Seriously, that would have taken like 3 seconds to find out on google. Every single article written about the thing states that it isn't!

LMFAO
Nope it isn't, that the big downside off the HTC One X and HTC One S, you don't just buy anymore a few cheap spare batteries from ebay.
No now you will need external batteries which cost more normally and I guess the cheap ones are worst then cheap spare batteries.
This should only be a problem if you play a lot of games or watch movies or shows with your device and you can't carry an extra battery. The only time I have removed my battery with my DHD is when I have to force restart it and I have used it for 1.5 years.

Hahaha! I also had to do it when it fell into water
Still working though!
I had to remove it a few times because my virtuous Rom would occasionally crash and the reboot would loop...

I'm an AT&T US One X owner and am wondering if the MediaLink is worth a purchase. I'm seeing some mixed results in the other thread but this is definitely a big part of owning an HTC One phone.

only one that could really answer that is you, i mean having it for just having it or get some real use out of it in which case there are better, cheaper options out there.

want to put your content on a bigger screen? watch movies on a bigger screen? show off your apps and features on a big screen? If your answer is yes to one or all of these then it is worth it. otherwise don't bother
Only reason I'm asking is because some people reported that its buggy and doesn't work 100% correctly.

Actually, it's not much of a feature of the One Range, and I couldn't justify paying over £20 for it let alone £70, I just use my HDMI cable and adapter
HTC Media Link HD - First Look
Love it .
I've just ordered the eu version from amazon UK for £54 which I think is a fairer price. The earlier model is only £10 cheaper. £70 was way over the top for this device when you consider how much you have already spent on the device

I don't know if you've read my review, but I find it useful. I've actually found myself streaming music to my av center through my tv when my pc is off. Very easy and like other users have said, the rest of your media on a big screen is fantastic and easy and wireless! £54 is a great price too I think it's definitely worth that much.
Personally i would buy a device that works with DLNA for any device, so not necessarily the HTC MediaLink. If you ever switch from HTC to Samsung for example, you still be able to use it. It's kinda of a waste of money if it becomes useless when you switch brands. MHL adapter would also be a nice choice.
it seems like a good thing to have at home to show off to your friends, but beyond that i think that the hdmi and adapter option is cheaper also less prone to lag. Will tell more once it finally launches here and i get an opportunity to use it
Purchased a HTC DGH 100(good old media link) last week off ebay after checking if its compatible with HTC one X and was under the impression that it is compatible but plays media in a lower resolution.
Received it today and tried pairing it with my Htc one X (i was so excited that I literally wanted to jump) and after trying for nearly an hour, I gave up and called up HTC customer service.
Spoke to a nice lady(sarcasm) over the phone who initially said to me "We are sorry sir, but we do not provide troubleshooting support for HTC Media Link". After a few mins of a heated argument regarding how crappy their customer service is, I finally got to speak to speak to her manager who was very nice(sarcasm again) and told me that htc media link is not compatible with htc one x and after showing them this link
http://www.htcaccessories.com.au/DG_H100.aspx
where "under category and cables" it mentioned htc one x, they agreed that there was a mistake on their website. I have been advised by HTC that they will try getting back to me with a resolution and advised me "we are not promising you anything" like they are warning me.
Will update the post soon with their resolution or any updates on this but just wanted to tell every one pathetic the HTC customer service is.
Crap, and they still havn't fixed the site
their customer service is really bad
i wudnt be surprised if they dont get back to me or fix up their website given how bad they were on the phone.
That's is terrible, HTC should really pull thier fingers out of their backsides and get the accessory released, I've had the dock, media link on order from amazon for 6 weeks now and they have failed to supply them.
I think you have grounds for a refund as it dosent work as advertised, have you contacted the seller?.
Also if it is DLNA can you not try one of the DLNA streaming apps from the marketplace?

I have contacted the seller but can't blame him as he asked me to check with HTC regarding the compatibility before I buy it. I asked if HTC could do anything to fix it or replace it with media link hd, but they said that they won't and after threatening them about taking this on fb,Twitter etc.. they said they will look into it. Lol, funny how I never use fb/Twitter unless I have a complain against some organization

I thought they advertised it originally to allow all hdmi TVs to have DLNA added so you could stream from computers etc - I originally looked at it but got a bluray player instead ( cheaper at the time).
Imediashare lite should find it on your network. Keep us posted

The problem with imediashare is that my tv doesn't have DLNA n the so called media link has a closed software/hardware that doesn't lt the one x connect to media link using any other hardware. They better come up with a resolution or I am going the galaxy way

Your not the first and won't be the last, I'm also thinking of changing, unless htc get s-off and actually release updates to the UK I'm out probo for good. So near yet so far.... The older medialink should be compatible end of there is no excuse for it to be incompatible with future models. Because of this thread I think I will be cancelling my media link as it won't be compatible with future models.

