Well, on the heals of the announcement that our excellent device is now DOA due to lack of manufacturer support (ugh, AND I JUST BOUGHT THIS THING 3 WEEKS AGO!!!!!) I have decided to start a device request over with the CM team...
http://forum.cyanogenmod.org/topic/101462-huawei-ascend-mate-2-mt2l03-device-request/
We have the same SoC as the HTC Desire 816 - not apples to apples but atleast there should be some commonality for certain areas - so hoping we can get something started. Please light up the device request so we can try to get some buzz.

Where did you see that Huawei announced there will be no device support for our US model? If this is the case I will get rid of mine today.
They confirmed no KK, see thread here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/ascend-mate2/general/confirmed-kitkat-t2921399
And even their US offices aren't being given any info about any other updates, i.e. Lollipop. :crying:

Hell, I've had it less than 30 days. I'll return it to Amazon and get my money back.
I just signed up on the CyanogenMod Forums (I thought I already was, but I guess not) . I'll keep an eye on over there as well.
put a comment on our thread so they know we have support but but motherf875ees4 I really would like to slap HuaweiUSA

I'm not against custom ROMs obviously, but I hope you realize they don't care about device requests. The only way we'll get one is if some random nice developer (like Modding) comes along and decides to help.
We'll just have to wait and see (...again) what those developers that got a free Bait2 at BABBQ are going to do. That is, if they're going to do anything.

Stop bothering us, we're working on it that's all you really need to know. Just relax and enjoy the tablet itself. Ok? We're not your personal servants, we're just regular people with other things in our lives going on than just developing. Basically, GET THE HELL OFF OUR BACKS. Kthx.
Thanks to you, and all the dev's who devote your time and effort then share to all the masses. Wish some people would get that and be a little grateful at the very least. If you guys ever need a tester let me know otherwise you will see my thanks button clicked as many times as I can.

No one is on YOUR back. If you don't want the 400$ then don't mess with it period. Neither you nor any other dev has the right to tell me what to do with my tablet. If i want a unlocked bootloader in the next seven days then I have the right to ask for it period.
Please dont participate by any means
What he is saying is that YOU aren't doing it. Begging for bootloader unlocks and offering money won't get it done any quicker. The people developing / hacking this device do it because they want to, not for money. By asking for it to be done you are asking the developers, and Indirect is one.

What you're offering amounts to minimum wage if you consider the person works on it for 8 hours a day for the next 7 days. On top of that, you are rude and have a strong sense of self entitlement. The developers do it out of personal self interest. Any other incentives are just icing on the cake.

There are likely many people working on this and there are probably more than the vocal few here or associated with this site. I think some people can appreciate the work being done while also knowing that those telling others about progress and status aren't the only ones doing some work on this device which is why the OP just threw an offer out.
There also seem to be a great number of people blindly following people just due to words they say, and as they say, talk is cheap. Excitement is one thing but it wouldn't hurt to know what they are getting excited about sometimes.
Personally I've been using Linux or *nix based operating system daily for 10 years and it's just a little bit disappointing sometimes to see a general lack of knowledge related to Linux when it comes to some pretty basic things that relate to Android and getting anywhere with it from "hacking". And I literally am just a user and absolutely do not write code, just copy and paste it about when there are things to fix at the very extreme. The solution here without getting "the key" is going to come from someone writing the code to make it work and maybe $400 or $500 or beyond will bring a person to spend some time on it where they normally wouldn't.
Another point, if he has the 400 to offer and the 250 to spend on it, why not just buy a full on android tablet?
All I can say is thanks for making my NT usable in the first place! Without the sideloading/root ability it would be practically useless. Devs adding even more function would just be icing on the cake, so no sweat.
Just to set the record straight, you're only hearing from the impatient vocal ones. There's a lot more of us sitting quietly on the sidelines cheering you guys on.

LOL I am begging for a bootloader unlock? How about I am trying to get more than ONE developer working on the Nook Tablet. You do realize we had 30+ on the Nook Color right?
Your comments are flaming and just down right wrong. Look up the definition of begging in the dictionary and I promise you won't find offering to pay someone to do a job in the definition.
I love how you think EVERY dev is only here for fun, which is complete BS. Probably 50% of devs are here to develop for THEMSELVES, and just release to the public because they are good people. Then another 40% do it for cash, and then you have the 10% who do it just because they are bored. All I am offering is someone besides the 1 dev we have to look at the problem, and if they break it give them a reward.
Like I said in the post if you don't want to try, then don't. No one is holding a gun to your head.

I have 300$ wrapped up in my nook tablet, and it has to be returned by next monday. Once I pay shipping back then spend hours researching a new tablet I will easily have more than 400$ in it.
I loved the nook color, and I bought the Nook Tablet because I was told by 2 different BN employees that it was unlocked (before we had any devs).
My returning the NT because I was lied to is my choice, period.
Like I said if you don't want to participate in the reward, then DON'T.
But my guess is, if you broke the bootloader u would be loudly demanding the reward, as would Indirect and everyone else who is complaining.
I am not flaming. You are requesting a bootloader unlock way too soon. These things take time. Why not just return it, then wait for a bootloader unlock to come out, then buy it again? Or just buy a full out android tablet?
Wow. So 12 posts, $400 bucks and you own the joint.

