I saw this leaked pic on GSM Arena from IFA. Rumor has it that it was one of the demo phones.. I dont think they would put a pre-production build on a demo device. I hope it fixes the little issues such as the SIM read issue and improves battery life. It wasnt terrible but it isnt quite what 4.2.2 was.
Being said it looks like Sense 5.5 WONT be released (initially) with 4.3, but it is great to see fast updates from OEM's while running skins.

Updated with tweets from LlabTooFeR:
@LlabTooFeR About 4.3 update for HTC One. It will have 2 waves,first wave 3.1x.xxx.x builds will be released in US with Sense 5.0 on board
@LlabTooFeR Second wave is for international HTC One with 4.3 and Sense 5.5 (not confirmed yet). So anyway first update 4.3 + 5.0 and second 4.3 + 5.5..
@LlabTooFeR Anyway all current devices (HTC One, One mini, Butterfly S) will get 5.5 at some point after release of HTC T6.
@LlabTooFeR I don't have any details about Sense 5.5.. HTC is really strict about Sense, see what happened with those designer guys...
Pocketnow has it in a video on a red one as well
video.
It's been stated that the update will be by the end of September so this does make sense, I can't remember the leak build number to see if it's newer or older. What I want is multiple lock screen widgets.
Is the next sense version going to be 5.5 or 6. I read about htc Designers Leaving HTC For New Company Interrogated For Expense Fraud and Stealing Sense 6.0 Trade Secrets. Either way i think that the new sense update will come with the One Max on release then to our One.

You have to take into consideration the carriers who will slow things down and over bloat it.
Mackenzie says he hopes to have ALL ones updated by end of September so it might have gotten sent to the carriers already or real soon so they can overbloat it and send it out by the end of the month, t-mobile might take the longest as they didn't have faith in the phone when it was launched that's why only the silver one is available through t-mobile, it's selling well but they favor Samsung

Sprint has black too, I spoke to someone from an htc kiosk who also worked at tmobile and he told me straight up tmobile didn't think the phone would be a top seller so there were stores that didn't order a large quantity but were wiped out once it was released, and this is true because that was the case in my area when I was in a tmobile store I over heard workers telling customers that it was sold out in 15 mins of release and that they had ordered a small quantity, fast forward a month later when I exchanged the iphone 5 for the one and that was still the case for some stores I called asking if it was in stock and the worker's at a couple different stores told me it was sold out and they order small quantities, they have special sections for the iphone and a big Samsung section but they lump the one next to phones like the cheap Nokia lumia model or the ghetto mytouch lol so there's my point

It doesn't matter when HTC drops the update, even if they did it today if your on AT&T or Verizon you will be lucky to see it by the end of the year. AT&T is horrific about updates, took them almost a year to put jellybean on the Note. If AT&T gets the one max before the end of the year you won't see official 4.3 for a very long time if ever.

I understand what your saying but AT&T could care less about the end users, the 5s and note3 are dropping any time now and if the max hits soon after that's all she wrote as far as official builds, will we see official 4.3 yes but not till end of year or first of next year. It's not HTC it's the carriers.

The Samsung Galaxy S3 will receive the Android 4.1, JellyBean update in the fourth quarter of 2012.
The software was unveiled by Google during the company's Google I/O keynote earlier this week, according to YouMobile.org.
The first devices to receive the software will be the Samsung Galaxy Nexus, Nexus S, and the Motorola XOOM Wi-Fi tablet with an OTA update coming in the middle of July.
JellyBean brings a number of enhancements to the already impressive Android 4.0 that improve touch responsiveness and the overall smoothness of animations and the UI. The frame rate has also been accelerated to 60 frames per second.
Google displayed demos of the redesigned widgets in the software that scale intelligently around other UI elements along with a new Predictive Keyboard that takes voice commands.
Android 4.1, also features redesigned notifications that Google has now made fully customizable, expandable, and collapsible.
Follow us
Google execs also presented a demo during the event that displayed the new notifications expanding to provide more information as they reached the top of the list and how they also can be expanded and collapsed at any time with gestures.
Jelly Bean will also have an improved voice search that is very similar to Apple's Siri voice navigation system featured on the iPhone 4S.
A new feature called "Google Now" also debuted at the event.
"Google Now" functions as a search product that utilizes customizable cards such as "Sports" or "Flights" that will keep users up to date on data that is important to them. It also provides users with personal assistant-like features.
For example, the cards feature gives up to date information based on a user's personal preference and location. It also updates travel information for people running late and give sports scores for teams that the user likes.

