Actually, Apple took 12 months to fix the random restarts of the first IOS version, which were 3-5 per week!, (which when you have manual iTunes sync, after this restart - iTunes would remove all apps as auto sync would turn back on)

Apple also took a few weeks to fix the 'heavy' battery drain in their latest IOS5 (some people were reporting full battery drain in just an hour)

The HOX software is nowhere near as bad as this (bug wise), & this phone is only just over a week old. - I don't see the panic at all.

Personally , my HTC is running just fine, the bugs I have or optimizations I want are soooo minimalistic that they ain't even worth moaning about, people on this forum take little bugs & make them dramatic until they get what they want.

My battery truly trumps my SGS2, my H/3G constant streaming test was a whopping 9hrs 15 minutes,

My browser is truly a revolution, never used one sooo good before.

People will always complain, more so than people will boast of their phone, so especially on a forum - it would seem bug reports are stacking up, which is not the case.

Sure, we all want 1.28 but only because testers received 1.27 which reported even greater battery - without this news, nobody would be any wiser.
[HTC One X] ewok666:
Loved this post but ESPECIALLY the "even greater battery" part. I'm on 1.26 and even with nothing much installed or running the battery drains at least 10% every 15 minutes just flicking through the browser....or even doing nothing while the screen is on. That's not great battery life and I'm not the only one.

Also, the battery life is much worse than the SGS2. I know this because I have one as well. What is better is standby time with actuvesync accounts enabled while the screen is off. The drain there is virtually zero while Samsungs incompetent developers have been unable to fix this in over a year also the issue is much less pronounced now that ICS is finally out for it.

Now for the important part: To ship a phone to testers and reviewers with 1.27 and bug fixes and then not deliver these fixes on the retail units is at best deceiptful and that is what most of the whining is about.

just my 2c
[HTC One X] chrisjcks:
I never saw 4+ hours screen on time with my SGS2 (not with my usage, I understand everyone uses their devices differently, but can only compare based on my usage), & my SGS2 was operating at an under-volted state, custom Rom & kernel with a much lower auto brightness setting than what my HOX runs at.

I also managed 9+ hours of constant H/3G streaming & the SGS2 is closer to 6 hours.

That's without even mentioning the great idle battery drain.
[HTC One X] knoxploration:
This sentence shows you know nothing about how modern products are made. The first shipments will have been palletized / containerized and put on ships weeks before the review samples went out. Review firmware differing from early production firmware is not even slightly unusual.

In you world, magical fairies deliver from the factory in Taiwan or China to your own home town overnight, right?
[HTC One X] ewok666:
I know how things are made. I also know that OTA updates DO EXIST to address these issues! I didn't say they had to ship with updated firmware, did I? No need to post aggressive replies like these.

---------- Post added at 03:18 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:15 AM ----------

Sorry but what are you streaming for 9 hours? Video...and watching it on the device? I'm hard pressed to get two hours doing that.
[HTC One X] vsnlweb:
Wooooo! It's getting hot in here...lol

I think some software are not as good as others. Some may be more messed up than others hence the difference in results... Thats my opinion. Also I am not a programmer so I am just guessing at this point. Maybe you should send it back and get another and see what happens. I get really good battery life out of my HOX. And I have had a sensation, nexus s, amaze 4G and this is by far the best battery life I have ever had...
[HTC One X] hamdir:
thank you for this, its a new phone on a entirely rebooted OS and UI, a first time Tegra chip for HTC

look how much they perfected their GB firmware with the later sense 3.5

there is a reason all device makers r taking so long to release ICS, CM9 still not done, read CM's blog posts to understand why
[HTC One X] knoxploration:
...who applies these OTA updates that you want delivered "on the retail units"? Magical firmware pixies?

Also, it's fine for you to call HTC "deceiptful" [sic] for taking a few days to run firmware through approvals and get the go-ahead from legal before shipping it, but if somebody calls you out on that you pretend everybody else is aggressive?

