[Q] thinking about buying HOX+ but i got few questions - HTC One X+

helllo i have few question i will be happy to get someanswers
1.alot of people here refering like the phone got two versions att and none branded one is that true?i mean isnt it the same phone(or what is the difference between those two)
2.when the phone launched some people said that it comes with beats headphone (and they even uploaded a picture) but in all the review i see around the web every one says its reguler headphones...so...what is true?
3.i kind of did not get the way that tegra 3 is working with his 5th CPU i mean i got HTC Desire right now that used to use CPU method "on demand" and when i got a call some times it was very laggy and slow when i picked up it was hmm like you need to reach from 30km/h to 100km/h in 1 sec with a fiat punto or other brand that cant do that (i am sorry if i offended anyone :X)
4.i see around the forum that are some people talking about WiFi issues and sounds issues are we talking about specific units or ...(do i need to be worried)?
thats all for now thank you for your time and answers
(i am really really sorry for my bad english)

1) the AT&T 64GB version is only available in the US and has LTE (4G) support and is of course branded with AT&T stuff.
The international 64GB version is available unbranded when bought from electronic shops and branded when bought from carrier shops (the o2 version has a o2 branding even when it is sold without a contract and the Vodafone version has a Vodafone branding ect)
2) I think in the U.K. Vodafone sold a special 32GB version tgether with Beats headfones, but who wants/needs them really?
3) don't worry about not having enough power to fuel your demands, the fifth core is running when the phone is idle so as to safe power, and the other cores are activated according to demand tiger in a tank!
4) I never had any hardware faults with either my ONe X nor One X+, apparently there are issues with the AT&T version on BT crackling sound and some reports on having difficulties to connect to specific routers on their home/work networks.
The intl. X+ does not have WiFi issues really as HTC seemes to have learned from hardware faults on the One X.
The One X+ is an amazing piece of technology, enjoy it!

Thank you for your answer! but since you have HOX+ i will intregate you till death =P (kidding)
you said that the 5th core is being used on idle and i think the idle state is stand by mode so that is actually my question if i am in standby mode and than get a call is there any lags at answering or in touch generaly?
and about the headphones what headphones do you use? because the one that come with it are cheap and beside that i want in ear headphones
so if i will buy unbarnded device i should have no worries?
and one last thing i forgot to ask how is the video recording/taking picture quality?
i saw a video on htc one x video recording which shows a huge lag at the video recording like when you move the phone the picture on the screen lags behind the camera(i hope you got what i meant)
Edit:
i found a video that will show what i mean just skip to 1:31 dont listen to him talking =P or do if you want too
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bZofWCaptBE&feature=related
he is moving his hand in a very stupid way but it does not matter the fact that you move your hand while recording and it might be very annoying
thank you for your answer

I wouldn't buy from that clove website. £474 is a rip off. There is a trusted seller on ebay who is selling them for £399 with free delivery. You can buy from O2 directly for £429. You can unlock them for about £10 I wouldn't pay much over 400 pound on an HTC phone. They lose value so quickly

Bought a HTC Hero g3 from china

My question is its not a 3G phone and I have AT&T here in the states. Will flashing a new ROM add 3G capabilities or is that a hardware issue?
Also can Technologists kernel be added to a stock Hero? Or do I need a custom rom?
Believe it or not, I am not new, played with HTC touch for 1 year and love xda. But still need my hand held for android yet..
I believe the problem is that the GSM here in the states uses a different radio frequency that the hardware isn't capable of switching to...that the rest of the world uses. You might want to confirm what bands China uses compared to EU and US GSM but I know the EU ones don't have full 3G here due to that issue.
yeah the Telus Hero in Canada works on AT&T's 3g but not the EU one.
Ok, well it came today and, well I now have a Tiger WG3 clone in my hands. I will send it back, but wondering how could I check the OS on it? The browsing I did has suggested its android based?
Is there something like TKE explore that will allow me to see the internals??
If this is what you've got, you've been had.
This isn't a Hero, and never will be a Hero. It doesn't/won't run Android.
Sorry!
Dave
Dave,
That looks like it for sure. Did you have one to play around with? I will send it back, but want to explore the insides abit if I can find a program to work with it.
Thanks for the reply.
No, I didn't buy one of those, but I did buy an iPhone mini "clone" because I wanted to try out the "dual sim" side of the phone. Unfortunately, it was a steam pile of dingos kidneys, and judging by the UI of the "Tiger WG3", it comes from the same family!
Hope you get your money back!
Dave
Thank god i found this post - i was about to get a tiger gw3 due to it being a dual sim phone and a hero look alike, so its true - those phones just has a pile of dingos kidneys inside.
thank you

