For those who like to rock their HTC One without a case, does the Verizon branding on the back ever bother you?

It doesn't bother me as such but it would be nice and clean if it wasn't there

I mean it's so small compared to any other device almost, it really doesn't matter. It doesn't bother me like the note 2 would haha.

I have the Note 2 and that home button branding is so incredibly distracting.

Another bug, Try locking the phone while you have an active call. As soon as you unlock, the screen shuts off and you can't ever unlock it again until the person on the other end hands up.
Just make sure you test it with a phone you can manually hang up on the other end or you might have to wait till the battery goes flat to end the call lol. Not looking forward to my bill this month!

This is my brothers One X. He said if he can't get a stable Senseless vanilla ROM on it, he's replacing it with the Lumia 900 as soon as it hits Vodafone. Too many bugs and slow updates!

Here's one. If you have the phone set to end calls with the off switch and are using BT, when the screen goes blank there's no way to get it back w/o hanging up on the caller.

I wanted to get the One X but after seeing all the bugs my brother is facing with his, I think my next phone is either the Galaxy S 3 or the Next Nexus.

The grass isn't greener. I had one of the first SGS2's and while the bugs were different there were just as many and they were equally severe. The GN's launch was no walk in the park either. Sadly, we're now the last step in the testing process for all the manufacturers. The best bet is to wait two months from launch so that the phone can finally be "finished."
well there is a CM9 version up and he fixed data now, so it's more or less complete and development is fast.
And today htc released kernel source.

In the past 5 months I've used the Nexus S, Nokia N9, Sensation XE, iPhone 4s and now the GNex and honestly I love it the most! I was stuck on 4.0.1 with Vodafone Australia but I flashed the yakju build right away and received all the updates as soon as they were announced.

Just out of interest.
Ddoes it do this with the standard browser?
You are using the ICS+ from the market which is basically generic ICS.

Sent my Nexus to Samsung :(

So out of nowhere this weekend my nexus's power button was wacky and only working 70% of the times i pressed it. I sent it out to samsung with an RMA number today, and am using my girl's old droid pro for the time being.
Do you get a new phone with an RMA? How long does it typically take? Is it possible theyll say its not broken you just have to start pressing it harder?
Thanks guys.

The policy for all of these carriers is to hand you a refurb first.

Bootloader Unlock

I have a Verizon HTC One that I purchased on the device payment plan. I have searched here and you tube to see if I can unlock the bootloader to install custom roms. I know it has the old bootloader version of 1.54. Any help will be great before my return Window closes.
Sent from my SCH-I605 using Tapatalk 2
No hope of boot loader unlock on that firmware currently. Only option is send to sonic for s-off. Or change carriers to att or someone else and get a one from them, I returned my Verizon one and did just that and couldn't be happier.
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app
Verizon has blocked the bootloader from being unlocked via HTCDev. Currently, the ONLY way to unlock is to send it to Sonic. Visit this thread:

Well thanks community. Looks like I will be returning it. Only reason I tried was because of the radio being better than in my note 2. I may give moto a try

So you are against sending it out to get s-off'd by sonic? That's a permanent root for you...
If not, do some research before you purchase a new $600 device. If root is a MUST for you please take time to make sure a new phone will fit your needs in this matter before you waste their time with return of an otherwise GOOD product.
I apologize if this sounds snarky.... that's not my intent.

If you kept your old phone, reactivate that one, send your One to Sonic to get S-Off (for a very reasonable fee... the java cards are expensive!), then when you get it back, reactivate the one. Done and done!
I did keep my old phone but the simple solution is to just return and wait on the one max

Sonic's s-off was quick and cheap. If you like this phone go for it. You'll be able to flash whatever you want then.

more development will be on the htc one maxx than this phone (unfortunately HTC kinda did again - what they did with the HTC Inc4g I just hope this community actually stays and doesn't leave), not saying that it will get S-OFF faster, but it will have more of a community than us, which = more bounty money = more developers working on exploits. Personally I can't use a phone bigger than 5' large. Again, this is just an opinion from word around the water coolers.

Note 2 dropped in the water, looking for a new device

Hey guys!
As it happens, my Note 2 is now feeding crabs in Mediterranean sea.
I've had a long journey with that phone, got a couple of extended batteries for it, a case, a protection glass and was not planning to change for at least another year, but as it happens, now I need to go for another device.
At first it was a no-brainer to go for Note 3 because of it's similarities, but I've checked the other phones and I'm really intrigued by Nexus 5 and LG G2
Basically, just want to hear what you guys think on this...how much can I get a used Note 2 for, btw?

Anyone's home button make a "crackling/clicking" noise?

This just started happening a day or so ago but it's bothering me big time. I don't even have to press the button all the way down. Just put some minor pressure on it and it makes this clicking or crackling sound. It's not 100% of the time but it's doing it a good bit. Wondering if anyone has experienced this yet with their note 4.
Anyway, I was thinking of bringing it into best buy to exchange for another one. Is that possible? I don't have insurance or anything but being that it's only a couple weeks old, and obviously still covered by warranty, they should be able to exchange. My concern is they will probably look at me like I'm crazy. But when I spend a lot of money on a device, and it's only a couple weeks old and making this noise already, it's quite annoying. My gf has a note 4 too and her button isn't anything like this so it concerns me.
nope. mines incredibly solid.

Same. I mean I know if I go into best buy asking to exchange, they're gonna look at me like I'm crazy for complaining about it. The other problem is it doesn't help all the time. Sometimes I press it and it's fine, other times it does make that noise. So it's hard to reproduce the noise due to it being at random.
My home button has a solid clicking sound, like the rest of the buttons. If yours doesn't sound like the rest of the buttons when they are pressed, you should consider exchanging.

Yeah I think I'm going to go in to best buy tomorrow. Do you need to be able to reproduce the issue for them to exchange? It is definitely still doing it, but not 100% of the time.

Not yet. I had an S4 and Note 3 that did, though. It was quite annoying, and I don't miss it. My N4 is really solid aside from the acceptable volume rocker play.
