[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Stay Frosty:
Does AT&T's "one exchange only" rule apply to phones with dead pixels? In other words, can you keep exchanging until you get a phone without dead pixels? It seems to be a huge problem on these phones. I'm afraid to go back to the store and piss off the manager by rejecting phone after phone due to dead pixels.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] gunnyman:
Nope within the first 30 days warranty exchanges can be done in store.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] bmbrad:
So are there a bunch of problems with this phone or are a lot of people complaining about nothing? I sear everyday I look on this phone someone's says they are returning their phone because of issues.:confused:

Call it what you want but if you have to return it more than once that's horrible quality.

Trying to make a decision if this is the right phone to get....:cool:
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Stay Frosty:
AT&T website says defective devices must be returned within 14 days of receiving the replacement. Ugghhh. I thought it was 30!

Do you think they'll still take it back? They have been sold out because of the holdup at customs.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] gunnyman:
That means they give you two weeks to send them back your bad phone.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Epos7:
Update

In addition to the one stuck pixel, my replacement phone also has some slight backlight bleed on the bottom right corner where the plastic case meets the glass screen. It is not as bad as on my first phone, but is still there. I'm guessing it's a common issue as it's been present on both phones. The new one is better, and in both instances it's only noticeable in the dark.

My first phone had some flex in the case around the front speaker grill, which would cause creaking. The new one does not have this issue and feels much more solid in this area.

These are issues that 95% of people would not notice, but the 5% who would notice probably make up 95% of the population on this forum. I can live with a single stuck pixel (won't show black only) and a slight amount of backlight bleed for what is otherwise a great device. I only found the stuck pixel when using an app intended for that purpose, and will never notice it in real world usage with how small the pixels are on this phone.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] AllTheWay:
Trust me it's 30 days. If you bought the phone from a corporate store then you can return it to any corporate store. If you bought the phone from att online then you can do the same thing.

[HTC EVO 3D] metalfan78:
Might have something to do with the kernel not flashing right. Which recovery are you using

"We're coming from a pure power source."
[HTC EVO 3D] Threevo:
clockwork mod
[HTC EVO 3D] metalfan78:
You should give 4ext recovery a try. Its very nice. I have hboot 1.4 so I don't know much about 1.5. But 4ext has an option called smartflash that will flash the roms kernel correctly for phones that are s-on.

"We're coming from a pure power source."
[HTC EVO 3D] Threevo:
Still dosen't work
[HTC EVO 3D] tgruendler:
Would recommend downgrading and getting s-off. That usually solves 99% of peoples flashing issues. S-ON flashing is so 90's

[Motorola Atrix 2] Tim-7967:
Has anybody else had the issue of an out of control CPU?

Using the stock Task Manager, CPU usage is reported almost at 99% at times... but I get nothing to indicate usage out of the ordinary using Watchdog or other third party task managers. I am honestly at a loss for words at this point, as I can never pinpoint exactly what app is causing trouble. One minute my phone will be fine, and the next its 109 degrees with CPU being reported at 99% or 100%.

Has anybody else had luck in fixing issues like this? This is probably the second Atrix 2 I have received from AT&T, and it doesn't appear to be a hardware issue.
[Motorola Atrix 2] cornflaku:
I was actually having a similar issue a while back, and keep in mind I never exchanged my original handset.

On stock rom, my phone would freeze up, and begin to get really hot. I would have to remove the battery to restart the phone. Now I'm a creeper user and I've been lurking the forums since I bought this phone. I've seen tons of posts about it. The strangest thing was that it was sporadic, it would happen twice in one day, then it wouldn't happen for a month, and would suddenly happen out of nowhere, completely random times of the day. Your problem sounds similar, pretty much exactly what was happening to me except mine would freeze, you're probably catching it before it freezes. I wouldn't notice it as I don't constantly handle my phone it usually sits for at least an hour or two at a time. The 'freezing' may have been a temperature failsafe. I had luck restoring the phone to factory, but would occasionally still occur, the last I had the factory rom on it, it didn't happen for 2 months, at which point I installed a custom rom.

I read lots of replies to saying that it was probably a hardware defect, but I can assure it is not. Definitely on the software side of things.

Anyways, way too long of a post I know, try restoring to factory from the recovery partition.
[Motorola Atrix 2] jimbridgman:
Ok, now this is going to sound odd, and it is, it is also a real pain in the rear, but it is the ONLY way to figure it out.

Issue is that there is an app that you have installed, that you most likely always use, and install on your phone, that does not play nice.

How to fix this:

1) Trouble shooting:

remove ALL of your installed NON-stock apps, one at a time, and check your CPU usage and heat before and after each uninstalled app, when it goes away, it is most likely the last app that you uninstalled.

