They said in press the p version will start shipping end of the month when the d starts selling in China. If there's one thing I like about huawei is that they tell people what's happening unlike zte. This is actually a factory delay with the d version, something about their quad core chip taking too long.

On Amazon you'd have to pay a Chinese seller to ship the phone to you, and that would cost extra. My advice,be patient and wait till June you'll get it at home.

According to you by which means it will be available in India online or rebranded

As I experienced the debrading companies like spice or orange don't rebrand the high end smart phones ( spice mi 410 is an exception as it was good to go before 1 year )

I think have to wait ;)

Or search in amazon.

Do u have any experience about Chinese android shipping? :thumbup:
[General Questions and Answers] Allanitomwesh:
I buy from ipmart.com cause they ship to my country, but Amazon is very reliable too,less scammers than eBay I think, just check a sellers history,if he's only been selling accessories like cases and chargers don't buy an entire phone.

[HTC One X] kungfudavie:
Hi Guys,

First post post and its a sad one.

Word of warning to some of you guys with the one x.

I had some major screen issues when i first got my device (preordered) and i spoke to htc about the issues i was having flickering, green lines, touch issues and all the heat that the phone was generating.

I was in the cinema the other night and was texting during the copious and irrelevant adverts that accompany any film and i turned to speak to my friend and when i pressed the unlock button i discovered my screen had shattered.

I dont know wether this was a one off manufacturing error or wether it was related to the issues i was having before but a word of warning as i dont want it happening to someone else as it has taken me a while to get a new phone issued. Mine will be going to HTC for investigation no doubt. Thankfully my retailer was reasonable in the end, and when they found out i had already reported a screen fault to HTC the imediately offered a swap out.

Its not a shatter from any particular point, it just seemed to shatter from the middle out.

Before anyone comments saying you must have pressed too hard, i use my fingers for pointing and touching and dont yell "by the power of greyskull" before using my phone.

So if you are still having banding, or non responsive screen issues of anykind be careful. I hope this is a one off, but if it hapens to someone else at least you know your not the only one.
[HTC One X] n1kon:
Pressure from the pocket maybe. Ive worked in the mobile industry for 8 years and have never known a screen to pop so to speak. Very strange. Could be an assembly issue with the glass slightly over sized but would still need a knock to set it off.
[HTC One X] mox123:
maybe he dropped it and wants to believe he didn't
[HTC One X] craigiefaehk:
another cracked screen

My screen cracked when I performed a rather bad magic trick by putting my phone in my front pocket and when I took it out the screen was cracked. To say I was disappointed would be a bit of a understatement.

On contacting HTC they now say that as I unlocked the boot loader not only do I have to pay for a new screen ( I would argue any phone that cant be put in a pocket of your trousers with out cracking is not fit for purpose ) but worse as I had unlocked the bootloader that I would have to pay for a new mother board as well.

I would understand having to pay for a new screen but having to pay for a new motherboard and screen does not sit well with me. If they had said that I would have pay for the screen and done nothing else on the phone and that I would have had no warranty I would have been ok with that
[HTC One X] kungfudavie:
mox: thankyou for implying im deluded, i will take your kind words onboard

I didnt actually put my phone back in my pocket, i have never dropped it and had a full case on it from the word go. I cant see how or why this would happen and would hope its a one off an the build quality seems good and after the updates the phone works really well.

Im hoping this was a one in a million situation that wont occur for anyone else, but i thought just in case, HTC couldnt deny it had happened before.
[HTC One X] BearGryllsOwnsU:
Was the phone extremely hot or anything? Seems strange it would just shatter sitting in your pocket?
[HTC One X] kungfudavie:
It wasnt in my pocket, i sent a text, talked to my friend and when i looked back the screen was cracked, i hadnt put it down, put it in m pocket or moved it in the slightest.

That's the thing tho, it was in his hand not even his pocket!! It's like spontaneous human combustion but on a phone screen
[HTC One X] surfer1000:
So I'm not the only one then who takes my air pistol into cinemas to shoot at the phones that annoy the hell out of me when they should be TURNED OFF!

I've tried doing the same when im flying to people who never listen when the pilot tells you to refrain from using electronic devices, I just can't get it through customs! ;)
[HTC One X] jonathanyong:
It's much more likely that you applied too much pressure on the screen by accidentally pressing it against the arm rest or something else nearby while you were distracted.

Ockham's razor, the glass isn't under any load stress so it's impossible for it to suddenly fracture. And if it did, you would have heard a loud cracking noise. Pressure must have been applied. Either that or you dropped it and now you're trolling. Sorry, but I really find it difficult to believe in spontaneous shattering of a phone's screen...
[HTC One X] kungfudavie:
Im not trolling, just saying what happened. Thats all. Im not trying to get you guys to believe or disbelive me. Thats what happened to me. Im hoping to get something back from htc when they get it back
[HTC One X] nicholaschum:
Gorilla Glass looking good, hahahaha :P

If it took a lot of pressure to shatter a demo glass of Gorilla Glass on a board, then either you put way too much pressure, or way too much heat damaged the glass causing it to shatter.

