AT&T Quickfire? HTC or other brand? - General Topics

anyone know if this phone is HTC made or just some other brand? it is fairly new so there isn't a whole lot out there explaining this. wikipedia doesn't even have an article on it.

Its htc
Please post question in the Q&A section from now on.

hm.. good device or no? doesnt seem to use windows mobile?
definitely looks pretty nice. we'll probably have a section for this phone soon too.
edit
sry mod its actually UTStarcom's Knick which is probably why wm6 isnt on there.

argon/panda/6300 users????

just courious to know how many other users have this device? can't be just me can it??
i chose this because of the screen size (all the better for surfing with)
if there are enough of us we could request the mods add us a section so can start to 'develop' specifically for this device
add your responces folks
poll added for Panda owners -do we want our own thread? yes or no

I was just looking at this right now. I currently have an o2 XDA IIs, and was wondering if this was the upgrade/replacement for it?
Have you compared it to IIs at all? I'd be interested to know if it's worth getting (IIs colour scheme is better IMO =P)
I don't have a Panda yet, but am looking at them for the reasons you mentioned. If you read through the About XDA Developers sub forum in the general forum, it has been already asked for, but asking again can't hurt.

hi steve, have checked and responded to all of the threads so i know there are users out there. have had mine for about 4 months now and am impressed. the large screen makes it easy to use and most applications work fine. the only issue i have is that is wm5 only at the mo, does limit the operation a bit as 6 would be faster. still can't have it all
hi angerfist7777,
my understanding is that the argon is the updates version of the 2/2i. info and specs can be foung on gsmarena.
i find that it is a good device the only limit is no 3g but using opera mini this is not an issue, also the wifi works well?
Thats good to hear. I think there are enough people here with them to get a forum going. Then that should generate enough interest to get some development going.

I'm using the BA at the moment, same sie screen, and slide out keyboard. I like it, it's a bit bulky, and I'm not too fond of the screen style, size, love it, but I'd prefer a harder screen to it, maybe like the kind of screen on the iPhone etc. but anyway.
the BA has had enough development for several WM6 roms going. The reason I asked if it was the upgrade to the BA was maybe those roms could be used on it with a little tweaking. I don't know enought o do so myself, but am interested.
anyone know if there is a radio upgrade avaliable?

so far only the stock rom and radio as far as I can find out.
we need more users to push either this or one of the other threads to generate more interest
can then hope to push for a sub forum and start to develop
I have an HTC P6300 and I love it! When a device specific forum section?

MDA Compact IV question.

Hello. Im new here and i dont know if im posting to right section
Anyway.. I just bought the MDA Compact IV phone from t-mobile. But i dont like the "pink" theme and software there. Is there any way to change it to HTC Touch Diamond software? I souhld also say that im completely "new" in doin these things so im afraid ill need a step-by-step manual. Thank you for some help. Ill really appreciate that. varac.
My god, I hadn't ever seen what T-mobile did to the diamond. That pink crap has to go.
You should be surfing around in the Touch section. They have what you need there. There is even a sticky thread that is a tutorial on ROM flashing (which is one option you can use to get that pink crap off your device).
Be sure to READ A LOT before flashing anything. It can be dangerous and addictive.

Who do I have to pay and how much?!!

I need a custom ROM for my HTC Imagio. Of course its a Verizon phone which makes it a CDMA phone a well. I am willing to pay $500 or more for a custom version of the HTC Sense or LEO ROM. It can be the very same ROM that comes on the phone but with a different version of Touch Flo3D. I just want my Touch flo to look like it does on all of the LEO ROMS!!!!! So who do I have to pay and how much?!!!

Dude, first off, congratulations on your recent purchase.
But...
1) This forum is for Touch Pro2 users only. They have different forums for a reason. You do not have a Touch Pro2 -- if anything, it's more related to a Topaz/Touch Diamond2.
2) Chances are since it is a new CDMA phone, they haven't even released a HardSPL for it. That's probably going to be your 1st recommended step before even customizing your ROM.
I promise...as soon as there is a place to post anything about the Imagio I'll be right there. It doesn't have a section on here like the other phones.
Please forgive me!!! Do you get this upset about the wind blowing too?

I'm not upset, just trying to protect you! Some of the users can be a bit snappy and degrading.
Curious -- when you remove your battery on your Imagio, it should show a model number of that phone (like mine shows RHOD100). What does yours say?
Explain please
Sorry...my mistake
Please delete
There isn't a Whitestone forum yet.
I've request one for you, please be patient whilst the admins create it.
Thread moved to General.

[Q] I need help so I dont brick my phone!

