knew it all along. you're right, pal. but the itch to have it in hands ASAP drove me to pre order from Handtec. Now that Handtec says that their next batch of stock is not going to be available before next week, i just cant wait for them anymore. I'd rather wait for HTC India to launch it here and get it with an Indian warranty.
[One (M7) General] amankapoor4:
I remember Htc One X also had a printed price of 41,990 or 42,990 and i was able to get it for 36,990. So if we apply the same rule i think we should be able to get HTC one for around 38-39k, which is a very good price. Days of XZ in my hands is limited :D
[One (M7) General] joslicx:
you can also elucidate how you got HOX for that kind of price. Generally HTC phones are badly priced and street prices are not much different from MRPs (just like Sony)

By the way in UK HTC One and Sony XZ have almost same price (sim free version). I wish HTC had priced it similarly in India (so MRP around 39k).
[One (M7) General] amankapoor4:
On the contrary HTC Prices are nothing close to MRP, just like Samsung. Atleast in Bangalore and Delhi.
[One (M7) General] joslicx:
Any particular place in Bangalore? I bought my last phones (HTC Sensation and HTC Radar) online but online prices are not much different from MRP. Just look at Butterfly's price on flipkart!
[One (M7) General] shree.cse:
But it was different with eBay.in!
[One (M7) General] amankapoor4:
Butterfly was a disaster in every aspect. I usually buy phones from a small shop in Marathalli and he gives a very good price.

Or yes you can buy from ebay.in, the weekend 7.5% discount code with no higher limit, so even if it is 40000, you will get around 3000 discount ;)
[One (M7) General] PG101:
Hows that? I use it and it's quite a phone.. I haven't seen a more comfortable 5in screen on any device ;)

I returned my phone yesterday(DOA)..and he gave me a cash note for 41k..and after that he told me, " Sir only 3 Silver boxes are left".

One of the boxes was from the same lot which I had rejected few days back..since the plastic cover wasn't there..and when i told him to open the remaining two boxes he refused..he said sir if tomorrow a customer asks for a sealed pack..i won't have any..so i'l let you open only one box right now..

The box he opened had no gap on the bottom..but on the top i could insert my finger nail inside that gap..so i said refused to take that phone..and now i will have to wait for new stock.. :( :(

And according to the employees there..Reliance hasn't received any stock for HTC One in the past two weeks.. :( :(
[One (M7) General] fatekills:
They may b lying.. Call to other reliance stores and check if they hav the stock, if they do u can demand these ppl to get stock from those stores. What was the stock serial number which had gap ??

Black is also not available ?
[One (M7) General] sarathsnair:
Sometimes the light on the back and home button not working sometimes it will work. is this is a common issue ?
[One (M7) General] UCFour:
Yup its common

During day times when there's enough light around back n home buttons wont light up

If u wanna check..cover the proximity sensor with ur hand and they should light up
[One (M7) General] Saket_k:
Same thing happened with me when i got the phone , i thought there is some problem with the button but after two days use i realized it's the sensor just like you said above. :cool:
[One (M7) General] UCFour:
haha even i got worried for a little..

As most of the i stay indoors..i noticed it very lately after 3 weeks of having my phone..

later i figured out that it was not a problem :D

Very much relieved !!! as our mobiles are from US..its very tough to get them repaired if there's any problem
[One (M7) General] amolbali:
I don't think so..the manager has been very helpful till now.. And he called other stores also..and there were 2 black pieces available in Gurgaon store..but then i would had to pay 3-4k extra since the cash note is for Rs 41k only..and the price today is abt 43.5-45k in NCR.. :( :(

And they hadn't received any black model for the past two weeks..i called the store before going there..for the black model..and the person at the store told me that few silver pieces were available..but not black..

And serial number was HT35..May 2013..for both the defective phones..didn't get to open the third phone.. :P

And i'm waiting till 16th June( 2 Tuesdays - Stock day)..after that will ask my dad(army officer) to come and fight with me..in my experience..no one says no to my dad.. :P :D :P

Pop sound comes from speaker during calls

hey guys! I bought my htc one (silver) on 1 July. The date of manufacture on the box says June 2013. I managed to get it for 42k.. S/N - FA36KW904153

During calls I hear a pop sound coming from the speaker. It happens randomly. Should I go for doa? Is there a newer version available without the problem.

PS: I have read the prev pages and seen others face the problem. I wanted to know if June stock is the latest or if another version is available in silver..

oh n I LOVE THIS PHONE!!! :D
[One (M7) General] fatekills:
Thats a common problem.. i got DOA for Crackling sound from speaker yest.. not sure what all issues will the new one have.. and ya there is no new stock, the stock which u are having is new, but there may b some phone without any issues. it all depends on ur luck :P
[One (M7) General] sarathsnair:
Does it have any gap issue ?
[One (M7) General] sachinaik:
Why don't you opt for HTC butterfly with the 41k.

