I'm on the same boat. The specs inside are making my thirsty 5" palms sweat. I'll be ordering white variant next week or week afterwards.

This isn't entirely true. Android KitKat was designed to use less power. It can technically be used on some of the oldest android devices.

I have to agree, we'll definitely see 4.4 on our device sometime in the near future. Probably not an official update from HTC, but in the form of aosp for sure.

You know as well as I do that official support for our phone is finished. We won't see 4.3, let alone 4.4. And with all the problems 4.3 roms are having, the wait for anything 4.4 will be even worse.

Because of the lower power usage we never know.
I agree it is probably over but we have some great developers here.

I don't doubt that we'll see 4.4 custom roms eventually. But it's going to take awhile. There's basically no chance of anymore support from HTC. They won't even give us 4.3.

i wish if we had some STABLE ROM for 4.3
forget sense AOSP would also do good!
:crying::crying::crying::angel:
as faar as 4.4 is concerned its optimized for Devices with lower memory (so it has to be fast) and there are a few observable changes in UI as well (no more stock HALO BLUE color) so i would really love to have it!

Just because CM is almost unusable recently it doesn't mean other ROMs are necessarily the same. Slimbean (4.3) is perfectly stable, in fact I've been using it for weeks and I haven't encountered any issues at all. I'd actually class the ROM as being almost perfect. The only reason it loses points in my mind is because it doesn't have a screenshot tile, other than that I can't fault it at all. I'm actually seriously surprised more people aren't using it, maybe they just aren't aware it's there.

i admit the fact even i was unaware of SLIMBEAN being 4.3.
in fact i was going to give Beanstalk a try cause its an OFFICIAL NIGHTLY and your signature also mentions it :good:
for the screenshot i believe there are aftermarket apps so that will be no issue for me!
secondly i had this thing in mind!?
does any AOSP rom have a battery saver option where the device goes to sleep!?
cause that really helps me!

I forgot my signature still said that, changed back to Slimbean now lol. As far as I know there's no battery saver tool built in to aosp, you can use an app like Tasker to cut data connections etc while the screen is off though.

Considered selling your HOX for a Nexus 4?

Well, have you? I have. I know I can get at least $325 for it if not the full $350.
I feel like it's a bit of a downgrade but I'd like other opinions. (vanilla is looking pretty nice with JB so distant still)
OK. What's the major difference, honestly?

Vanilla android. Which is a big difference over stock. I have a Nexus 7 and I love the UI.
More battery and more RAM.

Cm10 is pretty close to vanilla. If that's your only reason for switching then so be it. I have one reason why I won't switch. And once that is remedied I'm going to nexus permanently.
4G LTE.

Not that performance is not already enough on the ONE X but doesn't the Nexus 4 have a quad core S4 and a significantly more powerful GPU. This makes it about twice as fast as the HOX already and it has a bigger battery and vanilla android and will get the newest Android OS'.
My biggest concern is storage size at 8GB or 16GB isn't much and it just doesn't look as nice as the white HOX.
The fact that it's made by LG turns me off. The HOX is awesome in its own right and I think Sense is great in terms of usability. HTC has come a very long way with refining Sense into what it is now (remember Sense 2.0 and 2.1? *shudder*).
I've had the Tegra 3 version of the HOX, sure the 'benchmarks' said it was better, but in actual usage, the dual-core S3 spanked it. On top of that, LTE! Only time I will ever get a Nexus device is if it is from HTC though.
I'm buying one, but I'm not selling my HOX.

I can recommend it. Been runny nightly builds for about 2 months now, never had any major problems (the occasional reboot or something) but everything works great.
I considered switching, but like the verge review pointed out, the lack of LTE is a hard thing to drop. Stock 4.2 would be really nice, but I bet it'll be available soon (either AOKP or CM10) and I'll just keep my superfast LTE.
No.
Please stop these alternate phone threads.

Me too. LG phones feel and look cheap. They've gotten better recently, but still not up to par with HTC or even Samsung. I'd be interested in a new Nexus phone, but not from LG.
Weren't they talking at one point about 4 or more Nexus devices coming out by years end?
now that i have had a chance to red some reviews i think im going to pass on this
but im going to stick with my HOX and see what comes out in the new year

Thought about it, but I couldn't live without LTE. HSPA+ in San Diego is a laughable joke. A lot of times I can't even stream music when I am driving.

AT&T jellybean update?

Y'all think AT&T has plans to update straight to 4.2 instead of 4.1.1 seeing as how the hox+ update is already in progress.

I read this on a google news search might be BS but I'd love it. And most phones usually get at the most one or two updates small or big doesn't matter too the companies, seeing as how they would want there customers to upgrade their phones in the name of making more money.

I think that is the main reason why jellybean is so late. They are going to give us that one update and that's it.

Its a tough call for me. Nexus devices are supported pretty darn well. I mean, nexus s got jellybean and it can barely run it. (read run it smoothly for longer than two weeks)
But on the other hand, I tried a phone with no sense available, and I realized how much I liked sense (even though I'm only on it like half the time)
But my point is, sense is the slickest, most coherent ui overlay, and that has got to take time to do properly. Yeah, yeah, they drag their heels so we upgrade...but in all fairness, I do think they put a lot of work into it.
I think in the end I've decided that a stable version of sense is worth two of aosp. That's just my personal opinion.
After a decent aosp jellybean was released for desire z, I found myself still running gb sense 2.1. It was just a great OS that was hard to fault.

