Death grip lol, I hate the way people over exaggerate problems with this phone after reading a few threads on internet forums with problems. All phones will have probles with them, well when I say most I mean most companies (Samsung, HTC, iPhone) will have a few hundred phones that are defective. Get the One X, if you are unlucky, get a replacement within 28 days from the ship you bought it from.

:D my Wifi is perfect, the only problem with my phone is a yellow dot in the rottom right of my phone, well more like a patch but it doesn't bother me that much! I've rooted my phone so probably killed the warranty. :D
[HTC One X] shankly1985:
No wifi issues here, get the phone :) Always remember the people who have problems post on fourms, people who dont have issues dont. So it seems like the problem is widespread :cowboy:

[HTC One X] bigoliver:
Hi,

I started the thread regarding the WiFi issue, putting the issue to one side I would like to say the HTC One X is the best phone I have ever had, it is so fast, beautiful screen looks great and is great value, I would recommend it to anyone if not for the WiFi issue.

About the WiFi issue, HTC have stated that it is fixed on the production line now. I would recommend you buy the latest batch you can find, you can find out the manufacturing date in the serial number.

If you are in the UK you get 28 days to declare the phone DOA and get an exchange, so if you do get a phone that develops the fault within that time you can exchange it and hopefully get an even newer batch.

I really don't want to put people off this great phone and HTC have been good about the issue (so far).

I will still recommend this phone, just keep an eye on your WiFi and don't be squeezing it hard, especially if the WiFi is ok.

Oliver

Hi, l have hox for 3 weeks and everythings works super... For me this phone its perfect...
[HTC One X] BarryH_GEG:
You guys testing Wi-Fi should really download Wi-Fi Analyzer from the market. Set the polling to the highest level in settings and it will give you a good picture of both the strength and consistancy of the signal the phone's reading. OEM indicators are all calibrated differently, don't refresh frequently, and are usually optimistic. You can also turn the ads off in settings.

For those that think I'm some sort of deluded HTC fanboy in denial, here's a shot of my One X next to my UK 3G G-Tab 10.1. The One X is getting about a 9dBm better signal on my network (in red). And the G-Tab's not a shill, it's recognized as having excellent Wi-Fi performance amongst tablets.
[HTC One X] bigoliver:
The One X has stronger WiFi when working correctly than most devices, it is a strong point of the phone and more reason to ensure your phone is working as it should.

is this a good number？

Sent from the Best phone in the world. SOON TO BE BETTER
[HTC One X] BarryH_GEG:
True. BT is also significantly better than my old i9100 and the G-Tab. There's only two points being debated really...

1) How many devices are affected.

2) Whether or not devices that aren't affected may be in the future.

My personal opinion on item one is probably 10% at most. Otherwise the number of complaints would be larger and involve sources outside of XDA. 1K people voted in the overall defect poll. Someone started a Wi-Fi specific defect poll and it petered out with less than 92 responses and is now on page four of the Q&A section. Even with that, 46 said they had a problem and 46 said they weren't affected or not sure. The screen flickering thread had about the same number of pages/responses as the Wi-Fi thread so you can draw the conclusion the Wi-Fi problem is no worse than the screen flickering. The number of people participating in a poll gives you some idea how big a hot button an item is. There were 243 responses in the gap poll and 145 in the yellow spots poll. With only 92 responses, one could surmise from that Wi-Fi problems are less significant to people than the other two items. As for number two, based on talking to a h/w engineer, the design itself isn't prone to failure so I'm going with devices that are fine should stay that way. That of course can only be proven over time.

I'm not trying to get you (or anyone else) to think differently, just trying to introduce some logic as those that are subjective grapple with how big a deal some of the stuff we’re discussing really is.

over exaggarated issue

I have been using H1X for the last 2 months..no wi fi issues.. mine is always on and got good signal.

one thing is clear..bad rumours spread very fast, especially for HTC..many good things in this phone, but very little told about.
[HTC One X] bigdirtyjase:
I've had my One X for a week now (brought 2nd hand) and haven't had any wifi issues.

As most people have said...the wifi issue affected an early batch of One X's but that has been fixed now on the newer lots (according to HTC)
[HTC One X] Fuseless:
Thanks guys for your replies, which have put me again on the HTC One X track, I really like the looks on that phone, unlike the S Amoled on the Galaxy and the overall looks.

