Same here, every time i plug the charger in

Thanks, how long you had them for? Just trying to decide if this is a separate issue from the constant screen flicker, or if its just a sign that eventually its gonna flicker all the time again

Maybe it's a voltage regulator that's the problem for the flickering screens?

There was somebody who said HTC had confirmed that to chitter chatter (not sure if that's the correct company name) that it was faulty voltage regulators, although the HTC support just says to get it replaced without further info apart from 'we are investigating'

Personally I think even if it flickers when plugged in there's a hardware fault, ie my dhd never flickers when I plug it in...

never had any flickers, plugging in the charger or taking off the charger doesnt cause any flickers.

Flashing notification light

Hi, when I play games or watch movies on my one x it sometimes start to flash red - green on the notification light.
I think it only happens when I have the charger plugged in. Anyone know what it is? And if its any help, I'm running leedroids Rom.

I was thinking this but I'm not too sure, I was wondering if the one x charger would have higher power output due to the beastlyness of the phone. I however never use it because it's short...use an old blackberry charger seems to take about the same amount of time to charge tho

Generally, those two circumstances tend to occur simultaneously!

Yup! Do NOT play games while charging...it is a sure way of pushing the thermal limits!

No, its pretty much an industry standard that micro usb chargers run 1A @ 5v
If the charger is really old it could be 800mA but not likely, easy to check though, just check between the pins on the plug

oh so its not overheating?
It's definitely overheating. I was watching an hd movie using sw code and charging (I had about 20% battery, so it was taking the whole amp), and the light began flashing. I quit the mx player and saw battery widget reporting 49 degrees Celsius and battery status was 'overheating' I have to mention though that I had my phone placed onto a pillow, so no chance of dissipating the heat whatsoever. I presume the same happens when you play a game and hold your phone. My advice is just to wait a while for the battery to go up enough, so the charger begins the slow cycle - then you'll be charging with a few hundred mA and it will be easier for the phone to handle the extra heat.

Well when the led flashed like that for me I was playing shadowgun and the battery dropped a percent over the time I was playing with it charging the whole time, but like someone said above both will happen. The phone was hot for sure
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
Well I used to have overheat problems as well but I fixed it by doing a hard reset. My phone doesn't overheat as it did before the reset and I can easily play games on the phone while charging. Even after a hard reset, my phone easily hits 43 degrees though. Just thought to share this with you guys.

I used my touchpad’s charger which is a 2A charger and it charges twice the speed. So you can try using any tablet's charger for a fast charge..

Blue and black lines

Can someone test this for me, when it is sunny or quite light outside. Take your phone off and turn the screen off. Then point it at an angle so the light is reflecting off it.
Do you notice blue and black lines running across the screen? They can also be seen with low brightness when the screen is on.
It has to be outside under natural light to see this.
I got a replacement One X today and it has those where as my previous one did not. My friend doesn't have these lines but i know someone from a different forum that does.
Is it normal?
Does no one else have this?
Just walkoutside when it is sunny with the brightness at 0-15%. Then turn the screen off and hold it at an angle. You should see the lines across the screen. Then turn the screen on so you're at the lockscreen and you should still be able to see them.
That is meant to be there, I think it is something to do with the touch screen.. but I know it is essential for your phone

Screen Problems

This is utterly annoying. Whenever I put my phone on charge the screen seems to lock-up. Well, I say lock-up, but a better word for use would probably be messes up.
Basically when trying to lift the Lock Ring out of the Lockscreen I'll have to do it like 6 times. But it's inconsistent. For example I'm using my phone now with the charger in, not an issue.
Has anyone else experienced anything that even comes close to this with regards to the screen?

Yeah I have this problem too, try pressing the power button twice then try again, seems to work for me.
Thanks, at least I'm not the only one! Was getting ready to take it back for a minute then.
It's most annoying during gaming.

It's a software bug, not a screen problem as the title states.

Replace your charger.
Sent from my HTC One X using XDA
yap..always use original charger.. if still got the issue you can try to replace the charger..
Use a quality charger that is atleast rated at 700mA or higher. Also plugging it to an outlet that doesn't share other heavy appliances to prevent line noise.
Also sometimes even stock chargers can be faulty.
I suffered the same problem and thought I was the only one, sometimes it's absolutely fine and other times it just won't work. I initially resolved the issue by unplugging the phone from the charger and then plugging it back in again. Then I realised that if you press the power button to turn the screen off and then on again it seems to resolve the issue. It's a pain in the ass but at least it's not a major fault

It's got nothing to do with the charger, happens on 4 different chargers I've tried.

New batches xx27

Are anybody here got any experiences of the new HOX batches xx27. I have a xx24 with wifi and screen ripple issues but I getting a xx27 tomorrow.
Are there any issues with the newer batches or have all the problems been ironed out?
I've seen some threads with problems on the xx26 but not much mentioned about the xx27models, I suppose because they are new
Thanks

The screen ripples just with normal pressure or with extra pressure applied? damn you htc :crying:
Screen ripples is common on most LCD screens. Press tour laptop screen and it'll happen and such. It's barely noticeable and only noticeable if you look for it.
Let the glue settle it'll get better.

It does require extra pressure but not an extra ordinary amount. With regards to all lcd panels having this effect my HTC sensation didn't do this neither does my Motorola xoom hmmmmmm...

It depends on the LCD technology whether you it ripples under compression, some panel types do not ripple when pressed but are lacking in other respects.
The Gorilla glass should be enough to stop ripple under normal use but the glass does flex so if you push hard the LCD can ripple.

Ok this sh27 seems to have a vibro hardware issue, clicks every time haptic is used.
I was hoping all off the bugs would have been sorted out 4 months after launch but it seems not. What more annoying is I'm now out of the 28days and this need to sent off to HTC.
I'm trying to live with it but find it more annoying each day.

What do you mean it clicks? these are hardware issues., not bugs
Too true this is a hardware issue. It sounds like the vibro clicks every time the haptic feedback is used. This happens on all keyboards and capacitive buttons. It's almost as if sound on key press is on and the sound is a horrible annoying click.

Cheers. There's no 'SH' mentioned on that screen on my phone. If it's something to do with 'Device Serial Number', then it starts with HT23CW. I guess that would make it an earlier version?

Yeah that's quite an early one.
SH is manufactured in Shanghai, HT in Taiwan.
The 23 means March (24 is April, etc), the C means 12th day.
