You can save even more money by replacing it yourself which is actually not too difficult. Here is a good guide on how to do it. Glad i could help. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1592773&highlight=repair

Also here is the guide directly from their website, includes video. http://www.repairsuniverse.com/htc-rezound-screen-repair-take-apart.html

Do you have insurance? Best $7 a month spent period. Asurion has given me brand new devices in retail boxing as a warranty exchange. Plus you get free overnight shipping for warranty devices through Verizon.

[HTC Rezound] killahrey:
I've broken my digitizer twice before. Once for being an idiot and the second time for not being careful. Lol. Regardless its not very difficult. The problem you will probably have is if they don't include any kind of adhesive to hold the digitizer down. If it doesn't come with any pm me and I can help you find what you need. Or you will also not like all the dirt and lint that will get up under your screen, lol.
[HTC Rezound] snowman122:
See that's why I'm taking mine somewhere to do it I bought the digitizer so the place I take it to won't install a generic one like my incredible plus in case they mess up at least I know they can replace it!

Looks like preorder for GS3 on June 6.

Anybody jumping ship.?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Tinyboss:
I am going to, if I can. The multitasking problems, the locked bootloader/s-on stuff, the 2GB RAM on the GS3 are the main reasons. I looked at some very close-up pictures of the GS3's screen compared to the HOX and Captivate (the two phones I've owned), and I think I can live with pentile at that resolution, although I'd still prefer the HOX screen.

Oh well, there's never one phone that gets everything right. If I end up stuck with the HOX I won't really be upset...it's a great phone. I just think there are enough small factors adding up to convince me to switch if Wal-Mart/ATT will let me. I'll find out tomorrow.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] deduction:
Not in the slightest. As an owner of the HOX and also the Note, the difference between Sammy's Pentile and the HOX is astounding. Take a look at the SGS3 and HOX in direct sunlight before making a decision. Also, angled viewing is bothersome at best.

The only solid leg-up that the SGS3 retains over the HOX(L) is the MicroSD slot. Is it worth jumping ship to get an extra GB of RAM (which I highly doubt anyone will use), a MicroSD slot and a second-rate display? That's a personal question, I suppose. Personally, for me, I would say no.

Also, with regard to S-OFF: Why do you need S-OFF so badly? We can write kernel images without s-off and it appears we may be able to write to the radio block device as well.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] corythug:
I've thought about it, being as I've always had a Sammy. Buy I'm loving this phone and wanna give HTC an honest chance. The phones are near identical internally. Sammy has more ram and possibly a bigger battery depending on the carrier variations, but I'm effin loving this screen. Coming from a gnex this screen easily destroys all. Dev is popping up very quick. Bootloader is unlocked. We have workarounds for s-off and kernel flashes. The only irk I have is the radio blackouts that I gotta airplane mode to fix, which will be fixed. Plus having owned many Sammy I know how awful and slow there software support and version upgrades have been in the past.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] joelszs:
How many of these identical threads are necessary?! I literally posted on an identical thread yesterday morning...it couldn't be far down the main forum page.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] bloodrain954:
I returning mine asap
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
+1 to this.

It also astounds me how many people are so wishy-washy and can't make their own decisions about what device to keep. So many threads about "should I buy this phone" or "should I return it" on here and other device forums. It feels like the OP want someone to hold their hand, and make decisions for them. Just do the research, compare the phones in person, and make your own decision. Its not rocket science.

And every device has flaws. I don't care if its made by HTC, Samsung, Apple or whatever. No electronic device is ever perfect. Are you going to get the GS3 and start threads on whether you should return that too? I bet there will be plenty of those types of threads, too.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] nman123:

There are wayyyyyyyyy wayyyyyyyyyy wayyyyyy too many threads asking this same question just look at another thread and just make up your mind

every one was created different and have their own opinions its time for u to get your own opinion and decide and not

Let others decide for u

No harsh feelings attended just got annoyed of how any ppl keep asking this
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Tinyboss:
I know what you mean, but I can understand the other side, too. Many (most?) people don't have the spare cash to buy a phone off-contract, ever. They have to make a decision, soon, and then live with the consequences for two years. Coming from two years with a Captivate, which was a nice device with some nasty flaws, I can relate to the anxiety.