HTC Flyer (Singapore)

Hey guys
I just came back from the Launch of HTC flyer in singapore & found out some of these information. Not sure if it has been said before.
1) Flyer is not capable of making voice calls, only video calls via skype (& voice call via skype)
2) Flyer will be receiving an update of honeycomb
3) Flyer will be on sale in Singapore (3G + wifi) for a retail price of SG$1068.
-They say it will be cheaper when it's on sale
4) If im not wrong it's a 32GB model

Hmm, yeah these are the crucial information. Now my question is.. can we somehow make a custom rom to perhaps port phone.apk from desire S to HTC flyer? It's such a waste that this phone can't make phone calls.
I asked the representatives why and they told me it's cos they don't want consumer to feel irritated having to charge both the phone & the bluetooth headset.
Cheers to all of you who plans to buy this phone
thanks for the info. I believe everybody knows that the device is not able to do voice calls....All blogs on the web describing that, but I believe our dev will succeed porting the phone.apk. But at least the SMS & MMS? What you found out?
It's way too expensive.
If has the communication device (radio) for making calls it sure will be done here.
thinking of buying this one... need more reviews . Which store will it be available?
OK, not only am I mad at HTC mail support to have previously confirmed to me that "The Flyer will definitaly make phone calls" (I keep my hopes for the European version to allow that, but it seems it won't), but the fact that it doesn't is pretty much a dealbreaker to me : I would'nt mind using it as my every day phone, since it does offer a better experience for movie watching in the train or web browsing anywhere (I make very little phone calls), but the cost only (barely) seemed justified by the fact that it had phone internals...
So you don't think Google Talk with video and voice will work for this?

Just because the device supports the required frequencies doesn't mean it will be able to make phone calls out of the box. My T-mobile Galaxy Tab supports the right frequencies too but the phone.apk is crippled so calls can't be made. Even if you flash a custom rom to enable the phone features, you are blocked from 3G access and limited to Edge speeds on the GT on T-mobile in the US.
You might not be limited in the same ways on European carriers but it really depends on how much they want to limit how you use the device on their networks.
Just make sure it works the way you want it to before spending your money.

Don't worry, I never buy a device without being absolutely sure it fullfills my needs.
My last hope for the Flyer is it could be like the Galaxy Tab : being unable to place a phonecall in the US, but being able in Europe. I definitely wouldn't buy a such expensive 7 inch tab if it doesn't replace my cellphone completely. I'd rather go for a 10 inch (probably Transformer) for that use.

You can try a mobile phone accessories shop at Plaza Sing basement 2 in front of Carrefour. I bought my screen protector there. There are 2 different cases for Flyer. I didn't get any and ordered Melkco online.
Hi, you can get casing from sim lim square now.. Few options available.
2 shops at level 1 center arena. they sell same casing but at diff price. I bought it there at a price of $35.
Later then found that level4 also got a shop selling casing. Shop located near to the lift selling many casings for iphone to Samsung Tab and HTC... The shop also do repairing for iphones and other phones.
hi guys, I want to know about the price right now. . .
because in Indonesia the price is going down. . . .

The price has gone down to S$740.00 but you cannot claim tax -refund at the airport as it is not a GST registered company..

