Anandtech's "Mega" HTC One review>>
I've never given any smartphone an editors choice award before, though I daily regret not giving the One S an award of some kind. For the HTC One I'm giving our Editors Choice Gold award, which is our second highest award. The One is an incredibly awesome device
I'm a big fan of the HTC One and can see myself using it for quite a while, even without seeing necessarily everything of its main upcoming contenders. It's a device which amazingly is built to the kind of specifications I'd want from a device — huge emphasis on camera, all metal construction with actively tuned antennas, and a powerful SoC inside.

If anybody feels i have missed a piece of important information you can send it to me via PM and i will be sure to give you the credits
For those who like to continue the more general HTC action from the old thread, I will be contributing to the following Off-topic thread by @DeSaint2:

How to fix your HTC One LCD color tint
To do you so you will need to flash Faux' custom kernel starting v006 and it's companion app
Faux123 HTC One kernel
Faux123 Kernel Enhancement Pro app
Go to the screen tab and reduce the value you think is causing the tint, for example on my HTC One i always felt its a little on the green side, in order to reach the perfect white balance make sure to reduce in very small amounts and keep in mind it will only work after a reboot
here is my set up:

The Unwired: HTC STARTS SOFTWARE UPDATE ROLL-OUT FOR THE HTC ONE - ADDS SUPPORT FOR HTC MINI+ AND GOOGLE KEYBOARD - 2.24.401.8
HTC has just started to roll-out a minor firmware update for the HTC One, which already hit France. According to the provided information, the v2.24.401.8 update, which only is 32 MB small, is said to add compatibility for the upcoming HTC Mini+ remote control as well as the original Google Android keyboard, which is available from the Android Google Play market as a free download. If HTC has now started to roll-out a minor firmware update, which contains support for the HTC Mini+, it shouldn't take too long anymore to see it released in Europe, even if HTC has yet not officially announced it but all we have is the::unwired's earlier observation of a software update as well as Clove's later blog post of the expected launch.

A really thorough HTC One hardware review from the ARHD Blog
ARHD Blog: HTC One review - Part 2: Hardware
Some highlights:
The HTC One is considered by many to be the Android flagship phone of 2013, and has topped the PhoneDog Smartphone Rankings weekly since March 31st. This not only makes it one of the most successful HTC phones of all time, it also means it has been at the #1 spot for longer than even the immensely popular Apple iPhone 5.

It is a real beauty of engineering, with a sleek aluminium casing exceeding even the quality of the iPhone 5, with a superior hardness rating. The unibody polycarbonate body of the HTC One X is a thing of the past, with each individual One casing taking 200 minutes to manufacture.

When compared to the output from the Galaxy S4 or iPhone 5, the difference in quality is night and day. No phone to date can match the HTC One for sound quality. Playing for example racing games on HTC One is a really great experience. Stereo system is just amazing.

However, S600 seems to have enough power to supply, because the speed and fluidity of the HTC One is something to be admired. Every system app can be launched in under 2 seconds, and the overall experience feels very snappy. In fact, the phone feels faster than Galaxy S4, which experiences many micro lags caused by its TouchWiz custom UI. The HTC One doesn't seem to lag at all. The only instance is caused by Android: poor scrolling in some apps.

With the new Snapdragon 800 processors due to be included in phones starting September, the 600 will soon be minorly outdated, but it is still an excellent choice. Bundled with this is the Adreno 320 GPU. This is one of the best GPUs currently available, and beats the PowerVR SGX 544MP3 found in the Galaxy S4. The iPhone 5 also uses a PowerVR, and due to it’s smaller screen size and resolution, this phone will generally play games smoother than on the HTC One, however at the cost of screen size.

One of the main issues which HTC had to tackle during the designing process of the HTC One was a how to ensure the device wan't susceptible to capacitive detuning, where the human hand would stop the radio form functioning correctly. An example of this was the grip of death experienced by the iPhone 4. HTC solved this issue in a unique and clever way: the antennas tune themselves actively in order to ensure the best Standing Wave Ratio and to match impedance during the presence of a hand or case. HTC introduced a new antenna feeding structure to ensure that attenuation doesn't affect the overall antenna performance regardless of how the HTC One is held in the hand. This active antenna tuning is a first for 2013. The actual antennas HTC uses are the metal strips at the top and bottom of the device.

In conclusion, the HTC One has proven itself to be top of the Android class, and thoroughly deserves its extended period as PhoneDog #1 smartphone. The build quality is second to none, and the overall specs definitely don't fall short. On paper, the phone is a beast, but in the hand it's more of a beauty.

HTC One Simple Gaming Boost scripts - Root
While the HTC One mostly ramps up the CPU pretty well on it's own for the majority of (optimized) games, certain games still need a good old fashioned boost to the CPU governor, you can figure out these games when they fluctuate between very smooth fps and laggy for no obvious reason (like lagging in non detailed areas)
Examples of such games are Ripetide GP2, Beach Buggy Blitz, Real Racing 3 and Iron Man 3
Use the attached very simple scripts to boost your CPU quickly before you game and then unboost when you are done

