Galaxy Nexus Jelly Bean build ported to the HTC One X

Shortly after the Android 4.1 (Jelly Bean) update for the Samsung Galaxy Nexus leak showed up, XDA member tgascoigne, managed to get a port up an running on the HTC One X. The core of the OS seems to work just fine (though a bit slow at times), but basic functionality like WiFi, audio and camera are not working. Progress in fixing the known issues is being made, but major improvements to the ROM will most likely happen once Google releases the source code for Android 4.1 later this month.

HTC has not made any promises when it comes to the latest Android 4.1 update, but it's safe to assume that the HTC One X will be the first device in their lineup to get of taste of Jelly Bean. Unfortunately, we'll probably have to wait at least 3-4 months before the update is released.

If you happen to install the Android 4.1 ROM on your HTC One X, be sure to let us know what you think of the latest Android update.
