  • Can't update. I can't find the official Android 6 firmware anywhere either. Can anyone help me?

  • Can't update to marshmallow 6.0 any help.it give software error

  • First time I have purchased Android. And HTC e8 One dual sim is a Beautiful looks and marvellous mobile phone. It was a refurbished set. But it was great experience to use it.

  • is it showing in network selection area....GPRS CDMA 2G3G AND LTD option is there or not? bcz i cant able to switch in 4g or LTE.. can u help me...?

  • y it is showing on all websites that 4g (indian bands), but its not working in india even LTE...

  • Why not turn off wifi and bluetooth and error on HTC One?

  • Battery need to be replace. I am also faced this problem then I replace the battery now working fine and does turn off even at 1%.Otherwise my phone shutdown at 30% suddenly.

  • Superior performance..using it from 3 years...doesn't support 4G in India and now sometime it turn off directly at 30-40% battery. Not getting updated from HTC since one year.

  • Cant speak english very well. Have this phone abt 2 year, really good phone, smooth, fast, 4g. Same issue with the other fb sometimes crashing, cant upgrade android, 4g only on sim 1, but still better than my sony.

  • Bought it on release and it died last year december. RIP. A smooth and good looking phone. Miss it.

  • To date still one of the best comparable with a lot of new flagship phones. Its flawless smooth and fast provided u maintain it well. Go for it. Even better than some better known brands and no complains at all

  • Not spoted

  • I'm using e8 for the last one year. Bought a refurbished one. I'm totally satisfied with the phone. Let me clear one more thing I'm using 4g with no problem since I bought this phone. 4G works on sim 1.

  • If you are using cdma network then it's the best best mobile phone, if you use 4g mean it's waste of money. I'm using it since 2years, still working in good condition and I want to sell it now because there's no cdma network,and this phone doesn't support 4g LTE.

  • Well i can say its the best phone ever. I have been using it for more than 3years now. :D No battery issues or for that matter any issues yet. Yes when i bought a new one i had colour screen issue with in 6months, but i asked for a replacement phone and got one :) and its been running and doing well for past 3yrs. So yes i would recommend it. See to it that you completely discharge the battery everytime you charge.

  • Advise me i buy htc e8 or not

  • Advise me i buy htc e8 or not

  • I have two inquirers *i have received preparing update to upgrade to android 6 but this software update didn't complete always and go to black screen, please advice? * i see some comments says there is slow motion on E8 camera is that true ?

  • Search the Google for viperone5.0.2 Rom it's the best and stable marshmallow 6.0 Tom for HTC e8

  • I'm surprised by some comments talkin about issues on videos or FB. After 2,5 years it's working perfectly and I see no issues. I'm looking at the coming phones and still don't know which one to get to replace it. A friend adviced me HTC when I bought it, I know why now.

  • Most of India HTC e8 versions designed to work with cdma a ND GSM. M8SD e8 will not work on 4g network, m8sw or other versions which were outside purchase will be working with4g. You can find your version on box.

  • That's strange. I have the e8 dual Sim for 2,5 years and I have no issues like that. I just love it. Looking at the HTC 10 and hoping for a dual Sim.

  • Mine too. FB always crashing...

  • I could hardly watch video in my HTC One E8 phone especially in Facebook posts. Many times, Facebook app is not responding.

  • Why not HTC One E8 is 4G

  • Yeah, HTC has given list of devices which will receive nougat and HTC one e8 nor m8 are on the list.

  • Are u sure not recive android 7 ?

  • Never

  • When come android 7.0 for this phone ?

  • Look at bottom back side of ur phone .. Or see phone model by downloading hardware info app

  • how to know M8Sw version of htc one e8.

  • U got it right bro

  • Im using M8Sw version of htc one e8. Model id : 0PAJ200 Dual sim, GSM(sim1 only 4g) + GSM. May be the m8sd version is 4g locked(in india).

  • I am not recive yet the update android 6, anyone can tell me why. Thanks

  • Which variant of htc one e8 are you using,

  • No HTC One E8 (m8sd) does not support 4g in India Ur phone must be m8sn or op

  • It does work.. im using jio 4g in kerala running android 6.0.1 Software number 3.07.425.1

  • Im using htc one e8 (white) for the last 10 months. Awesone phone, stylish design, handy.. its worth for the money paid. 13mp Camera is good, but grainy in low light conditions.. 1080 recording.. slow motion video.. Full HD display.. LCD3 Screen clarity is superb with 441ppi. Good Performance.. no lags. Dual sim.. Android 6.0. Getting battery life for 1-2 day for normal use (under battery saver). And most importantly i want to say HTC ONE E8 SUPPORT 4G in india(tested JIO in kerala). Bought this from UAE. I dont know y u guys dont getting 4g. Cons : 1. heating issue, if played games... and drains battery easily.. Avoid buying this if u r a hardcore gamer. 2. Little difficult to read screen under heavy sunlight. Overall im satisfied 9/10.

  • i ve been using this phone for more than one year .very happy and reasonable phone.All specifications as they ve said for.Not everyone can afford iphone. THIS IS a best choice for those who wish not to buy apple or samsung phones

  • Is it single sim or duo?

  • I have htc one e8, before purchasing they told that 4G will support after a software update which will be provided later, but now they r refusing to provide software and saying sorry for wrong information which was given to me, I wasted my money.

  • I have been using this phone more than two and half years.Therefore I can assure you this phone one of the best phones produced by HTC.The battery is still holding upto two days.No lagging,Excellent ppi,Excellent sound quality,More than anything most handsome phone thay I have seen ever.Better than iPhone....What else you want?

  • For your kind information, this phone does not support 4G in india

  • Whay my lock screen when i changing theme is black photo ?pls help

  • I am using this phone, Very good phone, support 4G and 3G

  • agree with you. Sure you should go ahead.

  • I am going to file a complaint in consumer court after taking all the print out of these reviews from gsmarena, so post your comments regarding 4G not supported on this device, this comments will help me to make the case more stronger.

  • Only one slot sim is working 4g or 3g slot sim two not working 4g or 3g

  • 4G doesn't work in this phone, htc has locked it to receive 4G signal, htc never going to unlock it, #htccheater

  • You must be facing this crap:

  • The phone supports 4G. Stupid HTC has software locked 4G in India and is never gonna unlock it via a firmware update. They have all the time and tide to unlock it in China and also for their flagship of the same year, M8. They give preference only to their flagships. I have vowed to never buy HTC phones again in my life. Sold this piece of crap and bought a OnePlus 3 and I have never been happier with any phone than OP3.

  • My htc one e8 dual is not suport jio 4G in u.p..,but jio4G suport than I m in delhi . I take sim firozabad up. Please tell me .....

  • Sick phone...My 32,000 Rs. gone down the drain..And guess not ..Unlike how this sites and many others claim like HTC,- No 4G !

  • mobile data not supporting

  • Lets do it...

  • Never

  • Is HTC one E8 support Jio LTE sim

  • The problem is not only that SIM2 doesn't support 3G or 4G, the problem is that u can not switch 3G/4G support between 2 SIM by software, u should switch your SIMs manually, this is very disappointing phone

  • Htc is never going to make or change the firmware which will support 4G, we have two options either fight with htc or change your phone,

  • I think we should highlight this issue in all social web sites. I am thinking of complaining to the Advertising Standards Council of India.

  • Let's make #htccheater on twitter..tagging HTC I wonder if we could do anything else Problem is that they themselves are messed up with SIM 1 issue on m8SD Sim 1 does support 4g but lock to China unicom 4g (so no 4g outside China) If they gives us radio update then sim 1 will work on 4g but will not connect to 2g/3g..(as it doesn't work outside India) Only one solution I guess is that they have to create new RUU #HTC LAZY will not do it for 2 years old phone

  • Deepak & Ckkhatri HTC is taking us for a ride. I bought this for 34000 bucks last year, april. Many sites including gsmarena mention specific 4g bands for the Indian model. Even the EMIE check mentions 4g bands for my devce. The HTC website vaguely mentions that some 'countries' do not have 4g, without specifically saying that the device does not have 4g. On contacting support they dismissed the specs mentioned on the various sites as third party sites & disclaimed any responsibility for the same. They do not mind the advertisement that they get from all these sites but do not want to take responsibility for what is mentioned there. Nor do they bother to correct the information. After a few mails they stopped responding. Is there any way we can make them accountable?

  • Last week I bought this from from UAE. (7.12.2016). I'm satisfied with only design & out look & front speakers. GPS was not working properly. When I open the Maps it was forever trying to find my location. But never find. And another problem Android update issues. It always shows update available for first time I'm happy with it.after they I'm Fed up.. Because after downloading when trying to install it shows some error. This s my first HTC mobile. I'm very disappointed with this shit...

  • Done. You have my support.

  • I will support you, if there any help by my side ask me, my email [email protected]

  • A 4G SIM support?!!!!!

  • Deepak, Definately, HTC is cheating on us even i have visited HTC's website for the full specification for 4G LTE support and there it was clearly mentioned that it does support 4G LTE FDD 1,3 bands. I am going to file a complaint in consumer court for the same, if we all get united and file the complaint against HTC they will have to provide a suitable solution.

  • i am having a problem in my htc one e8. there is no option of hotspot and it is not taking any update.

  • Install your 4G sim on sim slot 1

  • Use CyanogenMod

  • But it's different on hardware level I guess Changing it cause boot loop If u had done it can u provide with proper steps

  • for everyone who wants 4g on E8SD cdma+gsm maybe u change mid and cid(with S-off) to gsm+gsm one and flash the RUU+OTA after that maybe you can enable 4g

  • This mobile is unbelievably good, it is fast, good battery life, good boom sound front stereo speakers, fabulous earphone sound, crispy display and camera is good(in good lighting), 4G support ( i dont know why others dont have) updated to Marshmallow 6.0.1 . THB, there is nothing bad I can say in this mobile considering what year it was released.

  • Bros don't buy it because this phone has microphone problems as well as only SIM1 supports 3g or 4g but the other SIM slot only supports 2g.I am very upset losing my 18000 bdt money buying such a rubbish phone using immediately first time after buying.don't suffer buying it.

  • Never buy htc mobile.4G does not works on it.i hav contacted to cust care at that time they told that 4G wl work on this set.it is a cheater company.

  • Pls suggest me any custom rom for my e8 single sim (m8sx)

  • A user uploaded a video on the GPS issue on E8. Here's the link: If you are facing the same GPS issue, I can bet that there's no way you can resolve it and HTC is least bothered. This is the reason, I sold my E8 and bought an OP3.

  • I love this mobile

  • GPS is not working. OFFLINE MAPS navigation is not possible with this handset. anyone have idea to solve the issue.

  • 8 to 10 hours heavy use

  • Hello friend this phone only 1 sim slot only 3g and 4g Second sim slot not support 4g and 3g only support 2g

  • I have used HTC One e8. My problem is the display brightness is very low on automatic setting compared with one m7. Can any one also facing this issue. What is the cause please told me.

  • i've recently bought this one , after reading many reviews and based on my past experience , flash it to marshamallow + sense 8 using custom rom. battery life up to 16 hour on daily used, max to 10 hours on heavy used, with remaining 20% ( i set 20% automaticly on extreme powersave so thats my limit ) . overall very handsome phone ( just by it looks guys , mine carbon colour ) good perfomance ,2 GB its no problems ,but for better ..you should uninstall facebook apps , its drains ur memory awesome sound and speaker output decent camera ( but with manual mode u can take great picture ) conclusions ... stick to this phone until ... HTC made HTC 10 dual sim i guess .. er else ,.. xaxaxa

  • okkkk not bad

  • Hey guys,can this phone shoot 4k videos and take raw photos with apps from playstore or with rooting ? Any chance for this ?

  • Hello everyone, Plz tell me about HTC ONE E8 battery timing....?????

  • I bought HTC ONE e8 from RELIANCE eshop last year..It was advertised and sold as a 4g enabled phone...Today no 4g sim works on it...It is an OUT AND OUT FRAUD BY HTC AND RELIANCE COM

  • Htc is cheating with us, in indian portal they were mentioned that it supports 4G in india but now it is removed. Before purchasing I also talked to htc customer care and they told me it is a 4G handset and it will work when 4G will available, now now they are resufusing to accept that and saying 4G will not work. Htc is a great cheater company, htc has locked the 4G single and that can be unlocked to receive 4G signal becoz they want to sell their other handsets. Waste of 36000 money, never prefer anyone to buy htc.

  • dunno why indonesian version not support 4g, what a waste money, htc manipulate us, in the www.htc.co.id its clearly specific for indonesian they was written that suport 4g, now they changed it to "selected country",... please htc web master, you using .co.id which mean its spesific for indonesian, yeahhh they fool us,..

  • what is your exact model? is it m8sd dual sim with cdma support, and what band is there for 4G access by your network provider.

  • Using this Phone in Pakistan. 4G, OS 6.0.1, Everything is Perfect.

  • mine is also not working rubbish i have spent 30000 on this lol

  • How can we use jio sim in HTC e8 plz reply me

  • is htc one e8 dual sim 4g or not?

  • How

  • Sorry I Have a question C4 Dual or HTC One E8 ? they are same at the price in my country but i really dont know which is better they are very similar to each other but with little differences like C4 has a little better camera (based on gsmarena photo comparison) and as it looks has more powerful CPU but in comparison video clip that i saw Htc was faster ! maybe its because snapdragon Htc has Quick Charge and more battery endurance C4 is 0.5 inch bigger Htc has boomsound which is perfect Htc released android 6.0 update six months before Sony so im really confused ! please help ! thank you !

  • pls does ds done HTC One E8 has a hotspot connection at all...I cant find it on my HTC One E8. pls helps

  • HTC is fake and made fool out of people... feeling like wasted 36000rs ... specification states LTE Support and now customer-care says LTE is only valid in few selected countries.... for future buy HTC is a BIG NO and wont ever recommend anyone else as well.

