HTC Desire X Announced. Bring on more roms :P - HTC Incredible S

hey guys
new htc desire x got announced. when it comes out. lets port sense 4.1
http://androidheadlines.com/2012/08...-inch-screen-beats-audio-ics-on-a-budget.html

I have been confused by this device. Is it a dual core low end 1ghz snapdragon s4?
And which version of sense? Being dual core have they given it the full sense 4.1 treatment or a new sense 4.1a?
Sent from my Nexus 7

Logic would say full sense.

Why would logic say that? That would be awesome, like the sensation XL was last year
if its full sense 4.1 I will cry from happiness
But, the device is pretty low on ram for today's standards, so that's why I assumed its a sense lite device
Also the processor is a pretty low clock speed compared with full sense devices
Hopefully I'm wrong

Interesting I just postet this 2 or 3 days ago and no f**ks were given Whatever, it'll be awesome. Full Sense and perfekt resolution. SO no resizing and better look and feel

Engadget has a hands on video of the phone, it doesn't have the fancy zoom animations that the one x/s have, sure its full sense?
have a look at the music player too, I can't remember correctly but the sense 4a music player was different iirc, this one resembles the full sense one

Looks like full Sense to me. The zoom animations from Project X aren't actually in the original Sense 4, it's just a sweet change from JellyBean... Also in my music player I don't have the select player function as you see on the Desire X. Also the buttons on the top right of the player show also soundbound and I think cover upload.
EDIT: I went trough another few reviews and I guess 3D Rosie means full Sense

I think the zoom animations are sense 4, they are slightly different to the jb ones, infinity uses the stock animations and there is a difference
So does it have the 3d Rosie?

But the homescreen transitions are slightly different, I don't know how to describe it

That's maybe because of Sense 4.1... As I know they reduced and changed a few animations for better smoothness and battery.

Yeah, that was my thought, too! Would be just awesome if we get a RUU leak very soon

sense 4.1 is nice! :victory:

Just edited the wrong cmt how dumb was that? Anyway, I just read a review and it's not entirely full Sense. It's sth between full and lite. It doesn't have the Sense recent apps (stock is better anyway) and it doesn't have the homescreen overview. But according to htc it's not the final software build so they may change sth till we get it...

Question:
Would this be a good mid ranged smartphone to buy when it comes out price 280 euro i gues.
Or are there way better ones out now with higher,better specs? Cause im gonna buy a new one from now to 2 weeks
( Googling and reading shizz on the web to make up my mind )
My old Gio lowass did its job and im ready to go Mid ranged now and with googling i came across this new phone and it looks nice but maybe people here think different?
Any help would be appreciated :victory:

This phone actually has a pretty crappy SoC. It's the S4, but more specifically it's an S4 Play MSM8225. It has a dual core CortexA5 processor, an Adreno 203 GPU and is manufactured at 45nm unlike the higher end S4's which use a 28nm process. Modern dual core SoC's are of the CortexA9 variety, (although the S4 is "based on" the CortexA15) which is significantly more powerful.
In comparison, our phone has an S2 CortexA8 and an Adreno 205 GPU which just might be better than the dual core A5, due to it's older architecture. I'm not completely sure though.

I would recommend a different phone if you're looking for mid-range. Check out prices on last year's high-end models, that way you're still getting a good phone and if it's high-end, it'll have good dev support. (For example Samsung Galaxy S2, HTC Sensation, Samsung Galaxy Nexus, etc)
Or if you're willing to spend a bit more cash, check out the HTC One S, that's a GREAT mid-range phone.