White GSII or AT&T Galaxy S II

Hey guys I've had my Galaxy S II for 2 months and just returned it to Amazon because it had some.scratches and because of a dead pixel (also because of.no warrenty in US-which isn't that big of a deal for me). Anyways, wondering if I should get the white unlocked one or an AT&T version for 200 dollars on contract. I'm leaning towards the unlocked white because :
1. It looks badass
2. It will have resell value if I get the Nexus Prime and want to return it
Normally I don't ask others for opinions but I'm just curious to hear some of your guys thoughts on this. Thanks in advance
I can't help you because that's the same exact thing I'm debating.
Not gonna lie, the white one does look awesome. Look here for the differences between the two models: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1308155
But personally, if I had that much cash to spend on a phone, I'd get the Samsung Galaxy Note.
Just a reminder that FM Radio is absent in ATT version and if you care for FM, then opt out from ATT version!

...No, we have the chip but it's not activated. Do your research first.
I have both, and I gave the white one to my GF (she loves it). I love the white but the chrome ring looks cheesy compared to the black version, which has a dark gunmetal colored ring. Also, i prefer the 4 soft keys over the physical key of the international version.

Okay I keep hearing different things in regards to the FM Radio. Some people say it's completely absent in the AT&T version and others are saying that it's there just deactivated through firmware. Can you confirm that the chip is actually there?
I was going to get white from bell Canada but decided to wait and spend the 650 on a 2012 model then sell the att gs2.

I'm in the same spot as you except I can still return my GS2 for a refund. Thing is even if I get a refund, my AT&T plan has already been changed to Smartphone (from iPhone) so would they now roll me back and remove unlimited? I could just eBay the phone but I've had bad experiences on there with thieves trying to do chargebacks two months after receiving the product.

If you see entropy's kernel, he has initially tried to add the kernel module for FM and it was spitting out errors and the errors were pointing to kinda 'no device found'. He ultimately removed this from the kernel.
There are other thread in this forum which details the stressed effort from our members contacting both samsung and ATT about this and samsung finally mentioned that ATT version has only internet radio. ATT has even taken this from their site. Details are here in this thread.

[Q] Differences in AT&T model and unlocked/unbranded?

Hi all,
I've decided to bite the bullet and switch carriers just so I can upgrade from my HD7 to the Titan. Keep in mind I will be unlocking the phone for use on Telus in Canada which is compatible with AT&T 3G.
However I am trying to figure out if there is any benefit to getting the AT&T variant over the unlocked, unbranded model.
I see that on the box for the AT&T model it shows 4G compatible which is cool. So I would assume that using it on Telus would also give me 4G speeds. On the specs for the unlocked model it only shows 3G so I'm wondering if that's not entirely true. I also read somewhere HTC may have included Beats technology in the AT&T version but I doubt it since I haven't heard anything else about that.
I think I'd prefer an unbranded model over the AT&T one but also wondering if anything comes bundled as well that might make one better over the other. Also are the hardware specs identical?
Any help on this would be great
should be no difference or
the only difference is it would be sim locked for their network only the unlocked will work on either telus or at&t without trouble, you could work on sim unlocking the at&t version and that might be a little troublesome, I could be wrong but telus and at&t are promoting FAUX G which is still using 3g with increased speed boost if I am getting this right, hspa+
so the hardware is the same with some minor cosmetic differences (carrier branding vs none) the os and ui with msft strict requirements will be pretty much the same and you could easily uninstall carrier bundled apps, since you do live in canada I would just get the unlocked euro one, you will and I do notice that it switches from H to 3G and then E for Edge every now and then, but if you know how to do it get the at&t version and sim unlock it
Well the unlocked unbranded version uses 3G on 850/900/2100 MHz. AT&T uses 850/1900 MHz. It appears to me that I'm getting HSPA on my Titan, but not HSPA+, but I haven't really tested it very much. You'll have to check what Telus uses for HSPA+ to check if that will work.
Holding down the Windows/Start button brings up the Microsoft Tellme voice activated stuff. It works fine, but the lady has a British accent. This isn't a big deal.
The charger that ships with the unlocked version is the British Standards 1363 plug. Mine also had a BS 1363 to NEMA 5 adapter (aka UK to US), but it was separate from the box, so I think the company I purchased from, eXpansys, threw that in for free. Of course it includes a micro USB charging cable, so any computer USB port or USB wall charger would work, even if you can't use the included charger.
and you know what too with that womans british accent i think the phone is programmed to understand english with an accent, my voice to text experience has been less than stellar lately and my british accent is terrible LOL
Thanks everyone for the info!!
However I'm curious as to which model will give me HSPA+... If anyone can confirm that I'd appreciate it
it dont matter IMO, it's so fast already i love it