Yeah, they'll give us 4.2.1 with sense 5 because AT&T is the best!

ATT is run by an arrogant ahole who only cares about the stock price(Randall Stevenson I'm calling you out). Why actually spend money on getting us JB when he can continue to line his pockets. "Eat the rich, its the only thing that they are good for"-Aerosmith
Couldn't be truer. Do nothing paper pushing thieves. He cost att billions in the failed tmo merger and got a 20+ million bonus and then they re-elected him. Ponderous to say the least. If anyone of us cost their company billions, we would be fired and probably brought up on charges.

Sense 5 and 4.2.2 confirmed for the evita?

https://twitter.com/LlabTooFeR/status/314061165569400832 Just saw this on the android subreddit. The other devices listed are the evitare (AT&T One X Plus), Jewel (EVO 4G LTE), and DLX_WL (Droid DNA).
oooh that would be nice!
Any idea who the guy tweeting is? I'm guessing a random developer. What makes his tweet any different/more important then the news we received from htc saying the one x will receive sense 5 eventually?
In any event, looks like good news and I can't wait!

Because HTC officially confirmed only for the international quad core version of the phone. Also, I have no clue who the person tweeting it is, hence why I put the question mark in the title. But it seems legit...
The "guy" is Football. It is spelled backwards since some issues in December.
A well respected source of info.
He leaked about 90% of the RUU's we have for our devices before he stopped doing that in December 2012.
He gives highly accurate info regarding the state of devices and their updates.
I believe he is a HTC employee with at least access to RUU's for both internal and public builds.

If you're rooted it doesn't really matter when AT&T releases it, just when the first carrier does or when it gets leaked. Still, I wouldn't expect it for a bit, probably not until the summer at the earliest. Unless HTC really is being truthful about updating their phones in a timely manner.

agreed, i'm so-so on sense 5, but would much rather have 4.2.2 if given the choice between one of the two software developments. 5 seems like it could bring about a new set of issues that sense has already worked out in the 4.x versions, but 4.2.2 stands to improve a lot of the little issues that 4.1.x is experiencing.

Are we referring to one xl or one x? (Or is it the same?) I think it is strange to update the one x straight from sense 4 to sense 5 (skipping sense 4+). Then again, after leaving sense I'm glad I did. Not missing anything. I know Evita is the one x (as it says it on my boot loader), but is it the same code name for others? What about enverbous (I think)

Both the One X and One XL have been updated to Sense 4+ officially, so not sure what you mean by "skipping Sense 4+". The only big thing is that they would be skipping 4.1.2 in favor of 4.2.2, which would make sense IMO

[Q] Liquid Smooth vs Carbon ROM

I flashed over carbon as I see the devs left team liquid. I honestly do not see any difference. But I do want the most stable. Especially partial reboots during normal tasks like enabling USB mode. Anyone else have thoughts? I hope this is the right thread. If not, mods can you correct it? Thank you.

All i know for sure is, i'm gonna do my best to get my hands on the next nexus phone. They're tough to get a hold of here though. Carriers and stores don't seem to carry them so I'll probably have to order it online.
Had the evo3d before this phone and while HTC tends to have a great build quality which I love. I am just so in love with stock android and the idea of getting updates as fast as they can be released is a sexy idea indeed.
Online is always the best option. But the play store (computer) should always carry them. Especially the nexus 4. 299 for an unlocked high end device? Can't beat that with a chicken bat

Crespo is the name codename of Nexus S, Avatar is cool for costumisation but not that god with performance, search for HellyBean roms or Slim Bean roms, they have the best balance between features and performance (Helly Bean has some glitches that the creator will fix in 1-2 weeks, depending on how long his vacation is)

Have tried different 4.3 roms but all others have had problems with the camera and other stuff.
Try it:

It's old by phone standards, but it's a good audio player compared to much newer ones,and because of google's suport of it untill 4.1 the roms that have later versions of JellyBean still work preety smooth. If you have money then buy a new phone but the man that started this thread vas asking us if it's still a good phone and it is, now if you compare it to the note 2, nexus 4 and phones like this well then it's not case it's 2 generations behind them, but it's still the best single core out there

Keep it, I'm new to android phones and I just got this phone, Nexus S and I'm very satisfied with it. Though at first I've had a problem with the battery life, I've managed to come along to having a stable one which is fixed with installing the latest version of CM and voila, everything for me is smooth... not much of a bug I guess.
BTW, I have a CM 10.2 Nightly ROM.

Uuuups sorry, just that now I realise that youe nick is pitbullmommy, for some reason I read pitbullmoney sorry
I was thinking of upgrading to a Nexus 4 since my Nexus S was running real slow, but after discovering the Hellybean ROM, it has brought new life to my phone and I think I'll hang on to it for quite some time to come! Like an earlier poster mentioned, the latest 4.3 release needs some major fixing, but version 4.2 works great!
