i dont know if its there when i bought the phone , but i noticed it 2 days back a small bulging just above HTC logo on back of the phone ...
i think it the heating part of phone ...
i tried to take some pics but cant get to see it ..
check if any body has it ...
That is odd..
The back of mine is completely flat/flush, even when I put a ruler against it, there is not the slightest bump.
I'd take it back to the shop and tell them about it!
I assume something has expanded, like the battery. Take it back before it's too late, as the last thing you want is it getting worse, or something to happen like the battery to suddenly stop working!
Edit:
Could you provide maybe a side-on shot so we can see how elevated it is? Like lay it face down on a table and take a photo of the side, and possibly hold something straight like a ruler, that way it'd be easier to see

I see it now, definitely nothing like that on my HOX. I highly recommend you take it back to the shop (if it's not too late) in case it could lead to something breaking.

Looks like the battery has some problems. I suggest not to.use it anymore just in case. If it is a battery problem, it could explode....

@Op, horrible for you indeed,.
My suggestion, send it back for repair or replace.
Good luck!

Should do, if you bought the phone within the last 28 days or something. You'd get one on the spot I think.
If you are past that, it will probably be sent for repair and fixed or replaced.

Even I have a slight bulge on my htc one x it's hardly 20 days old. I think many are having this issue . Htc should replace our handsets
Definatley a replacement job, nothing like I've seen.
As stated before mine is completely flat.
I really suggest getting that thing replaced. If that has anything to do with the battery or the placement of the heat, it can be very dangerous. I've heard of batteries expanding and bursting. I really suggest getting rid of that phonw, and if it burst when your using it. You can have a serious burn on your hands. Good luck

This caused me to go crazy and test mine to see if it bulged! Luckily, I can thankfully conclude, it has not

Htc take note of this . And test it if it's a global problem or not . We've spent a fortune for this phone. Kindly replace all devices with the problem
Have you taken it to a service center? What did they say? Because I have the same problem here :\
And also, do you by any chance use a silicon case? Because (call me crazy, an idiot, a nonsensical airhead, whatever) I suspect that it might have something to do with it
device not dead yet ... the dude is still rolling ...

Just want to see how many of you guys have a HOX that creaks at the back and what you've done with them?
Mines started creaking, can't return it been over 28 days currently on second replacement. Spoke to DAP who said I'd need to send it to their partner for repairs. But doubting what condition it'll come back in!

Do you meant the tick tick sound at back near camera when you shake? If so it comes from every phone

No that's common. It's the body that creaks when you press around the back.

You not going for the S3 then mate? And i had that with first phone i had and got it replaced. Was in the first week i noticed it so returned it back straight away..Was the white one. Got a grey one now and it works fine no issues at all
Nah, think I may give the S3 a miss this time. Sense is just a better experience than TouchWiz. This phone will only get better.
Will give it a week or so before returning it back to HTC for a repair. Will see if creaking goes or not as no other issues apart from that.
I expect another Samsung device will be anticipated after iPhone 5 release maybe that will be the one to rule them all. The note 2!

what in regards in having it in a case? if you have it in a case that maybe stop the creaking..and yeah either Note 2 or Iphone 5 or even Nexus maybe the phones to go for instead of this s3..
To be honest i am more than happy with the One X and if we can get AOKP or cm9 working on this bad boy as the last versions i tried on the s2 i would be happy

It only creaks in a case if you press hard. So not too bothersome. Naked it creaks if pressed with pressure. Q3 onwards should be good to see what we get.

Out of the box my screen was loose on the left side. I pushed it in and now it's not clicking when I push it in. Exept from when the phone gets warm its a little clicking sound and the screen is flexible right under the charging outtake left side.
Is it possible that the screen will totally get loose again later? It's now 2 days old. Ht24.
Any way you fix it when the phone is warm?