Off course it doesn't have Dev support and it has 2020 mah battery... but its got no build quality issues and ithas already got 4.2.2 ota and microsdcard support...

I ordered for HTC One Double Dip hard case.

Until it comes I decided to give One some rest. The gap started to irritate me.
[One (M7) General] amolbali:
Nahh..i wanted either HTC One or Galaxy S4..and now i cn't go for S4..after using HTC One for 10 Days.. :P :D
[One (M7) General] fatekills:
I called that shop guy..he told he has not sent the device which I returned last week bfoz of doa..he is givin reasons telling he will be sendin that to warehouse today and tomorrow he wil get a new piece.
[One (M7) General] sachinaik:
S4 is a menace.

Now note3 also gona use the same ****ty chip set for Indian version.

Sony kidding with customers by playing the game "who packs the ****tiiest display ever in their flagship".

Qualcomm audio chip is not good.

Only HTC is saving us enthusiasts by packing great screen + great processor + seperate audio amplifier which overcomes quietness of S600 :)
[One (M7) General] albert88rules:
Thanks for the info dude.. Is the crackling sound the same as the popping sound? I only seem to be having that pop sound from the speaker if I'm talking to someone (not loudspeaker). Also is there a deadline by when I need to submit DOA?
[One (M7) General] fatekills:
I guess it's same..can u post a sample so that I can see If mine is also having dame issue..hmmm doa is valid for 5 days
[One (M7) General] fatekills:
Guys having recessed power button. can u please post a pic of that !!
[One (M7) General] alappancholi:
Like you said its a common problem.

Even after DOA u r bound to hear the crackling sound.

My previous handset had the same problem like albert88rules said, a random crackling sound and it still exists in the replacement handset ... I have also seen the same thing on my friends HTC one and on his sisters ONE as well ...

I suppose its the downside of having an amplifier for the speakers in a phone ...

But u can still take the advantage of DOA and try another handset ... maybe u wont get that same problem in the new handset.

P.S. the crackling sound issue has bee fixed after the update or so sum1 on the 4.2.2. general thread claims ... i posted that guys comment yesterday ....
[One (M7) General] sarathsnair:
i saw in many unboxing videos the htc one box contains a couple of htc logo stickers. i didnt get anything like that. does the indian version not contain any such stickers ??

Anyone in India got the 4.2.2 update? Apparently, it has started seeding for the International unlocked model and I believe we fall under that umbrella too.
[One (M7) General] UCFour:
4.2.2 update has been rolled out to only some countries like russina,china,taiwan,norway,denmark..

As of now there's nothing for Indian Users
[One (M7) General] albert88rules:

IT says 4.2.2 now seeding globally :)
[One (M7) General] albert88rules:
The prob is that it comes only if I'm speaking to someone (Loudspeaker is OFF). Not sure how to record that :p Also regarding the DOA, what I meant to ask was if I could still go for a DOA 1 or 2 months after buying the phone?
[One (M7) General] alappancholi:
DOA is valid for 14 days from date of purchase.

the DOA certificate u get for replacing ur handset is valid for 5 days from date of issue.

i already ordered this one http://www.flipkart.com/rock-one-es...-case/p/itmdkzqftyhwhfrg?pid=ACCDKZPHBYSGHGXR

how is the one handed operation ?
[One (M7) General] Raven'sSight:
You should not be paying for DOA as told to me by the service center guy. Why take a cash receipt. Should have taken a prepaid bill instead like i did, the 1st time i bought my One.

Crap! Give him a piece of your mind else they will just sit the DOA period of yours.

Same here. I doubt anyone got any stickers.

And photos of recessed power button. The side towards the headphone port looks ok in the photos but if you try to press it, it goes inside till the button works.
[One (M7) General] alappancholi:
this is much better yaar ... the recessed button I had on my silver one was literally flat all along ... i cudnt feel the button at all ... it was as good as a home and back button ... took a lot of effort to turn it on ...
[One (M7) General] fatekills:
Did u get a new piece ??
[One (M7) General] safepacket:
I am not.sure what kind of.stickers are you talking about .I got 3 barcoded stickers inside the box. If if am not wrong it's meant for service.

Help!!! Repairing at htc usa.

I will be sending my 64gb htc one dev edition back for repairing in sanfrancisco to my friend.

Can anyone guide me on how to go ahead for replacement or repairing once the phone reaches US.

Means do he need to visit nearest service centre ( unable to find on htc us site) or just a call to customer care will suffice.

Just in case if anyone has been through this situation!!!!!

HISTORY--

My 10 days old HTC ONE display blacked out without any reason.

Alarm sounds in morning....tried all buttons combos - led flashes / vibrates but no display.

