[Q] Verizon HTC ONE and Sprint HTC ONE PARTS - Verizon HTC One (M7)

Need Help here.
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.
Thanks for the reply

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

[Q] different volume bug, same thing or broken phone

have i got the volume bug if my phone hangs and then reboots every time i touch volume up or down when the screen is on? Samsung insist that its the same thing and i need to wait for the update but i can't see anyone else describing that the problem causes a reboot, and my volume has never actually turned down on it's own as far as i can tell.
That sounds different altogether.

Thats what i suspect. Its just a pain to have been waiting for 4 days for something that probably wont fix anything and then to have to start the whole thing over again with samsung. O well

Deal with the retailer you bought the phone from, and get a replacement from them.

I'll give it a go. Im guessing they wont do a doorstep swap like i'd get from t mobile though. Hopefully i wont be without it for long. In our short time together i've grown quite attached to this phone (and almost got used to not touching the volume button)
Couple of questions (you may have already done these -apologies if you have)
Have you tried a factory reset? If not, maybe worth trying it, could be an app doing wierd things.
Also, try running a logcat trace when replicating the issue - see if it helps point in the direction of the issue.
Does the phone still crash when you're in the bootloader? (This _may_ help to rule out application related issues)
I have tried a factory reset. Weird thing is that im pretty sure that it didnt do it for the first few hours that i was playing with it. It was just at the point that i had it all set up that i first noticed it so assumed it was a rouge app and did a factory reset. When it rebooted i signed in and hit volume and it crashed so its definately not an app.
I almost believed that it was the normal volume bug because if i go somewhere more remote in the house, away from all electrical stuff, i can hammer at the buttons for a while before it crashes so maybe ive just got a more extreme version of the bug. Just noone else seems to have anything close. Volume control works fine in a call and when the screen is off but i havent tried in bootloader yet. I'll give it a go

[Q] Steering wheel icon?

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?

I have optimus t, first gen galaxy tab, and xoom tab now, but never seen this icon that's why

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.
Just out of curiousity, how did you screenshot with a stock rom

Strangely, it's gone by it self this morning, wired
Maybe it's time to go for an aftermarket rom

[Q] Update caused slow camera start from lock screen and slow to turn on

After upgrading from 4.0 to 4.1 I found that my phone won't switch on until I press the power button three times although sometimes it does switch on first go. Then, I installed the latest OTA patch to 4.1.1, software number 3.14.401.31 (international version) and found that accessing the camera from the lock screen, with security pattern enabled, is very slow. That is when you drag the camera to the unlock ring and release, the lock ring pauses for about 5 seconds before the camera starts up. This didn't happen before the last update.
So far I have taken the camera out of the unlock bar and rebooted the phone and turned off geo-tagging photos. None of these options helped.
If I turn off the pattern unlock then accessing the camera from the lock screen is normal so this appears to be something to do with accessing the camera with the pattern unlock enabled.
Hi,
I have encountered the same thing - seems like you're the only one who has reported it on these forums so far. I hadn't tried disabling the pattern unlock, thanks for the tip. I'll try this. But I'm quite unhappy about this new bug that just came out of nowhere with the 4.1 update, especially knowing that the camera quick start was one of the features HTC boasted about so much!
Yeah, not much on it at the moment but the upgrade is quite recent. Hopefully more people will find this thread and we can get some traction.
Same problem here, me and my wife. Wery annoing!

I emailed HTC and they replied the next day which was good. They asked me to reset the camera app, reboot the phone and then factory reset the phone if the other things didn't work. It didn't fix it yet so I'll see what they come up with next.

