If you're S-OFF no need to relock or worry about your CID or stock recovery, the RUU will flash just fine. :good:
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] RollTribe:
Good news! The RUU was successful and I booted up into BB9. I coumld've sworn that RUU's wipe /sdcard but apparently not. So I obviously don't have enough hours left in the day to test the battery, but I'll let it drain to almost dead tomorrow. Kinda off topic but if anyone was hesitant to RUU on Windows 8, don't worry, because I just did.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] 31ken31:
Oops
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] RollTribe:
Alright well today was an abnormal day of use, but the RUU did appear to fix it. I used my phone a lot in HSPA so it APPEARS that it has the massive drains, but it all seems to be a 1% drain when I'm actually using. Here's a screenshot.

Everything is good day 2.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] RollTribe:
Uh oh... Looks like RUU didn't fix it. My phone went from 14% straight to 8% and then directly from 8% to dead. I'm stating to think that this is a hardware problem.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] exad:
I agree, sounds hardware related at this point.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Thug_4_Life:
I had the same issue with HTC Desire too, yet even worse. It would normally die at 30% Maybe this is a known hardware problem?

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] RollTribe:
I wonder if replacing the battery would help?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] exad:
If its under warranty, I'd just send it in. The battery connects to the underside of the main board.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] RollTribe:
I have insurance but I don't want to risk getting the new version of the AT&T software which can't be rooted.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] exad:
I can't speak for your level of experience regarding phone hardware replacements but it seems even the most experienced seem to have issues here and there getting everything working properly after taking it apart. I would risk it by sending for insurance as they will more likely just replace the battery than replace your entire phone.. Leave it S-OFF Bootloader unlocked in case they RUU your phone up. A working unrootable phone is better than a phone that doesn't work at all.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] RollTribe:
Or I could just keep this one :p
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] 31ken31:
Your insurance cover loss or theft? Can always say it was ripped off or lost and get a replacement and do a battery swap or buy a replacement and put it in yourself
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] RollTribe:
Nah it's the RadioShack one so I believed it only covers damage.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] 31ken31:
Get a new battery if u don't wanna risk an updated firmware

[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] air2k57:
I'm really curious as to the difference you guys have noticed in terms of overall signal, data reliability and data speeds. I am really close to buying HTC one, just am not sure if issues I am having are nexus related or T-Mobile.

Like I'd get no service all of the sudden when in the same spot I'd get 3 bars just a minute earlier. Or data dropping out with 4 bars of service at times, even though it'd be averaging 8mbps a second before. Just really odd issues and my buddy who has tmo didn't seem to have same problems.

Also, when doing speeds test on hspa+, device usually tests with a really high ping, same was the issue with galaxy nexus as well, gs2 was not like that.

I ended up getting HTC one on sprint but they royally screwed up and I am returning it Monday, besides, service was plain terrible.

I'm in DC area right now, will be moving to Atlanta next month though.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] Monk4Life:
I just moved from the N4. Boy am I glad. I never thought I would buy a HTC phone yet alone one with sense. This phone is just pure awesome.

I too had those signal issues with my N4 but I do not notice them with the one. Speed wise the One is getting much better of a data signal and I am able load up things that require data much faster. Ping times with the speedtest.net app are much much lower too in the same areas I tested with my N4. On a side note in my media room my N4 would always loose signal but I have 2 bars and get a little over 2mbps down with my One.

Hope this helps.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] air2k57:
Thank you, it does. I figured that it was the nexus as I've heard of it dropping a signal from others too. And it wouldn't make sense for it to be a service issue when there is pretty good coverage.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] deviusdragger:
I just sold my nexus 4 to my buddy, I had no complaints about that phone, I loved the size of it.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] monte666:
I get 4g where I used to get edge net even with the .27 radio runs video a little smoother camera kills except I miss photo sphere.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] ruvy01:
weird..i always get better speedtest results with the n4 than the htc one.. also checked the htc one and the galaxy s4 in the tmobile store... htc one also got lower speed results. i think the metal might be messing with the speeds...
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] teiglin:
I tend to get slightly lower speed tests on average with the One than the N4 but not dramatically so (and speedtests vary so much anyway that they're not that meaningful); empirically, the connection is no worse. Signal strength is very comparable, usually within -90(+/-5)dBm. Bars don't mean anything; different firmware converts actual signal power to bars however they feel like.

