Yeah I too want a htc desire v thread. And by the way this phone is also available in India. It was released in August.
HTC Desire V is also available in Pakistan.
As for rooting HTC Desire V, here is a working tutorial + flashing CWM: http://www.teamandroid.com/2012/09/...oid-403-install-clockworkmod-custom-recovery/
HTC Desire V is also available in the UK now, I'm getting one on Friday. Can we have a Desire V forum please :fingers-crossed:
HTC Desire V is also available in Indonesia for Rp 2.999.000 (around $300). It's only major drawback is the single core CPU and minimalistic support from devs (maybe due to dual sim and asian market). Anyway, I liked my device.
Not official but looks legit

That list is very short... I don't believe in it although Football made it.
This isnt bad news at all. Ofcoz they will roll out JB first to their massively high end phones.
DX will get JB since its a 2012 October release and mounts 768MB ram. Both of these criteria are what HTC highlighted as the most important factors for getting JB.

OK, if HTC doesn't update the Desire X to JB, I'll be sending my first email of complaint, it's a brand new model %£*$³²&²&²**
I think its just a preliminary report covering all devices tested cause if you observe they are all the top-end phone models only.
So i doubt this may be the case Hell i get tech support telling me Htc one v will also get jellybean so dont lose hope just yet.:good:
lol at you guys moaning, the one v wont get JB at all, and it came out the same time as the HOS+HOX

We can moan all we want, we don't have a OneX+ :silly:
One v wont get it because of 512 RAM. All phones above this will get it. Go and read official htc announcement.
<---Slide(it)d from my Desire X --->
Guys it's not official, and in the official blog of HTC, they say every 2012 phone with more than 512 MB RAM will get an update to JB, so calm down...
So all relevant info is exchanged, the rest is wild guessing. So relax and wait. Not that there would be anything else you could do...
Therefore I close this now.
i want to know if htc desire x will get jelly
Htc desire x specs are capable for jelly bean. But sadly htc says somewhere on the internet (just google it) desire x will not get jelly bean upgrades.
But let's see. Who knows htc will change their plans

This info isn't right. This phone will get jb. No site saying the opposite. Even HTC published that all 2012 phones (excluding one v and desire c) will get jb (so all above 512 mb ram). They started the update based on device relevancy so OX+, OX, OS and desire x is next in the line (I wrote on htc support and they said Q1 2013

i have try to find on google wether desire x will get jellybean or not i just cant find it.
but i do find that des x not gonna get a jelly bean updates from here.
http://news.softpedia.com/news/Android-Jelly-Bean-Update-List-for-HTC-Smartphones-Leaks-313471.shtml
"Although some of these smartphones have already received the promised Jelly Bean update, some of these handsets haven’t been mentioned by HTC yet when referring to its Android 4.1 upgrade plans.
The leaked details come in line with HTC’s latest statement, which mentions that the company will not update to Android 4.1 Jelly Bean smartphones with 512MB or less RAM, including the HTC Desire X and HTC Sensation."
i do hope that articles wrong though and of course that is not 100% correct imo unless htc officials said so.
until then. we'll just have to wait
The article is wrong because before the launch of desire x, the specs are little lower. Guys on the leak sites thought that mid range phone will have 512 ram. But HTC made it slighter higher so the required specs for jb have been met. As you can read in the quoted article is says: all 512 mb ram devices, including one v, desire x and sensation...

I hope you're right, but HTC is known for not so great support in providing official updates for their devices. The only thing that can keep our hope is that DesX is still a relatively new device and HTC provides official support for about 2 years from the release of a device.

I will tell you one thing dude. Tell your friend to buy HTC One S or One VX or anything other than Desire X.
FOR ONE DAMN GOOD REASON, THEY TOOK OUT FULL SENSE FROM DESIRE X. (CAPS MODE COS ME MAD LIKE HULK)
I mean they could have included the full sense (4.1) instead of a crapped down 4.1a. I bought DX to get the goodies of full sense along with ICS. I was really disappointed to see it was lite version. And i am afraid they might strip down 4+ to 4+a...now that would be really a kick in the a$$
Sensation XE, XL all had similar ram of 768mb and had full sense. Desire X is supposed to be greater than them as its the next iteration of htc brand
So tell your friend to buy a phone, if he is buying HTC, a full sense phone like the ones i mentioned above if he wants to remain near the budget of Desire X.
PS: Thankx to chefs like ckpv5 and The Android Manual we are atleast getting a "sense" of full sense, which my pal, is actually ported from One S, One X if i am not wrong.
For example: you can see why lite and full sense is mentioned here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2081430

yeah man. i was disappointed i didnt. i checked the specs and i just thought it had all the stuff. i was so happy to see the little sucker i didnt perform a full check in store.
later i noticed it didnt had some stuffs like widgets, themes, scenes and all that load i was hoping for. never will this happen to me.
so if i get a new htc it would go through full inspection first on the youtube (lots of unboxing videos) and in store also.
thankx for the arrow in the knee comment. hehehehe
I'm glad it's not full sense because I don't use sense at all (launcher, lock etc). That's the reason I bought it

As said before, i have no mails or screenshots. The discussion was personal on their f&q online thread. I have no need to lie. Even if they lied to me, I think that update will be soon because otherwise the htc will go against its own rules and policy. (2012 phones with more than 512 ram - all checked by desire x)

sad news guys htc desire x will note get jelly bean
The leaked details come in line with HTC’s latest statement, which mentions that the company will not update to Android 4.1 Jelly Bean smartphones with 512MB or less RAM, including the HTC Desire X
Obviously, this device is missing from the leaked list, but that was to be expected. Those who still own this Android phone might want to upgrade to a newer device or search for other unofficial Jelly Bean builds.
Desire X has 768 Mb of RAM.

Just look at "What devices will not get Android 4.1?" and you'll see that Desire X is NOT included in that list (unlike the One V and Desire C) so we don't know when it will be released or if it's not, it's just not confirmed.

I have been through many porting guides and I'm learning java too! I have two entrance coming in end of this month till starting of next month! So, you guys must be patient! Venom team doesn't allow porting of roms directly, you have approach them and submit your build with no bugs or least bugs, then they will approve your build and you will be official maintainer for that particular device! Those who can help me please post here or pm me! Please DON'T thank me cuz I'm not sure I can do it! So, just wait and if you can help me!

Desire C has 600mhz processor with 512ram and it runs sense 4.0 on ics
I think you need to have higher random read/write speeds for using swap. But these speeds are very less for class 10 cards.

Desire C has Sense 4.0A instead of Sense 4.1(which is viper), which makes a huge difference.
