White version (Taiwan) - haven't discovered any build quality issues so far.
[HTC One X] jonstatt:
On all of my 6 except my current one, a medium squeeze would result in distortion particularly at the corners. I think this phone package is so slightly compressed that this is not unexpected. However, its a bit too easy on the one in the video. And the fact that the phone is creaking, which indicates the screen is coming away from the body is concerning. I had not heard anyone else say their phone is getting worse over time....its usually like that from the start. I guess if its in the pocket and the whole phone is forced to bend due to a tight jeans pocket for example, that it could pressure the screen away from the body
[HTC One X] Audioboxer:
Light pressure on my phone yields no distortion. I would say it's medium pressure and then I can see corner distortion - Very faint side distortion as well. I've not tried hard pressure.

Your newest handset doesn't do it at all? Or does it need a harder push than all the rest?

Also my message earlier about button lights being uneven seems normal

Simply down to LED placement. They must be in the bottom left where it is a little brighter as shown above.
[HTC One X] Ruudfood:
No defects here (white from Taiwan) but I get no feedback when typing on the keyboard which is incredibly annoying!
[HTC One X] jonstatt:
Well I don't want to press any harder...but what I considered medium pressure on the others, does not do it on this phone. They all varied slightly on how much pressure it would take...one was particularly bad, revealing circlular like marks (like screw heads) in the top 2 corners. However on this latest one, the bottom left corner creaked VERY slightly. I used some pressure and held it for 60 seconds. Since then, it has not come away. I suspect that in the factory, the screens are not being pressed hard enough into the casing allowing the sticky lining to properly bond with the phone. The trouble is, if its not done soon enough after manufacture, or dust has already got in, then it may be too late to try what I did.
[HTC One X] M@cNuss:
Got the One X in Grey,works 100% don`t know where it`s build,how do you find out.
[HTC One X] TacticalTimbo:
All I can say is that I'm freakishly careful with my stuff, strangers probably assume I'm handling a Fabergé egg when I take it out/put it in my (not tight) pocket! I did here someone on here voice that it may be down to the high temps it reaches, doing pretty mundane stuff I might add; e.g a bit of extended browsing or 5-10 mins on an average game. I think this suggestion might hold some water, maybe if materials are expanding under heat, repeatedly (compounded over time) and not contracting by the same amount? Also, what about the battery, is there any possibility this is expanding after several charge cycles and then putting pressure on the other components, ultimately pushing the screen against the housing?
[HTC One X] Audioboxer:
After a bit more testing if I tap the bottom right of this phone it produces fairly noticeable circular distortion.

I wonder if HTC can ever fix this though with how thin the phone is it seems like any pressure above lightly gliding over the touch screen is going to cause some distortion.

I may request a return/exchange and see if the next phone is the same, and if it is, I'll give in to this being a design flaw of the One X being as thin as it is.
[HTC One X] Goku80:
is anyone actually thinking of exchanging phones and going with another brand if these issues can not get fixed or if you face constant problems?
[HTC One X] PsiAdster:
Yes.
[HTC One X] erazer007:

HTC One X - White.

Have to check where its made later.

Camera rattling is the only issue so far. Tested for screen flex problem. Doesnt have it as far as I can tell.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MiTUIBOSVTU
[HTC One X] Audioboxer:
My screen flex has seemingly gotten a little worse over night - Do not have any creaking yet, but now even light pushes in the bottom corners, or along the side, shows screen distortion.

Only goes to show it'll probably get much worse over time.

I've sent a request to Affordable Mobiles for an exchange, seeing as it's the weekend they probably won't get back to me till Monday. The phone is still just as usable though, so I'll keep using it over the weekend.

If this is as common as it looks to be getting HTC may need to manufacture the phones differently. I'm already concerned at this point an exchange may be just as bad or even worse.
[HTC One X] Goku80:
let me ask you one thing. when you write a text message and you have haptic feedback on(that is when you touch a key and phone vibrates) do you feel that the phone is creaking for you mate is that what you mean by creaking like the vibration does not feel as solid as other phones
[HTC One X] Audioboxer:
I don't have any creaking or clicking at all (yet!), just screen distortion from light touches on the phone.

When I touch the sides or corners it's almost like I'm directly touching the LCD panel and not glass.
[HTC One X] Goku80:
that is bad...do not have that problem...just have creaking on the two handsets i had so far...going for third one on monday..:D sometimes i wonder if i should of just gone for the Nexus.. on my phone the problem was the annoying off and on with the power button. last night i had that happen to me like ten times. that i am hoping would get fixed with an update.
[HTC One X] jonstatt:
Have you tried what I suggested above? Where it creaks, put a finger behind the screen, and over the screen in the affected area (like a clamp), and hold firmly (not too firmly), for 60 seconds. If the phone has just been taken out of its box, it is possible to set the glue which wasn't properly done at the factory.
[HTC One X] yaggy85:
Hey guys,

Well i got a replacement phone from my provider here in Australia, got it home, and a day later the SAME creaking and looseness around the bottom right hand corner of the device is back again!