Get the ATT version. The unlocked Euro version will not connect to the same 3G bands. As for 4G don't get your hopes up there is no real 4G yet. Until a standard is set any one can say it has 4g if it. 000001 MB over the Max 3g connection.
Well I took my chances and just bought the ATT version off a seller on eBay. We made the deal for $630US incl. shipping. I don't know what the phone sell for off contract but it's the cheapest one I could find that wasn't already open or used. He also sent in a request for an unlock code for it so I'm hoping we'll be able to get one.
I remember the horror when I couldn't get an unlock code for my HD7 and had to wait a week before the codes were available.
Anyway.. it's being sent by UPS so should have it by Weds next week Now I hope it's not a lemon or I'm screwed!!

My dead-end problem.
mine come from UK, and yes, the lady inside the phone almost never recognize my English Voice Pattern, even the simplest: IMDB.
It is funny when i am foreign, i was studying British English at home and now only Americans can understand me. LMAO.
I mean, my HD7 T-Mobile almost never have trouble in using the voice to open stuffs, but my UK Titan is a pain in the ass.
By the way, i would recommend double check everything because my turn-by-turn Navigation of Bing maps doesn't work at US for UK version. If you are really need Turn-by-Turn, i would recommend the AT&T version because it is designed for US Road, maybe Canada too. But we also have other alter maps like Nokia Maps is coming out, or navigon... blah.
If not, the Sim-Free Quad-band Unlocked Titan from Europe is also sweet. I can hit home anytime and use any sim without paying $30-$45 for an unlock code and worry about 3G Frequency since it is the world phone.

By the way, i would recommend double check everything because my turn-by-turn Navigation of Bing maps doesn't work at US for UK version. If you are really need Turn-by-Turn, i would recommend the AT&T version because it is designed for US Road, maybe Canada too. But we also have other alter maps like Nokia Maps is coming out, or navigon... blah.
If not, the Sim-Free Quad-band Unlocked Titan from Europe is also sweet. I can hit home anytime and use any sim without paying $30-$45 for an unlock code and worry about 3G Frequency since it is the world phone.

That is true. I have this problem and no solutions exists yet. "Display language" in the Settings has "English" with no US/UK selection. It is UK effectively. Bing Maps will therefore have no voice guidance, and speech accessibility (announcing caller name, etc.) don't work, and you need to have a British accent for it to understand you.
I guess we'll have to wait for an AT&T ROM to flash on our devices.
this is true! i just realized my bing maps doesn't work either, it shows my location and will tell me where something is in relation to it but it cannot give me directions, thank god for the turn by turn navigation app which i use frequently, bing maps cannot provide me directions, and it would be great if my voice to text would work as well, yes we will have to wait for some cooked roms to come our way,

my thing is and I don't know if any other us euro titan owners are experiencing this, but i have a great rate and unlimited data plan with at&t because my device is not recognized in their system, if I were to install and at&t rom in the future , would ma bell immediately see my titan and slap a capped data plan on my account?

