Verizon delayed to September. Should launched in February. Now that is a long wait

Distributors should represent the product a well as they should but from the posts I see here its nothing but horror stories - over promising and never keeping to words.
As far as OTA I know very well how it works and the monkeys at SIS and Brightstar should inform HTC that to pacify the situation let loose the upgrade

wow already page 43, anyways..after 6 days exactly, i have finally got my phone back from the service center, had to call them and ask if its ready and it was .. im a happy camper !

Regardless if SIS and Brightstar informs HTC to push their update schedule forward or not is not for us to judge. HTC takes a longer time to release their updates because they are always optimized perfectly for their devices. What's the point of quickly releasing 4.2.2 if it's gonna be buggy and slow like 4.2.2 on S4? No thank you, it's one of the big reasons why I don't like Samsung phones. They rush their firmware just so they can say "shipping with 4.2.2" but the main feature of Jelly Bean is Project Butter. JB update for S3 AND S4 does NOT implement PB at all. What's the point in releasing new phones with "updated" software that doesn't work?

Want to look at update history then just look at the HoX. Shipped with ICS, a little laggy. About 1-2 months slower than Samsung to release Jelly Bean, but it was so perfectly smooth the S3 looked like a toy. HTC won the Android war with just 1 update. 4.2.2 code from Google wasn't even finalized until around February this year, and Samsung just sumbat the code into their phone.

Are you saying that those that received the updates in China and Taiwan are guinea pigs?
They should definitely "OPTIMIZE" their quality control

Updated.. so far so good. Love the quick settings on the notification

Post some screenshot man.
Never have I been so jealous of Taiwan residents

mind to post picture of it?

Having dinner now. Thus far i find the most useful feature is the above and the AE lock on the camera

China and Taiwan units use different hardware, and probably easier for HTC to release them first then focus on the huge amount of international units. You want simultaneous updates on all devices then you can proceed to buy Apple devices. You ain't getting it on Android devices for a multitude of reasons. I'm sure you're proficient enough with Google to find these information yourself.

If i have unlocked bootloader and rooted my phone now, (didnt do S-Off)..

When i update to 4.2.2, do i lose my root. Will the phone do a hard reset?

Hey guys,after surveying around i find it is cheapest to buy One here https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/2689384 ..is it recommended to buy from here??

I don't mean to give the seller bad reputation. Did actually got anyone bought theirs from the seller?
All I see PMed.. etc
Unless got any buyer who give testimonials you should be extra careful. Do insist on COD and take
the necessary precautions if you would like to proceed.

I'm happy for you. I called them up after emailing them yesterday and today via their FB. They still unable to give me a status update. Told me they'll get an update in two to three days. Guess I gotta wait even longer. What sorcery did you use?

Yeaa. I rather pay extra abit for seller that have reputation. Haha.

Thanks guys for the response!any recommended seller??at htc klcc still 2290(hopefully can get cheaper?).other phone store i ask they didn't sell??dont know y.

doesn't kill if ur running on 4.1.2

got mind from sevenmobile, loving my set so far

Would it be ideal to turn on power saver mode when charging? Since power saver mode reduce the battery usage, therefore it should charge faster right? Will it have any negative effect on the phone by doing this?

Don't see why there could be any adverse effect.
