One V quality issues ? - HTC One V

Recently I was thinking about buying HTC One V to replace my old Nokia E72. However I have heard about some quality issues like yellow spots on screen, annoying light leakage, phone being dead after a week etc. Are these issues still there or they were present mostly in the early manufactured phones in March & April ? Should I take the risk of buying one, a minor fault might not be that much problem for me but I am no mood of getting my phone replaced again & again.
And I am living in Lahore, Pakistan, where would u suggest me to get this set from ? Thanks for reading, I am waiting for some advice.

just dropped by to say I am using this for a few weeks now, no such problems

I have not had any problems and mine was manufactured in April I believe. Knock on wood. Seems like a solid phone.

been using mine for weeks, its a nice phone~ and I don't have such problems

I bought mine the week they were first released. I never had yellow spots or overheating. You can only see the light leak in the dark from behind through the USB port. I think it's a great device.

Go for it!
I've been using this phone for 1 and a half month now. it's a great phone. it looks and feels premium in my hand. the camera performance is decent in outdoor and lil bit crappy in indoor with low light condition. the sound quality (earphone) is also decent compared to lets say Galaxy W which has same price. anyway, there are brand new HTC phone are going to be released later this month with the same price range you need to consider. they are HTC Desire V and Desire VC.
One V vs Desire V/VC:
better processor: Snapdragon S2 vs Snapdragon S1 (really??? is it 2010??)
better GPU: Adreno 205 vs Adreno 200 (you gotta be kidding me???)
coming from respected 'One' family vs Desire family (Desire was the award-winning phone back in 2010. but today is 2012)
decent camera: 720p video recording vs I don't know.
Desire V/VC vs One V:
bigger screen 4" vs 3.7"
better looking (in my opinion). HTC One X look vs HTC Legend Look.
double SIM card: GSM&GSM on Desire V and GSM&CDMA on Desire VC.
bigger slightly bigger battery: 1650mAh vs 1500mAh
so I think if you want the look of the mighty One X, sure you can get the new Desire series. but if you prefer phone's performance, HTC One V is for you. its worth it..

Thanks for the replies. I'll probably buy this phone then, it seems like most problems were present only in phones manufactured in earlier months.

For me, I'm really disappointed with the plastic body of the phone. It makes the phone looks like a toy when holding in hand despite being the flagship phone.
I don't care how strong the polycarbonate body is, even holding S2 feel better in the hand.

In my opinion, the One X looks much better built than the S2. The polycarbonate does not look cheap and plasticky.
If you can wait a month, the Galaxy S III will probably be announced, and the other competing phones like the Optimus 4x will start popping up. Really, this is the first quad-core phone and it is displaying all the telltale qualities of a 1.0 phone, despite HTC's supposed commitment to quality over quantity. This is also their first unibody polycarbonate phone, so two firsts is a really big gamble for a phone buyer. The first dual-core phone last year was the Optimus 2x. Tons of issues and even a class action lawsuit. Even if this is the one you plan to buy no matter what, I would still give it a month to iron out software kinks and hardware manufacturing issues, and then buy a later version of it.
Would be better to see what the competition comes out with and then making a decision. Also gives time for the price to drop.
To buy, or not to buy, that is the question.
I will probably wait till Galaxy S III gets released (22 may) and then decide.
The fact is that whatever phone you buy, a better one will be released soon enough afterwards that you'll wonder if you should have waited - but if you play that game, you end up waiting forever. Which is why I don't have a tablet yet.
With the One X, to some extent I think it depends on how much you like HTC Sense. The SGS3 might well have better specs, but I like Sense, so I wanted to stick with HTC.
I've only had it 2 days, so it's difficult to give a detailed opinion. But I like the feel of the phone, external build quality seems good, the screen is fantastic, and Sense 4.0 is a major improvement over previous versions. My only concern is the lack of a microSD card, but in all honesty I rarely filled up the 32GB card I had in my DHD, so I'm hoping that won't be an issue. The only issues I've seen so far are all software, and updates will come.
I haven't unlocked and rooted yet, as I have a 14 day cooling off period to see if I'll keep it or not. But early signs are that I will.
I do like sense a lot it complements android for me. Are mist issues softwaree or hardware

