HTC One has ZERO shutter lag opposed to .7 seconds.

Less noise in low light conditions.

The flash doesn't contribute as easily to overexposure because it has a proximity sensor which adjusts the flash's brightness.

However, you're gonna get a TON of mixed opinions and reviews. You will even see comparison videos that are all sorts of skewed and in favor of one device or the other.

Why? The SAME reason why you see differences for actual digital cameras from person to person.... The person!

You have people doing this who are not photographers and keep in mind every camera takes getting used to. You might not know it (unless you're a photographer) but over time you will do things that compensate and your photo quality will increase. No matter the device.

Both 8MP cameras.

Both HD video.

I really want to see a video that comes out on YouTube where the settings are played with. I want to see people actually TRY to take a photo rather than blindly wave the device around thinking that's how you take a photo.

Sorry. I have some reservations about this whole thing actually being a photographer. I wouldn't exactly call a phone a camera in the first place either. They both suck as far as I'm concerned, but if you have to use a phone....You're not any worse off with an iPhone than you are with an HTC One X.

You will get both good and bad photos from each and only 10% of what you actually shoot will be usable. Just sayin'...

Coming from an iPhone 4 for the past 2 years. I've never owned an android device, before iPhone I had HTC Tilt 1 & 2.

Biggest complaint so far is the browser(s)

. They are all nice with features like tabs and stuff, but they are not as good at rendering sites, especially when zooming or scaling. Safari on iPhone is really great, and a lot of sites have been moving to, I think, HTML 5 video. So a lot of times I can click the video link and my iPhone would play it, so I don't think I missed out on the flash experience too much. Also I site I use for work on a weekly basis doesn't seem to work on any browser I tried, but worked fine on Safari. I tired Default, Dolphin, Chrome and Opera.

I do love the customizing I can do on this though. It's awesome.

Sense is pretty good

so far and I like the swype type function built in. Widgets are cool and the lockscreen is nice. There is so much that is so different from iPhone.

The camera when the user is sill is good. But I was trying to shot a "tour" video of a hotel I was staying at this weekend and wow, the

video would not get focused

! I had to stop moving, let it refocus and then I could move again for a few seconds before the focus went all crazy. That is horrible because I want to be able to move when taking video if I need to.

There were some complaints about mail earlier. iPhone mail was okay, and it was a little better once I jailbroke and got an app off cydia that customized it a little. then I got those colors next to the emails to tell what account it was from. This mail app does it already and that is nice. It also threads my emails and I love it. View HTML is a bit strange because it doesn't resize it and that sucks. I am using the stock mail program and disabled gmail because I use exchange for work also.

Oh another big big "boooo" for me is that

Pandora on android doesn't seem to have lockscreen controls

! I loved how iOS handled music and I wish android did the same, but it seems these type of things are left up to the developers. So shame on Pandora for not having that. I pay for Pandora and have yet to find a better, imo, alternative.

I swear my

hand has started to cramp

after holding this for a while. It's so big compared to what I'm used to. It is awkward to use sometimes, I think it will take time. Probably doesn't help that I have a case for it, but I don't want to mark it up in case I want to sell for SGS3 later this month.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] jeremyshaw:
I'm still keeping my iPhone 4S (work), but I'm still stuck on which one to use as a daily driver. iPhone is still a better executed system, IMO. Too many stupid little nitpicks even for first party (HTC and Google), to be had on this device. That, and all the pointless att stuff I had to.disable, bit couldn't really get rid of.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Cryosx:
Maybe try changing the User Agent to iphone. I think dolphin can do it and maybe the stock/default one on the phone. Make sure to try quick ics browser or ics browser + and see if your web browsing experience (after changing user agent) is closer to what you had on your iphone.

Just tried pandora and it's kinda ugly ui wise, they need to update that stuff. anyway, just for fun, try installing milocker from market and download this mtz http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3890578/v4lock.mtz. place it into MIUI/theme using a file manager (i personally use solid explorer from the market, use whatever you want).

then go into milocker and apply V4. you might want to disable your lockscreen now (go into settings and security i think). double tap the lock icon to bring out the media controls.

try using that with pandora

might be a bit buggy

also, if you want to get album art to show on the disk thingy you need to use miui music v4

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1517441

if you hate it, get rid of it and re enable your old lockscreen.

if you ever need to change your default video player use MX Player, supports lots of formats (when you default it to software decoding)
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] truciet:
Also try Chrome. Even though it's beta, it's really smooth. So much better than the stock browser.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] wrxdrunkie:
I've got to agree with some of these rants not just to rant but hoping that someone has a solution.

