[HTC One X] BarryH_GEG:
You're spot on. When I got the One X there was no concrete info out yet on the SGS3 and people were still talking about a ceramic body and the Exynos 5250. I also expected a complete revamp of TW so that both the h/w and s/w would be "revolutionary." And no one thought it wouldn't at least have a SAMOLED+ HD display. I think we can all admit it ended up being pretty "evolutionary." At the end of the day, without any modifications, the One X and SGS3 are pretty comparable.

Speaking of modifications, we're really having two separate discussions. One, the phone as it comes out of the box which is the way 95% of people will use it and two, each phone's h/w as a development platform. For the masses, it really is a toss-up. Since they are far less concerned about specs, things like the display and looks tip in the One X's favor and things like the S-gadgets tip in the SGS3's. We also overlook price and the One X with 32GB of memory for 10-15% less than the SGS3 with 16GB will sway a lot more people than you think. As for which is the better developer's phone HTC's S-ON and voiding the warranty for unlocking the bootloader certainly doesn't help the One X's case. That aside, I’ll leave it to the devs to demonstrate which phone ends up being best. ;)
[HTC One X] hamdir:
n I don't call a phone bad because it has over 13 hours of screen off times n 3.5 hours screen on, even with full connectivity

u r not as objective as u claim given ur response about the sgs3 I sold

I don't know about u people, but in my country almost everyone is making fun of the s3 even s2 lovers, the only answer, it screams cheap in design, build and software
[HTC One X] Nitin985:
HTC have better updates and softwar

Sgs has better rooting/ flashing abilities

Comparing the phone in day to day life is very similar. Both are amazing phones, its up to you
[HTC One X] BarryH_GEG:
From the horse’s mouth. ;) Coming from using TW for eleven months and playing with TW4 on a SGS3 I give HTC a lot of credit for how they've evolved Sense. And that is something that makes a difference to the masses.

Samsung: Our software still needs work

Chris Davies, Jun 18th 2012

Samsung’s new CEO has reconfirmed the company’s focus on improving software for mobile devices like tablets and smartphones, highlighting key areas where the “customer experience” needs work. Kwon Oh-hyun highlighted software in his first speech as the new CEO, the WSJ reports, echoing comments the company made back in August 2011. “A particular focus must be given to serving new customer experience and value by strengthening soft capabilities in software, user experience, design, and solutions” he said today.

[HTC One X] slimslim:
Just picked ONE up today :) after about an hour of playing with both, hox and sgs3. Love it so far.
[HTC One X] BarryH_GEG:
Assuming the SGS3 is the "number one" phone on the market if for no other reason than total sales, does anyone not believe the One X is at least the second best phone on the market?
[HTC One X] randombirt:
And you totally missed my point, when myself and others "gave our input" in a similar thread on the sgs3 forum we were defending our purchases, i fail to see how what you're doing is different. Maybe you can explain?
[HTC One X] shadehh:
1st or 2nd. Next year this phone is history and will get run over like an orange being run over by a truck in term of performance. Truth is, both devices if optimized correctly will have unnoticeable performance difference, at least hardware wise. It really just comes down to battery life in the end and preference. I never used sd slot, never carried around a second battery etc etc. Others carry around 2 million batteries and 2 million 64gb sd slot cards. Shoop de whoop.

Now if everyone would excuse me, i'm going to the gas station to get me a beer, i could a beer today, om nom :)
[HTC One X] barondebxl:
hey Barry, here's a perfect example, his last paragraph.

To you Hamdir, when did you hear me say the HOX was a bad phone?
[HTC One X] BarryH_GEG:
Actually, if you look at forum debates for BMW vs. MB, Ford vs. Chevy, Delta Airlines vs. United, various sports teams, etc., they all look just like this. Both Samsung and HTC would be proud that their products ignite so much passion in people. ;)
[HTC One X] barondebxl:
I have already explained myself.
[HTC One X] barondebxl:
Yeah I know it's everywhere but his last paragraph was epic you must admit that LMAO !
[HTC One X] ste1164:
Well as long as hamdir is happy with his phones thats all that matters. Same for android/iOS arguments. They are phones and if the person using them enjoys it why change. Just because one does less etc. Seems silly to make someone switch to something that they will be unhappy with and that will become a chore to use.
[HTC One X] randombirt:
Yep, i got it... You're not listening.
[HTC One X] barondebxl:
Sure.
[HTC One X] -josh-:
Lol how can a bloke rocking a pink tank top comment on looks (joking)

