Develop Bugs

I hope you guys enjoy the 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?

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 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

So are you guys sticking with the One X then? I'm undecided.

So I have never considered the S3 before, but I have two weeks left to replace my One X (Second One X with dodgy compass) and I am wondering whether to just give up and ask for a S3 instead.
First of all let me say that I LOVE the One X, and the better screen and sleeker looks are more than enough for me to pick it over the S3 with it's otherwise stronger specs - were it not for the faults with the device.
Build quality is iffy, and I have had two HOXes now, both of which have had dodgy gps which just don't work (they show me spinning around on the spot and moving around rapidly on the map when I am standing still). But perhaps getting another replacement would fix that.
But that isn't all. The fact that wi-fi turns off when the phone goes into stand-by is a huuge inconvenience, as I have to keep on interacting with the phone whenever I am down/uploading a large file, so it doesn't stop half way through. I shouldn't have to do this.
Also, the multi-tasking is pretty awful and doesn't seem to have been coded well at all.
Now my question is, do you guys foresee these problems being sorted out in the not-too-distant future, or are you considering switching over to the S3 as well? Also, do you expect the S3 to have similar problems when it comes out?
I just want to reiterate that I love this phone and really don't want to slag it off, but the combined problems are really getting me down, and I don't think an expensive top-end mobile should should be so flawed.
TY for any thoughts and opinions in advance.
EDIT: Ok well. Two of the biggest problems I had with the One X seem to have been solved already.
First of all, the 1.29.0.11 (??) patch has apparently fixed multi-tasking.
Also, some genius has managed to show me a fix for the wi-fi turning off when the phone is in standby.

I tried this out, and my phone's wifi now stays connected even when the screen is turned off!! Woop!!!!
Still leaves the factor of a dodgy GPS, but I am more than happy to get a replacement HOX as the other main problems have been alleviated

Same question for me. I got 2nd one atm and still got probs with it. Like the GPS like you, gap on the side, WiFi turnin off....... I like this thing and I want it workin but now I'm in the role that I could change to another device on Vodafone Germany because its getting the 3rd replacement. I don't know what to do too... Greetz

Yes.
But even if it stayed on until the download was finished, that wouldn't be OK in my opinion.

I am for at least 12 months. As much as the lack of s-off is annoying it isn't the deal breaker so long as HTC are releasing pretty regular updates for the bugs found. As far as my devices build quality is concerned I have no problems. Just not worth using htcdev until half way through my contract risking the loss of warranty.
The device itself should entertain me as is for 12 months. Hunting S-OFF is a side attraction until then post that date root via htcdev will see me the latter half of the contract by keeping me interested.

Sticking with One X for now unless something real enticing comes. SGS3 was a disappointment IMO. Maybe the Sony GX or the next Nexus I'll upgrade. Maybe even iPhone 5
SGS3 has multitasking problems also according to a reviewer/user if we're talking about the same problem.
Wi-Fi should be fixed, One S had it fixed I believe.
I personally haven't run into wi-fi problems recently. For a a little while when running a new build of ARHD, I all of a sudden got the wi-fi problems ppl were talking about. Didn't have the problems before that. Switched over to LeeDroid and haven't run into the wi-fi problem since.

You can set a longer screen off time when downloading, also I'm sorry to say I don't have the same problems :/

as much as i hate to say this i am undecided as well..now if my carrier comes back to me and they say i can replace my handset then i will go for the s3. now do not get me wrong i love my one x. but at the same time with all the issues going on kinda puts me off. hence how do i know i will not get another dodgy one..if they say they can only repair it then i will hold off sending it as it is still fully functional and were i have the creaking i stuck a case over it and it has stopped for now..so it goes like this
replace it for me then i am going for the s3
if they say no then one x it is and still a great device and i have recommended it to a few of my friends and hoping they get a good batch

you aren't serious about the iPhone, aren't you ?

im selling mine when i borrow a camera for pics. i made a mistake leaving Samsung. i might get the nexus though. Google wallet might actually work. i have never seen so many duplicate threads, clueless users, and mods choosing when to enforce rules and when not to.