Sure dude didnt saw his thread..Anyway cant wait wait for Jelly Bean:cyclops:
Q4? I thought the sources were due in July. Expect 2-3 weeks before the first real AOSP-roms pop up, so in August everyone who cares will be running 4.1
Who cares about Samsung-official stuff anymore?
Where's Q4 coming from?
I know they're in with god and all, but somehow I don't think "The Christian Post" knows better than Samsung's own Twitter.

Hadn't noticed that. Well in that case, it remains to be seen as far as I'm concerned.
Only something coming directly from a Samsung source is reliable. Samsung don't announce these things privately in press conferences, they just tweet it.
Have they confirmed a timeframe themselves? (In China + On Twitter = I can't check easily)
I thought that the PDK support that comes with JB would make it easier for the OEM's to release faster updates. Q4 is too late

Why does everyone say this? I don't get it. I don't see any manufacturer that get updates out faster.
Samsung should be faster. They all should. But everyone always seems to say that Samsung are very bad for getting updates out fast. Relatively speaking, they seem quite fast.

That's everyone's response due to what happen to the sgs1,which still got gingerbread at a reasonable time just not the us carrier versions.
SGS2 was faster, but still the us SGS2 suffered due to carrier request and delays.
Really it's the US carriers fault. US won't see jelly bean for 6 to 9 months.

My sentiments exactly. I remember waiting for Gingerbread on my S1. But I don't remember envying every other manufacturers update speed. I (possibly) remember HTC shipping one slightly faster but nothing long enough to warrant the "Samsung updates are **** slow" mentality that everyone seems to have.
The post I quoted was from someone in Ireland though. You can't blame the US networks for that.

Htc has a smaller company than most so it's not as easy to direct resources to updates but I'm sure they will.

Photosphere is an AOSP feature on which even if HTC upgrades to 4.2 it still won't be available. Gesture typing is already existing on HTC keyboards since 2011 I think. Lockscreen widgets is an AOSP feature also and won't come to HTC since HTC uses a sense lockscreen.
So yeah 4.2 is pretty much useless unless you're using AOSP.

That's fair enough then Don't google release the source code etc to HTC/Sony/Samsung etc... and they then just tweak the functions to work with their phones? I thought that's how it worked
been waiting 7 months since HTC stated that the One X would be getting JB, and still no light at the end of that tunnel. Pretty sure when they unveiled the One X last year they were going to update software more often, but two new "flagship" phones released since then and still no update. Do not buy HTC thinking they will update to new android versions. They do make great hardware, so root and have a great device.

? We got 4.1.1 by now, which is JellyBean. If you don't have your update yet on your carrier, that's probably not HTCs fault.
Yet I agree it took them a bit long to release it. And yes, keep in mind that HTC is a rather small company, unlike Samsung. Let's just hope that they are a bit more conservative with phone releases this year - and I'm rather hopeful as the One was the only phone they introduced at the event (unlike 3 phones last time). More will follow for sure, nobody should doubt that and that's not a bad thing. Just please not 3 versions of the same phone etc., that'd be great.

Carrier is ATT (only carier in the US that offered the One X), which I have no doubt shares some of the blame. But honestly, a few months after telling their customers that the ATT version of the One X would get 4.1, they release the One X+ on ATT with 4.1, now here comes yet another HTC phone with 4.1. For such a small company, they sure pop out a ton of hardware. (Since the release of the Galaxy SIII, how many "Flagship" devices has Samsung released?) That all just goes to my point, dont buy an HTC phone assuming they will update to a new version of Android in a timely manner if at all.
HTC's problem for updates I guess stems from the fact they make so damn many!!
If they keep their line up simple for 2013 it will be more manageable, 1-2 low end, 1-2 mid range, 1 flagship. Who needs to release a phone every other month, it's insane lol
For example:
On the UK site HTC have the following
HTC One
HTC One SV
HTC One X+
HTC Desire X
HTC 8X
HTC 8S
HTC Desire C
HTC One X
HTC One XL
HTC One S
HTC One V
JB 4.2 work amazing :good:
Maybe it will quick updated to Android 4.2, but I think the time is at least after the release of Android 5.0.
They won't update the HTC One. They will release the HTC One+ in 3 months anyway with JB 4.2.2

Clearly stated at gsmarena.com that it is upgradable to 4.2.2

Suprised they didnt ship it with 4.2.1 atleast since its been out for a while now. Plus they probably received jellybean 4.2 months ago since google sends out the software months before its released.. But i guess it was buggy just my guess, so they used 4.1.2 .

