Selling One V and Buying DHD? - Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, i'm planning to get DHD by exchanging it with my HTC One V.
Is it better than One V?
How is the battery life on ICS, i smwhr read it last for max.6hrs.
And r games like Temple RUN, GTA 3 and other HD games works smooth?
Please guide me.

I'm not sure how accurate these lists are but they show the specs for each phone.
HTC Once V
HTC Desire HD
I've not used the One V before. I still thoroughly enjoy my Desire HD.
I'm not really a gamer (on the phone), so I don't know about gaming performance.

With a bit of tinkering you can get a full day of heavy use and GTA3 runs great.

In all ways i believe Dhd is superior than one V . . Only the draw back is it doesnt run official ics . .
If u need custom ics roms . . Its here. .

Welcome to DHD world...

It depends on which rom you are using and also depends on ur phone. . .
If u want a ics rom with more battery life try Ice cold sandwitch . .
Its a no sense rom with more battery life(2-3 days avg usage) and less bugs for me. . .

What should be for a year old DHD.
With ICS + sense 4.
On slight gaming and always on WiFi on.
I heard Battery Life of the phone is awful thts y

Isn't the One V just a repackaged DHD for the most part?

I've used both phones and If battery life is what you compare between the two you will be really disappointed with the DHD!

There's not much of a comparison between One V and Desire HD - http://www.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPhone1=3468&idPhone2=4575
Screen - Both same resolution, DHD has a bigger screen and a bigger backlight, so more battery usage there. One V screen is smaller, but is SLCD 2 which compared to DHD's LCD is better.
CPU & GPU and Chipset - Exactly same. That's why in my previous post I said the One V is just a repackaged DHD.
RAM - DHD has 768 MB, One V has 512 MB.
Camera - DHD has 8MP, One V has 5MP, but we all know that doesn't matter. See the link above for sample shots. Don't know which is better. DHD has a dual LED flash (extremely bright) while One V has a single LED flash, so the DHD has even more battery drain when using the camera with flash.
Battery - DHD has a measly 1230 mAh, whereas One V has 1500 mAh.
Now considering that for the most part they have the same hardware, especially the stuff that constantly uses battery (CPU & GPU), the One V has a smaller screen and a bigger battery than the DHD. Of course it has better battery life, there's nothing to discuss regarding that. That said, I prefer my DHD because I love it's build quality and the overall look and feel of it. Battery life is not an issue for me because I have 3 batteries that I keep with me when I'm outside, so that's 3*1230 mAh = 3690 mAh effectively. When doing a direct comparison of battery life, the One V will be much better, but something to consider here is that it doesn't have a removable battery. Once it's drained fully, you'll have to charge it. I just swap the battery in my DHD - makes life easier than having to run around looking for a charger.
So what you should buy comes down to these 3 things -
1. Bigger or smaller screen?
2. Heavy user or medium to light user that can make do with non-removable battery?
3. Software upgrades - The DHD will not receive any more upgrades from HTC, so your only source of the latest software is this forum and all the custom ROMs here. The One V will receive at least an upgrade to JellyBean, so you'll have a fully working version of the latest software without doing anything (if that's what you want).
I haven't spoken about the camera because I don't know how the One V camera is. You'll want to check that out too if you're a major camera user. The DHD camera is good.

And not to forget dhd has so many android choices from 2.2 to 4.1 while one v only have ics roms

Search read and find out for yourself. Stop being lazy. There is a sticky were it has reviews for the phone. There is a battery stats thread were you can.check the battery life of the phone and many people have asked the same stuff you did so search for them.

