yes the resale value of iphone is very good in the india market. However samsung's are good too. I got 25k for my SGS2 which was 4-4.5 months used.

I really dont get it why the indian public has so bad perception about HTC. My colleagues are saying..."arre HTC le liya woh bhi itna mehnga...kharab ho jata hai HTC k phones...Samsung lena chahiye tha...." and all such crap as that.

Also one of colleagues asked me " which is the best phone in the range of 21-22k? I said get the HTC sensation, eyes closed...but he was like nahi nahi HTC nahi lena hai...ultimately he settled for the lumia 800.....go figure

Indian buyers are still pretty immature and I'm not surprised by the reaction.

The thing is, HTC is a smartphone-only brand and Indians (in general) have only just started getting into smartphones. They don't know HTC well like they know Samsung or Nokia. Some idiot said HTC phones are bad and the word spreads. I actually recommended the Lumia 800 to one of my female friends as Android would be too much for her needs but someone told her its a bad phone and she should go for the Galaxy Ace instead! Go figure!!! I won't let that happen but that's how stupid people are.

It'll take a year to get delivered. :p Put down 1k more and get it from a physical store!

I have just updated price here when i found it is better price. I prefer to pay not 1k, but 5k, i never purchase device from online store.
[HTC One X] ShyamSasi:
When I called once to Airtel customer service for my HTC WildFire they told me they don't support China phone that how much people know about HTC. People who ask me I recommend Sony and HTC. As for the resale value I think Nokia got the best. If your selling the device try Suleka I got 16,000 for my Xperia Arc (10 months old) the current price is 21K
[HTC One X] android_master:
I will tell you one more incident,now one of my friend went to 2-3 mobile shops today to try the demo of HTC One X & he was almost sure of buying One X{he is using iPhone 4 32GB and was getting good value for it} but all three of those stores were not having the demo piece and further they told my friend that it's stupid to consider HTC, you will not get more than Rs 20,000 after a month{for a Rs 35,500 phone}:eek:

As a result he decided not to go for it.
[HTC One X] IllUMINATUz:
whaa?? he is planning to sell it after buying it or what??

thats insane!! :(

btw

Im purchasing my One X from the local store (Reliance Digital or Big C Mobiles) at 36100 (approx.) with insurance free.. :D

is it worth it?? pl. clarify.. im tense and excited at the same time!!!
[HTC One X] android_master:
buy it if you are sure that you will not be going for Samsung Galaxy SIII{announcement may be next month and as usual Samsung smartphones arrives at the quickest pace in India},,i am saying this because after investing Rs 36,000 you don't want to sell it after 1 month and then going for another one because unfortunately you will not be getting much for HTC if you will sell your One X
[HTC One X] IllUMINATUz:
no.. I won't be selling my dear HTC.. I always wanted to own HTC.. feels professional.. btw good hardware and I DAMN HATE Samsung's CHEAP Plastic build.. sucks.. so ill stick with the build quality of HTC.. btw is there anything that I must look out for before I purchase this phone today?? please advise..
[HTC One X] android_master:
Then no problem,buy it phone is a perfect machine
[HTC One X] luvingguy:
Bro, I am using this phone for past one week and really happy with its performance now. The battery will boost up after twice or thrice recharge. One more stuff get the taiwanese one and not the one build in china.Its written on the box.. The taiwan one has less problems as for now. White one as made in taiwan..
[HTC One X] raghupro:
I really don't understand the fuss about HTC. It manufactures the best build apart from motorola. But if you consider looks + build I would rate HTC to be better than motorola and it's eons ahead of Samsung.

HTC had a really bad 2011, they stopped innovating and all phones looked the same. The battery life was a bummer as well.

But stop being brand fans and start reading the reviews of One X. It is a clear cut winner in almost every damn review. If you need a good phone then just go for it blindly!

And resale value being bad? I already tried selling my phone, I am being offered 33K for a phone on which I spent 34.4K. Is that bad? I know it's not even a week old but the resale value depends on the product as well not just the brand.

