Telus HTC One X on Rogers? - AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL

I'm on Rogers and I rather buy the Telus version of the HTC One X because it comes in a charcoal colour. However, can someone tell me if I can unlock the phone with ease and use it on Rogers? Are there any custom roms available to flash on Telus' HTC One X so that I can get better performance and eliminate the carrier branding on the phone?

Other than the colour, electronically, the phones are identical.
There are a plethora of threads to read here to get yourself rooted and using custom ROMs. That being said; the TELUS ROM unlike Rogers has no carrier specific branding or software on it except for 1, unobstructed application.

Thanks for the information. Is there a free way to unlock the phone? Do you have any suggestions on what is the best way to unlock the phone?

there are plenty of unlocking services on ebay for less than $10.
I'm not aware of a free way of SIM-unlocking like there was on the Desire Z/G2.
I also have a dedicated guide on the Telus HOX in my signature as well if you want a step-by-step on unlocking the bootloader and getting custom roms on your Telus variant.

Can you confirm whether I can just drop by any Telus store and buy the HOX off contract without any hassles? What is the lowest price off contract? Is it better to buy from FS/BB or the Telus store?
Which Tom are you using? Is the Cyanogen 10 Nightly build compatible with this version of the One X? I think it's Te international version of the HOX that is compatible, but I would like to know.

If it says AT&T Rogers Telstra HTC One X it basicly means our phone. I belive we do have a Cm10 build by h8. Personally I got my One X from Ebay which is a fair bit cheaper and as long as it's a non AT&T you don't need to worry at ALL about rooting the phone

If you have the money, going to the Telus store is your best bet. If you go to FS/BB or any other 3rd party, they run heavy on commission so they may pressure you into signing a new contract. Telus stores aren't as heavy and I have bought many phones off contract by simply asking them. It will still be locked, though you can ask them to unlock it for you since you're not getting it subsidized.
I am running CleanROM 4.5 Final and I love it. Very stable and very good on battery. I tried NT and others, but the stock look of Sense 4.0 is very appealing to me. There is a version of CM10 that is available here. I'm not a fan of nightlies so I don't use it personally.

What's wrong with the nightlies? Is it not stable? If I go with CM10, then I'll lose Sense right? If so, it's not a big deal for me. I want as close to ICS/Jelly Bean as possible. I'd go with the Galaxy Nexus if it wasn't for the fact that it doesn't have LTE.
Are you sure Telus will even consider unlocking the phone for me if I buy it off contract? I have a feeling they won't.

You can always ask. Some of the associates there are not so bright. Example, the guy who gave me my HOX didn't know a single thing about it. Pretty sure I heard his manager fire him on my way out.
The nightlies is just a personal opinion. Never used them so I can't comment on them, but there's something about nightly releases that doesnt sit well with me.

Difference between Canadian and AT&T One X

So after reading the Engadget review of the One X, I've become intrigued with the differences between the Canadian and AT&T versions of the One X. Searched and didn't see anything referencing this directly. The article says LTE should work fine on both AT&T and Canuck networks.
So, besides saying HTC at the top instead of AT&T and I suppose having Rogers bloatware instead of the usual AT&T crap, is there any other difference?
http://www.engadget.com/2012/05/01/htc-one-x-for-att-review/
One big difference is the rogers has the ability to toggle lte off which is not the case with the at&t version

The moment we have a ROM granting that functionality, I am flashing. I do not live in an LTE area
First world problems....
Also, another difference is the ability to tether freely. Not that I use this feature. However, it would be nice.
I believe the AT&T model lacks the ability of a LTE on/off toggle, tethering and a few optings in the camera like time lapse (I think there might be one othere, not sure though).
I think most things we will be able to rip out of the International model or the Rogers model and cram them into the AT&T version. Also, Im sure custom roms will add all of these features back in.

Yes, it will, I have a Rogers One X and used the micro sim from the AT&T One X in it. But the trick is getting them to add the LTE data plan to your account. If you already have an AT&T branded LTE device, then you shouldn't have a problem. But good luck getting them to add an LTE data plan to your account if you don't. They insist on using IMEI numbers now to determine which data plans you can add to the account. Your best bet is to borrow or buy a cheap LTE AT&T phone, get your data plan switched to an LTE one, get a micro sim, get them to activate it on your non-micro sim device ,and then switch the micro SIM to your Rogers One X.
It is possible, just a PITA.

