On my fourth HTC one x. Should I switch? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727

As the title says I am on my fourth HTC one x and getting tired of the bugs and screen defects I have had with the phone. How much of a difference would the SGS2 skyrocket be? Should I get another one x or go the skyrocket route?

I would suggest going to a skyrocket if you are having this kind of luck. The skyrocket may have a slightly different processor. But still 1.5ghz. Skyrocket is still running 2.3.5 out of the box but there are solutions for 4.0.4 already in this forum. Can somebody correct where I'm wrong please.

All of that. I had an original SGS2 but wanted LTE. That's why I originally switched to the HTC one x.
I just want a phone that I can get and use for 2 years without problems lol.

Don't downgrade. The One X is a beautiful device.
The One X will have much better dev support and will actually get Jelly Bean, unlike us.

Really. I come to ask a question and get this.... Lol

is this common with the one x? They have tons of issues or what? I haven't even looked at or considered one due to no sd or removable battery. That's a deal breaker for me

Found that to be a small issue. Storage is segmented between apps and system. Also this is the third screen issue I've had.

I would never even consider getting a one x because it has no external sd or battery. And with all those issues, I would ****can that turd.

But what problems with the phone were you having? User error or just HTC?

Had a One X for 2 days. Sold it and purchased the Skyrocket. The One X is slick, I just don't like HTC anymore.

Screen went out the last one I had. 12 dead pixels one before it. Camera had a dark spot in every picture before that. First one.screen was red.....so yeah

If u are having that many problems dump the turd, besides u didn't really like dumping a Sammy for a HTC right??? Lol

Not really. Just needed LTE. This phone feels fast but something isn't right about it. Feels too much like an apple product.
How's the battery life on the USGS2 skyrocket? Will it get an official CIS update?

I call BS...AT&T hasn't had the One X in stock for 2 weeks. You're full of it...go play somewhere else.

Should stay on one X. The S4 processor is much more better den the S3 processor in the skyrocket. And S3 indeed, outdated

With certain accessories these days, you could easily get one that ends up making the phone the actual accessory.

Vivid or one x

International version of One X is plain full of issues. I wouldn't go for it.
US version One X is a great phone all the way around, battery life, performance, and gorgeous screen. Vivid can't touch it and I'm not a Samsung fanboy. Had an international version and returned because of issues. Too bad Motorola never unlocked the atrix 2, it would have been awesome.

Worst phone you've owned and why? ...

HTC fuze. God, that thing was awful. I must have replaced it three times in the first two months of ownership. The hinge would never close properly. I got one with the paint chipping, new out of the box.
And the worst part was WM 6. Bazillion restarts day.

Is the resize issue really gonna be bad,cause the htc one's screen size is not that far off from ours i really dont see that as a big issue,maybe the keyboard might be an issue and a few other minor things but i dont think it will be like making sense 5 work on a wildfire or something similar to that size!!!!

It will because that phone is 1080p and this one is 720p. Its the resolution that matters, size is just a small factor.

I realize that. It was actually $574 shipped through them. Once I sell this phone I'll make up most of that. I'm sure for the people who buy on contract a way will be found to by pass the block on htcdev once it goes into effect. This forum is awesome for that.

S4, Note II, or HTC One?

Hey guys,
So I had my Skyrocket now for some time (still love it), AT&T just came out with an offer where you can get pretty much any of their phones $199 and below for 50% off. So S4, Note2 and HTC One are only $100, not bad right?!?!
Now the question is if you guys could pick which one would you guys for and why? I like all 3, size is not an issue. Hope I could get some feedback to make a choice. Thanks.
Probably should have stuck this in the next phone thread but wouldn't the note2 be 150 since its 300? Unless it dropped in price. Personally tho, I'd say s4. I'm sure spitfire will stop in and say get the One because its the most amazing phone in the world . But really, go with what suits your needs. Or if you still dig the rocket and it does what you need, save your money.

Design that never fails to excite me, kind of excitement that I get when buy a brand new phone.
Sent from my HTC One
Totally sorry, did not see the next phone thread.
The Note 2 is $199 on AT&T. So it will be $100. The only thing I really like about the Note 2 is the battery life.
So it's basically between the HTC One and S4.
I would be getting it as a bday gift, so I'm lucky in this situation.

If it's gonna be the same software, why would you go with plastic over aluminum? Plus ours will be cross-flashable with sense and vanilla and the s4 wont be.

Why would you want a 4 Megapixel camera that is no longer software optimized for it (by HTC's proprietary software)? That said, the S4 does feel pretty flimsy and fragile, in my limited experience with it.

At the end of the day Samsung's always have a better Dev following, how important that is is up to u.
I will again greatly endorse the S4, especially Dev edition if u can spring for it.
Yeah, I really like the HTC One A LOT! The only thing is that I know the Devs for Samsung are amazing, just look at our Skyrockets still being able to stick around with the S3/4. I dont know how the HTC One Devs will be, I havent really gone around their Forums yet.
However, I'm sure they have to be a few great Devs there working on it, esp with vanilla Android coming out for the HTC One coming out.
Thank you guys for your inputs, helped me think of some important factors that I missed out on.
The devs are great over there. They love the device and there is a nice selection of good roms over there.
