New Press render of HTC One M8 appears in Blue
We really need to count on how many colors and versions are the Taiwanese people preparing their new 2014 flagship smartphone in. We already have the handset in Gunmetal Gray, Glacial Silver and Amber Gold in the markets, where we first saw the smartphone in real 24 Carat Gold in the hands of T-Mobiles CEO, followed by leaked Press render of the M8 in Red flavor for Verizon Wireless, then HTC and Sprint announced the Harman Kardon Edition of One 2014, next was another leak in a girly touch of Pink shade and lately we also heard about HTCs Limited Edition S.H.I.E.L.D One M8 promotional campaign for United States and Canada.
Giving us no big surprise, as we have seen the manufacturer doing the same with their 2013 front runner M7, where today we have a new Press picture coming all the way from the red hands of evleaks, Twitter, posting the phone in an impending Blue color option. There is nothing much mentioned in their latest tweet from the tipster along with this new Press rendered image, than seeing the same smartphone in a Blue paint job also effecting the BlinkFeed. There is still no reads on when the newly dressed phones will arrive, but it doesnt seems to be a long wait from now.

HTC announces M8 Ace Vogue or One E8
Remember the HTCs budget -friendly handset with high-end internals that leaked a few days back, that was dubbed as HTC M8 Ace? Well, that exact phone from the Taiwanese multinational smartphone manufacturer is now official in the name of HTC One E8.
This newly announced phone from firm will be made out of plastics or polycarbonate body, unlike the original HTC One M8s aluminium-clad. Which indeed will save you and the manufacturer some money when affording a smartphone like this in the consumer markets. The phone is slightly curvier, thicker or fatter than its big brother, where now the One E8 measures 9.85 millimeters in thickness, maintaining the same width and height dimensions of the companys flagship handsets design, also weighing much lighter at only 145 grams. Unfortunately, the brand new device from HTC will lack the duo-set of primary camera on the back (as seen from the above and below pictures), where this time the maker fits in a 13 megapixels sensor on the back with single-LED flash accompanied.

The HTC One E8 smartphone will be out in three color options, first scheduled to be available in China for about 2800 Chinese Yuan, which is around 448 United States Dollars. That is definitely cheaper than an $699 price tagged, unlocked HTC One 2014 (M8). The One E8 is said to make its way outside the Chinese shores by the starting of the next month, with a similar price, not going higher than the $500 mark.

So for the internals, the smartphone will feature a Quad-Core Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 processor, running at 2.5GHz, five-inches screen of Full High Definition screen of 1080p resolution display, 16 gigabytes of internal storage (expandable via microSD card slot) two gigabytes of Random Access Memory, 13 megapixels primary camera on board with LED flash light and a five megapixels secondary camera on the front, both coming with BSI sensor and ability to capture videos at Full HD 1080p resolution. For connectivity highlights, the unit has got dual-SIM 4G LTE network connections, both with active Quad-Band GSM radios.