I'm selling mine as soon as it comes back from HTC, should be a brand new one. I won't open it and will sell it straight away and buy a S3.

Yeah it is pretty nasty looking isn't it! I also don't like the idea of having 16gb base memory even if it is expandable. I much prefer the 32gb internal memory of the One X over Micro SD as it is so much quicker - and I dont need to fork out even more money for an SD card.
Hmmmm..... This is really annoying. Why couldnt you just get the phone right HTC!!??

The question is no different than asking "which should I buy, a M-B E Class or BMW 5 Series?" Both have strengths and weaknesses and neither is immune from issues.
The same applies to the One X vs. SGS3 comparison.
Here's a list of reasons why not to get a One X over a SGS3.
1) You like SAMOLED displays.
2) You need better battery life than the 1800mAh non-removable battery in the One X can provide.
3) You want removable storage.
4) You don't like the One X design or are partial to the SGS3's.
5) You like TouchWiz better than Sense.
6) HTC's new warranty policy for flashing third-party ROMs either scares you or pisses you off.
7) You fancy some of the s/w features like Direct Talk, S-Voice, and Smart Stay.
8) You use $300 plus headphones or have several thousands of dollars’ worth of home A/V equipment and the Wolfson DAC's important.
Here's a list of things that are going to be the same.
1) Initial build quality issues.
2) Initial s/w problems.
3) Variations from display-to-display.
4) Durability and longevity.
5) Excellent development support.
Voice calls, e-mail, MMS, social, and web browsing make up 70% of what people do with smartphones. In those areas it would be hard to tell the two phones apart. Happy decision making.
P.S. – For those on their 9th exchange, now hate HTC for whatever reason, or have expectations no phone ever produced could meet; there’s no need to re-post what you’ve most likely already posted a dozen times. I, and I’m sure others get it; the One X has some launch issues and because of that your life is forever altered.

sticking with it.. does everything I need and it's the sexiest phone on the market right now. so why would I need to move? Plus I'm on a 2 year contract so doesn't justify me breaking my contract or selling my phone for less than its actual worth.

@BarryH I think that's a little unfair. I wasn't trying to run through faults that have already been covered at great length elsewhere on the forum. Nor was I asking for a basic tally of pros and cons of S3 versus the One X.
My aim was to gauge the community's loyalty towards the One X given the faults and flaws that the device shipped with, and whether many would be making the switch over to the S3.
Also, the majority of the problems with the One X are not examples of people being overly picky or entitled - they are cases of the phone simply not doing what it was designed to do. Now I have no idea if or how long it will take HTC to fix them, but that is why I asked what peoples' thoughts about that where in the original post.
Thanks for responding

I wasn't faulting your original question. Sorry if it came across that way. The One X vs. SGS3 comparison/debate will be ongoing for most of the year. I was just trying to provide a check list for people on the fence. I'd guess most people leaving the One X would be going to the SGS3 anyway. I never did answer your original question. I'm getting a SGS3 and using it for a week or two before deciding which phone to keep. And not because I think there's anything wrong with the One X.

Is it this bad :(

HTC One X - HTC's New Hero Device! Mega Information Thread

I had a HOx for a few weeks and he has valid points. I showed friends the pictures I took with the HOX and they all said my HTC Incredible S took better pictures than the HOX. It was on latest 1.29 firmware.
And not only the videos are choppy, the whole UI experience is choppy, like 20fps. It is really depressed to see that the hava a full GPU, quad core power and android 4 and STILL aren't able to manage a smooth scrollinge experience (like iphone scrolling). And I know people see this but choose to ignore it, game menus scroll smooth but the actual OS lags...
edit: I had 3 HOXes, the all act the same (hardware issues ignored)

But to sum at that huge thread, I'd say it like this;
If you get a fault-free one, it's a fantastic phone.
BUT....your chances of getting a fault-free phone are much less than they should be.
If you want to take part in the HTC One X crap-shoot, please be prepared to pursue HTC with warranty returns until they get it right. Do not unlock bootloader until you are happy with it!

