HTC one ATT to Verizon?

Hi. A friend of mine is selling their HTC one phone but is connected to ATT. Is it possible to switch the phone from ATT to Verizon?

No. The radio hardware is incompatible.

  • Using an AT&T HTC One M8 on Verizon account?

    I won a new HTC One M8 at an AT&T open house and would like to use it on my Verizon account -- but the Verizon rep said they would not activate a non-Verizon phone?  Is there a way to get around this? When I install my current Verizon SIM card I get an error message reading SIM could not be provisioned MM#2

    There isn't the CDMA radios in the AT&T model. Even if the hardware is compatible, the IMEI number isn't in Verizon Wireless database of allowed devices.

  • When will the Verizon HTC One (M8) finally get the Extreme Power Saving Mode software update?

    Other carriers (AT&T, Sprint) already have it, but Verizon is taking forever apparently.
    When will Verizon customers be able to download and use this new mode?
    Thanks!

    I recently bought an HTC One m8 from Verizon, and like many other customers the Extreme Power-saving Feature was one of my keys factors to deciding to buy. I was very disappointed to learn after the fact that Verizon had not included, and has no intention to include the feature in the future. (Mentioned in other threads in the forum). I've read the argument made that Verizon never advertised the feature and never said it would be included with their version of the phone, but they also never went out of the way to warn perspective buyers that the feature, which is part of the m8 phone on other carriers and marketed by HTC as a part of their phone wouldn't be included. When people are researching phones before they decide what to get they read what features the manufacturer(s) have designed and implemented in those phones, not search to find all the things the carrier may have stripped from the phone.
    It's impractical and offensive to tell a customer that its his/her responsibility every time they buy a phone from them to dig deep into website forums and look for what they decided to remove from it that the manufacturer had built, and advertised to be in their phone. This is the type of thing that is bad PR for Verizon, and something that will make customers go to other carriers. I don't want to offend some of the nice Verizon employees who want to  help their customers and simply don't have the power to correct the issue themselves, but its in Verizon's best interest to either fix their network to work with this feature, or find/hire someone else who will. Doing it soon before the issue escalates and news of Verizon's statement to do nothing to correct the issue for their HTC One m8 customers spreads like wildfire and burns them.
    I hope someone at Verizon doesn't let the rest of the company go on ignoring the issue and steps up to find a  way to enable Extreme Power Saving Mode on the Verizon Network. Right now the impression many people have is something along the lines of: now that you've bought a phone from us, and signed up for a contract with us we don't care what you want and think.
    In the meantime it would be a good idea to enable the option in the phone with a popup message when enabled that reads something along the lines of: Verizon has concluded that in some cases Extreme Power Saving Mode can cause network issues. If you experience network issues please disable extreme power saving mode and return to one of the  other power modes. Verizon will continue to research the issue, and will institute a fix if/when a solution is found.

  • Why wont verizon have a version of the HTC One?

    I know this has been talked about...and that most everyone out there is all hyped up about the next samsung galaxy, but as soon as the HTC one came out i was glued to it... until they announced the carriers. No Verizon version. WTH?? Im telling you BIG RED...you have two choices now that my contract is almost up. You either a) announce some stupidly named droid device that is very much akin to this HTC one...(maybe with a better battery)...or b)i will switch to sprint and say...bu-bye

    verizon dont like carrying phones that other carriers carry. the galaxy s 3 and note 2 are exceptions because the market share for those devices are big so they would lose big time money not to carry them.. 
    verizon prefer manufacturers to make exclusive verizon phones EX: HTC DROID DNA... SAMSUNG DROID CHARGE MOTOROLA DROID LINES.
    samsung put its foot down last year by making the SGS III identical across all US carriers. verizon had no choice but to swallow the pill.  good for samsung now HTC its trying to follow samsung steps. verizon feels that they wont lose much money by not carrying the htc one
    NOW HERE IS THE REASON WHY VERIZON DECIDED NOT TO CARRY HTC ONE.
    Imagine verizon advertising the HTC ONE in a TV AD ..... why would a new customer get and HTC ONE from verizon when that same new customers can get it from t mobile and save big time money over the course of 2 years??
    verizon only like phones they can tout as exclusive.
    hopefully the HTC DROID DNA is the last droid phone we will ever see.
    If manufactures start selling the same device year after year across all carriers... Carriers like verizon will lose its stranglehold in the industry. THIS IS WHAT WE WANT.

  • Is my HTC One M7 unlocked?

