I hope you guys enjoy the One X - HTC One X

I was gonna buy it today but decided on a nexus for now and will get the S3 when it comes out. Don't mean to troll or anything. I know this phone is gonna be great down the line with dev supporting it, unfortunately for me all the issues reported turned me off about the phone. BUT it will undoubtedly be a beast in the near future. Enjoy your phone guys!

You might be in for a long wait. S3 will have issues too, just like every other phone ever released

That's true that phone usually ship with some issues but they were so many bothering me with the one x. But that will all be fixed very soon hopefully HTC will take care of it, then the devs. As for the s3, it's not out or announced yet so let's see what happens.

Cheers. Good luck with the SIII. My first contract should be running out about the time thats released so I'm gonna grab one too!
How much cheaper did the Nexus work out at compared to getting a One X? I wouldnt have thought there was much difference in price? I know here in the UK the SII handset only, is only about £25 cheaper than the One X

Well I got the white version which was just a little more expensive than the black version ( I went for the white one because that's the color I would have chose for the one x). I got it for 500 USD even plus a TPU case that comes with a screen protector and an extra screen protector. All together plus one day shipping was 550 USD. I'm very happy.

personally my desire HD dint have any hardware issues, whatever isssues were there, were due to software bugs, However my SGSII had hardware issues and I went through two replacements before I got a somewhat acceptable phone.
The point is all the issues that you have been hearing about was also there for other flagship phones. 90% of users dont notice issues, only the fussy ones do.
For eg:
Display issues:
SGSII had yellow tinge, dark circle, screen burn and color banding.
IP4 had yellow spot
Network issues:
IP4 death grip
SGSII ****ty wifi, GPS
Heat issues:
SGSII had a lot of overheating issues due to the display as well as motherboard.
Personally all my S2s had reached 60C battery temps at some point or the other playing riptide
In a nutshell, although there may be some genuine initial teething issues with the ONE X, very few and hardly any are major. Its only that since its such an anticipated phone, things are being blown out of proportion. Personally I dont find the ONE X any hotter than the SGSII.

If you think the X issues have been bigged up, how about thes3? That phone has been given such big, unrealistic leaks or w/e it is bound to be a massive disappointment..

You're absolutely right. It's the fact that it was highly anticipated that make those bugs and issues really bad. Like I said they will be fixed very soon. But personally I'm not feeling the one x at the moment.

lol you are worried about buying a phone plagued with issues so you bought a Galaxy Nexus......
My phone is a galaxy nexus and plagued with issues sums it up!

I have the grey one x and I Dont have any problem with screen or sense or heat not at all it working smooth , the only problem that the opera app sometime FC that all .
HTC one x , the one I've been waiting for

Same boat as you man. I'm not getting a nexus or one x, but holding off for the S3. Samsung has beautiful hardware, and the development of the S2 was amazing. I've ALWAYS bought HTC, but its time for a change, HTC has gone downhill. Your OP was in no way offensive though. There's just some people pissy that you're bad talking their little baby, and can't handle the truth of many of the issues regarding this phone.

This made me lol. Please keep your opinions to yourself when you haven't even owned any of the devices your talking about. I however in the last year have had an iPhone 4, sgs2, iPhone 4s, HTC sensation, HTC sensation xe, galaxy note and now HTC one x and I can assure you this one x is NOT hardware gone downhill! Is is easily the most elegant, well built device with the best screen by far out of all of the above. (yes, I am an addict and proud of it) which reminds me anyone wanna buy a sensation or a note? Lol

Is it a good plan to get the X now? It seems many people are having problems with the X atm. Was the tegra failure? I really want to use Android revolution HD so One S is out of the question.