[HTC One X] farnsbarns:
I'm sure there's a lot of people who won't believe this story. They key, however, to communicating online is this. Apply these simple rules before you post and you'll be doing very well.

1) does what I'm about to say need to be said (does it benefit anyone)?

2) does it need to be said right now?

3) does is need to be said by me?

If the answer to any of these is "no" then probably best not to say it at all.

If someone says something you don't believe to be true but it is not hurting anyone I would generally suggest letting it go. just my twopen'th.
[HTC One X] festa20:
I scratched the shot out of my phone other day

My question is does the one x have a screen protector on it
[HTC One X] nicholaschum:
It doesn't really matter if the screen has a screen protector on it or not. If someone took a baseball bat and smashed your screen, with or with no screen protector, it will still shatter.
[HTC One X] festa20:
Yea but am saying i scratched my one x and want to know if it has one on so o can take it off

U get me now
[HTC One X] mrt159:
There is no screen protector pre-installed as far as I can tell from looking at my device.
[HTC One X] tkolev:
There is a screen protector on if you had put it on. Asking is if your phone has screen protector is... strange.
[HTC One X] nicholaschum:
If you meant you scratched your screen without knowing for a fact you placed a screen protector on it yourself AFTER taking off the "I'm the ONE you've been waiting for" sticker, then no, you don't have a screen protector.

Easiest way to check is to get a piece of tape, tape it on the screen and peel.
[HTC One X] festa20:
Yea most phones have it on and didn't know if there was one on it like other phones cheers
[HTC One X] AJerman:
Never heard of a single phone coming with a screen protector preinstalled. :confused:
[HTC One X] Johnny0906:
Maybe it was a combination of hot and cold, that it was perhaps very hot recently and chilled down fast and a small squeeze and that's all folks.

Possible scenario?
[HTC One X] festa20:
Sony devices come preinstalled and a few other devices do thats all I was wanting to know bout one x
[HTC One X] PhoenixFx:
Like most others in this thread, I too find this very hard to believe, and think you accidentally applied lot of pressure while distracted talking with your friend. But anything is possible I guess.

I also don’t think HTC will replace it for free regardless you having reported a different display issue earlier, UNLESS HTC knows of a potential defect which can cause this type of damage or they have already received many such complaints. Because for everyone else, this seems like damage caused by mishandling the phone. However let us know how it goes. If HTC replaces without asking too many questions then there could be a potential issue with the design.

This phone is relatively new, and has a somewhat different screen (with a curved edge) than most other phones out there. Therefore we don’t know what kind of issues are there yet. Who knows, OP could be the first one to stumble upon something which could later turn out to be a common problem.
[HTC One X] zvieratko:
It's not impossible for HOX to have a defect like this, a hairline crack and the tension in the display are all that's needed to crack by itself...

I had a friend whose MDA cracked a screen like this years ago - turns out there was some sort of tape around the display, and it was thicker at one point, thus stressing the display constantly. He just woke up one morning and the display was cracked just like this, and the biggest crack originated where the tape/glue was concentrated.

And it was a warranty repair.
[HTC One X] sam.verdon:
you can repaire yourself. I've found just on reseller of HOX's screen.

[HTC One X] backfromthestorm:
The batteries expand before they vent, so it could of put some pressure on the inside if the battery was faulty. Or lent on an arm rest. Occams razor indeed.
[HTC One X] jonshipman:
Xperia Play had one pre-installed.
[HTC One X] mrt159:
And also the Xperia S if I'm not mistaken. But Xperia series don't have Gorilla glass.
[HTC One X] rawfa:
This sounds odd as heck. The screen would have had to be in tremendous pressure for it to crack by it self. Heat variation would also have had to be very big.

You most likely put it in your pocket with the screen turned outwards and pressed it against the arm rest.

I always put my phone on my pocket with the screen facing my thigh.
[HTC One X] BenPope:
I have no idea what you are responding to, but my phones have always been in my pocket screen-to-thigh, and share it with cigs and lighter (on the outside) at most.
[HTC One X] MunkusDK:
Do you know if it is possible to ONLY replace the glass. I have seen on ebay that you can buy only the screen for 40-50$, but cant seem to find any guides or videos on how to do it. Every repair shop I have talked to, says both screen and glass HAVE to be replaced ($$$)...?
[HTC One X] MunkusDK:
Just found this video so guess that answers my own question :)

[HTC One X] iHH-Dave:
Hey guys,

The same thing happened to me the other day, except, I dropped my HTX One X on the bus, it landed face down and now, the digitiser has shattered, although, it still works perfectly :s

The phone was supposed to be going back to Three UK for repair tomorrow anyway.

