Loading...

Was playing with my friend's One X today (I have a GSII), noticed that quite often when pressing the home button in an an the home screen appears faded out with a "loading..." spinning wheel in the middle for a few seconds. Is this a known issue? My phone has never had an issue similar to this (GB or ICS) and obviously the X is faster.

Cheers

sense 4 heavy mem and not "kept" in "mem" properly... yes big BUG!
[HTC One X] H-Cim:
Let's hope all the bugs (or at least most of them) get fixed in the 1.28 update!
[HTC One X] :
I suspect I know one of the 'battery improvements' the imminent OTA update.

In testing the forth-coming CoreDroid ROM, we've noticed that when connected to WiFi, the phone doesn't drop It's connection from 3g to 2g like it should. Is staying on 3g unnecessarily. Noticing alarming battery drain on WiFi? When on WiFi I manually switch off 3g and I'm getting much better battery life. 12 hours up and 49% left with 4 hours screen on time. That's more like it.

Give it a go people.

( sorry if already mentioned in here. The search feature on the xda app is for s***)
[HTC One X] DazNoonan:
Will give this a try later today and report back... I must say that yesterday I did notice that both my WIFI and 3G symbols were on at the top on the status bar; which would make sense with what you just said.
[HTC One X] :
Yes It's not always showing both symbols on together, but it's definitely not switching to 2g.

As a temporary work around (as I've already purchased it) I'm using a handy automation app called Tasker to handle the switching. When it sees me connected to any WiFi AP, it automatically switches off 3g, and reverses it when I loose WiFi connection.

Working well so far. It has also resumed is roll of handling battery low and night time scenarios now that HTC have left it out of the power management settings.
[HTC One X] DazNoonan:
Thanks for the info on the App... I will have a look for that later once my replacement unit has arrived and has been charged. It's due between 9:30-10:30; so from pretty much now until around says 5pm I will be without a phone whilst it charges... This time I'm hoping it worth the wait of the charge and that it's problem free :)
[HTC One X] dmestriner:
I just tried a One X from one of my classmates, and he said he hasn't encountered any bug whatsoever (not the screen jumping and also not the statusbar glitch). I tried to reproduce the statusbar glitch and indeed nothing happened. I checked the software version and we both run exactly the same software (1.26.401.2)

So I'm really curious as to what exactly causes these bugs on my phone, and not on his?
[HTC One X] DazNoonan:
This is the million dollar question for most of us I think... As I've said in many threads now its so in-consistant its crazy!
[HTC One X] :
Yes the Desire S was fantastic in reliability until about September last year, when all of a sudden it started racking up 1 star reviews on amazon. I think production shifted to a different factory and the results were noticeable.

I'm guessing It's happening from launch on this phone because it's a flag ship and as such, it's certainly in production in at least two countries that I know of. China and Taiwan.
[HTC One X] asci:
Here they are my problems with OneX:

Major issues

1. The signal is weak and unstable so that the voice during callings skips.

2. I experienced a couple of time the lost of signal. No way to have it back untill I rebooted the phone.

3. I have the death grip. It happens when you hold it with the left hand

4. Battery life is not that much, comparing it to the Galaxy Nexus one

Minor issues

1. Google widgets (Gmail and Calendar) didn't upgrade.

2. Some graphic problems here and there...
[HTC One X] DazNoonan:
Well on my first phone it said Taiwan and my second one has just arrived and it says Taiwan on the sticker on the side of that also. I've just put in on charge so just need to wait until its fully charged before I turn it on and test things out. I know a few people have said it states in the manual to leave it on for 6/7 hours but I have read the docs again and can't see anything about charge time; I will leave it until the light is green I imagine.
[HTC One X] vegetaleb:
Just to add my testimony and cool down people who have battery drain and overheatings.

I have a Sensation with One S ported rom, yesterday I had:

-No network bug (while all the people near me had full bars)

-Overheating while no apps or games running and screen off

-Huge battery drain of about 30% in 1 hour!

I NEVER had these problems before with any Sense 3.5 or 3.6 roms.

