Starting to think it's a myth - I don't think it's being sent to all unlocked, unbranded phones - nobody here in the UK has received it. :/

I read on XDA that UK Devices should have the update by Sunday. I have a UK Device here in the states on at&t.

Damn, roll on Sunday!! WiFi issue is really annoying me, thankfully no grey screens or reboots going on

I begin to think someone had too many mushrooms and mistaken 1.29 with 1.28 and the story went live on internet, now unstoppable.

There are screen shots on the first pages of this thread.

Your inability to be patient does not mean that other people are lying.

Who says I'm impatient? I got no issues with my phone, I only hope for better battery and that it won't break anything for me and I simply follow the story.

Improved battery would be all that I ask for....

Was going to create a new thread, but can anyone with the AT&T One X comment on what firmware those are shipping with?

Here is the version that is on my phone.

 

[icebike]

What phone is that? Looks like a research and development build.

i have the same as you.

Is the international version compatible with AT&T LTE band or just 3G?

 

[promo]

Never mind I Googled it and it is compatible with HSPA+ only. Why the hell would AT&T have 16gb phone and not 32GB is beyond me.

 

[icebike]

I have the international HSPA version and its plenty fast enough. Unless you happen to live in a LTE city (few and far between) you would be better off with the international version, other than the initial cost.

Except that the S4 in the USA version is better than the Tegra 3 in the international - except when playing Tegra-optimized games.

S4 AnTuTu - 6-7k
T3 AnTuTu - 10-12k

S4 only performs good on dual core tests only, when the test supports more - Tegra outperforms S4 in both CPU & GPU.

Real world performance - typical usage - does not really take advantage of the 4 cores. For most things, the S4 is faster. There are many benchmarks out there that show this.

The Tegra 3 isn't bad at all - it's just not as advanced on a core-by-core basis as the S4 (28nm vs 32nm, A9 vs A15).

& less than 12months ago, people said the same about dual core phones .... Not needed, no apps support it etc

Where are those single core phones now?

Most people will be on 18/24month contracts with these devices, & in less than 6 months - quad core devices will have true support, leaving the S4 wayyy behind.

... That might not be the case right this minute, but it's only a matter of time.

There are many functions/apps that simply do not derive enough benefit from quad cores to be programmed for it. Everything I've read makes it clear that it is difficult and time consuming to program for multi cores and often the gain is negligible.

Certainly there will be more ways to take advantage of quad core as time goes on. That's a given. Just don't assume that -everything- will eventually be re-written to support it.
