when the phone has three names... and possibly more if the Merge ends up being the same and the HTC Shift.

Well, the G2 forum used to be called the G2/Vision forum IIRC (or something very similar). But whilst the Desire Z had its own forum, that didn't have the Vision label on it, even though it's a Vision phone.
I think this is all part of the initial confusion about the G2 and DZ being somehow fundamentally different, when they're not (just different radio bands and hardware keyboard layout).
It would be good if we could start referring to the phones as "Vision" more often, I agree.

We're standing pretty good at 6% which is 6th place. Considering we've one of the most recently released phones, I'd say that's not too shabby. The rest have been out for awhile.
I had to google what a Leo was, I didn't know the HD2 was so wildly popular lol.

The Desire HD has been out around the same amount of time (slightly less I think ?). But unlike the Vision, it wasn't fragmented into two differently-labelled phones (G2/DZ).

It kind of urks me to see it reffered to one way (desire z) or another (g2). It confuses me too. Altho I call it g2 when I'm talking about it in person I know the people who own the desire z probably get annoyed to hear someone call their device the g2. I totally agree the forum name should be changed to htc vision as well as the poll.
HTC Vision S-OFF CM6.1 Stable Oc'd to 1.5ghz on Pershoots Kernel

A glimmer of hope?

So i sent a email to HTC about DZ and ICS. And added a few lines about how they should think about a new qwerty-phone. And today i got this email:
Hello, thank you for contacting HTC last week.
I just want to give you a brief update. The proposal has been reviewed and has now been forwarded to the HTC department for research and development (R & D) in Taiwan. They will look at the possibility of creating a new product with a qwerty keyboard in the future.
HTC is grateful for your suggestion.
Have a nice day!
What do you think? Will we see a new qwerty-phone in the near future? HTC One Z maybe?

That would be awesome. A worthy successor to the best Android QWERTY phone ever made.
Well, it's better than nothing! Thanks for sharing the reply.
Also, what's a gimmer?

Additionally could someone please explain to me the need for the second poster to quote the entire first post. Is it not rather obvious that they will be replying to the OP? Sorry for the off topic, it just does my nut.

To be honest, I wouldn't hold my breath, since all you got was a generic answer that doesn't really mean anything.
I not think so, but it's better than nothing. In the EU we not have the myslide 4g or the Droid 4. So the only choice is really the DZ.

I agree, wouldn't really count on that meaning something.
We'll get a successor eventually, when HTC deems the time right. They're always putting out keyboard phones, and wasn't the DZ at least a small success?

Not very comforting to me. This doesn't indicate any willingness to update OUR phone or take care of their existing customers. With this response, how do I have any comfort HTC will adequately update any future device I purchase from them. Secondly, this provides no incentive to stick with HTC if a better hardware keyboard became available elsewhere.
Very disappointing, specifically the inequitable treatment among two high end devices released at the same time.

"Eagle". Interesting.
I think we're all already calling it the "LTEvo", though .
Ooohhhhh. I like that LTEvo. Like the way it rolls off the tongue. Hadn't heard it before. (EvoLTE, -like 'eVolt' - is nice, too, though, I think)
And why E4GL? Is eagle it's code name (like 'supersonic') or something?
Thanks for preorder page.

I second that LTEvo sounds great.
Can't wait. Don't know why people are freak'n out about the look. Seriously, this phone is packing extras that the htc one x doesn't have. Bigger Battery, removable sd card, a kickstand.
All I'm worried about is how much is going to cost me to get this phone. I have the EVO 3D now and it will only be a year into my contract by the time the LTevo is out. Does anyone know how this works, need to prep

Anyone else going mad about sprint announcing this like 2 mo in advance?! My god, the wait is killing me. (I remember the same thing for OG Evo, too, though). Every day, looking at pictures you've already looked at 1,000 times, Googling for any new info every few hrs. It feels like forever already.
(Still, gotta say I'm back and forth regarding the aesthetics. Sometimes I think it's gorgeous, then sometimes I wish the lines were more like the OG Evo, which I still think is one of the sexiest phones available)

Agreed I can't wait.
I completely dismiss the look cause i have a tendency to mod my casings. And any time an ugly phone comes out that is worth the hardware in it. There tends to be alot of modders coming up with different options to pimp out the phone.
How epic would it be if some one made a clear cover for the top/back half?
Cant wait to see what the modding community has in-store for this awesome phone.
can't wait till it is released and I go to work on modding the shiny black cover into something more of my liking..lol
This phone may just bring me back from the "darkside"

Also, I truly hope someone makes a 3rd party covering for the SD card that is a matte black finish so those fingerprints don't go all over.
Speaking of cases, are there any that are advertised yet? Or does it usually take a while? I've never bought a phone on release day - this is killing me!

Why would someone spend so much time and effort trying to put a phone in a bad light? Perhaps to convince himself that he is not jealous of the fact that the One outshines the phone he bought in each and every aspect. He can't be reasoned with, he just wants confirmation that his biased judgement, in his state of denial, is correct. But as he can't get that confirmation, he tries even harder to convince people that his delusional judgement is correct.
