Most devices require that you install every update from where you are, to the last update. Meaning if you are on Android 4.0.1 and ASUS released a 4.0.3 (ICS), 4.0.4 (ICS) and finally a 4.1.1 update you will have to install all three.

Does anybody have the tf700kl and if u do, can you do a video on the browser and how it is working for the community. Also, some benchmarks would be awesome and we would really appreciate it.

there's already a thread for the LTE version in Q&A section, it's (edit: was) only available in germany, only few people have it.

Any thoughts where I could buy a new unlocked HTC OneX?

I saw that I could buy no-contract at AT&T for $499 but I wanted to know if there are any better options for a new OneX from a reliable source?

(Excluding eBay or other similar auction sites).

Thanks!
[HTC One X] Wilks3y:
I'd check Amazon, eBay, and Misco to see if they're any good for you mate :)

You might want to figure out if you want Evita (AT&T version, dual core snapdragon) or Endeavoru (quad core Tegra 3, which is what this forum is for)
[HTC One X] AlbConst:
Thanks for the replies. Basically, I have a cousin coming to visit from the middle east who wanted to purchase the phone here because handsets are way more expensive in his country. I don't think he'd have much of a preference regarding the sub-model since all phones have the major 2G and 3G frequencies nowadays. Personally, I use a Galaxy S3 but he wanted the HTC OneX.

Was looking for something along the lines of NewEgg, etc. but they are sold out and I'd rather not order from a European website. Figure I'll probably just end up grabbing one from AT&T store unless anyone else has other thoughts.

Thanks!

Are you looking for a NIB, unopened or would a used one do?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cm0rr:
I have asked this question a couple of times now, please

can somebody help!

I have upgraded to ICS, and now there is no "empty folder"

button in the email recycle bin. I asked before, and someone

replied that I could delete them when connected to PC.

Am I supposed to connect with "USB storage" enabled, if so

where can I find the relevant folder to delete my "deleted"

emails.

Thanks for any help, this is very frustrating!

Hello,

I have a question I was looking at smartphones latley and I saw a HTC One X on amazon for only 440$ I am looking forward to buy this device I will buy a contract here in Germany for the phone will the internet (3g/4g) work on this phone with a german contract. In Germany the phone on Amazon costs 480€(620 us dollars) thats pretty expensive.

I thank everyone who will answer this question and I am really sorry for my bad english.

Thanks,

Thanks alot to everyone who answerd my question i really aprreciate it i am really happy that you replied i :)
[HTC One X] gkm8123:
Why not 4g?
[HTC One X] PCServe:
But you know, that you will have to pay import duty and VAT in Germany, right?

As far as I know that's 13.5% (import duty) + 19% VAT. Including shipping it won't be much cheaper than buying it in Germany directly and buying it in Europe makes it much easier with the warranty as well.

EDIT:

btw, I wanted to check shipping fees to Germany and it didn't even work: "We're sorry. This item can't be shipped to your selected destination. You may either change the shipping address or delete the item from your order."

Looks like you have to order from within the EU anyway. Maybe you can check different countries in the EU.

Hey guys,

since a few days I have this very annoying problem that apps disappear from my phone. I definitely don't unistall them or anything like that. When I reinstall the missing app all my data is still there. Is there a sollution for it?

I'm running Trickdroid 3.0.0
[HTC One S] mbernusg:
Similar issue
[HTC One S] el_smurfo:
Are they only disappearing from the drawer, i. e. Are the apk in data/app? Could just be randomly frozen which you can fix with titanium backup
[HTC One S] .TanTien:
The whole apk is disappearing...

Sent from my HTC One S using Trickdroid v3.0.0
[HTC One S] Mister J:
It could be a problem with the ROM or the way it was flashed. Backup everything and then wipe /data and /cache. Then reflash the ROM but DON'T restore your backup up. Wait and see if the app disappears by itself. If so, the ROM is the problem. If the problem seems to go away you can try to restore your backup.
[Xperia Play General] poo-tang:
Ok going to start this thread as today we see are first game available on Google's Play Store (Chaos Rings by Square Enix) become "This game cannot be played on rooted devices"

What does this mean for us Root users, Custom Rom users, Modders, Themer's and so on. Will we ever be able to play new games or run apps on our device's without losing are right to an open product?

Example Questions to start us off =

What is your thought's on this matter?

Are company's right to leave us out to protect there products for piracy?

Will this catch on?