Android 4.3 upgrade 'in the early fall,' says carrier
A few days back we caught wind that the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 might be jumping straight from Android 4.1 to (the still unannounced) version 4.3 in some countries. And today it seems at least one other phone might be doing the same. Android Central forum member NKYRacing got in touch with Cincinnati Bell to ask about the just-released 4.2.2 update for his phone, only to be told by the carrier that its HTC One would instead get an update straight to Android 4.3 —
"We were just informed by HTC they would skip 4.2.2 and go straight to 4.3 in the early Fall."
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
It's unclear whether any other HTC One variants might also leapfrog 4.2, although we should note that the current 4.2.2 update is already rolling out in Europe and Asia. Hopefully we'll learn more once Android 4.3 is officially announced — and it's looking like that's going to happen sooner rather than later.

Hopefully we'll learn more once Android 4.3 is officially announced — and it's looking like that's going to happen sooner rather than later.

Ithink this is weird to 4.2.2 is already released.
Ik denk dat dit raar is omdat 4.2.2 al uitkomen is.

It might be true if they know it's coming out, why push 4.2.2 out if they know 4.3 is on it's way. But my heart is saying yes but my mind is saying no logic normally wins but I'd like to be proven wrong

Dude!! I just copied everything from an other side.. Inc this picture
They took so long to get 4.2.2 out to the US but it's essentially ready now (given that it has been pushed to the international phones already). I'd be really surprised if they completely skip 4.2.2 in the US given the level of demand for it and how little work it would take at this point to get it out.
Haha I don't see how they can skip 4.2 when it's already out...
Doubt it seeing how HTC can't even get 4.2 out in a timely matter. You'll get 4.2 then 4.3 maybe next year at the rate it is taking for 4.2 to release.

I actually just had a chat with HTC support and they said Canada WILL be getting the 4.2.2 update. No eta was given for known issues. But the lady told me to check frequently so I hope it's coming soon.
*Quality Not Quantity*
Word has it that Verizon is paying the broke HTC to not release the update to North American markets yet. Not until Verizon gets the HTC one. Sounds stupid, but for the uninformed enthusiast, this could mean a source of frustration towards the current carrier (Tmo aTT sprint) and an incentive to switch to Verizon because it obviously is better at testing and approving updates than other carriers.
Again, just a rumor out of (almost) thin air.

While that may very loosely make sense in the U.S. why should that affect Canadians?
Most Americans would not know who Telus, Rogers or Bell is. It is not like Canadians would say "geez I'm going to switch to Verizon because they have a newer OS for the HTC One". Canada is a separate country from the U.S and should be treated as such. Hell, Google has either forgotten about us with Movies and TV and Google Music......or the CRTC is a pain in the a**. How is that related to your Verizon rumour? About as much as American carrier politics has to do with us.

Is there any indication that HTC has even pushed 4.2.2 to the carriers for their "approvals"?
And when are the Dev Editions supposed to get updates? If 4.2.2. is ready, can't HTC just push directly to dev editions?

I would believe that Canada is a separate country but this talk of Verizon entering Canada makes you wonder why we haven't received the update. I also think the CRTC is a pain in the ass too. I want my update too!

i have a hunch that once the verizon variant would be released, the US versions of the HTC would (FINALLY GOD DAMNIT) get the 4.2.2 update.. what was the point of buying an unlocked ver if i get the updates last?
Basically, I change phones every year. When a new iPhone comes out, I get that but when it's a 'S' year, I get an Android instead. It's an 'S' year and I am considering the Z5 Premium. Before my iPhone 6, I was using the LG G2...
I know it's up to the vendors to release the latest updates and the Nexus line always have the latest Android. My question is, how is Sony in this regard? Do they generally take a long time to push out a new update? Or are they normally quite quick?
They update their products regularly. As i recall after initial release if there's a bug it only takes 2 to 3 mos to update problem after that new version of android released i think bet 3 to 6 mos. But great stability issues if ever theres a bug for new version 1 to 3 mos it will addressed by sony. As of now z series updated up to this date. This is based on experience on sony sony user since xperia s.