  • Would it recieve 4G LTE network in the middle east region? Because it says here the 4G is locked to India and Hongkong.

  • where, your city name?

  • It's lock by HTC bro...even you select LTE in *#*#4636#*#* you are locked to CDMA ... Buy new phone ...

  • i am use htc e8 already use jio LTE

  • I did the same but no 4G network appear. I tried with all possibilities.Its worst that HTC one e8 not supporting 4G/PRE network while in specification they said it's LTE supported.

  • It has light sensor?

  • Can this phone and the htc desire eye can shoot 4k videos with 3rd party apps from playstore cause i am thinking to buy one of these phones.Thank you !

  • Really bro rocking performance of htc e8 while never be down even compare with other phone but we want 4g in future do to do

  • Hi !!!! I have HTC E8 , marshmallow 6.0.1, sense 7.0, but "Motion Launch" doesn't works ... ((( also doesn't works the Motion Gestures. (Flip to Mute, Pick Up to Lower Volume) what to do ??? thanks...

  • Hi !!!! I have HTC E8 , marshmallow 6.0.1, sense 7.0, but "Motion Launch" don't working ... ((( what to do ??? thanks...

  • I can not upgrade my phone OS v4.4.2 to any upgrade version. if anybody know pls speak something about it.

  • First you need to install HTC phone.apk v8.xx from apk mirror then restart ...(only one sim works ) I got 4g networks only for 1st time I did this ..

  • Doesn't works After selecting to LTE, still I can't see LTE option where UMTS, GSM, GLOBAL options are

  • Did u manually update to 6, or got update from HTC..

  • I also thought same but it's not It's 4g phone locked by HTC Sometimes selecting GSM/WCDMA/LTE it gives 4g network at manual search for my one E8 (m8SD) (CDMA/GSM+GSM) I posted pic on xda ..(jio on m8SD in Q/A section )

  • HTC e8 m8SD variant will not work for 4g, some people telling 4g using, but it may be in another variant m8sw which supports only dual GSM type, but m8sd designed for cdma/GSM+GSM, up-to 3g it will work,best choice for cdma users,it supports up-to evdo rev.b also.so don't get confused about4g support, it will not support 4g, after somany times fighting with HTC I came to this conclusion, so sell your phone for cdma users, it's better choice for them, if you want to buy a 4g support phone then go for leemax2 or one plus3,other brand phones again limited for some bands in 4g,but in these 2brands there is no limitations in bands, so buy these Lee,and oneplus3

  • It is 4g supported I even got jio in mobile network manual search only once Problem is HTC has locked access to 4g .. Because they want to sell new phone If u don't believe me Try this .. In phone dial type *#*#4636#*#* Phone information and select LTE .. Now go to settings >mobile data >sim 1 network You will notice phone is lock to CDMA (GSM settings greyed out ,so no manual search ) But we have selected to LTE that is GSM . So if u can unlock this u will enjoy 4g

  • In some cities of India, Jio SIM is working with HTC One E8 Dual Sim, becoz Jio has started working on 1800Mhz, and our phone supports that, wait for the time, Reliance Jio is going to start 4G in all of the cities on 1800 Mhz, 2100 Mhz, our phone will surely work,

However, my phone still can't detect my USB OTG. I don't understand why HTC would remove this feature for me. Anyone having the same problem for single sim HTC E8?

  • Try hard resetting it via the recovery. Also before you do so make sure you wipe the cache. here's the link to do it.

  • I'm facing problem with HTC ONE E8 Dual Sim Indian Version. And I said : I've observed similar problem with HTC ONE M8 EYE. At least read properly before teaching manners to others.

  • I have this for over a year,i should say its the best phone i have ever had in my pocket! the size is great,easy for everyday usage.camera is not the best possible in this price,outdoor photos in good light conditions are great,but there is an overall darkness in photos.i will give 8 of 10 to camera.battery life gets 9 of 10,and the display is 9.you wont see any lag on this phone and the audio quality is brilliant!!!!

  • This is a great phone. After Marsh update, I feel this phone is the best it can be - lots of nice features. Best sound quality for music and Vids; and super quick response. Everything is perfect. If you have issues then reset phone after update and then disable any apps you don't need. This a very good phone for normal use, now.

  • then there is an marshmallow update available...

  • Dual Sim - India

  • is your E8 a dual sim one...?

  • if yours is a 4G (E8 Sprint) device only lollipop is available at the moment

  • Hii Guys, After updating phone to marshmallow I'm facing few problems. I did factory reset phone several time but problem is still there, I have observed similar problem on HTC ONE M8 Eye after MM update. My problem is as follows : Whenever i switch off my phone and restart it after some time, After HTC Logo, window come saying Android is updating, Optimising apps 107, 160, 80 etc, Different number each time. But after completing the optimising, again phone restarts. Again HTC logo and Android is updating. This keeps on happening in loop, till phones battery dies. After phone is completely discharge i charge it 5% or so and factory reset it with volume down and power key button. I have to factory reset phone every time I switch of my Phone. So practically I Just can't switch off my phone to avoid the restart loop and factory reset. Please help. Also when I ccess quick toggles from lock screen, I just can't close that back until I unlock the phone.

  • hello all, I updated my E8 to lollipop from Kit Kat yesterday. and now when i try to update it for marshmallow, phone says, system is up to date, no updates found. how did you guys update to marshmallow? thanks in advance

  • my e8 keeps searching for updates. nothing happens.... pls help

  • htc m8 was updated by the company for 4g but not for htc one e8 dual sim.am i correct gsm arena people i bought htc one e8 dual sim after thoroghly reading your website. but htc website for htc one e8 dual sim says only 2gand 3g

  • If there is no 4g then why on my box is written 4g? Send i would like to ask how can i distinguish between the clone of E8 with original as i m doubt ful on mine... Any one help pls...thanks

  • is there any news regarding 4G OTA update,

  • Nope

  • Sir pls can i know is 4g option available in htc ons e8

  • Guys I am unable to use airtel 3g as this only shows 2g in sim1,android M. However I can use 3g with reliance. My airtel sim works perfect in other mobile. Please also use custom Rom if want something more

  • How much time does it take to fully charge the battery? .. for me it takes 2 and half hours

  • Anyone seeing issue with GPS? While using maps, the phone takes about 7-10 mins to receive the GPS signal. Message disgusted is "Waiting for GPS..."

  • Marshmallow has all the features of lollipop plus some more enhancements to its feature set. Yes, Marshmallow also improves the battery life. I'd suggest you to backup all your data, update the phone to Marshmallow and then perform a factory reset from the recovery and from the phone's settings. You can also wipe the cache partition and then reboot the phone.

  • Oh and will any features from lollipop be deleted when i update?

  • Im still pondering in whether i should update to marshmallow. The major issue i have with lollipop is the battery life. Does marshmallow prolong battery life better than lollipop?

  • first select Help in your app drawer and select hardware misbehaving now select hardware diagnostics find vibration test now start and stop few times the test. if its not working while the test is running slap on back (left) side of the phone . it worked for me but make sure when you slap the vibration motor has to get a shock

  • Issue with GPS after the update. This happens when you are using 3G, because when you are connected to your WiFi network, the location is updated from the WiFi connectivity. The issue is that it takes about 5-10 mins for the phone to correctly point to the current location. It keeps displaying "Searching GPS..." It worked absolutely fine in 5.0, wonder what kind of internal testing and beta testing was done!

  • "Vibration feedback for calls" is not working at all, has any got the solution, kindly share the solution.

  • Go to setting than more than mobile network sharing than enable Wi-Fi hotspot,hope this helps.

  • Go to setting

  • I have been trying to locate where the hotspot is but have not come across it till now. Please can anyone help

  • Yes It has received marshmallow,marshmallow provide a high level of customisation to your device but performance wise kitkat is best.your preference lies down here so if you want to customise every expect of your device than go for marshmallow and if you prefer performance more than stay with kitkat.

  • I still have android 4.4.2. Has this phone already got the marshmallow update? And is it worth updating? Please do reply. Ty

  • Gestures not working for me from the last few days. Reboot temporarily fixes the problem.

  • Hai guys , I updated my e8 to 6.0.2 after that my gestures are not working. Does anybody have the problem¿

  • Thanks!

  • App*

  • You can use image editor to add filter or download third party app like camera360 or bestme selfie camera ap.

  • Amongst all the smartphones I've used, this phone has the best battery backup.doesn't heat too

  • But are they copletely gone or can i modify pictures like this afterwards? So frustrated...

  • You have to factory reset and clear you phone cache once you update. This will ensure the best performance. Many people don't do this and keep complaining. I used the phone briefly after the update before factory resetting, it was very laggy.

  • Quick toggles needs to be pushed back. It doesn't go back on its own. Ringtone and notification sound are one in MM. This is a core OS feature. Nothing to do with HTC's customization. Battery has improved a lot. 35 mins more is definitely on the lesser side. I'm getting way more than that. Overnight, it drops by just 2-3%. In lollipop, it would drop 10-15% overnight and battery wouldn't even last half a day.

  • Whenever I use YouTube, I turn on power-saver mode. In power-saver mode, I get 5 hours onscreen time. And overnight battery discharge in power-saver mode is 2%.

  • Only battery improvement that also max 30-45 minutes. Network selection is worst. Opening apps in setting tray tooks long time. After Accessing quick toggles in lock screen u can't close that. They removed separate volume option for ring tones and notification tone. Only for battery u can update but that also not much u can't see difference in daily usage

  • Nope. No 4G support on this phone in India.

  • Have you read what the issue is exactly? The phone does vibrate when a call is received. The issue is while making calls. This feature enabled the phone to vibrate once the called party answers the call. This worked perfectly on my One X+ (both on sense 4+ ans sense 5). I have a test device as well which is part of the preview program. It has the same sense skin (sense 7) and it does vibrate when the called party answers the call. It isn't an issue with one device. I had my E8 replaced after 6 months by HTC since it had some motherboard issue. In both the devices, I've noticed the phone doesn't vibrate in such situations. This is a day one issue and hasn't been resolved even with the MM update. Looks like beta testing wasn't done properly. :P

  • Huh? Lollipop was the worst ever OS on this phone. KitKat was by far the best and had the best performance and battery backup. Lollipop was given with the old sense skin which made it all the more horrible. The M update has improved performance greatly which includes battery backup.

  • HTC one M8/htc one E8/htc one M8(eye)/S galaxy s5 ,Which phone is better?

  • No vibration for calls.

  • Please don't update. Lollipop is better than this android M

  • will htc e8 support reliance jio's cdma sim for fast internet speed

  • I suppose live filters have been removed in marshmallow upgrade.

  • Will htc release update for 4g nd LTR. I have port my number in reliance cdma. What will b net speed.

  • Can you help me with the camera options? Used to have different kind of effects to use while taking pictures but i can't find them anymore! Please help :D (effects like black&white,country,etc) There's so many questions here,i couldn't find the answer to my question in earlier posts...

  • People with vibration issue make sure that your power saver mode is turned off because vibration feedback gets turned off in power saver.if this didn't work than go to service center because there is no vibration feedback issue in HTC One e8,it works perfectly.

  • Don't worry, you try to download again and again, I advise you to download in night time,traffic will be low at that time, it happened to me also, but I tried 3 times , then I got

  • hello guys i have htc one e8 and when i try to update my phonen via OTA it shows that downloaded update is corrupted...can anyone help with that

  • "Vibration feedback for calls" This hasn't been working since KitKat days. The MM update did not fix it either.

  • Please my HTC one e8 is still on kitkate Any one have the marshmallow download link. So that I can upgrade it with pc

  • What vibration issues??

  • I miss that HTC previously had separate volume control for notifications n for ringer(calls). Miss it! Even for HTC file manager doesn't show OTG.

  • The HTC file manager doesn't show OTG..🙁

  • What's with this vibration feedback issue? Do you guys have it? How to resolve it? Anybody....

  • @Leo....but they are going to use 800 band for 4g. Still it'll not support?

  • My dot view case is not working after the update for Android 6.0 . It works perfectly when i receive a call but doesn't show the time or battery when i double tap on it.

  • hello my friends.. i update my htc one e8 dual to android 6 , after this ,when i restart or shut down my phone , its restart frequent in android is upgrading and its no turn on ...i done factory reset from recovery but again have this problem....what is solution???????????? please help....

  • If you have the Indian model, then you can't use a 4G network. There's no 4G support for the Indian variant.

  • but they are going to use 800 band for 4g. Still it'll not support?

  • Any one can help me? Rim cdma upgrading to LTE,will this work in my HTC e8? Or I have to purchase another mobile?

  • OTG works without a problem for me. Which app are you using to access your USB contents?

  • OTg worked for me!

  • After update 6.0.1 its not support otg plz help me

  • The hardware supports 4G. All they need to do is to release a firmware update that will unlock 4G from the software side. But unfortunately, this doesn't seem to be the case. They do not want to do so! :(

  • The Marshmallow update has been live since the early hours of April 20, 2016.

  • Excuse me. 4G was available way before E8 was launched. In fact the hardware is mostly the same for E8, M8 and M8 Eye. M8 was released 4 months before E8 and HTC released a firmware update to enable 4G support on M8. So when this can happen for M8, why not for E8? A 35k phone without 4G support!

  • UHS-II class 3 isn't even available. I purchased a UHS-I class 3 from Amazon for 1300/- and the error still showed up when I tried to format as internal storage. But so far, I haven't seen any issues wrt the speed of accessing anything from the SD card :)

  • HTC one e8 is 3G WCDMA n 2G mobile. No 4G Cause it was launched before 4G technology.