And don't forget that a couple of samsung spies are among us, let you think they changed 6 or 8 times their One X because always faulty.
My poll showed 1/3 of One X have flickering bug, and many people with non-flickering screens are not voting, so let say you have 20% chance of having a flickering on grey screen and 10% of having flex (the other poll)
Just try the phone before buying
100% of people with a faulty phone will join a forum to research and complain about it.
1% of people without faults will join a forum to tell everyone how good their phone is.

lol i find this samsung spy thing really funny.
I'm on the 4th device now, still got that damn flickering, wouldn't mind being a 'spy' as i'd probably make a lot better wage than i'm on now.
however I'm just a perfectionist, and i'm not going to accept a device that isn't 100% (hardware-wise) working perfectly.
Yes of course, people who have no problems won't post on every topic but those with problems will Thanks for replies, I will get the One X

the samsung spies theory is ridiculous. I'm awaiting my second device and if it has screen backlight flickering I WILL write that it has backlight flickering and I WILL change it again. Most people don't even look for flaws as they love to spend money for the sake of spending money just to show off that they have a new expensive gadget or like apple fans or religious people they wouldn't dare to criticize their deity. I don't care about status at all, I'm only interested in having a 100% flawless phone and I am fully allowed to expect that with a phone at this price.
My only problem with HOX is the darn battery witch drops by several % every minutes when in use.
(Got it on monday)
Don't worry dude!
It's same with all the HTC I had (Nexus1,DHD and Sensation)
Playing games or watching videos will deplete battery in no time, the screen is a power monster

They may not work for Samsung but people will come on other brand forums to give the other product a bad name. I used to use a PC forum and any thread about AMD always got derailed by people going on about how you should use Intel instead or Apple if you used Windows.

Go to Samsung service center ad you will come to know how many hardware issues, screen issues and heating issues Samsung customers are facing. People are spending their hard earned money on their favorite gadgets.. don't missguide them just to prove your brand loyalty..
Human himself is not 100% perfect, how can you expect the things made by him to be 100% perfect.. WAKE UP..

What brand will you switch to after HTC goes bankrupt?

Hey guys, from what I have seen going around on this forum it's pretty obvious that HTC has shot themselves death w the One X fiasco. The way they response to the issues so far will definitely transfer to brand damage and permanent loss of customers. Combined w their abysmal performance lately, the future is not so bright for them. Such a shame since I really like their phones. Using an HTC sensation XL now w only one core and I'm proud to show to next to any SII.
Anyway, there's a big fat chance that HTC wont be around long. Just wondering what brand you guyz will switch to once they're done. For me it'll be either Sony if I really really want to stay w Android (I love Google). If not I'll jump to Nokia and WP even though I really hate M$, or even worse, I'll go w Apple and iOS (hopefully they'll have released something bigger than 4.5 inch screen wise by then). Wont ever go w Samsung phones since their fan boys are bloody annoying. They're the worst kind of fan boys ever, even worse than Apple's srsly.
Imagine someday we'll look back at our old HTC phones and realize there was a time when they existed lol.
Peace.

Just pretty stupid.
HTC is why we have XDA, even if one of their devices fail, they wont go away
all devices have a fiasco at launch, it was there when the xbox360 launched, ps2, ps3, sgs2, iphone4...i can keep going but can't be bothered
yes its worse than usual but nothing new
besides our polls, the faultless One X thread and 95% of the reviews making love to the One X proves it's still far away from a failure
the worst that will happen is a measure for early adopters, just like Sony did for the defected Xperia S screens
now this thread is flame war
moddddddddd
Can this nonsense thread be closed please?
Haven't you ever thought, people with flawless HOX are actually busy with their HOX and the rest few people are the only ones online at XDA OneX forum
From personal perspective, I'm quite happy with my HOX, coming from an HD2 .. it was a good buy for me. And yes after HTC goes bankrupt (I'm also sure it won't be for the OneX).. I am sure there will be some new player to jump onto.

