[HTC One X] hamade:
I am a dropper by nature, I know and acknowledge this fact, thats why I tried to get a good case and a screen protector from the first day that I got my OneX, unfortunately I couldn't find any accessories for it in the local marker, so I ordered a couple of cases from ebay, and prayed I will not drop my phone till the cases reach !

I've received the first case after around a week, but during that time I've dropped the phone at least 4 times, always on a solid floor and from around 1 meter height, and I can honestly say I am really impressed with the quality of the packing, there is not even one visible scratch on the phone or the screen.

Reading the previous posts, dropping the phone didn't magically improve the battery life preformance, or maybe it did but dropping back the phone again negated that magic :)
[HTC One X] forumhookersdotcom:
Clicking sound comes by default. Many of them confirmed that.
[HTC One X] GriffinSauce:
Woah, maybe a case with a string on it ;)
[HTC One X] gyako:
Dropped mine in a club. Not even a scratch that I can find. It landed with the screen facing down!
[HTC One X] kujoswrath:
Dropped mine from my desk today. No damage. Good times! :)
[HTC One X] ~Immo~:
Fell off my lap when getting out of the car -.-

Bottom two corners both scuffed (which i just filed to get smooth again lol) and has a little dink in the screen :(

I expected worse as it bounced a few times and landed face down
[HTC One X] matmar:
Dropped from 80 cm, on the side and finally face down.

Scratches (10 approx) and screen broken at 3 places ( left and right mille and top)

.quite desapointed...
[HTC One X] Nitin985:
Got a scratch on my phone. So annoyed. One of those that you can feel. Anyone know how to like fill it in. It happened after I touched the phone with my nail
[HTC One X] D0GuKaN:
My girlfriend dropped my One X last week. But there is no damage (Thank god). :)
[HTC One X] thegregulator:
My One X slid from the center console of my work truck to the floor, which is about 6 inches. There's a nice scratch on the glass over the camera lens. It doesn't affect my pictures, but is pretty f***ing annoying. Whoever designed the protruding glass design should be shot. To make matters worse, I ordered a ballistic case this morning before the phone fell and even paid extra to have it overnighted. Damnit..
[HTC One X] Ken_ZomgWtfBbq:
I have had my One X for about 3 weeks now, and the first week had it I dropped it between my couch/sofa bed.

It must have hit something inside, when I got it out from under the couch there was a big scratch on the glass camera lens.

Called up Vodafone (AUS) and told them that the phone came like that (lol) and they sent me a new one.

So right now I have the shiny new HTC One X in the box, but am still using the old one for now.

Since then I have dropped it about 4, 5 times? I guess I am now more careless as I have to send it back anyway (not saying I drop it on purpose).

Each time a pretty high fall, onto bathroom tiling, grass, cement (!) and no scratches. :confused:

PS. First post! :D
[HTC One X] RossMacgill:
ok, mine fell out of my pocket today, had a bad chunk out of 1 corner and a small chunk out of the other corner, but lucky, my 28 days was today, so took it into car phone warehouse, and told them about the screen flicker (it had but was very minor), and they replaced it, and didn't even look at the corners :) think its time for a case
[HTC One X] Nitin985:
Did they check for the screen flicker
[HTC One X] Nino.:
Dropped my one x about a week after getting it outside McDonalds when I was drunk! It slipped out of my hand from about chest hight onto concrete. it had a chunk out of the top left corner a scratch on the top right corner and a scuff on the bottom left corner also a few little scratches around the camera lens.

The screen was fine but about 3 weeks later the screen was playing up with these problems that another user has youtube.com/watch?v=3IXfJF-7izc[/url]

sent it back to htc still waiting to here back from them, hoping for a new one =)
[HTC One X] vickytom:
My son didn't so much drop his; rather he did what all 20 year olds do. Went out, drank a lot, went to bed and woke up with his prize One X in the tumbler of water strategically placed by his bed, that he was supposed to drink, following all the beer.

After a funeral yesterday, I had to call and see him, to offer my second condolences of the day to him and to his poor phone. It is twice the weight of mine and the poor boy is truly gutted!

The upside is, it was a flickering screen model, which was going back anyway and, following a laptop theft, he took his old mother's advice and took out insurance. Didn't really lessen the pain though! :rolleyes:
[HTC One X] ste1164:
They didn't when I returned my first one x.
[HTC One X] milomak:
Didn't see this thread

Fell from the table and the screen is cracked.
[HTC One X] RossMacgill:
yeah they did
[HTC One X] skyn8t:
Depressed

Phone slipped from my hand and i was about to catch it but only succeeded in throwing it up and fell from about 5 feet on the pavement. Got a few scruff marks on the botton and chipped off a bit on the top edge. Any body have any ideas how to "smooth off" this chip marks. Absolutely gutted. :( Phone is amazing especially after the 1.29 update.
[HTC One X] adamgaltress:
Yesterday while at work I was using the rid one mower to give the grass a trim. I was listening to the radio on my One X an the phone was in my pocket. As I accelerated away the phone slid out of my pocket and fell to the tarmac ground and dragged for a meter or so by the long headphone cables. The phone fell quite far and the only visible damage is a slight scratch on the metal ring around the lens and a small scratch/dent in the top left corner and an even smaller on on the bottom left corner. I have to say I am impressed that more damaged wasn't sustained, but I will continue to cry for my loss forever and ever ):
[HTC One X] mickfitz:
Just got my first glass scratch and its at least an inch long. I can feel it as I glide my finger across the smooth screen.

