I can turn it on but I get no little icon in the status bar as well as nothing happens when putting it against a HTC ONE with NFC enabled. Stock rom and kernel It's rooted and I've flashed a few different roms but I always come back to stock for the camera. I'd rather not flash a new stock again because I don't want to set it all up again.
I've disabled a few apps and stuff through app manager but none have to do with NFC.
other questions i want to ask but i dont want to start a whole thread for them. When i try to pair my S4 to the stereo in my car it says device full and I've done it before is this a problem with the phone or the stereo?
and does anyone have the link to a thread with all the processes they succesfully disabled without causing FC's?
I have a friend who has an HTC One, and we had a hard time getting it to work. I think one reason is the HTC One's NFC sensor is near the top of the phone, while the S4 is near the bottom. I didn't notice any icon, except when transferring files. I had better luck connecting to a Motorola Razr M, so I know that it does work. Also, you may want to make sure bluetooth is enabled, since some files are transferred that way.
As for trying to pair your phone to your car, you probably need to delete a device from the car. I had to do this with an old phone no longer in use, and then I was able to pair my new phone.
I hope you're able to get the NFC working. I bought some tags which work, and I'm trying to think of cool ways to use them.
Dude that is the first thing I noticed when I bought my S4 from T-Mobile. Seems like the NFC icon on status bar is for the AT&T model.. I haven't seen any other model with this icon. I managed to changed the build.prop to AT&T because I like the 4G logo and the carrier text appeared on status bar and says tmobile. This was something with att model as well. I noticed my NFC toggle logo changed to the one on status bar but yet it wont come on status bar... As of now i'm looking for a att rom to flash and see if it works but lately everybody have the idea on creating international rom... As of NFC working mine does
I flashed a stock Rom onto my s4 for this along with other reasons like turning on voice control FC'd camera but I still don't get NFC icon in my status bar. I feel like I remember seeing one on the day I got my phone but I can't anymore. I need to get somethin to test my nfc with

Maybe the NFC icon on status bar was in a oldest build. When I got mine a few weeks ago it had the latest MDL. A friend have a att model and her shows. Like I said even on the nfc toggle icon is different.

For some unknows reason my status bar stopped working.
All updates or mail notifications shows up - but it's inactivated
so when I touch it nothing happens.

are you guys rooted? if so try reflashing the rom
I'm not rooted. Not sure how..but it might come to it. I am sure that this is a software problem and if I might have to wait till HTC sends there next update. This is the only problem I am having and I purchased it at a local shop where I live so I can always exchange it but th there seems to be a lot of problems out there and if I "roll the dice" I could get worse. It's really annoying but I can survive for a couple of weeks.

Landscape mode
I'm not rooted either.
Found out that my bar works in landscape mode.
feels like the phone is working even if it gets hot from time to time
and loosing signal (need restart then)
Someone has a clue about this bar problem? Reason?
Great find. Does the settings when your in the camera app work? Mine does not. It's like the top 1/2 inch of the phone won't register any touch. I am starting to think that it might be a hardware problem.
I agree
The top section register no touch
I agree - but don't know what to do.
HTC support?
Give this a try.. Apps > Settings > Display > G-Sensor calibration > Follow the on screen instructions. Then attempt to swipe down to access your notification bar.
I contacted supportand this is what they told me but it was too late and I already dropped by my local shop and exchanged it for a new one.
Let me know if this works. I would like to know just in case it happens again.
I hope it will be that easy for you. I spent so much time trying to figure this out last night and I don't think that I tried this.

Will speak to my company on Monday and have a new one.

yes. same here.... did anyone try flashing a new rom to get it to work? i have tried some but still failed....
also I noticed that sometimes the screen just froze, i wonder if theres anything to do with it.....
flash other roms and restoring back to stock didnt work... sigh all this happened after 3 weeks of usage.... i am kinda disappointed.. dont want to switch to S3 but I guess I will now....
some found how to fix this problem ??? i have this also right now
Same issue here. It is definitely a problem with the sensor at the top of the screen. I am rooted and installed Landscape Rosie (allows you to rotate sense in the landscape direction) and the notification bar works just fine in landscape but not in portrait. I am on the phone with AT&T as I write this. My phone is about 2 weeks old.

It might not be relevant, but this sub forum is for the Tegra3 version.
this is the same problem of the same tech, but the problem is there are no way to fix this problom
I got hit by this problem this weekend. I am quite surprised. Mine is one of the first few HOX's and there has been absolutely no problem with the phone.
In my status bar, I had the GSam Battery monitor, Bonny Box, swipe pad and the Easy battery saver. The problems started when I installed Bonny box and it constantly moved up and down, inside the status bar....sorta kept flickering everytime I pulled down the bar. I uninstalled bonny box since I didnt really need it. Things didnt really improve...the flickering continued.
Then I installed Notification Toggle late last week and then this problem hit me. Had about 5 shortcuts in the status bar. The status bar just would not respond until I restarted the phone. So I removed the battery monitor and saver from the status bar. Problem persisted. I removed the notifications from the bar and restarted and no problems then. I ran it like that for a day and then put back only the notifications into the status bar and havent had any problems yet.
I am going to put the Battery monitor and saver back tonite and lets see then what happens...
I am not rooted and everything is stock. India version. Hope it helps. Let me know if any more information from my end helps.

how do i remove notificatios
Hi All,
My self Rupesh A i am also facing same issue "unable to drag notification bar" .. we have lots of third party tools why can't installed one of them in our HTC M7. I have installed "Open notification Bar" and i place this app Widget on my home screen .. when i click the app automatically my notification bar will drag down. So simple why we need to reset and all other stuff ..
I just downloaded and setup Llama. So far it has been very handy in letting me adjust my settings based on whether I am at work or home.
However, I attempted to setup an event to toggle GPS on when I open the Maps application and to turn off GPS when I close the application. However, it doesn't do so! It did note that it cannot do this on ICS as the permissions to do so have changed. However, via Google Search, I did find some mention of it working for some people but they didn't say how.
Anyone here able to do that? If so, how? If not, any other suggestions (Tasker?) on how I can accomplish this?
It doesn't work on stock. Use custom ROM like CM.