    I have an HTC One M7 from verizon. I want to switch to TMobile. I haven't done any modification to the phone. my question is, is the phone already unlocked? or do i have to unlock it first? Also, how can i check if it is unlocked with out another sim? i want to make sure it is unlocked before i even buy the new sim card

        I can help provide clarification, noize313.
    All of our 4G devices come pre unlocked, however they are made to work optimally on the Verizon network and you may not have access to all services on other networks.
    It is unfortunate that you are considering leaving Verizon. May I ask why that might be? I'd much rather help turn things around and allow you to use your device on the great network it was built for!
    Thank you,

  • Htc one m7 lollipop when Verizon?

    When are you going to approve the Lollipop update for the M7 HTC One ????

    Verizon doesn't care about timely updates, they want tyopush you to buy a new phone and make sure they totally lock everything down so that you can't enjoy the phone you paid for. Verizon sucks and I am really missing T-Mobile.

  • The HTC One, It's Coming To Verizon!...

    According to VZW @VZWnews on Twitter. The HTC One will be out later this summer.

    Can't get anything out of Verizon customer service at the moment.  Did an online chat with one rep - he couldn't confirm the phone because it wasn't on the website.  Linked him to the article on BGR, and he said he'd check on a release date.  "Late August... according to Google."
    Seriously?  They've "confirmed" and haven't spread the news to the reps who are clearly going to get hit with requests for dates, and the reps turn to Google?  That's shameful.

  • Why doesn't the Verizon Version of the HTC ONE (M9) have Wifi Calling?

    I have been with sprint for 11 years and recently upgraded my HTC One (M7) to the HTC One (M9). went to jamaica and was able to keep in touch with everyone free of charge with wifi calling. Once i returned i decided to leave sprint and come to Verizon. I realized today they dont have wifi calling on this phone. Why is that. isn't it CDMA like sprint

    They're planning on releasing it in mid-2015:
    Verizon Wireless (NYSE: VZ) plans to introduce Wi-Fi calling in the middle of next year but does not see an urgent need for it, according to Verizon Communications CFO Fran Shammo.
    Speaking at the Bank of America Merrill Lynch Media, Communications and Entertainment Conference, Shammo noted that Apple's (NASDAQ: AAPL) new iPhone 6 and 6 Plus support Wi-Fi calling. He said Verizon needs to do "some technological work in our network to make it available," and it should come around the middle of next year.
    However, he said Wi-Fi calling was "never a top priority" for Verizon. "We built our voice platform so extensively [that] there was never a need for us to tell our customers, 'Oh, our network is not good enough so you need to go on Wi-Fi to complete your call.'"
    He noted that when a call goes onto a Wi-Fi network, it's difficult for Verizon to guarantee the quality of service on that call, which is what Verizon has built its brand reputation on. That's a major reason Verizon waited so long to launch Voice over LTE service--it wanted to make sure it had adequate coverage that could replicate the voice experience of calls on its 3G CDMA network. Verizon has just started rolling out VoLTE service.
    Other carriers are moving ahead with Wi-Fi calling plans. Ralph de la Vega, CEO of AT&T's Mobile & Business Solutions Group,  said last week that AT&T will launch Wi-Fi calling in 2015 but that the carrier will use it only as a complement to Voice over LTE or 3G-based calling. "We don't have this burning desire" to use it to enhance coverage, he said.
    The comments were notable in light of T-Mobile US' (NYSE:TMUS) announcement this week that heavily emphasized Wi-Fi calling and using personal routers to create Wi-Fi coverage areas in subscribers' homes. T-Mobile is the first and only U.S. carrier to support Wi-Fi calling on the new iPhone. Sprint (NYSE: S) also launched a Wi-Fi calling service for its Android smartphones this past February.
    In terms of other hot topics, Shammo said Verizon would not be leasing phones, as Sprint is doing with its "iPhone for life" offering with the new iPhones. Under that program, individual customers will pay $20 a month for a 16 GB iPhone 6, instead of $30 under normal financing. At the end of 24 months, they can trade in their iPhone for a new iPhone. The iPhone 6 Plus will cost $25 per month under this program instead of $35 under normal financing. If a customer wants an iPhone with more internal storage they will pay more per month. The leasing program applies to families as well.
    Shammo said Verizon offers its Edge handset-financing and early-upgrade program but that the "majority" of Verizon customers are still choosing subsidized handsets paired with two-year contracts. In contrast, AT&T said sales through its similar Next program represented around 50 percent of all smartphone sales in the second quarter.
    Shammo also touched on whether Verizon might sell its wireless-tower assets, saying the company remains open to it. In the past, doing a deal "always came down to price and terms and conditions," which he said have become more favorable. He said that Verizon's network is experiencing high demand and that the company would like to retain the flexibility to add towers or add network gear to existing towers. "It's an option for us," he said. "We continue to look at it, and we'll see what happens."
    Last week at a separate investor conference, Verizon Communciations CEO Lowell McAdam also said the company would be open to selling some of its towers if the price was right. "Those deals are coming to us a little more now, and if an opportunity presented itself to increase shareholder value" Verizon would be interested in pursuing it, McAdam said, according to Reuters. McAdam said Verizon received interest in its towers two years ago, but the bids weren't high enough.

