One thing I am noticing from last month when a question asked that does HTC M10 has dual SIM version no one say nothing. So this means dual SIM model is just rumour and thats why now a days I am hating HTC. Hope someone will reply.

AnonD-535945, 11 May 2016thank you for the detailed explanation im glad i posted . ... morein short
aNDROID IS AN OPEN SOURCE OPERATING SYSTEM, SO AFTER ROOTING AND FLASHING CUSTOM RECOVERY U CAN INSTALL CUSTOM ANDROID ON UR MOBILE. FOR EXAMPLE I HAD S3, NOTE 3, NOTE 4 and because touchwiz sucked big time from start so i used to install cyanogen mod or aosp or miui roms on my samsung.
but on my htc m8 ( my younger brother took it from me) i installed all (including Samsung touchwiz rom) one by one but nothing was superior to htc sense ui, so i finally unrooted it and installed factory version.

another use of rooting if u dont want to install custom android ,is that u can uninstall bloatware system apps, and apps u dont want to use.
still another use is that u can backup data of user plus system apps also , this includes games and their progress too( free or paid) , so when u change phone just restore data on next phone. and all will be right where u left it on previous phone or even new android ( backup all on one android install custom android and restore apps data)

even then after rooting some apps get extra functionality. like closing background applications to increase ram.
look i can go on for hours. just go to xda developers forum.
that spy stuff the other guy was telling is rare , may be .01% and if u r in isi or cia or fbi that someone is really after u. just use good softwares on ur phone and u will be fine. dont install pop up softwares etc.

AnonD-535945, 11 May 2016thank you for the detailed explanation im glad i posted . ... morethat is iOS which needs jailbreaking to play paid games and softwares. on android even brand new unrooted phone can do that so rooting absolutely is not done for playing pirated games and software.
look just google "uses of rooting a phone"
or go to forums. xda-developer. com website

Guys give a try to htc for their ui.
Htc is so so better than other.
I have a desire 816 and its only competetive phones launched at the same time were xperia t2 ultra and grand 2.
My desire 816 after marshmallow have a superb battery backup. Fluid as new. And now have the option to increase memory.
Grand 2 didnt even get lollipop.
I got marshmallow in midrange even before many flagships of other companies phones.
That too a perfect update.
Sony and samsung lags a lot.
Even having same processor they lag a lot.

HTC 10 has no different version in same name, but Samsung make this for confused people. S7 Edge has 3 versions: G935 (USA); G935F (Global); G935FD (Southeast Asia). Your link provides the cheapest version's rate. So, don't confused people or don't spread rumor.

Anonymous, 10 May 2016Leaving this here ! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Czofc... moreHahaha. Are you mad or something like that? The link doesn't tell about camera.
This link shows how the battery drains fast. The first 2 hours web surfing HTC 10 remain 81% battery where S7 remain 75% (S7 consumed 6% more battery in 2 hours). The next 2 hours web browsing HTC 10 remains 56% battery where S7 remains 48% ( S7 consumed 8% more battery in next 2 hours). understand? The link nothing says about camera or other features.

I disagree that the HTC 10's screen is crap. In my opinion, it is great! Better than any other HTC screen so far. It does work well in sunlight if you keep the screen brightness high. If your screen brightness setting is low, it is hard to see...but that is common sense.

AnonD-535945, 11 May 2016I came here to get honest opinions on the htc 10 and what i... moreRooting is getting full access to the operating system .. it becomes like a PC you can install uninstall anything on it and even change how the system look (like changing the home button place for example , or what a button does etc . also it allows you to run programs on it that you code ,run emulators for consoles etc , and to run pirated copies of game and programs etc ...

it is very risky however because now it is open , so a hacker can access it very easy or any program on it if it has a spy program can spy on you , record convrsations , and send it to otther servers even record what you say at home by enabling the mic on !!! without the need of turning the screen on etc ... or take pics and send them , also can spy on your location or steal passwords and bank information , VERY EASY . so it is not recommended unless you dont care .

people root just to play pirated games and programs without the need of paying fof them , thats the main reason .. other are excuses IMO. all android software are in torrent for free even $50 xpensive ones ... thats why people root dont believe their excuses. and criminals put spy programs inside those pirated programs so unless you are an expert to know if a program is clean or infected with spyin program , never root.

as for the HTC 10 , it is very nice but the screen is garbage compared to samsung . also the S7 Edge wins in battery life , however the edge is hard to use if you accedently press on the edges while using it thats why is impossible to use without a case .

S7 and HTC 10 are equal in performance but the screen of HHTC 10 sucks outdoors .

AnonD-535945, 11 May 2016I came here to get honest opinions on the htc 10 and what i... moreRooting means gaining root access to your device. When you take your phone out of the box, while there are plenty of settings you can tweak, you can only alter what the manufacturer and carrier allows you to. By gaining root access you can modify the device's software on the very deepest level. It takes a bit of hacking (some devices more than others), it voids your warranty, and there's a small chance that you could completely break your phone forever. However, some people take that risk so they can enjoy the benefits of rooting.

Rooting offers these abilities:

1. Install OS (operating system) updates when you want to without having to wait for a release from your carrier. However, you have to go find and download that update that someone puts online to use. (Risky)

2. Change phone settings that normal users can't change because the manufacturer does not want you to tinker with setting that deeply. HTC is one of the few manufacturers that allows for "developer options" without having to root your phone and it does not void your warranty.

3. Not having to use the "skin" provided by the manufacturer. For example, if you root a Samsung phone and hate their Touchwiz "skin", you can install any skin you want into the phone. However, this can and often does disable some features of the phone. Camera software can stop working, etc etc.

4. Get rid of APPS you don't want. Some carriers and manufacturers will preinstall their own apps that they don't allow you to remove. This is called "bloat". The HTC 10 has done a FANTASTIC job of getting rid of bloat. It uses mainly only essential Google apps and ALL of them can be removed without rooting.

There are other reasons to root a phone that mainly tweak the performance by messing with system settings, but for the day to day average user, you do not need to root.

If you want a phone that allows you to do 90% of the things rooting allows you to without having to root, then buy the HTC 10.

I came here to get honest opinions on the htc 10 and what ive seen so far are people trying to convince each other of their choice. Phones these days are almost like politics and religion . i dont know about anyone else but I don't discuss politics nor religion.

any way I love the samsung line and never bought anything else. But ended up with a htc m7. I hated it at first , but then i learned more and fell in love with it. Im hard on phones break at least 2 a year min . from drops and things. that phone lasted 3 years and never quit, never ran out of storage, and much more.

I wont purchase any other line of htc but this one. I know what i need in a phone and that is what makes the winner between the 2 in my eyes. Anyhow im off track. Can someone please explain what rooting is ? in layman terms plz. I dont know what all that technical stuff means. Also is it something i should do on an htc 10? And how to get it?

Finally got the HTC 10 ,the phone is cool, battery back up is better compared to my old M7 it has enough juice for me to carry on till late night without charging.No lagging no heating issue's observed.The phone looks good on the back but the front view is very bland looks like a low end samsung duos especially the silver color.
