Lol... Thank god i dont have a problem with turning my phone on...lol...he wd have tell me where the power button is lol...sorry pratik but thanks...anyone know the test menu?

Regarding WiFi, mine is way better than on my sensation.
In my front room, I would get 1-2 bars on my sensation. With my one x, I get 3-4 bars, and even when I hold the phone landscape and cover the top, it stays 3 bars.
I can also detect loads more networks than on my sensation.

All phones will have some death grip effect, it's just how they are made. Like a previous poster I find wifi reception on the One X better than anything I've had previously - android or otherwise, and regardless of how i hold it.
My router is downstairs, when i go upstairs and death grip my phone I still get better reception than I did on my old desire when holding it properly.
Regarding vibrate.. what is wrong with that guys suggestion? It is a perfect way to test vibrate. Heck, even when you first turn on the phone just as you type in login details you should get haptic feedback from the keyboard.

Obviously i tried everything thts y i said i have a faulty unit and gave to htc service center and they are giving me a new phone...

I have noticed slight backlight bleed at the bottom of the screen when viewing a black screen. There is also some uniformity error, where the top of the screen is more bluish white and the bottom more yellowish.
The signal strength reads lower than the sensation

Death grip... jesus... are people still talking about this..
You dont hold your phone in such a way that it cuts all Wifi signal strength... if you do, you're a retard who needs to go to phone holding lessons...

Retards????when we pay a hefty amount for a device we believe it to be free from any such errors...and if we talk abt it than we are not loosers like u...

I just got my phone today..! so far so good.. but the only problem is it gets heated up like ( in the early days how samsung galaxy s used to be like a frying pan ) frying pan.. but it's when i was on a call through wifi on skype and also the phone is very responsive, except when you hit the task manager or multi tasking capacitive button it takes a second or 2 to load up.. sometimes when you press it like 2-3 times then you will encounter some problem.. anyone with the same problem ? although I really hope and think that all these problems will be addressed in the updates.. am currently on 1.26.. it's like 1 hour i got this phone.. trust me the screen is awesome!!

Battery life :-( for one X

Am i the only one experiencing bad battery life, with a moderate usage??
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium

no i too get terrible battery life. With average internet use and wifi on, I only manage about 5 hours. Though I've only had the phone for 3 days, so I'm not judging too much as of yet.
However, with wifi off, the standby time is incredible. I spent about 75-80min driving, checked my phone, and it was still at 100%

even i was facing a similar problem. after a full recharge the battery was draining to 50% on standby mode in just 3 hours.... there was a signal reception problem n overheating problem as well ( cudnt touch the phone while charging without getting my hands burnt!!)
but i am getting the phone replaced by wednesday.already got the D.O.A. certificate from the service center. now just hoping the new phone will b alright!!

Agreed, with screen off, the battery kind of never drains....but with screen ON...it goes down like stock market

This is all in my opinion
Pros:
Looks good and feel great in the hand
Good build quality and very light
Screen is amazing
Camera is good
Very fast - minimal lag
Cons:
Battery life has been pretty poor, but I hear it gets better over time
Loud speaker could be better
That's about it really. Amazing phone

With regards to death grip, I've been trying and can only make.the WiFi drop one bar if I cover the top where camera is. And even then I didn't always get a drop lol

Well it was to be expected with these specifications that the battery life would be bad, but It will be better in the future I hope.

amazon, all One X are faulty :(

Hey guys,
today i spoke to amazon germany about the one X, because i had already 3 faulty devices and all devices had the same issue, screen flicker.
The amazon worker said, they tested all devices and every device was faulty, now they are waiting for a statment from HTC. I think its very sad especially for the people who waited for their device, HTC shame on you -.-

Just a bad batch.
Over here in Ireland, very few if any people have had to return faulty devices.

yeah but not in this dimension, i thought a bunch of devices were faulty but not that much, what do you think hardware or software?

The store were I swapped mine 3 times also said there is no "sense" in swapping for a 4th as they are all flawed.

when they cant fix the issue through an ota, then its gonna be expensive for HTC

They may be able to fix it through an OTA. A lot of early ICS ROMs for the Rezound had screen flickering problems, but they've since been worked out. At least there's hope!

