I've owned the Desire, Desire S and Incredible S, all with 1ghz Snapdragon processors but in my opinion the One V feels more sluggish than then all, I think it might be ICS and Sense 4.0 causing it. Am I imagining this?
Despite having the same CPU, the One V has significantly less RAM than the Desire S and Incredible S (512 vs 768), so that alone may explain it feeling slower. Spec-wise, the One V is superior to the original Desire.
It is cause of the self restarter apps....which eat up ur ram..383 ram is more than enough

My HTC One V was slowest phone which I ever used. After using Nexus One and Omnia W this felt like a truck moving slow. I then upgraded to MIUI 2.8.10 and been happier since them Couple of issues here and there but phone is much better than before.

I agree, Its the first smart phone that I've owned that I only use as a last resort, meaning I now use the laptop to post here, twitter, facebook etc etc, I only use the phone if out and about and have no other option as its just to frustrating to use. I only paid £120 for it so can't complain really but even my ZTE Blade / Orange San Francisco was quicker and if I remember correctly it only had something like a 600Mhz processor, Sense 4.0 has killed this phone

My phone was laggy too when I still on 1.58.707.4 now my phone is super smooth than ever after its updated to 2.09.707.1. Alternatively you can use 3rd party launcher and I recommend Apex launcher

im on 2.08.401.2 and i don't have lagg at all, didnt try the other software versions since i updated to this version as soon as i booted the phone for the first time.
I'm using 2.09.707.1 and no noticeable lags however when i restart the phone, it takes time to respond properly. Proly because of the number of apps I installed.

I'm with Koodo. Just came from older P500 phone, Koodo is not much full of crapware but yes, could feel a little laggy anyway, of course the one V is entry-level after all. First thing I did was to unlock the phine then get the titaniun kernel and put kax frequency in overclock - myself, 1.4 ghz is enough for my needs. So, stock rom with better kernel made a difference. Thn I changed roms, personally I like modaco, closest to ICS with everything working right.
All if this to say that if you found your way to XDA, tinker with your phone ! The one V has good potential. That is the joy of Android and then there are some pretty obvious steps to get it to run faster and better.

its really laggy but with the new updates it seems kinda fast...i dont know maybe its just me....
first of all, thank you all for your daily hard work on the DZ. I check it every day and it is wonderful what you do. I love my DZ and will stick with it for a longer time. :victory:
but sry guys, if I look at my perfectly working MIUI 2.3.7 and all this threads reg. ICS "tries" there is not one release without problems. I try every release but nothing is like the old OSs. I need it working perfectly for a professional daily use.
Slowly I think the DZ is so old that there is no chance of an ICS working like MIUI or CM7 or so on this phone or do you think there is any chance to get it working perfectly? it is possible to correct the driver problems without any emulation or "ways that it works somehow"?
one of your biggest fans, Felix
Hi, i don't think that HTC will provide an offical update to ICS for the old Vison. But i think that the devs will get the drivers in future ready for daily use. Stop waiting for a final release. The Vision was always an perfect balanced smartphone between speed and user friendly daily driver. I also testet some ICS versions but the best is a good old CM7. Nothing works so perfect. Did you missed anything for daily use? ICS is only a dev gimmic for those people who are bored of a perfect functionally smartphone. Enjoy your DZ and smile on people who whats always new version that are not testet and optimized like CM7.

absolutely right, I thought so, too. :good: it is ok and I love my phone, it is still great. but I love many features from ICS, unfortunately I have to buy a new one sometimes. I want to stick with a hardware keyboard and manufacturers slowly distance from this solution. Problems for daily use? e.g. the cam emulation is simply crappy, pic qual. is compared to the real hardware, the ICS OS emulation slows down after a while, music player apollo is crap in my opinion (CM9) and so much other stuff. but it's ok, I will possibly keep the DZ with working OS for professional use and buy a SG3 or so to play around with ICS.
Thanks for you reply and enjoy your device too!
I have also an One X, but nothing's like the best smartphone ever built --> the HTC DZ. At the and i gave my One X to my Wife and i'm still back to my old DZ. No other smartphone is so unbreakable like the DZ, i really dropped it often on the floor. I'll give you a tipp: use your DZ until it's broken and save your money for future smartphones, there's today nothing to buy like the DZ. The smartphone Coops are so busy with patents that they have no time to built new smartphones like the DZ ;-)

Same with same symptoms. though I wouldn't say camera is "working" yes you can take pictures and videos, but it will force close if you use either Smiley Effect or Time Lapse, but least you'd already know what will close it.
I think CM9 RC1 runs pretty damn stable. My only gripes are occasional GPS hiccups and less battery life. Also you can't record video but I never really cared about that feature much since the camera sucks anyways.
As title says everything. U ever disappoint with your HTC one x and why??
Well I will buy htc one x very soon.
Never, it's absolutely amazing with ARHD rom and Faux kernel. Gonna install CMX tomorrow. And btw, battery life is excellent when using ARHD. I suggest you to root it and install a custom ROM, otherwise you wont unleash the true power.