I also get some really bad banding along the left hand side of the screen when pressing very lightly..

This video shows exactly whats wrong: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dl1X37IyzdA&feature=youtu.be

I have had enough of the build issues. My Nokia Lumia 800 is built 100 times better than this phone. I can't justify paying for a quad core processor and great screen only to have the build quality of the device completely wreck it for me. I don't think i have ever held such a poorly made/designed smartphone of this caliber in my whole life.

I'm going to request a different phone from my provider, or may cancel the contract altogether.
[HTC One X] Goku80:
yes mate i tried that and still not have it. seems solid..only thing that annoys me is like i said. the power button issue and when i text it does not feel as solid as when texting on my s2...i do not i feel as the screen my break loll i shall see in the next phone on monday
[HTC One X] Audioboxer:
Wondering if the glue used is simply cheap crap, and the phone during normal atmosphere temperature (like here in the UK :P) takes a while to heat itself up from the inside - Where it does get quite hot. Where as in Australia it's that warm it may be making things worse quicker when combined with the phones temperature.

Either way I'd like HTC to acknowledge this and say what's causing it - Which they probably won't for PR reasons... :mad:

Don't think anyone is safe until they tweak their manufacturing process and sell all the current stock - That could take weeks.
[HTC One X] Ruudfood:
Please excuse my ignorance but why are you pressing it in the corners? Is that something you will do during everyday usage? :eek:

In my mind that's like banging your head against a wall then complaining: "It hurts when I do this!" :rolleyes:
[HTC One X] Audioboxer:
Maybe not that often, but the corners are going to get pressure on them from time to time if not by hands, in a pocket, or a bag. Or when taking a phone out of a case, or holding it in one hand.

Simply put, other smartphones I've owned do not do this at all, or require very heavy pressure (abnormal for any phone).

The HTC One X is doing it by lightly getting pushed - At this stage if your phone is suffering from it day 1, one can only assume it will get worse over time. Touch your monitor or TV, you'll immediately get the distortion, and for the sake of your TV/monitor stop doing it and not want to do it again. Now imagine that on a TOUCH controlled phone. I don't want to feel restricted to the parts of my phone I can touch with normal phone style presses.
[HTC One X] kreilinger:
i had my grey one x for exactly 10 days when i noticed that the screen was flickering when showing grey images. 1 day later i noticed that i got a little yellow shining area on the middle-left side of the screen. i returned it to the shop where i bought it and got a new one. now all my problems are gone.

i even noticed a slightly faster charging speed and longer battery life on my new device, so everything works perfect for me now.
[HTC One X] Tonyipad2:
Where does it said the one X is made? After reading all the posts stating where their phones are made Im now curious to know where mine is made? I have checked every where on the phone but couldn't find any info stating the manufactured info.
[HTC One X] jonstatt:
THis latest one I have, which is actually an earlier serial number...I have pushed fairly hard and I cannot get the screen to distort at all. It is amazing how much they vary! As this one started with a very slight creak on the bottom left corner (which I cured by holding it down for a while)....I just hope it doesn't come back or get worse, because this otherwise is finally a good one.

Okay see it now mine was also made in Taiwan :rolleyes: thanks phew good thing I didn't throw the lunch box away :p

Led notification

I think my phone has a problem. I can see the LED notification blinking between the glass and the speaker grille. (Sorry my english :(

Someone noticed this detail?
[HTC One X] TacticalTimbo:
Yes I have this, it's because the sheet of gorilla glass on the front is too small and therefore leaves a gap at the top, this allows for light from the led to spill through. Also if yours is white, you'll likely see the polycarbonate shell at certain angles, especially in daylight.
[HTC One X] DazzXP:
My screen is not correctly grounded, so technically is a defect.
[HTC One X] fi3ry_icy:
Now that u mention this.. everything seems to make sense now..

It is hard to believe that the problem would actually lie with tegra 3 and nvidia instead of poor quality control but it might truly be the case this time round..

If the one xl launched in the us at the same time as the one x, we would be able to make better correlation ..
[HTC One X] DrPlumEU:
Grey HTC One X made in Taiwan. T-mobile UK locked

Heavy usage since purchase 3 days ago. Has been rooted.

Antutu benchmark score 10500

No major issues.

Niggling issues

Sl rattle near camera - is this microSim rattling in its caddy?

Does get very warm around camera end after couple hours use; does cool down quickly.

Random dropped phone signal

Corrupted icons from Folder Organiser; fixed by deleting homescreen icons/shortcut and starting over.

