Quick question. I had an 8x as well with the Dev Preview since it was released. My phone was always...and I mean always...resuming - even with apps optimized for 8.1. The overall performance was really laggy.

Fast forward I bought another 8x off of ebay because I left my previous phone on the roof of the car and went down the freeway *yikes*. It has the latest 8.0 but I'm hesitant to update to 8.1 again because my experience was so awful even though I had all the awesomeness of 8.1. Wondering if the performance slow down was an isolated incident or not.

I would think you had an isolated problem. There are many sporting the Dev Prev for 8.1 & loving it. Myself included. Like others I believe the phone got faster.

Some of the 8.1 updates were making my 8X laggy, too. The last one, that has released for it (12400.899) is good enough.

HTC does not announce release dates of software due to the nature of the software development process. At any point in the software development cycle a situation may be encountered that requires anything from some minor additional rework, to complete rewrites of the software base. Only after the final acceptance testing has been successfully completed will HTC release software. Please stay tuned to our website and social media for future update announcements

‎3‎:‎56‎:‎14‎ ‎PM CustomerFred J Andrews

I don't want a date just some kind of confirmation that you haven't dropped us and a solution is in the works.
