[AT&T HTC One (M7)] raqball:
Do people not research a phone before they buy it anymore?

A simple search and / or watching a few of the early video reviews would have shown the button layout and how they function..

It makes NO sense (pun intended) to me that people buy a phone knowing it's features, or lack thereof, then throw tantrums on an internet forum over them..

:eek: :confused:
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] nikufellow:
^^^ fair enough ;)
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] gunnyman:
Know why App developers haven't implemented menu buttons in their apps? Samsung phones have menu buttons.

:D I don't care for the lack of a menu button myself, and long press on the back button would have made sense to include.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] whitetiger_0603:
If you really wanna fix it without rooting, get a different launcher like Nova, Apex or Go. All of them are customizable, down to gestures to use for functions that a 3rd button could provide.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] graffixnyc:
I'm running the renovate rom from the international forums and it has an option to make long press of the back into menu which gets rid of the menu bar :)

You don't have to, it's automatic. It just picks the best available network.

Settings -> More... -> Mobile networks -> Network mode -> LTE (preferred)

That's the only option available (it will connect in LTE when available)

I don't think that you are able to access that menu. The selection is done automatically as mentioned above. You can however check what bands are supported by your phone by going into the dialer and then dialling: *#*#SERVICE#*#*

and pressing on "configuration"

Is your XZ C6602 or C6603? C6602 doesn't provide LTE support.

Sometimes you have to ask your mobile provider to enable LTE access. I had to call em before it worked. Just switching to LTE preferred will be enough.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LitoNi:
You need a correct lte sim card provided by your carrier.

Your plan must support lte data.

Your apn settings have to be correct lte settings.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sweetandsoursauce:
So I took a screenshot of my Xperia Z(c6603) of the list of currently available radio bands. I've read somewhere that LTE_BC1 is 2100MHz frequency(which my phone has LTE_BC1,3,5,7 etc) and so by looking at the list my phone is missing that frequency radio band to have LTE enabled. How would I unlock the 2100 MHz radio band frequency so I can enable LTE on my Xperia Z?

good morning all. just this morning I opened my pocket pc as usual and found myself with the screen to be aligned. I followed instructions for dozens of time, and it continues to ask for alignment. It seems to be frozen at this stage. I charged the battery, changed for another battery etc start soft boot, still frozen on the align screen.

Anybody a better idea to solve this problem rather to throw away this equipment. :cry:

I have a second question: anybody has encontered serious problems in keeping the equipment firm in the palm of the hand. Both sides are very slipery. Any solution to improve this? :idea:

I was thinking to stick the rubber cover of some double razors(not mentioning the brand here but they are blue or green) :wink:

I found it by chance! I positioned the stylus on each cross and it opened. I can not recall how I did the first time I started. The stylus does not indicates where the cross must move on the screen, but it is rather, the cross which indicates where to press the screen! :D

Thanks anyhow.

install and use PHM software

you can find an application to align the screen: you will able to use the programme that you can see when you switch on the device for the first time, but without perform an hard reset !!! :lol:

[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rodrigorajao:
I just rooted my Nexus10, and the process was painful. That made me think: why can't Nexus devices come rooted from factory? Why is Google so afraid I'll screw up my device?

I've been working with PCs for 20 years and there's no such a thing as a locked unrooted PC. I'm free to delete every system file and FUBAR the damn thing, always have been. Same thing for other gadgets (my dad's Moov GPS comes to mind).

Why are tablets and smart phones so special that I have to jump through several hoops to get them to do what I want??
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tsmith9191:
I agree I wish I could chose to buy my nexus device rooted. I would guess maybe because how new devices such as smart phones and tablets are manufacturers are afraid of ppl messing up their device. Also PCs have system files and folders hidden by default. Only a somewhat tech savvy individual would know to enable this feature as well as tweak the registry in order to mess with them.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rodrigorajao:
You can still hose a PC without messing with hidden files.

If OEMs are worried about dealing with more tech support calls, RMAs, and warranty issues, and their costs going through the roof, just do what PC OEMs do: software warranty is significantly shorter than hardware warranty.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tsmith9191:
I affirm.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pingguo:
Calm down, this is a once-in-a-lifetime thing (device lifetime). :silly:
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] SysAdmNj:
So far not blown away by this device. Blink is a bit limited. I think I prefer flipboard or scope. Havent really played with the camera yet, will do this weekend. Performance is really not much better than the hox. I'll use this for the week I guess and see comparisons between this and the sgs4. This screen is smaller than the nexus 4 also, some apps look smaller. I think the sgs4 will have a bigger screen and similar remote control? Anyone else not super impressed thus far?
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] eallan:
Not too impressed with mine either. Buttons are absolutely horrible, build quality isn't blowing me away either. Might stay with my nexus 4 and it's sane button arrangement
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] SysAdmNj:
Im with you there. I had them both side by side and the nexus screen didnt look that bad. Are you considering the galaxy s4 at all?
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] peepap20:
I went to att today and looked at the htc one not impressed at all. My note 2 screen looked just as good plus I know the battery life is better so I passed on it. The s4 will be the better buy if you have to buy a new phone for change.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] raqball:
Interesting thread with all the posts talking about the great and mighty S4, that I might add is not even out yet... LOL

The things that make you go hummmmmm..

