Phandroid ran an article this weekend saying that HTC, on htcsense.com, just listed, besides EVO+, the name Inspire HD. I am seeking the opinions of fellow Inspire owners on the following questions:
1. Do you think the Inspire HD is coming to AT&T?
2. Do you think the HTC Holiday is officially going to be called the HTC Inspire HD?
I think the Inspire HD is coming to AT&T, and I think the Holiday is going to officially be called the HTC Inspire HD. HTC has shown, here lately, that they want to keep a tried-and-true name amongst the carriers. They started with the EVO, then EVO 3D on Sprint. The Incredible, and now Incredible 2 on Verizon. The MyTouch, now MyTouch 4G and 4G Slide on T-Mobile. We have the Inspire 4G on AT&T. It is logical that HTC's next smartphone for AT&T would be called the Inspire HD and, with any luck it is going to be formerly known an the Holiday.

That's some interesting conjecture. I can see the logic in your post. HTC's internal name for our Inspire is Ace so the holiday could become the Inspire HD. It's rumored to have a AUDI display so that can make sense, no pun intended. I just hope they follow Huawei's Sonic and include AT&T and T-mobile HSPA+ bands.

What the op is saying would make a lot of sense.
I was thinking the same thing. Should be an awesome phone, whatever it's called. Now I just have to figure out how to get AT&T to give me one like they did with my Inspire 4G.

The bands wont happen as when the buy out is finished one of them will not be active anymore. Att has already stated that non of the current T-Mobile phone will work on 3g once the buy out is finished. To be honest I am looking forward to it but am not to excited. Anything that can't be done already on my phone is not worth doing. I don't play games so that is not an issue. I think things are moving to fast to bother to keep up. If the rumors are true ill wait for the new HTC nexus
I am biased, I will only buy htc.. I honestly don't think any other phone makers compare. With my fanboy-ness out of the way. I will either get the rumored htc nexus, or what ever the holiday turns out to be. I would be more likely to get a dual-core lte nexus then I would one with sense, but it really depends on when and what is released as I am eligible for an upgrade, and sadly I don't think there are any phones out right now that would be considered an "upgrade".

You know that's right. I got 11 months to go before my upgrade. I doubt my little corner of the world will have LTE by then, but I hope the merger will give AT&T a better selection of delicious HTC flavors.

This phone made me a fellow HTC fanboy, I gotta say.
I always did like them when I was drooling over all the other ones on carriers OTHER than ATT, but at the time of my blackberry to Android conversion, the best Android appeared to be the Captivate.
I couldn't get over the difference in appearance between the cappy and the aria, and since the aria was the best HTC phone they had at the time, choosing the Captivate was easy...
And regrettable, in retrospect.
The along comes the inspire, makes me pay off contract, and the rest is history.

Running sense 3.0. taller and more narrow than the Inspire, same screen resolution, Pretty slick
I don't think there's any question that the Holiday will be the Inspire HD. With that being said, it's going to be my next device .
Well how long til it's out if it's the Holiday you're testing?
I'm totally going to upgrade to a One phone. I'm on T-Mobile, and I'm kinda sad we won't get the MOA black version. But I'm curious, aside from its strength what other advantages will the MOA get compared to the Grey anodized version?
I'm case I decided to get the One X, will either of those versions get T-Mobile faster 4G?
And correct me if I'm wrong but.. The One X and One S here in the US is practically the same phone, the only difference being screen type and size (obviously resolution) and battery??
Also, I love the screen on my brothers Galaxy S 4G, is the One S similar, worse or better than that?
Does the T-Mobile version have dual microphone? One regular and one noise canceling?
Sorry, but no the One S and the One X aren't even close. The S uses an S4 chip, while the One X uses the Tegra3. Now if you meant the AT&T version (which is the One XL), then they are the same other than the screen type/size, battery, and I think the XL will still have 32GB memory unlike the 16GB on the S. Of course I'm half asleep making this post so please forgive me if I was/am wrong on any of that. As far as the mic goes I'm not sure.
On a side note I hate the fact T-Mobile isn't getting the MAO version.
I think the one xl, has a dual core processor, not sure of that, but I think i heard it somewhere. If that's true, i recommend de one s, as it's cheaper, and still an awesome phone.