In all seriousness like already stated it really comes down to the two things

Better screen (of 2 great screens) and build quality

Battery life (and removable battery) and expendable memory

P.s. these threads are pretty funny I love reading them in both forums. And what it tells you is that both phones are awesome. It is a hard choice and that's a good thing for anyone not dumb enough to use an iphone ;)

[HTC One X] godutch:
Ah but this is completely different, since apple is actively trying to worsen my user experience on android with their unethical patent suits, so every idevice sold gives apple more ammo to worsen my user experience. I would be very happy if apple filed for bankruptcy today, so I know I can keep using my device as a bought it and not have to lose features like universal search like the sgs3 lost today or overscroll bounce, like the sgs2 lost last year...

What? Hahahaha don't make me laugh dude you're a small fish, I've had debates with people that actually know what they are talking about, make sense and are objective. I'm just messing around with you.

You can't bash someone who actually owned the HOX, it would have been different if I never owned it.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Fishfutter:
Hi, this is my first post so please be patient with me :)

Today I finally decided to update my Nexus from 4.0.4 to 4.1.1 up till now I have been running ARHD.

I decided to flash the new MinCo ROM, everything went smooth, I did a Nandroid backup and used Superwipe Light.

Then flashed the ROM via CW, the phone booted fine and I restored my apps and I thought everything was fine till I checked the system information. There it says I am running 4.1 and no mention of MinCo ??? It shows Francos Kernel though :confused:

Did I just out myself as a noob or what went wrong ?

Help is much appreciated :)

PS. Love XDA :fingers-crossed:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] eqjunkie829:
I just looked at the build.prop file of my minco download and it shows 4.1.1. in the ro.build.version.release which would dictate what shows up under version. Maybe you downloaded a different rom?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Fishfutter:
I downloaded the ROM from the official source.

Here are my steps.

1. Downloaded ROM, Gapps

2. Backed up the phone using CW

3. Wiped the phone using Super Wipe Lite Nexus

4. Flashed ROM using CW

5. Flashed Gapps using CW

6. Rebooted the phone

7. Restored Apps via Titanium Backup

Should I have done a full wipe? I didn't want to loose all my stuff.

Thanks for the help by the way.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] eqjunkie829:
Whenever you are flashing a new base you want to do a full wipe. I'm not sure what happened with your download and why it says 4.1 instead of 4.1.1. Probably not worth losing sleep over though.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Fishfutter:
Ok seems like I have to wipe the whole thing then.

Will post the results later.

Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Fishfutter:
So I did a full wipe and flashed the ROM again. This time the System UI kept crashing.

This kept happening over and over again. I wiped and re installed 4-5 times with the same result.

Then I downloaded the the ROM and the bootloader again and flashed it again. This time it worked and it stopped crashing.

The ROM then showed 4.1.1.

I then flashed Gapps and MinCo+ Stock Mod and after reboot it was showing Android 4.1 again!

I really have no idea what is going on ???

Hi,

I was hoping to use a wired ethernet connection to my N7.

I was reading it was possible and I happen to have the cables from before. A micro usb to usb female and then a usb to ethernet adapter. Mine is based on ADM 8515 and it doesn't work.

I haven't rooted or done anything else yet.

I have seen reports that another usb to ethernet adapter works, based on AX88772.

Anyone managed to get this to work? Does it work out of the box with the AX88772? Anyone managed to get it to work with this ADMTek one, or any other chipset?

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dr.ketan:
Rooting, doesn't erase anything.

But yes it is always advisable to keep backup of your important data, though you may have limited option to backup on unrooted device. some suggestion

Contact - inbuilt import/export or google sync

Msgs - use SMS restore backup appl

Applications - Non root version of My backup application. though you can backup only app not data of appl like game level, credential etc.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] aurator:
Thanks for the suggestions.

One last query. Is it necessary to flash another ROM after rooting the phone? If so, could you please suggest me an easy to use ROM and a tutorial on how to flash it would be really helpful!

P.S - I apologize for being such a newbie but this is the first Android phone I'm using!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] CJSlim79:
In short - No.

No need to flash another ROM once rooted although it's preference. You can happily root your stock ROM and maintain root access which will allow you greater control and of course the ability to run Root only apps.

If you wanted to try out other ROM's, check out the development section, Most ROM's have a video or step by step walkthrough on how to install..

No need to apologise, and if you've not used it already - here's a great thread that should answer a lot of your questions;

Now, Can i directly flash the custom ROMs (for eg. ICS Stunner 1.6.26 which is an ICS ROM) through CWM?
