I know what he meant. But I found it funny and the "thanks?" was just a miss type . I did consider it for the fact that it's a pure android phone.

Hehe, glad you caught my humor. If it's any consolation, my coworker has a nexus and he absolutely loves it. I don't think he would even consider trading it for a hox. What I'm trying to say is that the grass is greener wherever you water it. - a rapper said that on the radio yesterday.

Dont, the nexus is actually an inferior phone to the one x in a lot of ways. Firstly the camera. And secondly its using a last gen snapdragon processor. Wayy more heat and lesser performance. And dont expect the nexus to even come close to the hox in battery life (owned both phones)
the only thing the nexus has on the hox is jellybean, but that isnt worth all the cons.
Total ripoff trade for you imo.

LOL A rapper said that? Words of wisdom. Well your sense of humor was the only thing I needed to say no to my friend. But you're right maybe if I had the nexus instead of the HOX I would love that trade to. Thanks again bro.

i feel the same way. also have my HOX up for sale. will be getting a S3. never buying a ATT branded HTC phone again
I've got the S3, GNex, and HOX and I'm also thinking about selling the HOX. Between the three, I find myself using the S3 and GNex the most. I love the HOX, but if I sell it now I can put the money aside towards the next Nexus phone when it's introduced. Decisions, decisions.
Nice OP! Don't worry its a great phone as long as your getting the GSM version...I have both the hox and the nexus, I use them both and love them both.

oh it def is. but this whole lock down thing is pissing me off. i already had the INT hox and was plauged with defects. then to the S4 fantastic but this whole lock down. i am sure i'll be kicking myself if and when S-off comes avail. but i miss the S-line of samsung products. now only iff the HOX screen was in S3 damn would be one perfect ass sex phone.
by NOV prices should drop drastically . but me i hate waiting :good:
if the galaxy nexus had better hardware it might actually be worth it for me..
but untill then i wouldnt want to downgrade just for vanilla android (as much as i'd love it0

And more people would rather have inferior hardware. Phone is already beastly as it is. Don't know how much more you could possibly want out of a phone performance wise.
An unlocked bootloader and root? Impossible right now on the new firmware. The HOX is a beastly device and Joe public has a lot to be happy about. However its not an ENTHUSIASTS device. AT&T made sure of that.

At&t HTC One X $50

Samsung has the same issues, my gf and her mother have sent back their phones multiple times because they just didn't work right.
Btw dude stop trolling these HTC forums and praising Samsung, it gets annoying
We are a small portion of the smart phone population and I believe those who don't educate themselves on these phones as we do are more prone to sending back phones due to idiotic issues
Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk 2
I've owned many htc smartphones and not only (tilt, tilt2, one, captivate, atrix, iphone 4, vivid, hox) and I've yet to return not even one unit (and believe me some were really abused by my kids). How in the world someone retuns 5 or more units, you gotta be retarded if after 2 replacements you still go back to the same model/brand or whatever, however if you still do it, then you must really love that device and therefore no need to complain about it.

Well no they actually were brand new phones. It was a 3 day promotion. And it stated on the fine print that there weren't refurbished units. And I personally called an att and a representative told me the same thing that was stated in fine print.

I know two people who switched and didn't have one that was locked down. One is a developer and one did some theming.

what about if its cool ,popular and a better phone?.... millions own it already not a hard thing to find out why its such a success.
many of the people at my work place own one.. and none of them even know whats xda.. so is being unlocked still the key to that success?
If you don't have one then you don't know what your missing. S3 is just good in every department!! Say no more cuzzy!!

I have an S3 on my account, I got it for a buddy of mine. I've spent a good deal of time playing with it and can't see the appeal at all. It just isn't anywhere near as nice as the HOX. 2GB of RAM, that's it. Everything else about it sucks compared to the HOX. My 1GB is working just fine for me.

Bingo u hit the nail on the head. People complain about the lack of removable battery. Ummmmmmm maybe 10% of pple would actually carry a spare. IPhone doesn't remove battery and I'm sure we're all aware of how well that does. And as far as storage goes, yea it wouldn't hurt to atleast have 32gb. But I havent filled 16. So consider me happy.

Then you should ask them. And couple people isn't everyone.
The main reason is: most users if they don't buy the iPhone they'll go for sammy because of the brand. You don't know much about a smartphone but you at least know they make good tv's, computers, refrigerators, you name it. Where else do you see the HTC logo? Many people didn't hear about it. So, obviously pick the Samsung instead.

hmmm
What is the big deal about which smartphone you use? I would bet that most people on XDA are pretty well clued up about phone tech and so, money permitting, they will make an informed purchase, buying the phone that suits them best.
I own the SGS3 and yeah, I think it is top notch handset, but that doesn't mean I diss other handsets. I like to think I'm more evolved than that (though some of my pals would dispute that :laugh. If someone comes to me for smartphone buying advice, I will try my best to give an informed opinion based on my experience and their tech knowledge and needs...and quite often I'd send them down the iPhone route, not because I think it is a better phone (though Apple, whether you like it or not, make fantastic hardware, just a shame about the company ethos), but because it is probably the best phone for them.
Most on this particular thread will probably own an HTC...again good top noth handsets, but I personally avoid them due to a very bad customer service experience a couple of years ago (threads can be found elsewhere), but that doesn't stop me recommending them to others (though I do also relate my experiences). And many others on XDA will own a whole variety of other smartphones.
The point is, does it matter which phone you own? Yes, some people will spend a fortune on a top end handset just for bragging rights, but there's nothing worse than a 'phone snob'. Most of us on XDA buy what is best for us and are generally happy and if we're not, we switch.
You pays your (hard earned) cash and makes your (well informed) choice. Enjoy what you have, worry not what other think about it and be proud that you are part of XDA and have the knowledge to tinker with and give advice about your techie toys. Just don't get caught up in a 'mine's better than yours' debate.
Happy tinkering folks!

Sad to say goodbye..

Hey guys. It's sad for me to say, but I just sold my One X tonight. Someone offered me a price I couldn't refuse. I just bought a Galaxy Note 10.1 so I may also get a Samsung phone to match.
I will miss this community dearly! Like I said in the 'Introduce Yourself' thread, this has been the best experience I've had on XDA since I joined. I hope you guys get JB soon. The wait was tough. If someone wants access to the files of the theme I made a while back I'd be glad to hand it over.
Take care guys!
P.S. I usually don't keep a specific phone for too long. I end up getting bored with it no matter how much development there is. It's just that there's so much different tech out there that I try to use as much of it as I can. Maybe it's my OCD, but I think it's just my love for technology lol.

No problem IPhones is a solid piece of hardware. I have the 4s, if it had a bigger screen I'd use it as a daily phone. But then again I get bored with a device after awhile so I'm thinking of trying win phone 8 for awhile.
