I feel the same way as well. Due to high demand, they don't want to sell it at the discounted price (which they are promoting themselves).

The list price is still the same as when i ordered (40,890). They still claim to ship it in 2 business days, if you order now.

http://www.snapdeal.com/product/htc-one/1370637?pos=6;9

The coupon code "ELX6" that i used to get a Rs. 2453 discount is still pasted all over the website. So, anyone can still place an order for 38.4k but don't expect to actually get the phone, as i can tell from my first hand experience.

Is there an online link for the consumer forum? It's nearly impossible to take time out of work and travel (locally) during weekdays for me.

Doble dip flip case!!

Anyone who is planning to go for double dip flip case - I would recommend NOT to go for it!!

After using it for little more than a week now - i notice lot of drawbacks in it. Only advantage is its premium design - not making the phone bulky and it's stylish look.

- Not a perfect fit to Phone and device is very loose

- Microphone hole is not properly aligned - in simple words, you cannot make calls when the phone is in the case.

- Dont think it is durable because more you bend the back, the impact is more and it is easily dameagable.

So think and decide fellas!!

how is ROCK Elegant Side Flip case ?? is one handed operation is possible by folding the back side ?? or it will be very difficult to operate ?
[One (M7) General] mohit_delhi:
This has become a practice by snapdeal to take order & cancel later, it has nothing to do with HTC one or it's price. What they do is earn interest for 2 weeks or so for which they make the consumer wait & then cancel order themselves sighting non-availability as a reason.

Just imagine how much money they are earning this way without fulfilling orders.

You should write about this on their facebook page(if they have any) and also at forums.

[One (M7) General] rockyseenu:
This is exactly the situation of my battery life too :(

I am still not sure how others are getting 6+ hours screen on time :rolleyes:

I am always on WIFI, (Gsm only), 1 hour of music, 30 mins of gaming, 30 mins of browsing, 50 text messages, Active sync enabled, exchange smart sync enabled.

Greenified all unwanted apps.

I am getting around 15 to 18 hours of battery life with 2.5 hours of screen on time!! that's it!!
[One (M7) General] mrigoo:

[One (M7) General] Bl3H:
Bah

Guess I'll have to wait for the cover to arrive.

I have another query.

When I go to settings and then apps, there are all these apps in the all tab that are supposedly running(have the option of force stop). Now, do I go into these and do a force stop for all of them or should I force stop for downloaded apps and games only? How much battery do u think these things drain out.

P.S auto-syncing ( is it the same as active sync ? ) is a huge NO-NO for good battery life !

Hey guys...the 'audio' in the 'beats audio' printing on the back of my ONE has faded away partially ! is it enough to ask for a replacement ?

my bill date is 27-05-13 ..
[One (M7) General] rkial:
Not sure.. it is removable.. a bit of nail polish remover and the whole thing can come off..

I'd like it better without the beats branding anyway..

Is the rest of the phone fine? any gaps at all?
[One (M7) General] zyryn:
Zero gaps ....

But I don't use a case and screenguard ( never did on my previous phones too )...and my screen on the ONE managed to get 7-8.scratches....visible mainly in sunlight or bright indoors...so not a big deal and not in normal usage . ...but my previous Samsung phones didn't ever get scratched...or atleast I never noticed any...

Any comments on this ?

What else should I check for ?.

I think I have a goodd piece ..but the replacement thing is tempting ;-p
[One (M7) General] rkial:
Oh.. I can understand why you'd want a replacement now :p

Dont think scratches or the beats branding fading qualifies the phone for a DOA..

You can call them and ask over the phone.

Check of dead pixels. 3 or more qualifies you for a DOA too.. I have none...

Have a tiny gap along the top but it doesnt overhang.. actually a bit recessed under the plastic band.. dont feel it.. and never see the phone from the top is normal use.

No scratches on my phone.. I do have a screen protector though.. no case.
[One (M7) General] Raven'sSight:
You do not get replacements for usage wear and tear. It was not Defect On Arrival !!!

As for scratches, GG is scratch RESISTANT and not scratch PROOF as reiterated in so many places.

One of my colleagues thought the same about his GS1, that it did not scratch. I spoiled it for him by making him notice the umpteen number of micro scratches that his phone had.

U need : :D

1. Dark Room

2. A torch light

3. A switched off phone with GG that did not have screen guard.

Now lock the screen and put light on it from the side at a pretty high acute angle. You will find so many of small little irritating scratches that escape normal vision and are mostly caused by dust grains, thank our outdoors and our weather for that !

BTW, did you guys checkout the new Gmail app. It, finally, in sync with the new UI layout that Google seems to be following.

Also, How is the screen guard that comes with the Nilkin Shield case ? Is it good enough as the main screen guard ? Does the screen guard scratch easily (using the SPG ultra oleophobic currently on my S2 and it has hardly scratched after 2 years ) ? I am weighing

between a Nilkin Shield (with screen guard) @ 899 and a casemate barely there for @695.

Quick responses for both the cases please :D
[One (M7) General] rkial:
The gmail app looks neat.. and its pretty good too.

About the case.. If I'm getting one, I think it'll be the double dip. I like the look of it.

CaseMate and Nillkin dont cover the top and bottom of the phones.. just the back.. That is good because it shows some of the beauty... but the chamfered edge is more likely to get damaged than the silver back.

