[Download] Lineage OS 14.1 for HTC One M7

The HTC One M7 was a standalone classic which succeeded the iconic One X series. In fact, the one M7 was HTC’s way of setting itself aside from the competition. With its premium metal body, the One M7 literally set the standard for its Android counterparts. And HTC has maintained that standard ever since.

The HTC One M7 was also one of the first smartphones to introduce the ultra pixel camera. But due to its poor performance, the One M7’s camera was demoted. That being said, ultra pixel sensors are slowly trying to make a comeback.

And now with Lineage OS 14.1, this classic favorite of many can be customized to your liking. You’ll also be able to gain more performance than what the device could offer out of the box.

Since this is an official release of Lineage OS, the ROM can be expected to be used as a daily driver, but it’s preferably safer to flash the Nightly builds. If you’re the daring type and are dying to find out what’s new with Lineage then by all means go ahead with the experimental builds.
