waiting for the beast to unveil on May 3rd just too many issues with one x
Wow... Samsung Galaxy s III coming on May 3.
http://www.tothemobile.com/samsung-galaxy-s-iii-coming-on-may-3
the biggest thing which will kill S3 will be its crappy touchwiz which makes it look like a cheap toy phone
htc sense is much mature and user friendly and one x already have the latest in technology for this year, s3 will have another super super amoled which will make it fake colour and unnatural to look at, one x screen is natural and superb s3 wont compete with it
yes one x does need a software update to address few of its issue which HTC will surely get it done asap
well i am getting a DOA certificate from HTC . probably get the new HTC one X see if the issues are not in the new one. if there are then i will have no option but to sell the one x. the Service Centre guy also was pissed coz he has given out way too many DOA's and people speaking to him so rudely as if he has worked on the software stuff.

HTC Sense is mature but a RAM hogger . It may look natural but whats the point if the software is crappy . phone heating up. i was happy with my Gnexus . dont know what made me buy this . anyway getting my DOA certificate in another hours time. lets see what happens next.
well in medical its commonly "dead on arrival" its used for electronics as well....
what was the major problem which lead you to take the DOA ?
I can see the heating had gradually lower even if I play games while charging, I know its not a perfect phone but which android phone is at present ? and if samsung only give up their crappy childish touchwiz then its worth getting S3 else One X is better option .... have owned S1 and S2 and I know how crappy they are so cannt go back to them at all now
gnexus, yes indeed but it should come with 32GB internal or microsd everything else is good there but again One x is better, so far I am happy

On the same line, anyone from Pune who also got a DOA from HTC and are getting their One X replaced ?
if you slide down your notification bar and slide it back up till the status bar .... all icons on the status bar gets fuzzy. After that open the camera app and you will see green lines like graphic equaliser running across the screen. if you are using the productivity lockscreen then you will see that it flickers when you press the on/off button. Try using a grey background wallpaper , it will flicker.
When you open the camera app, the screen will flicker.
Are you telling me that you are ok to pay 37k for a not so perfect phone? HTC should have done a UAT before releasing this phone. They had WiFi and power switch issues with Sensation as well.

BTW Google has told all the OEM's to do away with Microsd card slots. Sony, HTC have already taken it off from their flagship phones. So all of you who want more memory will have to live with 32gigs , unless the OEM's decide to launch phones with 64gigs like iphone has.

i have tried re-creating the bugs on the new piece , till now its alright. lets see in the next couple of days . but one things for sure.... this will be my last HTC phone. i burnt my fingers with sensation and burnt meself again with the one x.
ok I tried the issues you mentioned on my and well as one of my friend';s white One x
1) notification, tried many combinations, no flicker at all anywhere
2) never seen any grey lines on camera app, infact I am very much impressed with its camera app
3) I use weather lock screen all the time but tried the productivity one to test ur bug, but no flicker, back to weather one as it looks cool
4) tried grey background and no flicker or any issues as such
I did noticed a small fuzziness on top of screen while browsing with many tabs open but its random , I cannot recreate it again and again to report it as issue to HTC, sure a firmware update will fix it
mate it seems you got a faulty piece and surprisingly may issues reported here are the grey phones, did not read any issues like these in white ones, dont know if its a distribution lot thing..
and totally agree with you with those issue no one will be happy after spending many bucks, good that u got it replaced, at least you should give points to HTC for giving a quick replacement unlike sammy or sony LG etc
and lastly r u not facing these in ur new piece ? what firmware is it ? is it white or grey ?
well, only if google make a 32gb next nexus with jelly bean HTC seems better choice specially if you compare with samsung , LG sony etc, I guess many will agree with me on this here since I see lots of happy One X owners like me here
can someone please send me a p.m. when the device is officially available here in India... i mean with bill and warranty, as i will be doing some crazy development on this device, if i get it....
also if anyone buys it in Pune do let me know via p.m.
BTW you get a DOA certificate only if its within 14days of purchase else you are stuck with a 37k phone. so i dont think i should give HTC any extra points for it coz all other co's that you have mentioned have the same policy like HTC.
With regards to the bugs. You might want to wait , the grey screen flicker didnt have initially on the productivity lockscreen . it all started after a few days. also if there are any ads in your app , please check when the ad changes .. since its on a grey background it will flicker.
This has nothing to do with grey or white phones and its the same firmware like all One X in the world.
BTW the pics taken by the camera has been ripped apart by the reviewers. you cant compare them with iphone 4s ( sorry to compare with the dark side of mobile phones but its a fact) .
at the end of the day its your choice if you are ok with a sub-standard phone even after paying 37k. i thought i should voice out my concerns.
-1Yes man,it's coming.
Really HTC has got no resale absolute 0 resale value in India I am sure almost half of the people using HTC One X will also move to the Samsung Galaxy SIII.
You are on One X? Welcome bro!well in medical its commonly "dead on arrival" its used for electronics as well....
