    I upgraded my One S to JB yesterday, its unbranded and unlocked, I'm on o2.
    Since I upgraded I cant use my wifi connection anymore :(
    It says its connected in the settings screen the wifi symbol shows up and has full bars but I can't view any websites or use my email or playstore. I have turned the phone off and on again, forgotten the wifi network and reconnected it, I also used the 'wps' option on the phone and router but still no joy.
    The mobile internet works fine though, any suggestions?

    Anyone with the One X on 3 manage to upgrade to JB with Sense 4+ yet?

    3 sent the update back to HTC after screwing around with the radio software apparently
    Big thread on xda about 3 CID handsets

    Try doing a factory reset. Seems to solve many of the problems that people have had following this upgrade.

    I think the problems is, while its a good phone people are being swayed by the s3 as as an all rounder its a better phone imo. I wound up keeping my one x while the s3 sold no problem at all.

    I'm over in Germany for Xmas with herself.
    My simfree 4.0.4 One S, currently on Three, went into a reboot cycle and I had to do a factory reset. Got it onto wifi in Starbucks to restore my data and got the 4.1.1 update. All went well. Back in Ireland tonight so should be able to test it out properly.

    One of those being mine ;) It's odd, I haven't really got any offers except for swaps :mad:

    This. I'm trying to push the whole tegra is good for gaming, but it's still odd that on ebay I can't get rid of one for 330, it really shows how the s3 has beaten it :pac:

    Just bought one of these, the official HTC One X Dock, got it for 47Euro, anybody else used one?

    no, but i've got one of these battery packs that uses the pogo pins on the back of the phone and it works a treat charging it, i'm never in the same place long enough for a cradle to be worth it for me though.

    I think that is more down to bettr markteting by Samsung than anything else

    Just for fun I ran quadrant on my One S, which always appears to punch above it's weight due to the lower resolution screen. I don't have a screen shot saved for 4.0.4 but from memory it was just ahead of the One X, as seen in the online database. What's interesting if the effect of the new power saver, not to mention the crazy high score without it.

    I'm sure there is an element of that also. But the far better battery life, sd slot and removable battery make life a lot easier. I had my one x full within a couple of days.

    O2 finally seem to have gotten the thumb out about JB for the One X. I'm downloading software update 3.14.206.27 right now, which described itself as 4.1 with Sense 4+.


  • Registered Users Posts: 92 ✭✭Tainor


    I was wondering does anyone know when the Jelly Bean update 4.1 will come on HTC ONE X on Three "3" ?

    I have been waiting patiently, but this is ridiculous, Android 4.1 has been out since end of June 2012, and there is even 4.2 Jelly Bean out since October? Yet we are awaiting an update from June 2012 in Jan 2013, this is absurd!

    God knows what's going to happen when Google releases Key Lime Pie "5.0" Android in the future, could be 1 year later on our devices or if at all :/

    4.1 is available for the one x, but your carrier refuse to release it

    Why

  • Registered Users Posts: 4,532 ✭✭✭WolfForager


    Why did they have to change the connectivity between PC and the One X? Was simple before, just like an external hard drive, but now while it looks similar, the overall functionality of it is a pain in the ass.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,363 ✭✭✭ofcork


    Havent got anything on o2 yet for the one s.

    I know that, was wondering how long it will take on 3 to release it, but even by HTC standards it takes a long time for the SIM-free phones to be updated compared to other companies like Samsung for example, who were more inclined to update all of their line-up with JB as soon as possible.

    I was hoping someone from Three might be able to let us know if there is something scheduled for release, or even a release date at best!

    With o2 it was always that they were several weeks after the HTC_001 release. Maybe ask on the talk to 3 forum?

    HTC are in fact the fastest to update their firmwares to the latest android OS.

    As for how long it will take for 3 to update the firmware... who knows, they add ****e to the OS and sometimes don't even allow updates that are available... you could try contacting them, but I doubt you'll get anything more than some corporate drivel.

    Actually Google and their partners are.

    Pedantry aside though, HTC are hardly fast with updates. This rollout in particular was farcical, even to non-network handsets.

    How easy is it to go from a custom JB rom to the stock rom?
