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

Anybody got the update from AT&T yet? Weird thing is I was in a store last Thursday or Friday and for ****s and giggles I tried to update their display unit and what do you know it downloaded the update. Anybody else get lucky yet?

Move to Q&A.
Did you check the version after the update it may have been the last update and they just had not done the display models in the store?
Moderating from my One Xl

I didn't stick around for the entire update. It was over 600mb so I assumed it was the jelly bean. I've had my phone since September October of last year with no update. When was there an update recently?

There wasn't one "recently". I think Cadro is thinking the OTA you downloaded on the display model was for 2.20 which was released something like August. At least that was my thought. Especially for a store model, its possible that it was never updated.

maybe at&t corporate stores got a special early ota push

I don't have jelly bean yet. Im on 4.0.4,,, 2.20. I got that up date around August. The jelly bean update should be out soon, being the Rogers (Canada) just got the jelly bean update OTA. The US and Canada Htc one X have the same internals. Its just a matter of At&t and Htc finishing up. Most likely At&t takeing forever.. Ill post here if I ever get the update.

I used to compliment HTC about their timely updates and recommended this phone to many friends after they had bad Samsung experiences (myself included)...but the One X is starting to tarnish that view for me. First it was end of 2012...then end of December....then beginning of January...sigh.
I don't mean to blame HTC solely...or blame AT&T solely as I'm sure both are responsible. But the sad part is...even after this update the One X will be on 4.1.1....there's still 4.2 and 4.2.1 out there and 4.2.x brings plenty of noticeable improvements to the OS. 4.2.1 is kind of important if you like the month of December.
Is there any company left that is going to actually work at pleasing their customers with timely updates that fix security holes and bug issues? (Of course I say this as I hold a Galaxy Nexus in my hand....I just feel bad for my wife and her One X )

The latest Android is ALWAYS reserved for a brand new release phone. Exclusiveness for months has always been given.
No old phones get updates to the latest until months later. Samsung is not shipping 4.2 to GS3 and wont for months.
I remember my old Nexus One did not get the later updates until after other flagships sported it for 2-3 months.
End of 2012 is end of December 2012 and HTC shipped JB for One XL in early December. Any delays after that is 100% AT&T.
HTC shipped JB several weeks behind schedule but delivered in general in a fairly timely manner.

Don't get me wrong - I understand the company's philosophy on it and will concede that AT&T is most likely the hold up. I guess in my mind I didn't hold the international One X and US/Canada One X in the same category since they have different processors. But you're right....certain regions of the world did get JB by the end of 2012.
It's an odd switch for Samsung to release the JB update earlier to the SGS3 than HTC. Especially since the SGS 3 came out almost a month after the One X. All my point was = traditionally HTC has a good reputation of getting updates out before other manufacturers. Other manufacturers (in my opinion Samsung) have not had such a good reputation on updates. Just sad to see them start to loose that edge they used to have.
I'll be looking out for it as well. I know my wife's One X has some problems that I'm hoping will be fixed in the JB update.

HTC has bowed down to att for everything about this phone. They have failed their consumers.

I am not talking about the international one x. I am talking about one xl's which are the same phone as AT&T one x.
Evita phones which are identicle to AT&T one x got jb in early December.

Every floor model I've looked at was either 1.73 or 1.85 so 100% chance it was the 2.20 update

ICS for Galaxy devices delayed?