Should screen flickering and lag stop me from buying?
My 2 year-old Desire has almost had its time, since it started randomly corrupting my card over the last couple of months so I've been looking for a new phone. The moment I saw the One X, I knew this phone was for me - big screen, a a truckload of cores, ICS w/ hardware buttons, too-large internal storage, awesome camera. Under no circumstances am I buying a Samsung or LG phone, so waiting for the competition is off my to-do list and I love and have always loved (even much more since ICS came around) HTC Sense, so here goes the other major complaint I've seen. To be honest, I don't care if video recording doesn't look pristine - I'll probably never use it anyway.
My only concern is about a couple of problems I've read about on this forum - screen flickering and scrolling lag. I know there are also some apps missing from the X's play store, but I'm almost certain they'll be back with Tegra 3 - optimized versions very soon, along with many other interesting new one. So the question is as follows: Are these 2 problems big enough to hold me back until the next device I like (which may well be the next high-end HTC)? What would you do? Thanks!

Thinking about buy?

For months I've been trying to upgrade. (At&t straight talk etc.) I was going to buy an old my touch 4g slide put it on straight talk but right now its hard to find. So the HTC one v is it worth it (cdma version) would I enjoy it more the I enjoyed my ov? Do you think more roms will be made? Tough decision seeing as I work at lil ceazers not making much lol. So big question is it a good phone?
My customized tapatalk signature
I know there's some awesome devs like jmz working in the CDMA side, but until htc releases the source it'll be slow going.
I came to the OneV from an optimus v, and i love this phone way more. Even if you look at just the hardware, it's a big step up (or at least it feels like it).
If you're planning on doing straight talk, that's GSM not CDMA. Only the virgin mobile OneV is CDMA.
Would you say its worth the upgrade then?

I was waiting for the price to go down, but I bit the bullet based on 3 things:
1. the screen! one look at the fonts and I was in love!
2. ICE CREAM SANDWICH!
3. The development! In a span of 3 months this community/devs have done a wonderful job in showcasing the future of this phone!
I don't want to come off as too negative about this phone, as it is very beautiful and I would probably buy it again. So just be aware that this post is mostly focusing on the negatives.
While single core 1ghz isn't the fastest around, it is fast enough for an android phone. In fact I noticed no significant speed difference to my 1,5ghz dualcore Sensation. And HTC even released a 600mhz phone this year, the desire C. In my experience the utility of more CPU power in android phones maxes out at around 1 ghz. More CPU power and screen real estate just means lower battery life. And the battery life on this thing is pretty much the best you're going to find in the ICS camp. With many of the big-and-fast alternatives, if you're actually using it you're not going to take that many steps away from the charger.
That being said, at the moment I'm slightly pissed off about some aspects of this phone. That's mostly because it feels like a repackaged 2010 phone. It is very pretty with the aluminum unibody and all, compared to this even new high end devices look cheap and plasticy. But you have to like the design, because it's not the most cost-effective hardware. There are a few year-old android phones around with the same hardware, that you can get used for like 100 bucks less, and most of them come with a full list of polished ICS custom roms. With the One V you pay extra for the design and for getting ICS out of the box. And that's not even of much use if you're capable of installing a custom rom.
I bit the bullet because I was running out of other options that fit my preferences. I wanted a three-button setup, and less than 4", and pretty much all alternatives in that camp seem to have some crippling flaw, like crappy battery life or nonexistent GPS capabilities or a really mirrory screen. So far I haven't noticed any flaws on the V, except for the inexplicable button and usb-plug placement, and that the front speaker is really quiet. But most importantly, since it's a new phone, and a non-high-end device, custom rom availability is only just starting to build up. For example there is still no way to get real status bar toggles, which my first smartphone from 2009 with Cyanogen 6 could do.
In the end it comes down to whether you like the design, or whether you care about raw specs more. I'm just not as interested in counting cpu cores, so it's fine for me. Don't get me wrong, it runs perfectly smooth. But it is just 400mhz up from a Legend.
If you like the nose and the aluminum unibody, and prefer a not-too-huge phone, then go for it. But if you are looking for the most price-effective hardware, then buy something used with the same capabilities. You just have to be aware that you pay extra for the fancy design here.
When I was buying I was between One V and Samsung Galaxy S advance...they were similary priced on my carrier.
I choose One V becouse of this comunity and development going on around ICS at the moment, and "S advance" is stuck on 2.3.6. without much hacks to choose.
I was wrong anyway. ICS look great but it lag on this phone like hell. Anyone buying should realy try it first. I mean my girlfriend's crappy LG optimus L3 is a ferrari compared to this. And it gets worse...HTC specification is a LIE. True specs are 2gb ROM/ 1gb user available, cca 365 mb RAM ?!?
Camera looks more like 3MP. with 5Mp mode you get only bigger sized pictures and vid's but cannot capture more detail...like upscaled 3mp camera.
ONE V specs look like leftovers from desire series with a new outer shell. If I've got 2nd chance to choose a phone I'd rather go for a used Desire series and wait for a price drop on good ICS phones simply becouse desire is snappier and One V is slooow.
Hope this helps

