HOX

- unibody build, nice design, feels great in the hand and very premium.

- companion core is amazing for standby time

- screen is one of the best if not IPS displays I've used, great all around

- better battery life if web browsing due to LCD

- camera hardware is good

- software in general isn't the best yet, falls behind Samsung by a good margin as usual

- some quality control issues being sorted out especially with displays

- tegra zone if ur into that

Both

- Quad-core is overkill, newer architecture would be best. Was hoping for the dual-core Exynos based off 28nm to be in SGS3. S4 Krait looks like the way to go for now in terms of performance and battery savings.

SGS3

- exynos 4 is faster as well as gpu

- software hardware integration is one of the best

- samoled hd has best blacks and vivid though oversatturated colors, Samsung tweaked it better supposedly

- pentile is still a bit noticeable, not a dealbreaker

- still using plastic and definitely feels "cheaper"

- sd support, removable bigger battery

- IMO the design is ugly, especially the back. The white color looks okay.

That's all I can think of off the top of my head. Both phones are much more comparable than Sgs2 and sensation. They trade blows and comes down to what you want.

If your showing gsm arena like everyone else theyre not a good source and their test is outdated.

Look for anandtech with their updated software. The international one x gets 7 hours of 3g web browsing. S4 one x get over 9 hrs of 3g web browsing, over 5 hrs with lte.

People like you make me lose faith in mankind. Where in my posts does it make me look like a fanboy. I've had the past 3 samsungs and loved them.

I said clearly in the post IMO capitalized the design is ugly. Obv everyone won't feel the same.

Im making valid scientific comparisons and based off me having had the galaxy nexus and galaxy s II as well as original galaxy s. I thought I hit all the right points. Samsung software and soc is better, HTC software sucks. Does that sound like a fanboy?

Take your ignorant bashing posts elsewhere.

Have you held and compare the one x with something like the galaxy nexus. Don't tell me the galaxy nexus feels more high quality because even though its great, plastic is plastic and doesnt feel as nice.
[Galaxy S III General] ECrispy:
Should we add comparisons to the Evo 4G LTE in this thread? because that phone will be much closer to the GS3 US release - both will have the same cpu, same size battery and sdcard, so the only difference will be the screen, software and chassis - and even the chassis is probably going to be different.

Yawn. Anyone got anything new for the table?
[Galaxy S III General] MultiLockOn:
Posted this in a different S3 vs HOX thread, I'll just drop it off here :)

I honestly don't think the HTC phones in general look that cool. Maybe it's just me, but none of them really stand out to me, they all seem weird :/ I think people just think they're nice looking, because that's what they're told and that's what everyone's lead to believe by the company. If you've never seen a smartphone in your life and someone handed you the one X and the S3, I think people would probably think the S3 is a nicer looking phone. I mean, everyone seems to think the iPhone 4s is the nicest looking thing out there, but it's not. My initial reaction when I very first saw it was 'That thing is ugly'. It's going backwards, phones should be getting softer corners, everything lately has been rounded. The 4S has some weird boxy shape to it, yet after a week or so the general consensus is that it's the best looking phone out there. Why? Because it's an iPhone. I think the same goes for HTC, I've seen their production video for the HOX, I'm aware of the work they put into designing it, and I appreciate that. But personally, I really don't think it's a great looking phone, it's weird. Especially when phones have a white back and a black front, it doesn't look professional to me. It looks as if the company got cheap and decided to switch out the plastic on the back instead of making an entirely new phone; again, my reaction when I saw the dnifferent Razr color variants that all still had a black front, I was like 'That looks stupid?'. I really just think that the S3 is a better looking phone. And in general HTC has too many bugs with their products on ship, both hardware and software wise, I think everyone can agree on that. But even disregarding that, I really don't like Sense either. it's snazzy looking sure, but it's a memory hog and HTC phones are notoriously slow because of it. Not to mention development is difficult. I've never understood the hate for TouchWiz, it might not look as nice as some other launchers and Android UI variations out there, but it sure as hell offers the best performance. I've never used a phone as smooth as the S1 and the S2, ever. In fact they run smoother than the Galaxy does ICS, and I'm speaking from experience and many other sources. That's what rooting is for though, just install a theme and keep the speed plus that comes with TW.

Maybe other people agree with me, maybe they don't. Everyone's entitled to their own opinion, and that's fine. And someone might get really worked up over this post because they disagree with everything I'm saying. But that's my opinion, feel free to discuss
[Galaxy S III General] MrPhilo:
GSMarena is way more accurate in terms of battery comparison.

I get around 4 hour using my HTC One X browsing with around 10% juice left. So its pretty accurate.
[Galaxy S III General] xath23:
I remember getting a similar answer from you in a different thread, it's just weird to see you being so active on a forum for a phone that you see as inferior, or at least not to your liking... I didn't mean to be a jerk back then but some of your phrasing really sounds like you are making yourself feel better over your purchase. For example: "exynos 4 is faster as well as gpu, but not a humongous difference, nothing noticeable both are more than fast enough for anything out" Why explain? it's faster period. Even the dual core of the S2 is more than enough for pretty much everything on the market so why do you have to downplay it by adding stuff like that?

