HTC One X Singapore product launch

Hi all, been to the product launch for HTC one series in Singapore this morning. Sad to say, they will not be bringing in the One S, so only One X and One V are available for all 3 major telcos.
Hands on the One X really have the premium feel like what other forumers described. The country sales manager actually threw or drop his phone several times on stage to prove the durability. As much as it is scratch proof, it is not scratch resistant. You do may get scratch marks if both the angle and force is right. The curve edge of the gorilla glass at the side do resembles the Nokia lumia to answer the questions for some.
I am really impressed by the speed of the camera and the OS. Tried the picture taking while taking videos. The picture quality I would say may not be ideal to some. Focus can be poor due to low light.
Fortunately, they are giving us S$100 off for the phone in a limited period. And if we order in the next few days, they are giving the DLNA link for free! Lucky I didn't miss that out!!
I believe I have missed out several points but do let me know if you want to find out more.

Yes you were able to play with it. Besides that, I happen to hear the country manager answering some questions and he did mentioned that in any case your phone hangs, press both the volume and power button and it should restart the phone.

HTC Media Link HD [Phones4u / DAP Free Gift]

Hi,
I'm eagerly awaiting delivery of my Media Link HD - but not heard a word out of P4U yet....has anyone else heard anything?
Danny

There being shipped 24th April
Sent from my LT26i using XDA

I was wondering, does this work with any tv? Since some tv's have limited codec's (like my sony HX923) this could be a dealbreaker for me.

As far as I know it's simple HDMI connection, so works with any HDMI TV.

I was told up to 28 days after the phone was delivered at release

Sent from my HTC One X using XDA

Yeah same here mate, havent heard from them buggers. They first said that within 28 days and i emailed them last week about this and they said I'll get AFTER 28 days of the delivery. I've never had a good experience with them.

Spoke to them Saturday and they said all orders even if not a pre order would get it within 28 days from.contract start date. I would imagine we will see them a week or two after release which I'm led to believe is the 24th April.

What sort of backwards company says that!? Saying AFTER 28 days could mean anything u can get it on the 29th day or 100th day
I would feel like a dumbass if I ever had to tell a customer that

From what I understand it is pretty immediately after 28 days as you have to stay connected to the network and pay the first months bill, although time will tell

still waiting here to hear about medialink. ive phone and i all i got was the 28days BS. also waiting for £50 refund and quidco from them aswell

Hi, anyone know when this media link is getting released?
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium

well phone was released 5th April so 28 days isn't up yet,as for quidco it usually takes a number of weeks for the money to show doesn't it?

Is the media link in stock anywhere yet to buy? Cheers

It has been delayed. The exact release date is currently unknown, but it could be towards the end of May. Annoying as I am really excited to see one of these in action.

Just received mine today, pretty nifty.
Comes with a HDMI cable and another charger. The cable for HD Media Link is at least double the length of the one supplied with the phone.
And it's all in black.

Got mine today too. Just picked up from post office.

[Q] Regarding HT/SH26 batch HOX

Hey members,
Greetings to ALL!!!!!!!
Has anyone got HOX from the latest batch, i.e HT26 or SH26....?
If so kindly reply me with the details of it, and if in case anyone facing issues
with the latest batch HOX, please mention that also.
It would be so helpful for me to get an issue free HOX...I hope so.

I hade 3 from ht261.
1- yellow spot.
2- Dead pixel.
3- dust under the screen.

Got a SH26RW today in exchange for my screen-rippled SH24MW. Was delivered a few minutes ago, not tested yet. I'll keep ya up to date...
:fingers-crossed:

I would say no difference to the previous batches. We have at work few different 23 batches xw, yw or something etc. And all have different issues (and some in common). I am not convinced by the 26 being perfect.
The build quality seems to be the same. Except its shipped with the latest .11 fw, but thats about it.
George down has it right.
I would say its either not depending on the batches. Or wait more

Well, just a little screen ripple in the right upper corner when pushing harder so nothing out of the ordinary. Sometimes the WiFi signal icon drops, but neither can I restore it by pushing the case nor do I notice any lags.. so not sure if it's the WiFi issue or some graphic bug..
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
Edit:
The other one had that same WiFi icon issue btw...

Update:
Well screen ripple's pretty bad at both sides' very outer edges of the screen, in some positions effect reaches into the middle. Also there's some strangle loose, jiggle noise when pushing the back/home/recent button that's beyond normal vibration, but only when feedback is enabled (settings -> sounds -> vibrate feedback).
Btw got mine from amazon.de, and they offered me to return the first phone immediatly when I told them 'bout my screen ripple and either sent me a new batch One X.

I give up on the one x , it's lottery to get a good one , i thought most problems would be fixed with sh/ht26 :crying:

I almost feel the same right now... But on the other hand HTC promised us to deliver top quality handsets, I think I will take the challenge and bug them 'till I get a good One. :banghead:
Dunno what happened to their production sites, but seriously this HOX disaster is a shame for HTC...
My previous Desire HD I bought last September was so state-of-the-art although it wasn't the latest model, sad I sold it...

Which serial do you have?

I have an SH264 white and working perfectly.

My serial is HT24 but I was hoping to get a later one. I was assuming it would be issue free but I was wrong.

Branded orange UK HOX 2.17 update.

Hi all, first post.
I'm not sure if its just me or is there no information available for this topic on xda or the web? Other networks yes but orange, no.
If anyone can shed some light on the proposed date for this I'd be very grateful.
Ps I did search xda and came up with a thread discussing the Nokia lumia.....?
Cheers.

Three UK did this to us on the 1.29 update, they ended up being 3 months late for the 1.29 update, but paid us back with the 2.17 instead. Hope your situation doesn't go sour like ours did!

Funnily they haven't replied to my 2nd tweet about that not surprising me with both orange & t-mob the 2 not to have released it and both being the 2 behind EE and that it looks like custom is the best option.

Sent from my Transformer TF101 using xda premium

I am really tempted to upgrade, however I keep telling myself that if I just let my 2 year contract expire, the phones that will be out in that time will be a lot better then the one.
Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk 2

I was really very tempted to get HOX when it got announced last year which I of course bought. Somehow I don't feel that about ONE. I guess that's because I am completely happy with my HOX, and prefer the way it looks comparing to the one. Not planning to upgrade anytime soon and the reason is not that I can't afford

Not seen it myself but I'll never get a phone with edge to edge screen again like my broken screen hox that's for sure.

There is a developer model available, ships SIM free with bootloader unlocked, I'm not 100% sure that it will be s-off but it does say fully unlocked, no mention about warranty but it seems there trying hard to give the community they want.

I would have seriously considered it, but i feel it is going to be let down badly by the camera.
Guess i will wait & see what the inevitable refresh of the design will be. (who said One+):laugh:

No. I have the hox.
No more HTC unless they remove their crappy implementation of s-off and locking bootloaders.
The only way I'll ever go back to HTC is if they make another nexus device. Barring that....I'll stay with Samsung (I have an s3 as well, as you can see by my tapatalk sig

tempted about the One, im not a big fan of sense 5 but the phone definately looks slick... and we 'should' get s-off since it's qualcomm and not tegra.

I think that the s4 has more to offer. But my pick would be the nexus 5

apart from the battery and the camera i dont think the s4 has got that much more.. good looking device but i think the alluminium unibody of the One is nicer. and probably most of the people here prefers sense over touchwiz. indeed two top specs phones!

definitely tempted with One. Also signed up for the supposely $100 rebate from HTC. Who knows...I might buy the One to get the rebate and sell it hopefully at a higher price. :fingers-crossed:...unless I decide to keep it