  • The HTC One M8 is a lemon and Verizon refuses to work with us.

    We are now awaiting shipment of a FOURTH HTC One M8. First purchased on release day and returned within a week per store suggestion due to roaming bug (fixed with software update later). Second phone randomly turns off, restarts, freezes and doesn't respond. Verizon made us warranty replace this one as it was just past the 14 day mark of the initial purchase (we weren't thrilled). Now the third phone exhibits same behavior as second. Was supposed to get call from Verizon support manager yesterday following up on their insisting that an app was causing it, but she never called like she assured she would. We had removed ALL downloaded apps and still had phone turn off randomly. Verizon now refuses to do anything but send us a reconditioned phone as another replacement. This is the first and last HTC device we will ever try and most likely will begin looking for another carrier as Verizon clearly doesn't care about solving it's customers problems. If they expect me to pay full price for a reconditioned phone they're a joke. I'm awaiting a phone call from someone in management within 24-48 hours to discuss this all further.
    Do yourself a favor and avoid this garbage phone!

    "You have a warranty which states replaced with certified like new and not brand new."
    This would be understandable and acceptable if it was for the fact that since day 1 we've been given broken phones.I refuse to pay full price for something that has been broken since the start.
    I've spoken with HTC and received the "this issue hasn't been reported" statement and it pretty much went nowhere. One option was to send the device to HTC and wait for them to figure it out and send it back, but with no backup phone (turned in for credits) to use and my wife using this for work that's not a viable option.

  • Why is it that the Verizon version of the new HTC One M8 has no battery saver extreme ? Its been on Sprint for over two weeks now !

    The Battery Saver Extreme for the new HTC One Mi8 was announced by both Verizon and HTC, yet it is still not available on Verizon, has been on Sprint phones for over two weeks. According to HTC , Verizon has simply not released the necessary software update.
    Not at all good public relations when many people bought this phone with this feature being one of main reasons for the purchase !

    And a disabled download booster also. And the FM Radio is disabled. Just google for research.
    T-Mobile has the options. from what I am reading.
    Good Luck

  • Will Verizon release Lollipop for HTC One M7?

    Will Verizon release Lollipop for HTC One M7, and if so, any ideas when? Thanks!

    Check with HTC. They are one in charge of coding for that device not Verizon Wireless.

  • Would the Unlocked Verizon HTC One M8 work with GSM Bands globally/?

    If i buy a HTC One M8 phone and then pay all the installments and finally get the unlocking code. One phone is unlocked, then is is possible that CDMA Sim Card of Verizon be replaced with a SIM card of any GSM operator globally

    as of last year all Verizon phones are unlocked of course if they were manufactured  starting last year. the HTC one m8 is sold unlocked however it may not work on all LTE bands Verizon operates on 1700F and 700C

  • Defective HTC One and TERRIBLE Service from Verizon

    Monday evening my phone stopped charging and started going into car mode whenever I plugged the phone in. It was getting close to closing time so I headed over to a local Verizon store. I was in Boston and away from my awesome independently owned Verizon store so of course I proceeded to wait for 25 minutes for someone to help me. Eventually someone helped me and he was actually quite helpful. He did a soft reset and the phone seemed okay. He told me that if I had the issue again to just call up and they'd ship me a warranty replacement. Two days later the phone began going into dock mode and the screen was flickering between dock mode and whatever I was trying to do. I headed over to the same Verizon store because I was unable to call the warranty center on my defective device. When I got there, after waiting yet again, I dealt with an extremely rude and exceptionally useless employee. I told him that I was there because I was unable to call Verizon on my phone yet after he couldn't go through the warranty process on his ipad because the HTC One is 'too new' he handed me a phone number(which I already had) and said there was nothing more he could do for me. Frustrated I left to call Verizon. Luckily my phone felt like working now and the employee I dealt with insisted I do a hard reset before they send me a warranty replacement even though everyone else had ensured me it'd be an easy process. Eventually I was able to do the reset later that day and the phone was okay for a day, but then the issues reappeared. Last night I called Verizon and they told me that I won't receive my replacement until MONDAY. My phone is on my family's family plan, but I'm honestly considering leaving Verizon personally after this and hopefully I'll be able to sway them as well. We've been Verizon Wireless customers for 10+ years as well as FIOS and business customers for a long time and Verizon's handling of this situation was beyond poor. To make matters worse, now that I'll be waiting four days over the weekend for a replacement, the One seems to be getting worse - this morning it took a three soft resets, one hard reset, and two more soft resets to get it to charge. Good luck with this phone guys.
