Updated – HTC One X Android 4.1 update rolling out across the globe

Updated –  HTC One X Android 4.1 update rolling out across the globe

The inevitable has finally happened – Android 4.1 for the HTC One X is finally here. We’re received dozens of tweets today from our followers who can confirm that the Jelly Bean update for the HTC One X is currently making its way to unlocked HTC phones across the globe. We’ve been able to confirm the update has hit CID_038 and CID_044 devices in India, Argentina, UK, Russia, Dominican Republic, Peru, Brazil and Sri Lanka, but we’re sure the update will be making its way to even more markets in the coming hours.

Will your HTC handset be updated to Android 4.1?

Similar to the Android 4.1 update for the HTC One X in India, users will first see a smaller 1.6MB download which is followed by the main 364.54MB Jelly Bean update. If you’d like to check your CID on your HTC One X, head on over to Google Play and search: CID. Most of the CID apps should work. If you have not already received the OTA update notification, you can try to manually ping HTC’s update servers by going to Settings > About > Software updates >Check now.

Leave us a comment below and let us know how the Android 4.1 goes for you and what you enjoy most about Jelly Bean.

Update: one of our contacts at HTC has let us know that the Android 4.1 update for the HTC one X is currently limited to Taiwan and Asia with Europe and other non-U.S. regions listed as “coming soon.” Stay tuned.

We issued a limited release of Jelly Bean for the One X in Taiwan and parts of Asia earlier this month, and the broader roll-out in Europe and other non-U.S. regions is coming soon.

    I’ll never understand why it takes AT&T so long to roll out these updates. I’ve grown quite impatient.

    • DROID Sam

      While HTC has done testing for this update, AT&T and other carrier partners perform testing of their own to make sire that the new update is optimized for their network and that their added apps work without any issues. This testing process takes 2-3 weeks but it could take a lot longer if any issues are identified during the testing process.

  4. Sean

    We owners of the AT&T version should not have to wait so long for an update which seems to be very stable and ready for deployment

  5. David Tan

    Got the update this morning – about an hour + ago for Malaysia. Started with a small update of 1.25MB then follow by 364.56MB. Performance is significantly better as per Antutu and Quardrant Benchmark.

    • Nick

      Have any score you can share? We’re heard rumors that the update improved performance about 10-20%

      • idd

        I already get JB 4.1.1 – MALAYSIA

        Score Quadrant Standard is 6068
        Score Antutu Benchmark v3.0.1 is 14101

      • David Tan

        Here you go.

        Quadrant Standard: 6645 (present) vs 5901
        Antutu: 14447 (present with latest Antutu) vs 12198

        12% better with Quadrant
        18% better with Antutu

        So you are right.

        Other observations, smoother scrolling in home screen. Faster launches of apps. Notice battery life is about the same as before JB but need more time to monitor.

  6. Hong Tran

  13. Benedikt Laumann

    Nothing in netherlands. Cid 011

  14. Richard

    Still nothing in the UK, but seeing as my phone is Vodafone branded it will be probably January 2013 at the earliest, they are always very slow in releasing updates.

  15. Novruz

  16. Lars

    CID_102 in the Netherlands, nothing yet!

  17. Denny

    • same here, HTC_001 unbranded UK, nothing :(

  21. erwinpiero

    I’m at Indonesia, cid 044, already updated to 4.1.1 Sense 4+. First initial update was 1,25MB

  22. CID: HTC__203, Greece. Still waiting for the ota update. tried in manual update mode.
    Will update when i’ll have news.
    Waiting for the ota, is better than waiting for the Eurogroup to solve the “panEuropean” financial crisis problem.;-)

  23. neil

    well Greece could been honest about their debts before trying to join the euro that would’ve been helpful

    • Dirk

      ..Or the european parlement should have looked in closer at the beginning insted of trying to get as many country’s in as possible….w’r all stuck in this euro -thing…thinking of imigrating to the Uk or the Skandinavien country’s, they been a lot smarter by not joining, if u ask me…;-)

  24. Nothing in Kuwait yet. Still running the old faithful 4.0.4. Well what can I say? That’s life. You have to give and take. If you don’t give you can’t take and if you don’t take you will give. Waiting for an update is so hard that I can’t wait anymore. wait wait wait. whyyy??? whyyyyyyyy????? Obladi Oblada life goes ooooon…

  25. joël

    28.11.2012 / 09h30 / CID: HTC__E11 -> nothing in Luxemburg so far

  26. Adnan Mansoor

    what about the update for CID htc__203 france? when it would get the update?

