Built in storage - HTC One X

Ok I am thinkgin about getting this phone but I need to know two things. 1. Is it rootable? 2. How does the onboard storage work and has anyone had any issues with installing lots of games on it? I will probably still get it just because I dont like my s2 but just wanted some input thanks!!!!

Yes its rootable just look on youtube for some videos on how to do it. The onboard storage works normally and installing games is easy. I havent had any problems with it

[Q] not all apps on google play available for HTC one X

Sorry guys for asking this question might be noob or repeated,and I tried to searched already...
Firstly,I just got my HOX yesterday,and this is my first android phone,previously I was using asus transformer.
The question I want to ask here is why not all apps showing on google play website is available for HOX, I thought this problem is only happen to tablet but not phone.
yesterday, I tried to search 9mm,modern combat 3 and oregon trail:settler, these games are not there...is it a problem with the device compatibility or the ICS issue?and also I installed the real racing 2,it is not working...
please help guys...any solution or just have to wait?
Most Gameloft games don't work on the HOX at the moment they need to be updated.. The One X is very new we need to give dev's the time to update apps and games to properly work on the One X.

sometimes the app you're looking for isn't show at the play store app but you can find it in google's play store website! It happened to me lots of times
GRRRRR!
This is so annoying its halfway through June now and still NBA Jam, Virtual Tennis, Mass Effect, Men in Black, The Sims... ALL NOT WORKING!!!!
Anyone have any updates on this???
Tegra 3
Its mostly the games that you cant find really... and I believe its bcz of the Tegra 3 processor... those apps are not optimized for the Tegra 3 and its gpu so even if you get the .apk from somewhere else and install it, it still wont run....
Yeah, youd think they would be working on it. Annoying as I've bought some of those games on my old phone, ya don't expect it not to work on a better phone. They'd look great on the one x too

[?] ICS rom that works good with games?

As the title says, I'm looking for a ICS rom for our Desire which works good enough for games.
I have tried many of the ICS roms and on every rom there was a problem with almost every game.
Temple Run doesnt respond to my swipes correctly and it often automaticly turn left and dies.
Tap Tap Revenge 4 doesnt recognise the phone resolution and therefor the size of the game is incorrect, menu too big and the screen while playing is very small.
Angry Birds doesnt respond to my touch. It responds to regular buttons like the return button but when i touch the screen nothing happens.
I want to have a ICS rom that works with atleast these 3 games cuz they are my favorite. If there is a ICS rom that works with one of these games then please tell me so that I can check it up.
I want to have a ICS rom cuz ive seen the big smoothness in these roms and in the games and it beats the hell out of every other rom that I have encountered
Thank you in Advance

I'm using COS ICS rom, and I've suffered your same problems with Angry Birds many times (don't know about the other games, as I don't have them).
All the times, the problems went away if I started the game just after rebooting. The problems seem to be related to something I used before playing, or perhaps with degradation after some hours of use...
Try it...

Unfortunately, some of these apps cannot be used until the developers update the app.
Temple Run- It's a problem with the touchscreen and it does not really run well with ICS. Some official ICS for certain phones (such as Xperia S) has the same problem
Tap Tap- It is not compatible with Android 3.0 and above. You have to wait for an update from Tapulous. However, seeing that the app has not been updated for more than 6 months already, it's likely that they abandoned it for tap tap 5.
Angry Birds- I can actually play it on Sanvold ICS perfectly, albeit with slight lags. So I don't know why it doesn't respond to your touches.
Hope this helps.

I have seen today that temple run has gotten a update that according to the logs fixed many problems with ics. Maybe it fixed the swipe bug?
I didnt know a tap tap 5 is coming. Is it coming to android too? Im very addicted to tap tap and i play it alot ever since the tiesto week. One of the song that came in tiesto week was my favorite and many more good songs have come so i play it now more than ever
And ill try sandvolts rom and will cross my fingers hoping that all my other games work as well as angry birds should work.
Hope also the update that has come has fixed the swipe/autodeath bug.
Edit: Aw, sandvolts ics beta doesnt work with usb tether!
I really need usb tether cuz without it i cant have internet on my pc.
I'm using Sandvold's ICS Beta Rom 0.10.1. Seems okay for games so far. And some games you've got no choice but to wait for the developer to sort out the bugs the game has with ICS.
sandvolds ics beta 0.10 is best. i have played even mass effect without any lags or freezes.

