Lemmy seems like a nice person, even helping with bootloader unlocking and stuff

It still smells like corporate data collecting nonsense in here. And I think I know why.

Spoiler alert: it's WhatsApp.

WE DID IT!!

I remember always wanting an HTC One M8 because of the dual front facing speakers.

Awesome, friendly reminder for everyone who has HTC phones to get the unlock codes ASAP. They could shutdown their servers any day.

Also you don't have to use them. I just have a few unlock codes for phones backed up, just in case I want to custom rom them in the future.

One of the best Android phones ever made. Just seeing this photo made me happy and Nostalgic

I never got to try the m8 but the htc one m7 was my favorite phone of all time. Such a unique and simple all metal design. Incredible speakers for the time and most importantly it fit perfect in my hand. I really wish they was still around as a phone manufacturer.

I had that phone, also with Lineage. It was great. :)

I'm curious what android version is it?

Don't mean to highjack topic. But Thank You Steve, for watching my dog while I was on vacation.

I need to get my old M8! One of my fave phone!

Uhm, I highly recommend running WhatsCrap in the Work profile. Unlock it using Shelter.

Also, bad news maybe but that phone is insecure as fu*k. It didnt get updates forever and this means it will also not be private anymore if you get hacked.

LineageOS cant provide kernel updates or Firmware updates, thats simply how SOC devices work...

But good learning practice! Installing GrapheneOS is a breeze compared to LineageOS though hahahaa, I resized the partition of a Nokia phone once, to get a higher Android LineageOS in there.

Sucks they are killing off 3g in a lot of places this year which is taking out many devices of this generation

I loved that phone. I had the red version. Front facing speakers was fantastic!

How does it work? Have you also tried the AOT for all your apps to help with performance.

Very cool. I loved the m7 and m8, front facing speakers desperately need a comeback

I'm about to buy a Galaxy S4 and do the same.

Ah, the wonderful M8. Loved that phone, used one for over a year.

I was the only person in my company capable of stripping them down for repair. Really not built to come apart
