[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] byproxy:
So when my phone is locked, the home button turns the screen on. This is fine, I often use it to check the time and such. However, to turn the screen back off I have to hit the power button.

Wondering if there's a way to set the phone so that the home button turns OFF the screen too (when phone is locked)? Possible?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Nit3mare:
Now, I'm no developer, but I'd have to say not possible. Unless someone can script an app to only work when the phone is in lock mode, but that just seems doubtful.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Johnnybee:
Same situation as you, found the answer in another forum.

Ive been using this app to turn off the screen by the proximity sensor, so far working great.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cooldan613:
you can try a custom rom to get it
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ckh997:
It is possible when you giving up actual home button function.

Then you have to enable on-screen navigation bar, instead of hardware physical button.

This thread is over 2 years old guys. Also, if you run AOSP, double tap the status bar to turn the display off. Works on SlimKat, should be like that on CM too.

I am trying to return to stock fw. using following thread

When my SGT is ON and connected to PC , the PC sees it as internal storage. However when I go to recovery-downloading mode and start ODIN, ODIN doesn't detect it.

What's the problem?
[Atrix 4G General] adriangb:
Apps that use the lock screen (ex poweramp) don't work with the finger unlock screen, ie, you have to use either a double lock screen (slide w/ widgets + fingerprint), which is a pita in my opinion. Can't we get widgets to work directly from the fingerprint unlock screen?
[Atrix 4G General] upndwn4par:
Might be more appropriate to ask this in in one of the CM7 threads.

I had this phone for a week keeping it sparkling clean besides the broken glass.

I hit the glass accidentally bumping it off the side of MacBook. Go figure. Yeah I know Gorrila Glass 2 is crap.

Based professionally looking video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H5TRf0REyMM

I chose IRepairFast.com to fix my broken glass. I paid $200+.

I am attaching pictures.

Also what you cant see on the pictures. The new screen is definitely not this same quality unless it was not installed properly.

Lastly, there is additional bleed on the buttons.

In retrospective, I should have done it myself or just not to bother fix it. Definitely would not recommend it.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] GibMcFragger:
That looks like crap. Did it come back with all the grease and scuffs on it also, or was that you?

Yikes. :eek:

Beamed from my KingCobra1X powered HOXL on Rogers.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] theoski:
I sent it sparkling new. No grease and no scuffs.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
Wow, they beat the crap out of that thing! It looks worse than the time I took apart an iPod Nano, and I quickly decided I suck at taking things like this apart, and don't do it anymore!

Apparently, "I Repair Fast" is not synonymous with "I Repair Well".

On another note, I know that some folks have had light bleed (from the capacitive buttons) on brand new HOX's, so that part may not be their fault, but just the display itself.

I must say the tech in the video does work professionally...if its the same tech he probably had a bad day
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] theoski:
This is what I chose that service. Based on the video. I did not expect any problems.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] theoski:
I sent them this thread plus extra pictures. Disputing the charge is not an issue to get back the cost of the repair. The bigger damages are that they made $350 phone ($550 bought on amazon - $200 screen replacement cost) worth now $150. So it is additional negative $200 swing.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] _MetalHead_:
Any response from them?

iRepairFast Response

Hello, this is John from iRepairFast,

The HTC ONE X is a very hard repair. This is due to the thin form factor of the phone pushing the internal components to be extremely compact. In order to accomplish the thin design, it uses an integrated screen, which is the glass, digitizer, and LCD molded together from the factory. These are not possible to separate. When replacing the glass or LCD you have to replace both at the same time. The main problem is the parts that are used for these repairs have the glass and LCD joined by a very thin piece of adhesive. While the parts ARE OEM replacement parts, they aren’t joined together in the same fashion, as when they are assembled in the factory. Due to the glass and LCD being separated by a thin soft piece of adhesive you can get a large amount of screen flex (The glass pressing against the LCD). In order to compensate for the screen flex a liquid adhesive is applied to the outer glass and mid-frame and then wiped off. This eliminates the screen flex problem.