Conclusion: it can be a bad port as it can show that the problems you have on 1.26 One X are purelly software related and a 1.28 upgrade should repair most of these bugs
[HTC One X] Arthur Hucksake:
Thanks for the insight, that clears a few things up. I came over from a Sensation running 3.6 and loved it so was a shock to the system with some of the issues i've been having especially battery life.
[HTC One X] DazNoonan:
Being software related is obviously 100% better than it being hardware related. As mentioned most of the bugs you can live with; however it all depends on how long you have to live with them for though. If its a week or two then most people would be happy; but if its going to be a lot longer then people are well within their rights to not be happy.

When I spoke to Vodafone yesterday nobody else had reported the problems I was reporting; which makes me think that not many handsets can be experiencing the problems as no doubt Vodafone (and other carriers) will have shipped loads of these units. Either that or people do have the bugs and are not worried by them I guess?

I'm also confused how there is so many different variants of the 1.26 software; are the last few numbers carrier specific and nothing to worry about or are there in fact different variants of 1.26?

Lastly... Nobody is saying this device isn't amazing as it really is a fantastic bit of bit; it's just that the bugs need resolving. Having an official statement on how soon this will be would probably stop most of the continuous posting on issues too. It's a shame HTC (and the carriers) are being so quite on this.
[HTC One X] Sckank:
I had quit a big problem getting my mobile data to work. The local shop didnt get it to work, my mobile provider didnt, but after a couple hours of trying and failing it connected. Really wierd.
[HTC One X] hytyip:
Did anyone have the alarm issue?

The alarm does not trigger, when the phone is in idle.

Also when I use the chrome beta browser, sometimes the url bar and the menu icon are disappear, it only shows a white bar.
[HTC One X] @home:
I'm getting a lot of 'Gapps.com has stopped working, ok it and it goes but they do come back. Mainly to do with contacts
[HTC One X] DazNoonan:
Phone taken off charge and has been setup. The setup wizard did crash and ask me to report to HTC (which I did); it then continued and appears to have completed successfully. I've used it for around 15 mins and the problem with the jumping hasn't happened as yet so I will see how that goes.

The strange thing this time is that there are images already on the device (very nice ones may I add) and there is also music showing in the music App. These were not on my previous phone which obviously now seems strange as they are clearly there to show you what the phone can do, so I'm taking it as a good sign they are on this one.

I have updated all the Vodafone Apps as per the prompt and also updated all the Apps that came pre-installed as I was prompted for that when I opened the Play Store. I have not downloaded any new Apps as yet and probably won't until later when I've seen how I get on with this... (there was 11 Play Store Apps to update).

I have customised my Scene as I did before changing it from the Vodafone one to the HTC one and then also on to Aluminium. I basically wanted to get the phone setup how I want to use it as quickly as possible; which as I'm sure you would agree makes sense so I can compare to the first unit I had.

I've probably talked too much and given too much info but just wanted to cover all bases ready for when I update again on my findings with the second device.
[HTC One X] keeenif:
thanks for that! such a noob, wish i could have it on auto bightness tho.
[HTC One X] fetto666:
Dialer eating 84% battery!

Hello,

I have never had this problem before, and it appeared today.

No phone calls where made, no sms sent..

Still, 84% battery was consumed by the "Dialer" within a few hours.

Can it be a virus/malware?

I haven't installed anything not from market, and all i have done today is flash the latest clockwork mod.
[HTC One X] WC_EEND:
Worst thing I had so far was overheating yesterday. I was watching flash video using the Chrome beta while charging the phone. It got really hot and suddenly the notification LED started blinking red and green which I assumed meant it was overheating. So I turned off the phone, waited 5mins to let it cool down a bit, then turned it back on again and continued charging. I do hope the overheating gets fixed because that is a major issue in my book. Other than that, my One X is absolutely perfect.
[HTC One X] Goku80:
same here mate. my phone is perfect. could not be any happier with it. ok the overheating issue can be resolved hopefully with the next updates from HTC. also once the development starts picking up i am sure custom kernels will resolve this issue.

one thing i noticed is when locking the phone, sometimes it kinda turns on by itself. weird. but not that very often it happens.

most of the little niggly issues i have are software related i would imagine. and also once i get a nice case to protect the body i am more than happy.

at the end of the day i would recommend this phone to people and it is a joy to have
[HTC One X] petronelduca:
Hi there. Just put my hands on the One X, and I've just noticed that in the notification bar it keeps coming a symbol that reffers to call forwarding, and there is no way to take it of. Can somebody help me please?

