is it possible to port sense to our nexus ?
That would be considered Warez... So it may be "possible" but wouldn't be completely legal as HTC sense is not Open Source like Android.
People port things like this all the time back and forth. Yeah it kind of is "warez", but xda seems to turn a blind eye to it.
Once HTC releases an ICS update for one of its phones, then you may see one pop up for the GNex. I doubt you will until then.
I thought we were buying GN to get all stock ...
but in my opinion it would be awesome to see sense on this screen
so maybe there is a chance to get it work ..

No JB ROM has Sense right now.
HTC has not released JB for any device as of yet. JB will come only with One X+. Even then it will probably take 2-3 months for Sense with JB to work for DHD. Atleast not unless One V or One S get their JB updates(if any).
I think our phone get old .. we should buy one x
Maybe the time has come to buy a new phone. Thanks for replys.
Don't buy another HTC phone, they promised ics for us and then they told us Desire HD couldn't run it. A lie!!!

well actually they did not said anything like that...
they cancelled ICS for DHD because there would be no way to upgrade without formatting system partitions which would lead to loss of users data and so on...

Yes, and an average user will not be happy with this. ROM flashers dont care, but normal users do

True, but they could have released the update, clearly stating in the update info screen that it will lead to loss of data. So then, only the users who want it would run it, while the others would simply cancel it. This is a no-brainer. Other companies have done this, so I don't see why HTC can't. Re-partitioning and loss of data is no excuse for a company to renege on their promised upgrade. At best, they could have released an RUU on HTCdev for our phone just like they did for the HTC Desire GB upgrade. That way only really knowledgeable users would run it.
The truth is, they never started work on ICS for the DHD at all. *Every* other HTC phone had an ICS leak a month or two before they officially got it. The DHD had none. They never started work on the DHD, because they didn't want to spend their time and money on the oldest phone in the list, expecting people to buy their new One series instead. That's a crap move. It wouldn't be that bad if they didn't promise the upgrade in the first place and then go back on their word, but they did. Motorola did the same thing with the Photon 4G and 2 other phones. At least we got Froyo > Gingerbread. Those phones were stuck on GB their entire life, and Motorola had the gall to offer a $100 discount (not cash-back) for customers of these phones, if they purchased newer Motorola phones.
On the other hand, you have Sony Mobile which us releasing alpha stage ROMs of upcoming upgrades to the community, along with kernel source code for the alpha ROM, taking suggestions from the community and actively working together to develop that ROM. That is how a company should be. Motorola is crap and HTC has gone far down that route. They just don't care. Sony as a company can't work to upgrade all their phones all the time too, because ultimately it costs time and money, but to counter that they are actively helping the community by providing drivers and binaries for custom ROMs. This is the reason more or less all Sony Xperia phones (low-end to high-end) have official CM support. HTC and Motorola make great phones but their business practices and ideologies are just wrong.

Incase you haven't heard the HTC One X has started to receive Sense 4+ and Jelly Bean.
Obviously a lot of people are excited about this and myself included find myself checking every 5 minutes for the update.
So I would like to ask people who already have the update to discuss new features, hopefully some videos and equally any bugs or issues you may have.

That's what I'm hoping for. It must be getting close to the time more otas start coming out.
Maybe I'm the only one, but I would like to hear from people who already have the official ota and their thoughts, opinions and experiences.

Seems that anyone who has jb is to busy playing with their new toys!
I don't think the update is available outside of Taiwan for the moment. However, based on various sources mentioned on different threads here, I gather it will come rather soon, for unlocked devices, most likely in less than 1 week (there are even mentioned dates, but it's +/-1 week - 5th of Nov. for UK, 6th of Nov. for France, etc.... I'd say in 2 weeks tops most of us will have it).
We r going to see 4.1.x soon in Europe too, but 4.2 may come earliest in 2013–3rd quarter I guess, because in March'2013 a new flagship will surely come with 4.2 it is that simple. Personally i am really excited about the new features that will come with it.

Nah just using the Maximus rom based on the latest elevate base. Noticed it on the one x+ base and other roms though
Here in Taiwan not every one got the OTA yet. Only people with non-carrier endorsed phones get the OTA (we call "retail version"). In TW, The phones are "endorsed" by carriers with their bloatwares but the phones are otherwise not SIM-locked. Most people here got the "endorsed" version even without any connection with the carriers. (we don't really care since it's not SIM locked)
Currently people with the "endorsed" version can flash the "retail version" of old RUU then can receive the JB OTA, even CID is different. (you need unlock, of course)
I think it would still take some time for HTC to prepare the "endorsed" JB OTA in Taiwan. It would take longer for the rest of the world to get it, I think...
BTW, this OTA kills my Light sensor and P-Sensor and HTC replaced them hardware-ly. Better wait longer...