Most likely the issue is that the adhesive didn’t cure correctly and slightly leaked out of the mid-frame during shipping.

We hope that you will contact us about your issue; we apologize for the inconvenience and would like to correct it and reimburse your payment.

Thanks for posting this thread!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] theking_13:
Look in the bright side... At least you didn't pay $300. :p

But seriously, it is a hard repair. Just look at a disassembly on YouTube, its freaking ridiculous, especially if you've repaired other phones, such as myself. The Samsung Vibrant, 3rd gen iPod Touch, and HTC Mytouch 4G are a breeze compared to this.

I do agree on the screen adhesive however, I bought some 1mm double sided tape to put the screen and phone back together, and it still creaked a little.

Good thing he offered to replace it, I'd be super pissed.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] lakas187:
Why not just do an insurance claim?..
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] danny39:
They could tell it was tampered with, voiding the claim.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] seh6183:
You can smash it into a thousand million pieces with a hammer and still do an insurance claim. Warranty is another story.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] shawn1224:
The fact that iRepair took the time out to reply via forum and issue a refund..... and attempt to correct their mistake. Says that they're a reputable company.

Well done iRepair, well done.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] _MetalHead_:
Warranty covers incidentals. If you break it, no matter the cause, they replace it.

For $220 HTC replaced my screen and the entire phone housing (possibly standard practice for lcd repair since mine wasn't damaged) including shipping.

For $200, why would anyone go third party at all to only save $20??
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] _MetalHead_:
Really? That's good to know! How long did it take them to get the phone back to you?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] beaups:
They had it for 2 days and I think 2 days shipping time on way back. Really top notch service. zero complaints.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] _MetalHead_:
And I take it they didn't give you any crap about it being unlocked/rooted? Did they wipe the phone or did you get it back just as you sent it in?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] beaups:
^Nope, it came back just as I had sent it. Rooted and unlocked.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] theoski:
I wish HTC advertise it. Not that busting a phone screen is so unusual.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] theoski:
I received the phone back from IRepairFast. Results on attached pictures. I am sending the phone to HTC. I will report back the quality and the cost of the repair once I will get it back. My original recommendation definitely stands, I would not use IRepairFast service. Simply if these are the results of phone repairs I would not offer the service and guess what they pulled the service: http://www.irepairfast.com/subcategory_product.php?cPath=88

BTW, on the phone the HTC tech said that the estimate cost of repair of the screen is $144.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] theoski:
Just found something in the spam folder:

They haven't actually attempted to fix the problem, because I notified Amex that this transaction is in dispute. Not a big deal as long as they show that the actually cured the problem.

They admitted that the tech did a crappy job gluing it back together and accused me of flaming their business on this forum.

I considered this matter closed with this company. Gigantic waste of time. As I said I will deal now HTC one, which I should have done probably from the start.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] _MetalHead_:
Accused you of flaming them? Pretty sure their work did that on its own. All you did was your civic duty to let your peers know what to expect if they sent their HOX in to them for repair. Screw them, they did a horrible job and deserve any loss of business as a result of their crappy work and this thread. I really hope you got every penny back from them.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
+1 to that.

OP just wrote an honest review of the shoddy repair job, to make others aware. I do not consider that flaming.

Response 2

Hello, this is john from iRepairFast. Ultimately, we want everyone to know that we care about our customers and will do everything we can to fix an error, we also want to make it clear that the customer never contacted us about this issue. We only found out about the problem from a google alert on this forum. We even searched our spam e-mail for any correspondence from him. As soon as we found out that the customer had an issue we tried contacting him over the forum, as we had no idea who he was. Still the customer never contacted us but sent his device back and then updated the forum. The same day we received his One X in the mail we received a notification that he had processed a “Charge back” with his credit card company pulling the $209 out of our account for his repair. We would have been happy to correct the adhesive on his device if this hadn’t occurred. We promptly sent back his device and e-mailed him the message below.

