[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] JoeOhio:
I spent a lot of time in the AT&T looking at the s3 and the one x. While I liked the s3, I just kept going back to the one x. The screen was awesome. There was also a $100 difference. It the prices were about the same I might have gone with the s3. I also prefer sense. Samsung does have the marketing thing down though.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kwanbis:
Hello guys. I'm trying to upgrade from a Samsung Galaxy S2 to either a Samsung Galaxy S3 or to the HTC One X.

I love my S2, the only think I do not like that much, besides samsung delaying rom releases a little too much for my taste, is that battery does not lasts a full day with moderate to heavy use, it lasts about 6/8 hours, and that it gets really hot.

Both phones have been out for a while already, so on your most objetive opinion, what are the cons you wish you would have known about the S3, and what is your experience regarding battery life under moderate to heavy use, and hotness of the phone?

Do you see any other advantage of one over the other? Do you whish to have bought the other?

I know there are hundred of reviews, but i'm asking for real experience here.

Thanks.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestK00450:
The HTC One X is obsolete in my opinion for 3 reasons:

1. No Micro-SD card slot

2. Non-removable battery

3. Terrible battery life

For those three reasons I don't think the phone is even worth considering over the Galaxy S3. if it had a removable battery and a Micro-SD card slot I would have gotten it over the S3 though.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ForcedZucchini:
In addition to this, the S3 has a lot more development going for it, since it is multi carrier and has no locked bootloader
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EliWay:
I'm not sure you're gonna be able to find unbiased opinions when you're posting on the GS3 forum.

Source? The battery life on the One X is absolutely amazing. It has better battery life than the Galaxy S3 by far due to the screen.

Engadget says:

And AnandTech goes even further. Stating that One X gets a whopping 9.65 hours on 3G browsing , 5.5 hours on LTE and 10.35 on WiFi.

Edit: By comparison: The Galaxy S3 gets 8.3 hours on 3G (Versus 9.65 on the One X) and a mere 7.6 hours on WiFi, almost 3 HOURS less than the One X USA.

You call the One X battery terrible ?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KentuckyHouse:
You clearly have no idea what you're talking about.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] id10terrordfw:
Agreed, from someone who has both.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spiderjerusalem:
I have had 2 of both, the one x has awesome battery life as many others have said. the camera on both of my one x's were way better than my first s3 but the s3 i just traded my one x for now is very good and on level with my one x. Anyone having camera issues (mainly bluring whenever its not super bright) i would say try an exchange if you can, I ran almost every rom on both s3's and that wasn't it 1st s3 was definitely a hardware issue.

One X:

Screen Looks nicer (only slightly)

Better Battery

Build Quality

S3:

More Development

SD card slot

Removable battery

more ram

More accessories (with all the carriers in the us and international versions being the same an android device is finally getting tons of options for cases/ etc)

Google Wallet, yes you have to hack it on but it works and with the new update its actually useful as you can use any cards.

Just my opinions, both are great phones but If you are big into flashing go s3.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] corythug:
I've said this in each of these threads thus far and ill say it again... As far as hardware the only thing the sgsiii has over one x is ram. Other then that the one x is a smidge ahead in everything else. Obviously the soc is the same so that a non issue. However development on the sgsiii is staggering at this point. Crushing the one x in that regard. We were one of the first with OFFICIAL cm10 preview builds and one of the first with OFFICIAL cm10 nightly support, the one x has neither AFAIK. Unofficial builds yes, official nope(correct me if I'm wrong there). Development was the sole reason I jumped ship from the one x to the sgsiii. And I definitely think I made the right move in that regard. Get the sgsiii, you won't be disappointed. Or get the one x, it's a kick ass phone. But I think you may get sgsiii envy. Of course everyone here will favor the sgsiii, and I noticed you made the same thread over in HTC land, there everyone will tell you the one x is better. So... These threads won't help much Imo.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestK00450:
You clearly have no idea what "In my opinion" means.

The majority of people close to me who recently upgraded chose the One X over the S3. Pretty much all of them complain about the battery life constantly. Also, while I was taking a train back home with a friend, we spent the entire ride watching videos on Netflix. His battery was nearly 35% more depleted than mine was. If it matters we watched different shows but for the same amount of time.

