Sadly the only carrier that would share Sprints version would be Verizon and they aren't getting it. Because of the radio differences Sprint's HTC one will always have a separate dev community.The HTC One is on my shortlist of what I will upgrade to, but if Sprint touches the design of this phone I will not buy it. I messed up by buying the EVO LTE. This thing has no wide sweeping community support like the Galaxy S3 does. Less than a couple months after getting my EVO LTE interest in the forums was gone and updates are few and far between (very disappointing). Lesson learned and next time I will buy a cross carrier widely adopted phone that is not "Sprint-ified"
I gave mine to my son and added a line to get Note 2 like you said not enough support for it from devsThe HTC One is on my shortlist of what I will upgrade to, but if Sprint touches the design of this phone I will not buy it.

I say no also. I think one of HTCs biggest problems is they dilute their brand recognition by putting different phones on different carriers. They need to unify their image like the other manufacturers. Obviously their current strategy isn't working.

Who knows... Maybe Sprint will get that kickstand back in there eh? That might be an acceptable customizing by Sprint.
I'd like to think that. But you think that's final? There's got to be a Sprint logo there somewhere, right?
Lets hope HTC follows along the same lines that Sammy did with the S3. Aside from carrier related bloatware they all pretty much remained the same across the board well cough ** Verizon ** cough.. as usual had to lock the boot loader & throw more bloat on their end.
Or better yet, offer a case with a kickstand? I'd pay good money for that.