BTW, thanks again for taking the time to write a long and helpful answer to my root/unlocking question!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] bloodrain954:
I'd keep my one X if I didn't have my data drop every few minutes, if my wifi didn't do the same, that's is just unacceptable from anything you buy. Imagine buying a car that would turn off every 5 minutes, and you have to wait for the dealer to say 'Ok, we got a solution, now you can fix it'. I can't wait forever for a software update,and that's HOPING that's the problem. I use my phone for business and it's costing me money.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] xeper:
Hahahahahahahahahahahhahahaha

no.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] yellowfddriver:
I like the HOX but I'm probably off this ship. HTC needs to stand up for itself in the American market, but the locked bootloader feels like ATT was throwing its weight around a bit here. Yes, the android dev community finds ways around 99% of things, but I'm still waiting for either an official bootloader unlock from ATT or a new 1.85 root exploit so I can run SuperCID and get in on some of these ROMs that are cookings. Unfortunately for me, I was having huge data drop issues on 1.82 and I went to 1.85 hoping it would be the fixer. It's not bad but...I have a feeling some of the roms (Nocturnal and CleanRom look amazing) fix this issue. While I don't mind using ADB to push things to my phone...and I can follow directions pretty easily, there are just some things I didn't feel confident doing, like using a Hex Editor to spoof my CID that way....so if you're on the Locked, Stock 1.85 ship, it's a pretty awful ship to be on. The HOX is a great phone, but the lack of stock to get a new unit (perhaps it was a hardware defect) to get to rooted, unlocked 1.85 had me going back to an iPhone in an instant. Hopefully either HTC or ATT has an actual solution which makes getting to ROM land even better, because it's a damn shame to see this phone in such a precarious situation.

The SGS3 seems like where I'm headed because on the whole, I've just had much more pleasant experiences with Sammie devices. With a few minute differences (slightly different low-light camera performance, and minutely visibility differences in super-direct sunlight), they're the same phone, one just has a larger battery and expandable storage.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ChongoDroid:
If I was a mod, you guys would be in trouble.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] kcsureshot:
No. The HTC One X is superior. It's faster in almost all benchmarks, I think on the review from engadget it lost in one benchmark to the SIII and it was barely. The screen is, in my opinion, way better. The physical phone itself is way nicer looking and I like the fact that it's constructed from poly.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] CraigP17:
no. ill leave it at that. the many reasons have been listed many times on here.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] kravguy:
Ditto
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] corythug:
Some gs2 had the same issue, I know the sprint variation has signal issues requiring a reboot. So Sammy isn't absolved of this either. And I'm on your amside at work my signal is always requiring a airplane mode reboot.. but it'll get fixed. I'll rage until then, but hey it happens.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] bmbrad:
The silver sticker above the beats logo on the back. Can that be removed or is it stamped on there? It's one ugly eye sore.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] vioalas:
It's just an imei sticker, you can remove it, you have spares.

While I'm sure some people are genuinely curious, a majority of these threads are being made by indecisive people that are insecure about their choice and want to feel backed up.

We should all know the pros and cons to both of these phones right now.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] bmbrad:
Yeah I'm trying to find out as much as I can. Get nervous cause all these complaints about light leak and dead pixels. Still think I'm going to go with the one x . It's a great looking phone.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
GS3 will have just as many issues/complaints or more. No electronic product is ever perfect. And forums like this tend to highlight the problems, as people tend not to start threads saying "nothing is wrong with my phone and its great". People with issues always tend to be the most vocal, and it makes the issues seem more prevalent or common than they are in reality.