So back in December, Samsung stated that ICS would be available for Galaxy devices in Q1 2012 (http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2397850,00.asp - among other sources).
Someone asked on Facebook when the update for the Galaxy Nexus S was coming and Samsung stated that "ICS updates for Galaxy devices will be available in early Q2." (https://www.facebook.com/samsungmobilecanada/posts/10150560045396050)...
Idk, that may be a bit different because the Nexus S is in the original Galaxy S family. Those are going to be updated after all the Galaxy S2 devices. They actually weren't even going to release the update for those phones initially.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium
Some rumors said march first, which would be q1 and not going to happen. Some leaked document i saw said april which would be early q2. God knows what they are doing over there. I want aosp/cm9 anyway, but if they release ics it might help get us closer.
I am so sick of this too.....
From now on I am only getting Nexus Devices
I'm sick of it too, but used to it. They just released official Gingerbread for the Captivate (my previous phone) a few weeks ago after XDA users had been running leaked versions for several months. But the devs here on XDA already have (as I understand it) some pretty kickass ICS roms available for the Captivate.
Don't hold your breath waiting for AT&T/Samsung. We'll have ICS here on XDA long before they make it officially available (but...without a secure element we won't be able to use Google Wallet--not sure how they're going to solve that one...re-issued sim cards maybe?)
Sounds like it's all Galaxy devices:
https://www.facebook.com/samsungmobilecanada/posts/10150560045396050
That being said, I wasn't holding my breath either for an official release but figured when one came it might help speed up some things here on XDA or for the CM guys.
And yeah, I was running ICS on my Cappy for a couple months before it died (needed a new mobo so the cost of upgrading to the SGS II LTE was actually cheaper than the repair on my Cappy - go figure)... the official Samsung/Rogers upgrade cycle on the Cappy was horrendous as well, bought it with Froyo, an hour later had CM7 on it, and it wasn't long afte they updated officially to GB that I was running TeamHacksung ICS alpha builds on it.
We'll be lucky to get official ICS before Jellybean is released
That is Samsung mobile Canada stating that. So may be different for us in the states. But what I think is funny is the vivid is getting the update soon, and if I'm not wrong both phones came out on the same day. So no blaming this on the carrier this time. Damn Sammy LOL.

True, it is Samsung Mobile Canada - I wasn't expecting us (or the US) to get it in Q1 anyways (officially) as the original statement I believe was for the international versions of the Galaxy S II/Note. Still, was hoping that the international stock rom would help jump/fix kinks some of the developers here are trying to overcome.
I'm in Canada, so I can only hope

To clarify, they only said the international versions of the S II and the Note would get it in Q1. The others that were announced to get ICS have never been given a time frame, other than that they would follow those two.
There seems to be a lot of confusion on that point.

Yes, I do understand that fully. Not holding my breath that the international version will be rolling out any time soon either.
Looking into the dev forum there are two promising roms one in alpha 1 with basic functions working and another one that the mods and the dev keep fighting over is a lot further along but I think was taken down again :-(. I'm guessing we have about a month maybe a bit more before we have some awesome functioning ics rom's
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using XDA App
Well Q1 is still not done with, we got a whole month for them to hopefully release.
technicalities... Huge companies always drag there feet, I almost guarantee the skyrocket dev community will have ics before everyone else
ICS is ready for deployment, Samsung is waiting for approval from Google.

He's probably right, if the galaxy nexus has it, with an SOC which isn't so dissimilar to ours, they're probably sitting on it. I was also over in the t989 forum and it was stated the kang Juggernaut devs got an ics samsung release leak but are sitting on it as well. If they have it, guarantee for our phones its done
I'm not doubting if someone can back it up but thats the dudes first post not very reputable

AT&T Release Date???

Does anyone know when the HTC One X will be released for AT&T? Are the rumors for the chip production delay true??
Edit: May 6th is the confirmed date.
28nm high power processes are definitely down. The low power process may not be, we're not sure.
I thought AT&T is getting One X not XL...
I thought they were all the same phones anyway. Aside from the chip and the Storage.
I think we're expecting a summer release, not april.

Didn't HTC originally announce that this phone would be on sale within 60 days (from when they announced it) ?
Just to help clear up any confusion for anyone who didn't know this already,
The One X is the quad core version. The quad core processor is incompatible with LTE (being released as an ATT exclusive means that att will likely only carry the XL)
The One XL has the dual core because the dual core processor IS compatible with LTE . Also, from what I've heard, the dual core might actually be a better processor than the quad core anyway.
I think you guys already knew most of that though
@shorty
yes, you are correct. The projected window is within 60 days of announcement.
The phone has already passed through FCC, it's on it's way.
cant decide is i should switch to att. sprint 3g service is eh, sad that sprints lte rollout doesnt include los angeles ;(...... decisions decisions
I am really hoping a release date is announced soon. I went out and got a skyrocket under upgrade and now I want to return it (within my 30 days) so that I can pick up this phone. It all depends on the release date though. If it ends up being summer then I'm not gonna wait that long.
A general estimate is about late April to early May for the release.
My guess is since the rest of the word starts to sell these on April 5th and Sprint/HTC is holding an even April 4th... we will hear about a release in the next week or two about when AT&T will release it.
april 12th http://www.releasedates.co/product/htc-edge-release-date
I'd take that sites info with a grain of salt most definitely. I don't see it being legit. I hope so though.
It's definitely not legit. Look at how much storage it says it has. 32GB? Now, we know the AT&T version will only have 16GB of storage.

