Sprint Updating to Sense 6? - HTC One Max

Both Android Police and UberGizmo are reporting that the latest Sprint update for their One max, which brings wifi calling, will also be bringing Sense 6.
If so that's pretty amazing turnaround, though I don't see any updates on HTC's update page.
Is anybody on Sprint seeing an OTA with Sense 6?

Will be very eager if any Sprint users can check on this.

That's great, crazy fast. With Verizon's track record I'm sure it won't be that fast for the rest of us, but I guess one can hope.

I'm sure they'll have it by the end of summer, haha.
But, I'm sure the developers can muster up a pretty stable ROM to hold everyone else over. I have the One, not the Max on Sprint. I'm thinking if they got the update today, I won't be very far behind. I read that tweet and now I'm pasted to XDA, haha.

Confirmation. Just checked on my sprint one max and bammo. Now I have to find a stock recovery image.
Edit: anyone know where to get a copy of the stock image. Really don't want to have to ruu. I'm on rooted stock right now.

Just Posted the OTA in the dev section also.

I'd be really interested to know what the Sense 6 update has brought in terms of the camera? Specifically, does the camera now have manual focus like the M8 on Sense 6?

Yeah dude, update your OP with a system dump.. I've posted in other sections here how to "DD" the boot.img to the SD and then upload it, for the system just "adb pull /system/" and then zip it up and upload it here for us would be very very much appreciated!!! Flyhalf wants to get it ready for Verizon users..... Thanks bro

WTF? I have the International Unlocked version, shouldn't I have received the update before carrier subsidised phones?

Not necessarily, remember Sprint was going to release the Android 4.4.3 update to their Nexus 5 a few weeks ago but pulled it due to some issues.. That means the Sprint Nexus 5 would have had it before the GSM Unlocked Google Nexus 5.. lol.... Crazy how things have been transpiring hehe

Sorry about that, I didn't mean to sound butt-hurt about it. I was just under the impression that the unlocked international versions were always the first to receive updates according to their diagram that they released a month or 2 ago.

Okay finally after updating I flashed the hotspot fix and installed supersu through twrp and now when i unlock my phone I get "this app is not compatable with your phone" I can't do anything other than go through my notifications... It says unauthorized device above the message... This is really odd...

Not to sound like I don't care about your issue, but could you make a backup and upload it despite it being wonky?
I would try a factory reset first(wipe data).
If not, ok. But Flyhalf and I would be most grateful.
Thanks! Or anyone who could do so would be awesome! :good::fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed::good:

Now I have wiped all but system and it still goes right to unauthorized device this app is not compatabile with your device... Starting to panic a bit... Really don't feel like Ruuing again tonight... Might have to. So a warning this may not be rootable right now... Or I'm a retard...

Flash stock recovery and do a factory reset.
That should resolve any issues...
Just a suggestion, wish I had this phone.
Would have a rooted rom up by now.
I personally just want the dump for dna, m7, t6, and m8 ports...

Looks like I'm skanky flashing Mean 3.4 and waiting for a clean wipe then... LOL
Keep calm and flash on...
Remember, if you are rooted NEVER ACCEPT AN OTA UPDATE AS YOU RUN THE RISK OF LOSING ROOT!
I'm guessing it has a new kernel as well, right? 1.22.651.1 source will be released in 4 weeks now. Heh.
Thanks for sharing this!
EDIT: This is what Mikey had to say about it...
mikeyxda said:
Yeah, looks like Sense 4.1 is rolling out. FWIW, I looked at the Sense 4.1 changes and it's nothing to get too excited about. We've already fixed a lot of stuff that Sense 4.1 fixes. For example, they claim better multitasking but I looked at the changes and you know what they did? They put in one bandaid that elevates the stock browser's OOM priority so it doesn't get killed as often and they put in a timer so the system could tell how "stale" a process is: killing older ones (that haven't been touched for a while) first. Kinda short sighted on the browser though, because it only fixes the kill problem for the stock browser. If you use Chrome, ICS Browser, Boat, Opera, or any of the others, no gain. I've already made some adjustments to elevate important tasks like SuperUser, Google Framework, etc. so they don't killed. Will be interesting to see how the two (my modded stuff and Sense 4.1) compare. They say Sense 4.1 has less bloat. We'll see. So far, what I've seen by looking under the hood of Sense 4.1 looks like nothing but a few strategically placed bandaids.