  • Marshmallow update for India It's seeding Any thoughts or review?

  • Tq bro it finally worked out

  • HTC Customer care confirmed that HTC One E8 is not supporting 4G, check the chat screenshots

  • Since the marshmallows update the battery drains so quick.which used last for day and half. Awaiting for patch from htc

  • Same problem...any solution

  • does htc one e8 dual sim got 4g. it is not mentioned in official website and company fellows also say no 4g.it is only 3g phone.

  • Hey guys is the voice recognition for "ok google" working from any screen after the marshmallow update? Mine is working sometime and is failing most of the time.

  • The best solution is that in the folders which you don't want to see in Gallery like whatsapp folders etc . Go in that folder either by phone's explorer or from PC and create file as following then it will not show in Gallery. file required to create without quotes ("):- ".nomedia" Hop it will save you ton of trouble you are having.

  • My sim is not activated yet. I am waiting for it. for Postpaid you do not need to do any recharge. Recharge is only required for Prepaid and that recharge itself is called 4G migration recharge. For prepaid Reliance store people should do Migration recharge on your number and then give you sim. Sim cost is Rs. 25. Once 4G started I will share feedback.

  • Have problem with the 110 mb interim update, after I dl it, the phone reboots to a page with black background and says that the update was met with errors, any one knows what I should do?

  • My phone's vibrate isnt working since the update..anybody else experiencing this problem?? And any solution for this problem??

  • Is*

  • This the your particular device issue not marshmallow problem or sense 7.

  • So I found this new problem. The volume for calls and notifications would automatically drop to the 2nd lowest level although I always keep it at the max. Came across this a couple of times. Don't know what's really going on.

  • Have you started using 4G? What value recharge did you make? I have postpaid.. I'm clueless. The guys at customer care also clueless about the msg I got. Lol.

  • I'm able to get on and average 150 minutes of SOT in whole day. EvDO network.. No WiFi.

  • I have had factory reseted my phone after the update so that I can take full advantage of the update and get rid of the memory leak in Lollipop and majorly I wanted to integrate my external memory card into internal. But, for me Battery life is poor, I am going to try what "Dixitakarsh" suggested that is to drain the battery full to 0% then fully charge it... Lets see what happens next. keeping fingers crossed!

  • Yeah, I did try that from the little preview box on the camera app, what it does is, it also hides all those folders which I want to view in my Gallery app! All I want is a way to preview my DCIM folder from my Camera app via that little preview box and want to also access all my albums via my gallery app like it should happen and used to happen till I had Lollipop. Its very annoying to see Whatsapp and other downloaded images from the camera preview box from the camera app rather than showing what pictures I have actually clicked! I hope i am making sense! Basically its throwing me the Timeline instead of DCIM folder!

  • I got sms like this. Its time to upgrade! Dear valued Customer, we have dispatched your 4G smart SIM.Dial 1299 to upgrade & experience the BEST network.T&C RCOM That's why I'm not sure what to do. To go to gallery n buy sim or wait.

  • Just went to Reliance Communications store and buy it at Rs. 25 each .. For prepaid connection you need to make some recharge of 93 or 95 before you start process of migration ... That recharge is called 4G migration recharge.

  • Doze only works when you keep your phone inactive on a flat surface(inactive means really inactive or super inactive because even if phone is in pocket or somehow you by mistake move the device the doze won't work).

  • Hiding folders did my job by showing only what matters to me(am using HTC One m8 and m9).

  • Hide folder which you don't want to see from gallery.

  • I hope it works for you.

  • Hi guys! I found another annoying feature in the camera! when u click a picture and then want to go preview it. In the preview it show all kind of unwanted pics even from Whatsapp. Earlier in lollipop, it used to only show the pictures which were taken by the camera! And I have always seen that with every other phone! Was htc developers hit by stones on their head while they were working on MM update? Any idea guys how to remove the unwanted albums and only be able to view the DCIM album? I tried to edit the 'Show/hide albums' but it removes everything from my Gallery app then! require some solution or a htc update fix for this!!

  • Yeah, I factory reseted my phone, thinking to clear every thing up and start using afresh! but I really haven't seen any improvement in battery life, instead saw a decrease in battery backup, don't know yet doze is working for me or not! Thanks buddy, will try ur method of discharging till 0% and then charging it full in one go... Cheers!

  • Yeah! officially Google had said any Class 10 card will do, even motorola websites say the same! but it seem Htc is extra-ordinary! btw, hope it works out for u, Man!

  • You have to try several times, keep on trying... finally it will accept it! try restarting your device and try 2 or 3 time after that... it will eventually allow you! this worked for me

  • Halo Every one I am using HTC One e8 on Android 6.0 ...I am unable to combine both internal and external storage (adoptable storage). I am using SanDisk 64 gb class 10 SD card

  • How did you get sim? Did they send on your home address? I got a sms saying my sim is dispatched. I bought Galaxy s7 edge. 😊

  • The phone is completely dead it is just heating when putting in charging. it is neither going in fast-boot nor in Hboot and also no orange lite of charging appearing up. Mobile repairing shops are saying motherboard is dead power IC is short. :( But I got RCOM 4G Sims today so will be migrating to Iphone asap sim activates... Till then Mi5 rocks 10 times better then this HTC ONE E8. MI5 is seriously fast then HTC E8 Kitkat may be this phone was about to dying as it was very very slow.

  • Am not akd100(Am not even supposed to use his account),I know li-ion battery are smart and they remember when they reach 100%,the old technology used forget when they have reached 100% causing over charge(killing battery) or even explosion(rare case).and discharging your device to 0% is always healthy and will remain(you are wrong at what you said),it will never ever make your battery suffer from any issue.I sounded to promote old sayings but they work sometimes due to which I suggested him.Akd100 is not the one replying so don't quate him(this is possible that you didn't read my comment earlier that's why am again writing).

  • Hey...it happened in my case too when it upgraded to lollipop.... I just replaced the stock recovery to TWRP ... JUST DO IT ,,,and it will charge only WHEN MOBILE SWITCHED OFF...

  • Lol. New htc one e8 costs less than that.

  • M from India only N yeah I downloaded that update which prepare my htc e8 for MM... N yea after downloading the update it verifies it n then the error came saying it is corrupted

  • In my case motherboard is dead and HTC service centre quoted 17500 for motherboard replacement which is pointless. Looks like power IC gone.. as phone is heating if I put it on charge and no charging led coming up on it.

  • Don't do it at all as this suggestions is completely crap. Modern lithium ion batteries runs on cycles. A complete cycle count when battery reaches from 0-100% so how much you charge before it reaches 100% it will not count cycle. Having 0% charge in battery can be fatal to it as in any case if you tried to start phone on 0% and if voltages dips low in that case it may get dead as it will stop taking charge. Just charge your phone normally if any cycle issue is there it should learn and get better in some days of usage. Suggestion to do 0-100% of battery is totally crap for L-ion batteries that applied in old days with NI-MH batteries which had memory effect L-Ion batteries do not have Memory effect issue. Nothing personal with you Dixit Akarsh or akd100, but whoever you are why you are keep giving crap suggestions ( I saw so many of them though without doing a Google on them first) to everyone which are proven wrong everywhere and pretend to be techie ... while I feel that you are not a true one.

  • If Factory reset doesn't works than discharge your device until 0% and than turn off your phone and put it on charging,don't turn on your phone before it reaches 100%.the logic behind this is that modern battery have a smart charge feature so if you charge your phone when it is showing 18%(for example) than the battery will take 82% bettery as charged and rest will be seen as uncharged(this is for making you understand in a easy way),so when you discharge your battery to 0% and than charge,this results in the charging of each part of your battery giving a healthy life.this should be done in a month or 2.

  • Try factory reset

  • Looks like the phone is expecting a UHS-II class 3, but strangely these memory cards are not available yet. A UHS-I class 3 should in fact suffice, not sure what exactly HTC is looking for. I'll find out and post here. UHS-I class 1 is similar to class 10.

  • That's strange. Battery life on lollipop was horrible. The performance of the phone was great on KitKat. Even the battery lasted more than a day. Lollipop ruined it, but Marshmallow brought back life to the battery. Did you factory reset after the update? If you haven't, you might see lag as well as poor battery life. Try factory resetting your phone.

  • Excellent phone, very fast and stable

  • I recommend u first factory reset ur device. N then without installing any application on it u direct download the mm software. This will work

  • I tried it several time with that same message before it accepted mine...! I have Strontium 64GB XC-1 UHS 1 type card with 3 written inside U and also at the back of packet it says Class 10!

  • Hi guys.... I read many people have said that their battery life has increased or become better, but I feel, on my device the battery life has become aweful! earlier, I could go on with single charge for 2 days. But now I have noticed that the charge does not last more than 14 hours... it dead drops to 13%-12% from 100% in 14 hours....

  • Akd100(who's 5th account is this) isn't back yet.he is still with Android authority team and will be hopefully back in 4days.am one of the member of his team so welcome.

  • Some questions:- 1.where you from? 2.you have installed the update which prepares for marshmallow? 3.can you share the screenshot of the problem at imgur.com.

  • I downloaded update 4 times bt its geting corrupted again and again Any solution for this Thank you for help

  • This isn't a problem with only my device.have you returned back from UK?

  • Thanks,am happy that this isn't q

  • manpreet, did the data was erased after update like contacts,apps,settings etc. or it remained as it was before update

  • Aftar update mm , battary rock ,

  • After unplugging phone from charge yesterday in 6 Hours I was watching stream on twitch. Connected to WiFi. 53% battery drained in 5 Hours screen on time. That was amazing most back up I have ever got.

  • Vibration feedback for calls doesn't work even after the update. I thought they'd fix this in the update, but haven't :(

  • Yes everything will be erased.but You can backup your contacts in sim card or just go to settings and do google backup,it will save ur messages,contact and the apps you were using will automatically get downloaded again after restoring backup after factory reset or you can download a app that can make your apps apk file and save it on ur removable storage or connect your device to computer and than save everything which matters you on your computer(you can use clean master for making apk backup).

  • Finally my phone Htc One E8_dual sim India is being updated to Marshmallow Officially.... Software Update 3.06.720.2(1.09 gb)

  • And also the Whatsapp chat backup....

  • But, after factory reset all the downloaded apps, msgs, contacts and settings will be gone. Right?

  • Hi all , I want to know whether all my current data i.e. contacts, messages, apps and their settings will remain as they are now after the marshmellow update for HTC One E8. Please suggest.

  • Yes there is a major difference in audio .... via headphones and speakers both.. they have improved it a lot. improvement is too much, even HTC stock in-ears (which are awesome) cant handle full volume and bass. its just too good. the update was worth the wait. :) to get max from your headphone output try using Sony Headphones.... they handle High Output well

  • The test model which I tested also used to hang for a second in the use of it for 1-2 weeks(I won't even say it as a second),not a big issue for sure but it is Samsung and everyone knows that it is known for lagging interference.your device Isn't defected at all,you will have to compromise on performance if you are using Samsung(this isn't told in any review because we are not supposed to say this).galaxy s7 is a great phone and leaving those little lags it does the work done pretty quick.

  • Normally my galaxy s7 works great but sometimes it hangs(not like totally stopping my work but just for a second) and I don't think that one of the best phone is supposed to hang for even a second.i want to ask that if this is the problem of this phone or I had received a defected device?thanks for your time.

  • Thanks for the clarification.

  • does anyone notice difference in audio after update ?

  • Yes live filters have been removed.

  • You will remain on the same Android version which you were running on before factory reset.

  • You will loose the data on your internal storage so make sure to make a backup.you can backup through 2 ways that is manual backup(which I do) or use an app for backup such as HTC backup(which has got discontinued so you can use Google backup in the setting).to do manual backup connect to your computer through USB and copy all the important data from mobile internal to SD card or PC.to backup contact transfer them to sim card or google back will save them.

  • I was guessing right,after your comment I thought you misunderstood the format SD card storage feature.it won't increase your internal storage it will just replace it with SD card for example if you format 16 GB card than you will have only 16 GB not 32GB.many peeps have formatted there card thinking that they will get increased storage,you internal storage will still exist but it won't be accessible.

  • Yes. It's suggested to factory reset. It was laggy for made as well post the update, but once I factory reset, the phone has been performing smooth. You will definitely lose all your data including apps.

  • If you have your contacts stored in your phone memory, then yes, you'll lose them. It's always advisable to save your contacts as a Google contact. All contacts will be stored in Google cloud and you'll never lose them. Regarding data, it's good to store your pictures and videos in the cloud. Try backing them up to Google photos which gives you unlimited storage if you backup with high resolution instead of original.

  • I have 64Gb class 10 SD card i did format as internal, but when i moved my data it moved in to internal storage so mobile storage became full what it is useful to us i didn't understand.

  • Guys...I think the filters which we had in camera previously had been removed....I am talking about those effects such as negative, country, etc. Can anyone confirm this?

  • Are u sure Htc is going to give that update also! they had quite a tough time giving us the MM update... lol If they do give another update just to enable 4G LTE, ohh boy I will be super-impressed with them!

  • can somebody help please, when I on wifi hotspot , it is working fine but getting switched off automatically. It worked fine when I was in 5.0 after updated to MM automatically getting switched off after sometime even devices are connected. Please help.

  • Because the updates of e8 are not yet live in Bangladesh. It will take some time to be rolled out.

  • My idea was after formatting 16 gb external card as internal i will get 32GB as internal storage. (16 internal+16 from sd card)

  • sir really i dont know...if we do factory setting we will loose all the saved data also which android version will be there.. i have to restore my phone contacts and then remove sim cards and memory card isnt it?

  • Are you currently on lollipop or kitkat?

  • my e8 continuously jst checks but it dosent showes any updat available. to lollipop or marshmellow. i am from bangladesh.