You're right. It will have only 16GB, like the Rogers unit, which is what I'm waiting for. No announcement yet, and I'm checking every day.

Other than that there's no way in God's name that I'm waiting until freaking May for a phone. Galaxy S II Skyrocket HD should be out by then and I'd pick that up before that.

Imho, anytime a phone 1 year old or less has to wait 6+ months for a new Android OS upgrade, the OEM is failing to live up to Google and more importantly, the customers, standards.
The number of casual users who won't even recognize the fact that their phone upgraded from 2.3 to 4.0 is the number two reason these companies don't push hard to keep their phones up to date. With the number one reason being money. It's more profitable to lock out 1 year old phones from staying up to date, making that new device running the new version of Android more enticing and a possible sale from people who fall for gimmicky sales tactics.
Realistically Google wants every phone to be on ICS right now. At least, any phone that has the hardware to run it. Which in all honesty, is any mid range phone from 2010 and up. Certainly a flagship 2011 phone should be quite capable of running ICS, don't you think? So whats the only other possible explanation? See paragraph 2 and it'll be easily understood.

While is sucks that it takes so long to get an ICS update (even though I sold my Thunderbolt and got a Bionic...not that it will get official ICS any sooner), I do understand where the OEMs (and the carriers) are coming from...there's really no money in updating obsolete phones.
Sorry I didn't post a link, my bad. Saw the tweet I got and was in a rush. Wish it was ICS update :S...

It's really nothing to get excited about, I unrooted, flashed back to stock, installed the leaked update and found...... nothing but a few bug fixes, etc. It had no effect on my use of my T'bolt which is now re-rooted and back to running Thunderstick Bareback which works for me and may or may not work for you.

ummmmm....our phones are obsolete????? Just because phones came out after ours doesn't mean it's obsolete. In fact any other phone on Verizon right now (as far as specs, not release date) is a downgrade.
At the current rate of new phone introduction "Hopelessly Obsolete" means any phone that's been out a week!

[Q] Legitimate Jellybean?

Has anyone heard or seen legitimate proof that Jellybean will be coming to our phones in an OTA update? I'm with Rogers, not AT&T but the phones are interchangeable.
I know that all Google Nexus products kind of have first dibs on Jellybean but heard that the GS3 will be receiving it also. Asking my local Rogers employees is useless and scanning the internet is only reminding me that I can root and ROM it, something I've done before but had too many complications with to bother.
Anyone got any leads? Appreciate it.
Sent from my SGH-I727R using xda app-developers app
Nothing legitimate, only rumor. Initially it was Q4,but that seems increasingly unlikely as the GS3 will get it before we do.
I'm guessing, honestly, that they're watching CM progress/support. I know other companies do that to determine if they will release something for a given device. Since we still have official support there, odds may be better; but really at this point Samsung is the only one that knows for sure.

Fat chance of the SR getting it before March. The AT&T S3 might not even get it until January.
Stock ICS on my S3
I was curious about this as well, But mostly for my GS III. Today while visiting with the AT&T Rep that I have been dealing with ONLY for the last 10 years, she confirmed to me that the SR will be getting the official JB update, but not to look for it available OTA until around mid Q2 2013 to early Q3.
Just as liquidzoo stated because of the activity for the skyrocket, and it is still having NEW sales AT&T has valued it in their support. JB of course will most likely be the LAST update that is handed down from AT&T for the SR. The S III is likely to get it's last update at JB as well. It was some good news, but even better she bought me lunch too.
Some times it pays to be loyal to a single rep, instead of just taking which ever is available. I wont let anyone else handle my account with AT&T aside of her.

[Q] Phone upgrades

So, my upgrade is still a year out. I'm currently on an iPhone 4, but I'm thinking about going with an Android device for my next phone. I'm on VZW. My friend keeps telling me to get a Motorola X, but if that comes out May of this year, will there be something more "worth it" come March of next year? Will the Motorola X even get a VZW flavor? What do you guys think?
I don't think it's really possible to know what will be on the market a year or so from now. I'd just wait and see.

Definitely wait, there will be some amazing new developments a year from now.
