Hi everybody! i have my hox since june, and phone signal was bad since beginning, but now it's worse than ever!
It's really annoying to have no signal half of times that i pull hox out from poket, and if i need to send a message or to phone someone i need to use it like this:

I have hboot 1.28 now, and it seems to be worse than with 0.95, radio version is 5.1204.162.29, my operator is Vodafone Italy and my friend with the same phone same operator and same rom has the same problem!
Are we alone in this world with this problem?
Can it be radio version problem? (solvable with just flashing a new radio)
Maybe it's your network? No signal issues for me on Vodafone UK on any of the radios. Try your sim in another phone if you have one, or try another sim in your phone to cancel out phone issues.
i will try,
same problem here
Thought I'm the only one had this problem... It happens to me too often. when I pull out of my pocket there wont be any signal. Then I will switch to flight mode and will come back to get the signal. 4 to 5 times a day :crying:
Now ordered a new sim card. lets see whether this is a sim problem or its One X
I used to get low signal as well. This is what I did to fix my problem,
Go to Settings->Mobile Network->Network mode (Select GSM only). Before this I used to get only 2 bars, now I get full 5 at almost all times!
Hope this helps....
I think is trolling

Since day one my HOX was losing signal completely.1st day I had it lost the signal twice and since them from time to time did it again but usualy after turning it off and back on the problem was fixed.The last couple of days though (now I have for a bit longer than a month) has done it 5-7 times and turning off and on didnt fix the problem all the time....I was too thinking that this may be a sim problem but if you have the same problem then it cant be the sim but the phone.Today I pulled the sim off and reinserted it and it seems to be working fine.Of course there is no way of telling if the problem will reappear.I just hope it wont because there was a period of 15 days that didnt happen even once.Let me close this by saying that when it could not find signal funny enough when I did manual search for networks it did find my network but trying to connect said that sim is not compatible to that network!!!!
I hope the JB update (whenever we get it) will solve this problem too as if the problem persists I would have to send my phone to HTC service which is the last thing I want to do....... :crying:

Are you talking about me? If so, then no, I am not trolling.
I am no expert, I was merely pointing towards something that worked for me. I had horrible signal from day one and while looking through the settings, I switched from 'GSM/WCDMA auto' to 'GSM only' after manually selecting the network and it fixed the low signal. No idea why or how.

yeah but the connection is slow -.- we want strong signal and speed at the same time
It's to do with contacts not connecting right in side of hox.
There's a thread with the same issue but with the GPS.
The person posted a vid showing how he fixed it.
It worked for me so 90% sure it will for you if your confident enough here's a link to the post.

i think you have to clean contacts with alcohol, maybe they're oxidated... and why paper? take a try with aluminium as you did with wifi!

Last night after a full charge the phone didnt find signal again no matter what I tried.
I took the sim out and put back in but no change then suddenly after 4 or 5 times turning it on and off it found signal.
I will get a new sim to see if that could be the problem but I dont think it has anything to do.
However noway I will not open the phone my self and lose warranty.
If situation doesnt improve after the replacement of sim I ll send it to service right away and press them for a new one or at least a fast repair.

imo it is radio's fault... the ICS one was pretty good, then when i switched to JB the signal became awful... that's it imo... hope they'll do something in the 1.33 HBOOT...

Woke up late today because phone died. Does WiFi really kill the battery this bad or did I get the grey triangle of death? I have signal where the phone was laying. I'm currently rocking AOKP and Frank (Turtle) kernel.

looks like you totally lost signal and the radio kept trying to find one
Wifi does NOT kill the battery that bad. And the GN in my experience and others too I see has excellent idle life. Something is wrong.
I have WiFi on 24/7 and have no issues. The Verizon phones are meant to have battery issues aren't they (as in ICS not liking them)?
I received this phone through Amazon on Monday. I can recall about 3 different times where I would be using the phone and have great signal and then all of a sudden I would lose internet connection. It would take a minute or so but it would come back. 2 of those occasions happened before I even rooted the phone. Yesterday, it happened when I was on a call. On all occasions I had at least 2 bars if not more when it happened.
Seems to be when the drop happens I also lose voice. Does anyone else have similar problems?
That's due to no cellular reception, not WiFi. The red under, "Mobile Network Signal" represents time where your phone had zero reception.... not to mention that your stats told you that you didn't have signal 93% of the time.

This, exactly. Almost the entire time you were on battery the phone was searching for a cell signal for voice and SMS, killing your battery.

I have never had even a remotely similar experience, it seems that if you were in the same spot that entire time and that happened, the handset may be faulty and you will want to exchange it for a replacement.

Yep. Keep in mind that when your phone loses signal it will increase the power to the radio in an attempt to find a signal (since that's the primary purpose of a phone, or so I'm told). If you know you're in a spot with poor signal, put it in Airplane Mode to keep it from searching (and thus draining the battery).
As mutelight mentions, if your phone is going from good signal to none without moving, there's something else wrong. Trying different radio firmwares may help, or it could be a hardware issue.