For me cm9, nonsense rom and even suprimo 4.1 made it respond faster but still not even comparable to 2.3.x devices
the HTC One V is a HORRIBLE PHONE! You will NOT be able to hear anyone you talk to, mine has been like this since new and all sound lvls are maxed...im forced to use the crappy loud speaker....i will never suggest a HTC phone to anyone since im locked into a 3 year with this crappy phone..
i guess it all comes from what phone you come from and your budget. i came from a huawei ascend (junk) i love this phone! My wife had a huawei ascend 2 (junk) and i got her on of these and she loves it. I am rooted and running a custom rom, she is rooted and running stock with no bloat. i am sure there are many phones out there that are better than this one, but for our carrier and budget, we can't beat it!

hell if u think its a crappy phone then u dont deserve to be here.....love what you have!

[Q] Why did you buy One x at the first place?

I know this sound... a little 'meh'
But... I dont know, And thats why im posting this thread. Because I wanna know.
I was an owner of HTC Desire. That was the best phone that I had, I tot I made a wrong move of not buying iPhone 3gs, but i made a right move. It have had many memories... Thats where im exposed to XDA and have this rom tweaking and flashing obsession. It come to the day when I broke my Desire, It fell down from my pocket while I was running on a rainy day. I cracked the screen and leave it open and let the rain goes inside my desire. It broke my heart soo much.
After that I bought Galaxy tab as my second phone, then S2, Then GNexus.
After getting bored with Samsungs, It got mainstream. I go back to HTC and I made the right move again. Mind sharing ur stories guys?
I liked the screen and it has a quad core processor

It started with using my friend's Galaxy S (first release) that made me love the Android ecosystem.. then had time with HTC Wildfire,,, den jumped to Wildfire S.. as u said with Desire,,I too began to be obsessed with all those rooting & flashing stuffs and wanted a huge upgrade from that.. hence got my One X,,white in color,,beautiful,,vivid & powerful.. ) so happy with my One X... And yeah, I'm still using my Wildfire S along with a Nokia..

only got mine because at the time i needed a new phone and plus they were giving me a good deal plus the handset free so i thought why not..very happy with my One X so no point thinking about upgrading at least till say next summer the latest..
gorgeous screen, sound is amazing when listening to music and i just love my phone.
Swapped my GNexus for mine
iPhone 3GS(Total BS!)> HTC Desire (Great phone but the colour and design depressed me when it got old) > Samsung GS2 (Loved it but just wasn't enough)
Then I couldn't decide weather to stick with Samsung and get the S3 or Get the One X... Took me a while to decide but ended up buying the One X (Great Decision!)
Started with the legendary HD2. That's when I start to make love with Android. I can spend hours reading how to flash custom rom on it. Then the digitizer broke because of the design's flaw. =\ Touch screen doesn't work anymore. Early this year, my dad asked me to choose either iPhone 4S, Galaxy S3 or One X. Decided to go with One X because of the Tegra 3 Quad Core plus the design and I hate Apple's restriction. Don't have any interest at all with S3 since I kept thinking it as cheap plastic . Honestly I was disappointed with One X at first because of WiFi and Screen Flickering Issue but I got my replacement phone which is a lot better and now letting it stay virgin until I'm sure there's no more hardware's fault.
I had a Desire HD and an Acer A500 tablet. I saw the difference in Tegra and non-tegra devices, so as soon as HTC launched a tegra device, I had to have it and my contract was ending . Also I have a GNex at work so the screen of the S3 was a no-go for me (even if it had a tegra cpu). I was a bit disappointed that the unibody wasn't aluminum, but I'm glad it still has a premium feel and not the one of a glossy plastic.