Title says it all, what do people feel, given the delay on 4.1 and imminent M7?
hope so htc didnt say anything yet
HOX will receive updates for a long time, for sure
I definitely hope so, but I don't think that HTC is going to release an update to 4.2. But if they do, it will sure be the last update for the HOX.
I think they will need to give support for at least a year, if they want to keep their customers. But I fear the worst.
No future support = bye bye HTC

I don't find that reassuring at all. Given the cliff-dive HTC shares have taken, they might be tempted to cut some corners on long term support.
However, wasn't Google obliging OEM's to give at least 2 year support for devices. Thought I heard something like that somewhere in 2011/2012
Anyway, fingers crossed
Would be stupid if it doesn't receive past 4.2 , hox sure is more then capable of running higher system, besides it's rumored sense 5 is lighter then 4+ .. anyway if we don't ... well bbye htc.
The OneX+ is not supposed to come with Android 4.2 and Sense 4.5 stock? I think I read that somewhere..
has anyone read THIS?

can be something true?
I'll believe it when I see it. Can't imagine it happening though as I thought I saw the other day that the one x wasn't getting 4.3
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
no one knows but someone from HTC said or better asked "who said we will drop support for hox?" maybe we will get only 4.3 but that would be even enough and if 4.4 htc is best...because the customers service and support etc is getting better and repair service...got nearly new hox without paying anything...only delivering...lol
Read on twitter a post by the liabrjfjjf whatever his nick is (a known source) that htc jewel will get 4.3 android in the future. So it is possible that we might too. I doubt about 4.4 though.
Sent from my HTC One X
I think and i can imagine, that it can be the most probable, that if htc update the hox, they are going to update to 4.4 because 4.3 is a minimalistic update from 4.2.2 so it can be a lost of time, so if we can expect a update it is going to be 4.4, that is what all the phone companies are doing, they are updating their phones to android 4.4 and they jump the minimal update of 4.3, anyways we have to wait!
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
if htc wan to compete with samsung...htc better give hox 4.4 update as galaxy s3 also getting 4.4...
Jeff Gordon from HTC said "Who told you we are dropping support for the One X ?" on twitter. Ok I have 2 possible theories why we *may* get 4.4
1. Because of the whole 4.2.2 and 4.3 mess.
See, unlike us, a majority of newer devices such as the One, One Dev Edition, Butterlfy, Droid DNA and Butterfly S did not receive 4.2.2. During that time, 4.3 was just announced and HTC opted to jump straight to 4.3 for those devices. Now, this was fine since if you look at their changelogs, 90% of the 4.3 update for them was what we got in 4.2.2. Fair enough. They were finally receiving the things we got. Now, the reason why they didn't update our phones to 4.3 was because I believe the amount of improvements were too little. So they just skipped it since 4.4 was on the way. What they may do now is jump 4.3 and go to 4.4 for us since it's pointless to give us 4.3 now. This is all due to the system requirements being halved and probably because of the One X+
2. Now, like I've said before, if they were to drop the One X at this point, it'd be understandable since it's more than 18 months now. However, the One X+ isn't. They have no real reason to drop it. Now, if they were to support the One X+ but not the One X, it would look REALLY bad because both devices are identical, just a minor bump in front camera specs, internal memory and a newer type of T3, all of which do not influence the ability to run 4.4. Plus, the Nexus 7 2012 like I have still has SoC support from nVidia, so they can't pull a fast one by saying they have no SoC support. They do.
Remember, this is my theory. It's based on my own reasoning and what I've managed to make out of the whole situation. Take it with a pinch of salt, knowing that our devices have seen 3 major Android versions and that is on par with or even better than Nexus devices. Don't see what I mean ? The Nexus One started with 2.2, updated to and died at 2.3. The Nexus S started with 2.3, updated to 4.0 and died at 4.1. The Galaxy Nexus started with 4.0, updated to 4.1 and 4.2.2 and finally died at 4.3. See ? Excluding the Gnex, we are on par and have even surpassed the Nexus line. So I am happy. Guess what I'm trying to say is, there may be hope but at the same time don't get over excited. As for the tweet by Football, it may have been just his own speculation, since we all figured this phone died at 4.2.2. At the time, he didn't even see the features for 4.4 and he probably didn't know about the rush HTC was making to get 4.4 out onto the One within 90 days.
@RohinZaraki...agree with your statement...since nvidia still supporting 2012 nexus 7...htc can get the sources too....so hox & hox+ should get android 4.4 update too...one x+ just 1 yr old phone...
If I should have to add a 3rd reason why that news article seems sorta legit to me, I'd say because the list of devices there seem reasonable. Look at the HTC section itself. All high end devices with respectable specs. Same can be said about Samsung and Sony. I'm not too sure about the hierarchy of LG devices but they seem reasonable to me too. I remember the Sense 5 4.2.2 update was a little hard to swallow for us since the One S was also listed, but this seems like a more reasonable list. Hopefully they are right.
Is look like imaginary post

If Samsung update the GS3 to 4.4 then HTC are going to put a nail in their coffin if they don't update the HOX.
Pity there is no easy way to get S-Off as that would make updates irrelevant to me then. (unlocked boot loader is lame in comparison)