Might just send it back to Three UK and see what they say.
[HTC One X] nitestick:
I saw this thread ages ago and at that time sympathised with you OP, now I quite sadly say that I feel your pain too as more or less the same thing just happened to me. I pulled my phone from my pocket in my mate's car to check my bank account before buying lunch and the screen was cracked. The phone has suffered NO recent impact, I had dropped it ~5 weeks ago. I'm not liking my odds of getting this replaced by my carrier (Telstra Australia).
[HTC One X] Gralgrathor:
Odd though. I've been using a hammer to repair my HTC One X, and there isn't even a scratch on the screen. I've tried to see how flexible the phone was by bending the entire assembly, no problem. The only way it could have cracked under the circumstances you mentioned is if the phone had a flawed screen at purchase. Perhaps a bad batch. I suppose stuff like that happens with every new model.

Edit: I should mention that even after my tender ministrations of the phone the thing is still broken. Perhaps I should upgrade my hammer.
[HTC One X] PAGOT:
Have you tried to factory reset the hammer?
[HTC One X] imy300:
manged to break my screen by bouncing my phone off 2 outside walls and the ground. Looked round at replacement screens to do a diy repair but cant find a legit one. Took the phone into carphone warehouse and they've quoted £79.99 which i think is ok. Can anyone point me in the right direction of a legit complete lcd unit ?

My One X has been treated with lots of TLC, never put in pocket with keys or coins, but has still managed to acquire a crack in one laminate of the screen, you can feel it with your fingernail but not with your fingertip :(
[HTC One X] imy300:
thanks had a look through that before but i think i'm going to stick with cpw.

I found the actual reason my phone slipped today after i managed to drop it again..the screen protector ! So my tip for the day AVOID the original HTC screen protectors!

So many threads about the bad bad bad bad screen, it's getting boring. :(

Mine is fine without a screen protector for months already, I love the screen it's the best I had ever. :D

i'm not blaming HTC for mr broken screen, it was the protector and only reason i even put screen protector on was because i got 4 free from o2.
[HTC One X] Prototype9:
For all the skeptics out there that the screen doesn't just crack randomly, here's another one for you.

On Sunday night I was on my phone minutes before I went to bed. I plugged my phone in to the charger, and set the phone on the cloth on my nightstand to protect it from the wood of the nightstand. After I set it down and being plugged in, I pressed the unlock button to make sure it was charging and that my alarm was set for the next morning. (Sometimes my power strip is turned off by my cat). I woke up the next morning to the alarm going off. I picked up the phone and set it on the bed next to my pillow and when I swiped the alarm off, I felt a nice long crack.

I have yet to figure out how the screen cracked without it being touched at all by any person.

and no my cat doesn't weigh much, maybe 6 pounds, and she doesn't sleep in my room.
[HTC One X] rachel_x_:
same

i sympathise, same thing happened to me yesterday. i put my phone in my work locker at around 10am i turned the sound off and the screen was fine. took it out after having my lunch, walked to the staff room, chatted with a colleague, checked my phone and boom, the screen was shattered.

the phone has never been dropped, it's only 3 weeks old. i'm certain it has to be a fault, if the glass or the casing was even a tiny bit larger at any point than usual then this would be enough to cause a screen to shatter. my last htc one x went 6 months before i lost it with a few knocks and the screen was perfect till the end.

i'm contacting HTC this evening for sure
[HTC One X] maxilick:
I farted a couple of weeks back and it blew the screen clean out of a SGS3, what puzzled me was that I was only sitting 2 metres away. My HOX is over a year old and has been subjected to much more fierce back drafts many times over and remains intact and functional.

Maybe check build no.'s/dates to compare.

Sent from...... The Milky Way
[HTC One X] Tigerlight:
YOU do not need to apply load to shatter a screen. Heat creates a physical load on it's own.

Molecular differences across the glass surface, minute differences in thickness, as these areas are heated they expand at different rates causing physical load at the junctions.

A great deal of heat in a short period CAN cause spontaneous cracks and shattering.

Long periods of less heat can weaken the structure of the glass to the point where not much physical pressure is required to break it.

As we all know, the HOX can get...shall we say a little toasty. Particularly one that is fully stock i've found. And also especially while charging.

Unexplainable, spontaneous cracking or shattering of SOME HOX devices is not outside the realms of possibility if those devices had perhaps an unluckily manufactured piece of glass.

