HELP !!!! - HTC One V

I'm not sure what's wrong but my signal has dropped drastically and now my phone is always roaming and also my phone isn't picking up WiFi well either . I'm sitting directly next to my WiFi router and I'm BARELY getting any WiFi from it . the only thing that's different about my phone than any other day is that my back piece fell off and I can't find it so I'm using the one v without the back piece

And you said the problem also. The backplate has the WiFi(bluetooth) and the GSM antennas in it (because of the unibody aluminium casing of the house), so if it is lost, the phone is practically useless.

You can buy another one on eBay for around 15 dollars

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.

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..

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 thought I threw it to the grass but it fell a bit short. Otherwise, my infuse was practically indestructible, surving every fall(maybe 8-10 times)

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

You mean the camera lens? That sucks man. Hopefully there will be extra parts available soon and you could fix that up yourself. I know I would. I'm ocd enough that it would bug the crap outta me
In the meantime, if anybody asks, just say the phone developed character

Do not go without a case, this phone is not durable at all! This is what happens from slding out of my pocket while in a chair and falling <18" to a patio.

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.

Any one know of a parts company for M7?

Hi everyone,
Has anyone found a good parts company yet for the HTC one? Especially if it's in the UK.
I've cracked the glass circle lens for the camera. I have to say I did absolutely nothing yet it's cracked from the centre spidering outwards.
I have seen whole backs for sale in USD. But it seems silly for a centimetre bit of glass that I can just pick out, and push in a replacement.
Any help is appreciated. Google and eBay have been of no help at the moment.
Thanks

I'm thinking it would be near impossible to replace it yourself. Apparently the One is incredibly hard to tinker with as far as taking it apart.

I'd have to agree. I have once again blown a speaker in mine...this makes 3 our of 5 HTC phones I've owned through the years that have had busted speakers. =\
Anyway, in my Hero and OG Evo the speaker was easy to replace, I didn't even bother replacing it in my 4g LTE.
This phone, however, is apparently one of the hardest as far as repair work goes. Ifixit rated it 1 out of 10 in the department.

I went through 4 HTC Ones in 1 week before i got this current one. /knocks on wood
I literally told ATT "if this one screws up to F it, ill take an S4". I can only tolorate defective products and replacements for so long.
4 Red Rings before I said screw it n smashed my 360 to all hell. Got tired of sending it in, waiting waiting waiting, getting it back only to have it screw up again. repeat

[Q] Drop

Hello,
I would like to know if it's possible that, after a fall of 3 feet on a wooden floor, a component or anything else on my HTC One (m8) has been broken and made the device a little bit slow?
I'm a little paranoid about that, so thanks in advance for the answer.
Highly doubt it but anything is possible.

A broken component or a system damage wouldn't have bigger consequences?

Correct. Like if you dropped it and it wouldn't turn on.
Sent from my HTC One_M8 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
This is a pretty ambiguous question. I've seen phones survive 6 foot drops but not a simple 2 ft slip of the hand. I'll just comment on the build quality, and will say that it is top notch.
Sent from my One M8 using Tapatalk
Thanks for your answers. I checked everything as the camera, LED, vibrate, gyro... and everything seems fine, so I come to the conclusion that it's is a coincidence. And I trust the amazing built quality of the M8.