It really is a shame considering I spent $780 on my new phone and media link only to be told that I have to sort things out myself. Oh and I haven't even started talking about screen flickering which hasn't gone away even after swapping the handset.

Update 15 may 2012
HTC calls me and tells me that media link is compatible and when I ask them to help me fix it, they give up and request for more time to come up with a resolution.
On a sidenote, they are yet to fix up their mistake on the website and worse, they have added a few more phones to the list(like sensation,explorer etc) that I think may not be compatible.
Good going HTC(pun intended)!

Update 15 may 2012
Got a call back again and was asked to update the firmware which I did already. I was then asked to give out the imei of my handset to which I denied and then I was told to provide them with the software/firmware version of one x. After telling them that I have one device with 1.29 and the other with 1.26, they came up with a crappy excuse that it only works with 1.28!!!I then told them that it was ridiculous and they had no idea as to what they were talking and were coming up with crappy excuses. They then advised me that they can only help if I gave them the imei number and when I requested them to put that line in writing and email me so that I could use it for legal purposes I was advised that they will call me tomorrow to help me fix the problem.
Luckily Australian laws are consumer friendly and if not resolved in a few days, I am knocking the doors of the consumer affairs.

Getting HTC One X working with Media Link
If you upgrade the firmware on the Media Link, this should work.
Steps:
1. Download the HTC Media Link ROM Update for HTC Desire HD (1.11.0.0)
(You have to search for this, as I don't have the right to post links in the forums yet)
2. Hold the power button on the Media Link and then plug it into your PC using the included USB cable. After 2-3 seconds, it should start flashing orange and green.
3. Open the Media Link ROM Update executable file.
4. Follow the instructions on the screen until the Media Link has been updated to ROM version 1.11.0.0
5. Plug in Media Link to TV and use as normal.
Has anyone done anything cool with NFC tags yet, I've bought some off eBay and i'm looking for inspiration
use one to send out texts to companies telling them they are entitled to PPI and accident claim insurance.

That's the only useful thing I've done with NFC too.
Here are some general things you might like to do:
Beside bed to configure powersave options
Beside pc to configure sync and other transfer software
what else is possible ?

I got one to use when i enter my house. Turns mobile data off, wifi on, waits 5 seconds, and then turns on my computer with wake on lan. Its a Tasker task setup with NFC task launcher.
I also have a tag on my car dock and I'm using NFC Task Launcher. I have a switch tag for it so when I place it in the dock it turns WiFi off, turns bluetooth on, turns media volume up all the way, turns auto brightness off and turns brightness all the way up. I take it out and it does the opposite of all that. Love it.

I have a tip for all you NFC lovers.
If you do not have new NFC Tags you can useNFC ReTag on "old" or already used one's you can't alter.
Most people already have NFC tags around and don't even know it. Your best bet for NFC tags is in ID cards, Passport, driving license, door Key cards, public transport cards. Just try some.
Maybe some soda our beer company handed some out that have been in a drawer or closet. Because once you've seen your phone going to there website, well what else can you do with these?
With NFC Retag you can now scan you're "newly" found, already programmed for something else, NFC tags and let them do a totally other thing than they were intended to do. NFC ReTag can be set to do a hole number of things. It's even good for the environment. Reuse old tags.

Mine arrived the other day. They work well. BUT... they only have 46 bytes capacity. Only enough space for maybe 2x toggles and 1x app launch. ANything more complicated is too big.
The tags look good, but I regret getting them honestly. I wish I bought some 1K byte tags instead

If you only plan to use them to say toggle WiFi, toggle data and launch one app. All in one tap, then that will be fine.
But it wouldn't let me togge my WiFi, data, volume, launch email and turn on my computer lol

Search for terms Mifare and MifareC, second is enough for most simple tasks... Ordinary Mifare is to small, you're right.

Hi, sorry but my english is not so good than yours
What do you mean exactly ?
I am buying only HTC smartphones since HTC Touch Cruise - because I don't like bull**** stuff..
That particular widget has been presented thru I think past 5 models, and I indeed used it..
Now I got to find some decent but battery friendly replacement for it..

OK Sir, TK
Download the original app at the below link. I have been using this since my Droid Incredible days.
https://www.dropbox.com/s/g6ka9gpwjn8zt2t/Finance.apk?dl=0
My name is Harold and I'm a flashaholic.....
Hi Harold, thank you. However it is not the HTC Finance we're looking for..
See the attached screenshot how it looked..
Hi and TK hgoldner
but as said by jauhien this is not the apk we are looking for.
TK for trying help us
Why don't you use google now ? It's battery saving too
Pb is that there is no notification on Google now. Other things like weather or traffic are working. That s why i m looking for this apk. I found it but only for old One version. Doesn t work on m9.
