[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ykaratm:
I went to the site several times and used google to translate it, but couldn't figure it out. Ha ha ha.

Thanks a lot.

I'm downloading it now. the download is slow. will post after flashing it.

Tried the 2.6.15. Liked everything, but no FFC.. :(

---------- Post added at 01:38 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:11 AM ----------

I downloaded the MIUI 2.3.2 b1 by everything was solid except no preview on the FFC.

Now trying the dianXin OS. Its very good, but i have the following issues: some apps still in Chinese, weather widget does not recognize US cities (lol! should get e different widget), can't find a place to change APN to fix mms issue, asking me to update the OS OTA (not sure if i should do this cuz everything might be in chinese)!! I am searching for more updates about this rom. If you know something on top of your head please guide me to the right direction :D

Thanks a lot for your help.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HipKat:
You have to lower the resolution for the FFC preview
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ykaratm:
Thanks again. That took care of the FFC issue.

Using the 2.3.2 build since yesterday. Every thing is working now except mms. i can get it, but can send it. usually i have to change the mms apn to mm.myboostmobile.com, but that option is not avaiable in this. Any advice?

I did a google search for this issue and tried to look through the thread, but looks like its working for everyone!! Wonder what did i do wrong!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HipKat:
Not sure. I use Go SMS and that has always worked.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d0g:
Does anyone know the difference between Tyzing's & lithium76's MIUI builds?

(FWIW, Tyzing's seems to run smoother on my phone.)

thanks
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ykaratm:
Okay. That solves my last issue. Go SMS have the option to change APN for boost. Now i'm all set. My first successful installation of a custom rom where everything works! making a nandroid backup now. :D.. Thank you HipKat... couldn't have done it without your help... much appreciated!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HipKat:
What about Swiper's??

That's been the most solid

---------- Post added at 06:08 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:06 AM ----------

No prob! Glad it all worked.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d0g:
I tried that, but on my phone the MIUI.us version with HWA (& Mason I kernel) is more stable & smooth.
[HTC One X] arabology:
Many One X owners, including me, has be having from display/screen issues that are quite annoying. And apparently, none has a definite answer as to what the main cause is. hTC has exchanged all those faulty devices, claiming it's a "hardware" issue...while in fact, it's their stupid back covers...i'll explain as we speak.

First, to know what screen/display problem i'm talking about, please refer to this Video.

Few days ago, i got my hands on a "Dead" One X...but i just refused that fact...because it just works! but no screen....screen is always blank....can touch it, go to dealer and make a phone call even. Sometimes the screen turned, sometimes, and it was like in the video, exactly like it.....so what's the problem?!

yesterday, i'll be honest, i got mad at this phone and held it with a tight grip...my finger happened to press just above something...and the screen turned on! worked great in fact! i was astonished! it just worked....but, oops, i turned off screen, then when wanting to turn it back on...blank...

I kept pushing on the back casing of the phone, trying to find the same place that made the screen turn back on...and viola, same place pressed on, screen back on.

Wanna know what's causing all of this?

Here you go:

Click me!

And those connectors Should be in good contact with this on the back cover

Click me too!

But you know, hTC ****ed this one up, just like it does on most devices with connectors on the back cover...*sigh*...like the sensation for example...

So what to do now?

i tried a bunch of things, and almost broke those connectors with a stupid thick aluminum foil on top of them...

also i tried bending them up, but that doesn't help either, as when the cover pushes them down, their shape will change and well...didn't work.

i also tried putting aluminum foil on the metal connectors on the actual cover...didn't help as well!

it seems only pushing on it from outside does the trick!!

i also tried pushing on the connectors together while the back casing is off, didn't work...as it seems there must be a triple connection...board, connectors, and cover...

I think the only solution would be with a new back casing? but...if hTC f****d it up with this one, wouldn't all back casing suck too?? or is this a manufacturing problem that the connectors are just short and won't connect well?!

here are pictures of how the phone turned on magically after pressing over that connector, and another of how the screen gets messed up when the, well, there's not a good connection...Thank you hTC!

Sample 1 Sample 2

Tomorrow i will buy a new back casing and report if that helped me or not.

