I couldn't see the difference with my friends sim free S3 and my HTC One X screen when we both tried outside... I am on the Three 1.28 ROM still so am guessing that could be it?

I have already sent my phone for repair once so waiting before messing around with rooting it etc, it went for the screen flex issue although apparently they found a fault with the battery and replaced that too along with the housing.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] A380:

I recognise all of the problems mentioned. Unfortunately, HTC is not delivering the goods I was expecting. I will think twice before buying HTC top of the line model again.

European Tegra 3 model with Acer screen.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] darkion2411:
its good :))):rolleyes:
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Goku80:
i am talking about brightness. when you are out and about the brightness on the one x is much more brighter and visible in the sunshine rather than the s3..seriously my friend's s3 was barely visible the screen and had to put a shade over the screen to be able to see what to do on the phone. nothing to do with what network or firmware you are on..i am with three network and still the old firmware version as well
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] catachresistant:
If the One XL doesn't hit Europe soon I'm going to import the Telstra model from Australia.

32GB + Snapdragon S4? The ultimate version of the One X imo.

Can't be dealing with Tegra.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Nit3m4re:
Why? Its actually decent, yes I know people have issues with battery life etc but I certainly don't. I am not charging my phone up half as much as I expected to and I am getting 10 hours on screen time normally from one cycle as long as I am sensible with my connections.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] CamoGeko:
Lol, +1.

The experience varies from person to person. :)
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Goku80:
true but this thread kinda makes me laugh now..started off as how much of a disappointment the One X and how much better the S4 is and now the thread has gone completely in a different direction.:rolleyes:

take it you got your One X now then
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] kryptoner:
geko you got a one x? I thought you will go for galaxy s3
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] BarryH_GEG:
With black text on a white background (mail, SMS, browsing) there's a huge difference in contrast and the One X wins hands down. Almost everything in TW is white text on a dark background to help save battery and is almost impossible to read. Especially if there's any glare on the display. The One X display at max brightness is about 30% brighter than the SGS3's.

Here's a comparison of the O4X which has a similar display to the One X vs. the SGS3 at max brightness.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Goku80:
hey barry long time no speak..and thanks for verifying what i said about the contrast between the two handsets
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] CamoGeko:
Yeah, all in One X's favour. :)

Got it today mate, it's one amazing looking device. :D

Nah mate, got bored with Samsung. Wanted to see how far HTC have come, haven't been dissapointed yet.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] nikzDHD:
Good to see you here fella. You'll love the HOX, the screen is just out of this world!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Goku80:
good to have you here mate seriously. and like Nikz said ou will not regret it specially the screen is the best thing on this phone and specially the tegra chip with all the games

could not agree more my friend.:) best damn looking screen even better than the s3
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] barondebxl:
I agree, the screen is incredible, so is the design of the phone.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] BarryH_GEG:
I had a i9100 for eleven months, the longest I've kept a phone, and feel the same way you do. I got to play with a demo DoCoMo SGS3 in Japan for two days about a week ago and it convinced me to stay with the One X.

- Other than the new "plinky" and "toinky" noises when you're interacting with the phone, TW4 is at best a mild refresh of TW3. I hadn't used Sense 3 to compare but Sense 4 seems fresh and modern compared to TW. I also like the light backgrounds vs. the dreary blacks of TW.

- I'm surprised more people haven't commented but TW hasn't been optimized for the SGS3's HD display while Sense has. You get eight menu items displayed in settings and other areas within TW on an SGS3 vs. 10 for the One X. That's 20% of the screen real estate being wasted.

- Social integration on Sense is fantastic as are all the productivity tools. The productivity lock screen and weather being displayed once in the morning are simple things but hugely helpful.

-	I love the stock music player. It’s easy to use and has fantastic integrated tagging which doesn’t leave albums broken up separately when there are multiple artists. Also the ability to update album art with incredible high-res images using the integrated settings is brilliant. As is the ability to connect to DNLA players from within the app.

- Bluetooth and the radio on the One X are fantastic. Connecting both the JP SGS3 and my One X to the same networks and cars were night and day. I had to do nothing to get my One X to work but had to fiddle with settings and APN's on the SGS3. It wouldn't even connect to A2DP on one of the Nissan's the One X worked perfectly with.

