Telstra have released the One XL. But unlike the Americans, we get 32GB :cool:

All custom ROMs work on the Aussie One XL :good:

Build.prop Edits
Most custom ROMs are not optimised for Telstra. Edit these values in your build.prop to get the best HSPA+ speeds and HD Voice:

Code: 
ro.ril.hsdpa.category=24
ro.ril.enable.amr.wideband=1


Telstra APN Settings

Most custom ROMs won't have the correct APN due to the ATT crap, so you'll need to enter these manually.

Name: Telstra Internet
APN: Telstra.wap
Proxy: 10.1.1.181
Port: 80
APN type: default
Leave other fields unchanged

MMSC: http://mmsc.telstra.com:8002

Can anyone confirm a root technique for this device?
I'll be giving it a shot this afternoon.

Got mine today as well.

Pretty curious about the ROMS and rooting. Planning on rooting in the next day or so.

But so far I like the speed. Both LTE and the device.

Still unsure too if we can use the same development files as the ATT One X or not? :confused:

Ive read that root is possible on the ATT files. however I haven't found any hard evidence that it actually works.

I also found on the Ausdroid forums that there is a root guide for the Telstra One XL, but still no confirmation on success. - Any one here tried this?

Cool...keep us posted here guys so we know what's what. Telstra still haven't activated my SIM card yet so I'm waiting for that before I start playing.

Also done the superCID following the guide here:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1671396


Just have to go through the HTCDev to see if I can unlock it, HTCDev doesn't seem to be working ATM though.


EDIT: Should point out it was change TELST001 to 11111111 not CWS__001 for the Telstra handset for the SuperCID

Thanks ozjubb - makes sense - I will have a go at this during the week too. Perhaps see if I can modify the "One Click" script which implements the same procedure.

I'm the person that posted on whirlpool as ref'd above - and can confirm that the root worked OK as described on AusDroid on May 21 as linked above.

I'll also be scanning for bootloader news.

I have looked at the oneclick batch file, changes would be easy enough to make as it is only a couple of extra lines so it looks for the Telstra CID "TELST001".

I have now unlocked my bootloader through HTCDev as well.

EDIT:
Here is a link to a modified copy of the Spoof-CID.zip file that should work for Telstra handsets.

I haven't tested this as I had already unlocked etc before modifying the zip file.

    I remembered at one stage I downloaded a zip called 'Telstra Customisations', which I think contained the changes to a cooked rom to enable the Telstra stuff. Maybe it will provide some answers or clues?

    Thanks, looks like its editing the same files we've been playing with. Didn't see any extra config in them that would help :(

    Edit: PROGRESS!!! It is 100% the User Agent settings that I thought before.

    A stock telstra build will report the following (used http://useragentstring.com/):
    Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; U; Android 4.0.3; en-au; HTC EVA_UL Build/IML74K) AppleWebKit/534.30 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0 Mobile Safari/534.30
    CleanROM 4.5 shows the following:
    Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; U; Android 4.0.4; en-us; PJ83100/1.82.502.3 Build/IMM76D) AppleWebKit/534.30 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0 Mobile Safari/534.30

    So I installed Dolphin Browser which allows you to configure a custom User Agent and pasted in the stock Telstra one.....low and behold. The correct bigpond webpage is shown, you can access Foxtel, watch V8 Supercars content etc. Now to retry building a 4.0.4 ROM with build.prop and whatever xml config is required to have the UA string generated to be exactly the same as the stock one!

    My wild stab in the dark is that the most critical bit of info is HTC EVA_UL Build/IML74K. But the only part that seems to come from the build.prop is IML74K. The EVA_UL part isn't sourced from build.prop but does show up in system/customize/MNS/default.xml. Maybe I stuffed up cooking a ROM for the RUU after I made those changes...

    And one more edit... SOLVED! Changes don't take effect even after clear cache/dalvik and reboot. BUT if you make the below changes, wipe data, reboot and then add APN.....bigpond portal works.


    system/customize/MNS/default.xml
    Code: 
          <function name="ua_string">
        <set name="single">
          <item name="value">[COLOR="Red"]HTC EVA_UL[/COLOR]</item>

      <function name="ua_profile">
        <set name="single">
          <item name="value">[COLOR="red"]http://www.htcmms.com.tw/Android/Telstra/PJ831/ua-profile.xml[/COLOR]</item>
        </set>

    And attached build.prop, key items were:
    Code: 
    ro.build.id=[COLOR="Red"]IML74K[/COLOR]
ro.build.display.id=[COLOR="red"]IML74K[/COLOR]
ro.build.fingerprint=htc_asia_wwe/evita/evita:4.0.4/[COLOR="Red"]IML74K[/COLOR]/82475.2:user/release-keys

    Sucks that the changes don't work on the fly, can't be stuffed setting everything up again right now lol.

    hey guys, got a question has anyone been able to get mobile foxtel to work running cleanrom ?? the foxtel app or m.bigpond.com errors about un supported device, yet stock standard one xl works fine. could it be before the phone comes up as a htc one x instead of one xl in info section ? this should be possible to change in the build.prop ?

    thanks david

    woohoo it worked! How about that, first time I ever tried anything like that.

    I changed everything I mentioned in my previous post, but I also changed a few other bits and pieces, like the wide bandwidth for call setting on, as well as all the cid's back to TELST001

    This is my edited build prop, based on Scott's CleanRom 4.0 DE (all credit to him , I changed nothing except stock telstra lines)

    http://dl.dropbox.com/u/8757068/HTC/build.zip

    This is a list of all the changes

    http://dl.dropbox.com/u/8757068/HTC/Build Prop Changes CleanROM 4 for Telstra.txt

    The usual disclosure I guess, I am only just running around the phone now, and it appears fine, but I certainly backed it up first!! Don't yell at me if it breaks ya phone!

    Foxtel now works :laugh:

    use the dropbox links above, attached files not working