I only came to this because i have no warranty...if you have warranty, please consider an exchange!

Oh, and finally, i was able to get into bootloader, first time i saw that screen! always has been blank!...pushing on the connector also did the trick.

Finally!

Soooo...comments? :)

If anyone has an idea on how to make the back casing come in better contact with those connectors, please let me know.

UPDATE
[HTC One X] PAGOT:
Hmm, why did you put this into Q&A?
[HTC One X] arabology:
what? in a bad mood and wanna bash me?

where should i put it then? as people with such problem would come ask here, am i right?

EDIT: lol, it's all good now ^^
[HTC One X] PAGOT:
Well nah, would post it into General , as this was more like a guide. I wasn't bashing.. and not in a bad mood... If anything I bumped your thread up...

Also wanted to say that those contacts and that case seems to be f..cked up in general. As next to those you have the WIFI ones which in another thread, thats in General is shown how to fix...

My first comment was a compliment and you could clearly see I was smiling as I am on my avatar smiling. No reason to get defensive...
[HTC One X] arabology:
oh well...also WIFI connectors are bad?...no wonder SIII is flying and hTC is dying...

anyway, maybe a moderator can take this thread to the general forum, thanks for pointing those things out! :)

and sorry i seemed mean, but many, really, many users have nothing better to do but nag...trolls :rolleyes:

thanks ^^
[HTC One X] arabology:
Soldering would fix this! :)

putting two round solders on the gold plates of the back cover. i will try that tomorrow. but i fear they would squash the connectors on the board? as that's what happened when i used two tiny balls of aluminum foil....one connector got squashed by it and i had to push it back up and play with it to make it look normal again.....hmmmm
[HTC One X] muamers:
Moved to general forum :) hope youll fix it bro...:)

So it is a hardware fault,would never guess that...in the general forum you have a topic with the name "wifi fault" give a look on that ;)
[HTC One X] arabology:
*nods* already took a look at that :)

will try the soldering...or connecting a wire between both connectors...one of those should work :D
[HTC One X] muamers:
Like you guys would say: "inshallah" :d

Just dont rush with the opening and be carefull :)
[HTC One X] hamdir:
waw another fellow citizen :D

so before we go ahead and go

doooom gloooom htcccc suxxxxxxx

lets first affirm tons of people have no problems with their wifi and their screens

so yes those connectors issues whether screen or wifi are another forum of a manufacturing defect, things might not be perfectly aligned and hence the issue

the flickering issue your thread title suggests finding the source of, isnt related to this, 90% of the corruption we saw out of box on the HOX turned out to be software including the back-light flicker which HTC fixed by readjusting the LCD voltage

moving on to your question a new back cover might very well fix it unless the misalignment is on the board

but im wondering why is this pin related to the screen to begin with? the Sensation didn't have such a pin you could remove the back cover and the screen kept operating, also the disassemble photos that were posted for the HOX showed the board and screen running perfectly without the back cover

as for the stupid copper foil, make sure you don't loose it unless you are planning to make a bomb :) its added to distribute Tegra3 heat
[HTC One X] PAGOT:
Before you do that, please check the WIFI thread. There was already one member that described that soldering or adding a wire might be possibly harmful in the long run.

Changing the electricity stuff, how its called, the resistance or something :) (for the antenna though)
[HTC One X] walker07:
I'm having the same damn issue (check the picture) and thanks to Arabology for the well explanation on the problem. what I did was to send my phone to the service center and they told me it will take 3 working days (today was just the 1st day) for the technician to diagnose the fault and decide whether to replace the device or to repair it.

given that its a well known defect - should I just demand an exchange for a new device just incase if they revert that they repaired my phone? because I am sure the chances for the problem to reoccur is high.

Also just so you know I purchased this phone only about 3 months ago in HTC roadshow launch of OneX in Malaysia. HTC needs to come out with really quality products otherwise they will loose all their customers to samsung & apple (I believe they already lost major % of their loyal customers to their rivals)

oh well hope to get a good news soon. will keep u guys posted.
[HTC One X] arabology:
Update:

well, My One X is just cursed, few days ago it feel off my hand and the screen got cracked. now i'm waiting for my local repair station to get hold of a One X digitizer.

