Have no idea where to post this thread as there is no forum for this device... but now with the easy root tools and as HTC has released the source code, any ideas on if/when we will see a custom rom or two? A CM perhaps?
Thanks!
also curious about this.
would like to see this too

Root and Rom HTC EVO Design 4G
Hello
I rooted the HTC EVO Design 4G as per this description:
http://androidforums.com/evo-design...tc-evo-design-4g-all-carriers-root-guide.html
The mentioned ROM xFuZiionZz 4 3 2 is fast but has issues with GSM calls on my Device as I'm traveling international I need this capability.
So I still use the original Sprint ROM. But with disabling all not needed apps (because of root) it runs now much faster than before.

JB rom here if you're interested. I got this phone and was stoked to see this after months of running stock. Almost a daily driver for me

Hi,
So I have been a member of this forum since I had my first HTC phone (the Inspire). Recently (maybe a year or so ago?) I got my HTC One X+ (AT&T) and I was looking forward to custom ROMs since there were numerous problems with them on my Inspire (look at my past posts). I am running Elegancia 5.2.0 which is still based on the 4.1.1 Jellybean. I want to move to a custom ROM with a 4.2.2 base, but the only things I find are international versions of the ROMs. Have developers completely just forgotten the AT&T/ Telus versions of the phone? Why is no one developing ROMs for both versions of the phone anymore? Is there anyone that is working on an updated ROM for the AT&T/ Telus version? I understand that developers are dedicating their time to produce these ROMs, but why has the other version of the phone just become completely forgotten?
Sorry for the rant, but I had to get this off since it has gotten agonizing not being able to run the newest Android OS with a custom ROM since no one produces anything else except international versions. Thanks for reading.

If on anyone blame it on AT&T. They have not released to us the 4.2.2 update. Devs are always with us and still developing amazing pieces of work... you just have to read to see.

All the problems can pretty much be blamed on the carriers almost exclusively. There are devs who would make a updated rom if they had the source. As for porting international ROMs over, as was common practice for the Inspire 4G and Desire HD, there are apparently hardware issues that come up that devs either can't fix, or just don't want to spend unneeded time trying to get working. (Like LTE)
In short, yell at ATT and/or Google and the manufactures for allowing carriers to hold up updates to fill it with crapware.

Thanks for explaining it to me guys. It just is annoying me to death.
i have also bought a htc one x+ instead htc one x international version (even though both were of same price).. didnt see the development ratio 1st and now i m regretting my purchase...
nothing much to test/play arround only elegancia and venom XL :crying:
Yeah, from what I understand it's got a lot to do with the hardware. Seems very few phones are using the tegras, etc. and as a result very few devs end up with the device...basically, it's just much easier to develop for the more standardized hardware so those are the devices the devs gravitate to. Add on to that very small number of devs that there's no s-off, no 4.2.2 update, etc. and you have your reason.
I was also hoping to have more to play around with on this phone, but unfortunately that seems highly unlikely. As time goes on we'll probably see less development and fewer devs rather than the other way around.

Ive been looking through the rom section of this forum, and every single rom i see either doesn't specify or says international version of my phone, its really frustrating, i see a single thread tagged that it supports at&t, and that isn't released yet?
Am i missing something here or are there really just no roms for my device?
Details of my device if this helps at all:
HTC One X+ from AT&T
Android 4.1.1
Sence 4+
Kernel version
"3.1.10-g262c6aa

You must not have checked here...

There are a couple of ROMS that I would consider to be realistic daily drivers for the One X+. Unfortunately S-off was never achieved for the phone, so there was never much development done for the AT&T version. The people who worked on it did a great job, but the major builds (like Android Revolution) focused on the international model which had a different underlying structure or something which allowed them to get S-off.
Regardless, the two I would suggest checking out are:

I currenty have a VZW S4, but it's locked down tight... and im kind of sick of samsung siding with the carrier on this. so i was thinking of getting the onemax through edge.
Is it locked as tight as the s4? that is can you flash AOSP roms after getting the latest update?
And how is development, i might be a bit lost because of a lack of carrier specific subforum, but i dont see many VZW roms...
Development is practically non existent. However viper team is about to drop the first custom rom soon.
We have root.. Unlocked bootloader and S-off though.
Sense is flawless compared to the touchwiz.

