Dropped my HOX and now weird sound

I dropped my HOX from 3 feet and now when I shake I am hearing tick tick sound inside the phone. Is there any chance to get damage.

Sounds like its about to blow up!!!!
Somethings been knocked loose from the fall, God knows what. Hopefully its nothing that will affect the usage / performance of the phone. Give it a week and see.

tick-tick near camera ?
i think... those sounds its already there since first time you unboxed

Can any one shake the phone well both up and down and left and right and say whether you hear a small.sound inside it.

Thanks for the reply guys . You made my day and I am worried that I broked my phone as i had dropped . And it falls horizontal hitting the screen down. And for gods shake there is no scratch . And now I am confirmed that the sound was normal and every one has it.

I think they all have a rattle... I think its a movement sensor of sort..

Yep mine makes a slight ticking sound too when I shake it. I've dropped it twice now from about 2 feet. Once was on carpet and the second time i was sitting on a Sofa and it fell on a laminated floor.

Even my old HTC Desire had that. It's part of the camera mechanism.

Is there possible to do any other test and make sure my HOX is undamaged.

It's the shutter
Sent from my HTC One X using XDA

Thats true, it could be the camera shutter making the sound. You can usually hear the shutter when you open and close the camera app!
Maybe do a full sensor test to make sure they're all working? Not sure how to do this though, its got to be some where in the Settings Menu?

Don't worry its normal
Edit: you can test your device hardware by dailing *#*#3424#*#* just to make sure there no damage

In play store you can get a sensor test tool

I tried line drawing test I couldn't draw at the edges special the top edge of the screen unless you try harder to draw , so its not an issue

Loose screen

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?

I would contact whomever you bought it from. Sounds like you got a faulty device that isn't what you payed for.

known defect, don't bother nothing will fix it, the lamination is defected, ask to exchange and a newer batch, anything above HT24A

I have HT23 with no issues.
Sent from my HTC One X using Xparent ICS Blue Tapatalk 2

This is my 12th one. No other issues with it. It's actually a little loose even when phone is not warm. Very small tick sound when pressed down.
Really annoying. Don't know if I should bother getting another one.

he is asking about a specific thing, you saying HT23 has no issues means nothing first you only told us which month and not which day about your batch the day comes after HT23
second its completely unrelated to the OP's question!

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..

bulging on ONE X back

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

here 2 pics ... its difficult to get on cam ...

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....

its bulging around this place marked on the pic ... what s that part ... processor?

@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 ...

[Q] Digitizer replacement

Is it possible to replace only the digitizer?
I've broken only the digitizer but don't know about gluing and so...
Thanks
Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk 4 Beta

I need to change the digitizer, too, but I found that you can't change only that. You need to change lcd+digitizer assembly, because it's impossible to split them because of the hard glue. You might brake the lcd. Also, if you do split them, then you'll have to clean the remained glue. If you do clean that, then you need to apply some sort of glue uniform between the parts, without bubbles. That's what I found.
Now I have a problem with yellow flex cable and green flex cable for the lcd

What problem?

That's what I found on the internet If you search, even on ebay there are screens with yellow flex cable and screens with green flex cable. I still don't know the difference and what's appropiate for me.

I found something here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=33862387, but it didn't helped me. Maybe you got more luck or someone already knows what to do.

Sorry for double posting, but I found something.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1639924
With that, I found that my panel_id is 0x944701. After searching for that on google, I found that some users have that panel_id after their screen was replaced in HTC Service. But it's an unknown brand. So my display might have been changed before...but I still can't find if I can buy one from ebay. This one for example: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/LCD-Displ...X-/251199108419?ssPageName=ADME:X:RTQ:GB:1123
Maybe you can dig more. I'll do more research tomorrow. I'm tired now!

There's a company on eBay that sells used att screens. I got one that had a "scratch" bout 1/2 inch and it looks like a smudge... Most people can't even see it it's that in noticable.. they have a b and c stock as well as the one I got.. name is repair bowl. And they buy your busted screen

Metal speaker grill on the top of the phone coming off below the camera

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 gave my phone to HTC for repair. They said it will take 3 to 4 days. In the meanwhile they gave me the HTC Butterfly S to use until I get my phone back.

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...
