My new HOX+

**VDub2174** · 01-09-2013, 10:07 PM

I am absolutely loving this phone!! The screen looks great and I actually kind of missed Sense a little bit since I moved from my EVO 4G ages ago. I'm glad I made the switch form Sprint to AT&T

I've been familiarizing myself with rooting my phone since before it even came in the mail. It just came in yesterday and I already have it rooted and flashed a ROM

What did you use to root and what ROM are you using?

**VDub2174** · 01-10-2013, 06:05 PM

I used this tool to root it (I highly suggest reading the written guide for help):

Then I flashed this ROM (the themed version):

Did it give s-off? I'm holding out for it

No S-OFF yet. Still have to flash boot.img in fastboot in order to flash a ROM. I can't wait for that to eventually happen because flashing ROMs would be much easier.

The Note 2 is a sexy phone but for me personally, it was too big. I took time to play with both in a store before buying and I'm quite happy with the HOX+

Yeah it sucks but as long as you stick with the same ROM, you don't have to flash the boot.img each time (from what I've read).

If you flash the zip in flash GUI app first, then reboot>wipe>install same rom.zip you flashed in GUI app, that's all you need to do... No connection to PC required

And I believe that what type of hboot you are on determines the need to fastboot flash, not if its S-ON or not. There's a bunch of people with One XL that have S-ON and don't need to fastboot flash

Updated Elegancia ROM and didn't have to flash boot.img, just flashed ROM right from the phone.

Still loving this phone! I find myself using it as a media player more and more. My Galaxy Player feels neglected now

Gui app won't work with the Att onex+ HTC locked hboot ..I even emailed the dev to see if he could support the Att onex+ on his app and he told me they locked it