The AT&T version of the One X has a snapdragon dual core processor as opposed to the international version that has the Nvidia Tegra quad core processor. This is due to the Tegra processor not being compatible with LTE .http://www.att.com/onex/
Does anyone know if the external measurements of the two One X's are the same?
Thanks guys

Between the LTE ones yes. International and LTE ones are different
Both the Canadian(Rogers) One X and US(AT&T) One X are the Same Device other than the sofware running on it, and the lithographed branding under the glass at the top (one say's htc, the other AT&T printed backwards on the underside of the glass)
Both are the PJ8310000
If there was a variation in the hardware one would have a different digit in this number
like the Telus DHD and Inspire 4G for example
both same device, different housing (for branding) <- why it got the different number
Telus DHD was PD9814000 and the Inspire 4G was PD9812000 (International was PD9810000)
THE CANADIAN AND U.S. ONE X'S ARE THE EXACT SAME DEVICE.
THEY ARE INTERNATIONALLY KNOWN AS THE 'ONE XL'
THE ONLY THING DIFFERENT IS THE SOFTWARE ON IT.
(that includes software customization, rf channel configs, dz data, etc...)

when you guy's get root, you'll be able to swap the services.jar, services.apk and get the same thing for yourselves.
ps: other than the boot/down annimations - being pointed to by ../CID/default.xml, the 'scene' addidion/layout in ../MNS/default.xml (both the customize folder), and carrier apps, the rogers rom is vanilla.
I'm not familiar with the Rogers software. I'm in the US and eyeing a Rogers version, if I were to get one from say Negri, does it have FREE wifi hotspot?
Not in an LTE area

From what I have seen, when you are not in an LTE area the LTE is disabled and doesn't kill your battery. It's still be nice to have a toggle though.
For tether, why not just root and use WiFi Tether?

Hi XDA members n mods and devs! hehe
so I have a really disturbing question and I want to be very2 careful when I buy The HTC one X
my biggest question is how to know if the HOX is AT&T or International version? does it have some kind of logo or something?
second does the AT&T and International version have differences in terms of internal memory?
thanks and please reply quickly? I'm planning to buy this phone next week.^^

AT&T version is dual core, international is quad core. The AT&T version has 16 gigs of storage whereas the international version has 32.
Do you want a AT&T One X in particular or just a Evita from North America?
Rogers, Telus and such all have the same phone but have less restrictions.
Also you could buy an Evita from many places in the world but you need to take care with what LTE frequencies it supports. If you are in NA you should buy a NA phone.

System Settings > about phone > hardware information
Should say at the top Dual Core or Quad Core. Dual Core is the AT&T, Rogers, Telstra One XL.
This post was created and transmitted completely in analog.

Which would you choose?

If you were going to buy outright and unlocked, which version of the one x would you buy?
I know that the AT&T version of the phone had some better benchmark results along with better battery life results, but I know that can be adjusted through rom/kernel, etc.
So which would you buy outright?
The international version (Im not in an LTE market) or the ATT version?
The AT&T version without a doubt. That is, if the 16gb of storage is not an issue.
i bought outright, and i got the at&t one
would opt for the Rogers

Probably this. It has the HTC branding instead of AT&T... and it also has the S4 processor which has been proven to be at least on par with Tegra3 or better. Its also been proven to be better at battery life.
Also, no locked bootloader.
The international versions has had some graphical bugs and other issues, probably related to the Tegra drivers. Some folks over in the "other" forum are saying not to expect a fix from Nvidia any time soon on this.
Also, what if they end up launching LTE in your areas sometime soon? Could be a cause for regret.
The additional storage, and probable better dev support are the only real benefits of the international version, IMO.
AT&T/HTC kept the bootloader on the Vivid locked for about a month after that phone's release. I'm not worried about it, as I think a similar thing will happen with the One X.
Yeah I just sent my 32Gb baby back for a refund due to flickering getting worse n worse. I dont know if I can live with 9.9gb but I am gonna try because I loved the phone but couldnt deal with the flickering once it got bad.
The Rogers XL. In fact, I just snagged one.
Beamed from my Rogers HTC One XL
Is there a site we can order the rogers one X from or do we just have to find us a canadian friend or hope ebay has one?
Oh no locked boot loader but it will be unlocked in a month?? Oh no the world is over smh
I bought mine outright , had a 'review unit' for a week prior. Best update, was worth the $704 (Ontario HST Included) I spent on it.
.. delegated by Nigerian princes
I'd pick the AT&T version, even if not just for LTE.

T-Mobile HTC One S in Black instead of Gradient Blue?