It is nice to be free of the N4's periodic data drops, though.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] air2k57:
See, I don't really care if I get 1-2mbps less than on my nexus. What bothers me is signal drops, not even just the data, it happens very randomly it seems like. I just don't want to spend all that money on the One to still have those.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] kgor93:
Can you notice the difference in screen resolution between the two? I would think the difference would be marginal at best.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] air2k57:
Yes. I have HTC one for Sprint, I have yet to return it lol. Everything looks a little sharper. So the claim that human eye can't see the difference, to me, is false. It isn't a huge difference, but I can see it. More so, the difference is in colors, they look way morenatural. If you tweak settings on the nexus with saturation and brightness, it gets much better, but not like the One. It is much better in direct sunlight as well.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] kgor93:
Makes sense. The Nexus 4 seemed washed out as well. It's not as big of a jump from going from a non-HD display to an HD display, but it enhances the experience.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] air2k57:
Yea, nexus 4 looks good until you play with any other high end phone side by side, even gs3 or even optimus g that uses same display as nexus lol...
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] kgor93:
Plus the battery is much better on the One. My only concern is replacing the battery down the line. I'm planning on keeping this phone for a while and don't want to be forced into a new purchase because of a battery that needs replacement.

But the Nexus 4 is still a bargain. For $300-$350, you can't beat it. The fact it's even being compared to $600 smartphones that are half a generation newer is a feat in and of itself.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] air2k57:
It always was though, when gs3 was still pretty much new and was like $650 for a dual core CPU and nexus 4 was half that for quad...

These days things are different, hardware is usually sufficient enough to run any android skin pretty well. Sure gs4 and HTC One has much better processors, but day to day you barely see the difference. Nexus 4 is very fast partially due to stock android, and partially because real world, there isn't too much difference between it and say HTC One.

Now, I love stock, but I'm still upgrading to one. I simply am growing tired of nexus devices running crappy on T-Mobile network. From high pings during speed tests that translate to delay in initial data refresh in real world, to signal and data drops. And now, LTE. Sure, I'm running LTE on my nexus now, but it is not as stable as I want it to be, and battery does take a pretty substantial hit.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] I Am Marino:
Is battery a huge difference from N4 to One?
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] air2k57:
Ordered mine this afternoon, expected it to be backordered. Yet, it shipped and should be here tomorrow... Stock Nexus 4 had subpar battery for me, with different kernels it isn't bad. The Sprint HTC One that I've had for few days gave me much better battery life than Nexus 4, and that was with Sprint LTE constantly dropping and switching. If HTC One on T-Mobile is anything like Sprint version, then should be, yes.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] maigre:
I'm looking at them side by side right now with the same content open. The aspect ratio is a bit different in that the N4's screen is slightly wider and the One slightly longer. Text is a sharper on the One and it jumps off the screen more because there's more contrast between lights and darks. White is different, too, more bluish on the N4. I use an app that can alter RGB values on the N4, but no setting changes the nature of the whites relative to those of the stock One.

Overall, the One's visuals are more appealing to me and I write that as a satisfied user of the N4, largely because of its low price and easily customized Android experience.

Looking at a hd cityscape image, the detail and brightness of the One is plainly superior. It’s not close. The detail jumps out of the One. Tiny highrise windows are more distinguishable as one of the many obvious examples. I know that we're not supposed to be able to detect resolution differences at these pixel densities, but the One's images are instantly more defined. Some of this is probably pure resolution and some is the black/white contrast differences between the two devices.

