HTC Butterfly will not get the official Lollipop update from HTC, in fact they skipped the KitKat update as well!
But, Thanks to the Developers of InsertCoin :good:, we could experience KitKat on the Butterfly.
Hope the Developer team can transplant the Htc One Lollipop to Htc Butterfly as well.
Very eager to get Lollipop on my Butterfly & give it a fresh lease of life!

Yeap it will be very exciting to see Android L on the Butterfly. As for official Kitkat, HTC does provide them. Its a 4.4.2 Sense 5.5 and not a Sense 6 version. There's a problem for developing Android L for our Butterfly, developers does not have a butterfly device to test/develop on. So this hinder any development(Rom/Kernel) on the Butterfly. :crying:

Don't be so eager about IC. M7 got updated firmware and latest IC relies on it. We didn't and we won't.
I hardly convinced xxxminwhooperxxx to help me with porting of IC3.0.6 to Butterfly, but now she's completely retired and we don't have anyone who is related to IC and is interested in porting.
I'm trying to get some help form other IC guys anyway, but seems they don't really care either. And given lack of updated firmware... we're out of luck even more.

Not good to hear
But, specs wise M7 and Butterfly are almost same, hence transplanting the M7 firmware & Lollipop update to Butterfly should not be difficult, right?
Lollipop Sense 7

Thanks to Dev xiaoxiang for doing such a great job for the butterfly.
Enjoy
A few weaks ago I read a news about outrolling Android Lollipop. In this article there also was the information that it maybe as well would run on older devices caused of lower hardware-requirements of Android 5.0. Htc hasn't given much information yet. So what do you think, will our ONE SV get Lollipop (official or dev-version/ported)?
I don't think HTC will bring us the official version but isn't anybody able to port it? Would be a great project.

mmm i think we will never see other improvements in software... upgrading to kitkat was also possible but HTC didn't released and i believe it's a number matter: those who bought HTC one sv aren't too many...

and of the not too many.. none were developers that stayed with it.. personally.. im thinking new phone in 2015 and passing my one sv down to my 6 year old
probably this post will be deleted but i found a way to flash lollipop in our phone...
http://www.lollipop-port.org/mp3-0/htc-one-sv-5105.html
does anyone know anything about it?
EDIT i saw what kind of links they are. just asking if it could be possible
are you serious? the screenshot on that site are from skydragon rom on htc one m8 and they are edited + links & video are fake.
probably it's better to close this thread as we all know that there will NOT be any further update for this device.
it's a waste of time doing these searches on web.

This question is not answerable. 4.4.4 is the latest official rom for our Verizon needed htc m8 phones. The m9 is the rumored successor to the m8 which has not yet even been officially announced. Therefore there is no "m9 run" that could possibly exist.
When you say you are "unlocked to any network" I assume you just mean you have an unlocked bootloader? There is no process that will make your phone able to receive any carrier's RUUs.
Perhaps you mean an ruu for the android 5 (lollipop) rom which has been released for international variants of the m8. You should not flash that ruu to your phone and I wouldn't be surprised if it wouldn't let you anyway. You can flash ported versions of those roms which despises have made to work with our Verizon branded m8s. If you're looking for a clean start on your phone then there are threads made which cover that in great detail for the official 4.4.4 & 4.4.3 releases.
Hi guys, i've got a Telstra HTC ONE XL and im looking for the best, most stable custom rom.
Would anyone link me it? With its google apps as well? Thankyou !
PS: amazing forum!
You can download the latest Lollipop 5.1.1 from cyanogenmod. They have released the latest Lollipop ROM for this device.
go to download.cyanogenmod.com and look for the device evita.
search for gapps for evita lollipop in google and you would get the google apps.
Alternatively go to this thread and you would find the details you are looking for....
CyanogenMod 12 for HTC One XL (Evita) | AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL
cheers :good:
There's no such thing as the best ROM. Everyone has their own tastes and needs from a ROM. The best ROM is the one that suits you best after you've done your own testing.
This thread is for discussion on Android 6.0 Marshmallow availability for E8.
Devices under HTC Advantage program will get the update within 2 or 3 month later.
M8 and e8 ROMs are closely the same it will soon ported and waiting for that hope to be a better camera

After seeing on HTC's site[1] that there's currently no plans to bring Marshmallow to the Sprint E8, I started thinking about porting the M8 release myself. Is that what you're hinting at?
Based on the fact that the E8 is essentially just the M8 with a different camera setup, I still expect HTC to bring Marshmallow to the E8. The porting process shouldn't be that much extra work for them. Especially for the non-Sprint variants as they wouldn't have to go through the additional process of carrier certification and thus be even less work.
I forget how long the delay was between Sprint's M8 getting Lollipop and then the E8 getting it (a few months?), but the M8 Marshmallow update is out now so I'm thinking it might just require a little patience.

I already have Android MarshMallow ( 6.0.x ) kernel ported and compiled for the Sprint E8 and I'm waiting on mine to come in the mail as I ordered one this past week.... I promise I'll have GPE and Sense MM roms up before HTC even decides to update the e8 , just be patient as I didn't order one for no reason... Plus I rather risk my device before anyone else because I know how to properly port between msm8974 chipset... if you'd like you could be one of my tester... I can guarantee they will be flawless ports too.
Now the Dual SIM e8 I can port kernel for too , just would need a dual sim unit to make sure both sim slots work on each port... but dual sim variants I can't guarantee anything but I could help... and I believe dual sim variants are msm8975 chipset.

Damn! You don't mess around, do you? Yeah, I'd be happy to test.
In the meantime, do you have a web presence for your work (github or the like)? I'd love to have a look.

Count me in as a tester? Maybe you could do a cyanogen mod to? That would be way more worth it to me, unless this Rom would be bloat ware free, in which case......I'd squee xD
I would Gladly become a tester for the ROM on the E8. PM me with the details!

I am running the sprint variation of the HTC one E8 and I would be glad to be a tester whether it is for the Asian model or American as I can tweak enough to properly utilize it in my region.