1) The way the email client zooms in and doesn't let me pinch to zoom is ridiculous. I want a view just like on Windows Phone and iPhone where it starts with a zoomed out view and I zoom into where I want.

2) The iPhone also does this also but I hate the OS reloading web-pages when I go back to them, anyway to keep that from happening? The phone has freaking 1GB RAM, I don't see why it can't keep 2 tabs from reloading. My Omnia 7 with 512mb of RAM won't reload a tab if you come back to it a week later.

3) Email again, the fact that there is two apps is actually dumb. If you built an amazing, fast, and fluid email client, why would you want to use a different one? From a customer experience standpoint I think having one amazing e-mail client is better than having a few specialized ones. I prefer the iphone and windows phone email clients and web-browsers.

4) Music controls. They disappear off of the notification bar sometimes or don't have any controls, or they are controls with no skip back button. I also wish I could change the track like on Windows Phone; when you press the volume button up or down it brings up the music controls.

The rest of the phone is amazing, I can obviously live with these problems.

I am coming from Windows Phone for 1.5 years, I've also had a pre, evo 4g, and iphone. After going through 6 Lumia 900s with a purple tint from the Samsung SAMOLED I went with the One X and love it. But the email client and tab reloading really annoy me, lol.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Valdeck:
I think one of the issues here is that for a lot of people in this thread the One X is the first non iphone ever or first in a while and while sense 4 is very toned down and actually likeable now (imo) it is not the best experience for people to get used to android with particularly in regards to email.

One of my grips with HTC and Sense (of any number) is their mail client and always has been. It is a awkward to set up exchange accounts with as the terms they use are different and it has some less than intuitive options that are not straight forward to turn off or are confusing in how the impact mail delivery (active sync being one).

In straight android there is two clients one for Gmail and one for Email (Named Email). The Email client can handle Gmail and most anything else you throw at it and handles push, calenders, etc... very well. HTC's mail client while cool in some respects gets over complicated and bogged down in its own email client self. Hence the issues I think a lot of iOS users face coming from iOS to android can end up using a client like HTC's mail that is (imo) not up to the standard of android in functionality but does look better than the stock.

Anyway all of that to say I wish that HTC used the stock email client that behaved predictably and worked well even if it might look quiet as awesome. So when you have to deal with a lot of exchange accounts or needing push on many accounts or are handling various email types it is a more professional and functional approach.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] darkamikaze:
I personally prefer Dolphin over chrome considering opening new tabs is such a breeze. (I know it's one click of a difference but one click is big for me) Not to mention Speed Dial..
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] truciet:
Thank you! Someone that replies with a proper understanding without the bashing :cool:

I agree, however, the HTC One X is not my first Android phone. I have used the original Nexus, HTC Inspire, Nexus S, and Galaxy S and S2.

It's always been the same. Vanilla OS or not (Sense/Touchwiz), the STOCK email app has always been a poor experience.

However, I will say ICS has to be the best update yet for Android.

And I also agree about AMOLED. I hate pentile display and I hate the blueish/greenish/purpleish tint :mad:
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Valdeck:
Well I can not disagree that the stock email experience is... inflexible at times. I should qualify my statement to say I think the stock email client in ICS of android is more predictable and easier to set up when you are using multiple accounts and such than the HTC or Touch wiz email clients (however touch wiz does have a great calendar app).

Personally however that is about as far as I can really speak to stock email on android. While I use a exchange accounts for work they are basic. Email, calendars and tasks. The majority of my email flows through my gmail account as is where my contacts live and my main calendar.

I also like it separated because gmail is mostly personal use and exchange is all business so I have never wanted to use a combined inbox. I am glad that you enjoy most of Android :) but I agree it could use more polish in some areas.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] kevroc:
I'm struggling as well...but a lot of that is just adapting to a new experience. There's the size of the phone which is both great at times and not so great at times. There's also learning how to do things on Android that were second nature. A lot to learn, but I'm trying to be patient and just explore a lot. I must admit, the main feature keeping my attention is the LTE, that is probably my only complaint with my iPhone is the poor data speeds (and wishing the screen was a little larger).
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Valdeck:
Just do not be afraid to ask questions :) better to ask and get the answer so you can enjoy your phone than struggle and get frustrated.