N1 xda future

Hi,
i am pending between Desire and the N1 my doubts are:
1- How about the extra ram benefits of the Desire RAM: 576 MB versus the 512 MB RAM of the Nexus?
2- i know that HTC have a very strong XDA community so i am concerned that in the future XDA Roms and hacks for N1 are more faster droped then the HTC desire because although it is known that both use the same hardware but the Desire have more RAM, radio and perhaps a a better camera ("offering a solid 30 frames per second at D1 quality. The Nexus One only has D1 recording at a minimum of 20 frames per second") and perhaps other stuff so in the future let´s say when Android 2.3 gets out one can´t put it on N1 although there is a cooked rom for Desire because there are slight hardware differences
1. Yes, the desire has more ram, some will be required for Sense UI to run well, some more might be used for running programs
2. i think developers will naturally be attracted to the nexus one over the desire because the nexus one is a developer phone, it is easily hackable, and very flexible. the sense UI is proprietary which adds an extra problems when trying to fiddle with it.
Thanks for the fast response liam.lah
I mean if the the extra ram of the Desire RAM: 576 MB versus the 512 MB RAM of the Nexus will make a significant difference?
Have you considered the fact that n1 will get instant updates when google releases a new version of android? htc will make you wait a bit before they release their updated senseui+rom. i think that would also annoy devs.
the extra ram will benefit the sense ui interface, by making it smoother, but n1 doesnt have sense ui so that 64mb ram isnt making a difference to n1's speed.
edit: the desire also looks alil uglier - in my opinion (the buttons at the bottom ruin the sleek look)

I completely agree
Don't forget that sometimes HTC seems to artificially hold back updates to help sales of new models.
Look at the Hero/Legend. Same damn phone pretty much, but HTC isn't pushing an update to 2.1 to the Hero so it doesn't cannibalize sales of the Legend, which is sitting at 2.1 with identical guts inside. Totally artificial roadblock.
Who knows if that will happen with the Desire and some future HTC model.
Also..The desire does not have North American 3G, so that would be a dealbreaker for me personally.
the RAM makes no difference in my opinion. its virtually identical.
Thanks all
i already order my Nexus One
I already seen an review where the Desire was a little slower compared to the N1 because because of the sense ui. The reviewer said that the Sense ui in the HD mini was more fluid and the mini has an 600 mghz Qualcomm CPU/GPU. I can´t remember if it´s the first time that HTC puts its ui in an Android phone i know that they do that in Winmo phones since the Kayser so maybe it´s more optimized for this OS. But the reviewer didn´t tell also who many colors each cphone was using.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't HTC often include the modems RAM in its total RAM. So the ram is actually the same. It makes sense. Why would HTC add 64 mb extra RAM it's just kind of weird, they would have to add a whole new chip for just 64 mb.

One thing to be aware of regarding the GN1 is that it actually ***IS*** an HTC phone, which means that the updates are STILL in the hands of HTC. Direct from the horse's mouth, google again screwed up and failed to insist that HTC hand over the full source code and specifications.
Just like HTC DREAM support was dropped prematurely, GN1 will suffer the exact same fate.

It does seem odd, especially since the 512MB RAM and FLASH of the N1 are both in a single chip, I don't know if that's true for the Desire too?
I was thinking that perhaps the additional 64MB was "bundled" in some other chip on the phone(s), but only enabled on the Desire?

Next to the Nexus One, the Desire looks like it was designed by those Volvo engineers canned in the 80's for making their cars so ugly!
Just kidding, the Desire is still a nice looking piece of harware, but I like the lines of the Nexis One better.
And yes, the N1 is a Dev phone, dirt simple to modify and updates will be available for it faster. Rooting the Desire so far is a lot more involved. (Paul @Modaco.com) just completed the task today for SOME of them.
The upside for Desire development is that it's likely to sell 25 times better than the N1, meaning that there are going to be plenty of people (including Paul) tinkering with it.
I don't think you can go wrong with either one, but my personal preference is still the N1 over anything currently available. In time, I am sure that will change.

Not the first for SenseUI in Android - only the first time in Eclair.

Thinking if swapping Xperia play for sensation xl

What does everyone think of the phone with your time with it? Good? Bad? What are the custom roms like? Any good ones? Worth the swap?
Thanks for your help guys.

In case of gaming NO . But HTC SXL looks better and in my opinion ,it has more support on both sides that is HTC and XDA. The screen is very good especially outside.