Oh well. Had to happen sooner or later.
[HTC One X] ossy1337:
Yesterday first day drunk since owning One X.. I managed to not use it as a bottle opener.. I'm very proud :D
[HTC One X] MatDiggy:
I'm in Thailand right now, and was jumping aboard a boat to go snorkeling. The pier was high as he'll so it was a big step down to the small boat. I had the phone in my front pocket, and i just had this feeling that **** would go bad.. If course it did. When I literally swung myself on the boat, the phone jumped out of my pocket, and slammed into the deck, just inches from falling into the water (phew). Laying with the screen facing down, I thought of the worse.. I picked it up and just threw it in my bag quickly. After a quick look i couldn't see any types of marks, scratches, dents or nothing! When I got back to my hotel I took a closer look but nothing!

That's what I call a quality build (or just pure luck..) ;)

[HTC One X] chrisjcks:
Dropped mine in the worst place...

The screen landed face-down on a UK 3-pin plug, (damn amazon kindle adapter Greer LOL)

Glad I had my screen protector on, although it has the slightest of dents in the protector, most of it vanished within 24hrs but there is still a pin-prick size dent on my protector

Nobody else can notice it, but I CAN

..... No biggy, it's better than a smashed screen.
[HTC One X] ~Immo~:
I used a acrylic nail file....... it took away the rough edges ^_^
[HTC One X] skyn8t:
thanx Immo. took your idea one step further and used a o number sand paper. got rid of most of the scruff marks and smoothed off the chip. looks much better now. just lost a touch of the shine but you cant really tell

Edit : guys dont try this at all. It looks good for the first day but then it just starts showing a light grey. kinda looks like the white is peeling off. (Oh what have i done :( )
[HTC One X] death__machine:
Just dropped my HOX for the first time, there's this scratch in the top left corner. Its damn light and have to look closely to find it. Luckily no scratches on the screen or camera lens.

I really need a pouch for this, there aren't any available here in the UAE.
[HTC One X] beasty54:
I knocked mine about 2 feet from my laptop stand and unfortunately it hit the bottom of the glass stand and shattered the screen completely. I couldn't believe it had done so much damage, especially after dropping my iphone 4s from twice as high onto a concrete floor without breaking the glass :(
[HTC One X] MatDiggy:
Damn, reading all these posts make me feel like luck was on my side that day..

[HTC One X] iLevi:
I dropped it from about 1 meter onto the sidewalk, screen is COMPLETELY shattered... Phone still works, but the glass is completely destroyed. I can feel it when I use the phone... I'm completely broke, so not sure what my next step will be :(
[HTC One X] ste1164:
Sell it has broken and get a phone which you can use in the meantime until you save up enough money? Saves you using a phone that will fall to pieces when you use it. Sounds dangerous enough as it is.
[HTC One X] alson041:
The same thing happened to me. Don't know what to do. The phone is two weeks old. I am shocked, because it shattered so quickly.

I called HTC and they said I should have it repaired, but of course pay for it. As I bought it off contract, I have already spent a lot on it.

Anyone willing to share the price of getting the screen repaired? The LCD still works and it's still touch responsive so I believe it's only the front glass that's broken. Of course it all comes down to how fair the repairer will be.

Oh and to make things worse, I was suffering from yellow spots on the screen, called HTC and they told me to send it back and get it replaced. As I needed the phone, I decided to send it back next week. Now I have it shattered, and have to pay for possibly everything that's been wrong with it since I bought it. Yay me.
[HTC One X] antipesto93:
i saw this on ebay today

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/HTC-ONE-X...459?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item2570a4e043

note that any repair will void the warranty as you have to break a seal inside the phone to get to the screen
[HTC One X] HaTeC:
After reading this thread and realizing how poor the build quality is i am not letting anyone "try" my phone anymore.

Jesus Christ HTC...

Last HTC phone for me.
[HTC One X] alson041:
Thanks for the link, I just don't feel like sending such an expensive phone so far away :)

Will I loose the warranty even if I send it to the "official" HTC repair center?
[HTC One X] DomCowell:
Saw someone strolling down the high street the other day with a new 4S, dropped it from pocket level.

