Original one X? - HTC One X

Hey guys/gals,
Thinking of getting a one X, just scoping out the one X scene here on xda.
Why is there a separate forum for one X original and one X development? I know there is a dual core and quad core model, but which is which?
I'm in Canada, so I'll be getting the quad core version.
Cheers, my potentially-future bros!

'Original' are for ROMs based off of AOSP, the 'normal' section is for ROMs based off of official sources (RUUs)...the One XL (dual core handset) has it's own forum altogether

Thanks man. Looks like I got a line on a two week old unit, already rooted for $350. Think it's a done deal!

Speculation about a 1.2Ghz dual core 4G phone called the HTC Pyramid:
http://www.engadget.com/2011/02/03/htc-pyramid-emerges-from-the-mists-of-speculation-with-a-1-2ghz/
Date: 3rd Feb; Unfortunately, looks likes it's gonna be a US only release.
Not that I know much a bout carriers and what country a phone has been released in, but if its quad band does that not mean it will work in most countries?
Or am I wrong? Haha
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
I would guess so... but it looks like some carriers in the US are doing strange things for 4g etc so I don't know if they would work properly elsewhere.

HTC One X and backbreaker tegra

Hi, guys im trying to buy backbreaker thd from googleplay but it says "your device is Not Suitable for your device" what can i do about That or any solution?
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
If your device is rooted you have to edit the build.prop ( plenty of tutorial out there => search )
If you are not rooted i don't think there is a "legal" way.
Thank you so much

How is it possible that Backbreaker THD, obviously for Tegra, isn't compatible with my One X? I can buy it with my Desire, a bit strange isn't it?

But the Desire is two years old and has no Tegra. It has a very modest Adreno 200 video chip, so it's likely it won't even run the game and at best it will but on low quality. Why is it available anyway? There is a normal version of the game, which is less expensive. Why sell a Tegra game to a device that has no benefit of it?
You are Absolutely right

Because in the app manifest you can't filter by CPU, but you can (and obviously the dev had done it) by screen density. That's about the only thing that's different and could make your desire suitable for the app, as it has the same density as the older tegra 2 phones. I would suggest contacting the developer as it would be a minor update on his part, so it can be done quickly.

There are other ways to block devices, you can filter out any device you want. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/9510649/how-to-restrict-android-app-to-specific-device-make
So it's just plain laziness or greed of the developer.

Neither, you need to go up another level and find the AT&T One X / One XL forum.

Which one is better to use as nexus, one x or s3?

Hi,
I wanted to buy the nexus 4 but since yesterday, i know the nexus is not coming to my country (belgium). Since i need a new phone (my htc desire is running on it last breath) i wanted to review my options. The best phones available here are the s3 and the one x or one x+. I would like to make it a nexus via a custom rom. I know it is possible with all three but is one better than the other? l have heard that the exynos soc is a pain for developing for example...
And the buttons on one x are more stock them s3.
Looking forward to your answers!

I would have choosen s3 if i could buy again. But dont get me wrong. One X is a good phone. Just no s-off..

I bought Galaxy Nexus off Amazon Germany for 325 euros two months ago. I also know a colleague of mine who arrogantly ordered a nexus 4 off the internet yesterday and expects it to be delivered tomorrow.

Maybe for the following reasons.
1. OP owns a Desire
2. Asking this on any of the three device specific threads will only yield bias to the device it was posted on.
3. Ran out of ideas.
Hey at least its not another best rom thread.

Exactly! I thought about posting it on the two forums of the devices in question but i figured they would recommend their own device anyway.
And yes i have a desire now so maybe other desire owners are thinking about changing too

I would prefer..
Nexus 4
HOX+
S3
In that order. The price point + longer software support just screams value for me. Just look at the support Nexus S got.

I agree, except pay attention to the nexus 4 forums first. I think the early release has a few problems. Wait for the dust to settle about the nexus excitement, then if the reviews are still good, buy it.
I would choose one s.

HTC promises exploring KitKat for the One X

Hopes for htc ONE X to update :
Before questions could even kick off, HTC revealed in their Reddit AMA that — although they may not have the best track record when it comes to delivering timely Android software updates in the past — they’re hoping to change this image moving forward. How, you ask? Well, HTC has formally announced their new commitment to support all their future flagship devices with major updates for 2 years after they’ve been released.
Pretty bold words, considering HTC recently announced that the HTC One X and One X+ would no longer receive updates past Android 4.2.2 (which just rolled out last month, by the way). But according to HTC, it was a lack of support from NVIDIA that caused them to drop support for the global One X and One X+ (which ran the NVIDIA Tegra 3 chipset). So then what happened to the One X/XL in the US that uses a Qualcomm processor? Apparently, they didn’t feel like it would have been fair to only update X, while leaving the X+ users high and dry.
But, after much feedback from the One X community, HTC is now announcing that they’ve changed their tune, and are “actively exploring” how they can upgrade the HTC One X to Android 4.4 KitKat.
http://phandroid.com/2014/02/14/htc...s-for-2-years-exploring-kitkat-for-the-one-x/
Seriously?!? And, of course, they would only update the One X using the Qualcomm chipset, meaning the AT&T One X and the One XL? And leave the X+ completely out?
Sure, it would make some HTC One X users happy, but leave MOST of us ANGRY AS HELL.
I don't get it, why not pressure Nvidia to give support for their chipset? They did provide support for the Nexus variant, why not resurrect support for our version as well?
Well fingers crossed ,may be some glimmer of hope still .
So really we should be petitioning nvidia as well as htc

HTC promises to explore Kit Kat possibility for one X. But explicitly stated that is the North American version. Can we expect some love for the international version too...

Sign and share this too because its actually nvidia who is not providing support.

That seems to be the right way to do it. Looks to me that Google already presured nVidia because the T30/T33 versions got 4.3/4.4 BSP and the AP33 didn't. Very strange since the architecture of those chips are almost the same. So nVidia has no reason not to release the same BSP sources for the AP33.
HTC should pressure them hard because theyve bought a lot of chips from nVidia and they cannot just cancel support after less than two years.
