Hey everybody,
My HTC One X has developed an interesting problem over the last few days. I hit the unlock button the other night and my screen did this weird rainbow fuzz storm thing. Ever since, the screen has been glitching from time to time and it appears to be getting worse. Sometimes it will be discolored, the ratio with be wrong and the icons will be skewed. It gets stuck too and won't wake up. I'll hit the unlock button and the capacitive buttons will light up, but the screen won't come on.
Any idea what's going on? Hardware issue? Software?
It might be worthy to note that I've had this phone coming up now on almost two years with no issues.
Thanks
If you still have warranty I mean if its still bought less then two years ago sent in for warranty you can't do anything for that...that's a hardware problem ...

It's an international variant of the phone and I'm in the US, don't think I've got any warranty really. Maybe that new Nexus 5 is calling my name...

Hello there.
I've waited few months to retire my old HTC Desire and purchase a new device, for few weeks ago I've been waiting the release of the HTC one X but now I've been reading some topics about issues and problems that the owners are suffering...
So here is my question to the One X owners, would you recommend the device to your best friend?
Thanks

Read back to the comments on DHD forums when that came out. Same with the Sensation. They both had teething issues for some users, and I don't regret getting either. There will always be people with problems, and they will be the most vocal.

OI! Thats my phone, get yourself something else!!!
I recommend iPhones to most people only because most people I know just want something easy to use. Not that Android is easy, but Apple is easier and they can just take it into an Apple Store if something doesn't work. The support system is much better.
HOWEVER, the One X is a much better phone than anything else on the market!
short answer: yes
long answer: alot of yes
The choice is yours I've gone from dhd to the one x don't think I would look back either
Screen crisp clear
Build fantastic
Use smooth and quick
Really light weight
Yes there is reports of minor issues on some of them but its nothing major and will be fixed the only I have is battery life mine dies faster that my gf she got 18 hours out of first charge the difference is I'm a heavy user she isn't
The rest of reported issues I've not had

I guess U should. Since U are coming from desire.
But for me, the reason I got one was initially because of the "big" screen. Am using a titan currently and absolutely love the screen minus the lower pixel count. When I got One x, I was quite disappointed actually. I dun quite like the material used and the "bigger" screen. Its the screen ratio that actually turned me off.. The screen is taller but not really much wider than my trusty hd2. So, the "bigger screen is not what I had expected. Speed wise, blazing fast compared to my hd2. But, do I really need blazing? I guess not.. I can bare with a few millisec of waiting time. So, I am kinda disappointed tbh. IMHO.
Anyone had THE argument yet?
oops
Yes, but wait for the battery saving update coming and for some cases in the shops. My camera feels way to exposed to scratches so have ordered a clear back case which is 10 days away. Screen is amazing compared it to s2 and iPhone 4s and they don't even come close.
I came from HTC desire.

Don't you dare buying it! It's mine, my precious <3.

I'd recommend it, but if you are the kind of user who wants a flawless experience from the start = wait 2 weeks so all the bugs are updated.
My first few hours coming from a DHD I was sceptical because I was so used to the DHD and the Virtuous affinity ROM is amazingly smooth.
After 1 day I am completely loving the one x.
It's holding battery much better than my DHD with the same accounts syncing too.
The camera and screen are actually stunning, not just a turn of phrase. I was jaw dropped streaming HD and filming 1080p.
I actually prefer using my one x with headphones for media than my laptop and TV put together now
I recommend it.

Honestly, no. Not yet.
I would wait to see what HTC do to address the awful battery life and overheating before buying.
If the reviews would have been more realistic, I would have been in a better position to judge.
Feel let down by the main reviewers, but then they did have an update that us mere peasants aren't allowed. Sketchy move from HTC if you ask me, the phone we get is not what was reviewed. Foul.

I can't help wondering why they chose to release an update that fixes a lot ONLY to the press... It makes no sense to me?

Clearly they weren't sure about it's stability/hadn't bug-tested it enough to release to all of their customers.
Should be out soon though

Because they needed to get it to them before the reviews were published, so that they'd reflect what HTC intended the user experience to be like before the handset was released to the public later that week.
Sensible though that strategy is, it sort of comes undone when you don't push that update to the retail handsets in time for them going on general sale. I imagine it was because the 1.27 update was a quick hack to fix the major outstanding issues that would be likely to turn up in reviews, whereas 1.28 would need to be fully tested before being delivered (because having effectively supplied a handset with pre-release software there'd be hell on if the first update didn't work perfectly), but it could still have been handled better.
YESS u should..but to each his own...
For the screen size remarks....
I`m coming from the DHD and the Sensation XE.
And i`m loving the new bigger screen.
The colors,..The sharpness it`s just a marvel
But again what works for one doesn`t have to work for all.
About the speed.....
Just lightning
CF Benchmark
23839, 6010 , 13050
Antutu

