[Q] Answer phone

every other time my phone rings I cant answer it. The accept button just wont move?? is it just me or have anyone else had this error I have a dezire z

Do you have set CPU set to 245MHz @ screen off?

no i dont, why?

Well that could be one cause, maybe it's a bad app causing your phone to temporarily freeze? Can you slide it the other way and ignore the call?

Did you try flashing a different kernel?

why do you suggest this? how do you know hes using kernels? im just trying to see what your connection to the solution is -its quite a specific answer to a problem that hasnt really been examined. what rom is he on, etc before you can start talking about kernels -- so can you clarify?
accept button - do you mean the slider? if you have cmod - just activate settings to disable lock menu/trackball/ whatever --also you could try the no-lock unless you have security issues.
if no cmod -- theres apps to reduce the lockage -- that may help you get your phone calls but still doesnt fix the problem? you could try enomther's and his awesome extra ssettings app has all those options

Thanks for your help, well it is my wifes phone and it is fresh from the store, just a bunch of apps installed.
I will try some things and see if i can figure it out. And yes it is the slide button, can that be switched for a push button, Is it theme based or in the dialer?? hope you understand what i say.

If its a stock DESIRE Z and not a G2 then I think it's safe to assume its got sense on it and not AOSP. Did you try hard resetting it? (power down and pulling the battery for at least 30 sec) other than that id check for any OTA updates in the settings menu. OR if you're willing/know how, you can root it and run CM or virtuous. Both ROMs are excellent. If you do that and the problem persists, it could very well be a faulty unit. You have a lot of options!

I found I had problems answering calls when I had a specific make of screen protector on the phone. As soon as I took that off and went back to a previous one I'd used then it was fine again ! It's a long shot, but I thought I'd throw it in there.

Problem solved, An update did the trick, thanks for helping out my friends,

Cannot connect to camera

When I first start the camera app after a reboot I get the message "Cannot connect to camera". If I try to start the app again it works fine every time until the next reboot.
I've tried a factory reset which worked for a few reboots until the message started happening again.
I'm running the latest stock rom and can't figure out what's changing to cause this.
Any ideas?

Had you got that problem on earlier versions of stock ROM?
Sent from my R800i using xda premium

Sorry, I haven't had the phone long enough to have an older version of the stock rom.

Even I had this error once, I had to reboot the device to get that fixed.
This was the 1st time it happened.
One thing is it happened while shooting a 720p Video.

I don't think it's software problem, probably camera is damaged, or its flex cable. I had the same problem for a moment after disassembling my Play but I forgot to completely connect flex to the connector.
I think the only way to fix your problem is to bring Your Play to authorized service or (if your phone has warranty) send it to SE.
Sent from my R800i using xda premium

It could be but it just seems odd that its only the first time using the camera after a reboot. Try the app a second time and every other time its fine.
I would have though if it was the flex cable it would be all the time or happen randomly.

Well.

I'm having an issue like that right now. However, I started getting it after I messed with a ton of system files and the framework-res.apk
Did you do the same? I'm working on figuring out what went wrong, it's definitely a software issue for me.

Possible Problem and Solution
Hey guys,
I noticed something really curious after having an extensive conversation about a few r800's and a Moto Cliq XT about camera issues and I've isolated what might be the problem that people are unknowingly creating.
Status Bar Widgets
Having the LED/Flash/whateveryouwanttocallit light as a widget toggle in Android 2.3.x seems to use the same line of code as the camera. Or something techy like that. IDK. I was about to fix it after a ton of annoying work. But the easiest way (and fastest really) that I came across was just turning the widget off. Removing it completely. In fact, just get rid of that entire feature in 2.3.x and save it for like, IDK, 3.0+
Really hope this helps that random person out there who needs it.

One X takes awhile to unlock screen

Anyone having an issue of a serious lag when pressing the power key to unlock the screen? taking about 30 seconds for the ring to come up to unlock... just a black screen.

Yeah I've noticed same thing.when I put my sensation next to one-x and unlock,sensation unlocks a bit faster.but appart from that I think everything else is ok,but I'm a bit ov a newbie so there could be things I'm missing.all in all,I'm happy,wicked phone.
Sent from my HTC ONE-X using xda premium

30 secs is unacceptaple... Did you install something or changed some setting somewhere?
If it remains like that all the time, maybe you should do a factory reset...

No, actually only got the phone and noticed it, I'll try a factory reset... Was gonna try a custom Rom to remove the bloatware and see if that solved it as I noticed there is a lot of 3 apps and processes

I'm still using stock and I'm.finding the phone snappy and fast no delay in the lock screen.

you know if you go into settings and apps you can disable all the apps that you do not use..my phone came with all the 3 bloatware and just disabled them..seems pretty ok now and all the rubbish have been removed...it is the same thing like when you freeze apps with TB but this one actually removes them from the app screen to try it out

actually just read up on that and cleared most bloatware from the app drawer

no, mine is fast...very fast

Up up up..
30 seconds point that there is something terribly wrong but, anyone having a slight noticeable delay on turning the screen on? Sometimes it can take up to a full second for the screen to come up completely and the ring to respond.
Last night I checked with my friends Sensation, it's faster quite easily noticed. Now tried with my girlfriends stock Desire S, it is indeed fast as lightning.
I'm too afraid to compare with my HD2..
Any ideas,?