Completely smashed.
[HTC One X] phil112345:
mine, same as - working but shattered, was £145 incl. handling and repair costs.

you can buy a screen off ebay but i read the screen and glass are attached. like the iphone. and a new screen and glass on ebay costs £130 I think. they also replaced my battery for some reason, don't know if the repair damages the battery?
[HTC One X] alson041:
Thanks for the info! I hope to get a fair price.

It is possible that the battery was damaged before, you just didn't notice it. Then when you sent it to reparation, they found that out and repaired it at your cost. Just a guess and a thing that I am afraid of, because my battery is suspicious to me. For example when I watch a youtube video, it drains the battery even if I have the phone plugged in the wall charger. Weird.
[HTC One X] Chicken Nugget(s):
I can imagine how bad they feel if they only just walked out of the shop with that :o
[HTC One X] harlz:
Dropped mine from head height since I was taking a photo and it slipped. I have a case on it too. No damage at all. Not much noise either. It hit concrete.

My heart stopped for that brief moment though. Lol
[HTC One X] alson041:
What case do you have?

I need to start looking for some serious protection, don't want my screen to break ever again.
[HTC One X] 131313:
Dropped it from about 40 cm height while opening the car door from inside. Fell on gravel, face down.

Yepp, screen smashed. Still works though but the tip of my bamboo stylus got cut in pieces before I put a screenprotector on.
[HTC One X] Dave Trouser:
Any UK owners with a broken screen

Just found these guys in London: http://www.spsmobile.co.uk/repair-mobile.php

Will replace the HTC One X glass for £59.99 while you wait. They are just a short distance from J1 of the M1, at NW2 7HD.

They can do it via post too if you're too far away.

Hope that helps :-D

Edit:

Just a note about placing the order online - if you select glass replacement, the order will show "Not Powering", however in speaking to them on the phone, I was told the price is correct - just the fault code is wrong. If you are posting the phone, include a description of the fault and a printout of your order and all will be well. Taking mine there now as it's not too far, especially for £60!
[HTC One X] antipesto93:
you can walk into the shop and get it done while you wait

official htc repair will be fine as they replace the seal afterwards.
[HTC One X] Reckless187:
I just dropped my phone a few minutes ago, it was peeping out from the top of my trouser pocket, in a pouch and it fell out and rolled over a few times and the top exposed bits took a bit of a scraping on the concrete paving.
[HTC One X] danton11:
After reading all these stories I'll be extra careful now.

I half expected the phone would just float down its so light ;)
[HTC One X] audioslim:
Dropped mine a few times still all ok. However o did drop mine into water once. It freaked for a few hours but is fine now with no visible defects. Still my warranty is no more no doubt.
[HTC One X] omnianick:
dropped mine from about 6ft. Onto tiled floor. Had scratches on all four corners.well annoyed. luckily the screen or back were ok. But I sanded the scratches away with 800 grit emery paper then 1200, then used some g10 cutting compound to smooth it out, then buffed it by hand and you would never know it had any scratches. Should have taken some pics but I was so pissed I could think.

It doesn't take much sanding.

Hopes this helps someone.

[HTC One X] Mischaseb:
If you do nothing your phone will likely die at some stage ( could be a few days, could be a few months ) from internal corrosion. you should open it up and disassemble it ASAP and dry it out properly in rice, and clean off any corrosion with rubbing alcohol and a cotton tip. I opened mine up today and its really not very hard.
[HTC One X] Mixxxy:
While inebriated I dropped it a few times from probably waist height. Got a few scuff marks but nothing major. I also dropped it from maybe chest height as my phone slipped out of my pocket when I was exiting a truck. Hit the road and luckily struck the plastic case I have on it. No physical damage that I can see, seems to hold up pretty well.
[HTC One X] Laurentius26:
I dropped mine while I was hanging in the air on a parachute jump.

[HTC One X] stezo2k:

[HTC One X] PaulWilks:
Dropped mine from about 3 feet onto concrete but luckily the case took the damage. Tiny scratches on the shoulders so not too bad and more than justifies the £4 I spent on the case.

[HTC One X] himatech:
Mine fell from a height of 20cm and the screen got broken from the corner :-(
[HTC One X] Barff1984:
I dropped mine onto concrete from a third story window...yeah...a real height...a manly height...Not one of those girly heights (anything less than 10 meters). My phone was fine, I made a thread about it (the ultimate drop test).

if it's a height I can jump from,I don't want to hear about .....our phones are built with ruggedness in mind

:)
[HTC One X] mitas35:
I cant understant this 20 cm :(

some people throw it from very high and nothing hoppents

the chinese guy even use it for a hammer :D

whats relly happening guys???????????:eek:
[HTC One X] Mischaseb:
is it really that hard to imagine that the phone will react differently depending on how its oriented when it hits the ground? It seems like the phone is generally pretty rugged, but there's always the chance that you'll be unlucky and it will hit just the right spot so that it breaks.
[HTC One X] mitas35:
i guess you are right man thanks:confused:
[HTC One X] kish3n:
My hox slipped from the bathroom stand and fell in a bath. Pulled it.out the water asap and it lives onto tell the tale. In fact the screen looks cleaner haha! Lucky escape
[HTC One X] Huey85:
2 occurrences so far..