I would never prefer the cheap build of Samsung to HTC. The performance of Samsung phones might be better than HTC but after spending a fortune on top class Smartphone I need to have that satisfaction of holding a device worthy enough in my hand. But Samsung phones have such plasticy build that it never feels like a premium device.

But anyways, here is another deal.

Ebay India - Deal of the week - HTC One X for Rs. 34,899
[HTC One X] android_master:
My question is what will be the resale value of this phone after say 2 months of use in June, are you confident that we can expect anywhere around 28,000-30,000 for this phone

Also what about the battery life you are getting now
[HTC One X] IllUMINATUz:
even I was thinking of the same.. white one and made in Taiwan..
[HTC One X] devvfata1ity:
I have the Taiwan made White model. Its build is as close to perfect as possible. So far I havent encountered any glitches. Every app, every widget works just fine.

Below is a brief review of the One X by me. If you have time plz check it out and post your comments.

Which ROMs are Running On your Phone People?
[HTC One X] exynoss:
Why there is poor battery backup in aosp roms if compare to stock roms.

I feel so much difference.
[HTC One X] vin4yak:
That's because aosp roms consume more Battery than sense roms... The ui.. It's more rich than sense... However, if you compare aosp roms with fully bloated stock sense rom.. You would surely feel that Aosp is better... :p

-Sent from my IceCold One X!
[HTC One X] exynoss:
What :eek: Rofl aosp ui is heavier then sense :eek::p:D:confused::banghead::screwy::o:what::eek:
[HTC One X] vin4yak:
I said rich... not heavy... Rich as in the UI comes to life in AOSP if you compare it with sense, Sense is on the duller side.. Besides that, AOSP uses more background resources like polly... and then again, there's the kernel which surely gives sense users the edge...

Try ARHD with stock kernel and then use a custom kernel like neo or XM, you will find that custom sense kernels give better battery life... ;)

So if you take all these factors into consideration, sense > aosp when it comes to battery life...

Finally, it all comes down to the user, if you set the right kernel tweaks, it's easy to get max battery life from an AOSP rom as well! I've achieved 34 hours with 4 hours screen on time with ICJ + neo :D
[HTC One X] deathgame:
Because we dont have optimized kernel for aosp...htc heavily optimized the kernel for sense
[HTC One X] razer1224:
Is 160-180Mb heavy for you

You gotta be kidding me :D:p

Guys.. A Lil help here..

Confused between nexus 4 and htc one X..

Please help me decide...
[HTC One X] kkapoorr:
Nesux 4: Faster Updates, full vanilla android, more support over the years by Google.

One X: Better Camera, better UI(imo), better built, and better battery(subjective)

Sent from my Note II
[HTC One X] coolzarjun:
Thats what's confusing me...

Wether to go for better hardware.. Hox

Or

Better software.. Nexus 4

Confused :/
[HTC One X] razer1224:
My Suggestion

Nexus 4
[HTC One X] coolzarjun:
Any specific reason bro..?
[HTC One X] razer1224:
If your a Flashaholic

Then Nexus 4 is yours

Nexus 4 is a prime phone for development and updates
[HTC One X] vin4yak:
It's a entirely upto you to decide... HOX is a great device and developers will surely keep it updated to the latest releases. But you will need to root your phone and install custom roms if you want to enjoy the latest releases.

Nexus 4's build quality isn't that great... it will surely crackle once you drop it a few times... However, the software support will be huge!

Personally, I would recommend n4, if you aren't into rooting/flashing and stuff and want to enjoy latest releases... However, nothing beats the build quality of our beloved HOX! Another advantage you get is, if your bored with AOSP, you can easily switch to SENSE and then again to AOSP within a few minutes...

So in short, both devices are great atm, all that matters is your perspective...
[HTC One X] coolzarjun:
Is the 1 gig of ram a limiting factor for hox.. Compared to 2 gigs of nexus 4?

