I send my phone off each time, next day delivery. So turn-around for new phone is 3 days.

10 phones in 60 days is entirely possible.

a) Dead zone across the screen?

b) Yellow spots that don't go away

c) Screen damage on one them

d) Creaking loose cases

e) Overheating - Ie, cannot charge because the phone is constantly hot, even when not being used.

f) Serious screen flex issues.

Later on this evening I will go an screen grab my Google account, and you count them all for yourselves.

I'm going to run with the plan that they check it properly, and hopefully, this time I will have the phone I wanted.

I can't fault CPW/Mobiles.co.uk because they have been excellent. They even offered me the SG3 on my 7th replacement.

Yes, I shouldn't be getting so many dud phones. No doubt that is why I have been asked to send it to a different address this time. But I don't care, they can check the screen damage on this one. I didn't even bother putting the sim card in this one. Nor did I bother registering the device on Google.

You do know you can't delete a phone once it's activated against an account.

Why did I carry on ordering a new phone. Because, like you, I couldn't believe how unlucky I have been. The law of probability should have dictated that the next one SHOULD have worked. So when you get to 7 or 8, you convince yourself the next one HAS TO BE working. But when you get it, and see major screen flex, or major screen damage.

The only thing you can do, is laugh.

I know CPW return address of by heart.
[HTC One X] hamdir:
some of us did reply well to you

no need to become disrespectful

users around here are tired from the SGS3 guys coming around and hence their reaction

to help we all said, pick your One X yourself or get something else its very simple

your source seems to be recycling the same "old" batch
[HTC One X] oliseo:
I know, and I apologise. I went back and edited that last line out. But I had to wait 2 minutes. So no ninja edit.

Sorry.
[HTC One X] oliseo:
Remember, I couldn't use two of them.

And others the fault developed over time (ie, yellow spots, overheating constantly)
[HTC One X] hamdir:
bro i personally believe you, because i had the exact same problem

i exchanged two and unboxed 10! but they were all from the same batch dates

my third is a perfect sample and a beast

we are in the fourth month now, the quality is immensely improved
[HTC One X] oliseo:
I know. I really like this phone. Personally, I think nothing compares to it.

When they offered my SG3, I went to have a look at one in store. I just didn't get on with it.

Actually, it's become a bit of a challenge really now. I WILL get a working phone without issues.

I feel for HTC, as I think they've made the best phone on the market. Apart from the QC issues.
[HTC One X] lawrence750:
yeah i love this phone will also be persisting until i get a flawless one!
[HTC One X] xdn:
I too have had 9 or 10 HOX (decided to stop counting) and I've reached the conclusion that there simply isn't one of these phones that is perfect.

My advice is, don't waste your time trying to get a flawless one as you may end up doing that for months. Just get one that doesn't have any major defect, but do accept the minor issues. This phone's QC is absolutely terrible, the worst I've seen in a phone until now and if you can't accept that you should get a different device. The SG3 is the obvious alternative but there are other decent high end phones out there as well, and you can also wait until others such as the new Nexus come out.
[HTC One X] hamdir:
so according to u all of us satisfied in this forum r carrying flawed one xs but lying about it?

we have proven again n again that the defects r mostly coming from a specific early batch that is still circulating

u want to nag? at least know how to, nag how HTC didn't recall the rotten tomatoes
[HTC One X] chrisjcks:
Well, mine is an early HT23 and is perfect. :)
[HTC One X] xdn:
i know this is not your case, but many people who consider their phones perfect are not picky and don't care or don't notice some minor defects. And I know there are also perfect phones, but if it takes 10 exchanges to find one, that's something I wouldn't recommend to anyone.

and apologies if i have missed the proof about defects happening on a particular batch, is there anywhere i can read more about that? my personal experience has been with several HT/SH 23/24 faulty phones and there there are plenty of reports of issues with all sorts of 23/24/25 serials.
[HTC One X] Kickasskev:
Totally agree

