Any body here has the link to Indian Kernels (HTC_038)?

I just got my HTC One back from RMA.. SIM issue. I got S-OFF and unlocked boot loader & then started off with flashing base ROM for Indian HTC One: http://www.htc1guru.com/2013/11/guru-reset-3-63-707-4-stock-rom/ I then updated to HBOOT 1.56 with OS:4.19.401.8 & RADIO: 4A.23.32.3263.28. And finally the Bulletproof kernal, to get HTC logo as option key and swipe to wake/sleep features. Here are the details:

First thing I noticed was that my Wifi signal went pretty bad. I mean, even when the phone is like 5 ft away from the router, I get between 2 and 3 bars. And when I'm in the next room, on the bed which is hardly 15 ft away and in a straight path to the router with just a wooden door in between, I get absolutely no signal at all!

I'm not sure if its coz of the hboot and radio upgrade or a bug in this ROM. But I end up wasting precious 3G MBs when I use the phone in the bed :eek:
Any body here know what could be the issue here? I ve been using the wifi on this phone in my bed for over a yr without issues, before the RMA. Could it be a hardware issue?

Anyways, then I tried the ViperOne 4.3.0 (4.06.1540.3) ROM. It was fantastic and everything was great .. but the wifi issues were still there and weirdly, all the kernels in the Venom tweaks, were inaccessible.

I was told by sneakyghost to first flash the firmware 4.06.1540.2 and hboot 1.56 from base 1540.3 to get you up to latest. I tried but all the 1s from his thread failed - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2316726 .. even with the SuperCID. Only the original unmodified Base 4.19.401.8 FULL Firmware worked and even after that when I flashed Viper ROM, the kernels remained inaccessible.

I also tried flashing Bulletproof & ElementalX kernals before and after flashing Viper ROM. ElementalX always failed (even after clearning cache and trying other troubleshooting). I either got a boot loop or weird fractals on boot or just no boot. Bulletproof worked before Viper flash but when I flashed Viper ROM, it overwrote the kernal or whatever coz non of the features of bulletproof kernal worked after flashing Viper ROM. And flashing bulletproof after Viper ROM, got me the same results as with ElememtalX.. i.e. boot loop or weird fractals on boot or just no boot. Though it didn't say 'failed' on completion (same as in ElementalX)

So, I was wondering if anyone here has a link to all the kernals compatible with Indian HTC One (HTC_038)?

Sorry for the long post .. hope every1 doesn't tl;dr :silly:

I srsly need to fix my wifi and get Viper ROM with logo as option and swipe to wake/sleep features.

    Guys just an ADVICE

    If you get any HTC Phone and feel that there are some defects in it...for example if you say dead pixel or body construction issues with HTC One you can DEMAND a DoA* ( Defect on Arrival) certificate from HTC Service centre within 14 days of purchase with no questions asked.

    How does DoA works.
    1. Once issued by HTC customer care or service centre people , one needs to go down to the store where he got it from along with the box and complete set of accessories and DoA certificate and hand it over to the store guy and take other SEALED UNIT of same product or any any other product of SAME VALUE

    No one tells this thing...however, this is the policy ...so guys dont worry go for HTC one if any problem go for DoA certificate as per the service policies of HTC.


    hope this helped....

    cheers

    It's not HTC but the distributor and retailers who are charging... DP is an indicative figure... They are all making the most of the shortage... Simple economics...

    Continuing from the above post...

    I asked my dealer yesterday. Known him for ages and his mobile store is a rented shop owned by my friend. He told me to wait 10 days. Said the same thing happened with S4 when launched, despite the supplies being in massive numbers.

    This is a tactic used by local branch offices and regional distributors (who are not technocrats at all). The mobile retailer hardly gets any margin these days. Such launches allows them to make a quick buck in the first 10 days when over enthusiastic people like us will pay over the odds to get our hands on the device first. That way, the branch/distributor does not have to give extra schemes to the retailers and they also settle their previous accounts by such favours.

    Sad but true, this is a rampant practice in mobile and consumer electronics industry. There is MRP, DP, and then MOP. Consumer should get material at Market Operative Price. That way he gets a decent price and the retailer gets a 'survival' margin. For practical purposes, most material is sold between DP and MOP, which too is fair enough. Like has been pointed out time and again, despite what's printed - the new MRP is Rs.42,990, the DP is Rs.40,990, and MOP, which is mostly not written (purely my guess) should be around, Rs.39,500. And hence a price of Rs.39,900 hits the sweet spot.

    Sites like Snapdeal, Indiatimes are not actual traders per se, and outsource supply of goods to other vendors, but subsidise from their marketing budgets to draw consumers in the hope they'd sell them profitable products in the future. Hence Rs.38,500 is their price, where they end up subsidising by about a Rs.1,000 below MOP. But then we all know more the people involved, more the chances of confusion and time delays.

    Everyone is a grown up here. So I request people to stop blindly enquiring about prices. Don't join the mass hysteria and you won't be a hysteric. It's that simple.

    Am a big fan of the device and getting one but am a bigger fan of not being held ransom or being blackmailed. I'll wait for 7 more days.

    Just my two cents. Not really inviting a debate or a discussion on this, only my opinion. Feel free to agree or disagree but let's not pollute the thread. If people are unhappy about what I've written, please feel free to PM me. I'll gladly delete the contents of this post.

    And yes, for people who want the experience right now, well, a small premium won't hurt them.

    Got my Dev Edition !!

    Today I have received my ONE Dev Edition, it's such a beautiful device that you can't move your eyes from it. Crafted with passion. Feels so smooth in hands. No gaps, perfect finish. It shows how hard work HTC did to bring it to perfection.
