The phone isnt that big.i can text with one hand

Its on the limit to me and I get the feeling the S4 and new nexus will be bigger.

not bad? It's the best phone on the market lol

I know you are still trying to hold on to that whole "jobs gang" nonsense...but the reality is that the iPhone 5 feels like a midrange device. The internals are pretty impressive, but the hardware and that os are so outdated its not even funny anymore.

Is rooting my phone worth it? I think I'm still too shook to try anyways

They could make less bezel.. But it's really about preference. They need to take a Page out of Motorolas book

What's a good music player for the s3? I just installed jellybean on this bytch, how do I add custom apps on this?

I'm getting used to this

So i was looking at the specs of each phone. What does the s3 really have over the One X? I hate the way the s3 feels. It feels like i can make a paper football out that thing.

Now the One X?? That's a sexy ass phone. And it's 100$ cheaper..

I agree that HTC is still one of the best with hardware, only NOKIA has them beat imo.

Touchwiz is better than Sense
What is the battery like on the One X? HTC still ships phones with garbage batteries in 2012

 

[Phillyrider807]

From looking at the reviews the s3 does indeed have better battery life. But everything else the one x is either tied or better.


Im hearing that the at&t one x can't be rooted though. Is this true??? I be damn if im waiting til dec for my Jellybean!

Jelly bean is rolling for Verizon G.Nex

Verizon hasn’t mentioned that the update is rolling out, so we’ll have to ask you to check your phones and let us know. My Galaxy Nexus is already running JRO03O, so there is no update to be had on my end.

If you would like to try to force the update, try this set of instructions:

1. From your phone, head into Settings>Apps>All.
2. Search for Google Services Framework.
3. Once found, tap on it and choose “Force stop.”
4. Then choose “Clear data.”
5. Back out of Apps to your About page in Settings and check for the System update.

This didn't work for me