If only the level of attention AntennaGate got becomes as widespread for HTCs woes...then we might all get a free case - oh wait that won't fix the Wifi issues, or the flickering...or the yellow spots...

And the transformer prime had the.same.issue, it took 4 ota to fix it. I think I have seen people say it is possibly tegra related

While the problem is very real, I highly doubt that Amazon ripped open lots of boxes and started testing the phones. There are seals on the tape on the side of the box and they wouldn't have been able to resell the device after opening it I think they probably re-tested the faulty ones returned and judged by the number of returns that there was a general fault. By the way, it is easy to determine if your phone is a new never used one or not. When you switch the phone on, if it takes ages to start, going black for a while, it is new. If someone had switched it on, even if they didn't do anything, and switched it back off again, it would not take long to turn on the next time, due to fast boot. Since the fast boot setting is always on after a factory reset, I believe it is impossible to get the phone back into a state of "reset + long boot".
Also, having now been on my 6th phone, every single one of them had flicker. They were not all built at the same time or bought from the same store. I found a test case that could make any of them flicker
1) Battery below 50%
2) Brightness set to 40%-50% (varies a bit from phone to phone)
3) Go to the XDA forum web page on the phone. As the page is loading up, focus on the background and will see flickering as the CPU activity increases during rendering
I think there are two types of flicker. One that happens all the time on some phones most visible on grey backgrounds. And another type of flicker that happens at certain brightness/battery/cpu levels.
Another test case is:-
1) Set brightness very low, such as 20%
2) Go to app/play store
3) Choose "My Apps"
4) This may only work with a considerable number of apps..I tried it with 60. Rotate to landscape, watch very carefully the grey background...and then when the white re-appears, watch the brightness change upwards after it settles.
5) Rotate to portrait and watch again at the grey, then the white brightness levels
A friend bought a HOX just recently and it shows as well on these 2 test cases.

I bought my HOX from an italian ebay seller (a month ago: htc23) and device has arrived with an Amazon Spain package.
Never had any issue: no screen flicker, no flex ..no gap

When you have to set it up just to see it flicker that shows it's NOT an issue in my eyes - 'battery less than 50%, turn brightness to this level, etc.'
I have my phone on auto brightness, let the battery run to nothing sometimes and I have NEVER had the screen flicker. I'm saying there might not be a problem but when you get it under very precise circumstances I think you're deliberately looking for a problem...

I didn't go looking for the problem. I stumbled across it. I am very analytical, so once I find a problem, I determine the test case that produces it. I didn't return any of my phones for this problem. They all had other issues, such as screens that were not seating properly, one that displayed the left part of the image on the right side and vice versa (really weird that one), one that had a massive blue splodge near the middle of the screen etc etc

Not that much? How many does Amazon DE have in stock? 20? If it's more than that I highly doubt they opened every single unit to determine they're "faulty." The flickering's s/w and any phone is subject to it. Not all do, but all could. Last announcement on May 2 was HTC identified the issue and was working on an update specifically to address it. You're better off waiting until that fix is released.

you are so lucky! mine is an ht23 too, but it does have flickering and suffers when pressing the LCD left side. HTC says it's normal for an LCD which is pressed, i've tried to explain them that this happens only on screen borders, that most devices have no flex issues and so on.....they don't want to replace it.
really disappointed.
my first and last htc for sure.

Indeed, but also how often are you staring closely at the screen while a web page is loading. It hasn't really bothered me but if it was flickering the whole time on a grey background, that would certainly annoy me.

Don't think I've ever seen a panel phone, tv or monitor that doesn't flicker under certain circumstances if you really look for it. Unless of course it's happening all the time in which case something is wrong.
My One X? No problems here as far as I can tell and I'm not about to start to try and make them happen either.
Don't forget also - everyone's eyesight is different. Anyone familiar with rainbow effect on DLP projectors? Doesn't affect everyone - it's something to do with the way the brain interprets the signals.......

Strange, as my last 2 had that issue. Made a youtube about it, send the link to HTC support and they contacted me. They told me that it was not the way an One X panel should react on pressure. Got a refund after the 3rd one, now I'm struggling what to do with my premium navigation license.

If its far fetched why have HTC admitted to the problem in one of the many threads raised by users facing this issue?

