should i buy htc one X - General Questions and Answers

i have tried a lot to find s2 i9100 bt here in india there is only g version available..
so i gave up bt today i see dis htc one x on net.it is a quad core device so it is really fast and has ics out of box.so i want opinions of all of u..so pls guide

Without any dispute, One X is the best phone right now. If you can be patient, wait for the Galaxy S3 to come out. If you can't wait to get your hands on some Quad Core Goodness, Buy The One X immediately.

If what you saying is true, it is a certain disadvantage if you use the phone for development and other purposes.What if you mess something up in your phone, and it just hangs ?? You can do nothing then and will have to wait for battery to run out or for the phone to restart itself !!
Seeing, the traditional style in which samsung makes its phones, i don't think that the battery will not be removable in the Galaxy S3. Just my opinion.

I'd get a HTC One X.
If you get one though, remember to get a second one for me.

I think he was talking about i9100G. I checked out Saholic.com and they have the i9100 Model at showcase. Don't know if its legit or not, but you can contact them and ask them (i think).
BTW Won't you go for other HTC OR Motorola Phones ?? Like Sensation, XE, Atrix 2, Razr(MY fav.).

I agree. It's just the start of an era involving quad core CPUs and the latest Android firmware devices (these devices have the upgrade guarantee which Google's trying to enforce).
I would strongly recommend waiting to see worthwhile competition from major vendors before making a decision.
Also, I too really dislike not having an expandable memory slot... It's a deal breaker for me!

no sources, no port. wait till december.
but then we'll work on the top devices first (i9000, i9100), so you'll maybe get ICS in middle of next year.

don't know if there are any devices out. there are not much developers on samsung phones. every phone we've done is running fine, but we never ported a low activity device like i9003.

really samsung has messed with our phone. They have given strong hardware support but bad complex coding has messed everything. Amit has really great knowledge of kernal coding. He also tried alot differents stuffs related to kernal such as overclocking. But he always failed like skin in getting a stable overclock kernal. They are also frustrated because they never come to know what was missing or messed in kernal codes.
I am sure that if Amit give more time for developement to u then ur both effort's will do some magic.

Even I read somewhere that ICS has better memory (RAM) management than GGB and the main reason for Samsung not developing for most of the phones is to cut the cost of development
maybe samsung wouldn't develop low activity phones, maybe samsung only continue developing high end phones

Will be there offical JB for galaxy R ?

guys do u think Samsung will remember galaxy R in their JB loffical update list like it remembered it in ICS ?
i dont think so but i m pretty sure that our devs will make it :good::good::good::good:
May be... Bcoz.. S2 AND NOTE will have it... And our device was launched after these two devices were launched... So fingers crossed....
But, still... I would prefer 10x CM10 to have.... than official JB...

Jb for R
Ok, we had a similar ICS upgrade thread for Galaxy R, now time for JB... the main reason for delay of ICS might be those of changes are far from GB to ICS, And also might be that of nvidia sources dependency.
Now that, JB is supposed to be incremental upgrade to ICS, Samsung might well look into Galaxy R once it does JB upgrades to flagships like S3, S2, Notes and Tabs.
PS: Might Just in my dreams LOL...

Sent from my GT-I9103 using xda app-developers app
Keep one thing in mind we are having R not S3.
Samsung haven't made millions of dolllars by sellings this device. so probably it won't spend money after building JB for our device which is already dead. Its great that they have kept their promise and gave ICS and sources. With help of this sources I am sure sooner or later our great devs will make JB (we have passed step one, aleast we are having booting CM10). I don't rely on samsung anymore.
Sent from my Galaxy Royale using Tapatalk 2.
hope
True on that. We have ICS, we have the sources and the tegra 2 driver. R is dead, so no official JB for us.
But we have really awesome people around here, so i'm in no doubt that we'll have CM10 eventually. (no more samsung apps or twlauncher crapping our phone)
An incrememtal upgrade will not be a big headache for sammy... That's why Jelly Bean Leaked roms have started to float around... Also. S3 got it OTA.....
I think..we will get it...but...of course much later...after S2, S3, Note, Tabs get updated.....

No,9100 released two years ago,hence got a big user/community/developer,making custom rom are easy to find,cause alot of people develop for it. Our device got small amount of user(vs millions of 9100 user),hence finding dev among us are hard .
