I tried using my earbuds last night. The plug doesn't go in tight (it literally wiggles in the jack) and in no position that I held them, could I get them to work.
No problem here. It actually fits tight.

I've tried 3 different sets of headphones/earbuds. There something wrong with it. I'll go to the AT&T store tomorrow to get it exchanged.
It's a VERY tight fit and I had the same problem with my skullcandys when I first got it. You have to force them in, but they do work.

Yesterday, I took the device back to AT&T and swapped it for one that works with headphones. It was definitely a hardware problem (the new one has a very tight fit for headphones).
Now I'm have a new issue: I can't change the clock or effects on the lock screen, after the AT&T SW update came through (I don't know for sure that the update is the cause). The selection to change the settings used to be in its proper place under "Lock Screen Settings" (found in the display settings). Yesterday afternoon, I did a factory reset to see if it would fix the issue. At that point "Select Screen Lock" appeared under the Lock Screen selection in Display Settings (which can also be reached via the Lock Screen Settings when you push the Settings button while on a home screen). A couple hours later, the AT&T SW update came through. An hour or two after that, I noticed that the ability to change the Lock Screen clock and effects, was no longer there (and the clock widget was no longer in the widgets list).
To be clear: this isn't a matter of me not knowing how to make the change (I've already done so twice): 1) with my original phone and 2) with this phone, after replacing the original for the phone jack issue). The setting selections for Lock Screen Clock (and 4 app icons) and "Effects" are no longer there.
It works fine with me

yeah my head phones work perfect and are tight on the jack, and I also have updated to the latest software, and still can change all of my clocks and shortcuts no problem, did you do a factory rest and try again?

I couldn't change the settings, then did a factory reset. After which, I could change settings, then 3-4 hours later (AT&T SW update happened roughly at the mid point of the 3-4 hr time window), I couldn't change the settings.
Go to your home screen and hit Menu. Are the menu items not there?

Yes, Menu items are there. When I select Display>Lock Screen , the Clock settings and Effects selections are now gone. I did another factory reset, change the clock and reinstalled all of my downloaded apps. Within an hour of the factory reset, the Clock and Effects, selections that should be in the Lockscreen Settings were gone (so my speculation regarding the AT&T SW update wasn't valid).

Getting quite annoyed with this now. About half the time when I unlock my HOX by pulling the ring up, it launches into the dialer instead of the launcher. I thought I might have been accidentally dragging the quick launch icon, but just tested it about 20 times to make sure, and I can drag the ring anywhere on screen, after the quick launch bar has faded and it still happens.
This happening for anyone else?

Unlocking the phone brings you to the last open activity. If you lock your phone after using the dialer, you'll unlock it on the dialer. (Un)locking is not like pressing Home.

I know that. It does this no matter my last open app
this thing happen to me when i charging my phone.. my guess its has something to do with HOX screen sensitivity when on charging status..
yeah it seems related to the touch sensitivity issue when charging, mine does this occasionally.
Happens to me too. I think it has to do with bad coding and unfinished software. My previous phone was Dedire and never had any problems with it. But I'm very dissapointed with the hox. It seems as if it was built with only one thing in mind, get it oit before samsung. Bad move in terms of quality

just a follow up, not near a mains charger at the moment, and can't seem to reproduce when charging from PC.
Is everyone having it launch the dialer, and if so, do you all have the dialer as your first quicklaunch app?
Will be fiddling with this issue later on, because it's just weird
I noticed this when I first got this phone, I just moved the Dialer icon elsewhere on the Dock and it never happened again, strange but a non issue.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1775638
Pls read the above thread, just posted my theory there for this issue, its probably about time we start a proper thread for this issue.
I'm sure this is related to the charging issue, the charging problem screws up the touch's on the screen, which is why the phone app seemlingly appears randomly

