          It's a shame they are struggling so much.

          The only hope they have is to stop wasting time an resources on the multiple handsets they keep releasing (look at how many handsets have come out since the ONE.
          http://www.gsmarena.com/htc-phones-45.php
          With more on the way.

          They then need to work closer with Google on keeping on top of the releases (they are a little ahead of Samsung this time round but still slow overall.
          Eg a key market Europe is still waiting whereas the US where there dont have a strong foothold is now more upto date. Unless this is a new strategy, so Europe will get 4.4 :)

          Then they need to keep more life in their handsets (like samsungs S2, which went on an on and really made the big impact in the market for samsung.

          The one-S or even the one=x/x+ could/should have been those devices.

          Their management team need to grow some better negotiation balls with their suppliers so they don't get caught out all the time.

          Or they need to understand the market to get ahead of the game and do things when demands are different and release when there is less competition.

          That all said I shouldn't have to type all this they should know this as a billion dollar company .

                Maybe their One is good but the price it carries, in India atleast, remains unjustifiable. It's expensive than every other smartphone except Note 3 and iPhone 5s. S4, G2, Z1 all are cheaper than it by a big margin. What was running in their heads? No advts, no billboards to support the higher price either. How can a company with nil marketing budget could price its products so high is beyond me. The pricing of Desire 600 too proves htc still hasn't learned it's lesson and why no one prefers it's phones anymore.

                            Moreover the One has a very good audio quality, awesome build and design.

                            So please stop saying HTC isn't innovating, they are innovation, they have always been, Samsung isn't, apple no longer either.

                            HTC just lack a new CEO, new marketing, well a whole new team.

                            I hope this company will live, I love their phones (I owned many other brands...)

                                  People were still more sceptical of Samsung than HTC. There are more HTC users who switched to Samsung devices compared to Samsung users to HTC devices. Otherwise the sales would have proven it.

                                  HTC has been good looking device since the beginning, but that is just not enough and that is why they still failing. Their build quality weren't as good as how they look. Although HTC One is one of their greatest flagship device as of now, there are more defective (gaps between the aluminium) units compared to Galaxy S4 that has cheap plastic shell.
