Nope, not directly. Doubt you'll see one either. Asia and US ROMs are up to 2.2x.

Custom ROMs FTW.

Bugger, was just about to root and thought I would update first, how stupid, which is the best ROM closest to stock ?

If you want 100% stock rooted Telstra: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1757340

Yep got that just before from xda, wasn't sure if it was the way to go or not, do i really need to do a nandroid backup or i can use "RUU_Evita_UL_Telstra_WWE_1.89.841.9_Radio_0.18c.3 2.09.01_10.93a.32.20L_release_266699_signed" if things go wrong ?

No need for backup. If things go wrong, just flash the RUU.

Thanks ..

Oh actually first step:

REQUIREMENTS
Must be Unlocked and Rooted!

So I guess I can't use that ROM ?

No need for root. Just need to have unlocked boot loader and TWRP recovery installed. otherwise you're stuck with your unrooted 1.89.

Not CWM Recovery ?

Nope, there's no official CWM for the One XL. It's a port and has caused a few people to have their sd card formatted at random.

Which TWRP do I use:

HTC One X International (endeavoru) I guess this one ?
or
HTC One X AT&T (evita)

All done

Looking at picking one of these up at the end of the month on the 80 dollar telstra plan. Given beats bought MOG and HTC and Beats have their partnership hopefully this is a good platform for it.

Gonna get mine through JB to get the beats headphones and the HiFi now subscription, then sell those to offset some of the plan costs

Only crap thing is the 80 dollar plan is only 1.5gb of data instead of 2 now

How is call quality on these vs say an iPhone 4? In terms of noise cancellation and whatnot