As to OP's sense of happiness moving to the XL, good luck with that. Adreno reserves about 300ishKB of RAM making multitasking which isn't great even worse. That's why the S4 SGS3's have 2GB of RAM. And I can't imagine having only 10GB of user available storage. I'm getting about the same battery life I was getting with my i9100 so I'm content with the international One X's performance.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] CamoGeko:
Thanks mate, good to be here with you guys.

However, after 12 months with my Galaxy S2 I must admit that I feel a bit lost right now. :(

Cheers matey, I'm happy to be with you guys here. I compared both the S3 and One X screen and the latter is more amazing. To be honest I don't like the S3 shape and capacitive buttons all together.

Thats a great comparison and overview of features mate, I will thank your post tomorrow as it seems I have run out of them for today.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] nikzDHD:
No odin, you need fast boot lol for the rooting side and flashing side. If you want to root you need to unlock bootloader via HTCDev as only method available at the moment but it's a risk as may affect warranty as we have no S-OFF at the moment.

Back on topic I think the S4 is well, my sister has the One S and battery on it is far better. Also the sound quality is clean via headphones and noticeably better than the HOX which is not that bad an improvement over the SGS2.

The one xl will be a good phone and seems to offer decent battery life versus Tegra but only if you can get the Australian version with the 32GB as the normal xl with 16gb for me personally would be too low.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] CamoGeko:
Thanks mate!

I think I'll keep it stock for a while then see what's what.

well no need to read it or comment on my thread right? there is other worse garbage ppl post on this forum, so stop getting your panties in a bunch ...
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] :
Go to the ATT One X thread...posted the same thing...there are a few other people with the same problem ... Tegra 3 is ****ty and the Int'l One X runs on an outdated kernel .. Nvidia is ass when it comes to releasing drivers and updates ...
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] chrisjcks:
I don't understand this thread,

You traded a quad core with 32gb for a dual core 16gb?

.... are you insane?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Goku80:
You posted the same thing there. So was there any point spamming this forum as well then? Answer to that is no. Your not happy fine. But any need to create a thread about it. No there is not.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] barondebxl:
Well don't be deceived by these numbers, yes 32 gig is better than 16 gig, but dual core snapdragon S4 vs quad core tegra 3 is a different thing.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] :
if many of you guys use your phone as the primary device for gaming then im sorry ... i cant be the idiot who sits there staring at his/phone for hours playing games on it ... the S4 is much more power efficient and snappier than the Tegra 3, and in terms of graphical performance dropoff its not that much ... I am on the road a lot between college and work and need a device that can last me an entire day on a single charge and doesnt constantly sip on power ... i wanted that without having to undervolt, use another non-stock kernel, or use cpu underclocking programs. so far on day 4 with the ATT S4 One X and Ive needed to charge it only twice! Moderate to heavy usage and have been averaging 4-4.5 hrs screen time. Its a beauty to look at, works well, amazing camera, performs well and thanks to 4G LTE data speeds have been awesome. Also my Tegra 3 One X had the now widely documented Wi-Fi issue, and it apparently only affects the Tegra 3 Chipsets. The 28 nm power efficient chipset on the S4 is hands down way better than the 40 nm buggy Tegra 3. Maybe they can fix it later with drivers and patches? But it was not a risk i was willing to take ... NVIDIA has let me down time and time again ...

Now, some rules regarding the General Subforum:

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] BarryH_GEG:
Based on what? GeForce is far more capable than Adreno on the GPU side and aside from the battery life improvment of 28nm vs. 32nm what capabilities does the S4 possess that make it better than Teg3? Based on the initial benchmark and battery life improvements people have posted using the leaked 2.05 ROM Teg3 has a chance at surpassing S4 and coming damn close to Exynos.

I thought this too. It's false.

"Linus Torvalds has announced the release of version 3.0 of the Linux kernel. Although the version bump, which takes the kernel straight from 2.6.39 to 3.0, suggests a release of some significance,

it's actually a fairly modest incremental update

I believe the tegra 3 is based on 40nm. The 32nm is the exynos 4 quad.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] orb3000:
For me it´s much more important the design part than specs itself, the S4 One X version has an horrible at&t logo instead of HTC :eek::mad:

That´s enough for me to keep my original HTC ONe X Tegra 3 :cool:
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] BarryH_GEG:
My bad. Jet lag. ;) Point remains the same though. It doesn't do anything better or differently that you can detect other than consuming less energy which is then totally overrun the moment you turn on the LTE radio. Other than being more efficient because of the smaller die size there's no functional benefit.