Does anyone in this thread actually have the HTC One? I ask because your comments are night and day different than what I see with the One
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] YoungAceAtlanta:
I love the remote feature.. it might not let me watch live tv like my provider does but its simple and shows me when my favorite shows are on and recommends me new shows base on my favorites..

HTC Zoe i've been using since i've had the device.. im using the front facing camera more often now then i did on other devices

i plan on buying a S4 so ill have the best of both worlds

---------- Post added at 11:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:35 PM ----------

Its the only phone to really compare it to because the HTC One X+, Xperia Z, GS3, and Nexus 4 are like last year thing and the HTC One is in a class by itself at the moment..
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] raqball:
I understand that but it's comments like the Gnex 4 screen is just as good that cracks me up! I have a Nexus 4 and the screens are night and day different!

I sold my Note 2 last week and that screen is no where even close to the One's screen..

Sometimes I enjoy threads like this as they make me giggle! I view XDA as entertainment for the most part.. LOL
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] YoungAceAtlanta:
Nexus 4 screen was horrible if you ask me.. and i was coming from a HTC One X when i bought my Nexus 4..

Nothing compares to this screen tho.. its like apples to oranges , peaches n plums
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] SysAdmNj:
Hey , when you calibrate the nexus 4 screen in can look good :D

I like how the display shows more on the nexus 4 thats all.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] eallan:
I'm not impressed with the s4 either, I wanted am xperia z but it was too late with a bad display. I've got a note 2 so the s4 is nowhere near enough of an upgrade and touch wiz is a nightmare

---------- Post added at 11:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:15 PM ----------

The nexus 4 display is just fine, it's a much better ratio as well
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] SysAdmNj:
Yea nexus 4 screen isnt its weakest con. I think the battery and camera are worse. But I'm surprised how good the remote control worked better than my 3 remote controls I usually have to use. That note2 was a little too big and heavy but its next iteration I heard may be aluminum. It may be worth waiting for that.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] raqball:
Agree! I really liked the Note 2 but had to put a different launcher on to disguise TW..

The Nexus 4 has a nice screen but it's nowhere close to the One screen..

The only thing I like about my Nexus is the quick updates direct from Google.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] tehdef:
Yeah...you're a liar.I had a cm10.1 hox on linaro and this screams...go away...troll
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] aimetti:
Yep I have both phones. Guy is out if his mind. The one is better in every way except straight updates from Google.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] eallan:
It seems a few of us disagree with you.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] HRodMusic:
the phone is great but i feel that sense slows it down =/ i got my phone today renewed my contract with an early upgrade paid almost 500, and now im slightly regretting it.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] holtenc:
Shouldn't be stuck on stock Sense for long. I think once someone gets an AOSP-based 4.2 ROM up and running smoothly the One will be good to go.

Here's to hoping the so-called bootloader blunder will continue for a while to attract some good developers. If HTC shuts it down then this device will more or less suck compared to Nexus 4. ( just my opinion, AOSP > all OEM skins and is more important (to me) than hardware specs)
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] Silellak:
I'm usually the first one to criticize Sense, but I haven't felt like it's slowing down this phone at all. There's the occasional jerky animation, usually just when adding widgets in the launcher, but that's about it.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] HRodMusic:
thats what i mean animations are a bit jerky, like the dropdown menu is a bit delayed, hard to explain lol
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] gunnyman:
Unless you're using pie controls the menu bar takes up as much screen as the nav buttons.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] Bigjim1488:
I usually only notice this when something is either updating or installing in the background. If that's the case every phone I have had has done that.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] SysAdmNj:
I didnt mention cm once. I used the hox stock and then the one stock. I'm glad youre impressed then. How about easy with the insults kid.

I guarantee I'm not the only one that feels like this. Out of my mind? Maybe ;)
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] SysAdmNj:
Oh and the home and back buttons arent the most responsive I've used. They are actually delayed sometimes.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] nugzo:
I think the cm mention and point was in reference to speed. He had a hox with cm which is faster than hox with sense yet the ONE is still much faster.. I Have a hox, hox+ and they dont come close imo as far as speed and performance. night and day difference One wins. and its basically stock (thats how i disagree, i wouldnt call you a liar lol)
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] Silellak:
Yeah, I have to agree. My One XL on CM10.1 flies, but it still pales compared to the One running Stock. Color me impressed.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] shawman:
I bought the One over the GS4 because of 2 things.

