[HTC One X+] fazz:
Two weeks worth of feedback on 'ROM 7/6/13'

Thought I'd give some feedback on my usage of '[ROM] 7/6/13' over the past couple of weeks on our two HOX+'s. It's outstanding stuff and it's certainly near perfection. Most previous moans I was having before have gone, but sadly new moans have been added to my personal/manual log :cyclops:

:mad: Dock audio problems

We didn't get the original and official mains charges with our two HOX+'s (which is why I was charging and having USB charging offers previously). So rather than continuing to moan about various charging issues, I grabbed two new and official HTC CR S650 docks for our HOX+'s to hopefully end our charging offers and have sexy docks for out HOX's too. The cost wasn't much more than quality third party or official HTC chargers, so made HTC sense to us. So this fixed our charging problems at home and usually charges up fully in about 4 hours (though I haven't monitored this closely yet), but now we have some horrid audio issues.

On sitting the HOX+'s into the dock, which isn't exactly great or easily accurate (takes some getting used to) the dock audio (dock.ogg) plays through the CR S650 dock. That part is fine, but I hear lots of strange interference, scratching and mild hissing. A bit like a loose analogue audio connection, but only happens when it plays audio and stops a few seconds after any audio plays. This happens with anything that involves audio (notification, alarms, music playback, radio playback and video playback). Sure, it's easy to say it's the dock, but I've tested them with prongs using a difference source and no fault, even when moving the cables trying to break the signal.

We have two HOX+s and two docks and switching them round doesn't make any difference, the above problem persists. Of course what is the same is they both use the same ROM... and NO... I'm not pointing fingers, but I would like to know if anyone else has experienced this problem and if it could be ROM related? As in... official CR S650 dock compatible? It might all 'sound' (pun intended) a pointless problem, but annoys the hell out of us and alarm clock sounds in the morning sound just irritable :mad:

:( Other issues:

The built-in Jelly Bean Alarm Clock doesn't show the icon in notifications always when set. The icon shows when it's currently set, but if the same alarm is for the next day (like working week alarm clock) it doesn't show until you go back into the alarm clock setting and come back out.

I still find my battery drains extremely fast, once it hits 15% (on both our phones)... anyone else have this or know why? Is there a way to clear Battery Stats any more or is this done automatically now days?

So... does a fast charge exist on these HOX+'s and possibly through the CR S650 docks? How long does a fast charge take? Is it actually supported on this ROM?

Is there such a thing as Dock Profiles, so I can set the brightness to 100% (auto off) when sitting in the dock during then back to auto when removed from the dock. Possibly time defined, so 100% in the dock during the day and auto or dimmed during 23:00 and 07:00. I've just got a stack of NFC's which we're having fun with and trying out random apps. Haven't worked out how to make an NFC tag do the reverse when swiped again.

I know no one seemed that bothered when about my issue with the lock screens having more than once screen and one being the fixed camera by default and others changeable. The issues was, the power button probably got pressed in my pocket whilst cycling, it then took over a fifty blank pictures inside my pocket and I couldn't work out why the battery was pretty much drained in the space of an hour and was burning hot. Then I got a notification on Google+ later (when I started to charge my phone up again) saying I had new photos to share... which were all blank. I really wish I could disable this or at least have a secondary guard of some kind.

Lastly, I'm still having the same issue of notifications being played out aloud through the phones speaker, whilst ear/headphones/speakers are plugged in. My notifications are rather... rude... so it's not great... but funny when random humans travelling on various TfL thingys try to work our where it came from and even look at other commuters... but still... it's gonna get me in trouble one day :o

:) Great upsides:

The inbuilt Jelly Bean camera is fast now and takes a second to start. CameraZOOM FX is rubbish still and can take 5-10 seconds to start. Awful and no response from support in months.

Flashlight/Torch works brilliantly, though any alarm clock app I've tried that tries to make it work, just makes the screen turn white, but doubt this has anything to do with the ROM and it's the random alarm apps.

BlueTooth works amazingly well, better than any device I've used, as well as WiFi which seems spot on and speedy enough.

Amazing stuff... that I must add here which I briefly mentioned on Google+ last week... I bought two pints of Guinness for the Mrs and me, using the NFC chip and paid for it fully with my BitCoins wallet. An experience I will never forget and hope it's something that will happen a lot more often, everywhere. Ooo... the crowds of sheep Cr'Apple users at the bar that were ALL left speechless, that eventually grew into endless questions and possibly ex-Cr'Apple users turned HTC/Android lovers :highfive:

A side from my endless moans Lloir and Maxwen, this soon to be official CM ROM for our HOX+'s is brilliant and you both should be proud. I bought two HOX+'s mainly because we can't afford the HOne's but also because the HOX+'s have 64Gb's inbuilt, as I feel SDcards are not battery friendly... previous devices that I shoved 32Gb Class 10's in always got so hot and felt short lived in battery life. Anywho, you've both made this device the best mobile I've owned since the HTC HD2 and would easily call this the HTC HD3+ personally :D