Indian service centre asking huge sum for repairing!! So thinking of sending back.
[One (M7) General] smartboy_anu:
In the US you need to call up the customer care and let them know about your problem along with the phone IMEI.Then you will be asked to ship your device to their service station which is thinkis in Texas.Once they get the device they will go over the problem and let you of any charges that might occur.After its repaired they ship the device back to you. :D

[One (M7) General] MotionlessWhiteRose:

[One (M7) General] Raven'sSight:
Univercell got some black ones only. I want the silver one. Hopefully a near perfect one. Or I keep the One I have which is better than most that I have seen.

You have master and visa for both credit and debit cards. Emi options are available only on credit cards irrespective whether it's visa or master. Basically you will need someone a credit card.

Polite suggestion to all those who want to replace their phone because of gaps: A perfect htc one with zero gap is overrated. The effort required to attain one would outstrip the actual joy of having one.
[One (M7) General] Raven'sSight:
Agree but a recessed power button or cracks on loud speaker noise at not acceptable or even a gap on the back side deserve the replacement.

[One (M7) General] MotionlessWhiteRose:
A power button barely out of the rim. I mean harder to access it. :p
[One (M7) General] uncommonaman:
Recessed power button button is not a deal breaker IMO,you can always flash custom ROM and use volume rocker to lock/unlock your phone. Noise is a issue though. And what do you mean by gap on the back side?:confused:

[One (M7) General] Raven'sSight:
It's your pick really. Whether you want to live with a few faults and stay with the best device or go with something that has disappointed the world. It won't have gaps or speakers popping but neither will it have the boom sound. No gaps but no aluminium either. No lcd3 either. Does not make any sense to me. A soc that has support nothing compared to the s600.better wait & buy a s800 device.

Had to fight for almost 90 mins to get a phone of my choice.. :P :D

The phone(black) that i have now has a small gap only near the power button..rest is fine! :)

The price today at Reliance Digital store was Rs. 45,500.. :P :D

That is almost 5k more than my bill price..(Rs. 40680).. He opened a black box for me..and it was a good set..there was a small gap at the top left and bottom left corner..but there was a dent type of thing near the volume button on the champered edge..so i asked him to open another box for me..at that point of time even he got really frustrated and requested me to either buy something else from the store..or he would have refunded my money..but i didn't wanted that..coz now it would have costed me more.. :P

Then i called the store manager (at 10PM..and the store closes at 9:30PM)..i asked him to let me open one more box..and i promised him that i would buy the better one among the two piece.. After 10-15 mins of discussion he finally allowed me to open one last box..and luckily this one was a good piece.. I finally left the store at 10:30.. :P :D

PS : Now i'm gonna check the phone properly..and in case I find any other fault with the phone..i would go for a DOA tomorrow..and then buy Nexus 4 instead..and gift my parents a home theater system worth 15-20k.. :P :D

Just hoping for the best!! Finger Crossed!! :)

Get the power button or the phone replaced!
[One (M7) General] amolbali:
Is it possible to get the power button replaced?? and if i have to replace my phone then i will buy Nexus 4 only..i have already opened 10-12 boxes..and got only two good phones till now..

I had used my previous HTC One for 10 days..before i noticed a problem with the speaker..had to get it replaced by using a DOA..
[One (M7) General] uncommonaman:
Not sure, go to the service center and ask the service center guys if they can replace it.

What? You got two good phones and you still want to ditch your phone?

And even my one isn't perfect. On low brightness(0-15%), the screen looks yellowish. But that's OK because I use low brightness only during night and that tint helps to reduce the eye strain.
[One (M7) General] amolbali:
Ya..two good phones..incase you don't use the loudspeaker and the power button on your phone.. ;) :D

I haven't decided yet..the phone is charging right now..will do a full test after that..and will decide later whether i should go for a DOA or not..

If i have to replace this phone..i'm damn sure the store manager won't let me check another box..he will refund my money,,in that case Nexus 4 is a good option.. :)
[One (M7) General] uncommonaman:
Don't like the attitude of Indian stores. I had to pay the money first to open the box. The owner was like "sar,customers like sealed boxes" I was like ***** please if I wanted a sealed box, I would have ordered it from Flipkart. I want to check my phone before buying it.

And nexus 4 is good. Stock android, ftw!
[One (M7) General] amolbali:
Ya..seriously..faced the same problem..i wish i was in USA right now..would have opened at least 15-20 boxes.. :P

Will give my parents 15-16k..and buy a Nexus 4 instead..can't trust HTC One if there is another problem with this phone.. :(
[One (M7) General] rakesh595160:
lol previously using samsung s4 for almost a month two times makes a DOA but it was the worst phone i'll ever use dont buy s4 if u are so curious to buy samsung go with note 2 or wait for some months for new note 3...becoz every samsung looks the same.
