[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Tophaholic:
I have been using the AT&T HTC One X for the last 3 days or so and would like to share my thoughts/review on this phone.

First of all a bit of a background - In the past I have used iPhone 3GS, Blackberry 9800, Palm Pre Plus, Atrix, Atrix2 and Samsung Galaxy S2 - all on AT&T network. SOme of these were used for just a few weeks before switching over to the next within the 30 days windows. The SGS2 has been my daily driver for the past 6 months or so and I have been fairly active installing custom ROMs and kernels from the xda forums.

I had decided to wait for the SGS3 but when I went to my local Sams club - they had a sample/fake model of the sprint SGS3 and my first thought after playing with it was - damn - this is just some cheapest piece of plastic ever used on a phone - it just looked terrible. Sitting next to it was the gray HOX and there was just no comparison build quality wise. Everything on the HOX oozes quality. So right then and there bought the HOX - still in my 30 days window so will play with a real SGS3 when it comes out and make the final decision.

Now - time for the review:

+ BUild quality - best of any android phone I have handled.

+ IPS screen is beautiful. COming from SGS2 the screen just looks awesome

+ loving Sense4. Touchwiz is just too black and dull. Like the brightness and the use of whites and light green on Sense

+ Battery life is really amazing (Xi40 ROM). My SGS2 barely lasts a full day with about 2-3 hrs screen on time. The HOX lasts a full day with some to spare even with 4 hrs screen time. This is unbelievable given the IPS screen (used auto brightness) and the 1.5GHz processor

+ Camera is pretty quick- better than SGS2

+ Higher resolution helps a lot - coming from SGS2

+ touch response/sensitivity is great compared to SGS2. Not sure about SGS3 but HOX is almost iphone like.

- Hate the recessed power button. Is a pain to find in the night/morning

- Size is a lil bit too big for my hands but getting used to it. The SGS2 size seems perfect for my hands. Power button placement worsens this

- Wish there was an sd card slot

- Stock Sense4 is pretty laggy - Switched to Xi40 ROM and its working flawlessly with absolutely zero lag - seriously!!!

- Bootloader unlock/rooting was a bit more tedious than Sammy phones but what the heck

- Multitasking really is bad. I am hoping some the devs here can fix that in the custom ROMs/kernels once the source is out.

In Summary - loving this phone - obviously with the custom ROM on it. Now if only I can find a good case which will not hide the beautiful exerior of the phone. Any suggestions? I want a case that adds covering on the buttons so they become easier to press but still not hide too much of the phone's exterior and not add too much bulk

Update1: forgot to mention....another positive about the IPs screen over amoled/pentile display....scrolling does not give you a headache....if you do not understand what I mean just try flick scrolling on sgs2

What do you mean by "iPhone-like"?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Loneeagle14:
I believe he was talking about the smoothness and fluidity of the ui
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Tophaholic:
^^^^yep....that's what I meant....e.g. the weight of scrolling and touch sensitivity. Typically on android if you flick scroll it will scroll real fast which is sometimes irritating....on the hoc if you flick scroll it is nicely dampened
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] BertLingo:
Be careful what you wish for regarding a case that covers the power button. With the awkward placement of the button, adding more material over the top of it means you really have trouble mashing it down to get a response.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ethantarheels123:
the case I'm using right now is the amzer shellster, and it is awesome. Even though it doesnt cover the buttons like you want, It maintains the beauty of the phone. It is also the only slim hard case that I know of that covers the camera so you can put down the phone without worrying about scratching the camera lens.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] _MetalHead_:
Great. Now I have to buy ANOTHER case. Thanks for that.

Q: Does the camera line up perfectly? Or does it seem like it was made for the international One X?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] kleeman7:
Yes, thanks for that. Lol.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] live4nyy:
I believe they make the Amzer Shellster for both International and XL versions. It should specify. I have the correct one and everything lines up perfect. ;)

EDIT: Here's the one that I got:

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] _MetalHead_:
Sweeeet! And it's eligible for prime! Just ordered it :)
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Crookedsoul:
Will definitely order once they have it in white. thats slick! Love the way it leaves the top open.

Didn't update my current small city but im sure it will come in handy when traveling.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] zounduser:
hey did u install it manually? i tried flashing the zip and it didnt stick? i think im gonna have to figure it out and get back to you guys.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] njfoses:
I installed manually. The updated list might not have my small town i live in. I also tried changing permissions to rw,r,r to no avail.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] zounduser:
ok im doing it manually right now. hey try searching missoula MT for me real quick will ya bro.

i just figured i would try the zip made for the one x since the phones are so alike.

stupid question probably but did u reboot?

edit.......i just installed this manually and it worked like a charm!! enjoy guys!!! and im sorry your town wasnt in the upgrade.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] njfoses:
When i search my city is now listed, the city you wanted me to search for is listed as well. The widget is not updating the city though and is just displaying the state for me.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] zounduser:
where are you? you must be in a pretty small town? before the mod was the widgit showing your town bro?

because before and after the mod it is showing my correct city.

i had it confirmed from someone using the one s that when traveling after the mod a lot of cities showed that didnt before! so the mod is deffenitley working, must just be the town your in broham! that sucks im sorry man.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] njfoses:
The city was not on the widget before or after. I did some digging and it appears this just updates cities you can manually select. They dont transfer to the locate services. The last few posts here explain it. If somebody could figure out how to get the new cities added to the locate service that would be awesome!

http://www.teambamf.net/topic/3378-...s-for-your-htc-stock-weather-app-v34-3-12-12/
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] zounduser:
yup. thats exactly what it does bro! still pretty sick!!! because when i travel back home to montana to visit family after the mod, those cities show!!

and thank you for your quick replies!!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] SteelH:
This mod is known to cause issues for people in certain geographical locations. We did this on Warm, and found out many people had issues. Use this at your own risk.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] zounduser:
Really? If u followed my link......u would have seen, i posted that it was causing some people problems. But u dont have to come in here n b like.........use at your own risk!! Because its easily reversable! :D, not gonna blow up, or brick a device!!!