Thank you.
[HTC One X] Goku80:
try rebooting the handset first. if that does not work maybe factory reset might help. :)
[HTC One X] ancola66:
I think it's for the battery consumption monitor
[HTC One X] PsiAdster:
This is one of the main reasons that I sent my phone back. That really got on my nerves. The other reason was that I had the yellow tint across the bottom of my screen.

Can a bunch of people do me a small favour and confirm that theirs definitely

DOES NOT

do the dodgy power button thing? The reason I ask is because I plan on going to Carphone Warehouse and picking up a new one. If pretty much everyone is having this problem, I'm not going to bother. It is a small thing to pick at, but considering I'm paying £500 for it, screw getting a dodgy one.
[HTC One X] DazNoonan:
I did have this problem on my first device but on that it only happened twice. On my current replacement device I've not experienced this problem at all and I have been on and off the phone many times since around 14:30 today.
[HTC One X] PsiAdster:
Awesome, cheers. Give us an update if it does happen.

Anyone else? Someone who has had it since launch day, maybe?
[HTC One X] Goku80:
well so far so good....might send it back as well again if it happens. but to be honest maybe it might get sorted with a feature update. this is my second handset and this one seems a bit better than the first one.

but anyway no issues with this handset and everything else seems fine to me.
[HTC One X] DazNoonan:
Agree with this... I think it will get sorted in an update too; I mean it has too doesn't it really. HTC will no doubt be aware of it so should have no excuses really.

My second handset so far seems to be more stable than the first, but it's still very early into the use of it so can't say for sure. I do have my fingers (and toes) crossed though as I simply love the look and feel of the handset and I am really enjoying ICS with Sense.
[HTC One X] Entreri:
I just got my One X and have the jumping screen issue, too :(.

It doesn't "feel" like a hardware issue, though but then again, it's really strange that some people do NOT have this.

Didn't really read this whole thread, but were some people able to fix this by using a custom rom? I'm not really eager to send the phone back and wait for a replacement, as this is the only issue I've got so far (along with the statusbar glitch, which is related I think).
[HTC One X] Goku80:
to be honest this is my first HTC. i did had the sensation for a few days but send it back for the s2 which i loved to bits and actually was sad when i had to sell it for this baby.

now as going with the first unit i had what kinda bugged me was the rattling noise when shaking the phone. apparently from reading in the threads nearly everyone has it...but anywhoo i did send it back and they replaced it for me. still this replacement the rattling is there but not as much and barely can hear it. but it is not like i am going to shake it hard anyway... second thing i noticed is that the power button seems like there is a tiny gap on the right hand side of it...not a big issue either but i am kinda picky...like i said it is only visible when checking the phone from above...that can be fixed with a case which 99% of the time i will have one on it..

but to send my new baby back..hell no. this phone will have value for the next few months if not longer and i am very happy. and staying stock till s-off gets released :D

just to add regarding the rattling noise it is nothing to be worried about and since reading most people if not all people have it that is good enough for me..and a case is only going to make the phone feel even more solid than it is already
[HTC One X] PsiAdster:
IF it's a software bug.. Yeah. This is one of the reasons why I'm asking if people have had flawless power buttons since launch. I did notice that it didn't turn the screen off when unlocking the phone, but I did notice that sometimes the soft button's LEDs would flash twice instead.

I dunno.. It just really bugs me. The phone was fantastic, though.

I'm also hoping the overheating problem (that I also had) isn't that bad a problem. I did notice that Glowball slowed down a noticeable amount when it was running at 53C.
[HTC One X] spridell:
I am glad I am not the only one.