1. Essentially the same internal hardware, where it matters. USA MODELS Quad core, 1080P screen, Camera's are both good enough for me.

2. THe HTC One is the most beautiful phone this side of the iPhone, when I had my GS3 and went to the AT&T store (I forget why) and I held the iPhone I loved the feel.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] SysAdmNj:
Anything is faster with cm and a good kernel :D

One definitely wins but I did not see a wow difference.

Probably going back to my nexus 4 as it was fine for now, and it runs cm and franco :)
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] ekerbuddyeker:
I checked out the One a number of times and decided to wait for the G4. I really want HTC to be successful with the device... but for me I'm so used to a bigger screen. I might have been able to get over that but I travel and the replaceable battery is a deal killer for me.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] eallan:
Mine actually don't work very well at all. Just super disappointed with the entire button system.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] daddioj:
whats wrong with you people? this is easily the best phone HTC put out period i am loving every second of if the screen is gorgeous. nexus 4 screen dark garbage. even calibrated. i had every phone known to man from the s2- note 2 to every phone in between even iphones. this thing is well crafted . this is just my opinion on the phone feel free to jump down my throat lol. and to the response on the buttons. its a software thing. b/c on the later international roms. that issue was not there. i am sure it will be fixed. and the S4 still laggy in some areas really? with there 1600 processors. and who ever says sense 5 makes this phone slow. ugh go back to a flip phone please. lol some people are just never satisfied

I myself am not in love with the phone...I will admit the speakers and screen are amazing though...since I unlocked I'm kinda stuck with it since I can't return it...hoping it grows on me...but I did have the one x and this phone definitely blows that one out of the water...but most of all the android phones I've had have been galaxy lines...I guess I'm just used to samsungs...but will give HTC props for making a very nice phone..
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] eallan:
I'm not satisfied because it's just stupid decision making that's making this phone less than it could be.

There is no good reason on earth to have only 2 (bad) capacitive buttons.

There is no reason for some of the bad ideas in sense.

The phone may have cool construction, but there are just some idiotic things that drive me crazy.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] daddioj:
put it this way there is no such thing as a perfect phone. no matter who you go there are going to be things you dont like. as far as the buttons go. there not broke. flash a international rom. problem solved. and as far as sense. its fast. great and theres not much wrong with it. but these are just my opinions. if your not happy try the S4.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] NJGSII:
The amount of straw grasping going on in here is amazing. It's almost on the verge of trolling. I did a side by side comparison with my One X and this phone is clearly superior in every way.

In compared to the One X this phone is/has

-Better build quality. I almost don't want to get a case for it because the way it feels in the hand is something that no previous android device ever that I have owned has come close to offering a similar experience.

- Better screen. This is noted with small icons that not zoomed on the One X are blurry, this phone the same icons in google now are clear as day. I thought at such PPI levels this would be very minimal, but I was wrong. Even reading text on screen is almost as if you're reading it on a piece of photo paper

-Much better performance that is definitely a noticeable improvement and that's with the One X still being very capable.

- More features in it that are mostly not gimmicks. I find a lot of the stuff on there that I will keep on using even after owning the phone for a while.

-The camera despite not having the resolution is better especially on the low light front. Using no flash in a darker room the One was able to take a picture and you could clearly make out what was in it. The same attempt on the One X had the same room shrouded in darkness with myself unable to make out anything in it.

- The idle battery life is astounding with the radio and wifi enabled. I did a test overnight testing the drain over 7 hours on both phones. The One only lost 2% while the One X lost 5% in the same conditions. Battery for my usual use is more than adequate from the 2300mah.

-The remote function while a bit tedious to setup works flawlessly once you go through the process. The only one it didn't find was for my sound system, but because it was that and not a TV!. Once I used the remote for the sound system and programed it to the phone, once again it works perfectly fine.

Now there is no such thing as a perfect device and I can understand that not everyone is going to like things the way I do, but some of the criticisms in here are just absurd and asinine. On top of that none of the criticisms even have at least a decent reasoning behind them.

I am trying to use a Straight Talk (AT&T) sim card. With the stock AT&T apn settings the phone won't connect to data. Voice calls work fine.

As a result I decided to buy a sim code. How do I apply the sim code? My phone does not request that I enter it. My hunch is that ST with AT&T is too close for it to trigger the unlock code request entry. Thank you.

I had no issues setting up the Straight Talk SIM to work on my ATT phone by setting the appropriate APN settings. Both data and ATT 4g service work fine.

Straight talk doesn't need your att branded phone to be sim unlocked. Same network. Try it on tmobile, than you'll understand why sim unlock is necessary for many, especially when traveling.