What's interesting is I left it on my desk. I get good reception at my desk (get 4G there).
I have the problem that after almost every text message I receive, I lose all voice and data signal, but it comes back within 5-10 seconds later. Very annoying.

That is also not normal behavior. Are you running all stock? If so, definitely seek a replacement.
In those situations, put your phone in airplane mode and turn on wifi.

I just contacted Verizon and Amazon (I bought the phone from them).
Verizon had me pull out the LTE sim and reinsert it. The rep said she did something on her end to refresh my line. I've been around the block to know that means jack **** but we will see.
I spoke with Amazon it was reassuring. If I keep having issues with the signal they will overnight replacement phones. If I keep having an issue with them I can replace them for another phone.
I love this phone so far with the exception of the problem that was stated so far. I already bought all sorts of accessories for the phone. But in the event I have to move on from the GNEX, which phone would you guys recommend?
I like this phone too much to switch to another brand/phone.
I ended up asking Amazon for a replacement phone. Hopefully this new phone comes without issues.

Good.
I couldn't come up with a phone I'd rather have than the GNex :-D
Just got the brand new replacements from Amazon. Same exact problem. After speaking to Verizon and Amazon, I'm going to replace the sim. If my problem does not resolve itself, looks like I'm going to AT&T for the Galaxy Note.
Wish me luck!

it could be that you lost signal and the phone was unable to get it back for some reason even though you were in a good reception area. Some of the radios that i tried had problems going from edge to 3G and would either take too long or not be able to go back to 3g again. i would try flashing 4.0.3 or a different radio.
Conclusion to the story.
I ended up getting the sim cards replaced. Same issue. I was even able to show the rep. Looks like I'm going to end up getting the Galaxy Note.
Thanks to those who replied and read the thread.
Sorry Verizon LTE. It was nice while it lasted (or connected) ;_;
have you tried different roms/kernels ?
try to switch it off of 4g
it definitely seems to be a connection issue
I had this exact problem with my first Gnex. Left it unplugged on the nightstand and woke to a dead phone. Same battery profile: No mobile signal and a steep discharge graph. My wife's Gnex, 6 ft away in the same room, was just fine.
Verizon swapped me a new phone and I haven't seen that problem again. To be fair, I've only repeated the conditions a few times, so it's hardly conclusive.

I am now following you on Twitter. I send my One X back for repair last week. Got it back today, unfixed. The repair center (Dynafix) couldn't find the symptoms and they send it back unrepaired, while I attached a letter and some pictures explaining the problems. Despite that they couldn't find it, I am really asking myself what kind of people work there. On Twitter I contacted HTC a few weeks ago and they asked me to let them know how it went, so I told them this story. No reply yet, but it's just minutes ago.

Updates won't fix this, it's plain and simple a hardware problem, took me quitte long to accept . How long do you have your phone? DOA is normally only the first two weeks. I made a small movie reproducing the wifi problem, just press your phone just above the volume rocker and signal shoots up more than 20 dBm, which is really a lot. Movie here: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/26248241/VID_20120602_152633.m4v

It doesn't matter which router I try. WiFi Analyzer doesn't log in on networks, it just shows signal strength. And that signal strength is just way to low on every router. See also this topic: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1688538

New Router works much better with my HOX!
Hi!
Bought a new router today Netgear WNDR3700 and it works much better.
I don't have to use static ip or any of the known tip to make wifi usable.
SO, i've not heated it up yet using charger and GPS, so lets see.
Speaking of GPS, today i turned on GPS and oh my god how bad it was.
So something is terrible wrong, but WHAT?! No one is telling us nothing.
For thoose who can press and hold it must be hardware related, but mine, is it just poor programming?
I'm so regretting my choice of device now.
I brought my HOX about a month ago, no issues at all after updating to 1.28, no built issues zero software issues, it was perfect.
But today morning i installed a game and tried to touch the menu bar(the vertical bar with 3 dots just above capacitive buttons) and it does not work.
Not only in the game but everywhere you try to touch that area nothing happens.
This problem is not only limited to the menu bar, but also till very slightly above it.
The 1.29.7 update for asia just came out, i thught this would fix it but it didnt.
Tried to factory reset but still doesnt works.
Is this a hardware problem? Should i take to htc?
And do you think i will get a replacement or a repair job done?
Also, i have never dropped the phone even once, it was aways in soft silicon case away from any rough use. In fact, it has hardly been used.
Thanks
I would send it right back to HTC for a replacement.
Exchange it. I had a simular problem with mine but it was the top of the screen that stoped working. In the end I had to get a exchange.