Yeah I was referring to the One XL. I seriously hope the One S does have dual microphones. That would at least save it a bit from lack of MOA

I'm on Tmobile USA. The more I debate between the One S and the One XL. The more I lean towards the One XL which should work on Tmobile. One XL has an HD screen and a bigger screen over the One S. Plus the Front Facing camera is a tad better on the One XL.
Sent from my HTC Incredible S using xda premium
I'm on T-Mobile too, and the only reason I'm considering getting the One S is due to price. I have an extra line on my account. My mom wants to put my dad in my account so that the whole family will be in my account. Obviously the phone would be way cheaper, especially if I go to Sams club or Costco.
If I get the One X I'm paying full retail, and there's no guarantee they'll sell it to me the week it is released cause they give preference to their customers or new customers.
Not to mention, don't know how long it'll take for them to get me an unlock code.
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G XE with Beats Audio using XDA
I'm wondering if anyone knows if it's using the same TI wifi chip as the Amaze. That really hindered dev. on that phone since HTC isn't releasing the source for that.
How do we know that we are not getting the black version?
Alright I work at T-Mobile and my boss has a friend in tmobile that actually had a meeting with a HTC guy and he even held the one s he told me wonders about it but he also told me that in 2-4 months from release the black one will actually come to tmobile and that it was already confirmed so Id rather wait for the black one

i probably would not wait 2-3 month for the black version over the grey one myself however i can understand if someone does! first of all it's not only the color (and the more beautiful look) but also the texture and improved durability. if someone wants to keep the phone for 2 years maybe waiting 2 more month and actually get what you want might not be so crazy ... aside from that i consider myself also lucky living in a country wher the black unlocked version is already available
I can completely understand that it's an issue. just as mentioned: i wouldn't buy the gradient metal version either. but since i'm quite impatient i would definitely try ANY workaround but ok, i'm quite lucky not having to deal with this.. hope for you guys over there, that t-mobile is a bit quicker
Just to b clear we are all preety much coworkers I was just emphazising on the fact that it is someone ranked up to be tmobile's manager of all the tmobile dealers in my area he's not just a tmo sales rep like me and I dont even like my boss that much anyways

Yup, I got the email. As mentioned above, its for the unveiling of the new HTC flagship device. Code named M7, and rumor says it will be simply called the "One".
For those that didn't get the email, it links to this webpage: http://www.htc.com/www/?cid=email_promo_HTCTeaser_body_img_HTC
The webpage shows a blurry glimpse of the phone whenever the clock's seconds digit hits "1" second (51, 41, etc.). And the "1" turns green, further indicating that the new device will be carry the "One" branding.

I'll probably be looking for an upgrade to my One X in the next few months. So in terms of that, I don't think it will disappoint. Of course the DNA is very recent, so the new flagship wont be a huge leap forward in comparison. But the DNA isn't an option for me anyway.
Not sure I'm crazy about the looks of the new phone in the leaked photos (if they turn out to be true). But specs wise, I think I'll be happy.
I'm excited but disappointed with HTC not getting with AT&T to push Jelly Bean to our HTC One X... This will probably be my last HTC device, spent $549 on this phone to find it obsolete 9 months later while every other manufacturer is pushing JB to their devices. The issue is with HTC & AT&T, both are coming close to being on the same level in my opinion. This is the best phone I've ever owned and it's camera proved itself next to a Canon ELPH 320 HS & Canon T3 --- but if a company wants to purposely outdate their phones, they will lose customers such as myself.

Odd to see this type of comment on XDA. XDA exists so we can mod our phones however we like, not wait around for stock OTAs from our carrier. Just unlock your bootloader and be done with it. Jellybean has been available since last July (in the form of CM10), and "official" Sense JB since December. AT&T JB is not going to bring us anything we don't already have now.
The HTC One was unveiled this morning. Looks pretty hot:

According to HTC Facebook page.
It'll come when it comes
Interesting! Even if it doesn't come directly, we might be able to port it if the DNA gets it - the first working Sense JB ROM for the One XL was ported from the DNA, if I remember correctly.
We have amazing developers working on our device - I have confidence! :good:
That would be cool if it happens.
And remember, we just need one carrier to push it out to one compatible device (One X, EVO LTE, DNA) in order to get a port. Complaining about AT&T is not necessary here.
i would guess people in xda will port it before the official even rolling.
sounds great http://www.androidauthority.com/htc...terfly-to-get-sense-5-in-a-few-months-163296/
the full quote from the Facebook post is:
HTC will be offering upgrades to some of its existing devices in the next few months, including global variants of HTC One X, One X+, One S and the HTC Butterfly. Also, note that some features enabled by the new HTC One hardware will not be available in the software updates.

In all likelihood, AT&T will never push out a Sense 5 update to the One X. It would hurt sales of their flagship Sense 5 phones.