“We have had quite the time dealing with your situation. We wish you would have

at least contacted us about your issue before posting defaming and damaging

comments about our business on blogs. We had agreed openly on the blog to fix

your issue. Without contacting us you sent the item back and then processed a

"Charge back" on your credit card company taking funds from our account for your

repair. We cant be expected to fix your device after such actions. We admit,our

repair tech either did a sloppy adhesive job or it could have been an affect of

shipping in the summer heat of California. Ultimately, your screen came to us

smashed and destroyed and came back to you with a brand new screen. After the

charge back you will be getting the screen for free as we are not fighting it.

We received the package from you in the mail today, we will not be opening the

package. We are sending it back to you with signature confirmation.”
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] theoski:
The money was taken immediately from the account because the transaction was in dispute which I initiated when I did not hear back from you.

Yes, you will spend a lot of time dealing with the situation when your service is poor. I assume I am the only one that this same tech screwed up because you pulled the service from your website for HTC ONE X. You could have contacted me, once you received the phone to tell me that I need to clarify with credit card company that the transaction is being resolved and service my phone. You simply sent me a phone with no explanation. How is that a good service? Minus the email that I did not get.

My other gripe is that you keep saying that the problem was only adhesive which is not true. The phone was clearly banged up and dirty which it was not in the condition it was sent in.

Here is my bottom line. I sent you a one week old phone with a slight crack and paid you $209. You sent me back a phone that you can see on the top of this thread. The initiation of this thread was to show all of the users what kind of service they can receive from your company. All of the statements about other issues are inconsequential to the bottom line.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] squarehaedrob:
I think irepairfast returning the phone unmodified *the first time* (eg not attempting the repair) would have been the best course of action. They took the One X off their list of services because they aren't qualified to do the screen repair.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] theoski:
Not sure if the best. The credit card is a side issue, they offered reimbursement anyway. What's mysterious that they stopped offering HTC ONE X screen replacement. I think I was not the only that had problems.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] _MetalHead_:
This. "The One X is a difficult phone to repair" is no excuse for shoddy work. If you claim you can do it, then do it right. And do it right the first time. If you lack confidence in your ability to do it perfectly, you shouldn't offer the service at all. There was more to it then just a difficult screen to fix. The phone was returned to the OP dirty and beat up and for that there is no excuse. Frankly if it was my phone, I wouldn't even afford them the opportunity to rectify it. I would have disputed the charge immediately, posted a thread just like this, and investigated an alternate path to take. I for one am 100% behind the OP in this situation and will NEVER consider irepairfast.com for any service in the future should the need arise. Especially when HTC will do it for the same price.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] theoski:
Thanks for support _MetalHead_. I am ready to move on but I will report back once the HTC tech will look at it. I sent it today. I am not convinced that the new screen is 100% ok or installed properly because it is 50% dimmer on this same settings with another HTC ONE X phone that my wife has. Anyway, I will report back once I hear back from HTC so far they were very helpful.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] JWoz:
LOL, I had a completely different experience...These are the same guys I sent my One X to about 6 weeks back and had no issues. My screen was totaled and I wasn't expecting much, but was hoping it'd work again. They had tracking uploaded the same day mine showed it arrived, and I had it back in a total of 4 days from sending it. My One X came back looking like new. I'm not sure what happened in your case, but I'm betting that there's more to this than whats being said.:confused: I'm totally satisfied with their service and will use them again in the future. Here's some pics of how my phone looks now. sorry for the screen protector...
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] beaups:
How much did you pay?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] JWoz:
209.99 from my receipt. I think they covered shipping-cant remember. Reading this thread I know see I had other options, but I'm happy either way.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] corythug:
Thanks for the info in this thread, I am currently contending with this:
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] beaups:
I just can't see paying a 3rd party $210 to do it when HTC themselves will do it for $220. And replace the housing.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] _MetalHead_:
Yep, pretty pointless. Especially when there is a risk of getting your phone back looking like the OP's. I will stick to official channels TYVM.