My One X has no light leak, no dead pixels, no WiFi issues, no cell signal issues. GS3 has an ugly, boring, cheap looking design IMO, and that is an issue that is guaranteed to happen with that phone out of the box.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] elusivebyte:
Is there any reason to think that the GS3 will be more easily rooted than the HOX? I don't know the history of Samsung phones or their policy on locked bootloaders, and such.

I just got a HOX, and I'm displeased to learn that it shipped with 1.85, so it can't be rooted as of yesterday, 4 hours before I bought it!

Maybe someone will find another way, and maybe they won't. So what about the GS3? Will that be simple to root?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] gunnyman:
I have a theory about this.

1.73 was easily rootable because the bootloader was unlockable thanks to At&T.

I have a feeling that the "unrootable" 1.85 means that HTC is going to allow the bootloader to be unlocked pretty soon. Once that happens you can push the root files via recovery.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
Not sure what you're trying to say. Are you saying the root method stopped working yesterday? The root method stopped working about a week and a half ago.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] elusivebyte:
I must have misread a forum post's date/time. I was researching rooting my new phone and found a post that I would have sworn was dated yesterday, four hours before I bought my phone which said that AT&T fixed the exploit in the Ready2Go app.

I should go try to find it. I'm curious now.

Wow, I mistook this article's update date (along with the "Update:" text) to mean that the hole was closed yesterday. Then I followed the link to this thread where I didn't even read the date, just the "4:45pm"! That's horrible.

So I could have known that my new phone wasn't rootable if I had done proper research before buying it.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] xcsdm:
Not sure what I want to do...

I'm having issues with a WiFi death grip. If I hold the phone with my hand wrapping around the middle of the back, I lose WiFi. If I hold lower, comes back to almost full signal.

Also, the lack of root is annoying, but not necessarily a deal breaker, as it will come.

My question is simple, I've only had the phone a couple days. I really like it, not love it. I'm considering a SGSIII instead. Same price, and I can do it.

Is this WiFi issue common? One X or SGS III?

Make my decision for me, before I go insane.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] skatin707:
Definitely. Support for galaxy S phones is usually great in quality and quantity. I discussed swapping my phone with the ATT rep while I was buying it. He said it's not a problem, just a $35 restocking fee.

Someone said it earlier. I like the phone, but I don't love it.

I will say this, build quality is fantastic and the screen is beautiful. No external sd slot and built in battery are deal breakers for me, but I had to give this phone a try.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] z28james:
Samsung really supported the Galaxy S line well. My Captivate (as well as pretty much all other Galaxy S variants) never had consistent working GPS and Samsung simply didn't care. And forget about software updates. Thank god those phones had an unlocked bootloader or I'd have been still running gingerbread. I mean, it shipped with eclair ffs. It was the GPS deal alone that made my decision to pass on the SGS 3.

No way would I trade my HOX for a GS3. I absolutely love this phone. I'm sure I'll stop in and check the GS3 out tho.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Guster730:
Only advantage the GS3 has is 2GB of RAM, which isn't even that useful and removeable battery/SD card. But besides that. Same processor, worse screen, worse body, and I HATE TouchWiz personally. So unless you need more than 16GB, I find the One X better.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] skatin707:
I wouldn't say 2gb of ram is the only advantage. SD slot is a huge advantage as is removable battery. The S3 screen should prove to be a savvy competitor, but I do love the one x screen.

Worse body is hardly even worth mentioning since it's purely opinion. I, personally, like the S3 design much more. However, they share many similarities.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] EoinCuinn:
Nope. Love my ONE XL. Every Samsung phone I have ever tried I haven't liked. Every HTC phone I have had I loved

Totally agree with this.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] atermify:
I love this phone way too much to trade it in for anything! But, I can say that I am a fan of TouchWiz (moreso than Sense, anyway) and I will be trying it out at some point.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] gunnyman:
Right now the key for me is development. HTC is really dragging their feet on kernel source. I'm beyond my 30 days for return since I bought on Launch day, but if I see SGS 3 on Craigs List and development on this phone is stuck or severely lagging I just might jump ship.

