One X Smells of Pineapple

Comment if your One X smells of pineapple, Mine does.
Give it a sniff.
I'm being deadly serious.

Not doing it, I'm sure this is one of those things to just make people smell their phone. LOL
... Good try though

Mine does, it smells stronger when I sniff the micro USB port. Yummy

Wowy! I actually love that smell!! Electronics, gadgets..anything new Our HOX heats up so much that the smell is distinct

Haha, I knew it wouldn't be taken seriously, but when it gets warm it actually has a smell akin to Pineapple!

Lol, unbelievable but true. The smell has indeed something common with the fruit

Smell the 3,5 jack. Wonderful

Funnily enough, this is actually true! I'm gonna look like a weirdo now...

Aaaaaand, here's your answer guys. 3rd paragraph: http://techcrunch.com/2012/04/24/everyone-smell-your-iphone/

I thought mine did too, but now it smells of cat, because she sat on it and I couldn't find it for ages, until she started to vibrate!

out of the box, since i just got mine this afternoon, it does smell nice. i can't be sure if it's the hand soap i use or it comes out smelling fruity, though.

Maybe an MRI is in order?

Wouldn't say pineapple......

My Power button smells of strawberry jam because I was eating toast and playing with the phone at the same time and I ended up getting sticky jam into the gap around the power button! The micros USB port smells a bit like pineapple.

We'll all be filing claims against HTC at a later date now as no doubt we're sniffing in something cancer inducing lol

Toddler threw wife's Sensation in a coffee cup

We do have a subsidized phone available through T-Mo, so I'm inclined to use that.
GS3 seems like the obvious choice, but I'm loathe to hand her electronics destroying hands a new phone (this is her 3rd phone in just over 2 years. The others were similarly destroyed).
I'd be very tempted to hand her the GN and keep the GS3
How annoyed am I going to be with the GS3?
Other ideas?
And why couldn't she have waited a month until the Galaxy Note 2 came out?

Why not get her an older phone like the defy lol

Cheap flip phone/blackberry/low end android phone off of eBay until she learns to be responsible with an expensive phone. Save the subsidies for yourself.

Agreed. Check Craigslist too.
Honestly the Lifeproof case is a good idea too.

Same thing happened to me. My wife broke 3 phones and a laptop in just over a year. She now has an old flip phone and only uses the desktop computer. Electronics are way too expensive to be careless with.

It's a fairly new desktop. She actually prefers to use it. It gets expensive replacing electronics every other month. I wish I could somehow force her to use only Internet Explorer. That would be the ultimate punishment.

Perhaps you could look around and checks phones that will have a nice resale value right now. Not sure what choices you have with tmobile. A gs3 could be had for $200 upgrade price, flipped for $500+ and then buy a nice little mid range expendable phone that will get the job done. Or maybe buy two. This method has it's goods and bads, but if a smartphone is really needed for phone amd text, and the extras for distraction/minimal tasks and getting on the web for fun, reading or tips on breasts hurt while breastfeeding then this might be a good path. Otherwise, get a nice little unlocked nokia or moto for cheap until toddler destruction improves.

Or a defy as suggested. My friend accidently dropped his off the top of a 2 story building while taking a picture. He walked down, picked it up, entered a caption and posted it (he was using instagram). There's just a little nick in one of the corners now.
Also it's waterproof, so that helps with the drink issues.

The key word I see here is toddler, give the toddler that busted sensation. That way he/she has their own phone to dunk in coffee. The other thing is to teach your wife the proper way to deal with water damage, ie battery pull and rice.

And teach her not to put her phone in front of a baby. And tell her she won't like it the next time it happens.
Will the next nexus have a longer screen?

why does she need a phone in the kitchen in the first place?

Fast overheating + cameralens loose

When my one X is charging on textile like a pillow or sth it heats up like crazy. Anyone with the same problem?
Also my lens looks like it is gonna give up on me any day now..
I always take great care of my phone, before this one had a hd2 had it for 3 year, not a single scratch. I hate the cheap ass build quality.
I won't buy a dumb plastic piece of sh.. anymore. HTC please, for your next phones, use aluminium.
I wonder, can the heating problems be fixed?

Well, y'know, you could put it on something thermally conductive rather than a thermal insulator.

God bless polycarb - removing dents

Hi all,
Not sure if anyone has already posted this but one really great thing about the HOX is its trivial to remove even really chunky dents and scratches from the case. I had a few caused by dropping on tarmac ta at looked really nasty.
Some 400 grade wet and dry, job done. Wrap the paper round a cloth to make it nice and squishy, rub away. 30 seconds later - good as new...

ive dropped my one x like 30 times on ceramic flooring, no dents, no scratches, even dropped it like 3 times on screen(got a sand scratch).
the only thing i hated about the design is the extruding back camera, that got alot of scratches.

Optimus G Pro is drop proof

Someone asked about fragility of G Pro
jesi.james said:
Im also a bit more concerened about phone durability. I take care of my things but I want a little more cushion for when accidents happen. Is the OG Pro just as fragile as the s4? Has anyone managed to accidentally crack theirs?

Looking on it in near sight I've already noticed one thing. The glass doesn't cover full size of the phone but instead has .2mm spare space to the edges of phone. Also the glass in not surrounded by banking board. Also the glass has beveled edge, about 70° sharp.
So I presume that the glass would not crack even if the phone would be dropped from 6 feet height. Unless of course it would be dropped flat fall on screen
Another indirect proof of that is here. Watch Note 2 has cracked glass when G Pro doesn't have severe damages

If you think this device is drop proof you are delusional. I haven't watched the linked video nor do I need to. The front is glass and could crack from a 6" fall. Many things factor in here including luck.

Well, someone eventually will test it, people drop their phones here and there.
And also I'll attach here link to this topic Optimus G = UNBREAKABLE

Well no phones drop proof obviously but ive had 2 friends that had lg phones and ive had one myself and I can tell u theyre probably the some of the best built on the market. My connect was dropped, thrown, stepped on, kicked and all manner of torment and worked like the day I bought it till the day I traded it in on this. Ive seen lg phones survive multiple (so many I lost count) drops that would have sent a samsung or htc device to the scrap heap...

Exactly. My wife has a One X. She has dropped, thrown it onto a hard floor with force, and let's our 3 old play with it like it's his. It has a ton of scratches, but hasn't broken. Some were saying when it released that it was super fragile. I guess since hers has been abused it must be the toughest phone ever made. Right? No, she's been extremely lucky.

I dropped my GPro out of my lap when I was getting out of my truck and it hit the asphalt pretty hard on a corner and barely nicked it. The phone pretty much looks flawless. Seems durable to me as long as u don't drop it face first. Lol

I'm assuming by patio you mean stone/brick/concrete/pavers, right? If that's the case, most phones wouldn't be too fond of an 18" drop.

Yeah, but I've had other phones hit asphalt from 4-5 feet high on the corner and survive with only nick in the bezel. My post is just a warning that this phone is definitely not "drop proof". I've only had the OGP for four days and already have to shell out $ for an insurance claim. Sad thin is my case I ordered is supposed to show up today.
