So here's the problem, guys:
Whenever I try to take 720p, after clicking the camera button to finish the recording it slides the video, but the camera remains black and doesn't show anything (freezing).
You can use HOME button to go the main menu, but still after relaunching camera app it slides the photos but no image from camera at all.
It starts working again only after rebooting. Got NoDo, changed registry setts only in unlock state and dehydration.
UPD: it also freezes sometimes even at capturing 480, but not always. in about 40-50%.
Guys
Just notiiced on my stock HOX, that when I record a video in Full HD, it is fine in portrait position (held upright), but if turn the phone to landscape it still shows the playback in portrait mode.

Sometimes I have the opposite XD
I've noticed that the accelerometer won't always trip so I think I'm holding the phone landscape and recording thus, but it's actually in portrait XD
Make sure that the gallery icon always matches the screen orientation, if the problem persists try to recalibrate the G-sensor I think...
Settings > Display & gestures > G-Sensor calibration
Then follow the onscreen info.
Yeah tried that the same, seems strange, will check my other HOX, odd as the Sensor works fine for everything else.
I noticed that a Hard Reset fixed mine too when you hold down power for 10 seconds.
Got nowhere so contacted HTC and got the response below saying its normal ???

Thank you for contacting HTC regarding your HTC One X.
My name is Carola and I am a Technical Support Agent for the HTC Written Team.
I understand when you record a video clip in portrait position then you turn the phone to landscape it still shows the playback in portrait mode.
This is a normal function in the phone, due to the original screen format in which was recorded, it reduces it's size to have the complete view in the other view mode you choose.
For additional information regarding the camera in your phone you can have at this link

i've just noticed that you need it to change orientation BEFORE starting the recording, once its recording it doesn't change it.
it just depends what orientation you have it first, as to which way the video will appear when playing back.

See my post?
yeah, just your post doesn't mention that it doesn't change it whilst recording, even if the g sensor is calibrated properly. (which i could swear they used too, maybe not though)
Think this issue is that I was rotating the device after during recording.
That explains why on some clips there is no issue (where i did not rotate).
Guess I just assumed the device accelerometer was clever enough to rotate.
Thanks guys.
i reckon the reason they don;t have it rotating whilst recording, is that if for instance you played it back on a tv, i would find it really annoying if i the whole video frame kept swapping orientations through a video.
So I have this weird issue with my OP5T, whenever I play a video in full screen (landscape orientation), using YouTube Vanced, VLC, or any video video applications, after some time, I'd say around 2 to 5 min, my phone orientation automatically switches back to portrait without even touching or holding the phone in my hand.
I was wondering if anyone ever had this issue and eventually found a fix for this behavior ?
Yea i got the same thing ....but mine dose it in most apps....not just watching videos.... Gyro sensor is way off...just can't find how to fix .....
This issues applies if you are using a launcher which has the google app on left swipe of the home screen. If you kept your phone on maximum battery saver mode (which uses 720p resolution) for a while and then changed back to 1080p or 1440p resolution, then the pics in the news articles appear distorted. The only way to fix it is to clear the google app data or reboot the phone. Is there any other solution?
I have noticed that when I take a selfie, and then click on it to view it, it displays normally for a second, but then auto-blurs the selfie. I don't actually like that- I'd rather see the real image, not a beauty-filtered one. How can I turn off whatever mechanism is doing this?
Are you talking about the blur/bokeh in portrait mode or face retouching? Portrait mode will blue the background while keeping the subject in focus. There is also an icon on the top left corner of the camera that looks like a face with a star on it which adjusts face retouching. Options are off, natural or soft. This is on both camera and portrait mode.
Additionally for photos you've already taken in portrait, when viewing them in the camera roll there are two copies of the image and you can toggle the bokeh/blur on and off.