1- walking home from work at night, my earphones plugged in and hybrid TPU/hardcase on.. my earphones cord got caught onto a button of my trenchcoat and my phone dropped onto the concrete walkway.. bounced a good 5-7 times.. picked it up and dusted it off; no damage anywhere to be seen, even on the case (only a few minor scratches on the case but nothing major).

2- in the bathroom from about 10cm no case on - just finished applying the screen protector after having a shower (so the steam could lift up all the dust particles). no scratches or dents or cracks.

this phone is quite sturdy and only cosmetic damage so far is a few hairline scratches on the back which are only noticeable if you look at the back very closely and are actually trying to look for them.
[HTC One X] dlau77:
was listening to music before meeting up with some friends, went to pause the music, fell out of my hand onto the pavement and this has now happened...

http://i1107.photobucket.com/albums/h400/danxlau/IMG_5982.jpg

the most annoying this is, this is my 2nd HOX after my first one melted internally and the haptics on it are very loud, the bottom left of the screen is a bit loose and there was dust under the screen. I've been in 2 minds about sending it back to Vodafone to get replaced... and now this has happened.

Does anyone know how much this would cost to get fixed in the UK?
[HTC One X] audioslim:
Same with me. Mine freaked for about 4 hours (turning on and off), drained its full battery etc.

After a few hours any signs of water behind screen were gone and it's been quite happy for a month or so since.

Warranty all gone though unfortunatley as HTC will just laugh at it if you/me sent it back. Still if worse comes to the worse thats what the house insurance is for!

[HTC One X] Mischaseb:
Your phone will die eventually if you dont fully dismantle it and dry it out (as in phone apart, and all magnetic shields from the chips removed etc)
[HTC One X] kish3n:
think it would die faster if i took it apart lol!!!
[HTC One X] Raz0rX:
Dropped from 1m.

The Frontside has survived but the backside not so well. :(

My Camera lense is Slivered. But on Photos in daylight is all perfekt.

[HTC One X] mrt159:
Put mine on overnight charge before going to sleep. A coworker phoned me in the morning and without even thinking I grabbed the phone from the nightstand. Of course it slipped my hand when the attached charging cable stopped the phone and it fell at a height of about 60-70cm and slipped on the wooden floor. Luckily no damage.

I was doing some housework in the attic while I had the phone in my pocket. I suddenly felt a vibration and heard the boot-up sound. Since I had pretty tight pants on and I was crouching the power button must have been pushed down so the phone restarted. I grabbed it with one had while my other hand had a glove on that was covered with Makroflex PU foam. Of course the phone slipped and I grabbed it with my other hand so the screen and backside was covered with that sticky horror. Luckily I had a silicone case on that is now ruined and I reacted pretty fast so I could get all the stuff off the slippery screen. No long term damage done. Phew.
[HTC One X] fatal exception:
I left mine on the bed before i went to sleep and my wife threw back the cover in the morning and my HOX shot across the room, it hit the wall first and then the floor......HARD!

It was in a FIT BAG which seemed to help because i could not find any noticable damage.....

It seems pretty rugged but when i press the frame on the bottom left side the screen makes a slight squeeking sound, but that was before the it flew through the bedroom.
[HTC One X] amyhs99:
Dropped my 3 weeks old HOX around waist height while exiting my car yesterday. Bounced several times on the road. :crying:

It left a scuff mark on top left corner and a minor scratch on silver ring around the camera lens. Still consider a perfect device despite of those damages and i might as well just live with it. Have the urge to replace the housing at the moment I dropped it though.

Any way to get rid of the scuff mark? Felt sad every time I stared at it...

P/S: Sorry for poor English.
[HTC One X] thefinestmalt:
My very first post on here and thought I would share my traumatic experience. Took my shiny new phone out to read an sms and it went flying out of my hand like a bar of soap in the bath, dropping to the concrete with that gut wrenching clatter that anyone who has ever dropped their pride and joy will recognise, the sound that is still waking me up in a cold sweat a week later. Anyway, enough of the melodramatics....when I gingerly picked it up from the pavement imagine my utter horror when faced with this....

Was expecting a couple of scratches and dents maybe but not that. I nearly puked. Must have hit the deck in just the wrong place, it looks like its been thrown against the wall then repeatedly stamped on by a gorrilla. (Sob,Sob)
