It should be a European firmware. If it flashes/boots on anything other than x.xx.401 handsets I'm assuming you'll either get the next x.xx.401 update or be cut out of OTAs altogether.

If you get your hands on a UK OTA I'll be more than happy to take a look and see if the same trick will apply to that one.

Like always I shouldn't have to remind people to backup via CWM, but I'm going to.

BACKUP WITH CWM FIRST.
[HTC One X] EddyOS:
But it means you have to unlock your bootloader, which means next-to-no warranty, which is what people here DON'T want to do

I don't really think Amazons reason for stock issues with the phone is due to poor quality.

Think about it.....your saying Amazon have pulled it because of "all the issues" that get reported by a minority on forums.

If that was the case, don't you think the phone would have hundreds and i mean hundreds of 1 star reviews ?

In fact the phone on the link you provided shows only 4, 1 star reviews with 36, 5 star!

In fact my white X came from Amazon and I havent posted a review (and lets face it what % do when its good, we only tend to post when its bad)

I would give it 5 stars, so make that 37 now!

---------- Post added at 08:42 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:41 AM ----------

That's the one people are getting (and is already linked to elsewhere). you can't flash it manually, though unless you're S-OFF
[HTC One X] aslan93:
People who want this update in UK and are unlocked just flash the ruu
[HTC One X] surfer1000:
People who want this update in UK and are unlocked just flash the ruu

You're really missing the point :mad:
[HTC One X] EddyOS:
You don't need to be unlocked, it'll flash anyway

---------- Post added at 09:35 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:34 AM ----------

He has a point, though. You have the oppourunity to flash the RUU yourself after backing up your device using the built in backup commands via adb. OK it's not the quickest way of doing things but, IMO, the best way as an RUU will mean the update takes correctly. Sod's law you'll get the OTA and have to wipe it anyway to get it running properly!! :D
[HTC One X] surfer1000:
Well give me the link as to where HTC endorse such a procedure and I'll conceed he has a point!
[HTC One X] scott.eden:
you can download the RUU from here:

I done this 2 weeks ago, I'm not waiting for HTC with there waiting games for the UK.
[HTC One X] surfer1000:
.

This was the 1st post for this thread, the main point of the replies is that people are checking there phones and not getting the update the post refers to in the UK.

Yes there may be work arounds for techno heads, geeks, Etc, Etc, but for the average Joe it's simply not happening in the UK for them, thats the point!

Just checked my phone, HTC One X, UK, Unlocked/Sim Free, was on 1.28.

Just manually checked and have got update to 1.29 downloading now :D
[HTC One X] surfer1000:
wow me too!!!!!!

Its here guys!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[HTC One X] RBFesquire:
Hey guys, guess what? Just downloaded the update. I am irrationally excited about this.

edit: All, downloaded installed and good, but when the screen came back on it had an error report? 'This handset has just recovered from an abnormal restart'. Strange huh?
[HTC One X] Spewy1:
Me too, hooray - I'm now a happy chappie!

Looks like the deal has been made.

Anyone know when 1.30 will be released? :p
[HTC One X] beno619:
Are you guys all unbranded and uk ? still no update here Vodafone Ireland :(
[HTC One X] surfer1000:
Well lets just hope we don't have the same fiasco when it is!!!

I'm sure something will appear in a couple of weeks haha.

Sure - there are many issues they have to fix ;)
[HTC One X] Torc'qua:
Slowly but surely, avoiding frustration and being patient they will happen.
[HTC One X] smartmove:
Updated to 1.29 this morning on my unbranded One X. Roll on 1.30 ;)
[HTC One X] jammw:
Finally!
[HTC One X] kwtmoon:
Finally!

We got it :)
[HTC One X] jonstatt:
Hilarious.....all that crap about 30,000 units everyday. None of us on this forum had it. Now ALL of us with unbranded have it. So I guess we, by a stunning coincidence, were all in the same 30,000 units.
[HTC One X] troggy:
Just got 1.29.401.7 in the UK. On my unbranded HOX. Yepheee. What changes were included?