And a lot of users are thankful for it, as am i when i travel back home to little cities. So please, dont come in this thread pushing people away from a good mod! Thanks
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] SteelH:
I will warn other users as I please.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] vlatinlove:
This place is to help others with issues most have encountered not to make sure someones thanks meter can be increased, It will not affect you much by someone else just stating that others have experienced issues. And just to make it clear every mod on XDA is a use at your own risk, unless you are going to guarantee anyone a replacement phone if there is the slightest chance someone actually gets a brick device.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Rocklee99:
thank you sir
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] zounduser:
Ya, i agree............but i already stated if anyone had problems, to post it!!!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] zounduser:
Mods close this thread please. Thanks
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] zounduser:
Ungreatfull!! And not only that but i stated in my original post for users to state problems!! Which if u read my op, u would c........nobody has stated one problem. I dont care, thats it mods please delete the thread here.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] zounduser:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1740129

As shown in the original post. Not one problem. And i state clearly if anyone has a problem to report it. I really dont need someone else maintaining my thread....but thanks anyways!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] vlatinlove:
Calm down Hellboy, we were just stating that there might be issues not for you to ask to close your thread and then re-post the same thing you have mentioned already several times.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] zounduser:
Hellboy? Lol! :D im not trying to b a **** here bro. I was just stating that in the original post, it states if problems occur then report. But its all good. Im over it. LOL

And this isnt my original thread, i would rather maintain my original thread. That way i can c if problems occur more easily.

Anyways......sorry guys for acting childish, lets move forward please.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] papabri:
Just put on this jelly bean ROM, and when trying to save files from dropbox onto the internal sd it says "error". Audiogalaxy, another app I use, won't allow me to save copies of my songs to the internal SD either. I feel like there's a setting somewhere that's preventing me from save files onto the internal sd, but can't find it. In ICS I was able to find it, pretty sure in Settings -> Storage, but no dice in Jelly Bean.

Any help?

I have you made sure settings>developer options>protect USB storage is not checked. That's where I'd start.

Just fired up Wugs toolkit 1.4 and set full file read/write/execute permissions to all those directories (or at least tried to). Still nothing.

Wanted to update that I was able to rename the DCIM folder to DCIM1 and now it can save camera pics to the phone. I still can't open up a dropbox file due to "storage full or unavailable".
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
I think you have an issue. You shouldn't have to grant any extra permissions for the apps to write to the SDcard, as there isn't actually an SDcard or partition for it. It's just a symlink to /data/local, a virtual "SDcard".

All my apps work fine writing/reading the "SDcard".
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] o_z0ne:
Have you made sure settings>developer options>protect USB storage is not checked. That's where I'd start.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] papabri:
Yessir this is not checked.

EDIT: also noticed that when I take a picture, it doesn't save it to the phone. The pic just disappears after it's taken.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JaiaV:
Try fixing permissions and checking the permissions/owner on /sdcard/ and /data/media (where the /sdcard folder is symlinked from). There have been lots of threads about sdcard permissions and Jelly Bean,.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
That's probably true, considering the GNex doesn't have a MicroSD slot :p .
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] papabri:
haha yes true.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] papabri:
Solved this issue by doing this:

Reflash stock. Hold off on restoring data/media. There seems to be a problem with it in v1.4.

{{ WugFresh }}

I since put back on the JB rom and have full access with no issues. My issue was when I restored my backup to the phone, the permissions were messed up.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cmstlist:
What you probably had was an ownership issue, not permissions.

So if you bump into this again, try chown in ClockworkMod in ADB shell over USB.

Hi all. I have been looking everywhere for an answer to my question so if it has already been posted please just post the link and dont be rude, thanks.

I have an mhl adaptor to use my nexus on my tv and i love this but i have a problem that i cant believe would not have been resolved already... Can i shut off my screen while using the adaptor. Screen on drains the battery and i dont need it while watching netflix.

Please help!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Highriser:
If you turn off the screen, the screen doesn't show up on the TV or monitor. Either way, you have to have you phone plugged in to use the adapter anyway (At least the Samsung one makes you have it plugged in)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wilsonlam97:
Yeah. "Extended" screens not allowed? Maybe the hardware only allows for duplicating screen.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] diamond_4g64:
Yeah its a drag because i dont even need the sceen to imput commands since i use a ps3 controler to control it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] player911:
Every HDMI output I've seen does this. Even on my G2x with a dedicated HDMI port. My Asus Transformer does this too. Kinda sucks on battery. Not only are you running a PSx emulator, running a bluetooth controller, using MHL, but also forced to run with the screen on chomping up the battery.

I guess it is just the way they are wired up.

Before you start, read it about 5 times, seriously. The hack kit was designed to be somewhat confusing/to get you used to reading. Once you understand it, you'll see that it is quite simple. If you don't understand something, search for it, and if after that you still have problems, come back here and we will help you out.

The earlier theme wont be updated as our dev account was hacked and all apps and data was wiped off last week. We wont also be able to use that old dev account anymore cause of some personal problems with whose account it was (it wasnt ours), so we are gonna buy a new account and themes will be republished.

Currently ZEON HULK theme is done for a first release, but i am working on red theme already and bilanoid is working on a special one of its kind theme( U guys will love it). ZEON TANG theme (Earlier knows as ZEON RUSTY ORANGE) will be worked on after red theme so those who liked it gotta wait for some weeks.