According to Koush on his G+ apparently the AT&T and Verizon S4 will be bootloader locked. Whilst the Verizon one probably will be the AT&T one would be a shock. I can't imagine this is true as the other galaxy devices on AT&T haven't been but I thought I'd let people know if this is the case I imagine it will be bypassed .
UPDATE: according to the engadget review they contacted Samsung who confirmed the s4 is bootloader locked. http://www.engadget.com/2013/04/24/samsung-galaxy-s-4-review/
UPDATE2: according to many sources one being Steve Kondik on he G+ the AT&T S4 is bootloader locked.

I don't think we should be all that concerned if this is true. I am coming from the HTC One X, which was rooted on day 1 on XDA and the bootloader was unlocked on day 3 or day 4 on XDA. If it is locked, it is only a matter of time.
if its locked im pretty sure adam will be more than willing to help unlock it like he did for the vzw s3 and note2 considering his main carrier is att

completely different than a htc. they are in no way locked the same way the htc unlock was basically a bypass of how htcdev worked. this will actually take hardware level scanning etc. and then finding an exploit somewhere in the bootloader or the pit
Wait, what? Link?
Yeah, where are you getting your information?
EDIT: Sorry, just saw the line about Koush on G+.

if the bootloader is locked you'll go to HTC Lololololol - you are aware that HTC locks all their bootloaders right?and if you wanna flash roms on the go you have to also s-off the device...otherwise you will need a computer for every Rom flash...or flashimagegui.apk if it supports your phone. And lately HTC s-off has required hardware tampering like my HTC vivid...you literally to short the phone while running a program with a wire...HTC is the worst android company (nice phones tho...)

Im thinking about grabbing the GS4 on my other line, which I'm sure i will...I already bought a few cases for it.. But anyways, I currently have the HTC One and its unlocked and rooted and I can flash roms on the go. I can also flash international roms as they also work on the ATT HTC One with no issues. And for everyone that likes CM, it was posted on G+ that almost the entire CM team grabbed a HTC One.

Koush said he had a source I do not know who it is & the HTC One is open after you use HTC Dev. The only disadvantage being you can't hide the fact you have done it until you get S-Off. Older HTC devices I agree flashing the boot.img on the One X was very annoying but the one isn't like this.

Wow I'm glad I never got an htc. I did hear they locked all bootloaders. I also heard that all verizon phones have locked bootloaders not too sure if that is true. But All I know is I have had the galaxy s, the galaxy 2 and 3 and the galaxy note 2. And oh yea then there was my first android phone the g2x (I wonder why I almost forgot about that one) I got to say I love my note2 it kicks ass and it sounds funny but my favorite was the s2 I don't know why but I just love that phone. Right now I am using the s3 because I dropped my note2. Its a nice phone but just not as good as the others. Plus its a picky processor. Unfortunately I regret the fact that I will not be getting an s4 because I am going to be tied up medically for the next year or so by the time I am around there will probably be an s5 or note 3 or 4 if they even go that far with them. Or who knows maybe samsung will start a new flagship. Sorry to go off topic fellas

The S2 was a perfect phone for the time. It's also been my favorite Android phone ever...but hopefully the S4 takes that title soon.

Im thinking about grabbing the GS4 on my other line, which I'm sure i will...I already bought a few cases for it.. But anyways, I currently have the HTC One and its unlocked and rooted and I can flash roms on the go. I can also flash international roms as they also work on the ATT HTC One with no issues. And for everyone that likes CM, it was posted on G+ that almost the entire CM team grabbed a HTC One.

While yes Steve Kondik himself got the AT&T HTC One... He also said he's going to carry both the S4 and the One in his review of the One. That being said... HTC has pissed away their chances with me. The One in my humble opinion is fugly, and the thing feels like a cheap toy.. I'm way more impressed by the build quality of my Nexus 4 or Optimus G.. Also I love having the ability to swap out the battery something I've missed having sold my S3 as well as the fact it has an SD card slot.. But that's just my opinion..

Same here. I'm absolutely done with HTC as a company after the Raider.
Who'd have thought that my decision to go with them because of solidly built devices and a good out-of-box experience would go so awry? Here I come, crawling back to Samsung (had an SGS1 previously).

The Nexus One was a great device, and I loved it.. But I've been quite disappointed with HTC ever since.. I like to give every company a fair shot, The One X (international version) was the last straw for me.. To be completely honest.. IF the Sony Xperia Z or ZL had the snapdragon 600 chipset, I would most likely be getting one instead. I can't justify spending more on that device with an older chipset for more money off contract. S4 is $639 before taxes.. Though I do have a Premier acct, so I'm going to TRY to get them to give me the $100 discount as well.. Never hurts to ask, ended up getting my launch date S3 for $49.99 after they matched Best Buy, and gave me the premier discount.. It's all in whom you talk to...