Agreed I got a perfect hox and it such a good phone, it sucks that most come out doa. Take a look at the best picture you've taken you can get extremely good pictures from it, most people just point and shoot which doesn't give any camera justice.

From my experience with sgs2, we had plenty of complaints about it. but boy the complaints list on this HOX are by far more.
shame on htc to do this
I am not going to give up, i might wait for htc to push new batch before I buy one, may be next month

thx for ur reply m8, how is there batch date, or serial sequence to decide the goodness of the device? I want to check before taking it home

I didn't feel like listening to 15 minutes "whining" but compared to the sgs2 I got when it was out the hox actually already is pretty good, battery life is as good as the sgs2 after a year, no screen defects/flickering. I only have one issue though it could be considered quite a big issue and I really hope it's a software issue and it is that the sim card isn't recognised anymore and consequently the hox stops working as a phone until I reenter the pin

all in all, The HOX is bit of hit an miss. am I right ?

No, it's the best (smart)phone I ever had, I love this phone much more even than my Desire.

The One X is a fantastic device and you're MUCH more likely to get a working version than a faulty one. The only reason it LOOKS like there are loads of faulty ones is because people who have a fully functional, working device don't start threads complaining about it
There's a poll on here comparing how many people have a working one against those who have a faulty one and guess which came out on top by quite a considerable margin... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1585082&highlight=poll
Also, as this is a developers forum, people who have faulty devices are going to stumble across devices to try and find a fix. The problems aren't any way near as widespread as it seems.
Of course, defective devices shouldn't be reaching customers at all, but there's nothing you can do about that I'm afraid

No, its worse then that ... there are people reporting stranger lies

After optimising and disabling some apps that were sucking my battery down (which was my main gripe about this phone) I am more than happy with the HOX. The camera is sweet, games/emu's run great and the screen (even on 25% brightness) pops out. Well worth a purchase.

you can not go wrong with this phone mate. best option is to find a store close by to you which you can go and check the phone for yourself before taking it away with you. explain your fears to the sales assistant and see what they say and if they let you inspect it. but anyways if you get a perfect one you are in business and you could not ask for a better phone. i really hope development picks up more in our forums as this deserves nothing but the best.
s3 is another top handset but i feel there is more to the one x. development for the s3 will be huge. but think about this.
you are using Touchwiz and you are thinking man this is ugly. you want to change it but you get fed up with the launchers as well. you wish you could try sense but you can not as it is hard to port to a sammy phone and second no one has done that. were on the One X not only you have sense but we have now cm9 and you can use Touchwiz launcher as well. so you are getting yourself a beast of a phone mate

I think some people have good luck and some have bad. I've had mine for more than a week and it's perfect. However, I've accompanied someone to collect a replacement for a faulty unit. Guess what, went back home to charge and the red light is not showing on the replacement unit. I've also heard a lot of complaints ranging from battery not charging, unit not turning on, squeaky phone edges.
If quality control doesn't improve soon, and with all the SG3 hype, One X might find itself sliding down a slippery slope.

take me as an example I was about to buy one, but now I have to do a masters degree in understanding/avoiding the faults which can come with it

Are you still in love with your X?

The purpose of this thread is to see how many people are still loving their One X.
I was fascinated when I bought it. It was the most beautiful piece of technology I ever owned or even laid my eyes on. I still love it. For some time a week ago I was really disappointed in HTC. Not giving us S-OFF. Not releasing Jellybean even tough they promised to. But then I flashed a really nice ROM and it kind of made me think my choice of the One X over SGS3 was right. I flashed ICJ and it's a new phone. I just needed a change, got bored of the stock JB. And seeing all the tweaks and options on that ROM just reminded me of how great this phone is.
Do you share my point of view or have you already lost faith in HTC?