I've been following this phone on the internet and there are just simply too many issues. All the polls so far as far as I understand don't count how many phones are affected in every way. Instes each poll addresses a particular issue. Hence if we combine all the affected phones the ratio is pretty large I think. I understand very well that all new products will have issues, particular the one x since its a complete new direction in manufacturing for HTC. However the way they rushes out the products and how they have been responding to the complaints so far just makes me rethink my allowance for them.
And as I have said I have been following this phone every single day since the launh and the issues dont just come up in this forum. Threads about issues come up in other android forums as well. Also a lot of average consumers probably haven't paid close attention to the defects particularly the screen flickering issue. Or perhaps they justwerent bothered by it enough to make a big deal ( I think they'll regret it though as it gets worse).
So yeah not trolling at all just wanna share my thoughts. No need to get so worked up

Every sony phone I've had in the past (admittedly older phones, not smartphones) has developed a fault within its warranty period, or just after.
They were still using crappy connections for charging, that after time dont fit properly and everything else.
So Sony nope...
Samsung, crap build quality, awfull touchwiz. No thanks.
WinPhone7, just removed it from my old HD2 so my Mrs can have Android on it. No thanks... Its very slick for a phone/functions perfectly but is too immature to be a real option as a smartphone. Crappy sat nav, and a million things on marketplace that you have to pay for thart are free for android market.

I've never said they'll go bankrupt because of the one x fiasco. I said that in combination w the abysmal financial performance in the last couple of months, the one x issues will probably put a lot of ppl off HTC forever. Remember LG?
The smartphone market is very different now. It's basically a 2 horse race between Samsung and Apple for the premium market and the Chinese manufacturers for the low level phones. Hell the latter is even moving up as well and w very competitive price. It's not easy for HTC to turn around now and apparently even harder once they lose customers because of the lack of response and future potential customers who are discouraged from buying it either by someone they know or by viewing forums like this.
I won't be switching back to Samsung if HTC goes belly up, that's certain.
I'll move away from smart phones and go back to retro 90's Nokia phones

Thinking of selling iPhone 4S for HTC One X

Hello Everyone,
I would like to say that I was 100% sure that I was going to sell my iPhone 4S for the HTC One X until I came to the forum and saw some of the negative posts about it. Now I have owned Android phones before (S2, other HTCs etc.) and the first thing I will be doing is unlocking the bootloader and flashing roms on it. From what I have read here is that there were some issues at first but updates have been released and most of those issues are gone? Would you guys recommend me getting it considering the S3 will be announced soon? Mind you I am a fan of HTC Sense and now that CM9 is being released I cannot see what the S3 can offer over the One X...
Back to the point have all the issues from launch been solved and you guys would recommend it?
Thanks for the help .
I've recently started properly using this forum mainly because I have just got a One X and have the flickering issues. There is absolutely no definite indication at all that flickering issues have been resolved for starters. Nothing yet to indicate that it can be fixed by firmware or not. I'm considering returning mine and waiting a few months and getting a One X again only after that period. It's a great phone, but you might want to let the teething issues get out of the way first, that's all.
Remember that not every phone has issues... Only those that have issues complain, rare for people to join a forum just to say they are happy.
Take a look at iPhone forums.... Read through posts there of issues.... Would that put you off getting an iPhone?
Just to say, my handset is fault free as was my first other than the low signal issue . I took the first one back purely cos it was branded and was too impatient to wait for three to release the latest update that addressed the signal issue.
Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk 2
I really do not know what to do because I will be buying it from a person in a local deal so I cannot return it or exchange it at a store... You guys are saying the screen flickering issues is actually hardware and not software?
i haven't experienced any issues with my one x. mine is unbranded sim free. picked it up off ebay brand new. screen never flickers, although i have seen some people talking about this.
Screen flickering issues aren't as widespread as the forum posts would indicate. People who have problems shout the loudest.
I'd go for it, worst case scenario and it flickers just get HTC to send you a replacement.
I've been an iPhone guy for a while and have tried multiple android devices. The One X is my favourite so far vs my 4S. Mind you mine is the LTE version. My biggest gripe is the WiFi issues but I think should be fixable via updates.

I'm still waiting to get my HTC one x. How is it? I'm chompping at the bits for it.
What wifi issues you experience?
I got a free one x and have my 4s on craigslist.
This phone has some nuances (quad core gets hot baby), but the screen still gets me every time even on dim. I'm in love with android as I had only owned iPhones till now.
Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk 2
Also no issues here, as they said above,it's the people with the faults that shout loudest, it's exactly the same when buying a new tv etc, people leave bad comments who have the worst trouble it's common sense as I'd never go on a site after buying something am happy with and splash my gratitude at the product, but on other hand if I was having trouble I'd love to get on the site and slate the product am having trouble with... Anyways back to reality, I'd recommend the one x over 4s any day but it's all down to you whether you want to chance getting a faulty one x !

