probably because WP is only just now available in most of Asia so there simply haven't been any ROM's for that part of the world. Right now most ROM;s come from Europe because that part of the world has the most support for WP.

Not offcially, sure people could import phones there but MS is just now releasing phones for China with Tango. There are a few phones for Japan I guess, but nobody really has them.
i mean download a rom package file and cook a rom is not possible?

Hi guys,
Received my Sensation a few days ago, purchased in the UK where I live. It seems to be an Asian version as the Language selection came up with English (Singapore). I have various options for Thai keyboard, Vietnamese IME etc....
No current issues with the phone and works fine with English (Singapore) language selected.
Question I have is will this effect any OTA updates and am I likely to come across issues or miss out on certain features etc... Being in the UK will the next OTA update be the full UK version or will I have to root the phone to get the official UK rom on it. Would there be any advantages to this....? Will I still receive updates here even though it is an Asian version. In essence what are the advantages/disadvantages if any as I can still return the phone for a refund and get hold of a UK/European version?
Thanks!
Where did you get it from? You'll have to wait on updates for that version but other than that it should be OK

From purelygadgets. So would I be better off returning it and getting the official UK/EU version? Do updates normally come out the same time world wide and how do they differ across the regions?
*OTA Update of the device based on CID >>> OTA update your version of HTC's Asia
*Because of this, that when we have Ship S-off (Super CID), you can not update via OTA anymore

Thanks, so hoping that there will be a OTA or manual S-off update I can then download and flash the UK rom? Do I have this right?

All we are hoping and waiting for this. Then we can do much more than ROM upgrade

Sorry for my ignorance, does this mean that the OTA update would be based on my carrier and so I would receive the UK update even though I have the Asian Rom on it now?

CID its security code of the original version rom, it protection device for no other rom upgrade patches. So the original version of your device its Asia >>> only upgrades OTA Asia version even if you are in any country and any carrier
Vietnamese language
Hi ancola,
I've just recently updated my phone to Official ICS 4.03 on Vodafone network in Australia. The only language option I can see now is English. Any idea how to install Vietnamese on the phone?
Thanks,

Aside from potentially faster JB upgradeability due to the european OTA already being available, is there any advantage to loading the european / wwe RUU onto a Tmous One S (assuming the CID is set appropriately for flashing it)? What is the difference between the US and european stock ROMs? Is there a reason one would want to flash the european rom onto a us device? I am talking about things like features not enabled in the US version due to lawsuits from a fruit company, etc. Thanks!

I am on the same boat and have the exact same question. If anyone has done this please share your experience. Thanks.

you can find it in Taiwan...it must have google.
The china mainland version do not have google preinstalled, it is because the argument between china government and google. but taiwan is not affected.
For the bands supportted, please refer the webpage below

Sorry I just got confirmed from a Taiwan forumer, this phone is not a Taiwan version, it is a M8Sw from China mainland, with a 3rd party rom, the beats and other stuff are added by the seller.
lol

I got it with etotalk modrom and it came with gapps preinstalled.
I own also HTC one e8 from China with a poor Rom installed, without system update Funktion. Need help to search another Rom, a stockrom with update possibilitys. Thanks
Hello guys!
I am new to android world.I just bought this E8 from China and its the China Unicom version of E8 known as M8SW.There are many chinese apps on the phone and also it doesnt let me take cloud backup of the device as it asks for some chinese weibo account to sign in or create new account.The same phone has been launched in India and some other countries with the model code M8SD.
Sorry for my lack of knowledge,I am just curious can i flash indian or any other country rom like singapore on it which supports english as main default language.I dont wanna install custom rom on my phone and somehow wanna stay with stock rom but from some other country.
Also if i flash some other country rom on it would it be a problem with frquencies my current rom supports and frequencies what indian rom supports.i mean i dont want any hardware issue after i flash indian rom on to my e8.
After i flash indian rom would the ota updates happen or no.
Finally where I can get Indian stock rom for e8.
Thanks in advance.

Hello all,
Can see the Oreo update on the Htc us support site for unlocked u11,
Can we install it on our phone purchased in India??
The site is
http://www.htc.com/us/support/updates.aspx
Thanks in advance
No. Devices from different areas have certain differences (for instance, radios, firmwares etc.)
So you need to wait for the official update for your device, once it becomes available for your device, in your region.

Oops. I should have checked that the unlocked US variant is the single SIM variant whereas we have the dual sim variant here in India. Rookie mistake. Thanks for the input though!
You'll find that you'd need to change the cid and mid to use the usa updates

Yeah, I won't change to the US one though. Maybe TW or any Dual-sim variant region with Oreo already

First thing you must know is what these numbers means. 2.18.617 might sounds like it's newer than 2.17.401 but it's not.
a.bb.ccc.dd
a: Major android version update since phone release
b: related to HTC changes (software)
c: region
d: minor update / security patch
.401 means it's the software for phones sold in the european region. .617 is for phones sold in the USA . So 617 isn't newer than 401
Hello,
I have 2.18.617.56
I see that there is
2.17.401.2
Does it worth the shot to update it? Are there any differences/improvements?
Thank you
Nothing new... Just different regional versions
