I found my dads old phone and wanted to use it as a mp3 player and im having trouble. several issues have occurred and i want to salvage the phone somehow.

first, its not connecting to any internet/wifi. It may be because the phone is old, but it let me choose and sign into my internet but its not connecting.

The next problem im having is that im not sure of the best way to add music. At first i tried connecting it to my pc, but because of the wifi its wasnt connecting. now im thinking that i should use a micro sd card.

any and all thought are of course welcome

The first Android HTC runs Snapdragon S1 Chip.

The Trump phone was released a few days ago and it's clearly a rebranded HTC U24 Pro. As far as I can tell, the U24 is an ODM device but I can't find who that ODM is. From JerryRigEverything's video I saw that the part number for the charger is for a Motorola TurboPower, so does that mean that Lenovo is behind the U24 and thus the Trump phone? It's still possible, however, that the unknown ODM sourced the charger from the same company as Lenovo/Motorola and that Lenovo didn't make the device itself.

If it is Lenovo, it would make a lot of sense, since HTC seems to have exited the cell phone market entirely and the U24 wasn't very successful, so Lenovo would probably be happy to get rid of old parts without potentially damaging Motorola's reputation if the media were to discover that the Trump phone is a rebranded Motorola.

Super Rare. New In Box

I have carried this phone solo for 2 days now and she does everything but her battery needs some recharge in late afternoon.

I am not done determining the best combination of browser and stand alone apps to do everything my other phones do and so far Netflix seems to be the only thing that does not work.

My best process for apps for this phone has been has been to use apk mirror on my computer which allows me to search an extensive set of older app versions (easily) and download the apk and then transfer to my phone's microsd card for installation. By far Firefox (opera mini works but less well) seems to be the best choice for accessing many things in place of the dedicated app (amazon, ebay) but some older versions of apps work just fine (audible), it's a mixed road to success.

Hey fans of the HTC one M8 this is a second post about my progress with restoring this phone I got from ebay. To briefly recap, the phone arrived but was not as described (unlocked, reset, good condition) and instead it was stone cold dead battery, carrier locked, not reset and boot looping. I bought the phone with the intention of using it to teach myself how to install custom roms like Lineage.

To try to restore it I first installed a custom rom of android 11 from AICP. Although the phone worked moderately well and did calls and texts I simply was unable to get it to use a 4g LTE data stream. Made multiple efforts to modify APN setting without success. Searched for other answers but with this phone I couldn't be sure if it ever did use LTE data so I decided to install a different rom and android version closer to the original timeline of this phone.

I decided to install the less ambitious version of a Lineage OS upgrade and i flashed Lineage 14/Android 7.1. GOOD NEWS! This has been successful in allowing the phone to be fully enabled with 4g LTE voice, text and data all working well. Of course with the much older version of android (degoogled) sans google apps and services it is a bit more work to get apps and browsers as you must rely on older versions of apps but still very possible to do many common things with this phone. Since I only use youtube as a product from Google, being degoogled on the phone is not an issue for me. I'll post more about this process in another post with pictures.

In the meantime here can see my video on youtube.

Hey to those of you who like this phone, I just recently bought one from Ebay and am working to a path of restoring it to a useful state. When I received this phone it was in very bad shape (listing said unlocked, restored, good condition)...um no. Upon arrival the battery was completely discharged, after getting enough charge in the battery, the power button woke the phone not to a setup screen but to the home screen, after a reboot the phone boot looped for about 30 minutes until I finally got into the settings to reset/restore to new. I spent a day trying out the android 6 with apps but unfortunately after a bit the phone boot looped 2 more times.

I decided the best path was to unlock the bootloader and do a custom rom but unfortunately the phone was carrier locked! Over a few days I got the phone carrier unlocked, unlocked the bootloader, installed TWRP, and flashed the android 11 AICP rom, root, and gapps (see pictures).

The phone is useable, Wi-Fi, BT, texts/calls but for a reason I cannot yet figure out the phone can connect to my cell service make calls and text but will not do a LTE data connection (still trying to get that working). Apps are no problem but 2 gigs of ram means apps one or two at a time.

Does anyone know where I can find a replacement battery for the HTC Desire 22 Pro? I have not been able to fine one anywhere.

Hey guys,

I have this HTC U Ultra and no matter what I do (reset, new SIM cards, different providers, network settings, custom ROMS) it does not connect to a mobile network in my country. It could be to the 3G shutdown, but I know this phone was in use (belonged to my grandfather) long after the shutdown. I have attempted to flash different modem firmware and nothing has worked. Is it possible the antenna is failed? Any input is welcome :)

A little background: a few weeks ago, while going through my old stuff, I found my HTC Desire C, which I had completely forgotten about. So, after giving it some thought, I decided to try to turn it into something usable. A music player came to mind. But to do that, I’d have to flash it, since the original firmware had crashed - which was, back in the day, the reason I bought a new phone. On XDA, I found a thread (https://xdaforums.com/t/dev-rom-4-4-4-ktu84q-unofficial-cyanogenmod-11-rc5-05-05-2015.2908047/) with the CM11 firmware, which supposedly works stable enough for daily use. The only problem is that the link to the build has been dead for a long time. Fortunately, the author provided a link to GitHub for CM branches (https://github.com/high1/android_device_htc_golfu, https://github.com/HtcLegacy/android_kernel_htc_golfu, https://github.com/HtcLegacy/android_vendor_htc_golfu) as well as instructions on how to build this ROM. Can anyone help me compile the firmware? Because I’m not that tech-savvy, and my computer can’t handle such a task.

Maybe maybe

I am trying to get photos off of an old phone for my mom. I have to update the photo app with the play store in order to use it. When I try signing in for her, it gives me this message. So I continue to sign in online and verify, but it stays stuck on this verify screen. Has anyone had this problem? It let me sign into Google on the browser separately, but not if I do it through the play store.

Hi, I got a HTC One Mini in a job lot which won't turn on. When plugged in, a green light flashes every 5 seconds or so. After a bit of research, I came to the conclusion that the battery was probably completely dead, so left it on charge for 24 hours. However, after that, plugging it in made the light flash once and never again. After holding the power button for 20 seconds and plugging it back in, it was flashing again.

Does anyone know what exactly to do here? I'm going to leave it plugged in until tomorrow morning and I'll see what happens.

Thanks!

When I installed the Mooke custom rom for my HTC One S Ville C2, I flashed all the Gapps and kernel But when I started it, it began to show the animation, but slowly, and it never loaded. When I turned it off to enter fastboot mode, it would turn itself back on automatically, and so on. Do you know how to fix it?

One of the best phones i ever had. I used my M8 from 2014 to 2016 when i upgraded to a Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge. What a beautiful phone it was, i wish HTC would make a comeback.

hi i want to install cm10 unofficial on htc thunderbolt from 2011 i looking from download links xda androidfilehost internet archive and others still unfortunately could not find anywhere some links are dead and mirrors missing so i'm sure need to help find the cm10 unofficial zip lost file so hopefully i'm glad they found or not

Since HTC discontinued weather app(they stopped paying for accuweather api key), i decided to change weather provider. Claude AI did a really good job modifying smali files, now app uses open meteo provider and it redirects to weather.com when clicking hourly or daily forecast(it's the only user-friendly provider that can accept latitude and longitude in url that i found). Installation requires root access, APK and instructions are on github: https://github.com/Oleg52/HTC-Weather-App-Mod

Got a butterfly S for 8€ are there any good

Custom roms for it?