Would you give up Root for a certain app you wanted?
[Xperia Play General] IE-coRe:
The question is, how long will it takes until we root user find a root using way to use not-for-rooted-phones apps on rooted phones :)
[Xperia Play General] poo-tang:
Lets hope this happens. Not sure if seen away to run Google films/video yet and guess this is the same sort of thing. Love the way that more of the people (like me) that brought this app are rooted (5star rating for people without root =25) and (1star rating for people with root = 33) Ha Ha.
[Xperia Play General] MilkyJoePD:
Just temp unroot in SU.
[Xperia Play General] poo-tang:
Does not work all the time and we should not have to anyway, having root is not illegal so why should we be judged for having it. Some of us buy their games/apps so we should be able to play them without having to Mod/Fool them.

PS. Already tried this with this app.
[Xperia Play General] Belzhadar:
Haven't run in to any app that wouldn't work because of my rooted phone yet. But when I eventually do, I will most likely use some bad language, may even hurt my hand banging it to my desk.
[Xperia Play General] cgrayson:
Seriously

I just sent this in an email to android_support@square-enix.com. Feel free to write your own complaint letter, one letter may fall on deaf ears, but maybe if enough of us let Square Enix know how we feel they'll do something about it? (Well, probably not, but it's worth a try.)

To Squeenix:

"Really? I can't believe this.

I WANT TO GIVE YOU MY $13 to play Chaos Rings, but now you're telling me you don't want my money?

Even though I've rooted my device, I pirate nothing, and am happy to pay developers for their hard work, but not when the developer INTENTIONALLY BLOCKS 20% OF THEIR USER BASE.

Seriously, what is the point of blocking root users? I'm not going to give up root, what I am going to give up is your games, and you'll be missing out on the revenue you could have had. In fact, by excluding android power users, you're forcing more people to pirate your game than ever before, especially once someone figures out how to hack your apk to make it work on root.

Now you look like a-holes, and have a horrible rating on the google play store from all the people who bought your game before you mentioned that it doesn't work on root. Way to go. I miss the good old days when Squaresoft used to be a respectable company that cared about making great games for the people who wanted to play them. Those days are long gone now."
[Xperia Play General] jcarbox:
The King of Fighters Android announced the same in its store description but doesn't block to run the game in rooted devices.

Square Enix is free to do it and at least they warning about it before you buy the game, however it's bad news for mobile gaming because denying the freedom to root the phone in the Android plataform is against the users and themselves.
[Xperia Play General] leetxperia:
Great fail to lose players/users of the app/game. I'd bet someone will make an patch. It will be same as "unhackable" Kindle Fire.
[Xperia Play General] cooldoud:
I bought the game because I wanted to support devs who give us more polished games than the usual freemium games you find all over the play store... Sad they see it that way, while you really don't need root to pirate games if you want to (note that I have root and have numerous games i paid for, and none that I pirated). The workaround for this specific game is so lame I can't understand why they thought it would be a good idea to implement (hint: rename your Superuser apk...). It is quite worrying though, and we have to hope that the backlash SE is getting on this will ensure that other devs won't follow the same route using more drastic measures to detect root (say, if chaos rings deleted the obb file when detecting root, I would have given up much more quickly...)

Also I think the email address from the play store is not monitored (got an automatic email back telling me to check their support site instead). I did receive a response back now asking me if my device was rooted... Will answer now and let them know what I / we think ;)

---------- Post added at 07:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:40 PM ----------

Just do a quick Google search.. The game is already available without a root check on some forum... Oh and probably without a license check too...
[Xperia Play General] ghostofcain:
Are they within their rights? Of course they are its their bloody game. Does it make good business sense? There is the real dilemma and i suppose only time will tell. IMHO it doesn't take root, or half a brain for that matter, to find alternative app stores with pirated games on it so I can't really see the justification for it. But at the end of the day to root or not is a choice and this should be one of your considerations when you make that choice.
[Xperia Play General] cooldoud:
Well here goes... Feel free to copy and paste part of the message if it can help ;)

Hi There,

Thanks for the feedback.

My device is indeed rooted, as are the devices from many other customers of Square Enix as is apparent from the numerous negative comments in the play store.

I am not sure whether this is the proper channel to voice my concerns, but I would like to urge SE to reconsider their position on this, as rooting and pirating games are two different activities altogether. Pirate versions of Chaos Rings are actually already available on the net, and these do not require root to run. And while I have always rooted my Android devices, I don't have a single pirated game, that is not the point of rooting.