I've ditched cable TV, and I'm loving the freedom. I'm wanting to ditch my house phone as well, and then only need internet from my service provider. They really hit you hard for not having TV, making the phone like $30 a month just for an effing land line! I have a cell, but I have a wife and kid at home that need a land line for occasional use. I've looked to adding a line to my cell plan, and I didn't get on a family plan, so another line is like $50 a month. So I'm looking at some kinda VOIP solution, I really like Ooma service. However the unit is like $200. I was thinking maybe Magic Jack but I don't like the annual fee. I just want to pay once and have a solution that's long term. Plus I don't like Magic Jack's gimmicky feel, makes it seem cheap. I can get over it if it's really the best option, but just personal feeling. Either way I'm open to suggestion, just tired of being over charged for a phone we use occasionally. Ideas?
[Off-topic] nj_PeePs:
I don't know all the providers that are out there, but if you find a provider that will allow to register your DID number using Asterisk, and you have an old (P 4 gen. one, or newer) laying around. This way you van configure it to suit your needs. The best part is you don't need to buy expensive VoIP phones. Just an inexpensive ATA (analog telephone adapter) that can be found on ebay, and use all of your existing home phones and wiring.

The only down fall to this setup (as with any VoIP setup) is you will need a UPS to keep it running in the event of a power failure.

If you have questions let me know.
[Off-topic] nim6us:
Oh you shouldn't left that door open,I've got a lot of questions! :D

So an Asterisk setup w/ ATA Adapter is essentially what Magic Jack and Ooma are doing, just charging you for it?

How would I check if my provider (I'm presuming you mean my internet provider) will allow me to register my DID number, just call them?

What is "P 4 gen. one, or newer" referring to?

I'm sorry I just need a little more explanation on the process, or if you could link me to a how-to page. I just need a point of reference to Google from, this concept is completely new to me.
[Off-topic] nj_PeePs:
Hehe, I dont mind. :)

1. Correct, but with the added benefit of being able to configure/customize it to your needs.

2. I'm not talking your current ISP (you will needt to keep them) I ment like Vonage, or Voipo, etc. Alot of them will give you a "free adapter" that that you can not customize much. Call them and see if the would be willing to give you SIP credentials (login) in place of the adapter, or go with one that offers SIP trunking, (all phone features like vm, cid, etc would be handled by you rather then the provider). SIP trunk providers just do the orig/term of your phone number, and then send traffic to you (ring) when someone calls your number.

Most (if not all) VoIP providers have the ability to port your number. meaning that you would be able to keep your current Land-line number. (same idea as changing cellular providers but keeping your phone number)

3. A "P4 gen one or newer" would be a computer desktop that has a pentium 4 or better, with at least 512 MB of RAM, and at least one NIC (network interface). I would suggest running Asterisk in a Linux/Unix environment, as that is native, and runs with out all the over head of Windows :D

This is a good howto, although a bit old. I would suggest running either Asterisk 1.8 or 10, as they are both supported (ver. 1.4 isn't anymore, but i'm not sure about 1.6).

One other thing I forgot to mention is e911. If you do decide to go the VoIP route (running either Asterisk or just using a providers provided adapter, make sure they offer this. In the event that you need to call 911, your home address will be registered, and you will be connected to you local PD dispatch (they will know where you are). If this is not offered, you may get connected to a regional dispatch, and it will take longer for your local PD/EMS/Fire to get to you.

Sorry it's been so long to get a reply back to you, life gets in the way. However I saw a Slickdeals offer that sparked the thought about our convo. The OBi110 is this an example of an ATA adapter that would work? Also is there an ATA adapter that's tailored to work for this application? I'm just looking for which bit of gear I should buy to start working on this project. Thanks!

EDIT: Or I just found the OBi202 looks like it does USB and Bluetooth, would that be a better first purchase?
