I wonder why there isn't a section for the phone now that it has been announced..
It's hard to develop on a phone when it's not released yet.

don't need to be actively developing on it to setup the section that will inevitably be created. Will give people a chance to become acquainted, and a formal place to discuss the phone.
I'll be there!!! Specs's look waaaayyyyyy better than the GN, and we'll still get ICS before the actual "update". So I'm in!

Well.. there is a Razr and Galaxy Nexus section.. only reason I asked.
That's true. Maybe the admins will make a section for it soon, just give it time. It's such a big phone, it's nearly impossible they'll neglect to put it up soon-ish
android central's got their rezound section up...just sayin

hey everyone... is development here dead or what? i saw ics was being worked on but got dropped. along with miui, a senseless rom, and others...
is there anything we can do to make more development here?
No development is not dead, if your new here, there are a couple things you should know. First, the dev doing all the work here, xboarder56, was banned I believe, he has his own forum and all of his roms are there. Nrgz28, an awesome dev, has an amazing rom. Faux123 has a kernel for OC/UV. Ics is being worked on by xboarder and a member of the cm team. A sense 4.0 port is on the works by a dev in xboarders forum. So, no, development is not dead. If we want more devs devving here, I think we should do what has been done before, a bounty. I believe someone has spoken to a member of the virtious team.
Edit: sorry, xboarder is working on an aosp build with texasice if you know who he is. And the cm team is working on, well, A cm9 build

Multiple different 3.0 ROMs, a 3.5 and ics in the works. Themes, mods, and toolkits can all be found. Feel free to change custom boot animation if you want. Haven't heard any update on miui.
Not sure I understand your question... What else do you need? Your question "is there anything we can do..." Yes there is something. You could always get s=off for us... There's like a 1k bounty that will reward you for your success.
I'll keep my fingers crossed and will be cheering for you

LMFAO maybe we should get you a skirt and some pom poms? let me know, ill be there, camera in hand
well i've personally never owned any htc phones. so when i get the amaze 4g, it will be my first. i've made many roms and mods for phones with vanilla android though.
what exactly is s=off and how do you make a htc phone "s=off"?
also, i dont see any boot logo changing threads...
heres my boot logo thread: http://androidforums.com/triumph-al...ed-converter-l-updated-12-29-1-20-pm-est.html
so if i am able to figure something out, i should have some goods to bring to the party!
how high is the chance of bricking on this device?

Can't change splash screen without s=off... Only animations. AFAIK, s=off is a security flag put into a system partition to prevent us from flashing new radios, flashing splas screens, or flashing kernels in recovery... HTC has made it more difficult for devs to access this and hack the exploit, so we are for now... Stuck. Team Revolutionary has hacked a few devices, but they don't have an amaze.
It's becoming a pain in the ass. Because the phone is a North American marketed device (vs a world market device)lacks worldwide development... And devs that are in the states that can get the phone don't want it because no s=off.
There's approx a $1k bounty out for whoever hacks it though.... Although nobody seems to be biting on it.
The Amaze forum is a mess... Lol but the phone is a beast.
Edit.... As far as I know, the phone cannot be bricked. I've yet to hear of any "real" brick... Only soft bricks that can be fixed.

its not dead but, I have a feeling its going to be soon. with the discontinuation of the amaze... the parting of xboarder and binary to their own forum. The forum has lost its momentum. what is left from development is from before. compared to the sgsII forum, you can def call the amaze dead on development. yes xboarder is working on ICS and cyanogen is planning of an AOSP rom. I think we will see no other kernel developers besides faux, unless it's for ICS.. and I think the developers we have now are the only ones that we've got. With the anouncement of new HTC phones more developers are going to shift gears...some developers from here might even shift gears...they might send us an update on a rom here and there but that'll be it. if you look at the development of successful phones such as the nexus one, samsung vibrant, galaxy nexus etc, all of them are still going very very strong even though they came out 2 years ago, the vibrant a 2 year old phone already has multiple ICS roms available, multiple kernels, etc. we're pretty much done here. the developers we have here had to be bountied anyways. My personal opinion is that there is no interest left in the amaze development wise besides a couple of developers....sorry but have to be realistic.
well heres the most current cm9 progress https://plus.google.com/106544349933037831956/posts/4Lpyw9bPBCq

Sensation gets mad love, why?
I've been looking at what's been going on at xda & it seems like development for the Amaze is moving but not as fast as the sensation. Is it easier to develop for that phone than it is for this one. I known this phone has more power than the sensation so why are there so many ROMs for the sensation. Thanks for all your help guys.