  • I have updated my OS to marshmallow!!! Should i factory reset the phone now cuz its kind of laggy after the update! What all should I backup before factory resetting it? Plus will i lose the apps which I have installed?

  • Yup,it is always advisable to factory reset after a major update so that the residue of previous firmware can be deleted.

  • You will need to use a UHS speed class 3 type SD card. Speed class 10 is slower than UHS speed class 3. There's one available on Amazon right now and it's of 32GB capacity.

  • hi. is advisable todo factory reset after marhmallow update?

  • friends, i had chat htc rep. online he says no 4g facility in htc one e8 dual sim

  • So yes your card is slower than what the phone is asking for,if it require class 3 card than class 10 is slower than that.

  • Class 3 cards are UHS card which are denoted as one of the fastest.

  • This seems to be an issue because peeps haven't reported this problem before.and btw why u want to format an 16gb sd card as internal?because HTC One e8 has 16gb as internal already so if you format your 16gb SD card as internal than you will have only 16 GB no expandable memory nothing just 16GB.I opted for a 128gb class 10 SD card but if you want than go for 64 GB because formatting 16 GB is just killing an feature of ur phone.

  • Can anyone help me out here ?

  • Hello, when I on wifi hotspot , it is working fine. It worked fine when I was in 5.0 after updated to MM automatically getting switched off after sometime even devices are connected. Please help.

  • No they won't work as HTC is supposed to provide an update to enable 4g setting for India,same as they did for HTC One m8 on August 15,2014.

  • Thanks dude

  • In my phone I'm using class 10 32gb,it's working fine, may be in yours it happen due to SD card problems in

  • Hi again..! What about cities like Calcutta where Vodafone is providing 1800 MHz band for 4G LTE connectivity? will that little tweaking not work for GSM 4G enabled sims?

  • II have Sandisk Ultra microSDHC UHS-I 16GB Class 10 Memory Card but when i'm trying to format it as internal storage it is showing the message that your card is too slow as internal storage and get class 3 card.Is it a bug in MM or my card is slow?

  • Okay 🙁

  • The setting you are asking about are for toggling network to LTE but in India those settings won't give LTE support(no support for 2300 band in HTC One e8).

  • Check out the screenshots buddy:

  • Hi, are u back? This is regarding that *#*#4636#*#* menu and LTE settings in it.

  • I am using airtel 3G in my E8 Dual sim. It's working absolutely fine.

  • There was a slight lag in the response for the motion gestures. This was before I factory reset my phone which I had planned to do post the upgrade. Clearing the cache and factory resetting made the phone smoother and the gestures are working fine :)

  • Ok thanks!

  • Press volume up and pwr button at the sametime on seeing red exclamation mark.

  • Can anyone post some screenshots of UI and new features after update?

  • Why?

  • Guys can u confirm that after going to the boot option can any one enter the recovery option or is it simply showing a red exclamation mark? n.b. : by boot i mean to say about the option which we enter after the pressing the power key and down key at the same instant. Mine is showing a red exclamation in recovery menu after marshmallow update. Thanks!

  • Its working fine after update.

  • I got 3 updates for the MM,1/2 for ready to device, 2/2 for 1go software, another one for software for Android updating features, except 2/2 1gb data three times downloaded,but it's showed corrupted software, then again downloaded 4th time, got installed successfully,I didn't reset my phone,display features got changed,some new experience with display,and calls speech I thought week and some noisy,data working fine, working normally, found some more clarity in music than before version,

  • Airtel India is supporting 3G at 900Mhz in many cities ( 900Mhz is blocked by htc in India ) . 4G is blocked by HTC in India . Ultimately HTC E8 dual Sim is $480 ( 34000) 2G phone for Indians .

  • Yes. It's seems harder now to use them. I've sent them a mail, hope they'll fix it. Ideally they should've fixed this issue given this delay in the release.

  • There is no setting for doze mode. It's a built-in feature within the OS. Your device will automatically doze after long periods on inactivity. :)

  • Did anyone find the doze mode?

  • Am happy for you all

  • Is any one facing problem with motion launch gesture (like double tap to wake) after mm update??

  • Has anyone from Egypt or the Middle East received the update? I have the M8sn single sim variant still running 4.4.2

  • Guys, good news is Marshmallow update has improved our device performance. Check out the antutu benchmark results here:http://imgur.com/Tg2wPFf

  • hi friends, after update MM just reset your phone.

  • I having problem when update downloaded and it shows corrupt update

  • The phone supports 4g.. but it is country specific.. locked for Indian users!!!! I don't know why they are not unlocking it for India region

  • 4g works on your phone?

  • it supports onlyquick charge 2.0, im already selling it for 950/-

  • I GOT MARSHMALLOW UPDATE TODAY. FINE, I AM THANKFUL TO HTC. NO 4G upgradation. only clobal/cdma/gsm hspa some changes in sense7 thank you all i am using airtel wifihotspot for 4g for bigger files. otherwise 3g is enough for me again thank gsm arena. MY NEXT PHONE WILL BE ONLY HTC THANK YOU HTC INSPITE OF NOT PROVIDING 4G IN THIS PHONE

  • Is it happening during / after the MM update?

  • Check your network settings, you might have to set it manually, otherwise call the Network provider (costumer care).

  • Happend with me too .. Total blackout.. for first time I called my phone with other phone it started working... When it happened second time .. I did every possible thing Was stuck for 7 hrs Then finally I found somewhere on internet that by pressing vol up + power simultaneously and holding for 30 sec it goes to fastboot recovery and then reboot from there I did it and it worked.. Hope this help u

  • How's the performance after MM update? Is there any problem,lagging issue or battery drain issue?

  • One question, once Jio is live and CDMA users are migrated to 4G on 800 band, still can they use this phone on 4G as it is on 800Mhz?

  • my E8 is dead today ... :( happened automatically .. It was just going to recovery and all of a sudden black screen and nothing is there ... It is even not taking charge on it. No charging red light no activity at all... May be battery deep discharged. HTC you suck big time.. I will never buy HTC again .. This same thing happened to one of my friend with another friend .. All of a sudden on day phone died. :(

  • Thanks HTC & bye Bye

  • I am damm sure that this phone will support 4G on global mode, if your operator is providing 4G on 1800 Mhz, 2100 Mhz, or 2500 Mhz, than this will surely support, some of the HTC support team are lack of knowledge, they are not knowing what they are saying.

  • Unfortunately yes. Now I'm never buying htc device again! Next device s7 as soon as I get my sim upgraded to reliance jio

  • How is battery life....?? With my mobile no change

  • Bad news for anyone expecting 4G. Just got a call from HTC services regarding a complaint I posted few weeks back and when I asked them about any possibility for 4g they told that this is not a 4G supportive phone. So we paid 30k for a non 4G phone.

  • MM update is only for m8sd models or is it available for GSM+GSM handsets?

  • hay guys After updated the E8 I got very annoying problem, The phone 3G is always disconnecting and I have to restart to recover the signal.... anybody has the same problem and do you have any idea to solve it?

  • Can't I just clear the cache from the recovery? Factory reset is a bit tedious.

  • Panorama 360 degree option in the camea is mission, now only 180 degree camera is available

  • It's always good to do a factory reset after major update.

  • Yes sense 7 is Available to us now.

  • Is it updated to Sense 7 as well?

  • Slide the screen two time. Its available

  • 360 degree panorama option is missing from camera after update.

  • Do we have to factory reset the phone compulsory ?

  • Are you all guys sure, it is also receiving Sense 7 Update.

  • Nothing as of now. It has been more than 2 hours I have updated. I haven't used camera etc yet.

  • Haven't checked about 4G. Phone has option to format external as internal memory. Best thing is security patch is of February 2016.that means update was delayed for fkin 2 months. Useless htc. I m not able to find fitbit app. I did factory reset.

  • Anyone finished updating ? any issues after upgrade?

  • Wow. Finally we are receiving MM

  • finally update :)

  • any update date about 4g support??

  • Yeah !!!! Update gone live....

  • Marshmallow update is live in India guys soo happy

  • Any update on 4G????????

  • Update is yet to finish. I was actually using QuickCharge compatible chargers since long back.. and they charge phone fast..

  • M8SD was dual sim CDMA/GSM supported version. Phone is still updating.. It's optimizing apps.. As soon as It's done I will post screenies.

  • Please upload your software details screenshot

  • Does new update supports quick charge 2.0..??

  • What version is M8SD? What does the phone display in the Model under settings?

  • One suggestion is to factory reset your phone post the update, IE, after both part 1 and 2 of the update are done. This will ensure your phone performs better and all the cache left behind by 5.0.2 will be cleared

  • Hell yeah! Update is live :) M8SD INDIA

  • i've also got update by checking manually it says it is in 2 parts and i bought this phone from Punjab but now i'm living in Italy

  • I can confirm the update is live for E8. I have received it on my E8 Dual SIM phone. Update and enjoy guys!

  • I have M8SD living in bangalore and i can confirm MM update is downloading when i checked for update manually. Finally good news for E8 indian users. Enjoy MM guys :)

  • MM update has come for India. I am updating my phone

  • HTC one E8 indian version started to update MM from morning 6 am 3 files first file 1/2 92.8mb then small update pack file then 2/2 1.09GB

  • Which variant, is it m8sd

  • I am from Mumbai started to receive updates good MM

  • I'm from Bangalore... I too received ....😊😊😊&­#128522;😊😊😊&­amp;#128522; full happy

  • I am from Karnataka btw.

  • Received an update of 92.8 mb. Says it's in parts of 2. Software update:2.33.720.8

  • Our device is more than capable of running MM. Oneplus one rocks same chipset already has MM.

  • First and last htc phone. Hello Galaxy s7

  • If the device is not capable to run MM OS, then how can some countries have received the update in E8, I think our system hardware is capable to run latest OS since it has 2GB of RAM and Snapdragon 801 processor. If they are saying as like you mentioned, surely they are showing lazyness for our handset.

  • I called them twice on helpline and also done chat with them and answer from chat is pasted following. Both time on call get same answer from different persons like it is in testing now one they find it O.K. in testing it will release after 45 days of it. Following is answer from chat. "Our developers are working on it. Once it is released, you will be notified via FOTA (Firmware Over the Air). We can understand your eagerness to update the device OS. However, the updates are decided by the developer after thorough testing and checking if the update indeed improves the performance of the device. If we find the updates useful then you will be notified on the device via FOTA. In the meanwhile, you can enhance the features of the device by downloading third party apps from Google Play. Although, we are unable to recommend any specific apps but the apps with the star rating of 4 and 5 are considered good. So you can consider installing them. If you come across any issues then you can simply uninstall them. As of now, it is still in pipeline. However, we are optimistic about the update. I do not want to set any wrong expectation as to when will it be released.But already, we have released the Marshmallow for ONE M8, ONE A9, Desire 816, ONE M8 Eye. So steadily our developers are working on to release the updates for other models also. The best feature of Marshmallow is that you can expand the internal memory using the SD card. Earlier, where you could not move the apps to SD card gets resolved because of this feature. So you will not fall short of space when installing apps on the phone. However, you will get to know what other features that actually come for your model once the update is released." Both the time they given very generic answers which showed their laziness and no commitment towards customer satisfaction. HTC is not at all very much customer loving and engaging company I observed. They behave like they just do favours to us by giving updates. Same love an affection they can expect from us in India for sure at least from me personally. I am not sure about other fan boys out there. And for the people who have sources or news from insiders... I believe it is all useless to discuss release date as of now.. I believe this phone is either usable on Kitkat only or better to get rid of it. For those who are using it for just because of Reliance Communication CDMA, RCOM is upgrading everyone to 4G in phased manner so better get a 4G handset. I will investigate some opportunity if this can be used on 4G and will post if successful in it else getting a new 4G capable device is the way to go. I personally will definitely get rid of HTC as they delivered update too much delayed at the time of Lollipop also and doing same at the time of Marshmallow... God knows even if they will give update or not. I personally will not look back on HTC and will not recommend HTC to anyone going forward for sure.

  • Still no update

  • Exactly. It was on 13th May 5.0.2 was released in India. So, they might release Marshmallow around the same time.

  • Last year E8 got lollipop update in India between 13-14th may...!! So HTC may be doing it knowingly?

  • updated to MM ..i live in eu and my E8 was purchased in Vietnam. What i like with htc is the sound .After the upgrad sound is greater imo. My main phone is meizu pro 5.

  • Mere speculation

  • I think in first week of May ... Llabtofer posted that desire 820 (eu) to get update in last week of April So India version of 820 might get updated by first week of May with our oneE8(m8sd) Hopefully....

  • No idea

  • any update on HTC E8 dual sim India ? when Android M is coming?

  • Which country

  • Yes, I'm using Android M now :)

  • HTC e8 good but you want to upgrade to other means, mi5 pro is good, HTC10 also good,

  • That means HTC is so unorganized not only in India but through out the globe. "HTC - At the verge of being extinct" this may come true if so...

  • Sorry, but we are following this forum some info about MM updates. Once the update is out most of us may not even get back here.

  • I had a chat with HTC representatives they said there is official notification about android M

  • Got the update a long time ago in here in turkey. I have the blue single sim edition. No major changes but sense 7 is awesome

  • this delay is common friends, I own htc one m8. htc release marshmellow 6.0 for htc one m8 in US on 3rd december 2015 and in India we got it on 1st feb 2016. htc prefer U S for updates.

  • Don't listen to this guy Dixitakarsh. His only aim is to see to it that he increases people's frustrations. Tomorrow, he'll come back saying update is in pipeline. He has no better work to do. I had a chat with an online representative of India and was told that the update is in pipeline and will make it to E8 for sure. It most likely is delayed due to the fact that there are other devices in India which are yet to receive the update and HTC would want to release them on the same day.

