[HTC One X] bigoliver:
You want me to search Google for your answer to my question rather than just answering it?

OK I've just done than. Without spending too much time I guess you think I am bias against HTC or the One X I guess. Trying to portray only one side of the story?

I originally set this thread up as Three said they was nothing wrong with my phone and would not fix it (took about month for 3uk to send it back) 3 said there is no known fault. My phone was only a few months old, faulty and I was getting fobbed off!

After this thread proved the fault and nearly all the world's tech media sites and magazines reported it, and it is a real fault HTC finally admitted it was a fault! Then (after a few months with no phone) Three finally replaced my phone.

I did get an s3 instead of another HOX because I don't trust HTC anymore and after all my trouble getting it exchanged I wanted another brand (HTC have prior to this been on BBC watchdog for poor customer service, Google it)

I never wanted to create a bias thread or to show HTC in a bad light. I think I am just telling it how it is with facts, but you might be right, is that really how you see it? If so I'll try harder not to.

I don't want to delete the thread as it is helping so many people globally. But I can add something to the OP to try and give more balanced information, please offer suggestions.

Another member said the horror stories I added to the op gave the impression all repairs went bad so I rewrote the whole section to make it more balanced, I do listen to feedback and implement it.

Yes the 1000s of faulty phones was plucked out of thin air, HTC don't even know the figures themselves but they are guilty of saying only a small percentage are effected when HTC didn't even know what percentage is affected! (Confirmation bias the other way now)

I am 100% certain that at least 2,000 phones will be affected by this WiFi fault. This thread alone has had over 600,000 views and over 3,000 replies. So to say 1000s of phones are affected is a, beyond resonsble doubt, correct statement, however I do agree with you that without sale figured the number is somewhat meaningless. A percentage would be impossible to get and I wanted to show you that OK, YOUR phone might be working perfectly but spare a though for the 1000s of people who had to save up to buy their dream phone and ended up with a phone that didn't work as one would reasonably expect it to. Also, many people didn't get a replacement or repair until this thread made the world media. (Read horror stories in OP) now HTC admit the fault, designed a fix and are repairing phones that HTC should have done legally before this thread created world media attention.

HTC did mess up the design

HTC did not fix phones for months trying to deny anything was wrong with them.

HTC do not give replacements they only repair (generally)

HTC will charge you for repairing their admitted design flaw if your boot loader is unlocked or relocked even if you never rooted never changed ROMs and even though the unlocking is nothing to do with the fault.

These are facts that are discussed here, I do not go on threads with people who like their phones saying how great the One X is and tell them it isn't a good phone just to to give a more balanced thread! that would be weird! I don't understand why you do thst here? I know you don't work for HTC so it just seems weird to me

I have said many times I loved my HTC one x, I have said and will say again I perfered it to my current SG S3. The HTC One X is actually the best phone I have ever owned, until it broke (after around only 6 weeks). I think I've been quite balanced but I'll try harder.

My WiFi, Bluetooth, GPS and 3g where all either weak or compltly useless after the fault occured. It was also draining my battery trying to maintain a signal.

I remember proudly showing my HOX to my mate, we drove to Leeds and my HOX GPS would not connect after 10mins he pulled his SG S2 out and it connected to GPS in a few seconds, I just hung my head in shame.

Again I'm not wanting to spread HTC hate, I'm just wanting to help people.

I hope we are OK?
