Does anyone know what happened with @ravikanthchary and the xperia z5 lite rom he was developing. When he made his thread, rom wasn't ready and place holders are forbidden. But now a period has passes and i was wondering if anyone knows the whereabouts.
Haha I have the same question. But I'm guessing if it was really ready for release he would have contacted the admins to reopens thread by now. Judging by the state of other developments for this phone, I don't think a release will be up any time soon. Eagerly waiting though
The thread has been opened. Download link is into his 3D
Hello, I want to ask if anyone has any information when will our v10 be upgraded to Nougat? Thanks
Looked into it a lot, about the most definitive thing I found was "maybe February or March". And that was a maybe.

I agree with you on that. The BEST I could find was February or March, and that is just guessing. LG has been "tight lipped" from what I read.
Well Korean model V10s have gotten Marshmallow in February of last year and rest of the world got them from March onwards so here's hoping.
I never got round to rooting my Mate 10 Pro earlier in the year. I recently got into the idea of it and was searching for hours to try and find out how to unlock my bootloader, like i did with my honor 7 and honor 9, but I could not find the page. Looking further into it I found that Huawei had removed the ability to do this. I emailed their support and they told me it cannot be done anymore, even by them. I then looked into DC unlocker and emailed the Devs of that but was informed it would not work while I am on Oreo. Does anyone here know how I can root my phone?
If you didn't get an unlock code you are currently out of luck, I hate to say this but you could look at funkyhuawei if you are before the june security patch.
As of yet I do not believe there is a way to unlock without an official code, maybe in the future

I had looked into funkyhuawei but they were a bit pricey. Thank you for your help anyway, I'm quite disappointed in Huawei's decision to remove it.
Anyone have an idea if this phone can be rooted?

I'm also interested in this. It is a Android One phone but this does not seem to imply being unlockable?
I've contact Nokia support a few days ago to ask if the official bootloader unlock will also be available for the 7.1. They replied (quite quickly) that they could not confirm an unlock will be available, only for 8 now, but that news about this would be coming soon.

I hope it is seeing how I'm planning on picking 2 of these up. I could see them not allowing it officially since the 8 is their flagship phone. I know HTC used to allow almost all of their phones to be unlocked. LG only allows their flagship devices to be unlocked, the V and G series. I so hope this isn't the case with Nokia.
EDIT: Spelling, sorry
This seems to suggest Kingroot works; can anyone confirm?

Looks like a generic guide, highly unlikely that it will work. The other method listed there needs an unlocked bootloader which isn't officially possible (yet?) and twrp.

Go here
The link is for U12+
U12 Life doesn't have "Personalize" option in the settings. It isn't possible to change navigation bar at all.
What's going on with this phone? There are *zero* posts about it anywhere outside this thread -- the "real life review" forum is completely empty. The retailers near me have cut the prices like the phone gives you the plague or something, currently 200 EUR for a phone that launched at 350. I'd think about buying one, since SD 636, 4/64GB, 1080p for 200 EUR is a steal, but I can't even find any accessories online. Is HTC in such a bad place that the phone died at launch?
I bought one online and I love it. 6" display, is fast, Bluetooth works well, The battery lasts forever. 1 day of heavy use and it only goes down to 65%. Great price on it..... only downside is I can't find any development on it but it has had 2 updates. running Oreo 8.1 and sense 10. I wouldn't be scared of it. What kind of accessories are you looking for? I have 2 cases for it I found on e-bay. Comes with a set of headphones.

Did you unlock bootloader in your u12 life?
I bought u12 life European unlocked version a couple days ago and I can`t get token required to generate unlock.bin file.
Try a couple time, Win 10 and Linux, always get this response :
Code:
C:\Program Files (x86)\HTC\HTC Sync Manager\HTC Sync>fastboot oem get_identifier_token
...
FAILED (remote: unknown command)
finished. total time: -0.000s
htc_fastboot finished. total time: 0.267s
Does anyone successfully unlock bootloader on this device?

Nope, I tried at HTCDev but failed. Same code...Will only take a few fastboot commands in Bootloader. I posted here a while ago about getting root and nobody seems to be developing anything for this phone. I am just waiting but am fine with it not being rooted or unlocked. Microsoft launcher gives it a fresh look but I seem to go back to sense 10 after a short period of time.

Me too.
It seems that bootloader is unlockable for now : . I bought this phone because this is the cheapest device which supports 3CA and probably QAM256 ($210 in Poland). OOTB supports VoWIFI on my operator Play Poland. To activate VoLTE and lock LTE Bands root/magisk are needed and so unlock bootloader.
What build number and Android security patch date do you have in your U12 life? My build number is 1.53.401.1 and 1 November 2018 android patch date.

I was hoping someone from here would crack it but nobody seems to be interested.
I bought mine from Taiwan, a HTC store for $245 in December. took 1 week to get it which I thought was fast. Some waited months to get the HTC U 12plus. Attached some screenshots. w/build number and Radio info.

February 1st.
Hi at all,
i don't have this device but i'm interested on it, considering the actual price around 230/240 euro. I want to know if there are any chances that htc will release android Pie. According to all the news that i read, HTC will not provide Android 9 to this device, and this is really a shame. Does anyone have any news?

I am not sure if they are going to release Android Pie or not for the HTC Life, a few months back they released a update for bugs, but is running Oreo 8.1.
I did hear in the Taiwanese HTC forum that it would receive the Pie update in the 3rd Qrt but will wait and see. Nobody has confirmed or denied it yet. NBD for me as I run Pie on my M8 and M9 but but my HTC U12 Life battery's life is outstanding. Heavy use daily brings my battery down too maybe 65%.
New Update:
Awesome, april security patch
