Overall, T-Mobile's value plan is a better deal - not just over the life of the contract, but what you pay in store as well. Also no upgrade fees or required features. Third parties can't offer it.

That is, of course, unless you call customer care and kick up dirt.. But either way, they'll probably get you to commit to a classic plan.. Which means locked in features.. Which I don't like :)

They don't want people on the classic plan. They are trying to get everyone on the value plan.

Hey all, Friday recieved my pre-order AT&T unit, and this morning I realized when selecting a dark or black wallpaper for the Lockscreen there is a rather pronounced light bleed thru. So black isn't really black,and the bleed thru of course isn't uniform so it looks like of shadowy?? Now on the Homescreen black is black and everything looks great. It's just the lockscreen.....dude really....seriously! Or do I have a defective unit?? Can someone give it a go and let me know. TIA

im curious if anyone has tried the battery saving mode as always on yet? i havent even toggled it on at all but im curious to see how much it really helps.
[Nokia Lumia 920] foxbat121:
Even ms said not recommended on that setting. It will stop all background tasks as well as email pushing or auto fetching of email. Basically turn it into a dumb phone. You might as well turn off data connection which will definitely boost battery life.

I wouldn't toggle it unless you need to, um, save battery life. I've used it many times on my previous Windows Phone devices when I'm going to be out of reach of an outlet to re-charge it and at that time all I care about is having it available to use as "dumb phone" to make, well, a phone call.

Remember if you battery saving mode is on, you can't connect to facebook chat or other...
[Nokia Lumia 920] sicmadek:
I keep my status as offline for Facebook chat
[Nokia Lumia 920] Alpha0ero:
True but

I can still access the Facebook app and check status etc. It just won't update automatically if I move to another app. At about 50% battery usage, I place the phone in battery save mode to make sure I have battery power well into the evening. I can still browse in IE, send texts, check Facebook. etc. and get my latest email in Outlook as long as I initiate it. For others that need background task updates, usage, etc., this might not be ideal.
[Nokia Lumia 920] emckai:
Battery saver doesn't activate until around 20% if you set it in the 'Advance' options. You have to select 'When battery is low'

Even if you have battery saver on, it won't be in use until it hits around 20%

When I put my tablet in the charger i saw it freezing at the charging logo. After that I turned it off

When I tried that, I got a black screen. I tried to flash several stock firmwares and even tried the

Hi all,

Not exactly a thread that should come into this forum, but the only Nemus topic I found was dead.

I installed the Nemus launcher, which comes with a handy option to user-sort apps (a feature Zeam launcher does not have and I did not find any other lightweight launcher with this feature).

But the app names do not show complete, they show up only partly - first line shows up, the second line does not. Any idea what may I be doing wrong?

Thanks

Hello xda,

I am using CyanogenMod on my HTC One X and wondered, if it is possible to show a custom carrier label on my home screen and in the status bar (when opened). I am using the (outdated) 022 version from this thread at the moment. I tried to modify my /system/etc/spn-conf.xml, but I don't know if that would be the right way and I was not able to delete/replace/modify the file.

If anyone has some nice hints for me, I would be very glad. :)

It is possible on AOKP ROMs. I recommend the IceColdJelly 4.2.1 ROM. It's my personal favourite 4.2 ROM and it's getting more and more features like that as the AOKP team adds them. You can give it a try if you are already rooted and all that :D

In my warranty card says that the warranty covers exclusively hardware. So if i root my HOX, will my warranty be void?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] matt95:
Yes, to be rooted you need to unlock the bootloader which will void your warranty

Wrong section
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] DvineLord:
if you end up having a hardware issue then they shouldn't care that it was unlocked, but its always best to relock the bootloader and run ruu before returning for warranty so they cant claim that its software.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] c5satellite2:
No it does not. Even unlocking does not void your warranty. It "may" void your warranty. I can't remember hearing anyone being denied a warranty repair/replacement for rooting or unlocking in many years now.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] superchilpil:
Wrong answer

You are correct sir, rooting your device is legal and does not void your warranty. As long as you can put the device in a stock condition there should be no issues.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
Just because you haven't heard of it, doesn't mean it didn't happen. ;)

Some folks over on the international One X forum have had their warranty claims denied if they were BL unlocked, and ever installed a custom ROM (even if they returned to stock before sending the phone for warranty service). While those that only BL unlocked, but never flashed a custom ROM seem ok.