3 HOX's later and I gave up got a GS3 and it faultless

I had 1 HT23 and 2 HT24's
[HTC One X] skr_xd:
JFI,

All those four i had faulty ones were ht25 and sh25.
[HTC One X] atrako1973:
I went through 4 hoxes ,than asked my self why do I put up with this? So I discovered I didn't have to ,so I switched to gs3 ,3 weeks and its perfect I didn't have to scream at it or send it back unlike the amazing beautiful large screen hox

Glad to say I'm not hoxed anymore by HTC
[HTC One X] fortesquieu:
10th replacement phones seems like an user error to me. :eek:
[HTC One X] Laurentius26:
Sure, first of all there's a difference between picky and picky, second I think if you buy such a expensive phone everybody cares about defects.
[HTC One X] lawrence750:
No. Just no.
[HTC One X] :
This is simply not true.
[HTC One X] hamdir:
i didnt not say no defects on the One X, no product does

but the concentrated disastrous amount of them, were coming from certain close dates (around HT24)
[HTC One X] :
That is a guess, not a fact. HTC has not confirmed this and if you look at the wifi problem thread I guarantee you'll find pretty much every serial number.
[HTC One X] hamdir:
the WiFi issue is over rated
[HTC One X] averygagaanroid:
yeah it's overrated when u dont have it.
[HTC One X] hamdir:
ye I don't have it on an April batch, I didn't have it on the two defected phones I returned

anyway I wasnt discussing WiFi defects I meant the condensation of screen lamination defects came from similar batch dates

we have dramatically less defects (non WiFi) reports
[HTC One X] oliseo:
I've not had any WiFi issue on any of the phones I could use. Mainly it's been the case and the screen. Either creaking cases, lifting screens, or screen damage.
[HTC One X] hamdir:
yea mate over a dozen one xs i unboxed and at least another dozen with my friends non of them ever experience the infamous wifi issue
[HTC One X] Markoleti:
Cracking left side ... Like a lot off ppl. When i try to change phone,they say that they dont do it ... Just repair. Opening and somting more ... Craecking case still here ... :(
[HTC One X] :
I had mine for two months before it appeared. Some people's have lasted longer, some shorter. Look at the size of the thread, it wouldn't be that big if it was over rated, HTC wouldn't have taken the time to release a statement if it was over rated, they wouldn't have made an info sheet for their engineers to show them how to fix it if it was over rated. You are one person, just because you have not encountered the issue does not mean it isn't there.

Also the fact that we have less reports could be put down to several other things such as the fact that that everyone here has already purchased their device, the drop in sales since the initial release of the device etc...
[HTC One X] randombirt:
+1
[HTC One X] lawrence750:
to be fair you wouldnt notice it from unboxing. it develops over time after there has been general pressure on the screen from being in pocket or similar, or even from testing for the problem too vigorously. in fact it does seem to deteriorate more (temporarily) when warmed up as well. my bluetooth adapter was 6 inches from my phone whilst playing dead trigger, it was working fine at first , then without moving the phone or bt, after it had warmed up the sound started juttering a lot. had to then move the bt adapter basically right next to the phone for it to work.
[HTC One X] Laurentius26:
First One X I bought and first one was right.

I'm loving it, no screen protector and not any scratch on the screen for months already (wearing it in my pocket all the time and to the beach as well ;)).

One stupid mistake I've made and that's I've opened my device because I taught I had a wifi/bluetooth signal issue and tried to fix myself using the wifi bug thread instructions.

No bad words to them as it's horrible if you have but It was a lot of stress and I almost screwed my device.

But I'm glad to tell you at the end of this horror story I managed to fix it and it's still alive (aldo it's not a realy nice fix).

I still don't know if it was my device which was causing the bad signal or the bleutooth hardware I have.

Anyway, I just want to tell you the One X is a awesome machine and be careful with it, all screens do scratch, One X or any other phone.