HTC Car Kit for HTC One short review
To be completely honest, Im not a fan of original phone accessories. They are very expensive and this high price is very often overrated. But this time I made an exception and bought original HTC car holder. And I do not regret that decision.
Typical car holder from "nobody knows where this company comes from" costs from $10 to $30, while HTC Car Kit is available for about $50 - $70. This is 3-7 times more expensive, but I believe this is well spent money. Let me explain why.
- Mounting
HTC Car Kit can be mounted in two ways. You can fasten in to the front window of your car, or you can use additional adhesive disk, that comes in the box and attach it on your dashboard. Normally you cant attach regular and cheap car kit on your dashboard because of rough surface of the dashboard. This is a very nice solution, giving you opportunity to choose whether you want your Car Kit to be attached to the window, or to the dashboard without covering up your view. Also, its very easy to mount the entire Car Kit and there is no risk of breaking anything.- Build quality
Its just perfect. This is one of the biggest positive aspects of having original accessories. There are no crack sounds, the used plastic is very solid and it looks aesthetic. The swivel neck is made of aluminium and you can rotate is in every direction. There are also no plastic hooks you can break accidentally. The resistance of the aluminium neck is very good. The cradle holds the device securely and firmly, so you dont need to be afraid that your device will fall out, unlike with the cheaper solutions I had in the past. However, without the cable attached in the cradle the device looses its stability (because nothing "holds" it inside the cradle) and can fall out. It is a problem, since not every driver want to drive with a cable attached all the time.
- Features
HTC devices comes with preloaded software you can run while driving in the car. With HTC Car Kit this application can be launched automatically every time you connect your device to the holder. Its nothing unique in the cradle itself, but it is the attached USB cable that does the trick. The micro USB part has a special terminal with a clips. Once your HTC One will detect it, HTC Car mode application will be launched. However, this feature can be of course turned off in settings. You cant have this feature working correctly with non-HTC Car Kit.- Equipment
Like every other original HTC accessory, the HTC Car Kit comes in a very nice box, where you can find the holder itself (made of plastic cradle, aluminium neck and plastic base with wheel and suction pad tab), micro-USB cable with a special terminal, adhesive disk, very nice looking car charger and short, multi-language user guide. The cable is very long, which I find as a drawback, because it has 2m, while 1m should be perfectly enough. Probably I will have to bind the cable and it wont look very cool. Replacing it with a shorter cable is not an option because of missing terminal in regular micro-USB cables.
- General conclusion
HTC Car Kit is worth its price. It looks way better then any regular car holder and I can surely say it is a premium product for a premium device, just like HTC One is. Its easy to use, easy to clean and it gives you additional control over your device with HTC Car mode application. Also, you can mount it however you like - on the window or on the dashboard. If you own HTC One and you are a car driver, I strongly recommend you buying this Car Kit.
+ build quality
+ design
+ alternative mounting methods
+ HTC device detection
+ comes together with micro-USB cable and car charger
+ swivel neck adjustable in every direction
- price (it is worth the price, but for some it sill might be too much)
- too long micro-USB cable (should be 1m instead of 2m)
- the device isnt secured well if the cable is not attached to the cradle

Stock system dumps for HTC One HTC One X
Last two days were very exciting for HTC community, especially for HTC One X users (Android 4.2.2 with HTC Sense 5.0 update described here). However, there is always one problem when it comes to HTC updates - no RUUs (ROM Update Utility) officially available do download for regular users (HTC One Developer Edition and Google Edition seems to be the only exceptions). Why RUU is that important to us?
These executable (.exe) files for MS Windows are installers of complete firmware, including for example system or data partitions. Not having latest RUU means:
- users using custom ROMs cant download latest OTA from HTC,
- developers have no system dumps they can work with.
Ad. 1) If you want to download and flash latest OTA, your device must have completely stock system partition and recovery. Every OTA update is checking MD5 of each file on system partition to ensure .apk patch can be applied. If even one of 1000 files wont match, OTA update installation will fail. In this case you need to flash the latest official update you can find (even one year old) and later download official OTA updates.
Ad. 2) There are few workarounds, however none of them is as good as having a RUU:
- adb pull /system in custom recovery mode*
- cp /system /data/media/dump in custom recovery mode*
- nandroid backup
- boot partition can be taken from inside firmware.zip inside OTA .zip package or it can be dumped using dd if= of=/data/media/boot.img
* adb pull, cp or dd commands must be executed from custom recovery mode, otherwise system dump will be missing few important files or these files will have 0kb size. Also, keep in mind that adb features are heavily limited on stock un-rooted device. In case of dd command, root access (su) is needed to make such operation.
Thats why I created my own stock system dumps (as a custom recovery .zip packages) for both HTC One and HTC One X. I believe this can save a lot of time for many XDA users and developers.
HTC One thread - HTC One *STOCK* ROM | 2.24.401.8 | Jelly Bean | HTC Sense 5
HTC One X thread - HTC One X *STOCK* ROM | 4.18.401.2 | Jelly Bean | HTC Sense 5.0