I live in Lebanon (Middle East), so the probability of me getting a defective unit is more likely, especially that most phones sold in the country are without warranty (except for 1 shop which is the HTC agent in Lebanon, but i'd rather buy a no warranty phone than buy through them as I have bad experience with their support, + prices here are higher).

My current plan is to arrange getting one through a friend from expansys france, in this case I I think I would be lowering the chance of having the issue, and would keep my warranty.
[HTC One X] ladyhaly:
Been using my One X for almost a month now. No problems as well.

I highly agree with you.
[HTC One X] elmonen:
Im in the same boat with you! No problems with wifi.
[HTC One X] Fuseless:
Just a thought, is the HTC One X dual core model worry free or does it include the problems of the int version?
[HTC One X] cjm1979:
I think your worrying over nothing. What problems are you talking about? Id doubt your going to get advice on which other phone to get in a One X forum.

Ive had mine since about a week or 2 after launch and ive had no problems at all and i would of thought that the newest built handsets would have most if not all of the problems resolved that your worried about.
[HTC One X] det66:
Precisely mate .well said
[HTC One X] BarryH_GEG:
Sadly, there's no such thing as a "worry free" high-end phone. The One X, One XL (S4-dual core), and SGS3 all have their share of issues. Some affect every device; others are manufacturing, assembly, or QC issues unique to a percentage of devices. Based on the posts in the SGS3 forum, I'd say you're more likely to get a SGS3 with a SAMOLED display issue (bands, tint, "blobs") than a One X with Wi-Fi issues.

As long and heated as the Wi-Fi defect thread is; only 46 people said they had the problem when one of them started a poll. There are probably several hundred thousand One X's in people’s hands by now. Don't mistake the loudness of those complaining for quantity of phones experiencing the Wi-Fi issue.

I'll say this though. After acknowledging the problem is in their words “affecting an isolated number of handsets,” HTC's said their strengthening the design in newly built phones. If you're buying the phone online and not able to test it first and possibly return/exchange it easily, you may be better off waiting for HT26 (June) or HT27 (July) devices to be available. A friend imported a HT24 from the UK last week and hers is fine and has none of the issues frequently discussed here. And she’s one of the most anal retentive people I know.

we're mid of july and i don't see pple on the forum with HT26 or HT27 units, any input???

[HTC One X] s1977:
I think I am one of the few that have the wifi death grip issue (SD24). See attached....

However it is such a difficult issue in normal use that you have to hold the phone at the top to recreate it....whereas in the Jesus phone it was a different story and we were all told that we were holding it wrong all this time... :D. Anyway, I have been using it since two months now and never felt the issue in actual use,

not once

.

There's one reason why I still have the phone and that is that even with this issue, I get by far the best wifi and phone reception throughout my house where my Galaxy Nexus struggled everyday. Besides it is fantastic phone ...

One S too is a good phone but you'll miss the awesome screen and tegra power, not to mention great design! I don't know about the S4 version but that may be another choice or just ensure that you get one from the newest batch....HTC say they have fixed it and I will trust them on this....
[HTC One X] bigoliver:
Judging by your pics, I would say your phone is fine. You will weaken your signal if you purposely cover the antenna with your hand.
[HTC One X] E_Goldstein:
Ive just spent ten mins trying to get this death grip to work, my signals dont budge for me :s
[HTC One X] BarryH_GEG:
What's lost in the fracas due to the h/w Wi-Fi fault affecting some devices is that all mobile devices have Wi-Fi issues that vary based on the environment they're used in. As an example, the i9100 has a particular dislike for D-Link routers and got poor range coupled with battery drain when used with them. I'm sure there's individual stuff like that affecting the One X too but nobody discusses it because it's all blamed on the h/w issue. Wi-Fi, BT, and even cellular radio all are dependent on two devices to work correctly. That's far from guaranteed on any device, mobile or otherwise.
[HTC One X] johnnytan82:
I do have the WIFI problem on the brand new set of HTC One X too...i manage to get replacement since within warranty period. so happy and thought it has been solved, but who know the new set of the replacement having the WIFI problem again! I have checked the manufactured date to ensure it is latest batch (the date was 2/7/12) but unfortunately the WIFI problem still detected on the 2nd day. now I am pending to replace with another unit again..the technician told me long queue waiting for new units, then I ask mean lot ppl having problem with HTC One X which need replacement? just to share, the pending unit will be my 4th unit of HTC One X since I bought it one month ago (first is the unit I bought, 2nd unit is the replacement due to battery prob on my 1st unit, then now using the 3rd unit with WIFI problem and the coming 4th unit not sure will it be the final unit for me to use probably for longer period?)