Yes, there is a new kernel as well as new radio. Should also hope that means they adjusted our phones to improve LTE as they did with the Nexus and S3. As mentioned other quick changes are we are now on Android 4.0.4 and Sense 4.1. Not sure if the quicksettings menu was really actually a part of stock Sense 4.1 as I never found concrete evidence stating it was but we didn't get it. We do obviously have the ability to remap the recent apps button and they finally added YouTube to the app associations menu so if you click on a YouTube link it opens the app and not the browser. I'm hoping EAS for hotmail is fixed as well but I will have to wait and see.

You said that right!
I told people that they would go back to the Evo 3D days (in the video), where you couldn't flash a kernel in recovery, and I was right!
Do NOT apply updates, if you enjoy root. And if you're here on XDA, you're probably enjoying root access, or trying to!

I hope this fixes my wi-fi issues currently running stock with goodies. So my understanding to update radios if you are htc dev unlocked is to relock and run an ruu? How long before a new version of the ruu gets posted? Wouldn't this risk breaking the currently working root methods? I don't need detailed instructions just the best steps in order to update to the latest radios.

Oh well, I hadn't seen that. I thought 1.13 was the last source release HTC blessed us with. My bad and good lookin out.

Well hopefully all the commits I'm adding will keep the kernel relevant, lol.

A new HBoot? Seriously? I can't even do what I want to because I'm on 1.15 already. Now I'm scared to take this update that I really badly want.
But, I guess a brighter point to this situation is that HTC and Sprint are moving along pretty quickly with pushing out updates. Not sure if this means we'll get JB soon, but I would imagine shortly after the One X gets it, we'll be getting it as well. This kinda caught me off guard.
are the radios worth it? what do they do new?

[PLEASE STICKY] Software Update 2.17.605.2 FAQs

Verizon recently released update 2.17.605.2 to our phone. It updates our phone from Android 4.0.3 to 4.0.4, and from Sense 4.0 to 4.1. The official changelog is here.
You can defer the update if you catch it in time, but it appears you have approximately 5 minutes from the time it downloads until it installs. It appears you also can't defer it more than 5 days into the future. You can also attempt to Force Stop the HTC DM app, but not all results have been effective.
ROOT
Andybones has obtained S-OFF with the help of Team unlimited.io. It will hopefully be released soon for the rest of us after finishing testing.
Other known improvements:
Tabs button in the default browser.
Youtube now has its own association in Settings -> App associations.
Expected but missing features:
Our phone did not receive the built-in feature to change the Recent Apps button to a Menu button, as all other phones with Sense 4.1 have.
ISIS may or may not be available to you, depending on where you live. Supposedly it only works near Austin, TX and Salt Lake City, UT.
Bugs:
The default Messages app lags severely when switching between the tabs at the bottom.
Your HBOOT may now say *** TAMPERED *** at the top, despite you never having unlocked your phone. It does not seem to cause any ill-effects, but probably voids your warranty.
This list will be updated if necessary. If you have any questions, ask.