This is the first time I've done this side by side thing with the N4 and it's striking. I'd compared the One and the Galaxy S4 in a store. My wife will be the regular user of the One. I hadn't cared that much before that it wouldn't be my daily driver. But now I feel like I'm missing out on something.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] regP:
Switching back to t-mobile tonight and taking the opportunity to get the One. How would you guys say your transition from on onscreen buttons back to physical went? I love my n4 but am solid on the Ones hardware except the hardware buttons.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] ingenious247:
I too experienced the signal loss on the N4 until I hacked it to enable LTE, it was much better after that (there was decent LTE coverage where I was having signal issues but almost NO HSPA). I was also a fan of the software buttons, however.. after using the HTC One now for almost 2 weeks I am completely glad to have ditched the N4 for this phone.. everything is better, the cell reception, the screen, the sound (oh the sound!), the camera.. I even like Sense 5 MORE than Vanilla Android! (I know, crazy right?). I have always been an Android purist, I would constantly flash ROMs to get away from TouchWiz, etc. and I loved stock 4.2.2 on the Nexus 4.. but I cannot say a single bad thing about Sense 5, and Blinkfeed is awesome, as is the camera and it's features. HTC nailed it with this phone. Best phone I have ever owned, and I buy phones a LOT
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] hiepxhop:
What physical buttons are you talking about? Both phones have a physical power button and volume button. But nothing on the glass.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] ingenious247:
He means the capacitive buttons. They're under the glass but they are still considered "physical" buttons i.e., they can break. Software buttons cannot
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] two-rocks:
we left sprint for t-mobile and the Nexus 4... all Nexus' had the signal problems. We now have 2 HTC one's and a 'signal fluctuating N4'...the HTC has a more reliable radio that makes calls/has data where the N4 had zip (t-mobile). Tried flashing several radios on the N4 - nothing helped.

No idea on speed differences between the two phones (throttled until next bill cycle) , but so far it's all better than sprint :good:
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] nexicon:
I'm also here from the beloved Nexus 4. I loved the phone but the speakers and camera really took me. I seriously feel the Google Edition roms are smoother than any nexus 4 rom. That's crazy to think, huh?
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] mmduluth:
I'm here from the Nexus 4 as well. I wanted a phone that I could actually hear and I got one! The camera on the One also kills the N4 which is always a good thing.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] erikiksaz:
HTC One Pros:

-Color calibrated screen

-Speaker quality

-AUX input sounds WAYYYYYYY better

-cell phone reception is much better. I used to have 0-1 bars with my N4 (calls would drop), whereas I have a solid 2 with my HTC One (can hold calls).

-Slightly higher PPI (only noticeable to me when reading web pages at full unzoom.

HTC One Pros:

-720p makes for a wider aspect ratio, the screen was a lot wider. I like that much more over a narrower 1080p.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] ingenious247:
I think you meant "cons" for the 720p statement lol
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] ghost_231:
i came here from N4 as well, i always liked having an HTC phones, i really didnt have that many problems before. tried the nexus 4 and it was good till i found out the hard way about the signal problems. had strong reception all the time but when i went in and out of areas that was refarmed, my data would just DROP.:(:( not to mention the wifi problems too.....

glad to see that HTC made a solid phone:good::good:
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] andybfmv96:
Yeah I'm coming from the n4. I love this phone co.pared to it.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] Monk4Life:
Its not 720p, its 768 and yes the width of the nexus 4 screen is awesome and one of the only things I really miss about it.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] rasstar:
I have the Nexus 4 and it generally gets a higher data speed that the HTC One but I have seen the One go as high as over 20mbps. I can get data in places that I could not with the HTC One. I really like the Nexus but I think that the audio volume and speaker phone was a bit low and it should have had LTE. I am not sure if I should sell it or not.

What APN is everyone using? I heard reports that the EPC is faster.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] TJBunch1228:
I have had my eye on either the One or the S4 for quite a while now. I love my N4 but I have phone ADD hardcore. Crappy thing about the N4s ridiculously low price point is the resale value is also super low. I can't find any Ones or S4s on craigslist for under $500. I posted an ad for a trade of my ps3 and my N4 together and a One owner is interested and wants to meet up tomorrow. I'll miss my N4 AND my ps3 but I really like the One. I know it's gimmicky, but I'm super excited about the IR blaster and TV app. Anyone here use it much?

Hopefully the deal goes well and I'll be a regular poster in this section of XDA for a while starting tomorrow.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] ingenious247:
Don't trade your PS3 for a phone
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] TJBunch1228:
I'm not much of a gamer and I find myself really only using it for BluRays anyway. As far as the value goes, I couldn't get more than $300 for my N4 and ps3s go for between $150 and $250 on CL so it's about an even trade.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] air2k57:
Check swappa, they have good deals on htc one and s4, and is official xda marketplace and imei is always clean, bought mine there.