Yeah, you're trolling, and you're on ignore.
[HTC One X] hamdir:
yup, one thing for sure lots of non One X owners on this board, feeding on our complaints

it's ok they will clear out soon when they have a new thing to troll
[HTC One X] spyz88:
Yeah actually that didn't happen. Also, there were no apps on the first version of iOS.
[HTC One X] gn0s1s:
+1 to this

I paid close to $800 for this phone. I expected coming from a Galaxy note that the experience would be an upgrade.

HTC has made a very big deal, about how they are refocusing their brand, reducing the models they release and increasing the quality and performance of this reduced line. This was music to my ears ,and the aesthetic of the One X is amazing.

By all accounts this should be an amazing phone. But the firmware they released with crippled it, and has tarnished both reputation and experience. The bug list reads like a horror show, and while some of you, have usage patterns that don't seem to trigger this, a large amount of us do. Our anger stems from HTC releasing a flagship product with buggy firmware.

If you want an example of how to deal with a problem, look at the lumia 900 launch, that was chewing data. Nokia offered rebates to early adopters, and has fixed the bug before they said they would. That is customer first.

HTC has largely ignored the masses, saying they don't have a date, and aren't aware of any problems. This kind of discourse, especially with us power users and early adopters leaves a bad taste in our mouth.

This is over a week of daily usage.

Maps runs in the background, screen time is atrocious, idle is eating batt.

My Razr with motoblur, and that is a terrible home launcher, 4 hours of screen.. my note had 5.

I m not expecting miracles, and I don't expect at all a perfect launch. As an early adopter i have pretty realistic expectations. My issue, and i think the root of most of our issues here are that HTC hasn't given a timeline or a roadmap, or acknowledged their customers.

We all know tegra works, my transformer prime is proof of that, htc has some issues to work out, but they need to be proactive in communicating those issues, not leaving us hanging without any timelines, a bad timeline is better than know timeline.

Anyways, this thread is getting totally derailed, Xmoo has been diligent in keeping us informed as he knows, arguing over an apple vs htc etc rollout isn't relevant to the thread,

We should shift the thread back to info as people get it, and post other discussions in appropriate forums.

cheers.

*just a note on battery life, looking at my stats you could say i would get 5hours on airplane video loop, but trying that at that dimness setting best i ve been able to get is 182 minutes. That brightness level is also not useable in daylight for the most part.

If they manage to increase the battery life by about 25% with the update, and fix all the bugs, ie, random reboots, glitching programs, overheating, I will be pleased.
[HTC One X] ba6470:
Any News about 1.28 OTA?

Hello Guys,

Sorry for this question, but i read the last pages and it was all about generell discussion.

There was someone telling we should get the update on Friday, but nothing in Germany.

Did anyone else got it ?

So far i have to say i was lucky, my one x has absolute no problems also the push on the screen issue isnt really an issue for me, i have to push that hard to see the screen changing as i woud never do this.

Also i do not have dust or dirt under the display, no pixel error, the camera is placed in the center.

Hopefully we get updates from HTC frequently

I really would like HTC to communicate better with their customer, we spent a lot of money for devices like one x, we can expect a little more i guess!

All the best from Dortmund Germany

Andreas
[HTC One X] hamdir:
ok sorry but its hard to resist

here you have it people, iSyndrome

here is some fresh medicine for you, google iPad3 yellow screen, overheating, battery and WiFi issues

its ok go ahead try it will only last a day
[HTC One X] ewok666:
Suit yourself. My One X has a software update function that I can use to apply OTA updates. No need for pixies and fairies of which there seem to be a lot in your world ;-)
[HTC One X] painterceessie:
I am with you all the way.

My one x is also great,no complains.

And yeah the browser is the best I have ever seen,so fast.