All depends on the angle at which it fell.. If your unlucky, even a minor fall can shatter the gorilla glass :(

[HTC One X] coltch:
In my second HOX as the screen shattered on the first one. It fell of the table and just went - I'm glad it was replaced as the first one had dents and scratches from being dropped numerous times (the screen was never damaged though).

Any piece of glass can shatter if contact is made at the right place

Hi,

I was runing a modded 3.2 ROM ( I don't remeber exactly which one) and Tiamat 2.2.2.

I loved the animation screen which was a view of the ocean with moving reflections in the sea.

I spent hours in the net searching for this file but I could not find any reference to it.

Of course I coud revert to the previous instalation and try to save it somehow, but since my upgrade to ICS is running so smoothly, I would not like to try that.

Any help will be appreciated.

Check your private message box. I sent you a link for the download.

You need to drop it in to your \system\media for it to work. the file thats in there (bootannimation.zip) add .BAK to the end of it before droping the new one in. That way you can go back to the old one if you want.

If you don't have a dropbox acct sign up its free. For every friend who joins and installs Dropbox, we'll give you both 500 MB of bonus space (up to a limit of 16 GB)!

Hey,

If you do a nandroid backup, then wipe, flash a new rom and a new boot.img, will the boot.img from the previous rom be restored if you do restore it? Or do you have to fastboot flash it again? If so, is the boot.img which is found in the backup folder the one to use?

Thanks
[HTC One X] lucifaru:
yeah i am wondering the same question. Actually I have a nandroid backup of the stock rom, and i flashed other roms before too. I tried nandroid restore and everything did go back to stock, but I am concerned whether I need to flash any boot.img? if the stock kernel is untouched while flashing other roms, does that mean i dont need to reflash the boot.img?
[HTC One X] n1kon:
When flashing other roms the stock kernel is not changed. Unless you have an s-off device. If you did not fastboot flash boot boot.img then when you restore your back up you will be fine. If you did flash a new kernel then you will need to flash the boot.img for your backup as the backup will only restore the kernel on s-off devices.

So I've been having problems with push notifications (whatsapp, gmail) for a looong time now and it really pisses me off like f&*k. I mean, if I want an "instant" messenger, I don't want to receive my messages after 2 hours or when I wake my phone up, right ?

I switched ROMs countless times, same thing with kernels and all I can say is that the push notifications work perfectly ONLY on stock kernel+ROM (as from my experience). But what if I don't want to stay on 2.1 and receive my messages instantly ?

I've done some research on google for CM and push notifications and it appears that I'm not the only one having this problem. People say that there's an issue with mobile internet connection (I don't experience problems on WiFi) and it feels like it "refreshes" from time to time instead of staying connected. So what's the case here ? I'm desperate to have it fixed, but after weeks of research, all I found is that people on stock ROMs don't experience this s#it...
[XPERIA X8 General] hetunandu:
In many roms, To save battery the internet connection refreshes, so u just have to remove that setting, Ask it to the developer of the respective rom how to do it
[XPERIA X8 General] ziemny:
Thank you for your answer. I hope it helps with my push notifications issue, because I get this with literally every messanger (Whatsapp, Talk, Viber, GMail). Screw the battery life, I want to stay connected instead of getting a 2 hour delay between messages :(

[XPERIA X8 General] ziemny:
Lots of ROMs, lots of kernels, no task killer, no additional apps and it still disconnects after 5 minutes of the phone being idle. Then when I wake the phone up and go to Whatsapp for example, it takes a while to connect again (nothing shows in place of "Last seen"). In some cases I need to manually turn data transfer off and on again to make it work. Same with Viber, Google Talk, GMail. I eventually receive my messages after some random amount of time. Sometimes it's 5 minute delay, sometimes it's 2 hours.

[XPERIA X8 General] ziemny:
I think you missunderstood me ;)

I have no problems on WiFi. I have problems with push notifications in general. My data transfer won't stay connected full-time. It goes to sleep after I stop using my phone for a while, then it reconnects when I wake the phone up (sometimes I have to reconnect it manually), so the problem isn't with certain application, but with the phone in general.

Best regards
[XPERIA X8 General] zytres:
Solution

cyanogenmod turns off wi-fi when the phone is idle so you should download an app for that from the play store, like advanced wi-fi lock for example, to be able to keep it on. Hope i helped :D

But anyways i think that if the signal is low and the phone disconnects from the wireless network it wont connect again, so you will have to connect it manually again.
[XPERIA X8 General] ziemny:
I just changed my provider to T-Mobile and it seems like the problem is gone. Why ? I don't know. I hope it's not just temporary and I won't come back here in a few days, complaining even more.

[XPERIA X8 General] ziemny:
Yep, almost 2 days and it's working like a charm. If you have any problems with push notifications on CM, it's probably your provider screwing you over :p

Mod please close the thread :)