Well it depends on what do you do most with your phone. If it's for gaming than no. But if it for Listening to Music or Camera stuff, than absolutely. And the SXL has Sense UI which is really amazing
Dude if someone is offering you a SXL for your play DO IT not only is it worth 3 times more:
Xperia Play = £140
SXL = £430
But specs wise it pwns it too

Don't let the hype fool you, unless you intend to spend your life playing emulators, the play is not that good at gaming, unless your 10 years old, and have tiny hands lol
The sensation xl is one of the smoothest and snappiest android device that i have used in terms of ui and browser. Its doing fine as a gaming device for me too. Some games wont install from market but theres a way to get around that. I played shadowgun, riptide gp and fruit ninja on it fine. But the main strength on the device are browser, screen and battery life.

i'd go with the Galaxy nexus, for a number of reason.
1) Dual core (Although the SXL proved a single core still has it)
2) Much higher screen res, The nexus has a 720×1280 screen res compared to the 400x800 of the SXL.
3) Finally being the official google developers phone, the galaxy nexus will be first for OS updates. And will receive "Jelly Bean" before any other device

Tegra 3 ....no thanks
Theres nothing that needs a quadcore on your phone. I was thinking of upgrading from my sensation xl to a one x previously but trying one in store i changed my mind. The one x with tegra3 is full of bugs and glitches. Surprisingly it does not feel any faster or smoother at all in general use. the browser and multi tasking is much better on the sensation xl. Then theres the issue of battery life. On the SXL i can get through the day with pretty heavy usage of 4-5 hrs screen on time on 3g and 6-7 hrs on wifi. The one x is getting typically 2-3 hrs screen on time on wifi. If you can get the SXL at a good price go for it.

The snapdragon s4 is great. But unfortunately the pentilated Samoled screen can be a downgrade depending on usage. Its the same display on the Razr and frankly its terrible for web use. The one s despite its super efficient cpu offers over 1hr less web browsing time than the sensation xl due to the amoled display. Htc continues to do thing halfway offering the best soc then mate it with a crappy display. Offering the best display then mate it with a problematic Soc.
Gonna see what the s3 is like and if not get the one s. Thanks guys

How this question is connected with Optimus Black?
the optimus black is the best!
just played with my friends one x and i gotta say its impressive eventho its not rooted yet (pfft) =P
but i think it dosent have an sd slot and s3 does??? i dunno design wise i would def get the one x over the s3...... but i hate sense =P but thats not a biggie hahhahahaha.... but quad core i dunno... are we even gonna really need it say in the next 3-4 years?? dualcore is good enough even for ICS, heck even our OB single core is zippy enough... (look at the awesomeness of zeus/ marvel)
ive always had this minor doubt about battery life on multiple cores also i mean yes eventho the workload on each core is reduced so = less battery drain (theoretically) but youre still ultimately powering up 4 + 1 cores... and thats gotta add up to sth right????
i think when the time comes for a recontract i would still keep my OB cos well its just sexy and the ppl here are nice! =)

NONE!!!!NONE OF THEM ARE GREAT...take my word on that...the BEST CELL CURRENTLY on the Market are GALAXY S2, XPERIA S AND HTC ONE "S" and maybe the Galaxy Note. BTW, my BESTEST BEST cell is the vintage HTC HD2. therez nothing like it. one of a kind
quad core is a gimmick. NO ONE NEEDS a quadcore (tegra's is "penta core" i beleive??) cells for now.
it is turning out to be like the megapixel gimmick of the digicam market.
most of what 95% users need is a single core 1.3/1.4 Ghz Processor and 512 MB RAM.
u tell me WHY should i get a quad core?? even if i DO get money to buy one, i'll go in for the dual core snapdragons instead of the quadcore tegras or Exynos'.
so, STOP riding the gimmick and if you are DRASTIC in getting a new cell, get the S2 or the One S.
(better get the S2, it's got a HUGE dev pool & is still good enough to keep the user satisfied for the next year and a half )
hope i don't get flamed
sorry if i bother anyone. was just sharing my views

I dont think quad core is worth using

a friend got a HTC ONE X which is using Tegra3. Just so so.
Yes, because ICS is not optimized for quad core. Plus, it is Tegra 3 which means no support.

Sorry, but how is that so? What is your definition of an OS not being "optimized" for multiple cores? Based on my limited knowledge, kernels take control of the activation and deactivation of the cores, and the apps themself are the ones that are supposed to "take advantage" of the cores.
How is an OS supposed be "optimized" for a quad core CPU?