2) After finding that bad app, do NOT re-install it, report your issue to the developer.

3) Find an app that is similar, and does the same thing, and try a few out, but don't re-install the suspect app until the dev has fixed the issue.
[HTC EVO 3D] pgar23:
Title pretty much says it all, but in case you don't understand what it is that I am asking; I am running AOKP build 37b 4.0.4 (Unicorn Porn ROM) and I want to try flashing BEATS mod. The mod tries to install but prompts me if my system is Sense 3.6 or Sense 4.0?

I just flashed the sense 3.6 version as a test (after I made a nandroid of course :D) and rebooted the phone. No errors. But when I plug my headphones in, no BEATS???

Is there any switch that I need to turn on?

Any way to control BEATS audio with the ROM?

Thanks in advance
[HTC EVO 3D] raptoro07:
AOKP is not Sense at all. It is AOSP based.

Go here http://aokp.co/index.php/about
[HTC EVO 3D] pgar23:
That explains it. Thanks.

So is there a way to get BEATS on AOSP or no go?
[HTC EVO 3D] raptoro07:
Parts of beats that are done on a kernel level (audio processing, etc) can be implemented, but the Beats part of the ROM is dependant on Sense Framework.
[HTC EVO 3D] G.Newton:
Not trying to be rude or disrespectful..

How were you running AOKP and not realize it was an AOSP rom?

Characteristics:

1. AOSP lockscreen

2. AOSP status bar/icons

3. AOSP drawer

4. AOSP settings.apk

If you were running a Senseless ROM I could understand. Com'on brotha lol.

I'm just about done with my Verizon contract looking for a pay as you go phone plan. The boost plan is nice but not until now were there any attractive phones. They're advertising they have a Evo phone. Which ive always loved but could never being in Verizon. Is the Evo on Boost the same phone as the sprint model. If so then I can root and use all of the same roms kernels mods etc. If not then that's a bummer

Dear Users,

I have a problem with my SGSIII white which I received this morning.

When I tap a bit stronger on the upper half of the screen the frame makes a quiet but audible cracking sound creaking/squeak sound. When I squeeze the top part of the frame tightly with both fingers and tap again the noise is gone. It seems that the frame is a bit loose.

This is very annoying when working with the phone. Please can you tap a bit harder on the top part of the screen and listen closely if you hear a difference between tapping on the lower part of the screen.

I am bummed out that such a premium phone fails on such basic criteria.

Would be delighted to hear your thoughts.

Would you return the unit

Are you manually disabling your mobile data when on WiFi? When its auto-disabled as WiFi comes on, it should re-enable long enough to send MMS unless there's a bug.

No, definitely not disabling mobile data. I couldn't on Android Revolution and now can't on the stock rooted IMM76K.

Help me please! I can't find the correct information for this exact problem anywhere, or at least any information that has helped.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] powerplayer28:
Keis detected root and therefore won't let you update. You cannot update through the company/keis when rooted.

You can use Odin to return to stock/unrooted. Then connect via Kies.

Just wanted to give props to Otterbox. I have the Defender case and I wear it everyday on my belt to work as an IT Support Engineer. Today I was getting into the CEO's Jaguar and the belt clip caught on his leather seat and busted. I was not pleased but I called Otterbox and they said no problem we will send you a couple of spare belt clips no problem!!! Now that is customer service and I am glad I bought the Defender even though it cost a fortune.

Their customer service is top notch. Had to get a few replacement belt clips from them in the past, always prompt and free :D

I do have one question though, has anybody gotten either of the other series (impact or commuter) for their Skyrocket? I need a case for the weekends that I can put in my pocket and not have to worry about looking like a retard when I TRY to pull my phone out of my pocket.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] cdluck:
I'll throw my two cents in here:

I have both a Galaxy S2 Skyrocket with a Commuter case, and a Galaxy Note with a Commuter case.

I'm 5'3" and 115lbs, and my jeans\pants fit *well* (read: not skinny, but not loose by any stretch of the word).

The Skyrocket + Commuter case fits in my pockets without issue (both jeans and dress pants) and I can pull them out without the friction that you get from the Impact case (which I think is actually thicker than the Commuter).

There is no way in hell I'd be able to fit the Galaxy Note into my pockets, let alone with the Commuter case, without it looking really awkward. I don't even try; I use that thing more as a highly portable tablet to review pictures I take with my camera + Eye-FI card.

As for Otterbox, I could not have more positive things to say about them than have already been said in this thread. The cases are well made and align perfectly with the phones - I've never dealt with their customer service, but considering how the case is built and how I treat my gadgets, I doubt I'll need to.