Search.
The phone is fully unlocked as in bootloader unlocked (all variants) s-off (all variants) root and recovery (all variants) it's not that the developer support is non-existent it's the fact and this is in regards to AOSP that HTC hasn't released the source code yet for the kernel.. Once source is uploaded all AOSP teams and that will be Cyanogen first as always since all teams pull from CM will AOSP builds finally kick off... It's just a waiting game now. All the hard work getting to AOSP is done thanks to beaups!!! But yeah not to be that guy though since you are coming from the S4 and should know how XDA and all forums work read a bit. A post or 2 down from you was basically the same question lol.. If you would have checked Origiginal Android Development and Android Development you would have seen what is available thus far.... But to be honest though my man, this phone is sick... It's everything the OG One is but bigger for the phablet freaks like myself!!!!!!! Trust in the community and especially Flyhalf AOSP will come!

Given the hardware between the One and the MAX are almost identical it is expected to be easy for dev's to port the code for the MAX from the one.
me and @deagleone actually tried flashing the One's kernel and the phone boots, the only thing that was broken was the WiFi which is a because of the different hardware.
The One was the phones which received a lot of dev support and has variety of custom rom's from AOSP to Sense
Wait hold up.... You were able to boot a HTC One kernel? What kernel? This is interesting...

Yes, ElementalX @flar2's kernel for the HTC One. I did flash it and it booted up. I was not able to use the kernel features for example S2W, however @deagleone reported that S2W works with his ROM.
Once HTC makes the kernel sources available, i think development should pickup easily.
HI all,
I owned multiple windows/android devices....like htc hd2 / sony eression eperia x 10, htc sensation, samsung note, htc onex, sony experia s, htc one, and finally HTC ONE MAX.
I was in every form ,at least finding a store for all htc RUUs /OTA , or official roms /firmwares for sony and samung.
and always getting help regarding anything i ever needed, except for HTC one max.
There is no clear RUU /OTA store. and personally , I didn't find even the shipped RUU for my device. the international version.
i refresh this forum so often everyday, and all i see , is the same outdated threads .
is it so hard to find ruus for the HTC one max? why it is so difficult?
believe me, i respect you all...
but it is really frustrating to own such great device, and all you can get is minimalistic/outdated mods... couple of custom roms, not more than 5 or 6

ring htc and ask them why we don't see ruu. because it's like getting blood from a stone lol.
because of OTA on the device itself they dont see the need to release public restore ruu. as htc practically never fail updates.
i guess that end of day, they know people **** they're devices trying to hack em. so htc can profit by only them restoring it and trying to prove that tampering caused the fault!
Sorry but at this time I don't believe one has been releashed only ruu is the verizon and sprint ruu.

The problem really goes down to the fact that this device is so amazing yet does not have a good level adaptation and marketing.
Moving from HTC One to a MAX i could understand your frustration, one of the BIG reason why the dev activity was slow here were the unavailability of kernel sources and only recently it was available. you would have seen couple of high quality devs working active here to get AOSP out for the device.
on the context of old threads, we are very close to the 4.4.2 update release which kind of makes the devs wait for the update so that they could work on them instead of 4.3.
It is true that the international MAX does not have an RUU available in public, i don't know much on public distribution of RUU's by HTC. I thought RUU's were only for the service centers to restore the phone.
For the international MAX, there has been only one OTA from the stock shipped ROM. The Stock ROM was 1.19.xxx.x and the OTA upgraded it to 1.54.xxx.x which was only minor, but i do appreciate having an repository and that is the reason why i posted a stock ROM.
As for the ROM's, personally i am happy having stock,hanks to Xposed! Viper has quite an awesome collection of tweaks on the ROM.
If you are interested in mod's you could try the mod's from original HTC One forum and afaik it should work.

Other than this whiny thread exactly how much work have you put in to contributing to this forum so it will have more content?!?!
Wellll...you could trying learning to do it yourself rather than expecting things to be done here for you....The device has limited development/developers... And soon probably will have even less with the new flagship releasing this month....Good luck in your search for more "updated things".

I love my HTC One MAX... And with Venom ROM... Even better! I had the HTC DNA with a lot of ROM choices.. and still used The Venom ROM. So I don't really need 50 ROMs that are basically Vanilla Android variants.
Current Device : HTC One MAX / Retired HTC Devices: DNA, Rezound, Thunderbolt, Incredible, Eris
I love when people always say lack of development and want 50 copies of the same ROM... Then complain they all look the same. Rule 1 if you aren't going to be happy running the phone completely stock then don't buy it. You don't get a check from work expecting extra mystery money..... Lazy people these days...