I very well may do that, but would rather not go to the hassle of packaging it back up and shipping it back to BN and dealing with that whole mess. Then spending hours research which other tablet I want to buy. I loved the NC and the NT has the potential in doing the same. We need devs here first and foremost and none are going to come without incentive.
For me I want try and get some more devs to the NT so we have a chance at a decent device. One dev isn't going to make it that and having a locked bootloader will make sure no others come if there isn't an incentive. If you don't believe me about the devs go check out the Droid Bionic. Killer hardware, locked bootloader, out for several months and a total of 3 devs whose hands are tide because of the crappy kernel
Return the NT and leave a comment to the CTO of BN telling them they have a crappy product with a locked bootloader. Complaining on Xda will get you nowhere. You could employ your own personal dev to unlock the bootloader, but don't use money to entice devs Xda members. EOS.
Am I the only one that is sick of HTC lagging on releasing source code. I'm so tired of them dragging their sorry asses around with slow code releases for our phones. The whole thing is so stupid.
First we have the stupid 1.5 Hboot problem. What a pain in the ass. All so a few thousand people can't properly tinker with the device, which they paid good money for. That is so weak. And from a company that is supposed to be dev friendly. Right. All they are is annoying the most loyal customers they have.
Next we have the lack of source code for the newest kernel, 2.17.651.5. Without this code, the entire developer section is divided. We want the features from the established roms, but we can't have them along with the new OTA updates without your code. Just release it already. We are not going to sell it or start our own phone companies for F sake. We can't even use our cameras properly since you gave us botched camera code compared to other similar phones. Only god knows why you would do that.
PLEASE, if an HTC rep reads this, please help the community out. Give us the complete tools to unlock our phones, and the code to customize our phones as we see fit. We all promise to not break them and return them for one of the millions you already have sitting around the world. We already bought your stupid phone(s). Now give us the tools to make them better.
Thank you.
ps
When you release the update for ICS, please give us the option to run with or without Sense. Some of us love it, some of us hate it. But let it be our choice. Perhaps you could make Sense a bundle of widgets on top of ICS. I don't care how you do it, just do it right for a change.

That post sums up the reasons why I won't be buying anymore HTC phones. And when all the people who come to me for help with their phones ask for advice (which is several times per week), I will make sure I tell them all to get a Samsung or Motorola. I won't be recommending anymore HTC devices.

Why don't I sell it? Because there isn't another 3D phone on Sprint at the moment and I got stuck in a 2 year contract when I bought this phone. Common sense.

I agree with him - this phone is "meh" AT BEST as long as HTC does business this way. I'm constantly checking my contract end date because I'm going to bail unless HTC changes things. Unfortunately, it's probably going to be a sammy. Oh I almost forgot to ask - please bugger off.

I haven't seen it. I'm hoping now that google owns them things will change. I won't be buying one of their phones until they are unlockable though, so it doesn't matter.

Yeah Motorola aren't saints either, matter fact, all of these phone manufacturers are no good, its just a matter of picking your poison when choosing a manufacturer & phone.

Now thats a positive for Sammy, I seen them release source code BEFORE carriers release OTA's!
Maybe we can try to get some attention if we all express our frustration on the Verizon support forums.
I propose we flood the forums with topics about the INC4g and how little support the phone gets. We need to express our concerns on their ground, and threaten to switch carriers. I already stated that I would be switching to AT&T. Maybe we can get enough attention and get a response! I believe it is worth a try, what do we really have to lose??

The droid Incredible 4G LTE was the best phone to be release since the Droid Incredible. Verizon Wireless has locked the bootloader on the Droid Incredible 4G LTE. That means that they own the device not you. It would be like me coming into your house and using your phone, playing on your computer, or sending a virus to your network. With a locked bootloader VZW can update your device with out any real knowledge of how you use your phone. I customize everything I own except the Droid Incredible 4G LTE because even through it is paid for VZW owns it. I dont rent I buy but VZW has taken away my right to own that was given to me in the Constitution. Be aware that VZW has become a monopoly and they will own you if you let them.

Verizon actually moved the IDEA topic to a more relevant Android forum, as opposed to the Off-Topic forum in which I was forced to post it initially. They also made it readable without needing to sign-in first. These are both positive steps by the VZW mods.
It would be great if we could get some more up-votes on the idea to show them we would appreciate an official solution!