I am going to wait and see how the new phones that T-Mobile gets. If the One X has more development, might as well to switch over with something that has more activity.
I would say there are two main differences between this phone and the Sensation. (1) The Sensation is owned by far more people (ergo, more developers), and (2) Development is more difficult without S-off. I'm just guessing here, because I'm not a developer, but those seem to be our biggest problems.

Right. But that's for the international One X with a tegra processor. This one is for the US variants with a snapdragon processor. Sure, this probably could have fit in that thread but it's not a "repost".
Anyway, to stay on topic: As much as I want to be excited, this is for the One line and I know our devices are pretty similar but until I hear it from HTC I wont be holding my breath. I'm sure we will also get the update, it's just comforting to hear it straight up from them.
HTC's quote doesn't say anything about the AT&T and T-Mo variants specifically...Just that the One S, One X and One XL...all of which I believe also exist out side the US.
Now that's not saying that I don't believe we will eventually get some JB love.
But also, our phones are different from the One series and it still doesn't mention us.

You're not much of a reader, are you?
The article from Engadget was referring to Telestra. An Australian network that just so happens to have the dual-core S4 processor version of the One X, dubbed the "One XL." It also mentions this:
If you happen to own a non-LTE, Tegra 3-based One X, then the absence of that handset on the list doesn't mean much -- that model simply isn't part of the carrier's line-up.

GG, though.
Yeah the xl referres to the att one x. I saw that article also. It is from yesterday I believe. Not 100 sure.
Anyways if the one xl gets it we basically get it

Correct, on the other article. This release came just now (looking at Engadgets post time). Reason would dictate that this IS for the US variants. It would seem strange for HTC to announce the same thing twice. Not to mention that Engadget also made two articles about it.
Regardless your attitude is unwarranted. There is no need to be a jerk. You don't know if I read or not. I did. The above is what makes logical sense. "GG" What is that even about? There is no competition. I shared my opinion, if you can't be nice about it, don't reply.

There's nothing I need to be nice about. It's a repost. That's the problem with these threads. For some reason, everyone seems to think that there's only 1 page of threads started, and completely ignore the autosearch when creating a new thread. Someone before me posted saying it was a repost, then someone called him an "a hole," and said it wasn't a repost. Then I post, with a link for proof and explain, and all of a sudden it's, "Well, that's the Tegra 3 version" (Which it wasn't). What does it matter what version of the phone it is?
Are we going to have a new thread started when they announce that the One X for AT&T gets confirmation? Then the one that's for Vodafone? How about creating a new one as well for when O2 gets confirmation? Then one for Rogers...
Do you see where I'm going with this?
No need to get at each other's throats guys. In all fairness explicits thread was first but this threads info is technically new and (official). The original article posted yesterday was based on Telstra's support website. All articles that were written based off of that info assumed since the One XL (equivalent of ATT One X) was getting it as well as the One S to expect the Tegra 3 One X (International One X) to get it as well as other variants. This article is HTC officially confirming that the (International) One X, One XL, and One S are getting it.

So then add that to the original one. Then the OP (Myself) will update it. That's what people should be doing when creating threads, managing them. If you can't take the time to manage the threads you create, don't create one.

Trust me I get that, but we all know what happens here on XDA. When new articles pop up people look at the first page and if they don't see anything about it make a new thread. I'm not excusing it because yes the info can be consolidated. However the OP will just state they know that there is a thread with similar information but this is new or official or what not and wanted to make a thread about it so the info doesn't get lost. Some will agree, some will not. If you don't you can just report the thread and mods will deem whether it should be closed or merged.

You're not a moderator. If you want to be one so badly, apply to be one. This is a community, therefore you have an obligation to act like it, as does everyone else here. Play nice or don't play at all. It's an elementary concept. If things bother you so much, use the report button so moderators can do their jobs instead of everybody trying to police the fora themselves.

Explicit, your thread is buried, and the title doesn't imply that any US versions are getting JB. The image within the thread is in regards to Telstra, which is just one carrier. This statement is from HTC themselves, and it presented right away as such. Therefore, even though your thread came first, this one has information more pertinent to us.
So get over it.

Actually, they're both talking about the same phones really, considering the Telestra model is the same as the AT&T model (Processor and all).

OK, since I'm still very new to things Android, but love to experiment ... I was thinking of trying my hand at porting a ROM to our phone.
BUT, how do you choose the right place to start ?
What device out there is closest to the Desire X, hardware wise, to use ? I've seen people here using the One V, but what about the Desire V for example ?
What things do I have to look for before picking a rom to port to the Desire X ?
Maybe this should be in the Q&A section, I don't know.