Hope its just software and an update will fix.
[HTC One X] PsiAdster:
I'm not liking the fact that no one has chimed in confirming that theirs doesn't have this issue. :(
[HTC One X] Foggy79:
Mine does it to from time to time.
[HTC One X] Goku80:
i am sending this one back now..spoken to my network provider and agreed that there is a fault with the phone so i am going now on my third replacement and this time i am going for the grey version.. fingers crossed this time
[HTC One X] DazNoonan:
I have a feeling that if you are trying to avoid the screen coming on bug then you will be going few a fair amount of phones... Most people I have spoken to have seen this from time to time on their OneX; which would mean its 99.9% likely to be a software issue rather than a hardware issue.

It's up to you but if this is the main reason you are changing again then personally I would just wait it out for the update. Especially since you are now going for a Grey one, when I'm sure its the white you no doubt really want?
[HTC One X] MindlessLeadership:
I've decided to return and get a replacement from Amazon.

My battery barely last 5 hours, even on the lowest brightness.

My phone randomly turned off every hour.

My SIM-card tray was deformed. It wasn't noticeable from far away, but it looked weird not that one side was squashed.

The screen flickered and was hard to read.

If the replacement isn't good, I'll want a full refund.
[HTC One X] Arthur Hucksake:
Agreed. I've had it a few times, but i'm sure it's software myself. I had a Sensation rom in the past which did the same thing now and then.
[HTC One X] zerozoneice:
i also saw this issue but to be honest maybe once every 20-30 or so locks...couldn't care less, there's more important stuff to worry about...

my battery life is also good (1.26), 1d20hrs (almost 2 days) on a full charge with 3h display time and 1,5h talk time....
[HTC One X] Goku80:
To be honest with you mate now after having the white one and checking out the grey one the grey one for me looks better...and not just because of the screen coming on bug just a few other tiny little things that came with the white one that annoyed me..first of all the power button for some reason became loose. second while i was in a call, i tried to get the keyboard up to press a number and i could not. the screen stayed blank and i could not dial the number i wanted:eek::(

rattle you can barely hear it so that was not an issue...and plus i wanted to try the grey one anyway after checking it out and seeing how sexy it looks..overall i want to have a phone with no issues...at least hardware wise that is. i know i am fussy and picky but come on guys we talking about a beast of a phone and an expensive one as it is....anyways will post shots of the replacement once i get it on monday
[HTC One X] b-george:
I found an intressting thing

Got my phone replaced yesterday because of the screen was jumping it was the reason I DOA it, but I had other bugs to like the statusbar glitches.

Well my new phone that I got yesterday doesn't have the jumping problem, but the glitches is still there.

I let the battery drop down to 0 and the device powerd off, waited 10 minutes to ensure it was dead and I couldn't power it on.

coneccted to charger after a minute I powred it on, now I have played with my device while it charges for an hour and most of the bugs are gone. The screen glitches that I hade and could produce are gone to.

so test it guyz....

edit: forget it, the glitches are back after some hour.
[HTC One X] BarryH_GEG:
In spite of the negative comments I ordered one yesterday; it'll be here tomorrow. Here's my thinking:

- A lot of the issues can be addressed by s/w. HTC has more riding on this phone then any that preceded it so I'm banking on them doing whatever it takes to get it right.

- Some of the random h/w stuff is pretty typical of early runs of a device. I'll be as annoyed as everyone else if I have issues but from reading through the various threads it doesn't sound like an epidemic. You spin the wheel and take your chances.

- The performance variances (battery, UI, graphics) between devices have me the most concerned as it's very similar to what's happening with the Transformer Prime. There are excellent specimens and dogs for no apparent reason. There's some speculation that it has to do with Teg3 and either fabrication or QC issues. The One S doesn't seem to be having the same issues and the biggest difference between it at the One X is the SoC. If mine turns out to be a dog I'll just return it and wait for the SGS3. HTC/Nvidia have one shot as I'm not going to swap multiple devices in an attempt to find the Holy Grail.

