I think it's impossible.. even if he uses iPhone on Airplane, and he just read ebook at the lowest screen brightness :p

Also, as you are on ViperS the battery will never be as good as the stock (or better the ARHD) one..

Also if you buy an anker the consumption mA/h is the same..
[HTC Sensation] jasminthoria:
Mate both phone got different OS you can't compare battery life on the factor of screen on time. While you have screen on android will keep running background applications while i-os is not multitasking operating system it won't run any background applications. Even on screen off android runs background applications. Other thing is numbers of panels of home screen with how many widgets you have on android, while on Apple you don't have widgets which drain more battery life.

Hopefully we will be rocking Ubuntu soon!

What's everyone think about this?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] garwynn:
I have a sneaky suspicion this is one of the main reasons Samsung went with a Smart Dock for the GN2.

Add it up - quad core system with resources, ubuntu, way to hook up peripherals....

That really makes a portable desktop short of virtualization.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] lovekeiiy:
Agreed. Thus is why I said may be of interests.

As for the mobile ubuntu OS, I think you're going to have to wait a bit. It wasn't announced that long ago. It's only recently been shown in any kind of working format, which was on a Nexus phone. Once the code is released, then will be challenges or getting everything to work such as LTE and S pen.

Happy new year everyone! I'm a GSM newb so please dont flame me on what it might seem obvious to most people in this forum. Having said that, can anyone comment on their AT&T HOX data speeds on T-mobile? I'm planning to (leave Sprint and) buy a used AT&T One X and use it on Tmobile $30 data plan. Lucky for me I live in NY Tmobile 1900 area.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] 954wrecker:
Same plan but in San Diego. Speeds can be just as fast as a T-Mobile branded phone but in my area It's much more inconsistent than a T-Mobile phones data connection. As long as you are ok with 2g and maybe some faster speeds it will be fine. I went from maxing out my 5 gigs of 4g to using about 1 gig a month now. Maybe NYC is better, maybe airportal.de gives you a better idea.

Enabling AWS on ATT One X using NV backup from Tmobile ( one S)

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2068041&page=12

I came across the thread above and it is interesting to see if we can use NV backup from T-Mobile One S to enable AWS bands on our phone.

If any of you guys here can obtain a NV backup from Tmobile One S by following the guide in the thread posted above, I will Volunteer to give it a try.

Thank you

Do we really need an HTC One S NV backup? I mean, we can use QXDM and go into the NV Browser and change the correct setting. Easier said than done, but I read about someone using QXDM to enable their AWS band on his Galaxy S3.

I went home put the SIM card in and entered my network unlock code and it worked on the first try. All though at first I my signal would go back and fourth from E, 4G, 4G+. After looking on forums for a couple hours I read that the HTC one x doesn't support tmobile aws bands. Anyway now to point I am now using my HTC one xl on tmobile with no less than 4g and 4g+ speeds. All it took was a tweak to my apn and bam 4g all day. If anyone needs help just reply to this thread.

I have a T-Mobile One S on AT&T with a HOXL modem for almost a month now with no issues. Could there be a possibility that with a baseband flash and a build.prop change, that you could possibly get HSPA+ 42 speeds on a HOXL? If someone is willing to upload their build.prop, I'll make a zip to flash with a T-Mobile One S modem. Just have a HOXL modem as backup.

I'd be interested in trying this. If the One S radio is flashed to the HOXL then the HOXL would behave like any other T-Mobile branded phone? I just got the HOXL and I'm in a refarmed area so I'm very happy with data speeds outdoors but when I'm indoors I'm usually stuck on edge. My T-Mobile branded SGS2 gets consistent 3g and 4g EVERYWHERE I go. If I can't get the same service on the HOXL then I'll probably have to part with it.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] leo_the_noob:
I've been playing with my build.prop a little more and aside from the obvious apn settings I've made the following build.prop edits

ro.ril.gprsclass = 12

ro.ril.hsdpa.category=24

ro.ril.hsupa.category=6

ro.ril.hsxpa=5

That's getting me a 4g or HSPA connection pretty consistently indoors now on T-Mobile with AT&T branded HOXL. Before the edits I was only getting high speed connections outdoors but would be stuck on Edge indoors. Please give those edits a try and see if they help.I've been testing for a few hours now and all is well.

I found the 1.08ts.50.02.16 version of the T-Mobile US HTC One S Radio on another thread already packaged as a flashable zip file, I was able to flash the radio from TWRP but I didn't really notice any change in performance.I'm going to leave it for a day to see if there's any improvement but I'll probably go back to ATT 3.18 radio. The build.prop edits have definitely helped but I was hoping our S4 chips were capable of working with all T-MO bands if we could just flash the right radio. I thought the One S had the same Qualcomm SOC as the HOXL? I've read quite a few threads that debate this subject but nothing definitive one way or the other.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] scotty1223:
Unfortunately no. Att does not use the 1700 band for hspa+,and no firmware are going to change incorrect physical hardware. Att chipset cannot pick up 1700 band,period.

The reason you're getting hspa+ now,is due to t mobile refarming that data to the 1900 band that the hoxl can pick up.

In otherwords,an att or international device is never going to do as well or be as stable as an actual t mobile device :(

Thanks for the reply, it's good to know that T-mo is working on the LTE markets.

For me, LTE is good but not a must, the reason I want to switch from Straight Talk (AT&T) is because I only got around 2-5Mbps DL :(

By the way, Go Smart is part of T-mo, not just another MVNO provider like Straight Talk or Net 10 so I might have a chance to get LTE speed