Both phones are great and have their pros and cons we all know that but right now, the still unoptimized S3 which is not even yet released wins most if not all "hands on" reviews. So it is almost certainly the better phone. The screen is a matter of taste. I prefer AMOLED and I'm saying that as an intermediate photographer... I have my dedicated equipment for "natural" colours and such and I see no use for it on a phone and multimedia device. As far as multimedia goes it looks FAR better on an AMOLED screen for the blacks alone. Not to mention it has a far superior battery life when it comes to that.

HTC seems to aim at the hip, young and "cool" audience where as the galaxy series seems to aim more at the matured audience IMO. Beats audio by "Dr. Dre" and Sense as an indication for that... I can't stand the looks of sense and while TouchWiz will not win any beauty contest it still looks more grown up to me, especially those small changes they did in the app drawer etc.
[Galaxy S III General] Basil3:
Your comment is kind of hard to read, but I'd have to say I'd be surprised if 8-9 out of 10 people didn't prefer the hox design. Not only the general shape, but the feel, the way front facing camera and sensors are integrated into a nice looking design etc. I really can't see why samsung made the sgs3 look so messy, particularly with placement of flash, sensors etc.

Sense is a memory hog, but it looks good, with nice widgets etc, is user friendly, and htc have listened to feedback by slimming it down.

As you say, for most people on here the phone will be rooted and sense/TouchWiz isn't an issue.....although I do like being able to choose between sense/de-sensed/miui/vanilla android/CM9 ROMs.
[Galaxy S III General] BarryH_GEG:
As long as you don't try to make your personal opinion out to be what everyone else should be thinking and imply that they're somehow not quite right in the head for disagreeing with you, have at it. Your opinion's no more valid or invalid than anyone else’s.

LCD vs. AMOLED, PenTile vs. non-PenTile, design, feel, and build materials are all subjective and therefore can't be right or wrong. Things like fixed storage and non-replaceable batteries aren't debatable. However whether they're important to everyone equally is.

There’s “right” and then there’s “general consensus.” From the amount of commentary regarding the SGS3’s design both here and in the press the general consensus is that it’s not universally appealing. Even the GSMArena review which has now become the penultimate validation of the SGS3's supremacy commented on it. Personally, I’m getting a SGS3 in spite of its looks; not because of them.
[Galaxy S III General] v1rtu4l:
tests are always a point in time capture of things and it is imho just right to compare both devices with stock configuration. you could always argue "but if i do this and that my device is faster/better" but that is not the point.

if you tell someone who wants to decide between a volkswagen golf and a honda civic that the volkswagen golf is faster, just because you have the GTI version or did something to the engine to make it faster will not really help the guy trying to compare the two cars. of course you could apply an update for the htc one x and than gain an advantage, but now samsung users could say "but if you install the latest samsung rom you again get better results" and so on. there are many many many devices that never see an update at all, because their owners are either afraid of OTA-messages telling them to update or they simply do not install the manufacturer update software on their PC. to get back to the car analogy, if you tell the guy to get a volkswagen golf, because it's faster and the guy does it and ends up being disappointed with slower car because he thought it was faster as is and not with tweaks/tuning you are to blame.

i could again argue that my galaxy s II is faster than the htc one x because i get higher scores in some due to the uber-cool minimalistic rom i installed. should i tell anybody now to buy the galaxy s2 because its better than the htc one x ?

it is remarkable how much time htc one-x users spend here in a "foreign" forum to flame against the samsung galaxy s3. seriously, if i had a htc one x i would by happy with it and if i am content with the situation i enjoy it and feel no need to visit forums of other devices to tell them that my device is superior.

this really looks like a case of cognitive dissonance where you try to construct a "version" of reality where the purchase of the htc one x against waiting for the galaxy s3 makes sense.
[Galaxy S III General] randombirt:
Why do you get so upset and feel that he's regretting his buy? It looks to me that he's pointing out his opinion quite respectfully. Ugly isn't how i'd describe it but to me it looks plain, it looks like a samsung, but i'll still buy it. The thread title will lure one x owners here, can you not see that? I hope the sgs3 lives up to your expectations and has no launch issues as yourself and the other members that struggle to deal with differing opinions will struggle to deal with the sniggers from the one x owners.

The sgs3 forum is the place to be if you want a comparison thread between one x and sgs3, its almost as if some people are trying to justify choosing the samsung after it failed to live up to hype by bashing the one x.