  • Is it true ...abt 45 days ...feeling low .no more htc...

  • Check out the link by parameswara rao

  • Which page, link please?

  • According to htc helpline if the update doesn't makes it way under 45 days than the update won't come.

  • Check out the date of the page,it was last updated at 27 March,and today is 13 April.

  • Not yet in kar india...

  • Guys any news about the updates from any sources??

  • The HTC One E8 Marshmallow update was earlier scheduled for the end of March. However, now that this has only happened in China and now itÂÂ’s happening in Europe, it should imply that U.S. users will be receiving the update in a few weeks to come or days for that matter. See the screen shots for (HTC One E8 MM Update)

  • Moto x style best in price range of rs.30,000

  • Can anyone suggest better alternative (non HTC,Samsung) to upgrade from E8

  • Not yet

  • Not ever going to buy htc again

  • Sources told after 12th april,because there is no chance of getting update today due to busy schedule for the launch.

  • Did anyone get android 6 update??

  • It isn't conformed that HTC 10 will ship with only with sd652 in India or not(won't be a suprise If it is true).I am saying this from starting that HTC has a non prioritising policy and HTC takes India for granted.I don't like htc nor I hate it(same for all companies),but recent activities of HTC are clarifying there intentions.I support your opinion of shifting to non HTC device(though am gonna try HTC 10 for 2 weeks) and spreading words.

  • I suppose you know the answer and is trying to be sarcastic.pricing was not even close to what I replied.

  • Does that mean HTC 10 with a price range around Rs.15,000/- Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 comes with all the latest features with a price tag of Rs.11999/-

  • There is a 652 model but it isn't conformed that only 652 model will ship to India.

  • I take HTC one e8 dual sim EAN made in China.....in step one update and install finish after it went into recovery menu and at the bottom reads installation aborted

  • Specs of HTC 10 :-http://www.zdnet.com/article/htc-10-specs-subl­ime-powered-amp-boomsound-speakers-better-than-e­ver/ And HTC 10 uses snapdragon 820 processor.

  • All the delay for update was because of the launch event of HTC 10 and that super hyped flagship phone comes with only Snap Dragon 652 processor.

  • How can you say that? Still I didn't get any notification yet.

  • which country and which model you are talking about please share some screenshots of update and error so we will be able to help you.

  • I tried update marshmallows but always fail and every install software directly go into recovery menu please help me...

  • Nothing as of now

  • Any news about update

  • Any news regarding update in India

  • The update is released by HTC India and is done usually around 10-11 am. But there are instances where updates have been released late evening.

  • No update ....:(

  • downloading android 6 now :)

  • Welcome

  • Ur welcome mate

  • hmm....

  • Thank you

  • Thanks man, atleast you confirmed MM is coming to E8 indian model just not sure about date but that's fine as long as they don't say no update for India.

  • I will try to provide you info about those setting once I get back to India.

  • According to my source update isn't out yet in India, so I have no idea how did shekup and some other got it.According to source update will be out after 12th april.

  • ...

  • Below links will take you to that screenshots:

  • I will try to get some information.Don't say it as rumor if the information goes wrong because I have no control over HTC.

  • i am wondering why htc one e8 is not provided with 4g, whereas m8 and m8 eye are supporting 4g. htc one m8 and e8 were sold that the difference is plastic body and infrared. the cheaper version m8 eye has 4g as per official website of htc. then for a phone with 3g only and poor camera we paid 35000 rs. what a bias by htc. if you htc 626 has 1.7 ghz octacore,1gb ram ,13 megapixel camera with dual sim the price was 16000rs only we need not buy high end phones,this is the lesson

  • Show screenshots.. Here or xda please!

  • Please post screenshot here.. Or in xda

  • What are your HTC peeps saying now? I am waiting for a new date please enlightened us with it.

  • It will not help in getting updates don't fall into this crap and wait for update to be release and see some screenshot and then believe it.

  • It worked. Thanks shekup :)

  • Uninstalled the htc service pack and reinstalled it. I got the update then

  • I also didn't get the update.

  • That's weird. I checked but didn't get any update yet.

  • Obviously India. M8sd

  • It wil be great if you tell us model name and country instead just saying I got update

  • Damn stupid phone. First of all I have no 4g support in India. Brought this phone as a backup for my Galaxy S7 to Sydney as I hoped to use my Vodafone India SIM on roaming at Sydney for OTP etc. But the phone is not latching in to any network. Tried on both SIM slots and nada. This is pathetic considering the Snapdragon 801 has a modem which has support for almost all carrier basebands but dumbass HTC had to disable some basebands on a software level....why htc? Why?

  • I uninstalled the htc service pack. N re installed it. N received the update soon

  • Is there any htc service pack update required before we get MM update?. I remember before lollipop update we recieved htc service pack update which enables the lollipop update when we check for updates.

  • I checked but, didn't get any. Where are you from?

  • No,by the way which country ???

  • I've received android m update today. Have any of u?

  • Ok, I'll try uploading it on imgur once I get 3G / WiFi

  • Here we go. A "fan-atic" boy who can't see his master wrong. Other users have agreed with me with your master's spreading of rumors! So damn what if he is a beta tester, do you expect us to worship him? Crap! He's far limited in his knowledge compared to many out there! He's just trying to gain brownie points here. If you don't like English so much, why are you using it? Such a hypocrite!

  • If you can wait than it will be better as this year is full of new upcomings.

  • hahaha you just read my mind I was looking at moto x style myself and its really good. But just thinking if i should wait for new phone to release this year before buying last year phones.

  • Under your budget I would have gone with Motorola x style(great phone with sd card support upto 128gb,and promised future updates).yes this year both nexus phone will be manufactured by HTC(HTC said they have 3 year contract with Google).

  • regarding os update i had chat with htc online chatting. the answer is "no confirmation about the availability of an upgrade to the phone,we apologize for the wait and hope to provide in verynear future"

  • Yes, I know about nexus 6p 128 gb but it falls out of my budget range i want a smartphone below 30,000 range as I feel above 30 is kind of pointless to spend on a phone but that's just me. I reallly like nexus 5X but 16/32 gb storage option is bad thing about it. Should I wait for this year's nexus phones but is it true HTC will make this year's nexus phones?. I am waiting for one plus 3 launch maybe it will offer better specs/price ratio just like one plus 2 which is great phone but its getting old.

  • As nexus is the only phone ahead of HTC in providing update(according to update report card).I know that you are fed up of HTC but you can wait for April 12th to see what HTC has in-stored for us(HTC provides quick update to there top notch flagship).

  • You can buy nexus 6P 128gb version(I suppose 128 gb is more than enough).

  • I agree with you, but the only thing that stops me from buying nexus phones is the lack of SD card slot which is very important for me to store lots of stuff mp3,mp4,games, the built in 16/32 is not enough.

  • If you have received the official marshmallow update than there is no need to unlock boot loader.can u post screen shot or a image of what screen you are stuck in?that will help me to guide you better

  • And nexus phone will never run on older version android,because even if ur phone gets too old for a new update you can download custom Rom to get latest android(owners of nexus 4 gets update before they are launch,not official though).

  • If u want to get update as soon as they get launch than nexus phones are best.

  • I have decided never buy HTC phones. fake 2 years device support when you have HTC advantage phone.. Bullshit.. they didn't even give 2 major updates to the phone in 2 years.. damn screw htc.. I feel samsung is way better than HTC.. at least they give updates to phones.. buying 34k phone and getting no updates.. HTC desire 816 was 20k phone got android M already.. bullshit..

  • I bought this phone in December 2014 knowing that hopefully i will get lollipop + MM update, I was happy at first when i got the lollipop update but still 5.0.2 and not 5.1.1 made me sad again. Then i hoped for MM update i was excited but again there is no information about the update for Indian model phones. I am wondering in India which smartphone manufacturer gives best android updates because i am sick of phones not getting update because its a Indian model. I am planning on getting new phone selling this good for nothing E8 which has no 4G(2300hz for my airtel 4g) or MM update which makes me have no interest in keeping this phone any longer than I have to.

  • Ok !?! But this will not help to update ? How to update then if locked and how to unlock ? Do you recommend ? It's not logic to stay with the same software ? Thanks for the help

  • Let him say what he wants,I Don't care.

  • Mention not mate.

  • The image isn't there,go to imgur and upload ur image there than copy bbcode and post in here.

  • I'm damn scared to make changes under *#*#4636#*#* phone info menu. I got my hands burnt last year by making changes in radio band, where my phone lost signal and HTC service certer could not fix the issue and finally I got replacement. So, anybody who is sure can help us.

  • In *#*#4636#*#* phone info menu I find options like 'turn on lte ram dump' and under 'select preferred network type' I find many choices of which LTE was not the default option. If that is changed will we be able to use 4G... Below attached are the link to the screenshots:

  • Were*

  • His command on English sucks?where we're you born in Britain?britishers left India and forgot to take you with them.your each comment is just for starting a fight,akd100 just post what he came to know and you always blame him for ur agitation.akd100 doesn't replies to your rude behaviour doesn't means you will keep on saying what comes to your mind. If I found you again going rude with him than you won't see the good side of me again.

  • Thanks for your time,I bought s7 with vr and the experience is great.thanks again for helping me decide.

  • My comment was about device not the ROM.

  • Yes, i did buy this phone in Oct 2014, i was in dire need of a new phone as my old xperia x8 was busted, i wanted to buy One Plus One but it was not available in India at that point of time, so I went for 2 more options I had left with within my budget which were Xperia Z2 and HTC one e8. I found e8 better and than Z2 at that point of time...! But, now i regret, that I should have waited 2 more months as OPO launched in India in Dec 2014!! I think that HTC would not provide any software tweaks to implement 4G support for 1800MHz band in India as its more of a hardware related issue than something which can be fixed by updates..! Anyways, thanks for all the support Bro..! It was nice talking to you.... Good Luck!

  • Don't loose hope wait for marshmallow,it is possible that marshmallow will provide 4g support at 1800 band.and when did u got this phone?if u got it in 2014 than HTC one e8 was one of the best buy at that time.

  • I just checked today morning, I took out my sim card and inserted into my father's moto e 2nd gen LTE model, I was delighted to see 4G symbol on the notification bar but felt equally sad to realize that my HTC one e8 does not catch 4G! I read about the band 1800MHz here and other websites for this phone, while I was buying this phone and knew eventually 1800MHz band would be released in India. Never I had thought that once again I am only buying a 3G device that too with INR 35k! I feel ridiculously duped by HTC now!

  • *#*#4636#*#* shows LTE option . It means that it can support LTE

  • I just got confirmed that HTC one e8 in India is the cdma model.so it doesn't have access to 4g on 1800 band.

  • HI again.. I am using m8sd model and on 5.0.2 Lollipop. I am currently using 4G sim card provided by Vodafone Store in Calcutta few days ago. I am not getting access to 4G or LTE, its only showing H in the notification bar and in settings menu when I go to 'Mobile data'>Slot 1 network>Preferred Network> I am getting only 3 options: (1)Global mode (2)CDMA mode (3)GSM/UMTS mode and under GSM/UMTS mode> again 3 more options: (a)GSM/UMTS Dual (b)GSM only (c)UMTS only. So, there is no option of 4G or LTE in those menus. I know that Vodafone in Calcutta is providing 1800MHz band for 4G LTE FDD, because I confirmed it from the Vodafone Store Supervisor. Is it that somehow 4G not activated on my phone but its working for you?

  • It is port of m8 Rom by black Victor for all HTC one e8 dual SIM.

  • It is nowhere written in Device specs that it is for Sprint.

  • The htc one E8 dual sim phone what i have bought in december 2014 at coimbatore updated with lollypop is only having gsm/3g/ CDMA options. i had chat with htc centre online ,they said no 4g for for my phone after confirming my phone imei(code number).regarding update it is under process. i am upset by HTC for not providing 4g version and cheating with cdma version for 35000 rupees phone. i conveyed my anger to them.what is the point in expecting mm android 6 now.whereas htc m8 got all features.. initially everybody including gsm arena said except the cover and infrared connectivity both are same.official website for htc one e8 dual sim shows only 2g and 3g..the 4g bands for htc one e8 dualsim/cdma are 25(1900)26(850)and 41 (2500). truly no lte or 4g in my phone..thank you

  • Bro, even I agree with you about the "no update, tweet". Posting it here was very much misleading. What's the point of posting what the HTC USA has to say about their update plans, when the discussion was predominantly about the Indian model. And any kind of rumor, whether real Or fake, is very frustrating since everyone here is waiting for the update. PS:No offense to either of you.

  • very weak battery, drains off very soon.

  • Okay

  • Your command on English sucks big time. I haven't come across a single keyboard that would autocorrect "plan" to "plane" or "Twitter" to "tweeter". Coming to your post on no updates for E8, it's only after I hit out to you, you came up saying it's true for phones in US. When the discussion here has been for India and people have been asking the same for India, you make a generic statement like as of the "no update" is true for every region, so who's the kid here? For some odd reason, your primary aim is to falsify info and get people agitated. Do something productive instead of this nonsense.

  • the keypad makes mistake due to auto correct and there is no edit feature in this opinion section.I don't want to start a fight with u(I know u are a kid and want to mess with me),so it will be better if u learn some manners before replying.what HTC USA is saying is correct according to them as some of the US carrier are in real not launching the update for HTC one e8.am not here to spread rumors if u have access to internet than go type "www.Google.com" and search in it for USA carrier abording the update.before pointing ur finger towards someone,u should clear ur facts first. And if u find some spelling mistake than correct them because I don't have time for correcting those mistake. MU100 CODE NAME

  • I did also chat with HTC India, they told the update will rollout soon.