You probably already got your answer or quit looking by now but you can toggle gps. You need to use the Secure Settings plugin from the Play Store. I think you might need to be a root user to unlock all the functionality as was mentioned before but mine works like a charm now.
Another great find for me was using the Smart Shortcuts app so that when I plug in my headphones, llama turns down my volume to a manageable level and pops up a list of apps (pandora, google music, stitcher...) I use my headphones with. I do the same for when I plug in any USB, it pops up with a link to care home or clock or my alarm app because I'm usually only plugging in at night or in the car.
I just wish I had some other ideas to look through. I'm sure there is a lot more this thing can do that I'm not thinking about.

I think there is an explanation in the app. Google changed how gps could be toggled. I gave up turning off gps a long time ago. It really only uses power when an app requests it and judging by the notification it's not very often. By default llama uses cell towers, but I use wifi to pin point my location. That way my Bluetooth doesn't turn off until I reach my driveway.

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?

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.

Strangely, it's gone by it self this morning, wired
Maybe it's time to go for an aftermarket rom
Or maybe you've evaded the location tracking service. You may be a ninja.
I have been setting up and play with this version for a couple of hours. I was fighting with Kies to recognize the phone and finally had to uninstall / reinstall again to get it to work. Makes no sense since I backed up before the update. Regardless i was able to recover my SMS and Phone logs which is the only thing I did not have backed up.
Here are the fixes that I have found so far:
1. Keyboard backlight of course.
2. Menu buttons light up now when they are touched. No longer have to touch screen (this was a big one for me).
3. SMS notifications work correctly although I had switched to SMS Pro to solve and I love it now.
4. Other notifications seem to be working ( calendar, alarm, etc.) but I was already using Volume Ace which fixed these as well.
5. Accuweather application rotates through my chosen cities now. I had not realized this was not working properly but always had to open the app to switch cities.
So far so good with some of the major items fixed. #2 was really bothering me for a long time since I was alway hunting for the right button in the dark.

Still have not found a link to download any version of this update.
Someone had posted that GPS is fixed as well, something that I and a few others have been battling with - it taking minutes, if ever, locking a signal and location.
Can you confirm GPS ? Did you have issues w/ it before?

I had seen people having problems with GPS but I never experienced that issue. Perhaps I just do not use it enough but when I use it as navigation while driving with the built in apps, the location was always correct for me. I used it out of state a few times and my location seemed to stay locked.
I was basically using the stock ROM LH2 before with just the Keyboard light fix. No Root or other changes except CWMR for backups.

Tethering and 4G Symbol
Hi,
ICS looks great for me, i flashed the Stock rom (I927UCLJ3_I927ATTLJ3_ATT) from samfirmware.com via ODIN, but there are still 2 problems.
First:
Is there any way to unlock USB Tethering and Mobil Hotspot?
Second:
What´s about the 4G Symbol, i´m living in Germany and on GB i saw the 3G or H (for HSDPA+) Symbol now its a 4G
I´m not sure if the 4G search process reduces the battery livetime wahtsoever, is it possible it switch it back?
Thx and have a nice Day
Oh. P.s. is ist possible to Root the Stock rom, and kill all the damn AT&T app´s and change the gps.conf?
Well, about the GSM and notification issues: they were not fixed. I noticed one thing, that this problem is repeatable if you use Alarm clock (stock or not - does not matter).
You wake up, diable the alarm, after that, if you dont touch and turn on your phone - it will hang in a while, until you turn it on. So the GSM/Wifi statuses change rapidly after turning on, time advance in status bar very fast.
This issue makes me miss calls and have repeatable notifications
Why does the name of my provider always appears in the notification bar?..

My phone is a Verizon HTC ONE and I just got a Sprint HTC ONE and I was wondering what parts can I put in my verizon phone from the Sprint one. The board that controls the Volume is faulty in my verizon phone and also my camera has the pink screen problem... can I replace these parts from that sprint phone?
Any of you know?
Thanks!
Camera might be safe as we share the same camera chips. The volume buttons, I do not know if it will work. In a thread somewhere in the Vzw one section someone tried to swap out for the Sprint red case and had issues. Some parts may work, some won't.

Ive only changed the part that has the camera, power button etc.... Ive notice that sprint has more cables than the verizon model... 2 more cables.. not sure what are they for but the phone is working fine without them.... only issues I have found so far is that if I use the flashlight for a minute the phone reboots itself... also sometimes when im changing the setting of the camera the phone reboots.... not sure if its becasue of the custom rom I just installed or becasue of the change I did.

One way to check is to RUU back to stock ROM and see if the problems persist.