So, at least for me, a properly working One X is a great next-gen phone. I'm moving from an i9100 and wanted a bigger HD display, ICS, a faster SoC, NFC, and something thin and light (as best is possible for a giant phone). I've also liked Sense from the old WinMo days. I actually wanted an Eluga Power because I'd prefer the S4 over Teg3 but its not quad band HSPA. I got tired of waiting for Samsung to get ICS right on the SGS2 and I got the OneX knowing that the SGS3 will probably be faster/fastest. But I truly think we've reached the point of excess when it comes to anything but benchmark bragging rights when it comes to performance anyway. I also don't want to wait for the SGS3 to become available and then have to kill myself scouring the world trying to get one during the inevitable early adopter frenzy that'll ensue. Samsung makes great devices but HTC has its entire future riding on the One series so I think it's a good investment.

So I guess I'll find out tomorrow whether I'll be a permanent member of the forum. Wish me luck. ;)

[HTC One X] animaleyes76:
i def don't have this.
[HTC One X] Goku80:
what you said is spot on...i was waiting for the s3 but decided to go with the one x...you have made a good choice mate and only good things will come even from the development side in due time
[HTC One X] zerozoneice:
Browsing now the forums on my ipad 1 and sadly realise that this old device still rotates the view faster and smoother than all android devices to date, incl. one x (and S which is slightly smoother).....

How sad is that? :)
[HTC One X] hamdir:
yes I don't care about all other issues since u can test for defect in few minutes, but the most worrying is something ominous from NV like damaged DOCs making their way out of factory, this will be a problem beyond fixing later, I bought one grey a weak ago and sold it, I used or for hours it was running amazingly like everything the reviews said, amazing device

the next day I bought a white one n sold it, I tried it quick and delivered to its owner, but now he saying it lags and I remember maybe there was some screen flicker

I'm getting my grey on sat, let's hope the tegra issues r just broken software like mike1986 otherwise HTC have a disaster cooking, Nv would simply deny n won't admit until much later

semiaccurate mentioned extremely bad yields in the t3.0 early days, now we r on a revision, this is supposed to b sorted

now I regret not keeping the grey
[HTC One X] petronelduca:
Thank you for your advice, but it didn't work.

If anybody has another ideeas, please do not hesitate.

Thanks
[HTC One X] bimmerboii:
I experienced issues with the camera. After taking a photo, it instantly gets corrupted and cant be viewed. Its just black with a triangle in the middle.

My cam is on auto and using 4:3 standard photo size. Tried taking close up pics of beautiful sakura flowers on a bright sunny day. It gets corrupted every time. But if i turn and shoot something random it gets the shot perfectly.

Read on another thread at least one member experienced the same black photo with a triangle corruption.
[HTC One X] ArmedandDangerous:
This might not be a bug or anything, but has anyone noticed icons in folders going missing?

For example, Folder A has Game 1, 2, 3 and 4. I set my phone to Disk Storage (USB), then set it back to Charge Only. Sometimes icons in some folders just disappear. They get replaced by the Android logo, and with no name to what that app is. The app STILL WORKS if you click on it, but the icon and name is just gone. You have to remove the app from the folder and put it back in from the app drawer to fix it.

EDIT 1 : I also encountered a new bug just right now. When I was transferring files through USB, I noticed that certain notifications that appear at the bottom of the screen like "Message has been sent", and the whole of the notification bar had a graphical glitch. It looked like digital noise stretching them out then it fixes itself.
[HTC One X] stjs:
Got mine yesterday..everything was perfect then today I can't pull down my status bar to get to the notification shade. Tried a factory reset and still not working.
[HTC One X] wcypierre:
same, I had this issue as well but it only happened once apparently(all of the bugs at my phone happened once for some reason)
[HTC One X] tabobaby:
I experience the above 2 issue as well

and most of the peoples from a forum in Hong Kong are facing the camera issue as well
[HTC One X] pete_n:
Yes, I've noticed that repeatedly, albeit just on one program so far (London Underground Free by Visual IT Limited).
[HTC One X] marc2283:
No battery drain or charge!

Ok so i have had a quick look through the forums but found nothing on this new problem... My phone is not charging when plugged in. It just stays at 48%, intrestingley enough it doesnt drain either! All last night and today is still stuck on 48%! Anyone had this issue yet?
[HTC One X] petronelduca:
It did happen to me a few times in 3 days since I have the phone. and other than that, I still have one notice about "call forwarding" in the notif. bar, and I can't get rid of it. Anybody?