Temple run update do fix the swipe bugs. However, its still rather unresponsive sometimes. However I'm sure it would be fixed in the near future.
According to Tapulous, they are working on Tap Tap 5, hence they haven't be updating Tap Tap 4, I don't know if it will come to android or not though. They only assured iOS. Although hopefully it will come to Android, I missed playing it ever since I switched to ICS.
And for sandvold ICS, although usb tether don't work yet, why not just use personal hotspot? It does the same as usb tether.

Confirming that the following games work fine with Nikez Lente 1.0.1a5 ICS ROM:
-Temple Run
-Angry Birds
-Basketball Shoot
-Cut the rope
-Fruit Ninja
There is a known bug that for some cases there is no sound in Temple Run, dev is working on it.
BCM von dk_zero-cool. I'm running RC3.6U0 it has the same new adreno-libs as sandvolds port and at least angrybirds and templerun a working very well, touchpad is working, too. it really sad that the phone hasn't a real multitouchsensor.
Oh very nice, i dont care so much about the sound just want the game to work. Thanks aloot for tge info. I will definitly try it out.

[Q] Games exit when phone left idle (screenoff+lockscreen)

Hello everyone,
I been using my One X for exactly 1 week, coming over after 2 solid years with a modded Desire.
So far, I cant seem to solve this 1 problem which never plagued my Desire (with its lowly 570mb ram).
Problem:
When I run a game (tried on Princess Punt, Angry Birds space) and i look away for a minute, screen turns off as its normal.
Now on my old desire, when I unlocked phone I got right back into the game. With One X, I am sent to desktop after a brief black screen. I select the game from recent apps, and it starts from title screen? What is going on?
I think same happens to internet aswell but it loads the page up again and most cases where i was reading, so no big deal.
Anyone knows how do I fix this?
Background info:
International One X running official 1.29.4x1.xx
Bootloader unlocked and rooted
Stock rom, no modifications
almost no extra running apps/services. usually 280-400mb free ram.
Search threads about the one X multitasking. The apps are killed more aggressively as needed...
I believe there is a fix for this if you have root

HTC One X crash - camera usage

Hi All,
Loving my One X and finally understanding why Android works! After having applied various tweaks that I read about on the forums herr, there is just one thing that is now giving me problems...
When I'm taking a photo, as soon it snaps, the phone shuts down and I have to restart. Some facts below:
1. This does not happen always, actually I believe this usually happens when the battery is below 30-35% but works without issues after having restarted the phone.
2. No, I didn't root my phone and am using the stock Rom and yes, I already did a wipe...
3. This is not restricted to the default camera app, happened while using paper camera as well as camera zoom fx...
4. Whenever this happens, after I've restarted the phone, the snap that I took ends up creating a corrupted image file (warning icon) in the gallery. Could be an.I/o issue?
5. I don't have too many apps installed and when I do use an app/game I make sure to close it completely...
Anyone else facing this issue? Thoughts?
I love the One X so far but if app crashes means complete shut down of the entire phone most of the time, I may have to reconsider my purchase as I can't risk that happening when I'm working or such...
I have to admit that I have never been an android fan... My 2 year old Mozart started having issues after I dropped it for the zillionth time (man that device can survive some harsh usage) and though I will move back to windows phone again, getting one now didn't make sense as wp8 won't be supported by it. But the more I use the One X, I love it... I'll be going for windows phone no matter what, but am seriously considering keeping this with me if it holds true to its potential the next few weeks....
So help!!!!!!!!!
Best regards.

I'm already on the latest, I believe, firmware (v1.29.707.11) and thus that wouldn't be it...
Have you tried using a different launcher? Just get the free apex launcher, set it as default, then see if you have the same problem. If it fixes the issue then I'm afraid a factory reset is the order of the day, this will reset sense 4 back to original, then reinstall each app one at a time (games can all go on at once, because it won't be any game causing the issue).
You could use backup pro to backup all your contents etc first.