when s-off is out (soon id say) you can flash mods to the stock rom you run for it w/o having to flash a full custom rom (or just a stock modified rom)
wont void your warranty (well it will..but) as you dont need to register w/ htc when you soff (unlock dev unlock), so if you need to exchange/sell phone, you can go back to s on easily (well usually, depends what is released)
Nit is 100% correct, we should be able to turn back to S-ON for security purposes and other reasons.
here would be how
1)donwload and run an RUU for the most current build
2)open a cmd window. plug in phone,charge only mode,usb debugging on.
3)run the following:
adb devices
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot devices
fastboot oem writesecureflag 3
fastboot reboot-bootloader
*verify you are locked s-on
fastboot reboot

confirming missing ISIS in latest OTA
Well, since I received the OTA yesterday for 2.17.605.2, I've searched everywhere on the phone and I can't find ISIS. I'm assuming it wasn't part of my OTA which I've been able to find only limited info on, that VZ might have removed it from the latest OTA. The OP mentions certain areas that might be affected so I'll just mention I'm in SE Michigan for what it's worth.
(EDIT --> Go to Settings, select More, then select NFC to 'allow data exchange when the phone touches another device' and the NFC feature will be enabled. The 'N' Symbol for NFC will appear between next to the 4G LTE symbol at the top of the screen.)

[WHAT?!] Bootloader Unlockable!?

Hey guys!
A fellow AT&T One owner was able to get an unlock.bin file from htcdev.com, leading me to believe that the bootloader on the AT&T HTC One might actually be unlockable. He has not gotten back to me with a picture of the HBOOT screen saying that it is unlocked, but the fact that he was able to get an unlock.bin file means that he got pretty far into the process.
Please go to htcdev.com and try to unlock your bootloader and report back here with results.
Thanks!

With 2 i'll have a better chance of getting a flawless one Plus i'll have one in hand while the other is sent back for gap replacement (assuming it has a gap) plus I dont think i'll have a problem selling it....Once you see this phone in person and hold it you will want it.

Just because the bootloader is unlocked doesn't mean you can flash a kernel from a custom recovery. The (AT&T) One X+ was able to have an unlocked bootloader, but you still couldn't flash a kernel from a custom recovery.
Tapered comes from altering/removing stock is in any way

I've got my One, just delivered today. I have *never* owned an Android before. So, this is super brand new for me. I have NO idea what I'm doing. I'm reasonably tech savvy, but I don't have time to google my bum off and do the self-teaching, since time is short... I want to get this bootloader unlocked-- How do I do it? I seriously have no clue. I have found the htcdev site, but I don't have any idea what to do with it, or what you have to do first, ANYTHING. Can someone give me a brief step by step on this?? You can assume that I'm smart and can figure out what you're talking about-- I just need brief step by step instructions. Please??

[Q] MIUI on a Verizon S4?

I'd love to see it as well, but haven't heard anything just yet. Most of our AOSP roms have a few bugs yet, but many are quite stable. Since MIUI is AOSP-based now, we could see it sometime if there's a willing dev out there.
If you want something like it right now, try the Avatar rom in the development forum. It's basically a CM10.1 rom with the MIUI theming engine.

I've got it booted, it definitely runs, just need to get DATA working.
If anyone wants to throw their hat in the ring, by all means, lets do it. I miss MIUI.
EDIT- Alright, well, I'm working on building a fully functioning MIUI now. I need testers, however. Just be aware, you test at your own risk and I am not responsible in any way for anything that happens to your phone. PM me if you'd like.

I think you can find multiple definitions of "fried" in the no-fault disclaimer in any MIUI thread.

It's not as easy as "soft or hard brick."
The radio fried, whether or not this was a software or a hardware issue was never determined, as the radio never worked again after ODIN/NANDROID backups were restored. That said, it was likely hardware.

Oh, lol.
Well the ROM definitely runs, I will upload it shortly after I finish rebuilding it. I need to test the data.

Actually I've decided I'm not going to do this. After too many problems with getting booted and what not, and once it's running, things not functioning correctly, I can't afford to break my device.
There are directions for porting in the internationa galaxy s4 thread, which will at least get it booted. The rest is up to you.

Need to get rid of the ugly roaming indicator off crap. And the signal bars aren't reporting correctly. But I've got reliable data, phone, and text.