I've heard heavy web pages crash the browsers and sense uses much more ram so user is left with less ram

Good news everyone!

I have my repaired HTC One X with me today. The screen was replaced and I didn't have to pay anything. Took exact 7 days from the time I gave it to the service center and received it in my hands.

The bootloader still shows as "Relocked", so assuming they didn't check (or didnt care).

Now back to rooting :)
[HTC One X] IllUMINATUz:
congrats Buddy..
[HTC One X] shantusingh:
Ok friendz please help I want to unlock my bootloader and root... I know there are tutorial threads but please help as what I didn't get is

1) Are these steps still working on 4.1.1 : http://www.theandroidsoul.com/how-to-unlock-htc-one-x-bootloader/ (as I find this easy)

2) Is it necessary to install Clockworkmod (CWM) recovery ?!

3) After my phone's bootloader gets unlocked will I have root?! and can simply install superuser from google play as its free ?! After installing it then I install a needing root app and I will get to know I have root right ?!

4) Will I still get the future update being on stock ?!

And I just went in fast boot and clicked "hboot" just like that, what's that?! hope it doesn't do anything wrong....

Do guide me which will be the best root apps to increase battery performance, speed(cpu tweaking,sd card speed increase,etc) by which quadrant benchmark goes high and phone gets more fast please! I just want to root for this for now .

Would highly appreciate the same :)
[HTC One X] dakshmay21:
Yes you need Cwm recovery to flash superuser. And no, you can't just install it off the market. You need to flash it through the recovery. You access the recovery by clicking on recovery in the hboot screen.

For updates you would need to flash the stock recovery again. Then you'll be able to get updates.

Download trickster mod or setcpu to play around with governors and clockspeeds. Though, if you're really looking for performance, I'd say go for a custom kernel.

I CAN'T EMPHASISE ENOUGH ON HOW IMPORTANT A NANDROID BACKUP IS. SO DO TAKE IT THE MOMENT YOU FLASH CWM.
[HTC One X] shantusingh:
Thanks for your reply. I havn't ran the unlocking steps or anything yet, but I was just able to install superuser by chaindd from play store .

so if I just unlockbootloader and then install superuser by chaindd on play store, and install a root app to check,, shouldn't I already have root because of unlocking bootloader ?!

If this is possible then I will still remain on stock recovery n get updates .

If not possible then how to get back on stock recovery ?!
[HTC One X] vin4yak:
That won't work... Unlocking Bootloader only means you are able to flash custom recovery.. That's it...

So first go to htcdev.com get your unlock code bin file and unlock your Bootloader... Then install cwm recovery... I would recommend philz touch... Flash the supersu.zip file... That's it.. Your rooted!

However, to unlock the full potential of your phone, I would suggest you to use a custom rom! ;)

PS: Make sure to make a nandroid backup as soon as you flash the custom recovery...

-Sent from my IceCold One X!
[HTC One X] kkapoorr:
If you try to install SuperSu from the Play Store it'll not get pushed to the system partition. For that you'll need to flash it via CWM. Then you can keep updating it via Play Store updates.
[HTC One X] shantusingh:
thanks a lot, great guide! But humbly sorry I don't like cwm or doing that stuff, all's fine with the phone and I can't wait for its new update!

still thanks!

Edit - Just tell me as I was generally in fastboot by pressing volume down and power button and I clicked recovery, and I just got a exclamation with phone under it and nothing else, so I restarted it forcely again, hope that's havn't done any harm ?!
[HTC One X] vin4yak:
That's because you were trying to enter the stock recovery... You shouldn't be there... so hence the exclamation mark with the triangle...Don't worry, no harm done...

