The Charge & Sync BT Dock! Can anyone verify that this is the super elusive version for the One XL?

looks good though my phone with case may not work ..

Would love a gray one but I can't seem to find it on their site.

I've only seen white, now that you mention it. That includes the EU one.

Just purchased one from AT&T. Will post pics and a review when it comes in (hopefully soon!)

But what you are you gonna do, eh? None of the third party docks I've seen look half as sharp and easy to use as this.

but the aftermarket docks work with a case

How do the metal contacts touch through the case?

Awesome! I've been waiting for this! Need to find a way to be able to wall mount it and I'll be good to go. Might have to drill tiny holes through my case to get it to work without taking the case off, but it shouldn't be too hard. I'll wait to read a review about it, but I definitely want this one.

Great looking out! I love the look and sleekness to it!

as much as i'd love to have this, if I'm spending that much on an accessory for this phone, i'd probably go with the media link.

This looks awesome but I don't think I'd pay that much for it. I'll wait till it's on sale.

HTC One S with NFC ?

Check this Video out !
What do you think ?

Looks pretty real to me, didn't know it had disabled nfc
Sent from my HTC One S using xda premium

highly doubt it's real since if it's there, HTC should've advertise it so they will get more praise for it.

What about the Samsung s2? That has NFC but not in the software.
Sent from my HTC One S using xda premium

Probably not. NFC can't get through the metal back cover. Since it can't, I doubt HTC put any NFC chips in the device.

That's why the top and bottom covers are plastic. NFC could get out, just like wifi and cell does.

Why would they put NFC in the device and not advertise it ? They know what they put into the phone as much as id like it to be real it must be fake
Sent from my HTC One S using xda premium

Be nice if this is true. Not too bothered about it now though as NFC isn't really a big feature here in the UK (yet.....) and can't see it being that popular/"the norm" for at least another year.
It has happened in other phones as well i.e. my last android phone, the Samsung galaxy spica i5700, it had a FM radio chip and also multi-touch, both weren't enabled with stock samsung software and weren't advertised at all or listed in the specs. either, thankfully, one great developer got the multi-touch working superbly.

Is the youtube video creator a xda member?

Have the tear downs not showed a NFC chip ?
Sent from my HTC One S using xda app-developers app

I have build an NFC Chip into my Computer to test the possibilities of NFC with my One X. So I thought, could it be that the One S also has an NFC Chip but disabled it so that the One X has an benefit against his little brother. Than I tried to port the NFC Drivers from the One X to the S and it works very well, but you can't disable it and there is no Android Beam yet. I try to cook an NFC enabled, RUU based Rom with working Android Beam. Download Link: Is coming soon!

Yup David111jr did have this up a few days ago....but the title of his thread didnt help to entice people to read :silly: When i showed this to a few other people, it was mentioned that it might be the cleaver use of Chrome to Phone. It would be awesome if it turned out to be true, but since people like to play nice tricks like this, we will have to wait and see. As for Leedroid, looking through his thread it looks like he might be busy with home things (after all awesome devs have home lives too ) . Hopefully a dev can either debunk or reproduce it. I will keep my fingers crossed for sure!!

Chrome to phone for sure. I call shenannigans.

I want to get a new phone, I curently have Inspire.

Hello dudes, I wanna say that I LOVE my phone, but in the same I think it's time for an upgrade so I am "hunting" for a new phone, and I have no clue what to get! I want an upgraded inspire lol...hehe Inspire 2nd gen but...it is not possible. So I am asking u guys: What should I get!? I am am outside of US, so I cannot get a contract with any carrier, that why I have to use ebay...but like I said...dno what to get!!! Any ideas!!?!?!?!
Sent from my Inspire 4G using xda app-developers app

There is a thread for this very issue. My question would be what about the Inspire do you think needs to upgraded? Faster processor, bigger screen, better camera?
For my next device, I want a faster processor, more ram, more storage, a front facing camera and a bigger screen without giving up anything that the Inspire provides. I haven't found it yet. I like the sexy heavy duty construction, this phone makes Samsungs feel like toys. The HOX has a higher end feel than the Sammies, but has no sd slot. Not interested in iOS or Windows. I have high hopes for the next round of Nexus devices but have to wait until there is more than just rumor to know if that's where I go next.
It's going to be about what you need, want and can afford. Without know more about that, I cannot make a recommendation.
Now I'm in a Pickle

I was loyal to Nokia before smartphones , even up to my windows 6. Then it became a few rounds of HTC. alas, I think I'm moving to Samsung in a month for the Note 2. It's super sexy in so many ways.
My 2 cents.

They are doing a quad core version of the one x that looks pretty nice. Still no expandable storage or removable battery though. The sgs3 looks pretty cool too. Users are happy with that one.

After two bad HTC Ones within 1 week, made the switch to a GS4. I'm so glad i did. I have a BodyGuardz Tempered Glass screen protector and a black speck case for it, plus a 32gb sd card, loving this phone.

Digitizer replacement is not working

just to let you guys know if it break you need to be careful of the part you buy. here are comparison photos of the digitizers. the could say either note 0.3 or espresso 10 and can be black or orange/yellow in color. the thing is they could be different. the ones i've opened needed the one circled in red, even us ebay sellers have the wrong one... im currently contacting one to see if he has the correct one. ill let you guys know.

Up to now all of them EXCEPT ONE are the wrong ones. On the picture it shows the flex and you can see the parallel lines on it... I did order it but don't recall what happened to it. I'll ask at work and let you know.

I know that the connector ends look different, I saw them myself, but it doesn't mean that the digitizer differs electrically, if you understand what I am trying to say. I have used a multimeter to test few of those, and found that the pins which are connected between themselves on one type of flex, are also connected on other flex too, even when the end looks differently. That is what I wanted to say

Oh, and the missing contact, it looks like it isn't used by the tablet
