| The HTC ONE (M7) Thread
So the phone has been out for a little bit over a week now.
I picked one up a couple days ago and love the amazing screen and build quality.
Still getting used to the Sense 5.0 thing. My last HTC was the Nexus One and after that I was mostly using Samsung phones with ASOP custom roms.
Need to shoot more with the camera but I don't really like the more washed out/less saturated pictures that most HTC phones take.
Speakers are crazy loud and clear with minimal distortion.
Unlocked bootloader, rooted and currently running the TrickDroid 5.2.1 ROM.
Also, I want to know how I can change the DPI because I'm feeling that I'm wasting the 1080p screen with huge icons. Usually I just modify the build.prop file to change the DPI but I've read that it doesn't work on the HTC ONE.
Let's hear from the other HTC ONE owners about this phone 
BTW, here are some pictures I took yesterday of my precious.

Lookin good. It must be something in Sense that's blocking the DPI settings. You might also wanna flash the custom kernel that enables the HTC logo to become a 3rd capacitive key.

Just got the phone last night. Absolutely love the design and build but wish it was a bit shorter I got small hands so it's kind of annoying trying to reach the power button.
I got a noob question. I've seen a guy on youtube swipe on an empty space on the lock screen to unlock the phone but I can't do it this way. Is it something I have to enable? Im forced to unlock from the lock widget or weather widget

Take a look at this my friend: [KERNEL|05|05|13][teaMSeven_kernel|v3.9.6|VC|BLINKBUTTONS|H2W|LINARO-o3|FULL-OTG] - xda-developers
I'm running this kernal and it's a must have for me now. I don't really touch the power button anymore, except for when I need to reboot to recovery.
You can have different capacitive buttons to turn on/off the screen. It also gives you the option to use the HTC logo as a button.

BTW, I manage to drop my HTC ONE on the 2nd day of owning it and dented a corner. I was fucking pissed because I NEVER drop my phones. OCD as I am I can't live with it so I managed to snatch another BNIB one and sold the dented phone. LOL. Now I'm back in game

I'm on the fence on the Poetic flipbook. Looks real nice and I like the rubbery backing.
But it doesn't have a cutout on the front flap so you have to flip open every time to take phone calls.
The nilkin flipcase I had on my Note 2 before had cutouts in the flap so I could talk with the flap closed.

A quick question for all you phone experts. Will the Developer's version of this phone work with Rogers/Fido LTE?? I am planning to get the 64GB version.