Cheers mate.;)
[HTC One X] designgears:
I am going to grab pauls repack and 1.27/6 and compare all of the tegra files and see if they have been changed. If they have I will post up some flashable versions of each for testing. Seems like a good place to start.
[HTC One X] Tonyipad2:
No firmware detected here yet too(Taiwan). Running at 1.26.709.3 sdk API 4.11 htc extension 403-1-ga-3 on my OneX. With all due respect the OneX indeed over all is a beautiful awesome phone to have, and yes there are problems on my OneX which gets me annoyed but the problems werent serious enough that would stop me from doing the daily tasks on it, and I do believe those minor issues could be fixed through a upgrading on the firmware. however I believe we won't be seeing a firmware update until at least another week or so due to le reason htc may needed to collect more user experience on the bugs to roll out with the proper fixes cause after all the phone was just released like a week or two. Anyways I really do like this phone the matter fact this is the first smart phone I ever owed, Ive bought a galaxy nexus for my brother awhile back and had a chance to play around with ics os , really liked it and that's part of the reason why I bought the OneX. Well hopefully all of our problems will be fixed soon or later!!

Ps. Please ignore my user name I ain't a fanboy of any brand.

The one x is awesome. I have been following this thread from the start, have had my one x for over a week now. And battery life is awesome. Best battery I have had on an android smartphone. Its sad to see some people who can't last a day on standby. :(

I have been using this charge for 1 day 12 hours and I'm on 48%. With moderate use. My software version is 1.26.707.2. I have had glitches per say but nothing serious. :)
[HTC One X] falconeight:

We could at least change the title as it suggests it exists. Better would When will 1.28 OTA arrive?
[HTC One X] Sebianoti:

[HTC One X] aranab:
So does the 1.28 updates battery upgrade revolve around moving the power management file to the correct system folder. Or is it providing an increase on battery life on top of that?
[HTC One X] zerozoneice:
no idea, come back after an OTA is actually released
[HTC One X] licenced:
According the thread on 1.28 on Modaco, the answer is no: http://android.modaco.com/topic/353307-english-repack-of-12814006-for-one-x/

Perhaps HTC are delaying the OTA to release a new version including this change now that the problem has been discovered.
[HTC One X] gapper100:
Okay, thought I might as well post this here as well. I installed the Chinese 1.28.1400.6 English Repack from Paul O'brien, and here are my findings. I'm hoping they fixed some more stuff in the WWE-version :)

The good:

The NvCPL Service finally works for me as well (after relocating it manually).

The glitch in the drag-down menu is gone.

Screen on/off button responds REALLY fast, feels quite amazing!

Calendar widget no longer crashes.

'Certain days not showing up/or being double'-bug is gone.

All Tegra-games work fluently now.

Three-dot menu is gone in YouTube, so I suppose it's probably gone in some other apps as well. (Suggestions which on I should check?)

Feels a little smoother overall.

The bad:

Force 2D-GPU Rendering still won't stick

Rosie still slows down a little with a lot of widgets, though it seems better than before.

The bug in the timer-app is still there.

Call-settings menu is still laggy/slow.

Screen-flicker on maximum brightness is still there.

Screen jumping in certain areas is still there.

Screen gradient background when (un)installing app still isn't smooth.

Live wallpaper still stops moving when scrolling through homescreens.

Screen stays on (though black and dimmed) while charging.

The neutral:

The type of data connection (G/3G/H) always shows, even when connected to wifi

There is no option to add Google Account (probably due to the Chinese origin, as Paul suggested)

I'll keep playing with it and report back :) So far, looks like a great update, can't wait for the WWE-version!
[HTC One X] Daan1986:
Finally some real news in this thread. Good to see the problem with rendering Tegra 3 games is finally solved. Just have to wait for official version then..
[HTC One X] chrisjcks:
But no fix for live wallpapers, ... Hmm, that should be greater priority in my opinion as that's an actual part of the OS, games are an addition.
[HTC One X] KevinB88:
Why did you buy a Quad Core Phone if games are less important than Live Wallpapers?
[HTC One X] chrisjcks:
Because I can afford too!

Why buy a phone with gaming as your highest priority?

