I used to own the nexus one and finally thought that this would be a worthy replacement but there does not seem such a buzz about this phone. I may be mistaken but devs of such quality roms like axura changing device? Is this phone.doomed after such a short time?
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA Premium App
Somebody overtook Axura and is now continuing the rom. The phone isn't doomed. Development just takes time and its already on the latest. Not many changes need to be done to the phone.
A lot of roms on other phones are the same thing but themed.

we've got all the latest and greatest ROM here already
so, not sure what else you are looking for that is not here, and or allowed in XDA
You knew this question was going to come. Now that 4.1 has been announced, when are we getting ours?
This will take a longer time for sure, as HTC is still busy to release ICS
Jellybean dev kits are supposed to be released mid july. At least that's what this source says: http://www.foxnews.com/scitech/2012/06/27/google-announces-android-41-jelly-bean/
But it may be a while before we get a working ROM.
Given the time it took the CM team to release CM9 RC1, I'd say 6 months!

While ICS is quite nice, it is hard not to want the latest, greatest thing on our devices Still, at least the Nexus 7 is available to fulfil the JB goodness until it's available. That may end up replacing my Nook Color which hasn't been used in a month since it's ac adapter gave up the ghost.
HTC says they "don't yet have an announcement" for Jelly Bean on existing devices.
... I can't post a link because <10 posts, but there is an article on pocket-lint.com
That will only lead to an anemic SDK ROM. sure it will show us the cool new features, but I wouldn't expect much. I wonder how long it takes to hit AOSP

Q1 or Q2 next year would be my guess

Since i'm assuming jellybean isn't as big of a change internally as ICS was from gingerbread it'll be a shorter wait. Still I wouldn't expect anything shorter than like Oct of this year.

Actually most of the changes are internal. I think project butter is a big internal change. Although the One S is already very smooth, squeezing more performance out of the S4 is a welcomed thing
How about this?

Google doesn't care
I remember reading recently that Google knows about fragmentation but isn't worried about it. Now that I'm tempted to buy a media device to have the latest and greatest software, I can see how fragmentation can actually work for Google because now more and more people will look to buy nexus devices.
the main reason i got a HTC phone is because unlike Samsung's strange choice in hardware it dosnt take 5 months to port a fast stable release from the MOD team unlike HTC
lets hope this takes off !
the one X got already a port

I figured after source for 4.03 was released we would be seeing all kinds of activity in the development section. For the first 4-5 days after source I thought it was just the calm before the storm, now I'm getting the feeling the phone is just basically dead in the water. Bummer.
Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk 2
Dead? No not yet. But unless we figure out root for the new firmware and get s-off it will be dead. If one of the devs breaks their phone and gets one on the 2.20 firmware as a replacement then they're out of business.
What happened to all the "man, once source is released development is really gonna takeoff and we'll see this device's full potential"? Lol

Because they released the older source and most of the devs are already moving there roms to the 2.23 base and HTC has not dropped the source for it.

This phone is getting ready to go bye bye real quick. I bought it the first day available and have not complained about development for it one single time, but I am officially tired of waiting for this or for that to be released before we can really see roms/kernels take off. The problem is there isn't much out there to jump to.

I am new to android but I did not notice any difference between stock and custom roms. Even the changelogs are filled with "updated all apps" which is not something that requires big knowledge to do

Definitely not dead yet. I developed for about a year over on the Inspire/DHD, and just moved here recently. We really are waiting for a source drop on the new 4.0.4, as 4.0.3 is now basically 'EOL' so to speak.
But. Like I said, expect to see a lot of work coming in the future, at least from Me. Team Impulse is on the way, and we'll be bringing some great work here.

Be patient man, this phone is pretty new, I came up from the Amaze forums and look how long it took for s-off to happen and how long it took development to start rolling. Just give it time, or if you're not willing to wait do it yourself
obvious troll is obvious.
I stand by my statement regarding us being in deep poopy unless we get s-off or sanctioned boot loader unlock.

I think you're probably right. I haven't seen anything really new. I think interest in this phone is waning more and more everyday. Too bad. Its really an excellent phone, but I think the next big release will push it farther down the ladder.
For what its worth, the gs3 isnt too much newer than the OneX.. my buddy bought one and begged me to root it, and I was trolling their forums for roms and mods and couldn't really find anything better than what our devs have been pooping out. Some of the 4.0.4 ROMs are awesome, and that's without source? I see development kickin ass for this phone so far. The devs are making everything happen exactly how I want the phone to run. I mean seriously, have you flashed rohans AOKP alongside the beastmode kernal? Used team nocturnals blazing roms with coredroid and themed? Checked out scotts cleanroms? Over clocked to 2.1 ghz and be be blazing fast? What more do you need lol. If i was ballin' i would donate thousands of dollars to these devs just for what they've done so far with the little resources HTC screwed them with. But at the same time, who the hell am I to voice an opinion Haha.