I had the sensation and was my first android or any type of smart phone, im no dummy either so it took me bugger all to learn the tricks of the trade. Sensation was def a great phone no doubt's there and the software upgrade made the phone even better from GB to ICS, but it was not perfect.
The HTC one x was a great upgrade in comparison with the battery being about the same as the sensation with all the kernel tweaks and software updates on the sensation. With that said the one x is still early so could surpass the sensation with future updates, also the standby is far better on the one x with it dropping next to no life over night its so awesome xD.
Performance wise its better by nearly two fold with the UI being more aggressive and advanced with having to run more and yet being more smooth than the sensation in the end, Games are obs better with tegra 3 but normal games are also better as well.
As far as sense goes it might be opinion dependent but i think most would agree with the 3dot removed it is by far the best thing htc have bought out with their UI layouts.
Camera is better by two fold, sound is much better, HP output much better, build quality IMO much better, the list could go on.
Lolz you know i am so fedup with this phone as i am planning to switching back to Sensation until some good quality quad-core HTC devioce will come, i am selling it, maybe i suddenly find something great in One X, and postpong selling it, well the main reason is the poor battery life, i can hardly get a freedom to use my phone without having to worry about remaining battery, i have just xplore, es file explorer, opera mobile and uc browser installed, with no auto restart app or the one which runs at the background all the time, eerything else is stock apps, i know everyone has different opinions about different things, and you should explore and research more about it, un-removable and poor battery life is the one thing, then i saw some people reported it shows a lot more memory in use even if they have used a less than that, i am just planning to switch to Sensation..could have get Galaxy S3, but don't like samsung devices at all, so i am going with Sensation + 64gb card in place of this peice of crap..

I assume you're joking. My battery life on one x is about the same as sensation on custom ROM and kernel with Anker battery. The one x will get much better battery life over time.

Install Betterbaterystats from the playstore, i guess you have some stampeding apps in the background running. How long is your screen-on-time? I get a full day easily on one charge!

im coming from the sensation myself, the htc one x is superior in many ways
i checked with betterbatterystats, i don't take my cell with me at office, so it's usually powered off for 10 hours per day, now i turned it on for 10 minutes, and exactly same is the screen on time according to betterbattery stats, and wifi is also running, so i charged it fully before turning it off, and now after 10 minutes i think it has used 7% of juice so far...what do you think?
I did the same upgrade, definitely worth it!
I owned a Sensation XE and currently own an international One X.
I loved my XE. Prior to that I had an Amaze 4g, prior to that I had the original Sensation. My XE was stock, running ICS with Sense 3.6. I noticed after the ICS update, my phone ran hotter at times (typically during web browsing). Anyhow, I am very happy with my One X. Here's why...
1) Larger screen with better viewing angles and at a higher resolution. 2) Thinner body. 3) Significantly better camera. 4) GREAT battery life.
A few cons though: 1) Slightly laggy at times (so was T Mobile's Sensation when it first was released-software updates will cure this). 2) It will get warm/hot but not as hot as my XE did after the update. 3) Non removable battery and storage (always had the option prior and hate the fact that it is no longer an option with the One series).
The screen on the XE was not all that great. Day to day use was perfectly fine, however if you were to compare both handsets side by side, you will quickly realize how awesome the screen on the One X is. Black text is closer to gray though, however I am okay with that considering the screen itself is vibrant and really sharp along with the fact that it no longer "washes out" as you tilt the screen. The angles are amazing.
As far as battery life, ICS does a hell of job with power management-one of the first things I noticed with my XE after the battery. Still, it would be great to be able to OD on your phone and simply pop in a fully charged spare which again, not an option here. My phone is on from 7 am to about 10 pm before I hit 10%. I text often, web browser frequently, FB all day, Twitter all day, Gmail, hotmail syncing every 15 mins, WiFi on the majority of the time, some YouTube. It is really quite amazing that I can do all of this stuff and confidently not worry about my phone dying on me.
The processor itself is quite the novelty. Great for more complex gaming however in day to day life, it will feel the same as the Sensation XE or any of the more recent HTC's prior to the One series.
The camera is really that great. No other HTC can touch it as far as quality. The Amaze had better quality than the Sensation and One X surpasses the Amaze when it comes to final results. Very pleased with the camera/video.
The One X is slightly wider than the XE and definitely longer (just like the One S is longer than the XE) but you get use to it quickly. If you have smaller hands though, it will be a problem.
If you get one, hope you enjoy it as much as I am.
Later
well , just have my 1X ,coming from XE
@the very first glance .. wow ! this is not a phone
it is a piece of art , and you'll realize instantly that it is a generation ahead over the sensation which has not such "impression" when compared to one year older DHD .
yup view angles completely changes the way you work with this device you can simply use from the worst possible positions lol
this the same for the weight and ergonomics never held a device that felt so elegant n refined in hand, like gf7800 its a masterpiece, you feel the future is now
the One X is just pure awesomeness if it wasn't for some of its trouble on stock software and the difficulty to acquire a flawless built one x
for example lag can be cured using root by ultra smooth sense launcher and custom kernels
also minimum clock control is a must for THD games and of course multitasking mem free values foe those who want more multi tasking

[Q] Battery Defect

How can i know if my battery is defect? i think so because i never had a better result than 10hours with my one x.. i tried everything! Flashed 100 Roms and 100 Kernels (Repacked and not) and cleaned my system 100times xD how can i test if its damaged? my htc is 2 weeks old!