And all phones have there pro's and cons. ;)
[HTC One X] shinigamikris:
Had mine pre ordered before it came out and haven't had any issues :) except the huge crack in the top right hand corner of the screen that I didn't get when I didn't drop it on tiles. Must be a fault. Better send it back. Lolololol.

so does this mean goodbye sprint for most of us?...http://www.pocketables.com/2012/08/...ed-unthrottled-data-starting-september-5.html I noticed they are talking about this in the "why do you stick with sprint" thread so if a mod wants to delete this please do. I didn't see that b4 i started this thread.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bigblue4life:
No it doesn't for me, been with sprint 10 yrs and they always seem to 1 up everyone at some point. Plus they been good to us.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Raistlin1:
This is most likely going to get me to switch. Buy an unlocked Nexus from play store and setup on tmobile BYOD plan and buh bye Sprint.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jcornpe:
No nexus devices. After watching ET4G ICS screw ups, I am only buying Nexus devices.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scarmon25:
That's my only reason I haven't switched yet. Anytime I need a payment extension they give it to me. If I have trouble with something they work with me. That means a lot to me. Now the minute they start being asses. I'll be switching for sure.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] daniel4653:
Sprints customer service is awesome compared to other companies and that's one reason why I would stay with them
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jbrawley1:
So this states no hotspot offical or unoffical... is this the same with sprint and the hacked hotspots void this? or will this be impossible with T-Mobile?:confused:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] donsh00tmesanta:
not for me as its better than tmobile for me

shame id love to get those 42mbps speeds
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] s_special:
This is exactly what I was thinking

Sent from my epic 4g touch 4.1
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] attrapp:
Ill be sticking with sprint. T-mo only has 2G speeds where I live as compared to sprints 3G. I'm also assuming I'll eventually have sprint LTE with network vision and all.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] s_special:
Don't you think that when sprint's LTE network becomes live and widespread they too will throttle their unlimited data
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] attrapp:
Fingers crossed for being grandfathered in.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] woody296:
They won't now if tmobile keeps this plan... it's good for everyone.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mideastbeast:
This video says you won't be able to use the phone as a hotspot at all. I wonder if they'll kick you off for hacking hotspot or if it will even be possible to hack it? I love how they compare minutes but don't mention that Sprint offers "any mobile any time" which makes a world of difference. About 3,500 any mobile any time minutes a month for me.

That little missing point is "slightly" important. ;)

Tmobile Cnet video
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] revamper:
Hacked hotspot depends on the phone, not the carrier.

Not everyone uses that many minutes. I stay under 100 usually.

T mobile is going to acquire a lot of customers due to this. Its a great move and may actually spark some competition and bring unlimited back.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mideastbeast:
Agreed competition and choice are good for everyone. I hope this move also keeps the 2 big companies in check with their plans and pricing.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] woody296:
To be honest i don't think att or verizon give a damn about what anyone else does, I just hope the 2 weak sister companies can hang in there.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] donsh00tmesanta:
I get awesome 3g and 4g here at home and at school but tmo seems only 2g

But at school they have 42mbps

If they had that at home id be hell yea
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] revamper:
ATT and Verizon will give a damn when they start losing customers to t-mobile. T-mobile actually has a good network unlike sprint.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] lilotimz:
Tmobile actually has a pretty mixed up network. Outside of major metropolitan areas all they have is 2g or roaming (or lack of it) while sprint usually has native 3g (at least) or roaming on verizon. Service also degrades rapidly when you go inside buildings compared to Sprint and VZ not to mention the fact that T-mobile has quite the lack of spectrum to deploy both LTE and HSPA42+ on its current spectrum holdings.

Literally it's a mixed bag depending on where you live and what you do most like traveling or sitting in one spot. Just remember this. Sprints Network Vision upgrade is upgrading each and every tower to fiber or microwave backend. Their speeds are guaranteed to increase. Meanwhile T-mobile lacks spectrum in a lot of places and is currently in the process of refarming to 1900mhz 3g/4g (at last!) while lte is quite a bit away.

TBH i'd only switch if youre in an area with beyond horrible service and NV upgrades coming in a year or so...Other than that... ya it's great that t-mobile is getting unlimited again although in the long run sprint will be ahead of them.

