Football has uploaded the first 4.1.1 ROM for the one X .
Have a look and get the first impressions over here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1601543
Maybe our devs would port this rom to the XL?
Obviously, I didnt do anything over there, is purely Football work
PLEASE, DO NOT FLASH IT IF YOU HAVE ONE XL \ AT&T VERSION
They are completely different phones with only a few things in common, despite their names.
A One S or Evo LTE leak would be much more probable to be ported over here than that ROM.

Ok,
So I guess that the best thing to do right now is just wait
Reading this it looks like they need to upgrade their hboot to run the ROM
I'm hoping that this won't be the case for our phone when we do get our jb update

Few things i noticed that i really like:
1. No more keys on the keyboard. Thank god. Keyboard sucks in ICS. I switched to shiftkey because of it.
2. Everything in settings looks great. The new battery usage and task manager look wonderful
3. Gallery is a lot more useful now. You can see cloud pictures.
I didn't notice it being project butter fast though. But maybe it's hard to see it on video.
Edit: minor thing that i really like is the full date in the notification bar (including day).
hopefully att doesnt remove the radio and flashlight apps. im wondering what we will be using to activate google now

I read in one of his threads that he successfully ran a Tegra 2.17 ruu on his One XL. It was in a thread I read yesterday I think. He also has said, I believe, that he has ported roms from the Tegra to use in his Nocturnal roms. I could be totally wrong but that's what my memory is telling me.

As we all know, development & Support for our One XL is very poor compared to other phones like the One X Tegra, One S, EVO LTE and GS3.
What i have been doing in the past were how to videos and "Balanced" rom review videos for other devices and PC's as well. I would like to do more One XL videos and try to get it a little more popular and see what happens. Would you guys be interested in this? If so, let me know what kind of videos i could do for us, I'm open to Rom reviews, how to videos, and accessories videos.
I know I'm a developer but I also do enjoy using this phone and would love to see more attention brought to it before the One X+ kills it off for good.
I will be posting videos on the team nocturnal channel. http://YouTube.com/TeamNocturnalTV
Post the topics for the videos you would like to see me do

Start with rom reviews. You got half a dozen roms to keep you busy. :thumbup:
Accessories thread is by far the slowest part of our forums so maybe continue there with some more reviews.
(although noobs don't bother with stickies, especially on the mobile app) create a sticky thread reviewing roms, tweaks, homescreens, and hell, fookin quadrant scores with certain roms. The few devs here create awesome roms.
I've rooted my buddies gs3, and he can't find a stable/feature rich Rom to save his life

Wow man that's really awesome of you! Do some reviews of ROM's like Dev1's ICS vs Dev2's ICS. Comparisons, some cool themes you find, tutorials on how to edit the clock, lockscreen, etc. on different roms, stuff like that.
Once again the community appreciates your help!
keep the ideas coming and ill do the videos. Its much more relaxing then developing lol. I did a Miui install video last night and will do a full review tomorrow since ive had 2 days to test it by then.

The one thing I would stay away from that was mentioned was side by side, who's is better reviews. They are all hard work and it then becomes overly opinionated and can actually decrease the motivation of the "losing" devs. Your reviews will be great, and thanks for offering your time:beer:

With that being said, i want to do more how to videos because i don't enough of those here.
As far as creating a rom of your own, read read read is all i can say, that is how i started and ask questions and use Google. But never ever use anyone's work no matter how small you think the file may be. Ive seen a few people here and there doing that and its not cool at all. that's a good way to get a bad rep off the bat.

Thanks man love the keyboard

U could try extracting HTC_IME.apk out of a sense rom.
Step 1- MAKE A BACKUP, and extract the HTC_IME.apk from any sense rom.
Step 2- dl any keyboard from the market, "temporarily", and switch to it, so that your not running the system keyboard.
Step 3- place the HTC_IME.apk into system/app using root explorer.
Step 4- in a text field long press, untill a message pops up that will give the option for input method. Pick the htc keyboard.
Step 5- if that doesnt work, try deleting the system keyboard in system/app.
Ive never tried this, so dont know if it will work. But its a good start. Good luck.

Just switched from ViperXL to CM10 and as much as I love CM, I'm not sure I can stick it out without the Sense Keyboard... it was just so good. I've been running CM on at least 2 devices for the past 18 months or so, but that Sense keyboard is just the best keyboard I've ever used.

They did announce that feature pack update, plus on release the device was given its 2GB of ram just for future support of new android versions.
My guess is it will get 4.2.1 official, but that will be the end of OTA. I have a feeling though CM and AOSP roms will be around for a while. Too many people have the US models of the GS3's, and due to the fact MOST of the code is similar between devices, it should not be hard to keep them all going as long as theres someone who cares to work on them.

you couldnt be any more wrong.
The development hasn't stop just slowed down. There are 4 new ports and some of the older roms have moved on to 4.2(mainly CM,liquid smooth and slim bean). The other roms are still being updated. There is also a new ROM based on 4.2 called Pure Google. Team Baked is working on a 4.2 based ROM.

