True.. But Htc is a weird company when it comes to pricing its phones..

For ex: Htc sensation xe was released last yr, But its stil priced at 32k.

Which i find stupid.. Hope Htc doesn't follows da same trend for 1x.. :rolleyes:
[HTC One X] devvfata1ity:
well by ur logic apple is the most stupid company then..ip4 was launched two years back and it still costs 34k. Samsung is stupid too i guess, since note was launched last yr n its still 32-33k.

Dude if u like the phone, then just get it. Theres no point getting caught up in the endless waiting cycle. That way there will always be better/more vfm phones round the corner.
[HTC One X] veerm:
I do agree on the pricing part, almost. You have to consider demand/supply as well as competition. Also, rupee devaluation did not help past few months. On that note, I know for fact that the mobile prices will actually rise in near future (for the first time in long time). Specially if you are looking for current models. So if you are seriously considering buying within next month, you better off buying right away OR wait for at least 3-4 months IMHO.
[HTC One X] kryptoner:
We'll get a good resale price because they never decrease their prices
[HTC One X] SagarDesai:
Dude trust me this phone is worth every penny you will spend on it !!! HTC has been on a constant move to get rid of all the issues and three updates till now proves that they are not gonna leave their flagship HOX so easily...if you really wanna buy it this is the time mate!!Go for it \m/...trust me am on 1.29 rite now and I aint facing even a single issue after updates #richeud ;)..Be rest assured of HTC quality and get a beast asap :-)

Rooting

Hi All,

I am not sure if this is the right thread to post, but since this is for india HTC one X forum and I am in india, I think thats okay. I bought HTC one X last week and its a wonderful phone. The two things I am not happy bout it though :

a) Battery back up - Not very convincing, after a medium usage, my battery lasts for around 8 to 10 hours after full recharge. I dont know if thats the best on One X.

b) Regional Fonts - The other big thing Im surprised at is not supporting the indian fonts. The much earlier version of android on Samsung S2 supports kannada fonts where as the latest ICS on HTC one x doesnt ! Isnt it surprising ? I read on the net that my phone has to be rooted and fonts should be copied to phone. but rooting voids the warranty rt ? and how risky is to root the phone ? Will I be able to get back to normal factory setting even If I pay the service charges ? Can someone help me pls ?? All I want is copy kannada fonts to my phone , SOMEONE HELP !
[HTC One X] flame10:
Congrats on your purchase, believe me you won't regret your purchase in the long run.

a) battery backup is going to get better gradually.. try to use the battery below 10% before putting it up to charge again, to make the battery better faster.

b) I get Bengali fonts when I try to check Vodafone balances, very much properly, not sure why you are not getting kannada.
[HTC One X] veerm:
Battery will get better gradually. What worked great for me was...let the battery drain out altogether -> phone will shutdown -> Charge it for at least 8-10 hours (do not turn on the phone) -> unplug -> Turn on the Phone -> Enjoy long lasting battery

Also, use auto brightness and keep sync accounts and connectivity options to minimum

update 1.29

Any news about the 1.29 update for India if its coming at all ???
[HTC One X] CatainVenky:
Guys, what bout the font issue and rooting issue I mentioned ?? Can anyone help me on that ?
[HTC One X] veerm:
Rooting is easy and fairly safe as long as you read and follow the instructions to the "T". BUT having said that, there is always a small chance that something can go wrong. In most such cases you can revert it back to stock factory settings (you should have backed up), So its not that bad. Very rarely though you do get bricked and you end up with most expensive paper weight you ever bought. ONLY YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE.

As far as warranty goes, you do loose it as soon as you use HTCDev for unlocking your bootloader. And i don't think you can renew it with any service charges.

Now for Fonts, there may not be a way to install them w/o rooting your phone. When/if I find a way will definitely let you know.

Hope this helps. Cheers.
[HTC One X] hapticc:
i emailed them today will update all as soon as i get any info. moreover i buzzed them of usb otg not working and wifi direct also isnt working
[HTC One X] CatainVenky:
Thanks @veerm, that's a good piece of info, now what's this unlocking the bootloader ? I see there is an option on htcdev.com for it , if I follow and do it, it's same as rooting my phone or is it a prerequisite for rooting ?? Thanks again !
[HTC One X] taha198:
It's a prerequisite for rooting as it let you flash insecure boot.img. ;)
[HTC One X] rubenswing:
Not the entire warranty...If any fault is there in regard to H/W then HTC does give you a replacement but if it is established that the fault is due to S/W then you lose your warranty in totality...and if you are ready to pay then, they will repair.
[HTC One X] jasmeet.jb:
Ya I think u r right! Rupee depreciation is a real pain in da a** :mad:

N may be da prices will increase, it won't decrease for sure.. I gotta buy dis phone nw.. Thnx for ur help btw.. :)

Dude i was not worried bout the software prob.. I was a bit skeptical abt hardware issues like screen flex, cracking sound n stuff like dat.. I hav seen da youtube video n other thread abt problems n bugs.. Dats da reason i was hoping to get recent batch of SH25.. But i guess dat much risk i hav to take.. :)
[HTC One X] hiemanshu:
Is it worth getting the HOX right now or wait a little? I am still deciding between the S3 and HOX, but HOX looks better, so wondering if its worth getting one!

HOX rocks. Which you prefer stylish and powerful phone or crappy and old style phones.

I wonder how you are on the 1.29 update, has it been released for Indian users?? And when was it released and where can one find the RUU for this update, the Indian update that is.

You too can be on the latest 1.29 base. Just unlock and flash a latest custom rom.
[HTC One X] rubenswing:
Yep that is something that can be done. I had unlocked and then re locked the bootloader. I was thinking you are on the Indian 1.29 update
[HTC One X] SagarDesai:
Mine is still not unlocked!!! I got it from Dubai and hence got 1.29.415.11 Update!!