Speaking of which... i'm starting to miss my good old sidekick lx and tmobile g1...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tt281gt:
Don't they throttle you to a slower speed after a certain point though? That is a turn off for me.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] donsh00tmesanta:
Not this new plan
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] playya:
I switched over to T-Mobile prepaid and other than lack of roms in comparison to Epic or my old Evo I have no complaints. My 2g speeds seems the same in comparison to the 3g speeds I used to get with sprint. A plus is just being able to use a sim Card as well as the resale value of GSM phones are definitely higher.

All in all no real complaints about them. Customer service has been OK to me so far. I still own my epic and I have a GS2 on Tmobile. Just want to say streaming on Tmobile is a great thing where it was a headache on Sprint. My speeds vary from 3 - 21mbps
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rocket321:
Those who have mentioned lack of 3G on TMO might want to take a look at their network plans: http://gigaom.com/broadband/t-mobile-pounds-the-first-nail-in-2gs-coffin/

Basically they are planning to roll nearly all 2G over to HSPA+ as well as deploy LTE. This is pretty big news, comparable to network vision in some ways.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Amd4life:
if I could get it on my floor in my building I would switch, personally.

Sprint sucks in my town, and we have wimax(max1.5Mbps) lol

the 3g is closer to 280kbps. only reason I stick is that I can get that slow wimax on the 18th floor of my building. the unlimited really isn't worth it, off you can't use it lol

we won't get lte until late 2013/2014, and I'm in the capitol city of California

It's beyond ridiculous the lte rollout schedule.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] lilotimz:
Really? I'm getting 4-10 mbps in the suburbs and holy hell speeds in the downtown. I usually get at least 6+ mbps in the downtown area near the capital building and 1+ mbps on 3g but i'm usually on the ground level when i do these tests. Although there are pretty big spots where 3g is absymal or the maps on sprints website is wrong (freeport from sacramento executive airport to sac city college).

Bay area has NV started already so we should be next cause the norcal market also includes Reno which is a Sprint cash cow. We're a 3rd round market and from what i gather... we should start getting our upgrades in the first quarter of next year.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Itchiee:
I think Clarence Boddicker sums it up nicely.....
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dmonger11b:
Sacramento may be the state capitol but we're still a smaller market than other major cities in the state. When I was in Sacramento for a few days three weeks ago I was running ff18 and I was getting pretty bad wimax speeds in most places and indoors was just horrid especially when I was waiting at SMF. There was occasions I had really good speeds though. Just be happy you even have wimax, you could be in San Diego which according to Sprint's maps only has 3g
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mideastbeast:
Where did you get the info on late 2013/2014? I'm hearing early 2013.

Also I'm on the Sacramento/Elk Grove border and I get 8-10Mb 4G speeds. I got slightly slower when I was in the Natomas area but still much faster than 1.5
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] deolol:

1. From Terminal Emulator type "su" to gain root permissions.

2.	echo 'AT+EGMR=1,7,"Type your IMEI here"' >/dev/pttycmd1

3. Press enter and reboot.

Can anyone confirm?

What have you done to change your ime
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Karavasileiadis:
I have't done anything to the phone yet, I will flash a different ROM soon and from my research I find that once people flash a ROM their IMEI might change which then impairs the phone from connecting to a network.

I want to be prepared in case I need to restore my IMEI. I have read of way that you can back up the efs folder and this is something I am investigating.

But, I want to have a back up plan in case I need something more.

Do you know of the above process? I have seen you tube videos and it seems to work, although I am unaware if this will work on my Galaxy S3.

Can you or anybody else confirm if they know this process to have worked?

Hello

I tried searching, but as drivers move forward, so does performance. So i am confused.

I want a tablet, but i dont know what to get. A second hand Huawei MediaPad, or Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0..

So, i put it like this, i want GPU power, but i dont know what is best? Adreno 220 266Mhz or the old SGX 540 clocked at 384Mhz? I am going to play some games on it, like asphalt 7 and real racing series. (Hoping soon for a third version).
