I'm looking forward to buy the One X on launch but as a prospective customer(this would be my first HTC phone), I can't help but think about the X's Polycarbonate uni-body-For hardware troubleshooting, is there a way for the service personnel @ HTC to neatly pry it open for replacing affected/defective parts like the battery, MB or screen @ the local service center? If not, will HTC be replacing it with new or refurbished handsets? Also, what according to HTC is a refurbished handset? Is it same as Apple(defective parts replaced along with a new casing and a unique Serial No. to track refurbs)? Your views are much appreciated! Thanks a ton!!03-25-2012 06:34 AMLike 0

As for the minor differences in the shell design that others have noted. Out units came out within days of the the announcement, these could have been a more recent shell design or an early shell design. Often times we'll get a hardware swap about halfway through testing. If we do then we'll see if it the design is the same.

Many times an auto manufacturer will use false body panels or other methods to camouflage a prototype for testing in the real world. After all cosmetics really have no bearing on its performance. What the outside looks like (or feels like) to me is important, but not nearly as important as the guts. I'd rather have an ugly car (or phone) that kicks a$$ then a pretty/sexy/cool looking one that can't perform when needed.
That's just me. I know there are many people out there who just worry about appearances and don't care much about performance.03-25-2012 05:16 PMLike 0 - Two quick questions, 1 easy, 1 hard:
1) When using the device since it doesn't have a physical "settings" button how does the phone handle it when an app still uses the default placement of the settings button?
2) According to HTC's website the AT&T model of the HTC One X lists AWS (1700mhz) 3g/HSPA+ compatibility, can you confirm this is on your spec sheet? Super curious about T-Mobile compatibility.
Thanks!03-25-2012 09:18 PMLike 0 - 03-25-2012 10:06 PMLike 0
- Well.. but can it? See something's do have menu buttons by default in the interfaces, specifically the ICS GApps.. but what will happen with the One X's Hardware buttons? That's why he's asking, I'm assuming.03-25-2012 10:39 PMLike 0
- You're talking to someone that has a Galaxy Nexus. Whenever an app needs a menu button, ICS adds one.03-25-2012 10:40 PMLike 0

As for number 2 I can't confirm that just yet but I will see if I can find something in the settings, info, etc that will tell me and I'll see if one of my lab contacts can confirm...
PG03-25-2012 10:48 PMLike 0 - Galaxy Nexus has virtual buttons instead of hardware, he asked because the button would normally appear next to the virtual ones already present, so with hardware buttons there'd be theoretically no place for it to appear as those aren't on the screen; doesn't matter now, PhoneGeek resolved the question, the menu button always appears and is dismissable.03-25-2012 10:57 PMLike 0

This is by no means final as it has changed over the last couple weeks quite a bit so its a work in progress as they try to find a one size fits most approach IMO....
PG03-25-2012 11:03 PMLike 0 - Phonegeek - Will AT&T have an event to annouce the One X like Sprint is doing in April 4? Do you think AT&T will release the phone before Sprint does? The rumor is that Sprint will release the phone on June 10, and you think that AT&T will release the phone mid-May? Last question, will AT&T annouce the release date 2-3 weeks before the actual release date like how they did with the Samsung Galaxy Note?? Thanks Phonegeek for all your help!!!03-26-2012 01:27 AMLike 0

ICS will automatically add that menu button, and it is not user dismissable. (Or in other words, its persistent) Go read up on the new android style guide for more information.
