blaze91: there will never be a 10/10 phone. And when you get your ideal phone you still face risk of getting a problematic unit. This does not mean the phone is bad . Just you are unlucky. So buy it from store n check thoroughly before paying for it if you are so paranoid over such.
I have used so many type n brands of smartphones n I have learn to accept such reality. Based on my needs the S4 is a better choice for me n I hate each time when I am asked why not HTC1? The HTC 1 I plan to sell off next month but that does not mean is s a poorer phone vs S4

QUOTE(weju @ May 31 2013, 07:29 AM) accidently i got tampered + unlocked ?!! how to remove tampered ?! How can this be accidental? This is purposely done due to bootloader unlock Download stock RUU n flash back stock ROM. There is a guide how to do it at XDA http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2265618BTW the boot loader will show relock not locked as default Once you unlock BL HTC is already aware phone has being unlock. Pointless to relock back This post has been edited by benny888: May 31 2013, 08:55 AM |

QUOTE(tanaumaga @ May 31 2013, 07:43 AM) Does anyone know how to solve the location problem (i.e. Google map can't detect your current location), which happens after the previous update? Strange some of you faces such an issue I don't have such a problem even on previous 707.16 rom I am now on Android HD rom with ElementalX kernel. Perfect combo.

QUOTE : HTC recently confirmed to TechnoBuffalo — though it was fairly obvious — that the developer edition won’t offer BlinkFeed, any form of Sense 5 (which means you’ll need to find something else to power that IR blaster), the Zoe snapshots or the live gallery. That means you can’t use one of our favorite features: the Zoe mode on the camera, which can be used to capture quick 3-second clips that can be combined with photos into a 30-second highlight reel (which, by the way, also isn’t on the developer edition). Beats Audio is still supported, though the phone will not display when it’s active in the status bar. http://www.technobuffalo.com/2013/05/30/ht...the-sacrifices/ |

QUOTE(Vesto @ May 31 2013, 10:13 AM) Alright thanks  So do you think there is a chance to warranty my phone based on the problems above? Use betterbatterystats to check your partial n kernel wakelocks to see what is waking phone when idle SOT 4-5 hours can be achieve easily I don't think is your battery issue until you have analysed your wakelock |

QUOTE(un_id @ May 31 2013, 11:06 AM) Guys, your phone usually get hot when browsing net? I know it surely will generate heat coz the screen on and data usage, but sometime I feel it is slightly above my expectation, I mean it get noticeably warm on my hands.. YES, this HTC One is indeed I'd say the warmest/hottest phone I have used so far. It is about 3-5 degree higher than say Note 2, S4, Xperia Z for same tasks. You'd feel the warmness more also due to its metallic casing which conducts heat better |

I am only 5'5" and I am a small build guy. I already find the HTC One ( and S4) is too small . I am using now the Pantech Vegra 6 ( 5.9 inch display as my main phone ) and has also order the 6.1" display HuaWei Mate ( expect to get it 7 Jun). I can never go back to smaller display phones. I take these phones out only when I go out for my exercise

I decided to sell off some unused casing : the Spigen Ultra Thin is original and in sealed condition as decided not to use it at all. The other 2 are used less than 2 weeks. I decided to settle for a HOCO genuine leather flipcase for the phone. See my post at https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/2832356 |

QUOTE(ArmedandDangerous @ Jun 1 2013, 12:54 PM) HTC has actually officially said that the power button will last longer than their previous phones. Mine only 2 weeks already sunk in n now just very slightly above surface only. Bad n poor construction Now I press HTC logo to switch off display n swipe across soft keys to wake. Works perfectly each time This post has been edited by benny888: Jun 1 2013, 12:58 PM |

QUOTE(Agito666 @ Jun 1 2013, 02:19 PM) want ask uncle benny888, do you normally adjust font size to bigger when you use it?  since my dad with note 1 also have difficult to read with his default text size. too bad the facebook apps cant adjust the font size for him. and err ... change launcher need root right? and need backup all data one ar? wanted to try root my dad note 1 for first time but duno which thing need take pre-caution as if his phone not always with me... thinking flash it with lighter lauhcher to run the phone smoother so the default touchwiz(?) wont be sluggish. i dun have techie colleague using samsung, only htc... so i duno what is the difference flashing samsung and htc method... >_< scare brick my dad phone  At settings/display you can set font size Many apps allow you to set font sizes too. Just need to explore their options Eg my favorite browser boat I can adjust font size up to 200-300% depend on standard font size already chose. Most eBook apps allow to adjust font too. Use friendcaster instead Facebook ad u can increase font size too. |

QUOTE(Agito666 @ Jun 1 2013, 03:23 PM)  i thought the HTC implement the smart-arse AI to tune down volume after a while for user to prevent hearing get bursted... google it first see is it hardware problem or software problem, sound more like software issue.  I always adjust volume way above htc limit n has never experienced vol going down. My longest is watching a musical 3 hours That is why I say is your phone problem |

QUOTE(Agito666 @ Jun 1 2013, 03:51 PM) do you turn off beats? i think i found the beats sound on is the culprit there then if i press jump forward and back to same song, the volume change back to normal level... (with beats on) not sure la, i playing those heavy metal many bass "boom boom" sound one... with headphone on or off, it still lower down volume after a awhile. test more again later on. I off beats only when hearing through phone speakers as sound quality is bad with it on I always on beats with the headphones |
