They've been pretty crappy with updates so far, so I'm hoping this won't be too long.

Good question! In case you are on a custom ROM, I have a link for the latest H3G RUU
Just relock bootloader, fastboot, connect to pc and run RUU
Of course nobody knows. It's not even available to unbranded Euro handsets yet

Really feel for you, I just got my email response from 3UK when asked when Jellybean will be available; "We do not have the updated version, it will be released at some point."
Just come from LG optimus 2x and all that saga over ics, moved to a htc one x hoping to be treated better lol only to find yet another ****ty company when it comes to customer support. Very dissapointed to say the least.
Bought the phone unlocked, alas it is still tied to 3 via CID :crying: was hoping this could be altered. Dead end there too.
All the best.
Carrier's are a pile of w#nk with updates. That is all.........
Did you try to read the thread, which is almost on top all the time, regarding JellyBean for HOX?

I do really feel for you too.
You are complaning from the update speed of a company, and you're switching to the other one, which has the biggest software package added on to Android, and you are expecting to get updates quickly.
I do, really do.
Actually Three UK were the first network to release both 1.28 and 2.17. They skipped 1.29 entirely due to radio issues. The main problem was the communication with the customer, it was terrible.
I tweeted them a few weeks back and they said they had the update in testing. But that could have been the bugged version that they didn't release globally.

Couldnt be lies, i know you are joking but it was released by a trusted source i am having trouble remembering that it would be coming to this phone. Eventually. Havent found anything on release date or such though lol. i am hoping jmz gets cm10 up and going though, it would be quite nice.
Yes its getting jb with sense 4+ when? I dunno. Nobody knows. But I'm working on cm10
Sent from my HTC One VX using xda premium
I don't think an official jb is really needed,at least for me. Jmz's sense Rom is awesome, fast and if you add the linaro kernel you would think you already have jb.
My last htc was like two years ago. So as much as I like cyanogenmod, I'll stick with stock HTC for sometime.
Sent from my HTC One VX using xda premium
The problem is with these phones is that the only get 1 official update before they are obsolete. Most likely the phone will get the official JB update 18 months into its life just when its about to hit the 2 year mark.

Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! Can someone please tell me it isn't true.
Just read it myself, grim news indeed but that's all she wrote I guess. To be fair to rich is there any more he could do with this Rom? He has took it so far and I thank him for that. Time to look for a new device as future updates either official or Dev will dry up
Sent from my HTC One X using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
True about the Rom and development, it's definitely a beauty. We owe rich and the whole team a big thank you, so thank you
I am also very said as viperx was the very first rom I ever flashed and I think the other roms will never have even near as many features as viperx. :crying:
I just hope maybe other dev will take the project from where Rich left it and provide a few more updates.

Sad moment for hox users, for me best rom, we lost also good kernel devs....this device is dying faster than his older brother Sensation...
Yeah, even the desire had longer support than this. Guess I will wait til the new year and see what comes outs. No point buying the one when they will announce a new flagship early next year

Well, maybe some dev will support viperx we will have to wait.
And i can't afford htc one, or htc m8, i am happy that i bought hox, it was a nice upgrade from Sensation, so i will settle down, see what will happen with viperx.... :S
I can't afford it either, but I could get one on contractb as my bro can get me 30% of the bill. I love my one x with viperx just feel left down by official support

HOX isnt lucky at all , once you take a look at its older brother you ca understand what I mean , if you check the HTC Sensation you will find it has much more suport
there you will have a nearly stable KITKAT ROM, not only one 1 kitkat ROM but 3 Kitakat ROM
developers there has been able to write a whole new kernel for Sensation from scratch
Team Venom over there has been able to port Sense5 to Sensation , now my sensation can run 7 different versions of Sense
Our HOX is still young but sadly there isnt much of developer love

It's not because of devs, it's because of tegra, nvidia, htc....tegra is crap for porting, nvidia is bad for drivers, and for htc is hard to relase kernel source code for nearly 4 months....
My other device with is desire hd still got MORE support than my beloved hox(and it's like 4 years old now? :/)... can't believe that the phone "died" in development for only around year and a half activity in that section. Every dev moved out from the phone like it's some kind of epic fail. Maybe it is, dunno anymore... ;(
It's not hard to understand, the phone itself is no epic fail. To me a great phone. The restrictions in hardware make it very hard to port software easy. That's the main reason !
I'll miss viper. I guess its time I go back to good ole stock.
If anyone skilled here can port ViperX+ rom to ONE X, than me and monarx could continue support to ViperX as we would be updating same base, and we would make common rom for both phone's.
Thats just an idea, i have no actual phone to try it my self, even phones are very similar it could be tricky to do it, but no impossible.
Viper Thread shouldn't be blocked, it will be the best rom for months even discontinued, if it's blocked it will die in days

No because he clearly said that they have searched for another capable dev that fits the team but without succes. Jan is to busy developing for the one.
The best thing if you want rom support is to sell the hox and by a nexus 4. Just saying