Also, if you go through your carrier for the warranty service, your results may also vary. For instance, testimonies on here seem to point to AT&T in the US doesn't check much of anything (at least BL unlock) when doing a warranty replacement.

HTC reserves the right to void your warranty, and deny warranty service. Whether they actually will or not, is less clear.

Agree for the most part, that if you return to as close to stock as possible before sending the phone in, you are probably ok. More importantly, IMO if you want the freedom to root, unlock, etc. and use the phone how you want to, just do it. Sure there is some small risk that you will later need warranty service, and have it denied. But everything has its risk. Carpe diem!

:crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying:
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
No, you cannot claim warranty because the device is in this state as a result of you modifying it. HTC is not responsible for the damage that you have done to the device, they're only responsible for hardware defects from the factory.

I don't know what you've done to the device, but if you can't recover from what is probably a simple mistake on your part then you really don't have any business modifying the device in the first place. You might be able to recover from this situation but you'll need to find your device forum and ask there.

A piece of advice: do your research before messing around with your next phone. There is a certain level of knowledge required when modifying your device, and as you're finding out now, if you don't really know what you're doing things can go south pretty quickly. Take the time to educate yourself a bit better, with the proper knowledge modifying your phone is a piece of cake.

timmaaa answered it quite well. Also, you are off topic and bumped a thread from over 7 months ago. This thread is about whether warranty will still cover

manufacturer defects

if you are bootloader unlocked.

No warranty will cover you for damage that you did by your own negligence. Screwing up the phone and trying to claim warranty repair is fraud and the

exact

reason why HTC locks bootloaders in the first place. Also bear in mind that HTC recorded the IMEI number of your device when you unlocked the bootloader.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] revanth kr:
i did nothing than unlocking just bootloader .. when i rebooted it failed tis is wat happened..
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
That still doesn't amount to a physical defect. You accepted a risk when you unlocked the bootloader on your device, a risk that something might go wrong. If you can get it to the bootloader you can relock the bootloader and run an RUU for your device. Like I said earlier though you need to find your own device forum, this is the HTC One XL forum and we don't know enough about your device to offer any real help. Basically, you're in the wrong place, find your own device forum and ask for help there.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
From the following post, you also installed custom recovery and installed a custom ROM. Which is a heck of a lot more than just unlocking the bootloader.

It seems you are already lying to us (or withholding the truth) so it seems honesty is not your highest priority.

In any case, its pretty clear that your current condition is a direct result of your actions, and not any type of manufacturer defect.

[General Questions and Answers] MattBooth:
I need help figuring out why one script runs and another does and it doesn't help with the fact that I'm still quite new to Shell Scripting, let alone running them in CWM on Android devices.

Here's my problem:

This works:

#!/sbin/sh
busybox echo "#BlahBlahBlah" >> /system/build.prop

This will not:

#!/sbin/sh
busybox sed -e '/#BlahBlahBlah/d' /system/build.prop > /system/build.prop.bak

Yet, the above WILL run inside the OS. If I boot up fully and use something like Script Manager or Busybox Installer (the script running function) and run the above... it works.

But, in CWM, it doesn't.

I'm trying to use this to make an uninstaller for certain mods that write to the build.prop. So far, my only method for doing this is to copy over a new, unmodded build.prop, which is not very elegant and only works for one type of phone.

Any help would be greatly appreciated :)

[Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cornelha:
ICS is not more battery hungry. I get the same performance as I do on GB. The problem here is the way your device is set up and the software you use on it.

I use wifi, whatsapp and still get a full day service out of my little P500 on ICS.