ALSO, HUGE NEWS, seems i was wrong. it's not the connectors. it's the whole part where there is a copper kinda sheath over it...i guess that's where are the cores are plus the Nvidia Tegra chip??! turned out, when i push there, that the screen lights up. at first i thought it's the connector, coz that's the most reasonable right?

what could be wrong under that? well, that place can be taken off, there's a metal housing that can be lifted off....idk, nothing seems wrong there...but seriously, just a slight push lights up the screen! so now i'm using the oldest trick in the book, i put a wrapped paper at the back of the casing, just where it will push over the place i talked about, and now screen is always on....just this small push does the job!! no more flickering!

i repeat, it's not the connector nor the back casing.......only God and hTC knows what's going on...

i did further investigations and tried to relate the "push" to any connections that could be on the board from the other side, but after disassembling the phone, there does't seem to be anything on the other side of the board that needs that certain force to help the screen to light up....idk, this just boggles the mind.

...anyone has any clue?!?

BTW, phone is working great even with the cracked screen, playing Dark Meadow just fine :p
[HTC One X] arabology:
i say you should demand an exchange. hopefully the device they'll give will be of a different tier of products that doesn't have that silly, unknown problem.

also, i'm pretty well sure that they won't repair your device. as i read many users regarding this issue, all of them got an exchange......seems pretty messed up. and i doubt my paper trick will hold long before this issue comes back :rolleyes:
[HTC One X] arabology:
now that i have a paper inside my back casing, i can see that my WIFI connection is not at it's best, because of the extra space it took. so i'll most probably solder all the connectors ;)
[HTC One X] lawrence750:
there was some guy, who posted a youtube video of when he pushed a certain area of his screen (the front part), it would switch off!

It only did it when pushed in that area, it was literally like a second power button.

Sorry I don't know exactly what it was, just the fact that somebody else had a similar problem!
[HTC One X] xl VipeR lx:
HTC repaired my phone as the screen was faulty, it had a yellow tint, when i sent it for repair it did have screen flickering, ever since its come back, with a new screen, i rooted it and also put in the NEW ARHD rom, 2.05.2 base or something, it has stopped flickering :fingers-crossed:
[HTC One X] Wikked72:
Finally found someone with the exact same problem. I haven't been able to use my hox properly for weeks. Think I need to be sending back to HTC
[HTC One X] walker07:
Finally I've got my OneX replaced with a new unit.:laugh: Hoping this will not have any sort of hardware faulty anymore.

interestingly. while waiting for my turn in the service center, I was just talking to a guy sitting and waiting beside me who came to report a problem with his OneX

and apparently its his 4th time visit to the service center. And all his previous 3 visits ended up with his OneX getting replaced each time....and each time with a different hardware issue (screen flickering / dead pixels / color faulty). Oh man....I thought the OneX was the best quality product from HTC.

and now I'm having a slight regret that I shud have just waited for another 2 more months and bought the SIII instead. God knows what other problems my OneX is going to come up with.
[HTC One X] PhilipL:
Hi

Probably what's referred to as a dry joint or some other connection not connecting very well, not uncommon in electronics.

You need to get it repaired or replaced, simple as that. If it is a dry joint under one of the chips that use a ball grid array of solder points, you will never be able to sort that out yourself and it would be scrapped more than likely rather than a repair attempted for such a fault. To repair, it would need to go into a special over to heat it enough to melt the solder under the chip. Exerting pressure will just eventually make things worse as you can end up fracturing more of the soldered connections as there is little give to resist flexing.

Regards

Phil
[HTC One X] arabology:
This has become quite the drama. Actually, the One X is most probably the worst device made by hTC...ever. So many bad things I can list, but that will need a different thread or it will kill the purpose of this thread.

I know many users will say their device has zero faults, so to speak...could be true. But, even if few users have the mentioned issues with their devices...(let's say 3% of overall HOX owners? )....that's still quite a loss in customer confidence, decrease in brand loyalty, decrease in competitiveness coz the word is out that the device, well, sucks..Regret by users, and the worse...increase in hTC's customer service expenditures, which adds losses.

