    Just seen on Techradar the one x reportedly getting Jellybean in October. Link. Fingers crossed that it is.

    Have my One X since April.

    Brilliant phone accept for wifi. It was pretty good until I got the last firmware update (2.17.401.2). Now it drops the wifi if I am more than 4 metres away from the router.

    Hopefully, they will issue a firmware update with the Jelly Bean roll out that sorts this problem.

    Pretty sure it's a hardware fault. Press lightly between the camera and the volume button and see if your WiFi strength increases, if so, tis a hardware problem.

    My WiFi kinda jumps up and down a lot without moving, not very reliable at times when I'm a bit away from router. Main prob I find is the odd time when on a strong connection even, nothing works on WiFi until I disconnect and connect to it again, then works fine.

    Thankfully I don't think I have the hardware prob

    Did you have it plugged in when you updated, there's a warning not to, think a few people had issues like this when the 4.04 update arrived.

    Not impressed with HTC on this one. Bad form to get a lot of people on long term contracts then announce a more high end phone.

    Phone company in new model shocker.

    Phone company in new model shocker.

    But it isn't a new model, it's just an iteration on the current phone. A bit annoying really.


  • Hosted Moderators Posts: 10,165 ✭✭✭✭mik_da_man


    Same as the iPhone so :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 815 ✭✭✭dave13


    Don't mind companies releasing new models 6 months after original is launched, it just better get updated to 4.1 pretty quickly or my next phone will be a samsung.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,797 ✭✭✭ChopShop


    My (unbranded) one X is at 4.0.4 after a download this morning.

    Which i presume is a pecursor to JellyBean.

    Rumours say October for unbranded phones , UK + Ireland with be 2 - 3 weeks late as usual+ another 3 - 4 weeks for branded roms... If your unlocked tho you should be running jellybean before Halloween :)

    I've been at 4.04 for months. Isn't it just the Sense 4.1 update?

    You're probably thinking of 4.0.3. 404 was only out maybe 2 months.

    just dropped my one x on the carpet here at work (carpet tiles) from waist hieght as i took it out of my pocket and the screen shattered on impact. :(

    pretty sure i took out insurance with meteor when i got it, so we'll have to see how that goes.

    need to get the wifi issue sorted and get the camera lens replaced anyway, so hopefully get a job lot.

    If you thought the One X's capacitive button layout jarred with the Ice Cream Sandwich experience you saw on the Galaxy Nexus, you'll like what HTC's just told us. An update to version 4.0.4, launching today, will allow users to map menu functionality to the lower right 'recent app' key, while it will also treat its owners to white balance and continuous autofocus improvements within its well-received camera app. Expect a handful of stability improvements as well as a dedicated tab switcher for the built-in browser -- if you haven't already made the leap to Chrome. According to HTC, the update for the international iteration rolls out today, with the AT&T version already doing the rounds. The full statement's included below. Let us know how you get on.

    The 4.0.4. bundled with sense 4.1 only came out in August, on the international HOX. Any chance you're on the XL or S?

    I had my HTC One X in my back pocket when I sat on it on Friday night. Screen also shattered on "impact" :eek: Good job I don't have self confidence issues.. Anywho, just wondering if anybody on here has gone about repairing a screen themselves and if so, how difficult a job is it? Talking glass screen and LCD display here..

    Cheers

    I was on CM10 for a good while but missed the Beats sound of Sense. I tried all of the Beats mods out there and just couldn't get music to sound as good.

    I do miss CM10 though.

    hmm fair point, never occurred to me about losing beats, I haven't used it as a music player tho, so I'm not too bothered ! must keep an eye out for re-integration of it in the future :)

    Mike1986 and Football over at XDA have been hinting that a Sense JB ROM is due very soon. They've had a test ROM working but with no radio.

    I listen to music on my commute to and from work and really miss Beats when I don't have it. I am a couple of weeks back on ARHD now and I'm thinking of switching again but then i will remember why i miss beats :-(

    are you using the htc headphones or do you need beats headphones also, those headphones that came with the phone are very uncomfortable I find
