Why didint you say you needed it to be a world phone??


BUT anyways... it will prolly be a world phone soon

They are working on code to activate the GSM radios that come installed in the phone. So far a few ppl have gotten txt/voice capabilities, but no data. I havnt followed this thread in the last week or so, but they should be continuing to make progress on it

***UPDATED***Droid Bionic, Razr, Droid 4 can work on AT&T, T-Mobile and any GSM - xda-developers

just picked up an HTC ONE X at ATT. i have grandfathered unlim data (i'm already working on my small claims... lol...) so...

sprint doesnt have 4g yet.

have another 7 months to go on current contract before i can bail ATT.

i really like this ONE X except for 2 reasons:

1. no switchable battery.
2. no micro SD slot...

both are deal killers. the SD slot is even more since i listen to hour long mixes and i have like 20gb of audio and continuously adding to it.

now i feel like i'm back on my iphone 3G with 16gb and removing and adding new mixes... sigh...

android ICS kicks ***. dual core is even better. 4g LTE... WOW

but i might have to give it up. dang deal killers...

As long as you keep your unlimited data, just use google music. Thats what I use. I have a 32GB 2nd gen iTouch and I cant fit all my music on it. With google music, its a cloud storage that you can have youre first 20,000 songs for free. It will just stream your music (like pandora, but you can fast forward/rewind/pick the songs you want to listen to) and use data, but not storage.

As for the removable battery, how big is it?
It wouldnt surprise me if someone comes along for an upgrade for it. Just like the Razr's battery isnt "removable", it still is. Its easy enough to take it out and swap in a Maxx battery if you have the basic common sense and are good with your hands