I'm glad I only bought this device for cheap, only that, and I'm pissed. So what if I bought it for its full price here ($650) and ended with the issues?! Not good hTC...not quietly brilliant at all.

Now, about the flickering, actually, apart from pushing on the phone, squeezing it makes it work as well. Like, holding the phone from its lower right angle, and squeezing it with the other hand from the phones upper left angle. Just a small squeeze lights the screen up.

The device is magical...lol I keep finding interesting stuff! *face palms*
[HTC One X] arabology:
Quite interesting, thanks! :)

I had this thought in mind. But after bumping into many other exact cases, the probability that all had a fractured solder of a certain chip and thus not connecting well and etc....that's just rare....right? ^^
[HTC One X] PhilipL:
Hi

Not rare if it is a manufacturing problem, for example the oven that bakes the circuit boards isn't setup optimally and some of the solder joints aren't getting the heat they need to solder correctly. It could equally be a problem with the LCD display itself, or for example a faulty ribbon cable or connector. It could just be one person at the factory not trained or too tired to do their job correctly and aren't connecting things very well during assembly.

Basically it is unlikely this can be sorted out by the customer as a quick fix, unlike the Wi-Fi pin issue.

Regards

Phil
[HTC One X] arabology:
Yes, that makes perfect sense.

but, the devices work well at first...as it seems no one got this issue directly out of the box...only after some time.

Could it be coz the Tegra cores heat up toooooo damn much that the solders just melt?!....:eek:

Hi,

I have got a galaxy w8150, everything is fine, but the center button doesn't work. It does click normally but has no effect at all.

I also can not boot into recovery mode because of this.

I have tried to update the firmware of the phone but had no luck because Kies freezes in the process (tried differnt recent versions of Kies even in Windows safe mode).

I did hard reset couple of times, it didn't help.

Could this be software fault? Is there any other way to update the firmware?

Thanks in advance

[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ironma1den:
hi everyone i hope someone else has had this experience because i looked around the internet and dont see much. A friend of mine bought a touchpad a few months back and within a few days he

noticed it was clicking and moving on its own at random times. So he returned it and got another one and this one is doing the same

thing. Is this a hardware issue or something that can be fixed with a setting or something? Very hard to believe he has gotten 2 of them now and both are doing the same thing.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cdzo72:
Impossible to even begin to help without knowing what ROM and kernel and such
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ironma1den:
My bad it was doing this with stock WebOS and I installed Android nightly from 6/14 on this 2nd one he got and it was doing the same thing. Not sure about other details as I dont have it with me at the moment. Friend thought by putting Android on it was the culprit but I havent seen anyone else having these issues putting it on.

I told him that if it was doing this in WebOS as well then it cant be. Anyway sorry about the details if you need something else specific I can get it from him and post.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cdzo72:
You're right I haven't seen anything like it. But since it was doing it with stock webOS then have you checked in the webOS forums? Have the TouchPad been upgraded to 3.0.5?

Will have to check those forums thx. As far as i know it wasn't

upgraded also.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cdzo72:
I would have to guess that if an upgrade to the latest webOS then he's unfortunately gotten hold of another TouchPad with the same apparent hardware issue
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ironma1den:
yeah he seems to think they may have sent him back the same touchpad with the same issues. What a shame if that would be the case. Well other than checking for newer version it looks like he will have to send it back again and move on. Thanks for your help though :)

Hey everyone :)

This is the Sense 4 style flipclock as seen on my DigitalKarma V7 Rom. I wanted to give users that wanted a little Sense 4 flavor on other roms another alternative over their existing clocks in an convenient flashable zip :]

This should work on any 4.67 based Sense 1.0 Rom. I just tried this on TommyT's Classic Rom and surprisingly it works on odex rom. Anyway I wanted to point out that this is not an exact replica of the Sense 4 clock so you wont see the grey bar below the clock. What I wanted was the clean style of Gomorrah's clock combined with the aesthetics of Sense 4. Although I'm sure someone will want the grey bar at the bottom so maybe expect different style clocks from me

Big thanks to: Gommorah and Ygniew Malmsteen or this clock would not look the way it is.