That is up there with some of the stupidest things iv ever read.
I think the Android ecosystem is so complex that occasional lags are bound to happen even if we reach a point of using 8 cores on a smartphone. (And that, is why iOS is so smooth with slower hardware. It's a simpler OS.)
But the Tegra3 pretty much leaves everyone in the dust when it comes to games.
But when it comes to support... oh noes

The international version of the HTC One X with Tegra 3 has already gotten its full sources released a while ago.
At least it seems Nvidia isn't as unsupportive as we think they are. LG, apparently, is the one that is holding back from releasing sources for us.
Yea, but when Android 5 comes out then I hope that they will release all the necessary stuff. That may make me think better about Nvidia.

now i am goign to enjoy my Quad Core phone again okay?
What is the point of this thread? As for desktop PC's, more cores = better (most of the time). Since dual cores work just fine in both GB and ICS the same goes for quad cores. And NO, quad cores don't mean less battery duration.
Maybe he is just jeaulous but i dont think a phone needs quad core. For web browsing and watching videos (well.. lol tegra 2 ) some gameing. dual core is more than enough. As i mentiond some time ago in other thread this reminds me of megapixel hunt in compact digital cameras market.

I agree with someone said quadcore isn't really important for mobile phone. If only O2x have more than 512 MB RAM I bet it will last for next 2-3 years

It can still last for 2-3 years, you just wont be able to multitask when playing games so much in the future.
quadcores will be **** if they dont have that 5th core for when there isnt much going on or they will chew through battery.
The new huwai something has its own quadcore and it smashes all cuurent quad cores in benchmarks, tegra 3 the exenos ect. But if it doesnt have that 5th core it will probably be bad. Its said to come with a 2300mah battery.

But branding sometimes matter. Market rarely pay attention to a brand like Huawei,compared to samsung. I heard Meizu MX also decent but yeah it has the same market problem
Sent from fastest O2X ever

The Meizu MX Quad has pretty good specs (including the same Exynos 4212 in the S3), but is sold only in China. It's not meant to compete internationally.
Most useless thread ever.

Why? It isn't so why vote for it?

performance wise it is, comparing SIII and hardware tests i tried with a stock mobile.
do not compare whatever hack a wanna be kernel hacker can get out of something for x number of minutes.
o4x got performance, sdhc card, battery replacement support , colour accurancy.
most powerful does not in my mind include an unlocked mobile, if you look at raw facts but for the rest it is still one step behind oneX, but thats xda style

bootloader and kernel tweaks is one of the reasons but even hardware wise, s3 can, even though by a small margin, outperform 4x hd and one x.

my one personal test and those random tests found on xda, shows s3 is a little slower generally when stock rom is used. i prefer to compare what i got and not what is impossible to achieve on o4x currently.

our device lags too..
in a test, if both devices had a fully optimized kernel
and a similar rom, say cm10,
i'm sure s3 would out perform o4x
in terms of benchmark, and most probably in terms of standard usage

..sorry, my brain just turned off.
Vote. For best performance.
Can we vote on the hydrogen atom's energy levels too, while we're at it? :good:
Why stop there. I'd like to vote for the speed of light. And the weight of the moon. Speed of electrons in vacuum.
I don't think its the beat of the three, maybe beats the one x but not s3
Made possible by my sexy LG Optimus 4X HD (P880)

did not take me long to get a benchmark of the old firmware on oneX very close up to S3 here
if we continue with stock performance, we have already seen 12000+ on o4x, which compared to this beats s3 in a benchmark test.
S3 is close to ours but still design,quality of o4x and its better colours (not worse btb using fake black turnoff led solution).
i would say you didnt go wrong on o4x if you compare the complete picture.
edit: remember, i would have the OneX here, if it was not for the €150 difference in Denmark initially, i was simply not gonna invest that much more in pretty much the same hardware. so its not a LG thing, i got. but we can probably compare those 2 down to the hardware, with exceptions to display,bt and touch.
Cleaned thread.
Guys/girls, behave
S3 is smashing it lol.

in design and quality....there is no way s3 could win 4X HD
4X HD just need some optimization to unlock its full potential....also im one happ 4X HD owner now
I choose the LG over the S3 more on looks, I like a brick phone, hate curves, I found the s3 nicer to use and screen more responsive, but I went for LG for hopefully ROMS that will cure the little software niggles

+1. I hated how my S3 felt so much more like a toy compared to my 4xHD. Build quality hands down goes to the 4XHD...even the HTC doesn't match up, especially with its screen glitches most were having problems with.

although 4X HD cost more than s3 in my country, i still choose 4X HD :good:
why? build quality and design are awesome plus the beauty of the screen it just owned s3 in any category