All the time:
1. Terrible battery life.
2. No camera button.
3. No replaceable battery /sd card.
4. HTC Sense is painfully slow and battery draining.
5. No USB Otg support.
6. Severe overheating.
8. Insane camera compression makes pictures unusable.
9. Insane video compression.
10. No multitasking.
11. 3 dot menu is stupid as hell.
12. Only capacitive android buttons.
13. The phone is very slippery.
14. HTC is far too obsessed with the phone being thin and as such compromises on several things.
That's all I could think of right now. Please note that some of these things can be fixed by rooting.

Well I sort of got too caught up in all of the hype and the fact that it's got 4 frickin' cores too read up on the flaws with the phone. After having rooted it a few weeks ago however I fixed a few of these problems.
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
Overall its a good phone but:
A lot of people are facing hardware defects (this is just based on me seeing posts on the forums like the 200 page wifi issue thread, it could be a lot less)
It lags a lot when compared to my 2 year old galaxy s e.g. in the browser.
You have to unlock and root if you want to see its full potential.
It gets hot.
The screen is not very scratch resistant.
The speaker is poor.
The good points are:
Sense is nice to look at.
The screen is good.
Tegra optimised games are awesome.
A lot of internal storage.
I like the way beats audio sounds (ymmv).
The battery life is okay.
It feels good in hand.
It has a great camera.
Mate if your ready to unlock the device then you won't be disappointed simple as that.
No. I'm not disappointed.
HTC One X running Viper ROM and Faux kernel....
Im running Venom X.... Im honestly still not sure if im happy with my choice.. i gone from hd2 to sgs2 to this one x. I kinda think i wish i had got to test the both before but hey ho its still a beast

happy for now.. very happy indeed...going to see what the new nexus will be like and what specs that phone will have before i make the jump again...if it is nothing special will stick with my One X as i love it
Both happy and disappointed are relative terms. The follow on question naturally becomes "compared to what?" The phone's got flaws; some people above already pointed them out. But so does the SGS3 now that it's been out for a while. So you add up the good and bad for both the One X and SGS3 (they're natural competitors) and compare them against how you intend to use the phone. The One X is an instant fail for anyone looking for removable storage and/or a replaceable battery. In fact, someone that's not OK with that shouldn’t even be asking about buying a One X. As for the screen scratching, it appears GG2 is more susceptible to fine scratches than GG1 so both phones are affected equally. As for the 200+ page Wi-Fi thread, 100 pages are the same handful of people commenting on each other’s posts. The OP alone has racked up nearly 500 posts just in that thread. It's sort of become the village of the damned where everyone goes to complain about HTC, the One X, and HTC service and support. They asked me to leave because I was interjecting optimism.
Did some research and played with it before deciding which quadcore phone to buy and disappointed that it cannot change battery and does not have a sd card slot so finally bought the LG.
Never disappointed... with ARHD and faux kernel is all perfect. Battery life is excellent and everything is fast.

How unstable is your One X?
Lately I've been having a tell of a time... probably from the unstable CM10 JB ROMS I've been trying?
How about you?
What stability problems, and what ROM/class?
My answer:
With these CM10 ROMs (CM10 nightly, Demination, etc.) I've been having random reboots all the time - and sometimes the phone is just slow as all getout... checking the SD card forever... in some cases just using the keyboard has unprecedented lag.
Change a Rom
Hy there everyone,
I've been using my (second) HOX for about a month now... still on stock, still, and I don't know why but some days it just reboots itself even multiple times for no reason and others it's like a dream.
Anyone else having this "issue".

I just went to a MIUI sense ROM and wow, what an amazing experience. Massive customisations available, the theme engine is incredible, you get the Sense camera back (and boy is it good after months on CM10), plus battery life is good. So far as stable as a rock too.
I've been running the latest nightlies (flashing every day) and havent had a single issue.
I'd suggest doing a full wipe and starting over.