But since we have AOKP and CM9 and very shortly, MIUI I don't see that happening.
[General Questions and Answers] Slap-Yourself :):
Hey guys, I'm still pretty new here at the XDA forums, so my apologies if this is in the wrong forum (This is where I saw it fitting :o)

Here's my situation.

I'm currently in the market for another smartphone, but don't know what I'm doing anymore (since after a while the phones all start to seen the same.)

Keep in mind it has to be a GSM device. I'm looking into Pre-Paid because honestly I don't want to deal with AT&T's outrageous $90+ a month and horrible data plans of only 1GB or 2GB

I'm a college student going into Petroleum Engineering, and deal with a lot of math etc. I want a phone that I can completely make use of.

With that being said, I've been looking into (for some reason) the Dell Venue Pro with WinMo OR the Galaxy Note..... I have big hands so this would make more sense. The Formula and Shape match with the s-pen sound and look amazing. Only problem is I'm stuck between the i717 and the N7000? I don't know what to choose from or if this is even my best bet.

Can someone clear things up or make other suggestions?
[General Questions and Answers] jay0518:
IMHO: just sum things out. list down all your requirements in a smartphone, that may help you decide.

you may also consider future upgrades (android OS etc..) from the maker.

good luck!

[General Questions and Answers] Slap-Yourself :):
So the Galaxy Note is a GS2 based device?

I also have another question. Let's say I buy the AT&T Version off of Ebay from someone who never used it, or did use it for a day. Would the Samsung manufacturer's warranty still be valid?

i would suggest the exhibit 2 4g. i used it for a couple months and its a pretty good phone for the price you pay. its pretty easy to root as well ;D
[General Questions and Answers] Allanitomwesh:
My opinion is to get the international version. It has FM. And also the video editor doesn't work too well on the AT&T. Besides, I wouldn't trust AT&T with my updates,that's a long wait. Plus I'd avoid the bloatware,samsung's apps + at&t apps = too much stuff you don't need.

I'd skip windows until mobile gets 8.

Yes. The quad core chip does not support LTE. Thus LTE version of the phone (Verizon? AT&T?) Will be dual core. Confirm Exynos chip before purchase. It'll be available in white and blue.
[General Questions and Answers] DigitalWarS:
Why no one considers Sony Ericsson?

I like the phone (which is more "phone friendly" than GS3) and the Bravia is a great engine....Xperia S features also a 12 Mpx full HD camera, dual-core @ 1.5 Ghz...and a really nice design...

Not to talk about the cost, which is pretty inferior to S2 or 3...

Come on, it is a phone to consider...

(ps: I have a GS2...)
[General Questions and Answers] Slap-Yourself :):
Honestly I've owned a few Sony Ericsson devices and they were amazing! I did consider a few, but I actually have no clue about these Sony Xperia devices (since my SE were all non-smartphones) Could you educate me a tad?

GSM? Easy to root/unlock etc? Will it work on TMO 4g? etc.
[General Questions and Answers] vx117:
The i717 Galaxy Note is the AT&T version and will only work on the T-mobile 4g when you hack it in some way. The international version (N7000) will not get T-mobile 4g at all.

That being said the only major difference is that the i717 sports a dual core snapdragon s3, while the N7000 has a dual exynos cpu, which blows the snapdragon s3 out of the water.

If you're planning to be on T-mobile, I really would recommend the galaxy nexus as it is unlocked and will work with the 4g and has a huge development base. Keep in mind that the HTC One X will not work on T-mobile 4g as well. If you really want a Note, then get the AT&T version. Otherwise, you can wait for the Note to come to T-mobile, which will be sometime in July.