Updates to sony is about 2 months late than samsung
But it is very stable.
Sony devices are well supported by custom rom developers.
If we considered branded phones sony is only 2nd to Motorola in terms of custom rom development.
I mean if we consider all sony phones.
Not only Z series
I think that Sony updates quite well. And what is great about them is that they really make sure that the update is stable.
I remember the whole Lollipop fiasco last december when Nexus and Samsung got their latest update and it was just one big mess.
Well i dont know for others but sony update was a very stable update what's the point of updating fast and regularly if there are so many issues and problem if they can do one time fix.

Sony are definitely a growing brand, listening to consumers etc.
They're community testing the marshmallow concept build on the Z3 atm which is a novel approach as only Microsoft have done similar in the past.
I think updates will be more regular.

The phone came out with 4.4, got updated to 5.0 and then 5.1. It's also gonna get 6.0. It has all the Android versions since 4.4. The rest are minor updates. I don't get how much is "many" for you.

Honestly, it doesn't matter at this point I sold the phone. Also, the phone I had through T-Mobile never received the 5.0 update before I sold it. At that point "many" turns out to be a lot based upon your post.

You just implied that the updates on Sony phones "are so far behind" because of your experience with one phone that was apparently carrier locked but you did not state it on your original post. Even if you did not mean that, the construction of your sentences does otherwise.

My point is you that wrote something that seemed something negative about Sony's updates because of your experience of one phone (that is again apparently carrier locked) which should not be because of how much they update their phones, I proved it and that's when you said it's from T-Mobile, you defended your original post and I merely pointed out how it's because of your sentence structure that made it seem like you were stereotyping all Sony phones. I reacted because I know how many updates the Z3 has received despite not owning it, and, yes, I'm a Sony fan.

It's not a negative post, its simply a fact as it relates to the phone I purchased. Your point is correct when you started, "because of your experience". Your proof is that the carrier version doesn't receive updates like the international version.
So, to that point my position is correct to have sold the phone. It's not that I dislike Sony. You have to stop assuming and start asking questions for clarification before defending a position that needs no defense.
We're all entitled to our opinions based upon the products we purchase. Also, if you don't own one please don't assume all models receive updates. Just a thought. [emoji56]

hmmm , m9 is still new , but it delayed ?

Sent from my HTC One M9 using Tapatalk
Hopefully someone can port one of the newer roms to the m9 in the time being.
Nice to see the update coming in time (90d time frame after vanilla Android release). But one thing makes me muse: Why were the previous updates released on most carrier versions simultanously? And will this happen with this update again?
I've been with HTC for a long time and except for the M7, I only owned unlocked devices. I noticed that the unlocked versions recieved their updates in time while it took the carriers weeks if not months to release their adopted updates. It annoyed me as hell while the M7 was my daily driver, so I returned to unlocked versions with my current M9.
Now I see that the updates are released on most carrier versions simultanously. This would mean that either the carriers have vanilla ROMs (unlikely) or HTC is holding back the unlocked versions in favor of the carrier versions not being delayed. The latter would really be annoying.
Any thoughts on this?

I believe unlocked ota push directly from HTC where carrier versions have to get approved by att,Verizon etc prior to release which is a huge pain in the ass and slows the whole release down

android M with no material design in sight

Those in the US shouldn't get their hopes too high. With carrier approvals being what they are we won't see this before February 2016. Some ROMs will have it sooner but often times things like WiFi calling and VoLTE won't work until the carrier version comes out...

I read it to mean that the rollout of firmware for the different M9 variants will start at the end of 2015. i.e. "At the end of 2015, HTC will start to roll out Marshmallow upgrades for the M9 phones." The more the carriers get involved so they can install their branded crapware (Verizon, can you hear me now?), the longer it will take, so I'd expect the unlocked/developer ones to come first.
(FYI, Jan 1 2015 was the "beginning of the end" of 2015 )
Im just hoping the m9 6.0 update improves battery life and overheating. Getting close to returning mine within my 14 days. The biggest feature i look forward to is the merging of the micro sd card as internal storage.
If that one a9 had a larger battery id be all over it.
I don't think merging of micro sd card as internal will be supported officially, micro sd cards are not as fast as internal... I used my sd card for large apps though... =)