No factory resetting my phone didn't work. HTC rang me back and said that I need to return it to who I bought it from. In other words no fix and returning certainly won't prove anything. I think I'll just have to wait it out until it is fixed with another update ... hopefully.
Or maybe we should looking at getting an app that provides the same functionality?
Have te same bug guys :/

I tried the factory reset too, to no avail. Seems like disabling the phone lock is the only solution, but that's not really what I would call a satisfactory solution, since I'm using a VPN on my phone and that requires a lock + I just don't want to go lock-free.
We need this issue to be known to HTC and hopefully a fix will come.
Ps I don't think this problem was present in the JB update, but only came in the small FW update that followed.

Yeah it only came in the small update after the JB update. But another problem that I'm having is that to turn my phone on via the power button, sometimes I have to press the power button three times. It doesn't always happen, but sometimes after the phone has been off for a while, I hit it once and nothing, hit it again, nothing and then on the third press it comes on. I'm not sure if they are related to the "quick" camera launch problem.
One work around for this bug, if you use your camera a lot, is to leave your camera in standby mode. That is turn your phone off while the camera is active and then when you hit the power button it will go straight to camera. I don't use this myself as I have the lock pattern on to prevent my phone from turning on in my pocket which is common on HTC phones
HTC support are a waste of space
I have this issue too. HTC told me to factory reset it, then when that didn't work they told me to return it to the store to be sent away for repair. They really don't have a clue at HTC support.
The phone was returned to Vodafone yesterday and the repair centre said "no fault found" What are they on!!! The Vodafone store confirmed the issue was still there.
I now have the phone back with no resolution.
Going to call Consumer and get some advice.
I have this problem too, quite annoying.

[Q]Phone won't auto-rotate/malfunctioning sensor

My t999 lost autorotation after flashing custom roms, but I don't remember if I had it originally on tw. I've tried flashing latest Liquid Smooth, CM nightlies, PACman, Paranoid with full wipes between and nothing has worked. I even read through the flashing guide (even though I'm not new to android or rooting/flashing) and tried the triple wipe/double boot and that didn't help.
So I have been googling and searching xda and could only find one thread on the issue (I'd link but I'm new) but I tried everything listed and it didn't help.
Is anyone having the same problem or know how to fix it?
Go back to full stock and check if it broken or not. Otherwise you can replace by tmobile or samsung since its manufactures fault.
Odin latest firmware. Check stickies on development section.

Can Odin run on a mac? I've used it on my pc but its out for repair. I'm currently downloading a tw based rom but if that doesn't work I'll return to true stock.

I dont think he is so stupid.
Well thinking back to when I got this phone, it's a refurb replacement for one that i broke the screen, I remembered that i tried the flip to mute music and it never worked. I believe that its a defective device and will contact T-Mobile but I will continue working with it.
I tried FrostyJB and no rotation.
Haha obviously I have checked Auto-rotation and I tried unchecking then pulling the battery and then booting and rechecking. I've tried unchecking, rebooting into recovery (through power menu and manually), wiping cache then booting and checking it. And also the thread I read at androd forums said to boot into download mode then pull the battery but that did nothing, others there said that they dropped their phones and that fixed it but I have never dropped my current phone ( I recieved it on sunday) so thought that that was not going to work so attempted it anyway. I slammed it on my couch and dropped it from a few inches onto my coffee table with no results.
I will need to return it to full stock anyway if I want to bring it in so I will do that through Odin and triangle-away, and if I still have no rotation I will report back and look into getting a replacement.
Some phones have their sensors messed up, I had a Mytouch 4G that had issues when calling. Would get a call the proximity sensor would turn off screen when I'm talking but when the call was over screen would not turn on. I had to reboot most of the time unfortunately it's not really fixable something so fragile,so eventually i just change the hex values so the screen wouldn't turn off during a call problem solved.

there is a sensor test on most of the stock roms
in the stock dialer:
Quick Test Menu
*#7353#
select the Accelerometer test and tilt the phone whatever way you want.
If the arrows don't change, then the sensor isn't working. If the Arrows do change, then all good, problem in rom setup.......
Good Luck

Defective phone, T-Mobile is replacing for free.

I747m screen problem...please help!