Widget for doggcatcher and spotify not available; these were fine on ICS running on tablet.

Overall very happy.
[HTC One X] sacredabyss:
How do you guys know where your one x is made? is that something you can see in the settings/about phone?
[HTC One X] Tonyipad2:
Hey mate Ive asked the same question yesterday lol it doesn't show on the phone it self its on the white tag label that came with the box, the big white strip that wraps the lunch box:D
[HTC One X] nanoo-eg:
I receive my HOX yesterday. Is perfect at all. I checked everything from the known issues.

I am coming from SGSII.

HOX is better at all. Of course has a small delay at the opening some applications but I am sure with the next ota will be ok.

Nice camera, easy and super fast.

So I think like at every new mobile the are problems at some lots.

25% is big but don't forget the most owners with correct devices didn't involved at the poll.

sample pics for camera problem

Got my replacement for my camera issue....New device also have the same issue that camera can't process images greater than 3mb in 4:3 mode.....checked with demo device also....finally sent a mail to HTC with sample pics

Image appear blank/ corrupted
[HTC One X] Ariozo:
Sound like the problem i have on my new X, other then that it works nice. But when i type on keyboard the haptic 95% feel like it hit to hard and the "crack" Sound comes..
[HTC One X] ilprofessore:
anyone else with this problem?
[HTC One X] Aja82:
I have this issue as well. Dont know if Im going to do anything about it though since the phone is perfect in all aspects but this.

What concerns Me now though is that ive noticed it has started to collect dust in the crack between the screen and the plastic frame.

Im on my third HOX so I really dont feel like switching again. Sigh.

[HTC One X] vegetaleb:
So if I buy a One X in the coming 2 weeks, (2nd or 3rd batch), what are the chances to have screen flickering??
[HTC One X] hamdir:
Hi bro, i posted my hands on yest , we bought four in the same time at star comm, fresh batch all sealed with HT242 new serials and new smaller packaging, taiwan

all of them have varying of screen flex/creaking, if you hold it down for a while and press hard, it sticks and goes away, also using the tight DHD pouch seems to hold it together, i'm talking very slight flex to begin with, the worst 1 week old 1x which in flexing is still holding well after pressing it down + pouch

with the exception of one they all LCD ripple if you press hard at the side edges of screen which is no one should do

slight screen variation in whiteness goes away slightly after usage, it has a warm hue hoping it goes less as the glue settles, heat is no big deal some smell came out, again i think its the fresh glue, no screen flicker no spots no dead pixels

phone are working perfect otherwise, no shop would return them on these complaints they r just silly and finally they all have the status bar/gallery/video glitches, all occurring randomly in the same location and goes away on a reboot or factory reset, MX player in HW mode doesn't cause the glitch no matter how hard i try, so the glitches are software, if hardware they wouldn't go away when you change screen orientation and MX player would break too and most importantly if its hardware its hard to belive they occur in the exact same way and location and all device

end of the story, slight imperfections in build and the software is not done, ie: rushed

everything else is FUD and drama for no reason

the device is flirting with perfection

as for your question check at star com, lower brightness to min and to max and auto, if it doesn't flicker in grey, your are good
[HTC One X] vegetaleb:
I think I will wait to see if FW 1.28 will take out screen problems, I am not in a hurry.

Do you think your actual screen problems are hardware?
[HTC One X] hamdir:
what screen problems? the glitches its in all One X mate clearly software i explained why, they appear rarely and go away

670$ by the way on saturday ;)
[HTC One X] nikzDHD:
Don't rule out HW issues, SGS2 had screen issues no amount of firmwares or kernels could fix these they were clearly HW. Faulty screens can occur like any other product.
[HTC One X] vegetaleb:
You said if you press on the corners it does ripple effects (like on the samsung Jet I had)

Stars usually decrease 30-60$ every tuesday ;)

So it will be this tuesday or next one ;)
[HTC One X] hamdir:
yes on the side not ton the screen itself, it does a typical LCD ripple which it shouldn't i know but its hit and miss, i dont think HTC is considering it a problem most of the ones we opened yest had it, and since i had it its never occuring during use, its very hard to make it happen

only one handset which has a slightly bright screen is completely free of ripple, its also been open for over 1 week now so maybe it heals? :p

Flex which like really tiny flex have no effect on the scree, its a seperate thing than the ripple

screen ripple is not software though and not a defect in my eyes, its a hardware trait, it needs intentional effort to make it manifest

people are just being too damn picky

all my iColleauges yesterday were floored they didn't believe what they are saying and couldn't say a word against except "di3ano bil android" but they did say it it makes the iPhone 4s look old gen

but i admit i was scared to death the gallery glitches won't occur while we were playing with the camera :D

attached is my grey vs the 1 week older white, you can see the different in color warmness, mind you compared to other screens they are both considered warm calibrated, the pics show big difference but in reality, the white had like 15% more brightness which is why its whiter, but im thinking it might be the lamination glue after a week of use, they are really 90% exact in practice

here is how it is today, keep in mind its a lot worse at this angle plus with camera, taken by the Sensation camera, ill take another one in few days
[HTC One X] vegetaleb:
You didn't have flickering on all the models?

i updated my post by the way
[HTC One X] vegetaleb:
I wonder if these flex and ripples are not related to SLCD2 technology?

what about this kind of bug: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YKAM3fDp30Q&feature=related
[HTC One X] skywalker1970:
No issues. Voted. Grey made in Taiwan. Used for 2 days so far.