Starting today, they will probably recognize your phone... lol
Doesn't matter which ROM it runs, they can see it as "HTC Titan" and apply any restrictions they wish.
From the ATT site on the Titan specs: *4G speeds delivered by HSPA+ with enhanced backhaul.
Also, ATT sells the Titan new for $549.99 without contract and free shipping.
See attachment
I was in a mall today with 2 outlets for the AT&T Titan: the Microsoft Store and an AT&T store.
I entered the IMEI for both shops' floor models into htcimeiunlock.com, and for both of them the site claimed to have the codes immediately available, for $25. I've had good luck with that site in the past so I believe that at least for the first batch of Titans the codes are readily available for $25 or so.
Contrast that with AT&T, who probably won't have or give the codes for months, if ever.

what codes are you referring to? the $25 app cards? everyone is going to get them, i don't see why at&t would take time on this, this is sanctioned by msft, all you have to do is go on the msft's own side enter your imei proof of purchase and voila you get a $25 app card mailed to you i believe
and also at&t is a great network! they 10x better coverage than tmobile, i've had horrible experiences with tmobile letting me down, you can have the bestest shiniest most advanced phone out there and but its a useless paperweight if your carrier lets you down
"Codes" == SIM unlock codes (thought that was obvious from my mention of "htcimeiunlock.com").
Good luck getting them from AT&T any time in the next few months, even for a phone purchased at unsubsidized price.
Not a big deal for some folks, but some of us like to travel abroad with our phones and use them with local SIM cards, which makes unlocking critical. Fortunately, there's a non-AT&T source for the codes for HTC devices... you're SOL if you want to travel with a Samsung Mango phone!

[Q] Cracked screen. about replacement LCD

Hello everyone.
First of all, sorry about my English because I'm not a native speaker.
I have a phone model - HTC One X+ Plus PM63100 for AT&T 64GB - with cracked screen.
I found out that my phone has SONY display version ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2164760 )
Wanted to replace digitizer with front panel and order it from here http://www.etradesupply.com/oem-htc...embly-with-front-housing-and-light-guide.html but person who answered my question about compatibility said that it is not compatible with my phone model.
However, there is a one customer review under that replacement part which says that "it turned out to be uncompatible with my HTC One X+ international version. I do not know why this is the case but it is what it is."
In wiki http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTC_One_X it seem international X+ and AT&T version are same size.
I'm very confused and desperate, searching more than 2 months and can't find which replacement part fits my phone.
Please advice what to do or purchase.
Also, are both X+ models - S728e?
Thank you beforehand.
cracked screen
I was in a similar situation some time back, when my Telus unlocked HOX+ 64 Gb dropped and the screen cracked.
I gave it to a local repair guy, he ordered a HOX screen first and then realised that HOX+ has a little different hardware (some screws were in different places). hence, HOX and HOX+ are slightly different builds. Also, the international HOX+ and AT&T/Telus HOX+ are also different I suppose. Firstly the they have red coloured capacitive buttons at the bottom (also there is no red ring around the camera at the back).
The part shown in your link seems to be the same one that I have, so i think it should be compatible.

Thank you for response.
I don't care about button colors, even logo. I just want to purchase match display. Could you please (if it is possible of course) ask your local repair guy what was the model he replaced for your phone? Even link will be very helpful for me.
Thanks againt
I've been using my phone since i quite badly cracked it last month. Touch screen is still working fine and i may not even get the screen fixed.
Only thing i'm worried about is if the device is less waterproof now i have large cracks in it....:/

hi thisaint,
i checked with my local guy, but sorry, he doesn't seem to have any clue regarding the model number or the actual source of the panel. most these repair guys here have a trader/distributor from whom they get all kinds of accessories required for repair and they hesitate to give out the details fearing loss of business.!

Dear friend,
thank you for response.
I'll be happy to be in Mumbai or even in USA to repair my phone but unfortunately I live in another country. )
I had a hope to see my phone repaired before this christmas but it seem I'll meet holidays without it
Solved
Hello everyone.
Finally I have found a replacement lcd screen digitizer frame assembly at ebay/com.
Seller assure me that his SHARP screen is interchangeable with my previous SONY screen and I risked and purchased his item for 65 USD.
(insert ebay com) /itm/LCD-Display-Touch-Screen-Digitizer-Frame-Front-Cover-For-HTC-ONE-X-Plus-S728E-/251348208725?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&var=&hash=item3a85854c55
I'm using it without any issues, however screen buttons are red , that's all difference with original.