I love iOS and still do. I miss my iPhone 4S and I loved my GSII. Anyways, the One X is a really good phone if you can see past the dismal battery life. That's the only thing bugging me but hopefully in time it should get better with updates. GSII is still the best android phone for me. Would I say buy this? Yeah I would its a lovely phone, and as much as I love the iPhone, the screen is too small. Wait and see what the GSIII offers first. If you can't wait then you won't go far wrong with the One X.

Yeah I would its a lovely phone, and as much as I love the iPhone, the screen is too small. Wait and see what the GSIII offers first. If you can't wait then you won't go far wrong with the One X.

Yeah I am meeting someone and selling my iPhone tonight... Unfortunately for Canada it seems that we will be getting a dual core version because LTE does not support quadcores... I might just wait another day and see what is revealed about the S3. Personally I hate the iPhone, screen is too small the software is outdated things take much longer to do than Android... The only good thing about the iPhone are the apps and thats it.
S3 won't be quad core either in the Canada.
I love my One X
I have decided to buy the One X but I am undecided if it should be white or the glamour tray hmm...

white, it looks stunning, you wont regret taking a white piece
Definitely white, it suits the silky smooth phone
The grey / black One X seems to show up scuff marks more than the White version from what I've seen posted on here. Personally, I'd go for the white version.

Grey! White is for iPhones! Although, I will admit.. if I were to ever get a white phone, this would be it.
I was a long time iphone owner, but when i saw htc one x white one i just sold iphone 4 and bought one x. Screen ,performance plus android 4.0.3, its extremly fast it blows my acer iconia a500 away. Only thing that needs to be improved is battery life, its good for talking but big screen eats battery very fast usually i get two days of usage with screen on 3hours

I think i'm done!

Posting in this section because posters on this form have experience with both the S4 and the Tegra 3.
Currently I own an HTC ONE S. I love the way it looks and feels in the hand, the screen and battery life is decent and when its working correctly its lovely and fast.
BUT
I hate the chipping issues and there is no official word on a solution for the black version. The Internet and signal is sporadic at best jumping from 3G to HSDP+ and often not working at all i'm also getting soft resets when browsing the internet. I also hate that it can't play 720p youtube smoothly.
I'm thinking of complaining to 3mobile and upping my tariff and swapping for a HTC One X (international with Tegra 3).
I'll get used to the size and the added bonus of extra storage will be nice. The battery concerns me a little. In work I always have access to a charger so thats ok. But at weekends when i'm out and about just using the phone for the occasional call and text and nothing else am I likely to notice a huge difference between the S and the X?
Would you make the change if you were having the same issues as me? I've had two ONE S's both with the same problems so its not just my phone.
There have been no updates for the S whereas there have been at least 2 for the X. Also the ROM scene on the S isn't great with not many releases and I was hoping to learn how to do that and have some fun tinkering.
What would you do?
Thanks for any help in advance.
If I were you I'd go ahead and get the One X because you seem to want more power to play 720p smoothly without LTE and after reading the Battery Stats thread (which includes the One X international version), I came to a conclusion that the One X has pretty decent battery life. Though I'm already biased because I literally can't sleep at night because I'm thinking about this phone, I would still recommend it over the One S also because of screen size and quality. But before you pull the trigger and get the One X, you should ask around the forums and see if anyone else is using the unlocked international version of the One X on T-Mobile and if they're experiencing similar issues.
they said they changed the process of the one s, so idk exchange it for the one s, if it doesnt work go to the one s!!!!
but i think your meant to post this in the international one x section??? yes no idk
Wrong forum, this is the S4 One X(L) section.
That being said, the S4 version is still a fantastic device.