HTC One Adreno 320 GPU - OC GFX Bench tests
By default the GPU is slightly underclocked at 400mhz, using custom kernels it can be easily unclocked to 450mhz (same as the stock clock on the SGS4) or go further to 487mhz
However after 450mhz there is a relation between the GPU And CPU
CPU 1728mhz, GPU 400mhz (stock 2.24.401.8)
CPU 1300mhz, GPU 450mhz
CPU 1500mhz, GPU 450mhz
CPU 1728mhz, GPU 450mhz
CPU 1728mhz, GPU 487mhz
CPU 1890mhz, GPU 487mhz
CPU 2109mhz, GPU 487mhz
18fps / 46fps are the highest GFX scores i could achieve on my HTC One
Going with higher CPU clocks and GPU 487mhz will not yield any benefit it will score the same
Interestingly going with extreme GPU clocks like 533mhz will bring performance crashing all the way down
Anfroud Authority: HTC One: How to master BlinkFeed
Conclusion
The HTC One’s BlinkFeed app is a cool feature that snugly packs
all your favorite content into one page. It is one of the big
reasons that many users love their HTC One, although, arguably,
it’s also one of the big reasons that some users shy away from
the HTC One.
While BlinkFeed is very easy to master, the app’s inability to
accommodate custom media sources frequently cause me to
believe that other similarly natured apps actually work better
and has better flexibility. Though, on the other hand, it’s this
lack of flexibility that makes BlinkFeed easy to master and easy
to use.
Lastly, while BlinkFeed may seem pervasive at first, you can
actually dismiss it from view by setting a different main
homescreen or by using a custom launcher — either of which
doesn’t remove the app from your system. For the latter, you
can take the geeky route: flash a custom ROM.
What do you think of BlinkFeed? Do you use it at all? Or, do you
prefer a different third-party app instead, and if so, what app?
Share your BlinkFeed experiences with us by sounding off in the
comments.

Update: If you download this game from your 3.x ROM with ES 3.0 drivers it will download an improved version with Anti-Aliasing and better color precision, explained in this post
HTC One, 3D Games Performance Report, Asphalt 8 (tested on 2.24.401.8)
This game runs in sub 1080p, around 720p judging from the 1:1 snaps, this game features built-in graphics settings and by default it's set to medium, which can be raised to high, the only difference between the two modes are the added gameloft style lens flare reflections and motion blur, equally medium mode suffers from some dithering and reduced precision in shaders
Performance wise, it runs well in both modes most but suffers from random fps dips, so it joins the rank of games in need of CPU governor boost, once boosted it runs extremely smooth, so make sure to use my
HTC One Simple Gaming Boost scripts - Root
If you are using stock kernel it runs extremely well with the above script until it hits the temperature threshold and throttles the GPU, to fix this you need to either disable ThermalD or use custom kernels like Faux or Elemental X
Medium - Scaled 1080p (dithering)
Medium - Scaled 1080p - Boost (no motion blur, no lens reflections)
Medium 1:1 (dithering)
High - Scaled 1080p (no dithering)
High - Scaled 1080p - Boost (+ motion blur, + lens reflections)
High - Scaled 1080p - Flares (+ motion blur, + lens reflections)
High - 1:1 (no dithering)

Thanks alot
Thanks alot
I am using Z3, may be i will buy Z5, too
alphr.com/sony/1001448/sony-xperia-z5-review-sony-gets-it-spot-on
basically most f the reviews say that battery life is slightly behind the LG G4 and the Galaxy S6 ! Xperia stood for battery life and now it is below the S6 which has horrible battery life !

Night mode review of the Z5 on FlashingDroid (by Ray Ma). It's in Chinese, but the pics he took speak for themselves.
FYI, he does know English, so it's possible to ask him questions in English (if he responds, of course).

Video test Z5C vs. iphone 6s+. We can debate which is the best camera, but for best video (and audio quality), it's not even close.

Manila Shaker review - Z5, Note 5, G4, 6S:

Hello Sirs, I would like to call everyone who has an interest in having the portability of Google Camera with the maximum possible resources, for our beloved Moto Z2 Play device, both developers to generate this compatibility as the sponsors in form of donation to these developers by the job.
I contacted @Arnova8G2 who is currently the main developer of such compatibility with more smartphones.
He asked to run the test with the Camera2 Test application, in which I am attaching the report here in this post.
I would like the manifesto of all those interested in being willing to make donations and to the developers who proposes the possibility of bringing this feature to Moto Z2 Play.
Camera2 Test Resume:
OS Version: 3.18.71-perf-g554d879(26)
OS API Level: 8.0.0(26)
Device: albus
Model (and Product): Moto Z2 Play (albus)
I am in !
Me too
Iam also very much interested
I want
I think everyone want it... But we have ARM Oreo... Gcam need ARM64
Actually Moto Z2 Play has no Camera2 implemented, so I think it won't be possible.
At least not on stock ROMs.
Eager to ee
Any update on this made??
Just download Google camera version 2.7 from apkmirror. Works fine. 360 images and all.
https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/camera/camera-2-7-008-release/
Does this mean I get the donation, lol?
In the ResorectionRemix rom have a google apk camera modifiet for our sensor.
But the apk is little outdated. We need some one to modify the new version whit fixed autofocus.

This version is very old from 2015 if I'm not mistaken. Versions 3 4 and 5 have already popped up so it seems an updated modded version would not hurt
I use the 360 mode only. If the new version has some other features I'd be curious. I use my stock camera app for most pics.

That camera won't have the HDR+ which is what is meant by porting Gcam. I posted in the apps thread today one that has HDR+ and is ported for 32bit.
Google camera 6.1 (pixel 3) working relatively stable.
Thanks to the developer san1ty.
Download here (last version)
- Use the app configured as it comes.
- Only change HDR min and max frames to 28 (36 may be too much for our cpu, i had fc's).
- The night sight mode only will work on devices up to 3gb of ram memory.
Bugs: camera does not focus and save pictures (in normal -no HDR- mode)
Tested on a Moto z2 play (albus) running lineageos 15.1.
Obviously requires 64 bit OS (only custom roms)
im using moto z2 play. so as i am.