Screen flickering after 4.0.4 update

Hi there, does anyone else experience screen flicker after latest update? I have never had it before, but after updating it does it now and then. Is there any easy fix for it?

Hi!
I experienced flicker after the update. After an factory reset and an battery charge it was gone. Now there's none. Maybe not an easy fix but worked for me!

In what application do you experience this flicker? is there a certain steps to encounter this? i haven't experience this yet. maybe a restart will help.

Grey background, white background, under lamp, in the dark. Depends, but if you don't have it or don't see it do not try to find it.
It's a big issue many threads, long threads, search but rather don't.

As i never had any flickering, i could presume it is very deep hardware fault and not a software issue, should be repaired by warranty

Uf lets do not get this down this road again....
Please do not mention hardware fault again....It has nothing to do with this matter....
It might be a hw fault, malfunction, etc. But the ota before this .11 fought against it. Meaning the flickering was minimal or gone for most of us.
Now the technical description I do not know. But in more informed threads there was written that the kernel needs time to adapt to make the flickering go away. And most ppl that had flicker pre .11 were helped in matter of hours or days.
So I believe the flickering will be gone also after some usage. Lets get back to this in few days.
And guys who have nothing better to do as to say, it might be a hardware issue, please dont. I would like if only ppl that know what the flickering is about would write in this thread.
So if you never had it, dont have it now. Please ignore this thread ok?
Thank you
Dont wanna sound arrogant or condescending Raider, but I had fights about this already in custom rom threads. I do not wanna go there again. Sorry.

Why we cant see guy problem s profile? 4 th guy with problem, but dont know his profile, I mean messeges.
Htc One X Venom ViperX Rom + faux123 s kernel + Rezound Mod

So 10 days after the update, even though I had few reflashes, so maybe that doesnt help much, but still the flickering is still there.
Anyone else still has flickering now after a longer 4.0.4 usage and did it get better for some?

I had this before the update, then updated and waited 3 days on full brightness (i.read it has to settle with voltage or some stuff). Maybe you could try having it on full brightness? Not saying it will work & believe me, I understand your pain! Hope something works for you soon!
Keep us updated!

My HTC One X screen flickers only when on auto-brightness
Hi,
What do you mean exactly with 'screen-flicker' issues?
Different people use this description for some very different screen issues,
so I don't know if yours is severely bad or just minor...
I personally did experience some light screen flicker when the display is on auto-brightness,
the screen then has short periods where it quickly switches its brightness, and I assumed this
was normal because it's trying to adjust the brightness to the environment lighting.
This effect is easily noticed when scrolling the settings screen and is completely gone
when I deactivate auto-brightness.
maybe this can be helpful...

I have the same thing going on.. it's like the backlight voltage is going up and down real fast.. after reading tons of topics on this matter I guess a lot of you guys are experiencing it.. so where is the official statement from HTC that the update should take up to two weeks to work for the screen???

Just off with HTC after the update last week. (Stock phone not rooted) My One X has been freezing especially on Facebook and twice a day rebooting itself. Slight flickering when scrolling..All errors were logged. Soft reset and Hard reset carried out several times, but no improvement.
HTC have put a service call on it and collecting the phone Thursday.

Try flashing the RUU (this is the first thing HTC will do). It will wipe your phone, so back up. But test it before restoring.

Mine seems only to be flickering with Sense Launcher. No flickering with Nova Launcher. AND Nova is even smoother.

Can someone explain, what this flickering is? It's not similar to the 'Recent Apps'/Grey Colour is it?

I purchased a brand new HOX yesterday which had a screen flicker. The flicker was only noticed on white.
I turned the phone on and was pushed 3 software updates, one after another and thought that after the updates the screen flicker would be solved. I ended up with the 4.0.4 update and the screen flicker was still there. I did a full factory reset and the screen flicker seems to have gone.
I will keep my eye on it, because if needed I can return it for a replacement within 30 days.
Has a factory reset worked for anyone else after updating to 4.0.4?

Not that I know of. I mean that a factory reset helps.
After it was flickering for me. I decided to go and test a custom kernel. Before the only reason I couldn't go with a custom kernel was the flickering. Only on stock it didn't flicker for me.
So as it was flickering I tried faux again, and now I do not notice it anymore.
Maybe it needed time to settle, maybe the UV helped? Or that I shutdown the capacitive buttons lights? I do not know...
But it can also be the change of scenery. As I was before on another continent

you need to wait till the update settles...

[Q] Strange sounds

Hi,
I used to be a happy owner of the HTC One X since last week.
From that time my phone makes strange sounds - something like a error blip in windows. It makes me crazy, as it happens randomly, like one per minute or every second for a minute.
I did hard reset and it's back. Dunno what to do, dont wanna change to custom rom ;/
Is here anyone who had the same problem?
Many thanks!

Hi,
it happens always when screen is on. I believe that it might be one of the apps, but no idea which one as I've almost uninstalled everything from my phone. Did the hard reset and the sound was back after a few seconds after first boot.