[Q] ROM Suggestion For HTC One X

Hi ive been reading this forum for a while though I have just signed up and am currently making my first post.
I am currently on SFR Htc One X International Edition Tegra 3 v3.14 (the jellybean one version).
I currently experience heat problems as many on this forum even while web browsing with chrome and listening to music.
I have already rooted my device. My question is : what rom should I use ?
I am looking for a rom which doesn't have all that extra stuff like ViperX like extra options when pressing power button. I am looking for a rom (with sense or without ) that without many alterations except performance tweaks and which will reduce my device temperature.
Thanks for your suggestions
You could try the blade rom, its very stripped down and fast !

I finally installed Blade rom and was very satisfied with it Though it was really fast it still had some heat issues. What I did to fix it was since it was already so fast, I disabled 2 of my cores and the UI was still silk smooth with almost no difference to the naked eye.
Then my battery temperature stayed under 30 degrees when doing normal operation. While web browsing and listening to music a slight heat sensation is present but its okay with a battery temperature not going over 35 degrees.
I tested playing temple run for 25 min and end result was battery temperature of 40-45 degrees and with only a little stuttering. The latter happened only once when i think some auto sync program requested some cpu time but overall i am now very satisfied and my battery life also got really extended.

Battery life is killing me

Hi all, I bought my brand new original HTC One X 3 days ago and it got the newest android version for it, JB. But there is a big problem and it is the battery, it's just horrible to see such a awesome phone with a battery life like that. Does anyone know which things I can do to have a better battery life? I already have the almost lowest brightness, no live wallpaper and no antivirus on the phone. I also use the official energi saving function that comes with jelly bean but it doesn't even make the battery better at all, not even a little bit. Please help!!!

You will find your phones battery life will improve, mine wasn't that good for the first few days.
When ever i get a new phone i always charge it over night & then when its off charge leave it till it bleeps to be put back on charge, do that for the first few times as i find it gives the best life.
Mine is very good now

can u say how long your on screen time or general battery life is? but at the first few times/days/weeks it's really bad but after few charge cycles it will bet better because the battery has to improve itself with the information the phone gives, you know? wait and charge and after a week or so it will be really better...
Or if you just disable google now you will be good. If you disable google maps aswell your battery life will be perfect. Something is wrong with those two
That issue is just with jelly bean

if you play more then 1 hour or so then that's not so bad because if you play a game or two only from full charge you can reache 2- 2,5 hours...with games like THD games or other which make a lil bit more heat or so ....and if you play only games like solitaire for this time or so ...then that's really not normal...you know that in the hox are 4 cores and 8 gpu cores, and therefore the battery isn't like in a phone with 2,500 or more mAh because our has only 1,800 mAh ...if yo uwant to disable it press long home button and then you can press the menu button and there will be settings in that you can disable google now and for the other google things just go in settings then apps and then all apps and there you can click on any app ! but don't deactivate system apps! and if you click on them there will be a button deactivate and yes press it and it is disabled
I usually play Dead Space but not for more than 20 minutes because the phone heats up like hell -.- And I disabled google now hope the battery will be a little bit better, but any more ideas how I can get better battery life please
With my HOX, I found having brightness at 60% or less made the biggest impact. Also, disabling wifi when not needed made a huge difference. Decrease the time between auto syncs, and also check for wakelocks. Might have an app waking the phone a lot.
But I do understand where you are coming from. The battery life was killing me also, so I bought a Note 2 as a primary phone and now use the HOX as a music player for which it is outstanding haha
the first time the battery is always bad ._. just wait some days or so and it will be better...and look with betterbatterystats which wakelocks you have then you can see which apps might make the battery life also more worse...
Thank you very much I will try them, the battery seems to be a little bit better when I turned Google Now off

Pretty obvious, isn't it? Plus the Snapdragon S4 Krait has a better manufacturing process (I think 32nm) compared to Tegra 3's 40nm process, so it's more efficient and less power hungry.