Because it was a deal so good I would have been sectioned if I refused (straight up trade for my Sensation).
I wanted a touch screen phone that had a large screen, I have large hands and just cant cope with the size of the iPhone. The other limitations of the iPhone annoyed me as well, but the ability to type in it was the biggest downer for me. At least with the one x and other 'droids, you can swap the keyboard for Swift Key or Swype etc... as well as the keyboard area been larger and better for bigger fingers.
I went via a Bold 9900, thought that would be better for typing on, which for me, i guess it was but missed a lot of apps.
One X is the best for me at the moment. Good selection of apps, good screen, quite quick when scrolling. Always felt there was some amount of lag on the iPhone 4 that I had when trying to do stuff.
S.
Because I love HTC phones and Sense, so I always get their flagship device. I had to go through 3 before I got a faultless device but now I have 1 I'm not disappointed.

Best screen + best processor for mobile gaming + htc sense
The slogan "Quietly Brilliant" turned me into HTC desire which its quite true, We are brilliant and 'quiet' about it.... Compared to you know that fruit company.. With that, I keep buying HTC stuffs... Addicted.. I just hope that next time there will be another Nexus device by HTC
Had many dumb phones, before finally getting the awesome HTC desire and wow that was a great phone even
Now still compared to those silly iPhone things. It was just so simple with Android and the look of sense is great aswell as
The abillity to flash aosp roms. Would have stayed with desire if it had the ability to run sense 4, but it has seen its best days
And the developers have moved on. So looked at a change and it came down to sgs3 and hox, took some time but in the end I hot the
Hox and the wife got the sgs3, but very happy with my choice.
i love HTC + One X design + HTC Sense + OrdroidX i just miss S-OFF then it would be awesome
Love OneX
I came from a retired Droid X, one core processor, low resolution, great camera (by those times), with CM7, etc.
When I realizaed 4 core precessors where about to release, I decided to upgrade my phone.:fingers-crossed:
I used to see reviews from this phone, and I start to love this phone little by little. So when I finally see the opportunity to buy a new phone I didn´t hesitate to choose One X.
Now I´m quite happy with this phone (the screen, camera, beats eq, processor and body design are a beauty), I also start loving the sense skin, so elegance and funcional. But the best thing to appreciate is all the devs that give us the opportunity to customize and become our X´s better.:victory:
Please hit the Thanks button if you like my comment. I need them to participate on other posts.
I got mine because my desire was playing up, htc sense, quad core and a big screen.

Tegra games! And also the gorgeous screen (not really a fan of AMOLED)
Because coming from an HTC HD, I wanted Tegra 3 power. And since HOX was the first and the nicest phone with that chip...
Because I dreamt (still am) about using my phone as a netbook with 3-way booting (Windows 8 ARM, Ubuntu, Android) with an MHL cable and small-form BT mouse + keyboard.
I've been a HTC boy my whole life and wanted the latest and greatest at the time. Quad core and screen size tops it off along with being a big follower of the venom team which make any phone better

HTC one x and Google nexus 4

So we all know the news of the new nexus, the 16gb costs the same as the HTC one x if I sell mine. All of the internal specs seem great I'm not bothered about sd card, non removable and lte. I just wanted to know is anyone else was buying it by trading their hox in, I just care to know if the camera quality, screen quality, DAC are better then the hox because these are the main reasons why I would buy it since the hox has bad output speaker, battery life, overheats and I don't what a phone with a worser screen then my current or I'll feel like I've downgraded instead.
The camera that is used is a Sony bsi camera in the nexus 4, which is the same as the iPhone 5's. I do like the hox camera but it is behind the iPhone 5, s3 and lumia 920 in terms of quality and colour reproduction. I was watching the verge video which stated that one of the main people behind the nexus 4 said they spent a lot of time making it good at low light shoots which the hox suffers in. The one x+ is good too but I don't like the 40nm CPU and the material used as it gets dirty to easily. So what do you lot think is it worth the trade or are you happy with the hox?

I've only ever had HTC android phones (Hero>Desire HD>Sensation>EVO 3D>One X), before that I was using HTC windows phones, but I'm very tempted.
I am also so very tempted to do this, I really like the Nexus devices and I've had it with HTC !!
How would you sell yours? Ebay? And then purchase the Nexus 4?
What happens if I've got 16 months of a 2 year contract left? Could I just sell the HOX, buy the Nexus 4 and then pay the contract for the minutes? etc?
Yeah I'm trading...I think..well till I read the reviews
Partly due to aosp. Nice looking.
I'm not adding much to trade though.they can jog on

I'm going to try Gumtree first, then eBay then buy a N4 with the money.
You can put your sim into any unlocked phone and continue paying your bill as normal.
Hmm I'm happy with my HOX but I want the latest and greatest. The major selling point is that it is a nexus device.
I could recycle my HOX for £195 that wouldn't leave me far off the money needed, but I'm not sure its worth it.
My one X does everything I could possibly want at the moment.
If the N4 had LTE capability, maybe I would be completely swayed.