About the swipe typing..don't know how far you guys are in porting 4.2 to this device...or even if it is possible
Cus I tried to install the apk on a 4.1 ROM and sometimes it works, but most of the time you just see the line but no letters are selected :/
So, is there a chance to see 4.2 on this device or at least somehow a working swype apk for 4.1?
But so far I gotta thank you developers too for the great selection of JB ROMs and also the other versions too
And also I think its just awesome that you could get CM, AOKP and paranoid working in one single ROM

Hey guys, I'll try to make this brief. I'm not very good with Android, so I apologize in advance for my ignorance.
A few months ago, I accidentally let my phone update to 2.2, so I had to wait a while to for a bootloader/root method. A bootloader unlock came first, so I had to do that, but I never ended up installing a custom ROM.
Now, I'm really feeling I need one, but I have no idea where to start. There are just so many. I would like something as close to vanilla android as possible, and I don't necessarily want to be on the bleeding edge.
To be honest, I don't know as much about Android as I would like to, and I guess I want something that "just works."
Can anyone help me out here?
Sent from my HTC One XL using xda premium
Have a look in the Original Android Development section, that's where you'll find the "vanilla" or AOSP stuff. Asking which ROM is best is against the rules here so I'm not going to suggest anything, other than saying they're pretty much all stable and suitable as a daily driver. It comes down to what you personally like, flash a few and see what works best for you.
Sent from my One XL using XDA Premium
There's even a few stock ones with all the att crap removed
Sent from my HTC One XL using xda app-developers app
Figure out what features you want or don't want, then just look through the ROM threads to see which ones look good to you. Pick a couple, flash them and try them out.
Its not clear how much you know or don't now about how Android works, and the various features. If you really don't understand the terminology used in the ROM threads, just start reading up by searching on XDA or Google, and figure them out.
If you don't know what the features are, and what they mean, then you don't need a custom ROM. Also, nobody can choose a ROM for you, as everybody has different preferences and uses their phones differently. That's why its best to do some research, so you can make an educated choice on your own.
There are some good "close to stock" ROMS out there, I use one myself. Just remember that if you use an AOSP ROM you *may* also have to downgrade some firmware.
Check very closely with each ROM you try and follow the instructions closely. A bad ROM install is unlikely to brick you but doing it right can avoid a lot of headaches.

No such thing as "standard" because everybody likes different things. Its like asking if there is a "standard" favorite color.
There are certainly "popular" ROMs. And determining which those are, is pretty easy without making a thread like this. And just because a ROM is popular, does not mean it will be the best choice for you. Again, everybody uses their phone differently and has different preferences. I've had instances in the past, where a lesser know ROM worked much better for me than what "everyone else" seemed to be using.
Sifting through the ROMs is not as daunting as it might appear. Especially if you use my index. You said you wanted vanilla Android, so that excludes the Sense ROMs. Decide whether you want Android 4.1 or 4.2. Exclude the versions of ROMs that have been superceded, or haven't been updated or supported for a while (older ROMs are not necessarily bad, but probably should not be your first choice if you are just getting started flashing ROMs). The number drops to the point where its not that hard to read the threads and see what you like, and pick out a couple to try.
The best way to find a good ROM is process of elimination like red point said. Sense vs aosp. ICS vs jb (4.1 vs. 4.2). And then of course the features. If there was the best ROM, everyone's signature would probably be you the same. But this is not the case.
I look for features (including bugs), screenshots, and then comments. If it looks good test it out for a day or two. If I like it l, keep it. If not, keep going.

Actually, ICS is 4.0.
4.1 is Jellybean
and 4.2 is um. . . Jellybeanier
But yeah, ICS is a choice for some, also. Although I think most XDA folks have moved to JB.

When I said 4.1 vs. 4.2 I was putting it beside the jb on purpose. Some people like 4.1 while others like 4.2...

I think you mean 4.1 is more stable than 4.2 roms. Saying you like 4.1 more is kind of stupid because 4.2 just adds more features than 4.1 roms it's just a newer version of Android.

since 4.2 exists only for aosp on the evita and many people prefer sense, it makes perfect sense for some to like 4.1 over 4.2
On a side not. ive run a couple 4.2 roms that are currently stable.
Ya lot of them say stable but I do see a lot of comments saying there are issues with their voltage and lock screens

so dont overclock lol.
I have a belief that instability is in direct relation to ignorance.
I've run a few 4.2 roms that are perfectly stable. Like exad said, instability can be a symptom of ignorance. Currently running Carbon underclocked to 1242mhz and it's perfectly stable.

I'm doing 1.5 and I still get stability and great battery. Tries sense (viper and hatka) for the past few days, but it wasn't for me.

Sir that is not the case. Some people may not like the way Google made little changes int 4.1.1. For example, if you are familiar with mIRC, some people sitll use 6.30, even though there is a 7.31. I know that is a bad example since it doesn't apply here, but I hope you get my analogy.

And that could be user settings. I bet if people leave settings at default or stock, no one will have issues. Or maybe it is certain apps that make small (non-rooted) changes to their phones. You never know the whole story, because a lot of people don't tell.