Games are not even part of the phone, I'd rather they fix the software that is on everyone's phone rather than games that won't be.

That's not to say I don't play games, but jetfin, samurai etc run just fine on mine anyway as does a whole selection of other games that can be played from the market.

Gaming is very low priority compared to the standard OS bugs.
[HTC One X] kenan3cn:
Why buy a mobile phone for games? Get a ps vita instead. Cheaper and has games that are 100000 times better.
[HTC One X] bobsie41:
Back on topic.............................................you still haven't got it?? :rolleyes:
[HTC One X] gn0s1s:
Thanks for the Update. Did they also fix the issue with the touch screen not responding / lagging out when in the multitasking or switching to different homescreen pages? Any Comment on Battery life, greatly improved or the same?
[HTC One X] gapper100:
Haven't had those issues, no :)

As for battery life, I'm afraid I haven't tested long enough to come up with anything conclusive, but it seemed pretty good. I'll report back on this in a few days (if the WWE-update hasn't been released by then, that is ;))
[HTC One X] darkoroje:
I have been running the 1.28 version that Paul has kindly supplied for the past two days. The THD games such as Zen Pinball are smooth and overall the phone is working well. The status bar glitch seems to be gone. Stand-by battery consumption is good; however there is no improvement in battery life when the phone is actually being used. I struggle to reach three hours of screen on time and this is just doing browsing and email.
[HTC One X] gn0s1s:
Hopefully the delay is a result of them improving usage consumption, because the slcd2 should be able to manage 4-5 hrs depending on brightness easily throughout a day.
[HTC One X] Daan1986:
Any comments on heat generation? Less, or about the same?

I think the HTC Netherlands Manager just leaked some info about the EA Games app being included in the New ROM. https://twitter.com/#!/markmoons/status/190871747317346304

Some people with the 1.27 test rom, received a .apk with a EA-Games button in the menu. Just like how you have Search, Play Store and Menu now. In the update there will be a "EA Games" button.
[HTC One X] Havoc2k:
really looking forward ;)

phone is getting replaced anyways, but good time to test with the "old" one, if the new FW is good or not.

just the screen jumping really disturbs me, i got no other bugs, and many thinks don't bother me

you guys are talking about 1.28 and i only have 1.26 and no update when i check.

is this normal?
[HTC One X] Aja82:
If you look thru the thread a bit you'll see that it's only speculations regarding a future update that has'nt been released yet.

So far, we all are on 1.26 (well most of us stockusers).

What's discussed in this thread is when a firmware upgrade will be available and what it will contain.
[HTC One X] gangstar:
i saw some with 1.28 and i thought that its region dependant!

so is it true that an update is comming today? on 16.04?
[HTC One X] Aja82:
So far no one knows anything. All speculations. It may arrive today, or in three weeks.

If someone was on 1.28 it was the leaked version on a rooted phone. Or a chinease phone(?) was it officially released there? Somewhat confusing lol.

But no official update for us yet anyway.

1.3x should be out instead of 1.28. 1.28 was planned for Asian market only I think. Source for 1.3x: Football.

1.3x could be a development branch, update could still be from 1.2x

I wonder if or when this update does come if it'll have ICS 4.0.4 with it?

The HOX has 4.0.2 & that ran like a dog, Clunky & slow etc, on my Nexus, so I am thinking it's also slowing the HOX down too.

My Nexus with 4.0.4 is a dream machine & it would be brill if the HOX had it on too.

Heres hoping!!!!
[HTC One X] gapper100:
The One X has 4.0.3 right now. I'm sure they'll bring 4.0.4 to us at some point, but I wouldn't bet on it for 1.28 yet ;)

[HTC One X] DazNoonan:
I was speaking to Vodafone UK today and they said if/when the 1.28 is released then they wouldn't be releasing it for at least a few weeks after as they like to do internal testing on it (shame they didn't do that with 1.26 very well). Not sure if this is the same for other networks but it does seem like it will be SIM Free first, in the UK at least.