I think that’ll all change though when the S4-quad’s released in the upcoming LG phone because it’ll have a completely new GPU, better high-end performance, and still be the most efficient chip compared to Exynos-quad and Teg3. The question is – what are we all planning to do with all this power that the UI and apps can’t even utilize? Measuring screen transitions down to 1/100 of a second seems to be a bit overkill bordering on neurotic. ;)

[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] phayz:
I am using QQ Launcher because both on the lock screen and dock it adds an indicator as to the number of missed calls and/or unread SMS messages. I could get this functionality using other apps but together they would use more memory than QQ Launcher alone. Aside from that it's a very attractive launcher.

My problem is with the lockscreen I have installed. It displays a disc in the middle of the screen. When you touch the ring you see a display of four icons: call, messaging, home and camera. All of these *except* for the camera work as expected. When I select the camera the app launches as expected but instead of the thumbnail of the photo taken previously, it shows a Cancel button. When I press the shutter button the camera app responds as normal but immediately after I have three buttons: OK, Cancel and Retake. If I touch OK the camera readies itself to take another photo. The problem is that in fact no photo is recorded. It certainly works if I unlock the screen *then* launch the camera app and take the photo. I just can't understand where these weird extra buttons appear from since they're don't usually appear. I am certain I have only 1 camera app installed.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] minsimpson:
I just learned that Galaxy S3 US version only has dual core, which is kinda lame. So now I want to know if international version will work on T-mobile or Verizon? Because T-mobile is my carrier now but I may switch to Verizon in the future.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] homegeek:
Unfortunately it will not work on Verizon because the international model is GSM and CDMA. It will work on T-Mobile but you will only get 2G.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] minsimpson:
Thank you. I have done research and it shows verizon is better than t-mobile, att and sprint. Is it true? For example, att and tmobile have fake unlimited data like when you exceed a certain amount they will slow ur speed down.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Baldilocks:
If you would read some of the threads here you will see that you can use the International version on AT&T with Unlimited HSPA+ Data. No slow downs. All for $10-$15 per month.

Whether Verizon is a better network is all a matter of location, location, location.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] minsimpson:
HSPA+ is 3G network right? I just personally don't like Att and T-mo cuz I have had bad experience with them. Heard verizon customer service is a lot better and true unlimited data.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wolfedude88:
Dont even know where you are getting your information. HSPA+ is 4g but not LTE, like others have said it depends on where you live.

Verizon and AT&T do not have Unlimited data anymore for new customers, (you can get the international version can get unlimited data on AT&T with the dumbphone media net plan) Sprint has unlimited data still, the only major US carrier with *true unlimited data*
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] done12many2:
It really doesn't matter if Verizon's is "true unlimited" as unlimited is only available to those who already have it.

In addition to that, those who have it will be forced to come off of it soon or face inability to upgrade devices at all.

http://www.usatoday.com/tech/news/story/2012-05-16/verizon-wireless-unlimited-data/55028254/1

Your statment of Verizon's customer service is a matter of opinion. Years ago when ending my service with Sprint, I made a call to Verizon. The Verizon customer service representative easily convinced me that I didn't want to deal with them too often.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] YoungAceAtlanta:
International version will only work great on AT&T, Its GSM not CDMA... therefore it will not work on Verizon ..

It will work on T-Mobile but you will have to settle for EDGE (2G)

HSPA+ is 4G.. you can get like 5-10mbps if your in a good area .. and some can go higher

It all depends on where you live, VZW sucks where I live I can't even get more than 2 bars.. AT&T is the only carrier that I can get full bars and 4G

but vzw might be good where you live. . Or maybe sprint might be better where you live... you just have to ask around or test it out for yourself .. they give you 14 days with a new contract so you can end it and get your money back ..
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] minsimpson:
Where did you get the info that unlimited HSPA+ Data is 10-15 bucks per month? I checked att website, they only have 5GB for 4G for 50 bucks per month.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] done12many2:
Like already stated, just do some research and you'll definitely find what you're looking for.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Baldilocks:
There are threads on the topic. The International GSIII is not an AT&T phone. So, as far as they know, you are using an old flip phone from 5 years ago. It doesn't require a smartphone data plan. You can get Unlimited MediaNet Data for $10-15 a month depending on other variables on your plan.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] minsimpson:
I see, but wouldnt they find out soon?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] minsimpson:
And what do you tell them in order to get unlimited 4G for 10-15 bucks a month? You just say you have an old flip phone and they will believe you?