Monjori
38 FPS
Nenamark 2
48 FPS
So the CPU goes like a bat out of hell
The GPU at the moment is the same as my Sensation XE ( adreno 220 @ 320Mhz )
Batterylife looks to be OK.
But when u stress it it takes a lot of juice.
The companion core works perfectly cause the standyby hours are super
Hello there i have purchased a desire z on ebay as a new one from a seller . But the mic is not working . When i plug in the headphones its working perfectly , but the native mic from the phone is not working . help me .
thanks
I have the same problem, mine just stopped working, try using a soundrecorder to see whats the output. Mine still works a bit, but only for VERY load things. Sadly theres nothing that you could do about that...

Mic not working
When i record it with sound recorder i get a radio sound , nothing other than that.
It does sound like hardware, the mic is part of the main flex cable and seems veryhard if not impossible to replace on its own. A new flex cost around $30 and takes 30min~hour to replace

Hi XDA i bought an international version of the htc one x that has tegra 3 quad core, 32gb and all the other stuff. so i would to know which variant of lcd is the 100% compatible with my phone.???
as many of you should know there are 3 variants of lcd screen for the htc one x
Sharp= full green one side,
Sony= partial green.
AUO= Full yellow both sides.
the reason i want to buy it is because the phone came without lcd screen, it only has the digitizer (this was what i paid for,,, is not a fraud sell)
Thanks..
Wrong place, this thread is for the Q&A section not general

Hello everyone,
few days ago I broke glass onmy s4 mini... Now the phone work, but I hate glass broken!
A friend of mine purpose an exchange of my broken phone with his xperia s perfectly working with valid warranty. It is a good deal?
Witch one are the biggest problem with the phone?
I heard about a problem with luminosity sensor, did u noticed?
Any other info will be appreciated guys thx u al!
Do you consider replacing the glass/screen?i think its rather a personal decision, and depends on what do you want...our xperia s is kinda old and dont expect big performance. Also, forget official software updates...are you willing to use roms?
I didnt notice any big luminosity sensor problems, maybe its a bit laggy, but it works perfectly. I would worry more about battery life.
Maybe ask your friend to test the device?
Gesendet von meinem Xperia S mit Tapatalk
EDIT: btw, the sxs camera is awesome!
thx mrmigg,
i thougth about glass reparation but it will cost a lot ( i have no skill for self change)
my friend is a classmate, tomorrow i'll keep the device all the day long with me, so i could do a lot of test
i'm a bit worried about battery life, i love s4mini battery
thx for help...i'll tell u what i will decide
Yeah, i think the biggest problem is the battery life and maybe the performance,compaired to the s4mini. However, try it tomorrow and if you like it, welcome to our sxs forum, and dont forget, there are some awesome ROMS out there!

But there's a lot of other options (Moto G4, etc) for not so much more, I like the removable battery and the way the back looks. I've heard some negative about the GPS, but since it has a S410, is it the antenna or software?
The camera seems to lack some in taking pictures outside in daylight too, from what I have read.

The camera is really great, best i ever had and it's the cheapest device i ever bought.
Gps is good enough, surely tops all mediatek devices and is as good as a 250 bucks sony m4 dual for example. Accuracy after fix is very good, fix is super fast with network, in airplane mode without any supplementary data the first fix is slow (around two minutes).
So if you're outside your country and want fast fix with no network the first day you need to be patient. But that is a problem most devices have and it is only of you have no data, no wifi to get the agps data downloaded.
So i would recommend the device.

Alles klar Herr Komischer kommissar! That was more praise than I have read about the device. Hmm, not bad.

And the compass and gyro are working great, too.

So essentially, this mobile is better than the Moto G4 Play, even though it costs less?

G4 play camera is bad but its battery is larger. Same cpu. Same sensors. Take the wileyfox if you dont need a big battery. But the difference is not so big.

I think if I had to buy now, I might take the G4 Play for the bigger battery, but I'm still quite happy with the Swift.
It's a tie, I think.
The Swift has a gyroscope that is missing of the G4 Play. The latter one has bigger battery.
I'm perfectly happy with the Swift (especially if you can grab it on 99£ promotion) but neither will be a bad decision

I would not buy it again. Mainly because of the battery. It does not last a full day and the fact that even though it is removable, this does not help. I have not found the possibility to buy neither a battery nor an external charger.

Batteries are available, but not really cheap. And my device lasts 2 days with cm 13 nightly and beroid kernel installed. Wifi always on but i dont play games... You can tune it even more if you set it do disable cores to last 4 days

I'd get a Wileyfox Spark+ instead of the swift. It has the same specs but feels a lot nice in the hand. Better finish and it just feels a lot more premium. Normally it's also the same price.