anyone do facing the same unlucky scenario as me?
[HTC One X] BarryH_GEG:
Plenty of them. Join bigoliver's thread here and you can add your story to the list.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1688538

With the "fix," HTC hasn't changed the design, they've just added spacers to prevent the back from being compressed. Since I doubt the phone's being compressed in production or in transit, the problem is created during assembly when the body isn't inserted in to the shell properly causing the antenna connectors to be misaligned. Why that happens to some phones and not other is beyond me. If the issue occurs in batches, meaning 100 phones built one after the other has it, all the phones that the store you're working with received at the same time could have the issue. That last one is purely pulled out of my butt.
[General Questions and Answers] shaikss:
I am working on a project to guide blind students. I am using WiFi Tags and android mobile. WiFi tags are placed on the wall and android is carried by blind student. The student's time table, shortest path algorithm to reach specific lecture hall is loaded onto HOST.

Whenever android mobiles comes in vicinity of any Wifi tag, it receives the beacons from WiFi Tag. In order to achieve this, android has to scan all the wifi devices every 3 sec(say).So, the android has to forward the WiFi tag id (mac address), android mac id, Received Signal Strength to the HOST. So, how should I do this? What are the different applications to be loaded onto the android mobile? How should the scanning be done?

Once HOST receives the data from android, it will determine the shortest path in accordance to algorithm and has to send back instruction (say direction - Go Left) to android. So, how can we do this? Since the student is visually impaired, the incoming msg should be audio.

Please let me know how to achieve this? I am new to android.

Thanks Shaban
[General Questions and Answers] arrigo187:
Hello everyone. I am new to this forum so I hope this goes well. About a month ago I bought my first smartphone which was an HTC Sensation XE. I had to return it several times because it would overheat and cause my fingers to burn. I just recently bought an international version of the Samsung Galaxy S3. I am probably just overreacting because of my old phone but I want to make sure it is not running abnormally hot. Anyways, I am experiencing temperatures in the high thirties ( 38-40 Celsius) when browsing on the internet and I have experienced temperatures in the low forties (40-44 Celsius) when playing graphic intensive games such as Riptide. Are these temperatures in the normal range? I have read on here about underclocking and different ROM's but honestly I am way to technology illiterate to be messing with any of that. Thanks, any help would be much appreciated.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] fox-orian:
To start, I live in Boston, MA.

When I first got my Evo 4G LTE, it was getting about 1300~1500 kbps download and 700 kbps upload and 100 ms ping. The earliest tests in my Speedtest app show pretty commendable speeds.

Then, hmmm, about a week later those speeds have completely disappeared. Download is average about 90 to 120 kbps, and upload 100 kbps, about 750 to 1500 ms ping -- and these are tests performed at non-peak times such as 4AM. This has been consistent for about the last 10+ tests with different servers and locations around my local area in the city. Just to be sure, I also ran tests on my Wi-Fi connection, and the phone tested at my full 25Mb/s down / 3.5 Mb/s up cable internet.

My Evo is unlocked, and running the Charmeleon rom. I'm wondering if anyone else here has had a similar screeching halt to their wireless speed, either running stock Sense or a custom ROM. I'm wondering if the rom I'm using is capable of causing such slowdowns? Hmmm.

Before I try perhaps going back to the stock rom, any possible little tips would be appreciated! I'm getting sick of waiting 3, even 4 minutes for a very simple page to load in the browser.

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Toledo_JAB:
I run X10S 8.3 it is very smooth no lags.

Achotjans Rom is a complete Sony XPERIA S stock Rom. While Champs is a stock S & Sola Rom with some app's from arc and others. I think of champs as a performance mod of Achotjan's stock. That is a very basic way of comparing them.

You can always do a backup in xrecovery then install 8.2 & upgrade to 8.3. Then backup 8.3 and you can switch between them. Just remember to do a 'format system' from xrecovery before a restoration or boot loops will happen