Surely.
But then, I could also just make my own ROM to suit my needs. The Google Developer docs should give me everything I need, no?
Who needs forums anyways?
BTW:
What ROM are you using? Is it stable? Which ones have you tried? How did they go?
How long does it take you to try all the latest versions of all 50 some One X Roms each month?
Stable like a rock with official sense based ROMs
it requires heavy OC to even make it reboot
any insatiability is the ROM to blame
Perfectly stable running the latest CM10 nightly with NCX kernel
Mine is pretty stable when face down, but on its back it rocks a bit.
Rock solid with stock rom
few bugs, not critical and already tossed to HTC CSR (PlayBook missing icon, WiFi problem across WDS network/repeaters, People link broken if provider like FB, LinkedIn, Skype or Twitter aren't accessible while device attempt to sync)
Never rebooted neither turned off-on, always active and connected to 3G of WiFi if indoor, massive email traffic and all Google services active (calendar, GDrive, Latitude, etc.)
As stable as a mountain with CM10 nightly & Bricked kernel.

You've got bored with android after using ios for long time? Wow....take a look at play store, unlike ios, you can customize android heavily without rooting.
@all,
All stability issues are gone since updates in June and August, so every issue you have is connected to a) Rom you've flashed, b) f!cked up app, you've installed from play store, c) your hands or your basic android knowledge (sorry to say this, but it's true).
So, the thread should be closed and marked as solved.

How's the battery life with continues use of WiFi and a lot of texting and music , that's the only reson I buy a phone though
I didn't had much Time to check that dose HTC one v have sense 4.1 or sense 4 FULL ?

Is it with the money? That depends. My carrier has dropped the price continually down to $100CDN and then stopped carrying it.
It's a much better phone if you install a custom rom on it. There are other phones that are newer and will likely have a front camera for similar price.
But, saying that, I like mine (custom ROM) just fine
I just got htc one v and it's fine for me. But battery last just for one day in my case - wifi on and a lot of texting. But I like it - it's fine for me and I thkink worth it's money.

The Lockscreen is not customizable. It's not full sense. To get what you want, you would have to root it and install ckpv5's mysense 3.5 rom., which is good.
I mentioned the price because you didn't. If it's more than $100, I would say get another phone. HTC will never upgrade it. They have already said so.

I was expecting the ui to be smooth and fast but Nevermind I really like it's camera and metallic body and I hope stock Rom wouldn't be that bad cause on my explorer with 600 MHz CPU it runs sense 4 pretty good (lags for a while, but a reboot fixes that) and on my desire hd it have 1 GHz CPU and it runs sense for just like stock , full sense 4 . So if DHD can run full sense sooth as hell with 1 GHz CPU , I see no reson for HOV to lag on lite version of sense with the same CPU

You can get different lock screens. All kinds of them for this phone. There are also Full Sense 4/4.1 Roms. Not JB Sense yet though if thats what you meant. Its actually an ok phone. I mainly use mine for gps,music, camera and social. On a good sense ROM battery will be great. On AOSP it will vary and usually not be so good. Good AOSP Roms are best for gaming. The metal case really helps, and its buttoned up pretty good. Put mine through some abuse. Its holding up nice. The stock ROM on mine actually wasn't too bad. Just with stock ROM and a good kernel its usable. But the best results are from a custom rom. Lots of good ones. Still development going on.
All that being said I would actually recommend a One S for what your looking for.
The camera one the One V isn't great. Night shots suck, and at 5mp its pretty low. One S has a great camera and 1080p video.
Battery is pretty small (One S isn't much bigger though)
And the One S is more powerful and smoother.
I've had my One V for about 4 months. Always wished I got a better One S.
One V is a good beginner phone.

Battery is pretty small (One S isn't much bigger though)
And the One S is more powerful and smoother.
I've had my One V for about 4 months. Always wished I got a better One S.
One V is a good beginner phone.

Yeah 1+
Shent with shexy kitteh ushin Sensation XE and One V
Yeah so if you want it, it's a nice small, solid feeling phone, one v is good for that. But, if I were you, I'd root it and put either bandit's beaver ROM on it off one of ckpv5's
Hey thanks to all , I guess I'll be in this forum soon enough about in a 2-3 week's , one s is generally out of my budget :/