Same problem here, but I've unlocked mine voiding my warranty : (
Defo not fixed with firmware updates as I had the same issue with my first one and had to return it for an exchange
had the same problem and gone for a replacement. I have tried many things with the guidance of HTC support center none worked.
same problem here
took it back to shop where it was purchased from, it took over 6 weeks for repair centre to return it.
just got it back today and the problems are still there
im sooo unhappy with this phone.
ive emailed HTC and waiting on a response.
i want a new one or my money back.
SO SAD
IF YOU LIKE MY WORK, THANK ME BY THE BUTTON BELOW

I am expireincing the exact same problem, except the non working part of digitizer is just above the middle of the screen. Is flashing a new ROM would fix it? I think i have nothing to loose, since i cannot send my phone to AT&T because i bought it used on ebay and i live in Canada. I guess it could be 50% chances ROM issue, my old Sensation was having a speaker issue, witch was playing very weak, i sent it to HTC and they flashed a new ROM, it got is spaeker fixed.
I too had this problem although it was intermittent. Sent my HOX to be repaired on Thursday, waiting to hear back.

Now I have stop dropping the phone after it has lot of scratches and now I have a case so it won't break hope so.
My last record is dropping the phone from 5.5 feet which is my height upto shoulder and it drop while taking snap.
And btw my other HTC phone have full reception and the bar is green.
Me too have full signal but bar never gets green.
And my network signal never goes below 80 but with the same career it is - 75 in my another phone.
I just want to confirm is there any thing went wrong after several drop ?
Is there any thing broken internally. I just paid 800$ for this phone as we have no contract in our country , we have to pay fully for the phone and the career charges are seperate.
So please let me know whether it is related with Rom or hardware ?

Can you guys check what's the maximum signal strength you get with your Hox (in perfect line of sight to a nearby umts base station).
Signal strength values in Android range between -51dBm (best) and -109dBm (worst).
I had some problem recently. After a warranty repair my phone never exceeded -71dBm (whereas before I easily had -51dBm in the office, where I have a base station in front of the window).
Any one has the same issue ?

If you have dropped the phone many times then perhaps the antenna got deformed, loosened up etc.. Just one possibility, after all we all know how antenna deformation can affect WiFi signal strength.

Is there any way to check it has deformed. I have good wifi strength.

Frankly I have no idea.
But according to this , the cellular antenna is at the bottom part of the phone (at least for the AT&T variant, probably the same location for international one as well). You could try the same technique used to debug WiFi problem.... perhaps squeeze the bottom part of the phone ? All guess work here, so do it at your own risk..
It is the issue with all rom. I have full reception in stock rom. I tried every rom , it has issues.
Hi all,
My sister tried installing candy crash on her, used to be mine, desire.
The phone crashed, funny isn't it, and all it can do now is charge but will not operate at all, even not to boot loader.
The device is rooted, s off and with partition table of cm.
It had cm 2.3.7 and cwm recovery before crash.
When charging, orange led will lit but when pressing power button to start the device led will turn off and nothing else happen.
The only way to get the charging led to lit again is to remove and reinstall the battery.
Any clue?
Thanks,
Oren

If you can't get to bootloader then it's hard from here. How about fastboot (back + power)
Try the troubleshooting thread stickied to the top of q&a
Likely you'll have to run an RUU, but you'll lose all your data in the process.
Thanks.
I'll try to check if I get ADB to see the device.
Maybe the display is to blame for not working.

So I don't get anything...
Even Charging will take place only after I remove the battery and reinstall.
So it's dead completely?
Was there enough internal space before she installed Candy crush?

Actually since I wasn't the user and the user is not someone who check it, I can't tell.
Yet, does it slow to install if no sufficient space is available?
Not that I'm aware of.

I'm not sure about that. But it might possible yeah.

Thanks.
Even if it is the issue, the unit does now not operate at all.
Do you have a clue about the next steps?
Sent from my HTC One using Tapatalk
Since you can't get in the bootloader or use adb, I have no idea how you can recover it.
Sorry.

Thanks anyway.
Opened help ticket to HTC...

Please update us if HTC knows a way to help. I'm interested.

I will.
But I guess it's total loss and will need a motherboard replacement.
Probably with full payment.
If that is the solution, I'll pass it.

As I anticipated, HTC mail/phone support cannot help and a lab check is needed.
It's a $25 worth for the problem definition.
I'll update once I have news.

Ok, so the check cost only $15, but this is the only good news...
The problem is the mother board and its fix would cost around $200 which is insane for such an old device.
I asked them to and it back and thought I would try doing it alone.
The issue is, I can't find a place on the net for buying such a mother board...
Can someone suggest please?

U can buy a broken desire off ebay for bout 15 - 30euro. Motherboards r very hard to find
Thanks, will try finding one!
As I'm having technical skills, how hard would it be replacing such?

Really simple. Take out battery, simcard and sdcard, take out the screws then unclip the plastic then ul see the motherboard then unclip the flex cables and take out the motherboard. Ul be surprised how easy it is. Theres good videos on youtube anyway if u need bit of help.
Ok, main board arrived 2 days ago and yesterday evening I finally found the time to replace it.
It seems the unit works now but the display doesn't...
I disassembled again and reassembled just to verify all connectors are connected as they should but still....

Try to check if the 3 cable in blue circles are COMPLETELY plugged.
I once forgot to plug back one of them and my screen was dead too.
They sometimes seems to be plugged but actually not.
And, make sure your "new" motherboard is really also working.

I rechecked that yesterday, but will reconfirm later today.
It seems as if the board is working but I can't be sure of course.