you're right... I think it should be under the international One X forum.
Yeah you're probably right actually.
Apologize. Could an admin move it for me?
current One X owner, it eats h264 for breakfast and plays 1080p videos flawaless im surprised the One S can't play 720p, tegra games and the SLCD2 screen have to be seen to be believed
however we have serious list of random build quality defects right and there is a high chance you might get a defected unit, i made a poll and 28% out of 600 voters had a defected unit
im switched two phones so far each with their own set of build niggles, these devices are fresh out of the oven and HTC is yet to nail the production process

My advice: get rid of them and move on. Why stick w something that gives you so much distress and then feel unhappy?
That being said, if I were to get any of them, I'd stick around since they are such nice phones and I cant imagine me using Android on any other brand Sam*cough*sung*cough.
But again: it's just a phone. Dont like it dont use it.

Please don't be misleading when it comes to defective numbers, its natural that when people have defects they come search on a forum like this and when nothing is wrong they don't.
Also after years of reading these forums its clear that out of the thousands there is always a few ocd who nit pick at things that the general public would never even notice as build defects.
My One X is fine btw It's the longest I have ever gone without rooting and installing custom rom, I think because I really enjoy the stock speeds and sense UI re design ^.^

i opened more One X than you can ever dream of, i crossed 15 One X so far
latest issue? dust under the screen in three at least
you are the one being misleading and fooling yourself and yes we have one perfect flawless one x and its really a piss off when it so hard to find one like it
One x is brilliant if you get a good one, but it is a lottery. Who did you replace the phone with for 15 times
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA
Dust would drive me insane! The chipping issue on the ONE S is not good at all.
The phone plays 720p fine in a dedicated media player but it does not like 720p in youtube in the browser.
I do like my ONE S just wish it would work properly (internet and MAO coating).

The Previous poster is right, It's you who is being misleading.
I believe the defective unit rate would be more like >10% (Still bad), Remember people like to complain more than they like to praise, hence why you'd see a disproportionate amount of negative results.
also, I find it hard to believe you're on your 15th one X?!
Why not Give up at your 3rd?

Not to say that dust under the screen isn't a defect, and it would definitely drive me crazy, but I would be surprised if my girlfriend would notice any of the build defects that people return one x's for.

I actually don't what to thank your post but the app I'm using is to damn sensitive. Sorry.
Whoa, thanks revoked! That's pretty harsh, lol!!
I'm with basil3...to any of us here, the most minute little inconsistency will drive us mad and we will post and ***** and moan about it all day long, but to most people, such things don't even compute. It's the same reason "most people" buy iPhones...they just don't know any better and any old POS will do.
Fwiw, I also have a perfect OneX. Still stock and brilliant in every way. I also find it difficult to believe someone would keep going back to something that they found defective fifteen times...
get the XL if you are on tmobile..if you buy the international version you will be stuck with edge unless you live in an area that tmo has refarmed their 1900 spectrum to handle 3G (which I doubt it)

lol your kidding me right....im on my 2nd personal One X and my 15th unbox for buyers, friends, which i convinced them to buy and my hand picking efforts in stores
i wasted a hell of my time on the mega thread and everyone who knows me know im an HTC freak fan and number one HOX fan, but sorry whats going on with the HOX is hard to deny when it start to burn you
i didnt give up because i want a perfect one so badly! if thats not clear enough!
i bet your screen have so sort of defect and u didnt even bother looking
i can flood you with HOX serial photos if you want

Why we love the HTC One X!

As I read through the daily posts in the One X forum I'm increasingly finding more and more people needlessly moaning about all aspects off the One X and about HTC and that's fine I guess, people have issues and want to get that out in the open and get some feedback
but I think with all this negative feedback we who love our One X and HTC need to voice that and balance out the pros and cons debate!....
So this thread is for you to tell the rest of the world why you love and enjoy your One X & HTC so much!
Please don't turn this into a thread full of silly and pointless arguments
well we had threads like this
and i'm already the emabassador for the One X so i don't need to repeat myself lol
perhaps you should start
I remember the first time I saw the HTC Desire HD and I just couldn’t believe what a fantastic phone it was! everything about it was beautiful! ...and then came the One X and I new I just had to have one!!
What a phone! HTC made me feel that magic feeling all over again! It looks absolutely fantastic! the shape, the screen size, the colours, sense 4 and not forgetting it’s the worlds first HTC quad core phone! wtf QUAD CORE!?!! I went for the white version, I’ve never had a white phone before but white was created for the One X! there simply perfect together! ...these are just some of the things I like about the One X but I what do you like about it!?