Hello Phil
We have an important update about your order. Due to shipping issues with the 32G unlocked and 64G Developers Editions of the New HTC One®, there will be a slight delay in shipping your HTC One® to you. We expect to have your phone delivered to you, via overnight shipping, before the end of April. We’ll do everything we can to get it shipped to you as soon as possible.
Also, due to overwhelming demand, there will be a delay in shipping your free case. We expect to begin receiving the Double Dip cases in mid-May, and will ship them as soon as they’re available.
We understand the excitement and anticipation that comes with a new phone, and we are confident that the HTC One® will exceed that anticipation
Thanks for the support,

Way to drop it, again and again with the same phone
Well damn that sucks, i guess the the only phone they have available on release date is the silver one.
Quick question about the Dev edition, besides it being unlocked from the factory I am correct in assuming that software updates will be faster as not restricted by the carrier? If so since I would be buying off contract that this would be the way to go. Only down side is not getting it today and will have to wait on the backorders.
Thanks

Yeah, faster updates if you ever get your phone. Just cancelled my order and picked up the AT&T version.

Official HTC Comment
Hi all,
I'm an official HTC rep (see the tag under my user name, as confirmed by Svetius and the mods). We apologize for the inconvenience of the delays. I know it's very frustrating, and honestly we're frustrated, too -- the One is such an awesome device, it's unfortunate the buying experience is being tarnished for a few customers by unforeseen delays. Please bear with us while we work through these challenges, and we will hopefully have the One Developer Edition in customers' hands very soon.
Here's an official statement we're releasing today:
"We're excited that the new HTC One is now available through AT&T, Sprint T-Mobile and numerous national retail partners; however, we are experiencing unforeseen delays with shipping for the pre-ordered the 32GB SIM-unlocked and 64GB developer edition. We are working to fullfill orders as quickly as possible but the latest delivery for any customers will be before the end of April. We apologize to these customers for the delay. We know there is a lot of excitement for this phone and we can't wait to get this device into all of our customers' hands."

Android Central has a good article that gives background on the delays. Please read it here.
Yup just canceled mine after receiving that email. The ATT version will be just fine. I got a perfect one, no gaps

As far as faster updates.. If you use custom roms you wont be getting OTA's anyway so it doesn't matter. If the Update released for the dev phone is a good update, the devs will use that as a base to build a custom rom. If you plan to stay on stock software then maybe there is an advantage. But normally people buying dev phones are gonna use custom roms.

Thanks for stopping by.
Please use the delay to add the multi-tasking button and remove the HTC logo so I can buy one

I got the same email this morning, I just checked it again and it says my order is on its way. woohoo. Things happen, I know it sucks, but it really is not the end of the world and certainly not the trouble of cancelling orders just to get your hands on it the day it comes out.
I was looking into purchasing this. Why does their website still say it is "In Stock" then?
Delay is better than a gap, off set speaker grill or unflush screen...bc if mine has any of those its going strait back for another anyways.

This thread is simply to count the people who have the Huawei Ascend Mate 2 so the dev's will realize how popular (or unpopular) the device is. I've had the HAM 2 since it came out and have been waiting for rooting methods to come out, but I can't find ANY info on it.
I came from the OnePlus forums, and just recently made my account here so don't hate if I did something wrong, just let me know.
Got one as well....i really like this phone but i'm waiting for that kit kat hopefully
Had mine about 4 weeks now
You can have my HAM2, when you pry it from my cold dead fingers!
I love this thing!
Mine 3 days old
Still on the first charge lol. My iPhone 5s has only -4hrs screen time, the HAM2 is a beast.
It is not all about processor as long as it has no lag one bit and not one app crashed on mine.
For $299 and get $30 T mobile unlimited all prepaid plan, I just wish I can cancel my grandfathered unlimited plan on at&t. Never turn my wifi ON and every month Minimum of 20gb data
I just don't know yet how to mirror my netflix on HAM2 to my chromecast?

Just go to the netflix app and there should be a chromecast icon at the top. I use it every night!

I mean mirror the entire phone display not just the netflix app, I have a lot of streaming video from the browser.

To mirror the entire phone display I'm pretty sure you need to have a separate adapter just for that.
The only way to cast a chrome tab (from a phone) is to enable a setting only available in KitKat. Just another reason to find a Root+ROM.
Please Devs!!!
Please Devs root this phone for us. It is awesome.

Agree!!! would love to see some development. How cool would Cyanogen be on this phabulous 6.1" screen! :good::good:
Hello all,
I think we may need a bounty to get root! We've already started thinking about it in the old P6/Mate 1 thread. Anyone else in?!
Yessir
I registered just to voice my support for this phone. And I use the case that came with my preorder though I do have the black back.
Another owner here. I absolutely love my ham2. I'd put something down on a bounty if that happened.
Got one
Another owner checking in. Love it and waiting for root eagerly

Root plz. I really miss screencasting.
I have had this phone since it launched in the US. I love it, but I wish that it could be rooted.
It could be rooted, it just seems that we need to pitch in for a bounty so that a developer could do it for us.
There doesn't seem to be any developers on our phone, and none of the existing root methods for any other phone exists.
Got one when released in the US.