Sorry frgt to mention dat..my bad!!
[HTC One X] veerm:
If you read the fine print on HTCDev.com you will see that you completely VOID your warranty.

Here is the part of disclaimer from HTC:

"Please note that changing your bootloader can cause significant issues with your device and once you have unlocked your device, you have agreed to the disclaimer that states a change in warranty status such that in the event you render your device unusable, you are responsible for the recovery of your device, whether by repair or by other means."

"Our devices have been designed with our hardware and software specifications in mind and unlocking the bootloader will change the software and may cause unexpected side effects. It is impossible for HTC to ensure the proper functioning of your device after this. In the worst case scenario, it is possible that your device may be physically damaged due to overheating or the behavior of your device might be altered including, but not limited to, hearing aid compatibility (HAC) and specific absorption rate (SAR) values.

Some content on your device may also be invalidated and cannot be accessed any more because of invalid DRM security keys. This includes content that you may have purchased through a 3rd party vendor and through HTC. Furthermore, although you will still be able to receive updates to your device via FOTA (“firmware over the air”), we do not guarantee that updating your device via FOTA will not render your device unusable. Please understand that you will not be able to return your device to the original state and going forward your device may not be held covered under the warranty for all claims resulting from the unlocking of the bootloader. HTC bears no responsibility if your device is no longer usable afterwards."

BUT, i do agree with you that they are not practicing that rule strictly. And they will PROBABLY be customer friendly and help as much as possible.

Congrats...enjoy your HOX

Cheers
[HTC One X] rubenswing:
By using HTCdev, many users want to (or already have) rooted their phones but have to agreed to void their warranty to do so. The idea is not to become aggressive with HTC or demand any action to resolve the fault, the aim is simply to get them to replace the handsets if, AND ONLY IF, the issue turns out to be a hardware problem...and as said by me in my earlier post if HTC determines that the fault is due to the software being installed then you can kiss your warranty *completely* goodbye ;)

HTC India at their Best (SARCASM)

I wrote to HTC India (facebook) couple of days ago. Here is the converasation:

Hey HTC India,

Its about time you give us 1.29 for HTC One X. Rest of the world got it 2-3 weeks ago. This has became a pattern where India is left for last as if you don't care about customers in India. Kindly do not treat Indians as third class citizens.

Could you at least give us time frame for availability and change log of upcoming fixes.

Thanks,

A VERY loyal HTC customer since days of HTC Touch (But loosing patience now)

HTC India: HI Mr. *****, we are coming up with the update really soon! Please stay tuned, and we really thank you for your patience.

That's really bad of HTC they are giving the same crappy answer everytime we ask this question.....but I think it won't be released anytime soon....may even take upto a month for them...:(....they are also becoming like Samsung....given that ics was released for the s2 only now....nearly 1 month later than other international markets :(
[HTC One X] shree.cse:
What else they can do, the people who answered don't bother about updates. Just their job is to make a reply to our mails. I hate this service in India
[HTC One X] shetyeashish:
This is really sad... bloody we are paying the full price of buying the handset and we are getting the update at the last...

i wonder why these company treat us like 3rd world nation???? take classic example of SGS3... they have started the booking in India.. but u will get the delivery only after its been launch in developed country...

even smaller countries are getting preference over India.. sad....

If we truly rely on the official updates, we can't use HTC or Samsung in India. That's why we are here on XDA to grab and share.
[HTC One X] hiemanshu:
So untrue, for Note, India was the first one to get the OTA for ICS, I know it because I have a note as well.
[HTC One X] rn9215:
Sorry but didnt want to turn this thread into a samsung vs htc thread.....but what can i do my S2 is only receiving official ICS from yesterday.....now thats crappy as the s2 was a best selling model for samsung.....and they ignored India totally.......and for ICS in note it was released on may 24th...i dont know when it was released in other countries so cant comment abt that!

But still S2 to has sold much more numbers in India than the note so its a foolish move!:mad:

Does 1.28 really make a differnce to the battery life

I just got my HOX yesterday :D

First thing I did was to update to 1.28 and I don't think it really made a difference

Just wanted to ask you guys if your battery life was increased after updating to 1.28

Oh and also, will the 1.29 update improve the battery life ?
[HTC One X] rubenswing:
congrats on the new HOX and battery life will increase in a week or so with usage.... however since you purchased a new HOX can u tell me when you boot the HOX is there an 'x' after the HTC One logo during boot... can u pls check that out...:)

Here's What I found..

Ok.. Here's what I found..

the version that I have got in my rooted one x....

- more updated and latest than what the Europeans have.. or I think so since the custom roms like Ex0dized and android hd revolution that use v1.29.401.11 whereas we have v1.29.720.11..

and here what I found is that the settings for "word Prediction and Spell Correction" are highlighted out... so those settings cannot be changed.. I wonder why did they do that.. it's silly.. maybe a bug.. coz as they say, no software is perfect.. :P

here is is..

Other Changes I found :

- I can now enable the GPU rendering (It's not new and was expected)

Overall Verdict :

Some good and some bad, the graphic distortion is completely rooted out (for me) and the only disappointment is the dictionary settings blocked out..

battery life?? No idea.. will update soon.

1) Had 2 GB space free before and 6 GB after update

2) For sure more free RAM

3) UI feels smoother. The small delays and lags have been ironed out.

@IllUMINATUz - the prediction preferences being grayed out is tied to weather you have enabled Trace keyboard or not. If trace keyboard is enabled then the prediction preferences are grayed else they are not