  27. germangirl

    CID_102 – nothing new in Germany!

  28. CID_J15 – nothing in Kuwait. I think that CID stands for “Coming in December”, that is why we have nothing yet. Maybe J15 stands for “January 15″ and that means that the deadline for the update to roll is January 15. Let’s wait and see.

    • androi

      Sure, cutiepie. XD

  29. Gurpreet Singh

    Update availaible in INDIA (New Delhi). I have updated my HTC One X and I am really enjoyin the updated and cleaner Sense 4+ bundled with this Jely bean update. The most important feautures for me are Power Saver in Notification area, Cleaner Sense 4+, HD Contact Pics, Camera Interface.
    I have one issue though that the Wallpaper scrolling has stopped on my HTC One X after the Jelly Bean update. Can Please enybody confirm me the same.

    Thanks.

    • Strays

  39. nv94

    Global update… what a joke…
    Still nothing in France on the CID HTC_203…

    HTC don’t care about Europe..

  40. paul

    JB 4.2 is rolling … we still did not get 4.1 .. its like HTC have no idea what Android is planning. if we waited so long i would expect to be up to date. it services after sale that keep clients recurring to a company . NOT NEGLECTION.

  41. Tim

    This is a joke i got the One X course i liked it better then the S3 and now im sitting here waiting i and never regret a phone buy as much as i do with the One X..

    Getting a Nexus as soon as google and deliver it im sick and tired of waiting

    • Rikypg

      Same for me! Next phone for me is a Nexus!

  42. androi

    Waiting. Waiting, waiting, waiting. Samsungowners here in Germany are already laughing off their butts because we still hang around waiting for 4.1 (!). SERIOUSLY, HTC – something happening in Europe these days or what???

  43. paul

    Ok HTC can keep their updates, done waiting. canceling order for htc one + , canceling order for 2 droid dna . We dont spend our money to spend our time waiting

    ENOUGH HTC GOOD BYE

  44. Dirk

    Nothing here so far, Belgium CID_E11…agree with most comments here”HTC this sucks big time”..this was my first and last HTC, been with Samsung and i should have stayed..Damn

  45. Mathijs

    Nothing in the Netherlands as well, CID_E11.
    I know it’s quite a wait, but guys… come on! The HTC One X is was and still is a very fast phone. You’ve all been very happy with it for quite some time, so don’t start bitchin’ when the updates don’t come fast enough. If you don’t like your phone as it is, you shouldn’t have bought it in the first place.

    • paul

      Mathijs, its not about bitchin, lol its simply not the first time, when you constantly buy products form a company and all high end, you expect to be treated at least as other companies service their clients. when u choose a product and ur a faithful client, what reward you can get from your vendor but these little things like updates. when you test the phone in the shop and its clean of course no lag, and all is fine, but when u start using adding programs etc.. the lag starts . Updates are the only way to keep performance at acceptable level, etc.. i can go on and on … but it is what it is am afraid . as a consumer i have the right to ask for the minimum at least…

  46. Morteza

    I received update today but after download 365MB it restarted the phone and again I have Android 4.0.4 in Software information. Don’t know why this happened.

    • Dirk

      Where u at Morteza and wich CID nr…..? Guess u will have to contact HTC support on this one tough..Good luck

      • Morteza

        CID_044.

        I figured out the problem. You should not put the phone on Airplane Mode while upgrading or you will loose everything like photos, videos, apps etc.

  47. Fahad

    When is the update gonna roll out for o2 __ 102??
    tired of waiting!

  48. Murat

    Not yet in Turkey cid: htc_M27 htc promised for october. Its december today and i didnt get. Im still waiting. :/ and i see that no one got the update in europe.

  49. Emmy