Ghost Touches

These ghost touches happen quite often and render the device unusable. They last for several minutes and don't seem to have any apparent trigger. I've tried searching for people with a similar problem have been unsuccessful maybe due to lack of a way to describe what's happening.
I managed to grab a video on my girlfriends One X in the dead of night to better illustrate the problem. The phantom touches are always in the same location on the Y Axis but vary on the X Axis.
Any information or solution would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Tom.

I can't see the video (work blocks it)...what are you doing when the phantom touches happen...
It may be a silly question...have you ran the oboard diag tests??

That looks bad. Have you tried factory resetting so you can get the phones default screen calibration back? You might want to call HTC Tech Support too if that doesn't work.

Mine did the same thing when I got it wet. Not to say yours got wet, but my HOX got wet while I was at the beach from a wet towel " driving home". Did yours get near any wet areas?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium

I had the same problem with my last HOX, in the beginning pretty seldom but later it became nearly permanent. I was able to trigger it by pushing slightly harder in the upper right corner. A factory reset didn't bring anything, so i brought it back to the vodafone store.
I suppose this error occurs due to generally hard pressure on the touchscreen (like sitting on it, wearing tight pants and kneeing down, ...)

I'm affraid this is a touch hardware failure...

@Op,
Nothing ghosty about it and lucky you it's no hardware failure.
It has been mentioned before on the board as well.
Go into Settings/Developer options and un tick 'show touches'
Cheers.

Burning Smell

Hey Guys,
I seem to smell a burning sensation on my HOX specially while charging for the last few days. Phone seems to be okay functionally and i am running on stock - relocked for more than 2 months.
It is very concerning and i don't feel good about this.
Any suggestions/inputs is appreciated.

I can smell it in the top near the power button / back camera area.. don't remember if the bottom was giving the smell. I am not sure if this is happening every time :/ got to be little more careful in my observation.

This might be a weird question but, do you smoke? Or is the phone second hand, possibly from a smoker?

lol no.. not a smoker and the phone is new. today morning I felt the smell after I finished a very short call.

very curious why you had that question and how it relates.

Mine has that, too.
When it gets hot/warm it smells a bit burnt.
But it's running fine for over 6 months now, so I'd say it's no big deal

SkyDragon Sense Rom V1

Hi Guys,
I was looking in the internet for some info about this "burning smell" from the HTC ONE X and found this post. I'm concerned because it started smelling just an hour ago (i was playing SW Angry Birds) but the phone was not warm at all. I see that pradeepvizz also had the same problem a couple of days ago.. i don't have a good feeling about this actually.. any other who has the same problem?
Cheers!

I had that burning smell a month back. My phone turned of and wouldn't turn back on again had to get a replacement phone from my carrier under warranty.

I can smell burning smell from my HOX too,i started to realise it almost 2 months ago when i was playing game and the phone became very hot on the back,that was the moment i started to detect burning smell from the top earphone connector,since then,it has been like that,the smell gets higher when the phone gets warmer.Apart from this burning smell and wifi issue i am facing,the HOX is running perfectly all right.Honestly,i think the burning smell is not really a big deal

THIS IS ONLY FROM A SAFETY POINT OF VIEW!!! PLEASE IF YOU SMELL A BURNING SMELL TURN YOUR PHONE OVER AND LOOK AT IT SIDE ON!!!!!! IF YOU SEE ANY RAISE WHATSOEVER!!! ON THE CASE WHERE THE BATTERY IS, PUT YOUR PHONE DOWN, LEAVE IT AND RING HTC
Someone who "smelt" a burning smell a few months back, had his HOX blow up in his bag, do not let this happen to you as it might not be in your bag, it may be in your hand!
Seriously, check for any raising on the back of the phone where the battery is, if its raised at all your battery may be combusting itself, be safe not sorry !

I've had this before, I'm sure I've raised a thread about this or spoken about this somewhere else before...
I get it alot when playing eternal warriors 2, like alot!
My HOX has never shut down on me though so I'm just guessing it's the GPU running really hot, I'll install some temp readers and monitor it.
Infact, lets all do that and compare.

I smell many trolls too, my hox smell like teen spirits (Nirvana)

there are different battery apps/widgets/tools in the market with an included temperature measurement.
you should install anyone and check your batteries temperature while charging.
it shouldn't have more than 40-42°C
by the way: are u using the original HTC charger ? (you should!).