Has anybody heard any rumors that T-Mobile might get the black version of the HTC One S? It looks much better IMO and I'm tempted to wait rather than buy the gradient blue version right now.
Yes, several people have heard from T-Mobile reps that it is coming in June. That is subject to change, of course. My T-Mobile rep told me it is coming, but did not mention a date.

There is no T-Mobile branded HTC One S outside of the one carried by T-Mobile USA. When someone says the T-Mobile HTC One S, they obviously mean the T-Mobile USA version as the only other version of the phone is the international version (unbranded). I don't see how this could be confusing.

The T-Mobile USA phone actually has T-Mobile's logo on the front, not HTC's. It also has a different case with a separate piece on the bottom of the phone. It's a different model than the global version. That's what I meant. I should have said there are only two models, the T-Mobile USA model, and the International/EU model.

All HTC smart phones are included if they are running Android. T-Mobile just managed to get a bunch of One S's in the door before the date that the hold started; all new shipments are being held at customs.

Also I saw yesterday that Telus is selling what seems to be the T-mobile US One S without the T-mobile branding. In other words, the blue/gray version with the extra cover piece at the bottom. Unfortunately, doesn't look like they will have the black for a while.
It'll be coming some time in June.

What is that seperate piece on the bottom for? The Canadian versions (Bell/Telus/Virgin/Fido) have it too. I prefer the cleaner look of the international version.
It looks slightly off colour compared to the rest of the phone. Stood out like a sore thumb to me.

INTERNATIONAL ONE X ON AT&T dumb phone data?

So i'm intending to buy an htc one X international edition to use on at&t. I was wondering if i could use that phone on the $10 unlimited dumb phone data plan? I have been doing it with various unlocked phones, including tmobile galaxy s 1, and tmobile galaxy s2. I was just wondering if the Htc one x international, and the At&t edition had the same IMEI? Also for anyone who has tried, does it pull hspa+? according to gsmarena it should, but i just want to double check.

First off, this should be in the international forums since you are talking about that device. This isn't a forum devoted to AT&T, its to the AT&T HTC One X, which you are not purchasing.
Secondly, no, they do not have the same IMEI since they are completely different devices.
And thirdly, I would expect it to pull HSPA+ since I believe it is marketed that way.
Thanks a ton. and sorry for posting in the wrong forum.

International buyers beware!!!

Hi,
Now, if you are an international buyer and you thinking of getting the AT&T HOX, here is some information you should be aware of:
1. Do not buy manufacturer refurbished. Apparently AT&T are relocking those phones and you cannot get the unlock codes anywhere. Period! I have the HOX and all I can do is stare at it since an unlock code is not available.
I had started another thread on the same here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1841609
2. Devs are working on a method here:

Thanks for the heads up!
I dont get what this thread is even really about.
AT&T One X is locked. That is well known.
Why would international buyers be interested in refurbed AT&T stock versus refurb other stock?
The exact same applies for importing brand new stock.
I doubt the typical international user is at all interested in buying AT&T stock new or old. They would be typically buying local stock or from markets known to be open, eg everything else.
AT&T new = locked
AT&T old = locked
That is well known through the other million threads and blogs about it, how is this thread news to anyone? If they didnt find the other million posts and blogs, they wont find this one either...
This thread offers no new info its just a rehash on the fact AT&T One X is locked.
I think he is trying to say that there is no IMEI unlock for AT&T refurbished One X?

why an international user would buy a US branded phone and want to unlock it rather than buying an unlocked model is what I'm struggling with.
Hmmm comparing with international One X, the ATT branded One X is cheaper I guess..

Yeah the at&t is a lot cheaper. Plus for me, benches matter a lot. The quad international version is on the same level as the dual s4 version. And the s4 actually beats the quad in some benches....

The phone known as the AT&T One X is sold international as the HTC One XL in Germany, Hong Kong, Singapore, Australia, Canada and possibly other markets. In Germany and Australia it actually has 32gb internal storage instead of 16gb.
All of this is already in many reviews, blogs, XDA threads and plastered all over the net.
Users would just buy the phone from those markets if they want an unlocked phone.
The AT&T version being locked and only having 16gb internal storage makes sense to why you might find it cheaper.
It is not news that AT&T One X is locked, it has been very widely reported.
If a user confuses what an International One X, AT&T One X or a HTC One XL is they have not done anywhere near enough research to be importing or unlocking phones.
One more thread in XDA is not going to help those foolish enough to have clearly not done their homework on what they are buying.
It's like the users that come in weekly crying because they tried to flash ROM's for the international One X on to their One XL after the huge amounts of warnings not to do that. It's sad that people have destroyed their expensive phone but they are doing it to themselves by being lazy and not reading first.
