I have managed to update it to 4.2.2, the phone is awesome now but one thing I don't like is how the menu is displaying, instead of normal sideways Its now scrolling up and down and I don't like it that way. Can I change it from settings or is launcher the only solution to that.

Do you know how to root HOX without unlocking the boot loader and it will also turn S-On to S-Off.

No unlocked bootloader is no root, s-off also not possible (only via a shop where you have to pay for it)

Launcher is the way. Up and down is the new stock !

I went through my settings but didn't see where to apply themes, how can I do that.

Where can I download good themes for my phone (cartoons or game themes preferable)

Thanks for the other reply

    Hboot number is stated in the bootloader and all those roms are in the original android dev section

    Please how do I check my Hboot, kindly do me a favour by providing the direct link to the above ROM you mentioned.
    you can check hboot by pressing volume down and power button at the same time do not release until your phone boots back into a white screen
    search for the hboot line also check if your phone is s-on or s-off

    Pardon my question,
    How do I go back to normal screen after checking the Hboot?
    I have seen CM nightlis, I need 4.2.2 sense 5 he mention. I will be glad if you provide me with the link

    go to fastboot with volume keys (up down) select fastboot(with on/off key) then select reboot

    to update to sense 5
    if you are not rooted(back in the fastboot screen unlocked= rooted locked+ no root)
    go to settings=>about phone=>software updates
    if you are rooted you must first relock bootloader flash original firmware which you will have backed up while rooting(nandroid)

    I saw
    ***LOCKED***
    S-ON
    Hboot- 1.12.0000
    eMMC -bootmode: disable
    CPU -bootmode: disable
    HW Secure boot: enable
    Modem path: Off

    Can I upgrade to 4.2.2 without locking or unlocking anything?
    I don't have anything installed on the fone expect few pictures, is there any need for back up?
    Can you help me with step to do nandroid back.
    A Video can also be an added bonus.

    yes just update your phone thru settings=>about phone(the last option)=>software updates

    to do a nandroid backup you must unlock and flash custom recovery (video 1/2) do not flash a custom rom then simply in your recovery go to "backup & restore" and backup everything

    Is nandroid the only back up I need if I want to flash custom rom, I aslo heard about flashing Kernel...can you throw more light on that please.

    yes nandroid also backups kernel
    just follow the videos and you should be fine
    now you should do stuff in the following order
    update phone=>unlock bootloader=>flash custom recovery(cwm if you want cm11)=>flash boot.img in fastboot=> flash rom and gapps