I'm broke, but selling my HOX should cover most of the cost
I absolutely love my HTC One X, it's a great machine,
but I'm unhappy what is happening in this device section.
People are ignoring forum rules, no respect among each other, moaning about the device, comparing it with other manufacturers and so on.
Jelly Bean rocks on HTC One X, battery live is awesome and the rom flies.
I've see the Nexus 4 video but I don't like the design of the machine and the OS has some new stuff but not so impresive to my opinion.
Anyway if I sell my HTC One X, I'm going back to Microsoft, the HTC 8x or the Nokia 9200 are looking great.
I still doubt to choose between those two phones because the Nokia has a Carl Zeiss lens but also the HTC 8x seems to have a amazing camera with new technology.
So probably one of those machines will be my next phone.
Shame to hear that Leo.
Hope you can stay with your One X and also you can get a W8

im with you buddy..selling my phone and going for the Nexus 4...will be my first Nexus so looking forward to it...just need to sell this bad boy first though
For me HOX is amazing phone. Solid in hand, looks amazing. I really do not understand why battery life is bad .. i am having 48h with daily use.. at some point even more. With that kind a battery and stock rom 2days+ is great, isn't it? 3~5% battery loss in deep sleep (night time) 8~10h.
Agree that Nexus 4 should be good, better than HOX performance/camera wise. Still like the looks of HOX more than N4.
For a quad core beast... what do you think?
The previous single core phones I owned even couldn't make a full day without charging.

Just don't expect an HTC ONE X - grade screen.
On the Nexus 4, whites aren't white, more like very soft gray.
I have a Galaxy Nexus and am thinking of switching to a One X. Not sold yet, though, because of the device's speed and Android's ugly apps. Thinking of iPhone 5 (but am not rich so can't afford it) and Lumia 920 (same).

Having my HTC One X replaced by a HTC One X+?

Hello, today I've returned my phone to the local store, it had the WiFi issue, yellow spot on screen and the 'back' button did not light up.
I've read around that the problem is persistant on these devices, the shop owner said that they can replace it by the newer model, HTC One X Plus, if I pay 50 euro extra OR I can chose any other phone within the price range.
I really like the exclusive brand. In my eyes, it's like a BMW to cars, but without the quality control
I love how the phone feels, it has great specs and looks great, but all these issues are just not worth it.
Does the HoX+ still have the same common issues or am I safe to upgrade?

Hello, today I've returned my phone to the local store, it had the WiFi issue, yellow spot on screen and the 'back' button did not light up.
I've read around that the problem is persistant on these devices, the shop owner said that they can replace it by the newer model, HTC One X Plus, if I pay 50 euro extra OR I can chose any other phone within the price range.

imo the one x is more under development, with the one x+ you won't get all these roms... i would stay with one x
For 50 bucks I'd say get the new X+
There are less devs, but for as little as 50 bucks I'd get the new phone just to have the latest ajd something new again

I would say hold on for a Nexus 4......
What options within that price range do you have?
For the price get the HOX+ best of the HOX but slightly better. 64gb, slightly faster, improved audio, slightly bigger battery, improved front camera, JB straight out of the box, probably better finish. It's worth it

Does it still have WiFI yellow marks issues?

Gallaxy S3, HTC Windows Phone 8X and Sony Xperia T

I'd actually suggest the 8X - HTC makes great hardware, but they don't exactly have much luck with software - but from what I heard Windows Phone is very solid and runs great.
Just wondering if you could get One X+ battery inside One X ?
That is only thing i need, bigger battery.

It's in store's stock, I'd have it this week

I would get the One X +
The only phone i would be interested in after the One X would be the Nexus 4.. but with the battery reviews coming in, i would rather go with the X+.

Comparing the phones together, One X+ still seems to win, besides that it won't get updates as often as the Nexus 4. I don't like the on-screen buttons and round design at all. My choice will probably be the One X Plus I just want to know for sure: Are the WiFi / GPS / Bluetooth issues (poor contact with antenna) solved with the One X +?
Regards
I think upgrading to One X+ would be great. I would.

To be honest, I don't think that in the latest batches there are any of the infamous hardware faults present anymore, production quality has improved greatly. Mind you, I got a HT23 HOX back in April and never had any problems...whatsoever
..and my brand new HOX+ should arrive today
So, without being biased on my side...get it!