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EliWay:
I have a hard time believing you have a bunch of friends who bought the One X on contract and then ALL switched to the S3 at full price just because of the battery. Also that comparison with your friend is useless. Were you guys both on 100% when you started watching the video? I highly doubt you made a note of how much his battery was at before you watched the video.

And yes, we do have an idea of what "in my opinion" means. It means you have zero facts, source and are being biased.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soapbubble:
The One X has an infinitely superior camera in my opinion. I hate the camera on the galaxy. I'm also a big dropbox user so the ext sd isn't as huge a deal for me either. I'd have stayed One X if they had proper multitasking. It was awful on the HOX. Awful. I can't stress that enough. Awful.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] id10terrordfw:
2.2 made improvements in this. I keep coming back to the HOX because even with less RAM on a stock based ROM it feels smoother, especially in the MMS app with ~5000 texts. As a test, I did an SMS Backup and Restore backup, wiped both databases clean and cleared data on the MMS apk, then restored the same backup to both. (I also did a full wipe later as well) and the HOX doesn't stutter on the least while the GS3 does, especially when trying to back out of a conversation with over 200 messages. The only way the GS3 is as good is running an AOSP based ROM. Odd I know, but it is empirical evidence based on my usage.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] corythug:
Custom roms have alleviated much of the multitask issue, but I wouldn't call it a non issue quite yet. My girly has my one x and I still play around with it, soon she will be getting the white one she wanted as this happened to the Grey one:

I tried to unlock the bootloader of w8 it is dated later than 11w29

because of what the thread in Everything X8/W8 http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1590266

says

with the latest se tweaker tool.

I followed the guide and went through the process and the tweaker tool said succesfully unlocked bootloader.

but then, when I turned off the phone to check it on S1 it

wouldnt go on flashmode nor power on and it wont charge as well.

Is there anyway that i could do?
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CtrlAltDelIrl:
It's maybe not bricked..

Take the battery out for a minute then reinsert and plug in charger..

Leave for 4hrs charging without touching the phone.. It might turn itself on..
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stamatis:

[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johmkel:
Thank you for your replies.

I guess I'm gonna have to try first what CtrlAltDelIrl suggested, and if won't work then cause I am not under warranty anymore, I would have to take it to a repair shop like what the rest of you agreed on.

I just hope it wouldn't cost me much to have it repaired.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Soap:
In the same boat buddy. I think I read somewhere that if you take a cue tip and rip off some of the padding so it can fit with a little padding still stuck to it, you can clean it out a bit and then wet the tip with a bit of rubbing alcohol to get a better cleaning out of it. It may help or you could be like me and have hardware failure and need to take it in.

I have installed Gin2JellyBean on my R800i, but it does not seem to work.

I have flashed DooMKerneL, and using CWM, I flashed Gin2JellyBean. I rebooted my system, and it got passed the DooMKerneL, but it always resets itself after a minute of staying on the Gin2JellyBean boot screen.

How can I fix this problem? Thanks in advance :)
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Selim873:
Make sure you format the data, cache, dalvik cache, and system partitions before you ever flash any rom.

I recommend flashing the latest stock ftf firmware for your phone, reboot and reactivate your phone, then flash DooMKernel. Once you've done that, then format all that I mentioned above in the recovery, THEN flash the firmware, then reboot.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RoboticBuddy:
Would R800i_4.0.2.A.0.58_Enhanced.ftf be considered "stock"?

Yes. Reflash stock except kernel since you flashed kernel already. Then go to cwm wipe everything and flash Rom.

Also, please don't post direct links. It would be best to direct the readers to the ROM's thread. If the ROM doesn't have one, it shouldn't be listed since it's not tested.

[Galaxy Ace S5830i Android Development] GermainZ:
If a ROM doesn't have its own thread, one can consider it's dead. All updates may or may not be made by the same author -if a company has no building, no address, no phone number, how can you trust it? And if you trust it once, how do you know the next dude who pretends to be from it is genuine?

EDIT: Also refer to post #6. Notice the question? "What's not working?". This is another reason why a ROM must have its thread. If it doesn't, where do all bug reports go? How will it ever get improved? As I've said, it's dead.