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joshnichols189:
The AT&T Galaxy S3 does not have AWS bands for T-Mobile so it will only get EDGE. I am using an international S3 on T-Mobile right now and getting EDGE. I don't care as much because it saves battery and is not the worst thing in the world when I am around wifi all the time and have a hotspot anyways.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Indian9990:
See i'd be okay with that but Google voice text messages and calls don't always come through on edge so I need at least 3G lol
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joshnichols189:
Understandable haha. Whenever I know I will need HSPA speeds I just throw my hotspot in my bag otherwise EDGE is fine for updating my RSS feeds and light browsing when I'm out.

Same boat here. BUT news is that, T-mobile is going to roll out 1900 mhz frequency bands starting late 2012 :fingers-crossed: as a result of that failed att merger

Yes but by that time will HSPA+ still even be relevant considering they are also supposed to deploy LTE advanced in 2013
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheKid1:
What if you get the tmobile version and run it on Simple Mobile for $60 flat a month, no contract, unlimited everything. Thats what I have running my g2x and after hearing that the unlocked version of gs3 will only get 2g on simple mobile, i will get the tmobile version. Like people said, i guess you can get the unlocked version and hope and/or wait for tmobile to update their basebands, but who knows if/when that will happen. I think im going with the tmobile version.

The question i have now is, if you unlock your tmobile version, can you use it internationally?

Its kind of messed up that they dont tell you all these different things about each phone.

Anyway, there was someone who has the tmobile version on one of these threads and popped their att sim in and got 4g and everything else to work on att.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stefan2305:
I have Simple Mobile (works off of T-Mobile network). The phone works but I get nothing higher than 2G speeds (0.110Mbps down). It sucked. Lol. So what I did was switch to Straight Talk (AT&T version). Now I get my HSPA+ speeds (which are like a faux 3.5G)(4.125Mbps down). All i pay is $45 + $3 tax a month and I get unlimited everything. Best option in my opinion.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] whatsitsnamenow:
Is there a limit on the data plan on straight talk because I use about 10 gb a month on Sprint now?

What about the pre paid service will it work on at&t with my galaxy s3. The international and will it work on 3g or 2g
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ddix585:
hspa+

HSPA+ is an "enhanced 3g" witch is considered "4g" to gsm carriers. I have tmo galaxy s3 and my speed with hspa+ is anywhere from 41-43mb/s . unfortunately tmobile does not have LTE but will soon thanks to att breaching the clause they had when "they were going to buy/merge tmobile. as far as unlim data goes as others said for verizon and att new customers are not offered unlim data . verizon does their shared data now 1gb= $50 etc. Att is 3gb for $25 etc. tmobile is 2gb of 4g speed and after 2gb throttles down to 3g for $20, 5gb of 4g speed for $35 and 10gb for $60. Sprint is the only that still offers truly unlimited but its wimax. its data run off a cdma network. you have to toggle it on or off and drains battery. (may have changed now) where as all the gsm carriers it toggles by itself if you have 4g u have 4g if have 3g u have 3g. and doesnt kill battery. where i live (NY) verizon is the most reliable around here but they are one way too expensive and i prefer gsm.. weather u r looking on what carrier to get there is a lot to factor in . Location, Price, Service and CDMA or GSM. Too bad the gs3 i9300 can only rin edge (2g) on tmobile. im loving that quad core vs. us version dual core. atleast we got 2gb ram i guess ..:rolleyes:

EDIT!!! sry guys 21-23mb/s tmo says 42 but iv never seen it ..

Just calling a quick BS on that one. I've never seen HSPA+ speeds over 14Mbps on ANY carrier. Even those on LTE are lucky to see speeds that high.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] watsa:
Isnt T Mo supposed to max out at 42Mbps theoretically? Strange that you get speeds more than that

That and the i9300 is only capable of 21Mbps HSPA+ anyway.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] watsa:
Not the T Mo version of SIII which means that some one is stranded in wrong forum if he is actually getting 41-43Mbps lol :D
