[Q] Should I return my handset?

Ok so these are the symptoms my phone has:
1. Very small in perfection in the polycarbonate on the back right hand side. Looks like a small hairline crack but it's not a crack its smooth. Doesnt really bother me but I do know it's there...
2. Small mark under the screen, only visable on dark backgrounds or when looking at a black image. Not sure if it's one of these "yellow spots" people have mentioned but so far after 5 days it's still there.
3. Fruit Ninja lags a lot. Other tegra games seem so so but the screen gets very hot and also the spot under the camera ring.
4. If I tilt the phone slightly to the right for example in this forum I can see small pattern (slantered) on the screen.
5. When using the keyboard in landscape mode the predictive text bar moves about.
6. Some times when I press the power button to switch the screen off it comes back on as if its stuck slightly.
7. Some other small software glitches.
Would you ask for a replacement given these items?

Yes, you should bring it back for a replacement.
The crack and the mark under the screen is worth replacing it, you've spent money on a product that isn't as good as they clamed, so a broken phone.
I'm taking mine back tomorrow.. damn yellow spots

i returned mine for the yellow spot issue the day after i got it, got an exchange for another, couldn't be happier, with the lag and such its all just software and its kinda what you'd expect getting the new device at release, wait for some patches and see how it goes, but id exchange for the yellow spot issue anyday

Yes do it but just have to hope the replacement doesn't have any issues itself.

Returning my One X... for a replacement

The screen flickering is persistent now, and the top half of the screen is darker than the lower half. So, it's going back.
Replacement swap on Tuesday.
I had a thought today about why the screen may have darkened. I'd read about heat being an issue with yellowing the display, and wondered if the GPU had caused it to go darker?
One of the first things I did after the first charge was play Reckless Racing 2 for a while - and it got quite hot by the camera and on the screen itself. Could the heat from the Tegra have discoloured the screen glue at the top end of the screen?
This was while I still had the yellow spots - which disappeared after a few hours of screen-on time.
I think I'll "burn-in" the screen using Display Tester on my next one before doing anything that gets the CPU hot.
What do you think? Uneven heat on the display causing it to discolour on the top half? Anyone else had this? You can notice it on the Google homepage or any white screen (like on Display Tester).

can you take a photo of it? the so called uneven?..

i had this on my One X, uneven green in white and tint all gone after a week of use, the screen is perfect white now

So you're saying it sorted itself out after a while?

out of box it was yellowish yes and and whiter at the bottom, now its perfect, its known thing since the iPhone4 launch, screen lamination glue needs time to settle

Hi everyone, had my one X for a week now and while I love it, I have just noticed I've got a yellow dot on the lower left corner of the screen. Anyone else had issues like this, thinking of taking it back. Shame coz its an awesome phone. What's this screen test app everyone's talking about? Thanks

The YDOD (yellow dot of death)

Do we know what the cause is yet? I only have one (top left corner) but now its there I can't take my eyes off it. Do we think its a glue issue as seen in the iPhone and will it disappear after time? Or is it something more sinister like too much pressure on the screen in that area.

I had one in the top-left corner as well. It hadn't disappeared after two weeks, so I returned it... Unfortunately, my DOA-period was already over, so I'm still waiting for a new one
If I were you, I'd exchange it while you've still got DOA-days left!

Im starting to think its too much pressure on the screen at that place. Because if i push on the screen near the yellow spot its getting bigger and more noticeable. So I dont think its glue in most cases.
After almost 2 weeks they havent disappeared or became less noticeable

The yellow spots on my One X were on the bottom right, bottom left and a few more along the left hand side. I'd say it was glue as all of the spots were entirely yellow ie; no normal part in the middle of the spot. After twelve days they hadn't lessened by any amount so the phone had to go back which is a bloody shame as I loved it apart from that one bloody issue. I'm just amazed that nobody spotted these spots during quality control.

Why so many threads about the same thing..

"Of death" implies the display killed your phone. You have a "yellow dot of annoyance."

[Q] HTC One V bottom cover issue

Hi there,
Just bought the HTC One V. The phone is really good so far but i have one issue with it, the bottom cover leaves a slight gap. i cut my sim card for it and there is still a gap.
Does anyone else has this issue?
Any suggestions
Thanks

Idon't have the issue. Mine fits perfectly. You shoul probably ask for a replacement.

I have problems with One V bottom cover too. It leaves a slight gap od the bottom left side (if you look the back of the phone).
This is my third One V.
First one had yellow ring around the display edges, T-mobile got me new immediatley. On second one display got unglued from the phone?!?!? I was amazed!! They gave me new next day.
And now the third one has problems with bottom cover.
I tried 3 different brand new phones in the T-mobile store and they all had this issue.
Honestly, now I hate this phone!
Can someone find why bottom cover cannot fit. Is microphone rubber pushing it out of the socket or is it somethig else??

Replacement. Mine doesn't have a gap either.

yellow stain on white screen.

Hi, just wondering if anyone has this problem. On the white screen as well as camera, a yellow stain has appeared on the top, like a coffee stain on a page. Can't take a screen shot because it only appears on the screen. If pressed, it disappears for a moment and comes back. It's not as clear as before but still there. Most likely a hardware problem but wondering if it's possible to fix. Cheers.

probably not fixable by any software means mate,if its still under warranty, get screen replaced. its common thing with one x, along with speaker problems, creaking sounds etc.. what can you do, nothing is perfect

Been lucky til now. Thought of holding out for sense 5 but guess it's time to get the one. Had this phone for a year now.