  • Don't listen to him. He's here just to spread rumors and make you hate the OEM. I did have a chat with HTC India representatives and they said, the update is in pipeline and apologized for the wrong info HTC USA tweeted. You will get the update soon :)

  • I have clarified regarding the HTC USA tweet in a post earlier. You are again back to spreading rumors. It would be constructive if you could first read all theosts and then comment. The rollout is still in pipeline! BTW, it's plan and not plane and it's Twitter and not tweeter

  • Then how did the Chinese and European models got it? And doesn't HTC one E8 come under the HTC advantage program,according to which it will get at least 2 software updates?

  • Everyone can still wait but according to htc USA the plane of launching android m on HTC one e8 has been dropped and only security updates will be provided to htc one e8. Source:-tweeter

  • Use chrome to translate the page to eng.

  • Wrong link. It's says for Sprint version..

  • As I have mentioned earlier , HTC E8 will be 480$ feature phone if HTC is not giving 3G in 900 MHz or LTE in 1800/2300 MHz in India . As we can see that it is enabled in other areas of world . It will bad future for HTC , if they don't understand the need for customers atleast now .

  • How many of you have noticed these two bugs with sense 6? 1. The phone does not vibrate when a call is answered even though vibration feedback for calls is enabled. 2. WhatsApp still gives notification when priority mode is set though priority is not enabled for WhatsApp. I hope they've fixed this in the M update. Since lollipop was a major update, it was stupid of HTC to retain the same sense skin on 5.0.2 for 2014 devices. I have also come to know that they've improved the search on the dialer in sense 7. In sense 6 and below if you dial a number (1234567890 for eg) and of you have stored the contact of this number with the country code, then the contact does not show up when you dial the number. Smart dial works though seemlessly. The feature HTC has still left out in sense 7 is heads up notification for calls while using an app which was introduced in 5.0. The call notification still shows up full screen irrespective of what you are doing at the moment.

  • E9, E9+ and M9+ are also yet to receive the update and given that the update has already been rolled out for E8 in other parts of the world, it should rollout in another weeks time.

  • Link pls. I have M8SD!

  • But if drajpal is saying that cdma model is sold in India than I think there is no 4g support for ur device in India yet.you can wait for marshmallow and check if they provide support for 1800 band.

  • The indian phone is A dual sim CDMA model check network Info on your device and you will find a MEID and we are not in CDMA section of opinions. I am using CDMA on this phone and only one variant was sold in India. HTC ONE E8 CDMA is at following link. It has following 4g bands which is like following. which is useless for us. Unless they switch bands for us in next upgrade. One more issue that will they give VOLTE on this phone if they enable 4G bands on it. LTE band 25(1900), 26(850), 41(2500)

  • How to select 4g network there are only 3 options global mode, cdma mode, gsm/umts

  • Vodafone*

  • India has access to 4g over 2 bands that is 2300,1800(but before there was no one providing 4g on 1800)but as he said that vodaphone is providing 4g at 1800 band than HTC one e8 dual SIM supports it(I don't know which device u are using,the opinion section u are in is for dual SIM and it supports 1800 band)

  • So do we have the cdma model?

  • HTC one E8 do not support 4g Bands in India do a comparison of HTC one E8 and HTC One E8 CDMA on this site GSMArena and you will understand the differences in bands.

  • HTC one e8 support 4g for 1800 band.

  • HI guys.... people who got MM update and ppl who tested for MM beta, have u checked whether 4G LTE is working now with this phone or not for 1800MHz band? I am from Calcutta and we have 1800MHz band frequency for 4G LTE provided by Vodafone, but I can't use it as I am still on Lollipop! So, was wondering if things would change with the new MM update

  • Ya but those desire where 816 and desire eye ...both have been updated in India ...I guess then it would with 820 which is expected to get in q2 means we may have to wait up-to June

  • They did the same last year while releasing 5.0.2 for E8. Along with E8, a bunch of desire series also got the update.

  • The update is in pipeline and as I have been telling in my previous posts, it is most likely that they have found a bug and are in the process of fixing it. I had a chat with the customer representative of India and the person said, there would definitely be an update to Marshmallow. It's just a matter of time.

  • Some of countries have received MM update in E8, india will also receive, wait for the time.

  • I did ask them that but they couldnt give out any particular date on when it would be available.

  • And when would that be?

  • Going forward htc one e8 will only receive security updates and will not jump to marshmallow. Htc USA just tweeted me back. Bad news guys

  • Hey guys, I had a long online chat with HTC India rep and according to them the update is still in pipeline and they are working on releasing the update for other devices too. I think the delay in release is because the update for other devices is not ready yet, according to them, they plan on releasing the update for all the expected devices on the same day.

  • You are talking specifically for nexus devices,for company like Samsung and HTC u need to have permission for beta version(HTC provide the testing version).

  • Ik HTC puts it's sense touch to every android upgrade,but marshmallow is already out for HTC one e8 in other countries, so most of the features and bugs are known(can't expect something new to come out than what is already there).

  • 2nd bug : Double Tap to Wake not working when connected to usb through pc. We have to press power button to wake it while it is connected.

  • Any one with supported Nexus devices can download and flash image and do testing for Android N as of now (same was the case for Marshmallow). But it does not translate how HTC will customise it and what features will be there on HTC devices. HTC has their own bugs to take care of.

  • HTC one m9 received guest mode,but can't say of e8 but u can expect it from HTC.

  • Lollipop had guest user feature in it and HTC removed it. Will that feature show up in MM update.. Thanks

  • Ur welcome

  • Thanks

  • If someone wants custom Rom for there e8 dual SIM than ask me,I will provide a link.

  • Check this page out,it will tell u 14 new features of marshmallow.(some of them won't be there in e8)

  • Any other striking features ?

  • Yea flex storage is a greatest yet less discussed feature and e8 will receive it.

  • Can you tell the distinct new features that we will get with MM update apart from doze? I heard we can format the memory card and can merge that with internal memory,is this true for e8 ?

  • Anyone have info about date when e8ss will receive marshmallow ota?

  • I tested beta of marshmallow(n a nexus device).and beta isn't allowed to be provided to anyone until specific permission.

  • you tested beta of marshmallow? for which device? htc one e8? give us link to download beta then..

  • I tested beta marshmallow and it is one of the best os version on android.there are some issues that persist but most of them(nearly all)won't affect ur daily usage.so it will worth the wait for sure.

  • Hi...can someone list issues currently in lollipop in our device so that we can compare/ check if htc has fixed it in their marshmallows update...thanks in advance...(btw still waiting for MM)

  • Nope

  • What u mean by "not on"?is ur device not turning on?and what colour does the led shows while charging?

  • Any updates??? Indian variant!

  • htc one e8 not on.. charging time led on and off plzzzz.... solution....? plzzz help?????

  • 6th page of htc one e8 marshmallow discussion in xda forum

  • Can you share the link... ...?

  • XDA forums.

  • How do u know bro??

  • It is a good phone if u want to buy only this phone.

  • It will loose it support for updates soon.and the phone had became old now,if u are searching phone in this price range than go for moto turbo or else if u really want to get only HTC than get HTC one e9+ or A9(A9 performance isn't good the processor isn't powerful enough to handle a lot of heavy process).

  • HTC e8, good or bad mobile?

  • As I predicted...

  • Why would u wanna go for 2 year old phone. Is it even available in the market? If you wanna go wid HTC then go for A9 which u get at the same price.

  • Not really new to flashing/rooting. I'm not a techie but a pro user. Used to flash custom roms for my HTC Pico/explore.

  • Update may be live after 12th of this month for E8 in India(from htc source).

  • Yes, HTC one e8.. Good or bad mobile?

  • No idea what HTC is up to.btw can't do anything else than waiting.

  • Any news about the update? The 3 day grace period ends today and I can't see any update yet.

  • Ur*

  • Don't do it,if u are new to flashing Rom or else u may end up bricking it phone.

  • Vr is a new concept which will take its boost from next year.but if u really want to experience vr right now than go for it as it is a decent experience(for better experience you should approach for HTC vive or oculus rift but u will have to wait for them).it is surely a new experience and u will for sure like it for a week or 2 but after that u won't find it useful(laggy fps,upper visible white and some other issue will make it boring).So if I was u than I would have chosen to take the s7 all alone.

  • Can anybody help me to roll back to kitkat on an non rooted device.

  • When there flagship phone came galaxy s3 and s4 I faced a lot issue with them(both used to hang),and I think that Samsung phone aren't long lasting(u will end up selling them after a year or 2 due to its bad performance drop).and the behavior of there service center employees was bad.due to which I Don't like Samsung product.

  • Or*

  • Should I get Samsung vr with s7 of not(I can bargain the price if I don't need it).I mean does it worth getting vr?thanks

  • I don't check it,that is why always mention check if this works for it device or not(in case u didn't read it).but there are cm 13 available for HTC one e8.and it is okay to stay with stock.

  • That page has link of m8 LOL have you checked it before posting or just posted link after Google search? I am happy with stock KitKat as of now don't want to waste more time on it HTC and this device don't deserve it anymore. I got stuck into CDMA contract that's why need it otherwise would have changed it earliker but after contact is over definitely ditch THIS PHONE And HTC and will never look back on them.

  • R u Deepak?if yes than download CM13 for HTC one e8(the cm 13 is really improved),it Will give u marshmallow. Check if this works for ur device or not:- Note:-am assuming that ur device is rooted and u want marshmallow before official launch.so if this is true than go ahead with this,but if not than I would suggest wait for sometime for official release.

  • I already tried that one or else flasing RUU after changing CID in both case IMEI both of them and MEID does not visiable to system and no network detectd. IF I rollback CID and put Indian system it works again. Also after applying OTA system is not booting.

  • If your searching for HTC one e8 price range phone than get moto turbo(it got some superb specs).

  • You mean HTC one e8?

  • I wanna buy this mobile.. Can you tell me your opinion pls?

  • Okay, really thanks for replying me.i will go for galaxy s7 than.and may I ask u one question that why do u don't like Samsung?any bad incidence or something else?it will be really nice of you if you reply as am scared that why you don't like it(your all reviews are unbiased).thanks

  • Make people agitate?spread rumours?I just read all akd100 conversation and all I found was people asking for dates and he trying his best to make everyone feel good,he doesn't owns e8 and is taking this matter personally.And u instead of thanking are trying to blame him for your agitation?every date told by him was through his sources,he didn't told those dates with his own assumption.

  • Are you serious or is this some kind of joke?

  • After that u can check for update and u will see marshmallow official update.

  • This will tell u how to make ur device an eu device,read everything carefully(backup before carrying on) and he did it on some other model but that may work for m8sd too,so give it a try.

  • Ik that am saying most of peeps in India own desire series devices more than one series.

  • Since E8 is belongs to One series and 816 from Desire series, One series has more prority to get updates. E8 shouls get MM update.

  • I checked Marshmallow rom is for sprint not for indian version. It will not work on dualsim devices. Only option is that somehow if we get indonesia version get working then we can upgrade it to marshmallow.

  • Galaxy s7 edge is the best right now(though I Don't like Samsung),but if u want to enjoy a true android with an long term update support than Xperia z5 is best.u can visit my top 10 list and see if u find some other smartphones of ur interest.

  • Desire 816 series users are more in India than e8,due to which HTC is ignoring the rest.

  • I seriously think that they are taking the customers for granted. Even HTC desire 816 received the update before E8. Shouldn't the priority of rolling out the update for E8 be before that of 816? They claimed to provide us with the update by the end of March and it's been two days and still there's no update. No wonder people are more inclined towards other brands. Really disappointed with the software services.

  • Haha!

  • HTC is busy working on their launch event of the new flagship HTC 10

  • If some of u don't have problem with rooting there phone than download marshmallow rom.

  • Please guide me how to roll back to kitkat. I have Indian version m8sd

  • There is no update ......

  • We will see bro...

  • Seriously in this heated forum I think this is best idea tol enjoy April Fool's Day. i got news that htc is giving free M 0 to every e8 user.

  • Really it gets update on 02 April.are you sure

  • After too much delay in update and no sign or early rollout ... I rolled back my phone to kitkat and now working good... I even tried to switch to Indonesia version as it is similar model and got Marshmallow but after flashing RUU phone lost its both IMEI and MEID.. . However I rolled back to India version Kitkat and phone is working file. This will be my LAST HTC device as they knowingly did super late and buggy release of Lollipop In India and they did not fixed it properly and now doing same delay for Marshmallow. The Indonesia and India phones are almost identical so why they can release the update their but non in India on time?

  • How you come to know that we will get update only after 12th?

  • Don't worry folks. I've spoken to the chief software developer of htc india. The software will begin rolling out tomorrow. For e8. Cheers 🍻

  • We won't get updates before 12th....

  • So? Does that give him the right to spread rumors or make people agitate?

  • Do you even know who akd100 is?if not than he is one of the best beta tester in India and you surely don't have much more knowledge than him.

  • So is s7 best in this price range or u suggest some of other device?thanks for ur time.

  • I am a software tester and and I'm speaking from that perspective. Even though I did have a few view points in favor of HTC, I did say that the delay in releasing is not justified unless they have found a critical bug. At least I am not going about spreading rumors and making people believe they'd get at sometime and then make them feel disgusted about the OEM. About the non-prioritizing update, it's absolutely baseless as I have said in my previous example!

  • Any news on update? So now can we expect any action before next week?

  • ok thanku

  • I'm using e8 in Europe(Italy) but I bought it in India so when I'll get marshmallow update

  • Select reboot options instead of reboot to boot loader.

  • Boot loader is unlocked only when u want to root ur device and have custom Rom.so if u are installing it update than Don't select boot loader.

  • Ur boot loader is locked and need to be unlocked but it will void ur warranty.