So I won a bid on ebay about an almost new inc 2 with some problem
The car mode can not be turned off and when there is incoming call, the speaker is always on and under normal conditions apps won't have sound
After a search online, it seems to be a common problem about the usb dock connector, so I ordered a flex connector with usb dock online and replaced the one in my phone and the issues seems gone
Apps can have sound, incoming calls don't turn speakers on by themselves, and the phone doesn't goes to dock mode from time to time.
however, the steering wheel is still on the screen and I cannot get rid off this thing, any thoughts or suggestions? are there any indications the phone is still in dock mode? I've attached a pic about the strange icon. Your input is appreciated.
Another noob question is about the rom. I'm planning to flash this thing to pageplus prepaid, is it still able to get the possible ICS update from verizon? I've browsed the dev section and seems there are few ics or jb roms running on the device perfectly. Or after the phone is flashed to PPC, can I still install third-party roms without problem? I really want a rom that's stock android, i.e, not customized with bloatwares, like the stock rom in nexus phone.
Once again, thanks for your help.
Steering wheel icon - LMAO! I have to thank you for this post because I almost pooped myself reading this.
That's the location icon. You can get rid of it by flashing a ROM, assuming you have root. You do realize your phone is in airplane mode as well?

I have optimus t, first gen galaxy tab, and xoom tab now, but never seen this icon that's why

What's it for? Hell if I know. If you have the location services turned on in settings, it pops up. It is an annoyance. Most ROMs you will flash have the icon removed or the ability to remove the icon through tweaks or a patch.
I do agree - it does look a bit like a steering wheel.

Someone or me can root the stock rom then you can flash it, don't know about that mobile service but as long as the bands are compatible you should be able to do it. If you want rom without sense Aero has unofficial cm9 and condemned has one based on AOKP both are more pure android with no sense

You shouldn't need to flash the phone for it to work on pageplus. As long as it's a Verizon phone that was not originally sold as a prepaid device it should work as is.
Just out of curiousity, how did you screenshot with a stock rom

Maybe it's time to go for an aftermarket rom

Is there any way to permanently disable the dock mode? I never use it, except when it forces me to after I plug audio and charging cable in my car.

Bumpin for interest, i also have the same problem when ever i drive to work in the morn and i play pandora(off tapedeck headphone jack) i have to leave it off the charger and kill its battery. Otherwise it gets stuck in dock mode and i have to restart it, suuuper annoying
I've even frozen the system app that used to associate with dock mode. Still happens.

make a back up & delete all clock, dock, and alarm related apps....all.
Would it have the same effect if I froze everything first just to see if it affects it?
Sent from my R800x using xda app-developers app
Perhaps, IDK honestly.
So freezing everything related to clocks and alarms does nothing.
I did notice however when I was going through the system settings that there was a completely separate tab for docks. Maybe that can be removed by tinkering with the framework.res or systemui.res?

When I press the power button on my phone and put it down (whether it be a few inches or a few feet away) it will turn itself on for no reason. I have installed various air-push detectors, I have tried cleaning the USB port (note this phone isn't even a month old in my hands) but nothing is working. If you know what's going on and or how to fix it let me know. I'll post updates if I get it fixed.
I've had that happen many times and even after running a logcat I've never figured out what caused it. Sometimes an app requesting su has been the culprit but most of the time I have no idea.
So you never fixed it? I'll try auto granting and using logcat

i disabled the alarm and as soon as i was going to say it might have worked, i turn my phone off and literally a second later it turned back on
well in that case you probably have to disable one app at a time and test for a day or so to figure out which one causes the wake up:banghead:

I just bought the Porsche Design Mate 9 and a lovely thing it is.
However, straight out of the box, the strangest thing. No home screen icons. Not one!
The status bar has everything on it, the menu slides down, the settings menu works fine. Calls are received fine, apps can be downloaded via the play store (online albeit), but no apps on the home screen.
I've tried a factory reset, wiped the cache, played around with the settings and display, but still no apps.
I have never seen anything like this ever.
I can't return it as I won't be able to get another.
What could this be please? Is there something I have overlooked?
Thanks in advance.

UPDATE :
This is obviously a Mate 9 Pro family issue.
My PD was sent to the dealer who did something and sent it back. Working 95% well now (will discuss the 5% in another thread)
My brother bought the non-PD Mate 9 Pro, 128GB 6GB RAM Titanium Grey, and after starting it up, etc. exactly the same thing happened.
After much playing around, I was told to : factory reset twice, change the the display from standard to drawer, put 2 sims in, etc. etc...I was ready to throw in the towel...
Pulled the sim tray out and all the apps/icons appeared instantly! How strange. All has been well since.