this is lame..
with samsung dominating the market, their phones becoming easier and easier to root and custom rommed..
last time it used to be odin, now there's cwm touch for samsung phones and also hardware hacks that are influenced by software. even modems on samsung phones are flashable.
im giving htc one last chance, unveil a godly tegra 4 phone with superb camera (better or on par with samsung) and also NO wifi pin problems or anything similar. htc better keep their game up, or im going to jump ship too.
software problems are fine because they can be fixed. but hardware as terrible as the wifi pins problem on the hox? no.
if that happens again, i will definitely jump ship
edit : 1 week after the hox came out, the RRP for it was RM 2099. 2 weeks later, it's RM 1899. today, a 1 week old set costs a thriffling rm 1399 and a new set costs another thriffling rm 1649. the s3 stood strong at rm 1999 today and the RRP was 2199

Did you even read the topic of this thread? it's for people you like/love/enjoy there One X
One word: screen. Compared with the ridiculous pentile AMOLED s#it, the HOX's screen looks gorgeous. Sure if you have never seen it, you might think that a 4.7" 720p screen will not suffer from the pentile matrix, but when you look at them side by side, the difference is huge. And when you add the more accurate colors, the CPU which has games optimized for it, the comming of the cheap Tegra3 console which will drive more developers to optimize their games for it, the overall look and feel of the phone (I hate shiny plastic stuff) and you get a device which is truly a marvelous piece of technology.

All three issues already fixed in latest batches and software
Ill donate to have you away to the sgs3
+1
I like HTC because they are already working on jelly bean, that is the main factor of owning awesome smartphone - the updates, samsung lost this battle hard when they couldn't or didn't want to update galaxy s anymore - which is very nice powerful phone even today, probably wouldn't buy One X if they went the other way.
+2
I have not seen One X screen before i bought it, now i cant imagine more perfect screen quality, nothing can beat that.
+3
Just android and google experience, I wouldn't even look at One X if it had like windows phone rubbish, there are differences in companies strategy, Google gives me youtube, android system, mail account, search and maps FOR FREE, Microsoft is completely opposite, its not user friendly - just watch how bad METRO is for desktop and how many ppl complain - they are not listening.

Latest batches ? Am I suppose to look for serial numbers or HTC recall the messed up batches and fix them ? cause its a shame to have exchange 4 hoxes and none of them worth the money I paid for ,none of them feel like a quadcore ,all of them have had faults, repair centers a mess .......
I have had other android phones. Even though I love android over iOS, I never had a phone feel more sophisticated in hand over the iPhone. The HOX is the best phone I've ever had. It feels better in my hand over the iphone for sure! (without a case obviously)
My HOX is better than the IPhone because of the big beautiful screen! Just love playing movies, games and surfing the internet on it!
And of cause the mighty Tegra 3
To the people who are complaining: why do you keep *****ing over your stupid problems in a thread where the OP so clearly states that it is a positive thread ment for encouragement. Take your selfpity to one of the many threads that is meant for whining.

Obviously you're unhappy. Either take it up with HTC or move on. Either way I see little reason for you to keep behaving like a brat here.
I just don't get why people that are unhappy with a device and know they will never be happy with it, insist on punishing themselves instead of growing a pair and growing up.
My HTC One X rocks. I don't twist it like a frisbee so I haven't found this magical 'twisting' that some folks have whined about.
The screen is awesome. No yellow tint or dots. If I had found either I would not have bought it (Or for the slow people SEND IT BACK.)
Very snappy. I haven't rooted or flashed it, but it sounds like half the complainers may have had a bad flash or flashed the wrong version and are now pooping fireworks because they effed up their phone.