Can't comment on battery life as yet as its too soon.
[HTC One X] hamdir:
mate i pointed the flex/ripple to the guys with me buying @ stars and they were not even fuzzed, nevermind it just test your device

and honestly the worst flexing screen of my cousin went back into place by some pressure and using the DHD official pouch, his phone fell down later and still good

im not saying its all wonderful, im saying the problems are not as disasterous as people make it sound

if flex is pretty bad and causing screen problem ok maybe we should worry

but imagine this the One X is exactly like the sensation the back cover is just a shell and you could still use the Sensation without its back cover at all! whats flexing is the main phone against its shell thats all, no reason to worry, ripple is not from the screen pressure but the sides, might be related to how proximite it is to surface, if i have to choose less surface proximity or ripple, i choose ripple that is no way to trigger in normal use

ok HTC should pay me!!
[HTC One X] d33f:
I wish it was, but since today i noticed that my phone is suffering from the rippling LCD :(

I was playing Galaxy on Fire and when i tried touching the exit button on screen i noticed the LCD ripple on the bottom of my screen :(. Believe me there was little to no pressure applied since i was only touching a onscreen button.. That was the moment i noticed the ripple for the first time and sadly now that i know about it, i can see it often on dark/black screens
[HTC One X] hamdir:
I think i was lucky, my phone is almost perfect now, its a keeper

definitely the yellow hue is reducing, ill post a photo in two days to prove it and like i said flex is gone

@d33f my ripple can not happen unless i press hard, otherwise on normal touch it never occures

best of all, my heat is definitely acceptable

zero flicker or jumpiness, but the usual graphics acceleration glitches in Sense which are not occurring often

buttons have a very nice firm press feel

im still to encounter a DOA One X in here...
[HTC One X] shaw23:
I was worrying about my choice to get the one x after reading all the faults/ problems being experienced, BUT I am one of the lucky ones it seems ( so far anyway only just had it 2 full days)

I have no screen flex, no flicker even on full brightness, no creaking, the phone doesnt have any heat issue's and no dead pixels.

I do have a very slight yellow tinge at the bottom but only on a white background (looks like its getting better with time also).

Happy with the battery as i know it will improve.

In short I LOVE THIS PHONE!!! coming from my trusted HD2 its a big improvment.

The only slight gripe is that the touchscreen seems less responsive when on charge, but not enough that i would make an issue out of it!

I have a white HOX made in taiwan.

VERY happy with my handset!!! :D
[HTC One X] znanev:
I've replaced my phone the moment a dead pixel appeared on the screen. It was definitely not there when I bought it. But what is worst with the replacement is, that it seems the magnetic sensor is not working at all! And strangely the g-sensor was not responding until I forced the phone in Safe mode. Now the g-sensor works, but the magnetic sensor is still dead. So today I am returning the phone for a refund and will wait a bit to see if those hardware and software issues will be ironed out soon.
[HTC One X] vegetaleb:
So when I will pass to buy the One X I should go directly to the brightness settings and make it 0 to 100%,right? Any other trick to detect screen problems?
[HTC One X] Goku80:
got my 3rd replacement today and went for the grey one...and i have to say one thing...it is god damn sexier than the white and no problems what so ever..feels more solid than the white ones i had and no screen issues or nothing at all..no rattle and the annoying little gap at the top were the power button was now on the grey one you can not see it at all... i am very happy:D feel like a tear coming now....hehe
[HTC One X] znanev:
The flickering is most pronounced on grey backgrounds. What I would recommend you is to do some more thorough testing of the phone before stepping out of the store. Yesterday I've got a replacement and once I went back home I noticed the g-sensor is not responding at all!! So it will help to invoke the HTC test application (wish I knew about this yesterday!) - you can perform some screen/sensors tests from there. Open the dial pad and dial:

*#*#3424#*#*

Hope this helps.
[HTC One X] hamdir:
exactly everything is working on these tests, if i go to the store and say return it because it ripples when i press so hard from the sides he will laugh at me or if i say there is 10% more yellow on the top of the screen than in the bottom or if i say it makes a creaking sound if i pressure one side hard enough

you guys are too spoiled in your countries :D