Not true. Look at the RAZR Maxx. If Motorola can put such a huge battery in a thin phone, there's no reason other manufacturers can't. Also, it was definitely possible to put a bugger battery in the One X, but HTC just didn't do it. They instead released One X+ sometime later and claimed better battery life as a 'feature'. That's just wrong, and very similar Motorola releasing the RAZR, and then the RAZR Maxx soon after. The phone should have had that battery since the start. The only reason I can find with Motorola is that the RAZR is slightly thinner for those who want it that way. But the One X and One X+ have 0 design difference.

My point was in comparison to old phones.it'll be a long time before we get as good batrery life as on old phones. Reason being smArt phones just do to much nowadays..many forgetting it's actual purpose
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
Just don't forget that the T3 is a pretty "old" chip, it needs a lot of power.
Nevertheless, I think the One X isn't that bad regarding battery life. It will drain quickly if you start gaming, but you should expect that. It's no gaming device, it's still a smartphone. Of course you can play your games every now and then but if you expect you can game with that thing for hours without getting it to heat up or charge it in the meantime, you put your money on the wrong device

Buying a HTC One X or ... ?

Fist of all, hello. :laugh:
By this time I use Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, but I just want to change it for something better. I have an offer for HTC One X (second hand), but I know that this smartphone is not first youth. I have an offer for Sony Xperia SP too, but the thing is that I don't know what is the best choice. I also know that Tegra 3 is less performance than Adreno 320, but HTC One X has quad-core CPU @ 1,5GHz. (versus dual-core @ 1,7 GHz Krait CPU in Xperia SP.) What is the better choice in this situation ? (Prices are almost the same.)

Oh, my bad. Sorry for that, you are right. Please move my thread in the right forum. Thanks.
Moved to Endeavor Q&A (quad core version).
The One X is a speedy phone, but how important is battery life for you? That's the only concern I would have with getting a One X, especially second hand. Replacing the battery can be done but it isn't an easy process and even a new battery depletes fairly quickly. Not sure how the Xperia fares in that department.

I think you will love the One x. Its screen is so sharp and beautifull and sense 5 is really very smooth with a lot of features. Build quality is really good. And it has very good performance and if devs makes use of tegra (with thd games for example) its still really powerfull device

Actually, I am pleased with 1 day battery life. That is not very important for me. I want to know what phone - HTC One X or Sony Xperia Neo has better performance in gaming and multi tasking, internet surfing etc.

Sorry, but if you're using the phone for multi-tasking and gaming you probably won't even get a day out of it. 6 hours perhaps. You might get a little more out of it if you're on very low brightness.
It's a shame because the phone would be fantastic for gaming with a better battery. I have no idea how the Xperia compares though.

You are right. But I am not a phone addicted person and i mean that if I use my phone I use it for this kind of operations, nothing special. I am especially interested in the performance of both phones - Sony Xperia SP versus HTC One X.

Performance wise I've always found the One X to be excellent, especially once the upgrades got to 4.2.2. I've had mine just under 2 years and it still performs as well as the day I got it. If you ignore battery life the One X is a superb phone, even in the current market.
Got not too long ago one too. Overall, htc one x is very nice phone, really fast and feels very nicelly in hand and still has a very good performance. But its battery is piece of crap. Totally. Well, maybe I'm just not used yet, but even my htc hd2 with wp 7.8 was better than HOX. I'm adding my battery stats from today (well, maybe my battery is defected or this is normal I still don't know) and as you can see, it's ****.
The battery is definitely the weak point of the phone. The 4.2.2 update helped a little but it's still a pretty poor performance. You can install the HOX+ battery into the HOX if you're feeling brave but I have no idea what type of boost it gives, if any.

I actually find the 3.xx base much better for battery than 4.xx
Sense 5 although nice is rather battery hungry.

I've only ever had my One X on the stock ROM so I don't think I've been below 4.0 ? Battery is definitely improved for me on 4.2.2 compared to whatever the previous version was.

i was talking about base numbers sorry. both are 4.2.2 i believe but 3.xx bases use sense 4+ rather than sense 5 which gave me much better battery life