I am actually pretty pleased with the roms here I am patiently waiting for cm10 to work :good:
I came from metro pcs and the development there is slower then here but learned to wait and know devlepoment isnt easy. I mean why don't you start making roms yourself so you can make it the way you like
This thread needs to be deleted, its disrespectful towards our hard working devs and discourages new devs with the lack of appreciation

I appreciate the hell out of our devs. My beef is with htc and at&t. But I think I've always been clear about this.
Well as most of you might of heard, webos has finally been released in beta to the public. I was just wandering if anyone would take on the challenge of bringing such amazing OS to a phone that i think its perfect in form factor and everything for it. And i think the sooner development starts on the One X with webos well the more accostumed developers will get and maybe with future releases from hp the One X could be one of the devices to get early builds from them. Its just a request after all though, i think it would make a lot of us hapoy to see it
Its one of my long terms goals, over the course of the next year or so, now that things with JB have smoothed over. Though it might not even happen... may be impossible. The OS is entirely different than Android. The only thing they share is the Linux kernel (which still needs heavy modification).
No ETAs. Ever.
If you want to contribute and you can contribute to the project, let me know via PM or email.
but i saw that web os is ported to htc evo 3d already.how is evo 3d different from our phone?
Because this forum doesn't have the same developers as the EVO, save reason why the One S hasn't got it either.

It kind of is but the fact is that our device isn't as popular as others in attracting developers. While the ones we do have are great, it simply can't match the number of developers for other devices which makes large projects like this more achievable.

Ehh that's sorta true but it only takes one dev, I've been around both big and small communities on xda and its usually just one big dev who comes through with the break through that paves the way for the less experienced devs

Really not a smack in the face at all to our current devs. Our current devs may just not be interested in webOS. They're busy making better stuff for what we have now. and doing a mighty good job thus far. You can't fault them for not having the interest in webos (i personally would consider running it just to say i could, but i'd be back on CR probably within a couple hours.
As a touchpad owner i guarantee you will hate webos because of the lack of apps.
It's funny to see people request android on touchpad and people request webos on android

Have to agree there. WebOS had (has?) so much potential.... In some ways it's still superior to Android. But without apps, its pretty useless. With no OEM backing it anymore... Where's the incentive to develop?
It has crazy potential though. Back it the early Android porting days of the Touchpad, someone created an android environment that ran entirely as a WebOS page for running apps. If an OEM could pull that off, they'd have the best of both worlds.
With all these new phones coming out it's hard to pick which one will have the best/most developer support. Back about 1-2 years ago there were many phones but only a few "great" high end ones so most of the developers were on those all at the same time. Now there are many high end phones on all networks and internationally so the developers are spread out. It wasn't a problem before, but now I won't buy a phone at launch, no matter how great, before I see what the development will be like. I made that mistake with the Galaxy Note for AT&T. The development there wasn't even close to the international version.
The One X is an incredible phone. Imagine what it would be like with the amount of development that the Nexus or even the Evo 3d has? It's kinda sad that this phone doesn't have that much popularity with more developers. It's a better phone all around than the Nexus or Evo 3d.
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
Actually I can't say that I won't buy a phone again without looking at the development because I do plan on getting the Note 2 at launch. The tough part is gonna be figuring out which version to get. It's probably gonna be like the sgs3. Some of the versions have more development than the others.

I would actually prefer looking at how to merge some WebOS features into Android, rather than port the OS over without a halfway decent app store .

True story. I wonder if we'll start to see Webdroid or AndrOS hybrid-ports in the next couple of years.
My contract is almost up and I've been looking at phones, both upcoming and current. I'm also on att now.
My current phone is the Samsung infuse and I've been using many ROMs on that device. I've been looking into the HTC one x+. It has amazing specs. Also the gnote 2 is incredible but it may be a lil too large for carrying around.
I've never had a HTC phone but I've heard the ui is a little bit different. Samsung has touchwiz, but that can easily be changed though flashing ROMs. Is HTC sense something that is a love hate type of deal? I'm sure the development support will be great to fix that.
Just wondering others input. Been researching.

In addition, from what I've read, the x+ doesn't have an SD card slot but has a 64 gig model. I use quite a bit of storage, but I'm sure the large model will be quite spendy.
