Sir, it is unticked. That's for the clock at the top right corner of the status bar and it doesn't show 24 hour clock. And it never did.

As far as I know there's no way to change the hours of the weather app.

Sorry bud but you are 'not so' wrong. Do you have your location properly sorted in date & time ?

Ok so it seems we were wrong :p

In the OP about the weather hours I do say the "Hourly" section.

Anyway... really weird and stupid that it's only available in military time. I don't understand that. Oversight from HTC?

Probably just an oversight ...

But I suspect this is the answer

The U.S. National Weather Service base all data and product times on the UTC standard. The meteorological community uses this time standard which is the recommended international time standard to be used taking observations for exchange and for defining the time for forecast products world-wide. The agreements were established by Nations in the World Meteorological Organization and the International Civil Aviation Organization forums.

The time expressed in surface observations is the time the observation is completed. In order to allow comparison of surface conditions at the same time throughout the world, the groups regulating the collection of hydrometeorological data have established a standard time for taking observations. These observations will have times observed within the 10 minutes preceding the UTC standard time. Hence surface observations for meteorological use have timestamps reflecting 0000, 0300, 0600, 0900, 1200, 1500, 1800, 2100 UTC. Observations taken for use by aviation interests are taken at least once an hour. Some countries specify that aviation observations which may be used beyond the local area will be taken every 30 minutes. For these 30 minute observations, the standard time for taking them will vary from country to country.

Routine forecasts are transmitted according to an international standard and are valid for a specific period of time. Within a bulletin containing forecasts the time of preparation, time of transmission and valid period are expressed. These times [the times of preparation, transmission and the forecast valid time] are expressed in UTC. For instance, most forecasts for airports are prepared and transmitted 30 minutes prior to the beginning of the valid period. Hence, the time in the bulletin heading will be the standard time, usually ending in minutes of zero (00), and the first time within the forecast will be the preparation time and will end in 30, representing 30 minutes after the hour. A four-digit group expressing the valid time of the forecast in even hours will also be included. A forecast ending at midnight will see 24 as the hour and a forecast beginning at midnight will use 00 for the hour.


So the 24 hour clock is a meteorological standard.
 
I'm curious as to what everyone thinks of the Boom Sound. I thought it would be louder than it is but it seems like the audio is just richer sounding and better than my iPhone 5. I was hoping for louder based on the videos I see but maybe is defective?

Is you HTC One louder than your iPhone 5 or just better sounding?

Yeah its not really about being 'loud' its more about the overall depth of sound and the quality of it. The fact that it is able to produce decent middle and lower end in comparison to everything else out there.

Compared to the S4 it's actually quite striking. You can hear more detail in the sound (you hear more instrument and finer detailing sounds) compared to the generally high pitch / tinny sound in the competition.
 
Any idea when the new 1.29.XXX.X updates are coming to the states? It's widely available OTA in Europe.

But every other weather app allows the hourly forecast to have 1 PM, 2 PM, etc.

I say it's an oversight more than anything.

This is accurate.

And it's loud.
 
I think I've settled on getting the One instead of the S4. Does it feel weird having the home button on the right?

Give it a week..... 3 weeks of mine and when I went to the S4 I kept going for the power button on top when I wanted to put it in standby and kept pressing menu key when I wanted to go back...

For me it makes more logical sense to have back button on the left, basically on the side where its arrow is pointing, and hence home on the right.

I meant not having it in the middle :p but yes I'm sure like most things I'll get used to it with time.

Yes. You'll get used to it because you have no choice.

It's awkward and you have to crank your thumbs in such a weird way to tap it.

I still think you're making the right choice though.