3 days so far after iphone4.

good:

screen is big and clear. widgets are cool.

bad:

wifi goes on and off.

push email ever work.

my finger keeps pressing some icons on the right when i grab it. maybe due to bezel is so thin.

wish volume button was stiffer like iphone. i accidently keep pressing it when i grab the phone.

sometimes weather won't get updated.

internet browser/twitter/facebook and etc are not snappy like iphone.

the back material is too smooth so i feel like i may drop it.

Hello everybody.

i'm trying to make a custom rom based on stock and so far so good, but my problem is to convert that rom to ext4 for that can be used by lastest recoverys, and, of course, increase the performance...

So someone can give me a little help?

Thanks ^^
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] czkwg8:
use format command to do this.

(translation:Chinese people are trying to improve themselves！)
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] czkwg8:
add there commands into updater-script:

format("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/stl12");
format("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/stl14");
format("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/stl13");

but you need to have a kernel that can boot from ext4 fs.

[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] MatZ69:
yeah but then not boot... In a zip for rfs it works perfectly. Another with the format command dont work. by the way, i'm using a custom kernel that supports ext4 :/

Any idea? :S

[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] Darkshado:
Some of the recoveries have issues formatting to ext4 properly.

You could always provide your own binaries to do it.

What error message do you get when it fails to boot? (logcat or ddms)
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] MatZ69:
With a new kernel (of Delano) it works, but now wifi is not connecting, and SU dont give the right permissions --'

[Motorola Atrix 2] alteredlikeness:
Pull the battery and go HERE.

Make sure you do the "Replace" step mentioned at the bottom of the "HOW TO FLASH A FXZ" section if you were on a 2.3.6 based ROM.

Also, did you have enough battery left (say, around 60-70% to be safe) when this happened? If not, plug it in the wall charger for a while first.

Good luck!
[Motorola Atrix 2] cogeary:
What ROM did you flash? You might need to wipe data/factory reset. Boot up by holding the volume buttons and the power button, then use the volume up button to boot into recovery. Once you see the exclamation mark, press both volume buttons. Then use volume down to scroll to "factory reset" and use the power button to select it.

(data x3 , cache and dalvik x1) then i went into "install from zip" and i choose the file they gave me. it finished, i selected reboot the phone, and now im here in a soft boot.

You need to unzip the gzip file and pick out the boot.img
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JoeSyr:
Don't be afraid to extract files from a zip and flash them yourself. For the most part, the zips that you flash are just a file in a folder and an extremely basic script that says "copy this directory from this zip to the phone". Play with it a bit and have a backup in case you screw something up, but don't just assume it's prohibitively dangerous to get your hands dirty a little bit.

That said, both faux and imoseyon (leankernel) have links to stock kernels in their kernel threads. I don't know if they maintain their xda threads actively, but if you can't find it here, look on rootzwiki. Google the obvious terms if you aren't familiar with the site.

I found this at servalproject

Serval is changing the face of telecommunications forever

Communications should not just be for the geographically and financially fortunate — communication should be freely available to everyone.

It shouldn’t matter whether you live in a city or in the bush.

It shouldn’t matter whether it is economical for a cellular carrier to provide service to your community.

It shouldn’t matter whether you can afford cellular rates, or have credit on your phone.

Nothing should prevent you from communicating with those near and dear to you.

We also believe that people should be able to continue to communicate when they need it most.

In the face of earthquake, wild fire or cyclone, communications systems should keep working as well as they can, with whatever infrastructure remains available.

Serval is revolutionary, free, open-source software under development for mobile telephones, letting them communicate even in the absence of phone towers and other supporting infrastructure.

The initial public release of the software is scheduled for late 2012.

As I Know, this is the thing they try to streamline it. The flip animations was made posibble by stacking multiple layers, you can observed it by flip home screen to left/right a bit. Hence, someones claims it's the source causes heavy rendering that lead to desktop stutters, I agreed with the opinion.

It's Awesome Clock for me too, BUT i will choose to stay with sense 4.0 version. Perhaps, someones may try it on JB's project butter AND see how buttery it will become.