I just got an HTC HD 2 today from a friend, and it already has a version of android on it. I dont know how to replace the android files without messing up the phone. Can someone help or walk me through this?
i know this aint help but have u tried the hd2 section
also is your name from coheed and cambria lol!
I have looked through the section and I cant find anything on how to replace the files. Yes it is. The greatest band ever!
sry i dont know anything about the hd2 and yes sir you are correct i just saw them in dallas for the neverender tour 4 hours of nothing but coheed it was amazing my 3rd show i may add new orleans, little rock, and dallas!
you shld be able to ask the same question in that thread im sure someone will be able to help
If your friend was so generous to give you that nice piece of hardware I´m sure he can guide you to replace the Android OS with that Microsoft crap. Your friend has invested some time and energy in the modification of his phone so he would be interested in having you enjoying it, too, wouldn´t he?
To be able to help it would be useful to know if android rom is nand (ie has replaced the original wm6.5 os) or is running from sd card.
When you boot up the phone, does magldr load?
I would suggest you do go over to the hd2 forum and look at the sticky threads, tey have all the info you will need to change/update android to something newer or even change os completely to say wp7?
If your droid is nand, it is very simple to update, just head over to the HD2 nand forum
Cheers.
Thank you everybody for being kind and not throwing noob slanders at me. The friend who gave me the phone actually bought it off of someone who put android on it haha so this nice phone is a hand-me-down for sure.

Is There A Way To Install Android On An HTC One M8 For Windows Phone?

did you spend ANY time to search on the forum before you posted? IT IS NOT POSSIBLE.
technology not compatible, despise it is near the same devices are unique to run windows or android, you should be able to sell your w phone and get an android version
also keep in mind that you might not be happy with the android version. if used to windows phone you will find the higher battery drain under android quite disturbing.

The best bet is to exchange with someone who needs Windows phone but holding an android phone.
windows
It may be worth waiting. Windows 10 may allow you to install android apps

Woot !!!
Hello guys,
Seriously, I'm currenlty struggling to get one, as they're only availabel in the U.S. and nobody wants to ship to my location...
If you really have one of these and want Android, then please make things simple for everybody : contact me to sell yours and get an Android model !
On the other hand, i agree it would be fun to be able to run an SD Android ROM like we did on the HD2, but if you're looking for a NAND ROM, justs swap for a regular M8 that's available everywhere !
P.S. : I'm serious about wanting to buy an M8 for Windows... AT&T unlocked, as we're using only SIM cards here. Thanks ! ^^
Isn't there any swap section on this forum, btw ?
As a FYI to anyone that happens to be messing around in this space: I've intentionally bricked my (Win) M8 into QDLoader 9008 mode, but haven't gotten much further as the device doesn't appear to fully implement Qualcomm's Sahara protocol, or at least implements it differently than any examples for other devices that I've found - it will do the hello handshake and a mode switch but returns some sort of error after that. I'm out of relevant docs and examples on Sahara and firehose though, so I'm pretty much done unless I decide and manage to hook up JTAG.
There was a poster in another thread who said they were able to install android this way, but then never reported back with their "tutorial". As such, they may very well have been lying, but unless someone who understands the M8's Sahara support chimes in, it's still a possibility. Not trying to get anyone's hopes up though, as I'd say it's still unlikely given the lack of dev effort for this phone.
any updates?
Anybody hear about any update on this topic? My friend and I are willing to work on a project to see if we can make it possible. We just need to know where to start. As of now, I have the HTC M8 unlocked to sideloads apps and what not. Anything helps. Being negative never gets you anywhere. Being positive opens new doors. Thanks for your time.
Developers! can you convert windows htc m8 to android?
Hello Developrs!
My friend has a shop of mobile phones and he has a stock of HTC one m8 for windows phones. He wants to let it convert into android. Please let me know if any of you can do this. i will pay you for this.
Thanks

I have HTC one M8 (windows 10 version) at&t unlocked
if you are serious, please contact me on my email [email protected]
we'll keep in touch
Thanks for the offer, but I've bought a Lumia 950 now.
BTW, your email address seems to have been "anonymoused" ! ^^
.
Checking in for any updates. I got handed this phone in an insurance upgrade.
Hi, I can't find the other 3d about the porting, but today I was thinking about the mi4.
If you remember, the MI4 LTE can switch between windows mobile and android... maybe if we study the tools and the code behind that device we might modify/create a tool or (maybe) at least find something interesting that we can apply to our htc one m8.
I'm not a dev and my english is very bad, but I wanted to share with to all of you my thoughts.