If I'm putting a cover on, it should cover the top and bottom parts as well as the back...
[One (M7) General] shree.cse:
Mate, check your wake locks, when ever the stats of my device shows as 2 hours of held awake time, I never got 3+ hours of screen on time. Which rom r u on? To get the best battery life, try ordroid 6.4.x Rom with elementalX 0.11 kernel.
[One (M7) General] mathen:
mine too,its Indian version
[One (M7) General] shree.cse:
I'm not sure, some have 1.29.720.4 and some have 1.29.707.4. Earlier HTC devices only used to have x.x.720.x version no for Indian devices. May be u people are lucky to have x.xx.707.x version no, it might bring u updates soon than x.x.720.x as your version no is same as Asian WWE.
[One (M7) General] dvsk69:

[One (M7) General] satfun123:
Stock ROM, always online via 2G and via Wifi for 1.30hr, chat via yahoo messenger, wechat, whatsapp, abt 1.15hr music, 30min browsing via chrome, played templerun 2 for 15min, tested poweramp app for 10min and then uninstalled, downloaded apps via 2G(takes 45min), youtube for 25min, 2hr once refreshing blinkfeed, taken couple of shot using camera, messaging...

Thanks it... Advice welcome
[One (M7) General] shree.cse:
Try using greenify app, hibernate your unused apps. My usage is almost same as yours except I won't download apps on battery, cause it drains a lot, keeps ur phone awake and I only have 2g, so no use of YouTube. If u don't mind unlocking ur bootloader, install ordroid with elementalx kernel, which really adds at least 2 hours of screen on time.
[One (M7) General] satfun123:
used youtube when im in wifi...

so my battery drains fastly of my usage?

btw takes almost 20 to 25min to reach 100% after 99% of charging.... anyone facing same thing?
[One (M7) General] vinaymieux:
I bought the Nillkin case (with free screen protector) from eBay and the screen protector that comes with it is pretty neat. It's a nice tight fit, which I love, extremely easy to apply with no bubbles what so ever. Have been using it since a week now... I always use a screen protector since my screen tends to get very greasy with lots of calls.. And I rub it vigorously against my shirt or jeans to clean. No scratches on the protector till now doing that. Although it does kill the fun of the real glass feel... But then again I guess every plastic screen protector does! Does SGP have an oleophobic plastic one for the One also?

Hit Thanks if I've helped you.
[One (M7) General] zyryn:
hmmm....lol...guess ill hav to live wid my current piece then !

lol....dam, i was hoping tht audio label could qualify as DOA :p..i obviously know tht scratches dont qualify !

bro, i know about micro-scratches....but they really werent visible on the galaxy phones...n i never used a screen guard on any of them...im just saying that im 100% sure that the screens on the galaxy phones were more scratch-resistant thn the ONE's screen...atleast for me !!

and i hate screen protectors as they kinda dont give u the same feel of that touchscreen u paid for and over time they collect dust and may become mucky and not smooth to use !

hey i thought the back button was a bit unrepsonsive at the start...but then i realized tht it is perfectly responsive, but the area of responsiveness for touch, is just over the back icon and hardly around it....so i used to keep missing it ! gotten used to it now !

also, in certain areas like the stock app drawer, back doesnt take u to home...

if this is still not the case, then i think it may be a hardware defect on your phone !! not sure though !

guys, do any custom roms have mods to increase the surface area for touch repsonse for these buttons ???
[One (M7) General] shree.cse:
No it doesn't drain much when u use it with WiFi.

Yes I have the same issue, it even took 30mins but still @ 99%. I don't think it was an issue, as our batteries are yet to be calibrated completely.
[One (M7) General] :
Mine took long time to reach 100% and in the first few days the charging was super slow but with time it has improved earlier it wad noticeable that phone was taking too much time to charge but now i can say it takes normal time . 2~ hours to charge fully .
[One (M7) General] shree.cse:
I'm talking about the time it's taking from 99 to 100%. Rest was as u said, normal. But I remember the first full recharge, it took around 5 hours.

Guys.. I am going burst everyone's balloon full of this super excitement of discussing HTC One in this particular thread.

There are individual threads for cases, issues, roms, QnA, bootloaders etc.. I suggest we use those as our resources before coming here and posting "HELP ME NAO"

My understanding of this thread is that it is to facilitate Indian members of XDA who wish to buy the phone. Ideally, I would expect all those who have bought the phone to then head out to other threads for information.

So, lets just discuss the prices, where to get, what to look for when buying the device :) as this thread was meant to do..

Bought a Black HTC One from Croma last weekend. Got it for 40,800 ( additional 5% cashback on SBI cards, to get credited later)...

I had to open a total of 4 phones to get a piece I liked - was surprised that the sales guy (a really nice person) allowed this.

First piece had chamfered and rough edges on the top - was easy to convince the sales guy

Second piece had a scratch with the paint missing on a small area on the lower right edge of the device - sales guy agreed as well

Third piece has slight chamfered and the volume buttons were not completely inline with the rest of the side - took some convincing for him to agree

The fourth piece (I believe I wouldn't be allowed more anyway) came out nice, no rough edges, almost zero panel gap and I agreed to take it.

I had checked the screen on last three of the above devices and had found no dead pixels.

The phone I picked up has a Sharp Panel and a FA35GW serial.

In general the silver pieces (demo pieces across multiple stores) seem to have better finishing that black ones.

After the few days of usage, I am quite happy with the device.

charging issue

battery life is fine with my htc one. i'm facing an issue while charging though.

after reaching 90% it takes ages to charge till 99% and then it stops. it doesn't charge to 100% no matter how long i wait :(

is anyone facing the similar issue? is there any way to sort this out?