Lets hope we all get the sense5 update soon! ;) :/

if cost more than 30

i wont consider a tablet...after Seeing Xperia Tablet Z price my jaw dropped

44K!!Flipkart Link

i dont think i can buy that phone now..and i hated HTC for bringing the One Late so i dont think that my Dad will even buy me that

i am really a tech geek..i buy phones often(if i can i will develop for it)

Tablet is what i have not bought yet

and i think my first tablet can be a good one like the N7..

lol,i had a bad fight for that leak with Dj.cool(he was really stupid)

[HTC One X] Headless96:
If your on a budget get the N4

But the One is better in almost every way:

Hardware, screen, speakers, performance, battery and build quality

Plus with H1 if you get bored of Sense you could always flash AOSP (Lord builds ICJ for the One as well) whereas your stuck with AOSP on the N4
[HTC One X] razer1224:
i can flash any rom on this earth if it has a proper device tree

i am currently running Rootbox for my One x

i would try my best to get the One
[HTC One X] kruzzo:
Instead of getting the nexus 7 which is almost a year old, save the money and wait for HTC to release the rumoured phablet. I think you have never used a phablet as well so it will be a new experience and also since its rumoured to be having the s800 it will be a beast.
[HTC One X] Headless96:
Yeah source building is kinda easy but I meant that you can't flash sense roms on N4

[HTC One X] dakshmay21:
Rooting does not equal to unlocking your bootloader. Unlocking your bootloader gives you an access to your bootloader through which you can flash different roms or kernels or recoveries. You will have to flash CWM and then supersu to get root. If you'd like to get stock updates then flash the stock recovery again. But remember, you'll lose root after every OTA.

Anyway, which OTA are you expecting on the Indian one x? We're still stuck on 3.14.. While the world is on 3.20..
[HTC One X] shantusingh:
I am too stuck on 3.14, wish htc gives 4.2.2 with sense 5 in next update here in india. And Its ok i am not unlocking n rooting .

Bullsh*T!

Haha! That's the first thing which came to my mind what htc brought up the news of sense 5 to our hox... :p

I have a different cid.. Htc__32 which is from Australia... I also haven't received the 3.20... update... So I'm sure there are a lot of countries who didn't get this update... So one might think that htc would directly skip to the sense5 update?!

u havent rooted ur phone yet that means u r not interested in development...check out SGS4 section...its all silence there...no active development...and now check HTC one development forum..you will get your ans which phone is perfect and which matters more ? zero gap hoax or development...no offence :)
[HTC One X] shantusingh:
I reduced, sorry about that. See I totally take your words but first a phone is everything then development on which u would like to do, so for perfectionist guys like me, I would ofcourse need what I said and more I was talking on hox . Samsung(I don't hate it but I don't love it as well as much as I love Htc phones starting from hox) I understand doesn't put that hard work and make plastic built phones, but then there is no issues with its built or hardware, sound, etc that I've ever heard from my friends or anyone at work,,,, that means Samsung says this is what we can handle and can deliver in perfection.... here you go, that's atleast better!

I love Htc for awesome looks and better much needed performance of its phones. But htc says ok we did n made this n that, here take/buy it..... Then people buy a lot of that model then get issues and tell to service centers n everywhere, then htc starts improvising then they start building fine products in later manufacturing .

And I am very much interested in development as had done a lot on xperia arc s lately, but for hox I am not ready yet as its still new for me(used 11 months but still looks like just took it out of the box:)) and I don't like cwm.. no offence :P

nothing happened with my hox, its perfect from day one, just that I want that we get its update in india .... don't mind but i think u don't read my messages too well, that what I am saying bout hox and what about htc one and how talking about them together. Nevermind just forums so expressing what's happening all around the world that I saw during hox and with htc one, its gorgeous but in india if u get one no zero gap phone then anyone will b pissed to go with the exchange policy, I mean all I am saying to why htc make us go in that situation... I am saying for others or maybe myself if I wanna upgrade to htc one (but I will not as i better want an update for my hox for now, if we don't get it then I will be going for htc one and with fear if I don't get the perfect one as I will only buy that,,,, its complicated lol)