WOW you have gone through 12 handsets.. HTC should be shamed.. This must be costing them a fortune in replacements.. They are probably doubling production just to keep up with the duds!
Personally I would take it back. .As a poster said above it isn't what you paid for..
Yes. Thanks for your opinions. I will return it. And wait for s3 or a newer batch. I'm pretty tired of returning and ordering new ones.

look if you place a case over it then you will hardly notice it. i am going through the same thing as you..3rd handset i am on now. problem my carrier will only repair it so my last hope is HTC if to replace it or not..if they say to me they will repair it then i can wait till it is completely messed up ie the screen comes entirely loose and then return it..for now the case over the phone will do the job for me as it is not that big issue at the mo...
so for you like hamdir said return it and you probs get a new batch and will be better..
Hello fellow users,
Today my phone arrived, it is a t320e model (don't know if there are other models, i know the one from china/japan which is something with w i guess), and sadly it has some problems with the back panel at the camera slot - it is a little bit of. The guy who assembled the thing, I think it was drunk, or 'beginner'.
The good news is, I tested the phone at the shop, and they have a good policy about buy-back in 30 days. So I imediately spotted the problem and the guy from the shop said that "You can have this one home with you, I'll place an order now, and we will call you when your replacement gets here.". Don't know how good you will see this photo:
View attachment 1097448
After arriving home, I've discovered another disturbing issue. The backlight from the virtual buttons are leaking into the screen. Basically you can see it if they are lit and you have a black wallpaper (or sms app open). It looks very ugly, and I'm glad that I'll get a replacement in a few days. Hopefully it will be bug free and I will enjoy the phone but I know that these issue (maybe not the first one, but the second) are known and several users reported them. It is sad to say that HTC released crap quality builds (i'm talking about the casing) and if the problem persist with all the replacements (during this 30days of buy-back), with sadness I will get my money back and buy another phone.

Otherwise the phone is a good piece at this price range and the camera + display blew me away. I didn't tested further because it did not have juice and now it is charging, but I'll report further when I will done my testing on it. And report again when the replacement is in my hands.
PS: yeah, I know. photos are crap quality. took them with an ipod 4th generation -> CRAP!

There are spare housing elements on ebay and etradesupply. A full housing set is around 40 USD. You will need some skills to replace it yourself though.

Pics? Just wanna see the damage, I HAVE two dogs and I'm terrified when their around my phone.
P.s. yup, get it from etradesupply. Plus there is a thread around here somewhere about instructions on disassembly and reassembly.
There can only be one, the chosen ONE.
I'm going to tell you right now its probably better to leave it how it is as long as its functional. It takes a lot of time and effort for this repair here is a guide for it I wish you the best of luck.( http://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/HTC+One+Teardown/13494/1)

Even if they did you can't say its anywhere near as easy as the galaxy s4 or s3. The phone is not meant to be pulled apart that's one of the reason for the uniebody design. I will say most of there guides that I have followed has never told me wrong and are extremely informative. The whole point of me posting it is just to show op what he's in for.

I have been using my HTC One M8 for more than 2 weeks now and only yesterday I realized that the Metal Plate / Speaker grill coming up slightly below the front facing camera.
When I press it down it will stick back and look perfect but then again after some time it will come up slightly again.
It is annoying. Is there anyway I can fix this on my own or do I have to take it to HTC for repair?
I have attached 2 pictures. The first one shows the problem below the front facing camera and the second one showing how it is perfect after I pressed it down.
Anyone else having this problem?
I did on the left side. I simply pushed it down really hard for a minute and it hasn't come back.

I have pressed down on the area and held it for 1 to 2 mins. It sticks for a while and then raises up slightly again. I believe it is a glue issue. Hope. HTC will fix it for me.
I have rooted my phone and I am worried they may not help me out.
I would unpeel it, add a very small amount of glue. Try HTC first though.

Yeah I will try with HTC first. I am sure they can do a better job to fix this as they have to remove the metal grill to dismantle the phone so they must have some experience removing and reinstalling the metal grill.
Exactly same issue here... Poor build quality issues again..

I guess you must have got your phone long back ! Does yours show the same behaviour again ?
How was the device after the service ? Most people including me,experienced scratches on the display. Was your treated in a similar way ? Lemme know...