HTC one is miles better than nexus and s4, s4 is laggy and ugly software imo. But, LTE drops a lot more on it, while it is rock solid on nexus and s4. I'm pretty sure it is a driver issue though. Even with one bar of LTE it is faster by a bit then nexus on LTE. But, you do get 2-3 less bars on it and unless you're in perfect coverage zone, it will drop while nexus won't.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] rasstar:
How is the nexus on LTE?
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] air2k57:
Great, I've used it in Atlanta and dc. The only time it dropped to hspa is during a call. Now, with LTE on the nexus, many places the network location doesn't resolve, that was my issue with it. Made it difficult to use some apps that neede it and GPS took ages to lock because of it.

hi.

any one who know about my problems pls help...

ive bought a xda 2 from the net and it seems like i cant make any fonecall nor recives any fone calls via my fone. its seems like its been block but i only can recieves and send sms with it, the fone have been unlock. any one who know about this probles or how to resolved it pls help and would this fone works outside the uk (Brunei) help needed pls.....
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] cruisin-thru:
If it is blocked in UK it will word in rest of the world, you need to unlock the phone or try an O2 sim card before you give up though.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] suhardee:
have been unlock but cant make fone call

the fone have been unlock. which i can use the vodafone sim and o2 for sms.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Rudegar:
a gsm triband phone will work on all gsm networks which use 900/1800/1900

if it's blocked even if the network support those frequency then maybe it's a imei nr block but then i suppose it would not be able to send sms
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] suhardee:
what makes it blocked

what makes it blocked in the first place. hope it will work back home in brunei.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] cruisin-thru:
suhardee, a phone is blocked if reported stolen or if a claim for insurance is paid out, once the insurers pay out they want to make sure that it cant be used again on the networks, would make more sense to reclaim the broken phones and get some of their money back by selling them.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] suhardee:
hemmm

so basically ive bought a stolen phone or a fone which have been claim for its insurance. but just hope it works back home in brunei coz ive unlocked it already. thanks for clearing this up for me. but how would the fone compeny blockd it coz i didnt bought the fone with any sim card is it via the imei number? coz that is the logical explainations. i think it might work in brunei coz at home eventhow mobile is the same advance as in the UK but i dont think the mobile compeny in brunei is that advance.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Rudegar:
this forum have a automatic dictionary which mean that if you hold your pointer on top of the place where you wrote imei then you'll get a popup explaining 100% what it is and where it's located
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] suhardee:
thanks

thanks every one who makes things clear for me... by this weekend i will know if he fone works at home or not.....
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Androideka5:
I recently convinced my girlfriend to switch to android from iOS, but I'm sorta torn; I want her to have the best experience (which I strongly believe is not stock software) but there's the question of stability, which could be problematic since I won't always be able to fix it, what do you guys think? Feedback would be super great:)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] joshua5683:
The best performance with roms I've had: Luna - I've had the best performance with this rom, Jelly 'Beans' - AOSP themed but 100% touchwiz, performance is perfect as well besides launcher redraw lag (fix by taking the services.jar in system/framework from Luna and replace it in system/framework on Jelly 'Beans'), Super Stock+ - exactly like stock except with basic changes that everyone loves such as no ongoing wifi notification, 4 in 1 reboot menu, and lidroid toggles, and CleanROM - similar to Super Stock+, with probably just a few more features. Also with CleanROM you can flash cool Wasabi themes. You can flash Wasabi themes on other roms too but it doesn't work with all. So always make a backup in recovery before flashing the theme in case it doesn't work or in case you don't like how the theme looks and want to try a different one. Also the stability on all these roms are perfect except I think Jelly Beans has a couple minor bugs. You can check by opening the thread and find the "Not Working" section. Jelly Beans also has a link to a google doc in its thread with a list of bugs and feature requests, and you can add to it. Luna I'm pretty sure is bug free at the moment but I'm not entirely sure, the rom is pretty new. and CleanROM and SuperStock I know for sure are bug free.

And for the kernel, I recommend Zeus Kernel on any rom. I have used every kernel I could find and Zeus definitely has the best performance. I like to overclock to 1.6 GHz with it. It's very safe as that is barely higher than stock.

My preference is Jelly 'Beans' and Luna. If I feel like having an AOSP theme I use Jelly Beans and if I want to use a stock look I use Luna. Like I said before if I use Jelly Beans I will use the services.jar from Luna in system/framework for no launcher lag. And I always use Zeus Kernel. Also you will get the best performance by not using widgets on the home screen. That's how it is for stock anyways, not sure if the same applies to custom roms. Good luck hopefully your girlfriend isn't disappointed :D let us know how she likes it. I like to hear feedback from people who switch from iOS to Android and vice versa