  • Hi again , I'm getting software update 2.35.425.9 which says part 1/2 ( this interim update will prepare your device to install android 6.0 ) Once completing the update and trying to install I'm getting redirected android system recovery With options reboot ...apply update from adb ...wipe date ...factory reset ...reboot to boot loader etc ...I read some where I should go to reboot to boot loader , selecting this option takes me to another page says the phon is locked with different options I.e. Hboot ..... Appreciate your help

  • See*

  • U won't se android n before September.

  • phone was Released in 2014, June. Yet to complete 2 years !

  • Marshmallow works faster than lollipop,battery lasts longer,u get option for flex storage(means u can buy a 128 gb 10 class sd card and make it as it internal by formatting it),more customisation options.

  • I have nexus 7 2013 and used lollipop on it and using marshmallow on it lollipop had issues but google fixed them but with htc they have not fixed them also not cooked marshmallow in that time it seems they were on vacation...🤔🤔&#12930­0;🤔🙄🙄&#1­28580;🙄😉😉&am­p;#128521;😉😉!!!!!!

  • According to the specs required for marshmallow HTC one e8 is eligible but according to htc 2 year plan HTC one e8 lies a little outside(but still m7 was supported for more than 2 years).so don't make any assumptions just wait for the official announcement.

  • Yesterday I received the notification Marshmallow. Before upgrading I wanted to know if someone has already done to find out if there are bugs, and generally how it goes !! Fast or lags? Battery lasts longer than lollipop?

  • Marshmallow will be the last major Update that we'll get for our devices. Let's hope that HTC atleast gives us a bug free OS.

  • How to became beta tester for htc..?

  • It was all HTC decision for not to provide 5.1.1 for HTC one e8 and some other devices of it.other devices got it asap after 5.0.1 got launched to fix several bugs.

  • And I*

  • I tested lollipop and it was working pretty well(I didn't tested it for htc devices I just checked the os in nexus).Andover would have provided u the beta marshmallow but tester aren't allowed to give beta version to anyone without permission.and am not here to test anyone patient am here to provide everyone the information I receive about the upcoming update(HTC is not standing on there words).

  • Please don't take my words personally Apologies in advance...!! Are you here to gauge, test and know our patience? If so please communicate that have anyone tested Lollipop for some days before delivering... and even after delivering anyone used it as daily driver ... and if someone used does that person feel that it needs urgent updates and fixes of 5.1.1. It is also urgent and important to deliver and update Marshmallow in Q1 and ASAP. If you have test builds of MM for E8 and if they are better then current 5.0.2 can you please provide them so they will heal phone someting till the update arrives. Note- I don't advise everyone to upgrade to test builds if the E8 phone is your daily driver.

  • I know it is really tough to use a os which has no. Of issue,and I can understand everyone anxiety to get there hands on marshmallow that is why am here.And ur welcome,am here until u all receive marshmallow for HTC one e8.

  • Where u from?

  • They will never tell u about the reason for delay.the employees responsible for replying to tweet or other social media sites don't know much about what is going on.they just apologies or say we are working to calm the crowd down.

  • I don't think they will come today.according to rule if the deadline passes the company is supposed to fulfil there words withig next 3 days known as Grace days.as deadline that is q1 or today there isn't any update than we will see it in next 3 days that is 1-3 april.but this is just a rule I Don't know what HTC will do.but just hope for the best.

  • HTC says this is not a resion to delay of update. They are working on updates and rollout shortly

  • Now what do you think these updates coming when on 31 Mar 2016

  • In real update don't work like this.they are probably stabilising a server.because if they roll out the update in India without stabilising a server than there update server will get crashed and will result in a big problem(because of huge population of india HTC can't handle everyone owning the HTC devices to update at same time).due to which they provided some desire and other HTC devices update before so that server doesn't get through over load.

  • Other countries have not India type carriers so that it developing the update to accept networks

  • The update has already been developed and had already been launched in most of the countries more than 10 days ago.

  • Please don't worry about updates it surely get on HTC e8. They have no dates about update. But they are saying it gets early as possible

  • My dear all who are waiting for update on HTC e8 . HTC is developing updates and get prepare for .Handset then reliese it. So don't believe on fake dates of update

  • Don't know what they are up to.but just check for update at the end of the day if nothing came than q2 3 days will be Grace days for HTC to launch marshmallow in q1 devices.

  • Finally any idea when we can get MM update for HTC one E8 in India. Where can we really find this info from HTC (Authentic) Its not that we can wait, but no communication frustrates. Request HTC should let us know range of Date if not a specific date.

  • I suppose u mean galaxy s7*.Am not a big fan of Samsung nor I recommend it but s7 is surely better than moto x.

  • What should I get Samsung s7 or moto x?plzz reply I read ur review but can't decide.

  • I suppose u are a big HTC fan,and want to stand for them.non prioritising update in some region is done by HTC from years,they never roll out update for some countries on or before deadline same took place for lollipop,kitkat.india never got a single update before other countries for ur information(they prioritise korea,China and some other countries).

  • After China, yes. But these phones did receive it in India way before many other regions of the world.

  • Who told u that?china,Italy received it days before India did.

  • On what basis do you say that HTC is using a non prioritized strategy for some regions? If that is to be believed, then why did the Desire Eye, M8 Eye and Desire 816 receive the update in India even before other regions received it?

  • We really appreciate ur help about keeping us updated about the update, its just that people are getting restless because rest of the world has got it and India hasn't. Thank You

  • hi buddies,i suggest to every one who have e8 give MM update That's great. it made my phone so faster,my battery last more and perfection features in sense 7 & etc... it just use 840 mb of my RAM And 1 gig is free but before i upgrade my device i saw a vid in utube there was and e8 in MM update and it shows 1.4 gig in use !

  • I Don't use HTC one e8 am here because I came to know that HTC is non prioritising update in some region.I tested beta marshmallow in November 2015 and was surprised that peeps are still waiting to receive update.that is why I thought to provide u guys some information that I receive from my sources(this isn't supposed to be told).

  • 1st 26th and 27th march was never my prediction it was told to me by my friend and fortunately he received the update on that date(he lives in Dubai).update at 30 March 7:30pm was told to me by a HTC India employee to me(he apologised for wrong info).

  • There is a high possibility that HTC would have had a bug reported by users of regions who have received the update and that could be causing the delay. In one of their tweets they even apologized for the delay. If this is the case, I'd be happy to wait till the bug gets fixed rather than receiving a buggy OS.

  • Your predictions have always turned out to be false. Half the anxiety created is from your false predictions. There was never an announcement on HTC's Facebook page that there'd be a release on March 26/27. Then you said 30th at 7:30pm. All are false. I'd suggest you not to spread false rumours.

  • Anybody knows whether MM update will be in Q1 or Q2, today is the last day, I think it will take some more days.

  • No update

  • Hi again , I'm getting software update 2.35.425.9 which says part 1/2 ( this interim update will prepare your device to install android 6.0 ) Once completing the update and trying to install I'm getting redirected android system recovery With options reboot ...apply update from adb ...wipe date ...factory reset ...reboot to boot loader etc ...I read some where I should go to reboot to boot loader , selecting this option takes me to another page says the phon is locked with different options I.e. Hboot ..... Appreciate your help

  • That is best, not to promote them at all.

  • Yes, I do agree with you. Nowadays i've stopped suggesting HTC to people. After sale services is pathetic and HTC India administration team is not up to mark.

  • Let them tweet whatever they want,they are clearly taking some countries for granted so just oppose them so that they Don't repeat it.

  • I am aware of it.but that delay is unreasonable,there can't be a single reason for delaying update after it being rolled out for many other countries.only reason can be is non prioritising the update in some countries and if this is the reason than HTC has no grounds for asking support or asking us to be patient.

  • I'm repeating, HTC India team is apologizing for delay on twitter. I don't know how to add a screenshot of that here. This is their conversation: Customer: @HTC_IN Before fastest and smoothest Android, How about Marshmallow update for HTC ONE E8, whole world got it but not India Version. 😏😏 HTC_IN: @ankitpawar24 Dear Sir, our team is working on the updates and we would share the timelines soon. We're very sorry for the delay.

  • Gotta wait for last day of q1 that is tomorrow.after that I will talk to htc india and will write a blog on it too.

  • US is yet to receive MM updates

  • Is there any news about MM update, almost all countries have received MM on E8, what about India, I think it will received MM soon but when, we are in last of Q1.

  • Or just download marshmallow ota from internet.

  • If they do not update it to MM either I will roll back to Kitkat or will put a version which has MM and works on CDMA.

  • Motorola phones are getting updates very quickly. Very dissapointed with HTC will never go for this brand ever

  • other people who run miui or other android variants or stock take our phone and simply say.... What a junk you are having after spending 32K on theirphone of xyz brand is still better then yours throw your phone etc. etc.. Being on CDMA user I can't do it otherwise this was changed a long back ago or In first place I wouldn't bought it. When you are at coffee vending machine and you call some one at the same time start making coffee the machine makes coffee and delivers to you by that time THIS HTC E8 on 5.0.2 starts making calls... This is become part of everyday life that you call someone and call start after so many times or you phone rings after a few bells... what they want that phone just show miss calls after someone calls? They don't understand that memory leaks are making this phone unusable and it needs urgent update to fix it. Very very disappointed as HTC introduce a zillion variants of this phone and not giving in a Big market like India on time. I asked on twitter @HTC_IN that should we invest in their Flagships going forward and I ask users here also.

  • other people who run miui or other android variants or stock take our phone and simply say.... What a junk you are having after spending 32K on it our 0-

  • Unfortunately No update till as others replied too...:( They don't understand that if this phone had 5.1.1 and memory leak bugs fixed it would be easier to wait as devices had worked much better... other people who run miui or other android variants or stock take our phone and simply say. What a junk you are having after spending 32K on it our 0-

  • No updates as of now.. Really fed up

  • Can't say it was supposed to be update today at 7:30pm.

  • It's getting today or not

  • Well, that's okay.

  • It's going to get update today or not

  • I don't know what HTC is up to,the source I was talking about is a HTC India employee.He told me that update will roll out today on 7:30pm.

  • Not yet

  • Oh.. If you have bought your phone in India then your phone comes with both cdma and gsm support. SIM1 supports both cdma & gsm while SIM2 supports only gsm. You will get update that's for sure but u'll have wait with us.

  • Yeah it will receive marshmallow.

  • do you got update??

  • HTC one E8 CDMA also will get Marshmallow update? Any one have information about it plz share with me

  • Shoo do you got update??

  • HTC India team would have gone back to their home by now & the wait still continues...

  • Just checked no update checking after rebooting clearing update app defaults and data etc or clearing cache..etc.. Will update after checking.

  • Still no update

  • Just check now no update will check at 7.30 PM.

  • Unable to send photo on this

  • Sir please show us screenshot. It would be great.

  • Which device? Please can you share screenshots and capture ota and share it?

  • I said from 7:30 pm,wait for some hours.

  • I'm from Bangalore, Karnataka. But no updates yet. Current software version on my phone is 2.33.720.6

  • Let's hope your sources are right I live in Sri Lanka and I am eagerly waiting Marshmallow update for my HTC One ME keep updated my friend

  • I am from south india hyderabad.....didnt got update still.......i think u got some misleading news

  • Already started receiving in South. I'm frm karnataka

  • Through my sources I came to know that HTC devices which are lined up for marshmallow in India will receive it from 30 march 7:30pm.it is not 100% correct but my sources are mostly reliable.

  • To add to my comments on delayed updates in India, check out HTC_IN on twitter. They are accepting n apologizing for the delay. Sorry, if anybody is upset with this info. I'm one amongst you eagerly waiting for an update.

  • Anybody here, Lollipop came on of the feature i.e, guest users which HTC has removed in their ota. Can anyone confirm whether this feature is add or not in MM update. Thanks

  • It is still written testing for m8 gpe so u will have to wait until it shows rolling out to download it from HTC update tracker.but if u Don't wanna wait than download it from some other site.

  • That was only my opinion bcoz M8 GPE has already got updates long ago and that is not reflecting in HTC update tracker.

  • If the update doesn't make up to India than just go to htc update tracker and download it from there.as they will upload the update after q1.

  • Hello where are you from? Please share screenshots. Please capture it and share link.

  • can you please capture OTA and upload it and share link?

  • They Don't update it untill the update gets launched in all places.once everyone has received it they will update it with rolling out and even give link to download it.

  • India.

  • Next month 2st week

  • Can you share the update screenshot if you have

  • With my knowledge, the HTC India will have to tweak the software to suit the local carriers, which causes delay especially in India... I'm losing hopes that i'm nowhere close to the MM updates as of now....

  • Htc Update Tracker was last update in Nov 2015. So, can we still believe that we get updates in next 2 days..

  • When is marshmallow update for htc one e8 coming to india?any ETA as of now

  • Which country?

  • 29,30,31 march are last day of q1 so everyone will receive it till the end of this month.

  • Where u from?

  • It's already live. I received it today morning

  • Hey any idea about when the update is gonna be live for E8 in india?

  • No company in this world will be willing to support a device for an extended period with upgrades. There maybe bug fixes alone after a stipulated time, which is 2 years in case of HTC. The selling point for any product is software and by not giving continuous updates, any company would lose out on their revenue. Take Apple for instance, they deliberately slow down the performance of older devices with software upgrades so that people will buy their newer devices. If you are never happy with a software upgrade and find that your OEM doesn't support even bug fixes, you'd rather flash an older firmware that's a lot more stable. At least this part is much easier in case of Android than in iOS.

  • I think Android should be devided in two parts for OEM's base should be Aosp and upper layer can be sense or touchwiz etc. Base layer should be maintained and updated by google for all devices which has google affiliated. Upper layer OEM's can manage and can give performance packages or patches to customize it. And devices should be supported till hadware support it. It's pity on Google also to leave nexus 4 on 5.1.1 as it is buggy and gives sod.