Well, yes. MIUI was one of them. I was asked by Jonestown if I could give it a go. It wasn't too bad but it was tricky compared to other aosp ports.
As you will notice in my updater script when I post it... I don't like miui. Not even a little bit. I worked on miui v4 and hated that. And now in v5 and I still hate it.
But hating it doesn't mean I can't make it mostly work. I just probably won't put the same amount of time into it's support I do the interesting stuff.

[**ATTENTION DEVELOPERS**] Bootloader Unlock

We are over $2300 for a bootloader unlock. I am curious is there anyone out there who has attempted any work on this goal yet?

Samsung galaxy s5 hit 18k before an unlock but money shouldn't make to much of a difference I'm sure the people who brought us root are working on it though
They recently fixed some twrp stuff for the D851, just hoping they're next target is unlocking bootloaders but only time will tell
Following them on twitter you'll find more info and updates than asking for it on an xda post

Ya I stopped buying Samsung, because it took 18k to root the damn thing, way to locked down, kills the fun. But being over $2300 in just over 11 days isn't too bad. That Samsung bounty went for a very long time. There were also a few people who individually pledged huge amounts of money. I really loved the specs for the S5, and the battery life.
That is until I heard about the LG G3. This phone is amazing. You know how a phone no matter how good it is, always has just one major fault? Sadly the only thing keeping the G3 from being the "perfect" phone is the QHD screen. Although I consider it a fault, this is also a plus, I would much rather have 1080p and the extra screen battery time, thank god for my extra batteries and charger, I swear I get total phone anxiety paranoia if I don't have a removable battery. However I am getting 35-40 hours between charges, but thats only when I have about 3 hours screen time in that span. I run at 50% brightness, and the screen gulps battery. Other than that the battery is amazing! This is without using ART too. This thing would last days without the QHD screen.
Did anyone ever figure out what apps needed to be freezed to get ART functioning?
I wonder if Adam Outler would be willing to look at this phone.

Well I've heard it's only among Verizon variants so probably a Verizon app that's causing it, I wanna know what type of crash it is
And even if ART worked, I couldn't use it yet. I use apps that have compatability issues
It's easy to debug an error, if I had a recovery I would take the fall and see what's causing issues on ART for us but I've already had to factory reset once and I don't wanna do it again

Lets See What We Can Do
Ok well I have seen some posts from different people about various RE skills so lets get to work and do this thing. I have done this kind of thing before but have never pulled apart an android image. I know PBL boots SBL1 boots SBL2 and RPM but I do not know the addresses that these are loaded into and executed from. I have attached the SBL1.idc file that will create the IDA database for the SBL1. This needs to be base relocated to the correct address but that is an easy adjustment when we know where to put it.
One of the first things the SBL does is switch to various ARM modes (supervisor, fiq, irq, etc) and sets the stack pointer to 0xF8002000 from there is branches off to 0xF8041F00 (thumb) but since I do not know the memory map I cant track that down. Also it looks like there is some relocation code in there. Code that copies chucks to other locs. There also appears to be some signatures near the end of the file.
If anyone can help me flesh out the database that would awesome. Even loading addrs info would be great. By the way their are a ton of juicy strings in there , this makes the process of RE much easier.
N.B.
I did not create the Stack segment yet as I want make sure this is loaded to the correct address first. There may be some gaps in code still (like the very middle, but I think that is all supposed to be relocated) but it is mostly all disassembled.
Anyone seen this yet?

Considering Autoprime reposted it, I consider it good enough.
This is some very promising news! Fingers crossed!
I'll be the first to say.. My Body is Ready
me too man
I've read and re-read the Fast Boot method to TWRP for the International G3 and I'm ready for when this drops for us.
Hopefully the time that we all have waiting for this others on Verizon do the same since it's not as easy as just a button combo,!

I wonder if someone like Savoca could create a custom bootloader that we could replace the stock one with completely to just do whatever we want.