By excluding rooted users, you are creating a very bad image for your company in the android community (I am sure you will see many articles pop up around the web about this in the coming days), not to mention you are losing customers and money for chaos rings but also many of your future titles.

And that's a shame really, because your titles are in general of much higher quality than many games available on the play store, and there most definitely is a market for them even among rooted users, as was proven recently with the success of final fantasy 3.

I would be thankful if you could forward this message to the relevant recipient, or if you could give me such an address to send it myself.

Thanks,

Ed
[Xperia Play General] Evo_Shift:
It only hurts them. My guess is it is a higher level executive decision or something that the people who made the decision don't even understand what root is. It definitely isn't the same as pirating...not even close.

The game will get hacked regardless which means this only hurts legitimate sales. If people can't buy it the right way they are much more likely to obtain it by other means.

I'd buy the game if i wanted to play it and was allowed but will not have the option now. If i get the itch to play it in the future i will play it regardless of whether square lets me pay them or not.
[Xperia Play General] leetxperia:
Wait. So "Not available.." for root users is here because of piracy? Cracked apps can be installed without root huh?
[Xperia Play General] cooldoud:
Well, they specifically look for the presence of a superuser package, so really, if it's not a very badly informed decision from some out of touch executive to counteract piracy, I have no idea why they would do that. To me, it sounds like "Hey, did you see Netflix tries to detect rooted device to prevent against piracy? Let's do the same for our app, surely it will prevent our games from being pirated!". That's obviously ridiculous and inefficient, especially seeing the way they implemented it. I mean, we know how to root our device, but don't know to hide our superuser app? Really? The fact that the game just crashes without a hint as to what happened is also frankly crap. At least tell me you won't allow me to play because I'm rooted, and let me know how I can get a refund.

I'm a bit torn now... If nobody buys this thing, then the same execs who made that smart decision will say once again that Android sales were poor because of piracy, and it will be ages before we see another title from them. So yeah, cant' really recommend you to buy (although the game itself seems quite good from my 30 minutes of play time), but if you bought it you've got two options:

- You can request a refund from Google (the support person I talked to at Square Enix specifically told me to do that if my device is rooted)

- Try this thread where we discuss a convenient way to hide/unhide superuser app through a script http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1932078 (you might also be able to use some "temp unroot" app, but the one I tried didn't work on my Note)
[Xperia Play General] LordBattleBeard:
No question. Its their product and so have every right to apply whatever limitations they want to it. With that said, its the right of the buyer to leave 1 star and refund the payment, should they so wish ;)
[Xperia Play General] thatsupnow:
Yea they can do whatever they want but if everyone stops buying they're stuff then they'll definitely think twice

[Xperia Play General] TheCraig:
I was not going to even buy Chaos Ringss, I'm only sending you this because: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1931778 and I figured I would help them.

So I take it your assuming because we have root it means we're criminals or pirates, I root, but I don't pirate anything, in my opinion all users who know how to root know how to obtain pirated games, I bet there is a cracked Chaos Rings around somewere with root check disabled, etc... Your only encouraging pirating by making rooted users who want this game go else were to get this game.

I don't support pirating, and I do root every device I have, and that isn't because I pirate anything, I root to have more customization options for my Android Device.

Either way you will lose business with this.

Copy and paste if you like.
[Xperia Play General] CharliesTheMan:
Yeah of course they have the right. That's what consumerism and free enterprise is all about. But we have the right to read the description and not buy their games, and not buy any of their products because you don't believe in what they're doing. Your wallets will speak louder than anything.
[Xperia Play General] leetxperia:
Well. They wont sell much copies if almost anyone has root.
[Xperia Play General] TLRtheory:
This actually isn't the first I've seen of this.

Celes Arca just f*cked everyone over with an update that removed compatibility for rooted users, as did Legend of Master III... and even further back with Demon Hunter (and they are all appropriately catching loads of flak for it).

What sucks here is the assumed motive. Chances are someone's motive for rooting could be as pure as getting the most out of their device's storage (which is a big thing especially for Xperia Play owners)... but since we're lumped in with the (minority) who may try to use hacks to get an edge in a game, we're cut off?

Yeah that's BS.