  • This is not something new lollipop,kit Kat all took same amount of time like Marshmallow.if u go to htc update tracker they still showing that HTC one e8 update is on development,it means that HTC is aware that it hasn't got released for all places.so Don't worry as q1 still has 3 days left. And android N will be in my hands for beta testing soon,and according to requirements of it I think HTC one e8 will also get android n.(still a rumor)

  • This is not something new lollipop,kit Kat all took same amount of time like Marshmallow.if u go to htc update tracker they still showing that HTC one e8 update is on development,it means that HTC is aware that it hasn't got released for all places.Don't worry

  • Updates are rolled out in phases. No doubt that Lollipop degraded the phone's performance. E8 performed like a charm on KitKat. But what I fail to understand is the reason HTC hasn't released the update as yet in India. All regions have received Marshmallow on E8, but India hasn't. In fact the last rollout of the update was 10 days back and there hasn't been anything released after that. We maybe talking of Android N, but you need to give time to OEMs to release the update as they need to thoroughly test the software. You wouldn't want to use a buggy OS on your phone. But yes, given that the update is already available for this phone since March 6th, this extreme delay is just not justified.

  • No update till now God knows when HTC will release update. Due to memory leaks HTC's version of 5.0.2 on this device is very slow and becomes unusable over time. This is problem of Android that capable hardware forcefully becomes unusable due to lACK of software update for every device at the same time and at rollout. When people are laying their hand's on Android N, We are still waiting and counting days for marshmallow. IT'S PATHETIC in this way. Fruit company is certainly better in this case in giving updates. If HTC has supported creation of AOSP rom like sony by giving binaries I and many would have switched to stock AOSP.

  • Yes.

  • If I'm not wrong then you are akd100.plzzzz reply as I'm a big fan of ur.

  • We will see bro how this lucky trolls

  • have you got the update for indian version???

  • Nope. It will most likely be live tomorrow.

  • Still waiting for update ......anu one got .....?

  • Quick settings not collapsing after the toggle has always been there in sense. Nothing new in Marshmallow. Regarding the RAM, Linus Trovalds, the inventor of Linux said that any free memory is a waste of memory. Having 400MB of free memory is good enough. How much more do you expect? Most apps including your gallery, camera, email apps, messaging apps store their cache on your RAM and that's what enables you to access their data very fast. I get the same amount of RAM free on my Nexus 7 2013 on Marshmallow (given that it has the stock Google ROM) and it still runs smooth and no issues seen even while playing games on the tablet. Lollipop did decrease the performance of many devices including Nexus. So, E8 isn't an odd one for issues on lollipop. The mistake that HTC did was retaining sense 6 on lollipop for 2014 devices while giving the update. Sense 6 was good and suited for KitKat. Many users who have now received 6.0.1 have reported an improvement in the performance of the phone and the battery.

  • I was the beta tester of marshmallow,HTC is really obsessed about optimizing there phone to perform best,so the ram thing can be a issue(am not saying it doesn't exist)but it is surely not in every phone as I didn't faced any issue with ram while testing it.but the lockscreen thing can exist and can be solved with a small lock screen update so don't worry. Edit:-phone worked faster and smoother in marshmallow than in lollipop,battery also got increased in marshmallow.the update is really nice.

  • HI everybody.... I saw some posts and a video in Youtube about the big 6.0.1 update I found 2 major flaws.... 1st'ly: from lock screen if u swipe down to turn on/off wifi, data, bluetooth.. the notification window does not scroll back up even when u swipe up! need to confirm this! have'nt seen this on video but read in many a post here as well as other websites. 2nd'ly: the RAM management! saw a video, it showed it eats away 1.4GB of the RAM while only mere 400MB free RAM is available!!! that is shocking compared to Lollipop, where only 800-850MB of RAM was used and 1GB of RAM was available! This a major set back, if only 400MB of RAM is available in Marshmallow then, the life of the phone will keep decreasing the more we use the phone! like 6 months maximum! then the urge and need would arise to replace this phone! As of now with Lollipop, i do'nt feel any need or urge to replace the phone! but if RAM management is POOR like what the video shows, then very soon the Phone will have a break down very soon, like the old Samsung Galaxy s3 after Android 4.3 update! Video link --->

  • Not yet...hopefully this week

  • Anybody who has received marshmallow today?

  • I will review it soon within a week.

  • Thx

  • My friend saw it on facebook page of htc india.

  • Hey bro how do know does dates.....?

  • Okay I will check that out,thanks for informing though.

  • I am from Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Second is not bug. But first one is a serious bug. On locked screen, if you pull down notification toggle to turn wifi, bluetooth or mobile data ON or OFF, the notification screen won't go back or close even if you swipe it up.

  • Both things which u told aren't bug,they are new changes done in marshmallow,but if peeps Don't Like it than they will change it.

  • Where u from?

  • I found one bug in 6.0.1. On locked screen, if you pulled down the notification toggles, it won't go back. And another thing is, HTC Boomsound appears as a notification all the time when playing music through internal speakers. Before, in 5.0.2, only icon appears in notification. But in 6.0.1, it appears as a full notification like whatsapp or gmail. Anyone, please forward these 2 things to HTC.

  • According*

  • Acoordig to htc words it was supposed to get out by 26 and 27 but now I think it will get out on 29.

  • Any idea when rollout would happen in India.

  • Can u ellaborate the problem?

  • Officially it hasn't got out,but I have received it for beta testing.but Don't worry India will get it soon.

  • Not everyone has that issue.it was a cure if u encounter it.

  • I don't see any such issue. I've been using both the SIM slots and it's working seemlessly. :)

  • You said earlier it was going to be this weekend. If you have definite confirmed info about MM release date for the rest of the E8 variants please share it, otherwise don't speculate and project release dates based on your guessing. I'm one of those who haven't got the update yet and you got my hopes up for nothing when you claimed it would be released this weekend.

  • Yeah i am also waiting for it as memory leaks and slowness is killing this device.

  • I have the same problem my phone downloading first part of update about 110 mb and then it restarts and goes to recovery page

  • The update might hit only next week as no update is available as of today and tomorrow being a Sunday is doubtful. Early next week, the update should be live.

  • Hi , Have the same problem here ...can't install the update it's just taking me to android system recovery e3 Any help ....

  • I'm also having the same problem...please help

  • Hey bro do you got update ...and where are you from...?

  • This is a common issue in e8,if u are saying that the mobile sometime shows no SIM inserted.there can be more than 1 reason for this but the most common is loose SIM holder.when u insert ur SIM in card holder and insert it to mobile just rub ur finger on card holder with a little push. Hope it works.

  • I suppose the update has made it to Dubai and Turkey.enjoy marshmallow😃

  • i'm from Turkey, but the phone is bought from Dubai Freeshop. M8Sn single sim, Europe&Middle East variant.

  • UAE

  • 4g in e8 doesn't works for 2300 band,this is the band used in india,so no 4g won't be working in India on HTC one e8

  • Not yet. Many regions are yet to receive the update and should be out by this weekend.

  • no i didnt get it wait a week

  • May i ask if all htc e8 receive android 6??

  • Providing 4g on 2300 band depends upon htc,so marshmallow won't bring this thing.

  • Anyone knows if MM 6.0.1 allows 4G band 2300 hz?

  • Hi to all. I have htc one e8 (2.35.425.6) and recieved updatde androd 6.it is 2 part. first part is 110mb and i downlowd it but i can,t install it... help me please.

  • Copy all your personal data from phone to computer manually. And then factory reset it by going into "Settings-> Backup & Reset -> Factory Data Reset". It will delete everything from your phone. Then check for android update by going into "Settings->> About Phone". Marshmallow update increased my E8's battery life by 15-20%. Everything is smooth and fast. After installing all the 6.0.1 updates, Factory reset your E8 again, so that it deletes any files left by 5.0.2 software.

  • Factory reset your phone and then check for system update. If you have S-Off or you rooted the device, phone will lose its Official status. And hence, it will not receive the update. Because S-Off means phone's security is tampered.

  • Hi all, I think i might have the same problem as the one that i quote, and we need your help on this. I use S-on locked software and stock ROM. My device is HTC One E8 (MEC_DUGL). Current software number is 2.35.425.6. I got OTA update (2.35.425.9), but everytime i tried to update my phone using stock recovery it always show e error installing zip file '/cache/recovery/block.map' htc. So until now i cant update my device. Any solution on this? Thanks before

  • please help i recieve the 2.35.425.9, but i can't update to marsmallow

  • Thank you. Could you please send the link to download official htc android 2.33.720.6 ?

  • I bought my e8 from saudi arabia and now using in India.I'm still stuck at the kitkat version.My software number is 1.05.401.1..pls help

  • You will need to update your firmware to 2.33.720.6 which will allow you to update to android 6.0

  • I have received the marshmallow update. Software update:2.33.401.8 (61.19MB) part1/2 . when I tried to install it shows the message " we have determined phone may be running modified version of system software "even though the device is running official HTC android.

  • Have u received marshmallow update?because latest version for HTC one e8 is 2.33.720.6 for 5.0.2 android.

  • Any users with android version 5.0.2 , software number 2.33.401.6 ? I am unable to install the marshmallow update.

  • For those of u who doesn't want to risk restoring all ur app data after factory reset, you can try juz clearing the system cache through recovery. Did that after i played awhile with the new OS. I say it's more responsive now but it might be juz a placebo effect. ^^

  • Got the update today in 2 parts. Part 1 was about 260 MB and part 2 was 1.22 GB. after installing the phone lagged a bit so backed everything up and reset the phone. Now it works as smoothly as before. using HTC One E8 M8SX

  • how backup my HTC One e8 next update Android6?please help me

  • India hasn't received the update yet so just be calm.

  • Now installing the update 3.07.425.1 in Saudi Arabia. Part 1 was 110mb, part 2 is of 1.04gb. I got the update by manually checking it in "Settings-> About Phone" menu. Backup everything before installing updates. Factory reset your phone after installing the update. It will clear the trash files from the cache, left by Lollipop version.

  • has anybody received sense 7 because i received only android 6????

  • I have M8Sn variant of this phone bought from Dubai, got marshmallow update 2 days ago, I just realized I can no longer take photospheres with "default htc camera". Can anyone please confirm the status if it is the same? Android version: 6.0.1 HTC Sense: 7.0 Software: 3.07.401.1

  • I'm from Singapore. My E8 just updated to Android 6.0.1. Sense 7 software version 3.07.707.1

  • The latest version of HTC one e8 is 2.33.720.6,so if u Don't have this version I would suggest download it from internet,because it is possible that if u haven't updated ur phone to newest version than u won't see marshmallow.

  • India hasn't received the marshmallow ota update for HTC one e8 yet.so just wait for a week and we will be able to taste the marshmallow.

  • U can download the update from internet,just type this in google"download HTC one e8 5.0.2 lollipop ota".download it and installation instructions will be on site so make sure to read them carefully.

  • Yes..... Please check Settings - Mobile data - Sim 1 network - Network mode

  • Can you guys select 4g Lte on your devices.

  • It does support LTE.

  • Sorry its not working...4g only in my nexus 5

  • It looks like a wastage of money (Rs.33500 / 480$ ) after one year since it is not supporting 900MHz 3G band & LTE support ( 2300 MHz) . This is why HTC is not growing ( not understanding requirement of customers ) even though they have very good hardware .

  • Hello I have HTC-One (E8) and very happy with my handset. Currently I am facing a peculiar problem and need help ASAP. Here is my issue I am on a visit to USA and activated my international roaming with my service provided "Airtel" in India. While in transit,I managed to make & receive calls at London airport. But ever since I arrived in US, I am unable to connect my phone (make or receive calls). I contacted my service provider "Airtel"in India who informed me that the service is active and I should call HTC for guidance. Further in my HTC handset, I am unable to get mobile network setting, all I get is mobile network sharing which also does not work. Please helpmeet with this, what do I do to activate my phone?

  • How to disable call connect vibrate for outgoing calls. Help me

  • How is the camera clarity, I m planning yo buy it

  • very good .mobile is best

  • Hi Vivesh really!!! can you pl share your experience

  • but rear camera is 8mp.other specs are same as e8. is this phone has custom storage? yeah thats true that i cant use blinkfeed.

  • actually it's a Chinese model to be precise it's a china uni-com version.It has same specs as international variants..it can run 4g,3g,2g and is compatible with all international sim cards...i am using this variant for a year it's great..it has some minor drawbacks like china blink feed you cant access twitter and Facebook in blink feed...while you boot your mobile it will show uni-com boot image...but regarding specs ,performance,and quality they are equal with intl variants..13mp back,5mp front,2.5ghz,2gb ram,16gb internal,128gb external....

  • plese can anyone tell me about e8 which is also known as m8sw. I cant find its specs in google but cpu-z tells me its specs which is much like as e8. but m8sw has 8mp rear and 5mp front camera. other specs are mostly same as e8. I want to see specs which is given from htc. plese if any one find help me. I am confused. thanks

  • HTC one e8 dual sim not supported 4G network in india

  • Hi I did the same mistake but ater 3 day i restored my network back also added all LTE bands to sim 1. For this you have to root your device install jre and sdk in your laptop. Also install other soft from link below and follow the steps mentioned. Remember hard reset will not work.

  • How many regions is it available in?

  • Because 5.0.2 lollipop heats the device quickly and drains the battery in some regions. Outside weather also responsible for quick heating. Like in middle east, temperature goes 60 degrees celsius. So they didn't received. But in January, 6.0 marshmallow update is coming to E8. They can update to 6.0 directly. 6.0 is a major update after kitkat. It solves all the problems of lollipop and brings some new features, especially Doze for battery saving.

  • But i heard some people say they didn't receive it