[HTC One X] rasterX:
My imported One X (via Expansys) just got its update. Now I have a sense which block of IMEIs my phone is from. Thanks for the heads up.
[HTC One X] farnsbarns:
I got it. Seems to have introduced a fault for some people, they can no longer post in existing threads and have to start their own. Thankfully I don't seem to be effected by that. ;)
[HTC One X] wulls:
I wonder what excuse HTC will come up with for this bolls up.
[HTC One X] EddyOS:
For those who haven't seen the changelog from HTC, it's here:

thanks eddy,i hope the camera improvement will get rid of the yellow tint on photos,looks like every pic i take people have liver problems :S
[HTC One X] Wielki.Brat:
confirm I got this update as well :)
[HTC One X] bigbamboo5:
Heh. (Although all of them will now be polluted by people saying 'I got it' for no apparent reason...) :p
[HTC One X] Torc'qua:
The changelog states:

Improved power management

Enhanced HTC Car user experience for navigation voice prompts

Camera improvements for HDR mode and video snapshot

Improved incoming call alert speed

Added device volume control when in DLNA mode (HTC Media Link HD required)

That's your answer my friend :)
[HTC One X] anubis1980:
Really slowed my phone down after this update was applied, jerky screens and slow overall. Factor reset fixed this in case anyone else has same issue :)

Just checked my unbranded phone i got from Phones4U and i have the udate ready to go. Thanks for the heads up dude, after over 100 pages of posts in this section alone we finally have light at the end of the tunnel.
[HTC One X] Flyarnk:
A question guys:

I have rooted HTC X running on stock rom 1.28. Just received notification that 1.29 is ready to be downloaded. I did that but phone restarts in Recovery.

How can i install official update?
[HTC One X] surfer1000:
Can you head over to my thread "UK 1.29 OTA Update...It's Live!!!"

and post there that "you got it"

TA!
[HTC One X] Kermagod:
Try this:

It worked as expected and now running 1.29. Bootloader relock was not needed.

Note: at step 2, I used 1.28 stock recovery and step 3 was obviously the 1.29 update.
[HTC One X] ajc158:
Just upgraded to 1.29 also in the UK:

This seems to have made a huge difference to my standby battery efficiency! I have applied all the tips in these forums and was still getting poor standby life, so I was running some tests ;-)

Today's testing while at work, all on standby with no screen usage for the period, data turned on, wifi turned off, bluetooth on but unconnected:

(incidentally, previous testing had shown that leaving wifi on while not connected to a network really hits battery life - not terribly surprising, but worth noting all the same)

PRE UPDATE

Auto-sync on

11.20 81%

12.00 77%

~3% per half hour - pretty steep for no use!

Auto-sync off

12.00 77%

13.35 68%

~3% per half hour

No widgets, no auto sync, and only one homescreen!

13.53 65%

14.32 61%

again, ~3% per half hour, getting a bit boring!

Then the update arrives!

POST-UPDATE:

Turned auto-sync back on, 4 homepages with widgets

15.26 42%

15.58 42%

Less than 1% per half hour!

At the least this is 3x more efficient than it used to be - I don't know what HTC have done, but it seems to work very well for standby. I will continue to test, and see if this behaviour continues...

Here is the visual evidence:

[HTC One X] knoxploration:
We all are, because the update (despite the flat-out lies to the contrary from HTC's level one support) was not released for any UK retail phones until today, and was released for *all* unbranded UK retail phones today.

It was obvious all along that HTC's support were simply making up the answers, and now we have irrefutable proof.
[HTC One X] :
Do you ever stop moaning? FFS you have the update. Give your trap a rest man.

[HTC One X] guardian1128:
Wonder how long the branded handsets will take to get the update, took long enough for my branded orange handset to get updated to 1.28.061.9.

Tried to flash the RUU but it failed on various attempts with unknown error so kinda had to give up, *sigh*.

Guess i'll have to wait on ORANGE again, grrr.

Hehe now you missed the 30,000 perday quota for OTA(not sure if it's even true Lol, but maybe it's true) :D
[HTC One X] knoxploration:
It's not true, as evidenced by the fact that this nonsense claim was made by HTC UK, not a single person in this forum received the update for two weeks on a UK unbranded retail phone, and then suddenly we all received it on one day.

However, the update server frequently doesn't respond on the first check. Check three or four times and you'll probably get it...
[HTC One X] TEAM17:
Thanks mate, I successfully updated to 401.11 :)
[HTC One X] spiderz007:

Is the poor battery life issue fixed?

Over heat up issue fixed?
[HTC One X] Torc'qua:

There is a uturn, boot into fastboot and from a command line reflash a stock recovery. Apply the update and then reflash CWM. Is that simple :)

Try checking for the update a few times in a row. It's not uncommon to have to try four or five times before you get a notification. Seems like Android doesn't differentiate between 'no response from the server before timeout', and 'no update available'.