HTC One X was my first ever android phone I bought ,I didnt regret buying an HTC phone since it has a good design and build quality , but HTC is doing it wrong when it comes to Software support and buyer support ,
The life cycle of software support of HTC devices is lower when it's being compared to other devices like Samsung , as Samsung at this moment is working on porting KITKAT to S3 which is similar to HOX in capabilities , at the same time we hear nothing from HTC when it comes to our device
HTC is maybe trying in such a dirty way to stop supporting our device to force us to move to a newer HTC device , but actually that may hurt them more , our HOX has still have a lot of life in it and there is no reason we need to stop using it
If at least HTC is not going to release a newer version of Sense to our device ,it should at least release the latest kernel source which HTC has no right to hide it or keep it away as its after all an open source
I"v been thinking about ways to force HTC to do a little more support for our HOX by going into media, flooding and spamming their media threads to ask them to keep on supporting of our device
HTC at this moment is trying hard to prove its a user friendly and a good customer support company in all of its media as a way of many to get back into market and at least we we can use this point to make it hear us
I have found a couple of ways to do that which including continuous comments is all of it's Facebook pages and beside arranging a good petition page (one is enough ) and keep referring that page back into it's facebook pages again and again
so I need
1- someone who would help us by writing a good petition at www.change.com for HTC and referre it back to us here and then we spread it all over HTC Facebook pages
2-all members of XDA that would like to have more support for HOX should keep commenting , writing , ask for support and referring to petition page all over HTC's facebook pages
here are link for HTC's facebook pages I have found
https://www.facebook.com/HTC
https://www.facebook.com/htcuk
https://www.facebook.com/HTCIndia
https://www.facebook.com/htcusa
and also not to forget their G+ page
https://plus.google.com/+HTC/posts
I know it's kind of spamming but I dont think we have any other way beside that
Dude you got everything wrong ,the hox has had three major updates ,the latest is sense 5 , 4.2.2 which made hox brand new phone ,the HTC one 4.3 update was released before Samsung s4 , HTC is about to release 4.4 for HTC one which clearly is faster than Samsung updating their phones , get your facts straight mate

Read my first post again. We need the sources of the new kernel so devs have a easier job making new roms. Thats how you keep a community alive. Thats why the s3 community is a lot bigger. They take care of that. And i was talking about the hox not the one which only the dev edition is now getting 4.4 while everyone else gets it in january/february. You clearly dont know what you are talking about so inform yourself better if you are going to bash someone elses thread. Dont you think it is weird we aint got a 4.4 rom and all devs are leaving?
Sent from my EndeavorU using Tapatalk 4
im well informed buddy ,devs are leaving because hox was doomed form the beginning with the tegra cpu ,so devs left because no s-off , if you have to blame someone blame nvidia for not releasing newer kernel drivers ,remember htc built the sense 5 4.2.2 update on the old kernel ,i think everyone should be happy with the way htc treated the hox owners ,you basically have a brand new phone now , you want bigger community show as your deving skills and give us s-off ,or better buy gs3 because Samsung take care of devs as you say.

Brand new phone with 4.2.2 when 4.4 was almost out? On a old nvidia kernel after nvidia released the 3.4.10 kernel version for all tegra 3 devices? 90 days which are obligatory by law are now over still no sources still htc did such a good job? So lets say the cm devs are waiting for new sources because they dont know what they are doing? They could make the same job with old kernel? So they are waiting for nothing? S-off would help getting better rom devs? Why because they could flash the boot.img from recovery? Did you check thunders thread? If tegra 3 is so bad why is the nexus 7 on 4.4? Dont we have the same chipset? Is this the end? Yes it is...

the devs are leaving not because of no s-off...because htc doesn't release the kernel source code fast and doesn't update the phone like S3 from samsung...even if i hate samsung and their updates are always not that good...they are still getting newer android...if htc finally would release the f*cking kernel source and would update atleast to 4.4, which would make our phone again to a much powerful phone with again much better battery life then we still were having a good community here...so because there is nothing more to improve or to update really the most devs are buying other phones...and if htc will be keeping that policy, even if they have the most beautiful phones i will never ever buy again a phone from them because of their f*cking policy...
and if you would read not even the best devs were able to get s-off for hox ...nearly no one cares anymore for s.off as for kernel flashing without computer we have kernel lighter... and yup...and the update made the phone not that better...yea it made it better but not so much like it would with 4.4 !
Would be great if a admin could clean this thread so it can start over

Since they have released 4.2.2 it means that they already have the kernel source of 4.2.2, without the kernel source of 4.2.2 ,Sense 5 4.2.2 ROM wouldn't be released
They already have it but they are not releasing it

Just from the POV of software updates, the One Mini is a much better choice. As we all know the HOX has been abandoned.

But only a small bit. In the future, a new version of android will come out, only for it to be impossible to port it to this phone because of its CPU and the lack of kernel sources because Nvidia ditched it.

It's correct, but in past there are much devices, wich are no longer supported so much after HTC kill official update way. And for Users who love the Sense UI (e. g. me) it is better to go to a new phone from HTC to get updates.
BTW: i think it is better to wait a little bit (a few months) with buying a new HTC Phone. If HTC launched new One M8 phone, the old M7 will be cheaper.