Ive searched everywhere and can't seem to find anyone with a solution. Ive found a post with the same problem but no solution.
So yesterday my s3 started having problems waking up. Meaning when I lock it usually you bring up the lock screen by pressing the power button or home button. Problem is when I press either one, screen doesnt come on. The buttons do. If I tap the screen I can hear the ripple effect but the screen doesnt light up. I have to keep locking and unlocking till it finally works. Averege of about 6 tries. When I get a call most of the time the screen doesnt come on either. I can still answer since I know where the slider is. When I do turn it on everything works perfect. No flickering or any other issues. When it boots it works perfect...never fails. Just when I lock it.
I tried restoring already, thinking its a software issue...still does it. What piece of hardware could cause this? I'm stumped. Please any advice would be great.
I'm not rooted and running 4.1.1 oem rogers software.

My guess is that you have something draining all your RAM or being hard on your CPU. When you restored, did you factory reset?
You might have to backup your stuff, factory reset. Test it, if it still does it, bring it up with Rogers for a replacement. If it doesn't, reinstall your stuff until you find the culprit.
You could troubleshoot it also by uninstalling the latest apps you installed.

Like I said...Already did a factory reset. Meaning All apps were gone. Started fresh. Even without going through the first setup (setting up google account etc etc) if I lock the phone its hard to wakeup.
Phone is out of warranty so no go there....
I'm just not understanding what is causing it. I know the screen is fine...buttons are fine...everything points at a software problem. I found a post from a while back where someone was having the same problem....no solution was posted though. I even took the phone apart last night thinking a bad connection or something...disconnected the screen and reconnected it...didn't do anything.
If the screen was going bad wouldn't I have issues all the time? Once I wakeup the phone it works perfect...no flickering or anything. When it boots (which I've done like 30 times between today and yesterday) the screen has come on every single time perfectly fine. Everything tells me it's software related...but after doing a factory reset and running original firmware it seems as though it must be a hardware issue...but which component.
I know the phone wakes up when I press the buttons...I can see the menu and back buttons light up...and if I tap the screen the ripple sound is there...just the screen doesn't wake up....till I try a few more times....very frustrating.
Thanks Again for trying...if anyone has any ideas....greatly appreciated. I'll try and find original Rogers firmware and install with odin...see if that works....

Sounds indeed like software issue. I'm not so sure what would cause it on stock rogers though.
Either way, you can find the stock ROM on sammobile.com or on this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1822308
You'll need Odin to flash it. (It doesn't trigger the flash counter)

Did you buy your phone with a credit card? Some cc's have warranty built in. Mine doubles what the manufacturer offers.
Thanks for the link. I will try it tonight and post the results. Really hoping it works.

I downloaded the newest firmware. 4.1.2 official rogers. Problem persists. Must be a hardware issue. Thing is what could cause this? Is it the screen...is it the gpu? I imagine if its gpu the phone is only good for parts as I imagine its part of the motherboard. Oh well...might be getting the s4 sooner then planned.

If you're down for a little test, you could try with a custom ROM.
Use the link I gave you and flash pre-rooted Rogers' ROM. From there, install TWRP (or cwm) using goomanager (from the Play Store) and flash a custom ROM as per their instructions (Don't forget the Gapps).
Before anything though, make a backup
Never know, might save you some time on that S4.

Thanks. I might try it. Dont think I have too much to lose at this point. I always try and keep my phones nice so that when I get a new one I can sell the old one for good money to help offset the cost. This really messes with that system as the phone isn't worth much now...just bought an extended battery too...was planning to keep it for at least another 6 months.
Sent from my SGH-I747M using xda app-developers app
So just a quick update. For no apparent reason the phone started working fine again. It now turns on and off just fine. I'm not going to mess around with it anymore. That's really bizzare. I'll give it a couple days and will report back if it continuous to work fine or if the problem comes back. Thanks for the input.