Haven't tried a different launcher yet... I kinda like Sense. But will see how it goes.
Already did a hard reset to see if that would help and it didn't (got everything syncing with exchange so don't really have to worry about creating backups of contacts, etc.) but will try again if using Apex launcher makes it go away.
One thing that I just remembered... when I did the last hard reset, after i got all my accounts, etc. configured, the phone restarted and continued to restart after startup when i unlocked and got to Sense. After the fourth restart, it stopped... So maybe it is something to do with Sense!?
Thanks!
Try to install the RUU

did you find a solution to your problem?
was it the battery or mainboad?
This is a strange one !! Welcome to Android
Using Apex etc won't make ANY difference for various reasons. 1 - It will still be using the Sense framework, so if it is Sense you'll get the same issue. 2 - The different launcher runs ontop of Sense, so its basically ANOTHER VM within Android.
I agree with someones statement above, if you've already factory reset, try and use the RUU.
If that doesn't work, I'm inclined to say its a hardware issue.
you say it's not the stock camera app but other apps like paper camera? then if stock camera app is working fine just use it, if other apps restarting the phone...because it could be that the apps will do that....or just update your whole phone to really latest base ...it's 3.14....just go in settings- about- then update or so ...if it wont work try to search a ruu for your cid/ or for the base you have like 1.29.707.11 ....therefore you need a RUU which is for x.xx.707.xx base...
Old thread ^^
Anyways... the problem is probably hardware, sounds like the battery doesnt have enough juice to keep the phone working even tho it says it has. Im afraid you will have to use your warranty
i have a One X on O2 in the uk. not unlocked or anything, its running OTA jellybean
have had the phone since 02 first had it available
my phone is also crashing with the camera function. very annoying.
(stock camera app)
i also get corrupted images
it happens randomly

[Q] HTC ONE X revert Back from horrible JB 4.1.1 NOT ROOTED

Hi ,
Recently updated to JB 4.1.1 from ICS and have found that there is no longer the USB setting select as hard disk so my smart TV will not detect it as an external hard drive anymore.
This mass storage feature was one of the main reasons I went to android and the jerks have taken the option away.
Is there any work around?
any way to get my TV to detect the phone?
or any way to revert back to ICS without rooting?
This is driving me insane.
Spoke to HTC today and they just told me to reset and it should be plug and play. RUBBISH!!!!
Why remove functionality. If I wanted to stay with the similar setup to Iphone , I would have stck with Iphone.
If it needs to be rooted , How? I am very new to this.
Any help would be appreciated.
I'm fairly sure that the JB 4.1 Sense ROM should still have mass USB storage capabilities, but I cannot say for certain since I haven't used it all that much. I just think it is a bit odd that they have deliberately taken it away like you mentioned.
However, I was using CM10 which is a custom ROM based on 4.1 JB and I was able to use USB mass storage with no issues. So assuming your phone isn't some hardware fault, it shouldn't be too hard to get back mass storage by rooting your phone and flashing a suitable custom ROM.
Odp: [Q] HTC ONE X revert Back from horrible JB 4.1.1 NOT ROOTED
No, 4.1 hasn't mass drive functionalities. Only this creepy MTP. It's a 'feature' of Google system in version 4, HTC had nothing done here.

You should probably start your own thread for your own issue.
@OP: Yeah it turns out that Sense doesn't have mass storage. If you do want it, you can always root your phone and flash a custom ROM.
Root your phone, flash clockwork mod recovery and use the mass storage option functionality in recovery. That's the temporary work around for me.. I feel you man.

ViperX rom is custom jb sense rom that can mount usb mass storage. But that would require you to break the warranty by unlocking the bootloader.
Other than that there is no way to downgrade without s-off.

MTP connection was introduces with JB. Therefore no mass storage anymore in HOX. But in SGS3 there is an option to select connection type. I don't understand why HTC dint give that option for users as most devices support USB mass storage does not support MTP
In all custom recoveries there is an option called "mount usb storage",
Use it.