For American Variants on Sprint:

HTC EVO 4G LTE:

-Dedicated Camera Button

-Kickstand

-Available in your hands May 18th

SGS3 - Sprint Variant(Assumptions):

-+100mAH battery size

-Removable battery

Tossup:

Screen size

Screen tech (Pentile vs LCD)

Sense vs TW

Build Quality (HTC One X > SGS3, but EVO varies from it for better or for worse)

Sound Quality (If the DaC is based on the SoC, should be very similar)

Processor

GPU
[Galaxy S III General] ECrispy:
And release date of GS3 in the US is unknown - it could be delayed months. Also there is a good chance the phone we get won't have a physical home button (at least with Sprint).
[Galaxy S III General] SlimJ87D:
So what you are saying here is that you are not interested in anything that doesn't support your argument but only interested in things that support your argument?
[Galaxy S III General] v1rtu4l:
here comes the first flaw in your theory. so you say people would prefer the htc one x because of the feel, even though you did not ever touch the galaxy s3...

how a symmetric order of flash, camera lense, loudspeaker grill is perceived as "messy" can only be explained by the math teacher that probably gave you low grades in geometry.

in general i like very much that samsung did take a further step with touchwiz to improve the user experience in a way that will omit the need to root the phone for user interface tweaks. just think of how they integrated what jkay added with the scrollable notification bar shortcuts... very nice i gotta say
[HTC Sensation] Razpr:
Is there any way, other than deleting the facebook account, to NOT get facebook friends' birthdays on my productivity screen?

I even went to the settings on the productivity lockscreen and took off facebook (only left my gmail account) and i de-synced the calendar from facebook on my accounts.

on my agenda widget it works just fine, i uncheck facebook and i dont see the birthdays in my calendar anymore, however it doesnt work that way with the productivity lock.

Im on ORdroid, but it also happened on Elegancia Sense 4.0 and happens on my buddy's evo3d with Newts (a Sense 4.0 RC ROM)

Another thing: does WI-Fi turn off eventually if the screen is off for a long time? Keeps happening on all Sense 4 Roms and ive selected for it specifically not to turn off when the screen goes off. But this will happen after 20-30 minutes.
[HTC Sensation] madaro:
I'm having the same calendar event productivity lockscreen problem. Even when I disable every calendar account, they all still show up.

Would love some feedback on this!

Same here. I do not want to see weird facebook people everytime i turn on the screen!

I have no issues with the lockscreen running pkmn 5.1 just went to settings from the lock screen style screen and changed which calendar events I wanted and pushed okay. all works well.

I have a strange Bluetooth issue: I can't even find my Bluetooth headset with my HTC One X.

But the Bluetooth headset works perfectly - I can easily find it with my HTC Desire or any other phone.

The headset itself of-course is in pairing-state.

Might this be due to only Bluetooth 2.0 capability of my headset?

As you know HTC One X has Bluetooth V 4.0. Is this backwards compatible to Bluetooth 2.0?

Anyone else experiencing such issues?
[HTC One X] BarryH_GEG:
It's supposed to be. But as we all have experienced at one time or another BT is an imperfect technology. I've been lucky. All my BT devices work fine. The One X actually connects much faster to previously connected devices than my i9100 did. I have a BlueAnt Q2 and confirm it works fine.

Once you do get a headset connected you'll find HTC didn't include a native ICS voice dialer. All the APK's I've found don't work. The only way I've found so far to initiate a BT call from the headset is to use Vlingo in In Car mode. Hopefully a dev will come up with a working BT dialer.

Good luck.
[HTC One X] theliquid:
Argh, my Bluetooth headset was quite cheap (~30 €), and is a no-name brand (bought about 2 years ago) :(

Bluetooth connection from One X to Desire works flawless.

Maybe I'll buy a new headset from a well-known brand ...

Or any other ideas? :(
[HTC One X] 1earful:
try a reset of the phone? that seems to help in a lot of cases. also, any other bluetooth connections already in place? may want to try removing them before doing the reset. i have a much older bluetooth headset that will pair with my one x. and a newer one that pairs. both useless for voice dialing without an intermediary app, but the newer one seems to work well with a paid app (enhanced sms and caller id) that will identify callers and also read sms messages. getting there.
[HTC One X] theliquid:
Hmm, reset is just my 'ultima ratio' ...

Will only try it, when I get not other solution ...

Any other ideas? :(

I have tried to change the boot animation on my device(rooted) and was unable to do so even after a day workout.. earlier samsung android phones(may be others also) used to have bootanimation.zip which could be easily replaced but currently i cannot see any bootanimation.zip for galaxy r stock roms. i have tried all the possible locations for it.

it may be possible that (i dont know) samsung has shifted the bootanimation to qmg formats which are seen in system/media folder.

even tried UOT kitchen but no chhange in boot animation and lock screen

i couldn't find much threads for changing lockscreen for the device.

Lock screen depends on rom, if u use chinese firmware u will get galaxy note like lock screen and if u use others u will get s ii like slide page to unlock screen.

I think u need data toggle in notification drawer, 2 options to get it

1. Use any theme by alfone (project series, can be found in theme section) all themes have data toggle

2. Use 14toggles mode (can be found in dev section) u can have data toggle with other usefull toggles also.

You can flash GLX-R or Titanium 2.1, GLX-R will come with ICS Lock screen which you have on GS II and it will have Data on/off by default on the Status Bar..

if you want to continue with your stock ROM and have the data on/off in the status bar then follow the steps in below link you can add them.