If people here knew that much, we would have lots more ports then the single rom we currently have. Android Manual is the only person who has done it yet. I say, your best bet is to google around as it would help you more. If you wanna build aosp roms (cm9/aokp etc) then i can help you, otherwise i cant. Lloir has a github device/vendor/hardware tree and rest of manifest you can copy from github.com/cyanogenmod and start building.
Good luck.

Ok, sorry I posted here, mods can delete/move this thread and slap me for me trying to help development lol .. I have googled this a lot before actually and what I understand is you need a device that is similar enough, hardware wise, to the one you're porting to to avoid problems. I'm sure someone with more experience than me thought about this and knows more.
Would be awesome if I had a rom to start from, instead of trying to build from scratch, even llior couldn't do it, although he didn't have a Desire X.

It isn't that lloir cannot do it. He can and he is doing it. If you visit his github page you'll see he is actively fixing device tree for proto, meaning that a number of aosp Roms are just around the corner. Just have patience. As soon as first aosp comes alive, I promise aokp/cm9 for us. Got zero experience in sense porting that's why I'm not of much use now.

Yea, you probably have the most experience of us here building from scratch (I looked at your profile) ... LLoir said it before, he's too busy to debug his initial device and vendor trees and he doesn't have a Desire X, which is why other people have taken over (sometimes without permission). Trust me, android manual, stereo, maarten and me have been on the DX forum since it started and have been following up on stuff :cyclops:
But, back to topic : when porting, I understand you need a rom from the same manufacturer and with the same resolution (800x480, 233 dpi). What about the cpu though ? The One V which is 800x480 and 250dpi (because the screen size is slightly smaller) and is single core, our phone is dual core. Also, nobody found a way to S-Off the Desire X yet.
Considering all that, all I wanted to know is what ROM for what device out there would be the "easiest" to try and port to the DX ?
thanks btw for helping, much appreciated :good:

Trust me, android manual, stereo, maarten and me have been on the DX forum since it started and have been following up on stuff :cyclops:
But, back to topic : when porting, I understand you need a rom from the same manufacturer and with the same resolution (800x480, 233 dpi). What about the cpu though ? The One V which is 800x480 and 250dpi (because the screen size is slightly smaller) and is single core, our phone is dual core. Also, nobody found a way to S-Off the Desire X yet.
Considering all that, all I wanted to know is what ROM for what device out there would be the "easiest" to try and port to the DX ?
thanks btw for helping, much appreciated :good:

See i got no experience porting stuff coz its a mixed bag of hit n trial with no sure way of success. Dont get me wrong, i LOVE sense to bits, but porting is a thing which i tried n tried and gave up eventually.
Basically, you need to follow a simple guide (like one from proxuser, google it) and replace the necessary files. Most important is device resolution so u dont have to resize everything. CPU wont bother you much as you replace most of the vendor n hardware libs.
Once you get to boot animation, you're halfway there. Then its just logcat, and fixing the error lines by replacing stuff you guess will fix it. But getting to bootanimation loop is the hardest part.
I suggest you port from one v coz no other mainstream device has Qcom S4 PLAY . so dont worry about cpu. As for aosp build, i'm setting up my manifests as lloir has permitted me to use the trees.

Dont put ear to useless remarks. please do continue your work at github as no other person is interested in DX yet. This device isnt attracting much attention, i wonder why. The community isnt hostile, device specs are better than most midrangers. Anyways, im upgrading to mint 14 and then will resetup build envirnmt.

"and some remarks that were said to me."
Hope that wasn't me, thanks for the CWM, I've always said that. That was a big break for us man
Test this cm9 build please.

Yep, no use. Didn't boot. Don't worry, I'm using another phone as primary so I can work full time on this Rom. Infernal77 is also doing the same

Is anyone here able to built a CM11 for D802?
For HTC One there are 3 builder but the closest device to Nexus 5 has no-one that can do this? Please help.
Any patience? It's being worked on. No ones getting paid to dev for this device.

that's bad. this device is so nice and fast. compared with my HTC One it is generations ahead.
There's no point in asking this question. Do you really think there's devs who start building the latest cm for the g2 because you say pretty, pretty please, while if you hadn't asked, they wouldn't build it? I really can't understand why people start threds like this.

wishfull thinking I wager.
No is the answer you always have unless you ask.
Sometimes asking guarantees a no, difficult. lol

threads like this will always keep coming, best is to report it.
Here is how it is: the device is new, as always with new devices it takes time before enough people have the device to work with it. The htc one has been around for some time and enough devs have it to have "3 builders".
In about 6 month when next cm version releases and a new phone releases, guess what? This phone will get the "updates" faster than that new phone. And repeating this year after year until everyone is poor.