[Xperia Play General] cooldoud:
Well it would seem like Square Enix is seeing the light suddenly... that's great news if you ask me :)

We are aware of the issue affecting Android users who attempt to download Chaos Rings with rooted devices. We are currently working towards applying an update that will grant those players access to the game and we expect this update to go live sometime next week. We thank the Android community for its patience and continued support as we continue to bring great mobile games to the Android platform.

The way they put it, you would think it was a bug rather than the consequence of morons in suits not thinking through the consequences of their actions.
[Xperia Play General] Evo_Shift:
Probably just hoping the 5 stars will drown out the 1 stars by next week lol...
[Xperia Play General] sewer56lol:
This was possible to do before this thread started. Disable root through your Superuser/SuperSu apks.

Then (this is an idea) once you start the game turn on your root. Simple?
[Xperia Play General] eksasol:
The last game I bought from Square was FFvii. With the exception they have acquired some of my favorite series like Deus Ex, so I bought Human Revolution, but I have low hope for the direction they will steer the future gameplay. I predict the Tomb Raider reboot will be a lame ass Metal Gear clone with brain dead puzzles.

Dear All

I need some help

Got a new HTC One XL today (UK, Everything Everywhere)

Unlocked the bootloader using HTC Dev

Tried to flash recovery (recovery-clockwork-5.8.4.0-endeavoru.img)

Now I get the "This build is for development purposes only ...."

I can sometimes get to the bootloader but the PC does not recognise the phone when it goes into bootloader

When i choose recovery it boots back to the splash screen with "This build is for development purposes only ...." again

I am lost for things to do now and desperately some help

Let me know - thanks

Caolfin
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] joshuadjohnson22:
Don't use CWM on this phone, it has issues.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] caolfin:
Ok, I've also tried to flash the twrp .img file using the command

fastboot flash recovery ****.img

this did nothing as well

when I choose the recovery option from the bootloader menu it goes immediately to the white htc screen with the "this build is for ...." stuff

Any ideas ?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] bimmernut318:
Is the phone an evita or endevour? (quad core or dual core). If it is an evita, you may have a little bigger problem due to that endeavor cwm flash.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] caolfin:
Oh no

Its an EVITA

mainver : 2.34.61.2

I've also tried to flash twrp but every time I go to recovery from bootloader I get the white screen with the "development purposes" stuff

What do you think ?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] mikelebz:
That development purposes only is normal if you unlock using the super-cid...there is nothing you can do about that...mine has it as well.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] caolfin:
Hi Mike

I've no problem with the writing on it if I could get it to recovery or to load ICS past this screen I would be very happy

Any ideas as to how I would get past this ? it seems to be in some sort of bootloop or bootcrash
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] 18th.abn:
You flashed the cwm recovery for the endeavor quad-core...........

Download this twrp recovery,

http://db.tt/sXmdepmX

Stick it in your adb/fastboot folder

Boot phone into your bootloader, make sure it says fastboot USB

From cmd prompt type

fastboot devices

Make sure it device serial# shows up

Now type-

fastboot flash recovery twrp.img

Should get-

Sending

Writing

Ok

Now resend the same command by pressing up arrow, then enter.

Should get the same readout

Now on the phone, navigate to the recovery option and select it.....you should have twrp now.........and don't flash endeavor device ANYTHINGS anymore:beer:
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] caolfin:
yes, i think that is what i have done

now i cant get past the white htc sp@ash screen with the warning message
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] qwertyaas:
Edit:nm
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] caolfin:
Thank you so much for that - I now have TWRP working and its great

I still have a problem that the phone will not boot past the HTC screen that has the "this build is for development purposes..."

It reboots and reboots but never goes past this screen

Do I need a ROM as well ?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] qwertyaas:
Yes.. You need a rom.

Dl it on your pc, boot into twrp and mount the sd to transfer it.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] caolfin:
qwertyaas

Very much appreciate your responses

ok, I have moved the cm10 evita jellybean ROM over and flashed it - all seemed to go successfully

Used TWRP to factory reset beforehand

Used TWRP to turn the phone off

Pressed the phone button to turn the phone on

Phones boots immediately to white HTC splash screen with the "this build is for development purposes..." and reboots after about 10 seconds, and reboots and reboots

Never gets past this point

Any ideas ?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] 18th.abn:
Your probably on hboot 1.14, so....the cm10 Rom.zip, on your pc, unzip it and you will see a boot.img, put the boot.img in your adb fastboot folder, boot phone into bootloader....cmd prompt type

fastboot flash boot boot.img

Do it a second time for good measure, then type

fastboot reboot

Should be good