I still love my htc one x but it doesn't changes the truths like late jelly bean and no s-off. I will sell my hox and buy a n4 just because I want the pure google rom and google support.

Why are you happy with your choice of the One X over the SGS3 when you are having a better experience with TouchWiz, the default SGS3-launcher?
Seems a bit ironic.

I am. Love sense and the hox. For me, the best phone out as of now.

I never said Sense was my choice. I really dislike Sense. I normally use stock JB, but I just wanted to change things up a bit. I chose the One X because my last 3 phones were Samsung and all of them had difficulties with hardware after a year or so. And because it looked a million times better and more high quality compared to the SGS3.

No. I'm getting a Nexus4 ASAP
Küldve az én HTC One X-emről

I've enjoyed my HOX, but I'm too excited about the Nexus 4 right now. It's been fun but it's time to move on.

I really fall in love with mine every time I watch a video on it or play a game i'm not that bothered by not having JB yet or that it's s-on This is the first android phone I'm really happy with just stock the only thing I would change is the battery and I'm gonna check at my local service center if they can hook me up with a x+ batt then I'll be happy with every aspect of it

Fed up of the jb fiasco no more HTC for me.

Wow, you haven't got JB? Tell me how your life sucks because you don't have jellybean installed on your phone! (If you want updates that bad why didn't you buy a Nexus?)
I'm very pleased with my HOX, an overall great phone with a beautiful screen.

Exactly how I feel
Only one more thing bothers me. My one x was one of the early ones but had none of the defects many people was having.
But in the last two weeks yellow spots has started appearing

Well, I was never in "love" with any phone I owned; but I am pretty happy with it as the main electronic device of my daily life, with the laptop and TV.
can say that it is the one which broke the Sony trio, but not unhappy or regretted with that choice.
Still I want the whole Android experience and some HTC experiences to be improved, but I will not cry for things I already knew before buying this phone.
Fiasco? Not releasing JB even promised?
I think you better change the point of view you have on some specific cases. Otherwise you will never ever be happy with any piece of stuff you own.

Wow, some interesting opinions here.
When I first got my HOX, I loved it, it got the WiFi antenna problem, I sent out in for repair, it came back with a broken case, I sent it back it came back with the screen chipped and yellow spots, sent it back and now I have a new HOX.
So for quite a while I was not happy, but now I'm in love again. I got a cheap silicon case which gives it better grip (I find it a bit slippery to hold as it is) also I notice the led seems to be in a better spot. So it good all round.
As for the infamous jelly bean, that's the icing on the cake. Can't live without Sense, so don't want to flash stock.

First Smartphone
This is my first ever smart phone which is also first android phone..
When first time i saw this phone back in March-12, the first impression was for me, forget the budget... if i have to buy a phone... it will be HOX only..
Forget iphone or BB, even S3 was not in options for me...
and later what happened is just a history now... i have flaunted this phone in my social circle as much as one can do with their Ferrari or Lamborghini..
and i am also happy because after seeing my HOX, few more people were convinced to buy HOX or HOX+ instead of S3...
And no need to mention that, i never switched to any custom ROM.. all pure HOX with Sense

Still happy with the HOX in some kind but honestly: Since i got me a Note 2 for work i touch the HOX more less and less.

after 5 months with my hox i still in love with it! amazin design and everytime i watch it i love it more!
no s-off, but why do we need s-off now? we have everything we need and we'll have it for long time, and if we'll have s-off too in the future it will just be better!
amazing hardware, amazing display and amazing sense! if i'm bored by sense, i install cm10 or just any other launcher! and i can return to sense whenever i want!

I hate my one x. Gorilla glass cracked at 1 foot. Crap memory for recovery hence no 4ext. Bad move on no microsd. Only thing good is crisp display and nice processor.
HTC failed!

i haven't used many phones... would you tell me which SMART phone screen can survive after falling on ground?? i might have been just lucky because mine has fallen 3 times (yes i remembered each, it was mini-heart attack for me) but i guess screen has survived some how..
