[AT&T HTC One (M7)] txsizzler:
The following is my thoughts on our (my wife and I) newly acquired HTC One phones. Thoughts regarding the big, glaring problem would be appreciated.

In the past week and a half, I found two killer deals on the HTC One (64gb) models, which I bought for my wife and I (second hand). At only $280 a piece, how could I pass it up??

Both my wife and I really love the look of these phones. Ours are matching silver models, running stock (Sense 5.0, Android 4.3) on Straight Talk using the AT&T SIMs. The beautiful aluminum finish, gorgeous 1080p 4.7" screen, BoomSound, and the best Sense UI ever! Fast too; the Snapdragon 600 and 2gb RAM really make this thing fly! I don't even mind the BlinkFeed, and other bloatware too much. High quality construction just oozes from this device.

After hearing about the amazing "ultrapixel" camera, I was excited about trying out the camera. To my dismay, this camera has been the source of my frustration. On both phones, the main camera refuses to focus. No amount of cleaning, Tap-to-focus, different modes, nor different camera apps have helped with this problem. On my wife's phone, you can gently tap the back of the phone, and it will focus suddenly for a few seconds to a few minutes, before totally unfocusing again. With my phone, no amount of tapping will make it focus at all. The only focus I can get on my phone, is on objects within about 2 feet of the lens (and, no, I an not using the Macro setting in the options, not the video camera focus lock). Further, if there is a low light situation, there is a lot of "blue noise"that gets into the picture. The front facing camera is fine, though.

I have Googled this problem, and it seems to be a pretty common problem (camera blurriness/bad low light conditions). HTC has acknowledged this problem to some degree, saying a software patch will be released soon. This problem has been ongoing since the phone was released, though, and I just don't think HTC gives a damn.

Any thoughts on this? Except for the camera, this is a fantastic device! So utterly disappointed with the camera, that I an considering just selling it, and getting a different phone. Help would be appreciated!
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] Valdeck:
Sorry to hear your issue. I can say at least for me I do not have the camera issues your describing. Perhaps the camera issues were why they sold the phone.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] txsizzler:
Perhaps, but there is ALOT of folks out there with camera issues. HTC has admitted in varying stages that there are issues with the camera, but yet they have done really NOTHING to fix them.

In my humble opinion, I believe this is a hardware defect. Defect, as in many, many from the factory line were pushed with this issue. My thinking is, is that there is some kind of focusing mechanism piece in the lens setup, that is either getting hung up on something, or was made with such poor quality, that its either breaking, or just simply not doing its function. This thought is based on my wife's phone, as I can knock the back of the phone near the lens, and all of a sudden it will work for a bit.

Of course, this isn't the case on all the HTC phones, which makes me think something is just getting hung up in the hardware lens piece. I would bet that is why HTC doesn't want to recall all those phones, as they made it nearly impossible to open up the phone (I am sure its a royal b*tch for them to get into as well!). Plus, with their less than stellar track record, this would only serve up to hurt their reputation more, and show how vulnerable the "ultrapixel" camera really is.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] Valdeck:
I know the blue tint is a acknowledge issue but your case is the first I have heard about focusing issues. Either way I do hope you can get it fixed. I would imagine it is still under manufactures warranty so try with att or by contacting htc

Hi! Community

Well, My sister's L7X (Known as well as L7 II P710 or P714) display got broken, and I'm not sure if the L7 II models use the same screen, i.e. the L7 II Dual P715

They can use the same Display? or do I have to buy specificaly the same display model.

Thanks in advance! :laugh:

Hey,

I wanted to know if any of your are experiencing the same thing I did. I just purchase the Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 Edition White 16gb and received it in a package that you can easily tamper. It was not taped shut. The package itself for the product has both seals broken. I took out the product, it seems to have not been touched.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] PheneoN:
Can you return it and ask for an replacement. It Doesn't sound legit how they sold the device to you.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] ImportXTC66:
Yeah I just called them for a replacement. They are going to send me one for 1 day delivery so it should be here tomorrow. I am just really upset with them right now because I have been waiting for the device. I was just wondering if other people that have purchased the tab from Amazon got a broken sealed tablet.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] madsquabbles:
a lot of people complained about this with lasr year's note. I forgot what amazons reason was. mine came sealed.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] john10101:
i got a 16gb black shipped from bestbuy and seals were in tact.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] ChrisNee1988:
My cousin ordered one off amazon and the seal was broken. Half his screen did not function and the home button was busted. Luckily, he was able to get a replacement.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] ImportXTC66:
Thanks guys for responding. I thought it was uncommon. I guess its not. My replacement just shipped out. Hopefully the seal isn't broken again...:(
[Themer General Discussion] Maurice5813:
Hey, I wanted to ask, anyway to set themer themes as default? Like for Rom developers, with most cm and AOSP roms we can set a theme as default so when a user flashes the rom, that theme is already set. Is this possible with themer?
[Themer General Discussion] dj_mol3y_x8:
You would not be able to do this as you need a code from themer for this to work so if you add themer to a rom when the user installs and boots up for the first time after install all they will see is a screen to sine up

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Adan_Jr:
Hello, I bought a used phone from eBay, like the ones on this section, but I want to root it, I'm not sure what would brick this phone, my problem is that when I boot it up, it says it's a US Cellular SCH-R760, same thing with the "about phone" section of the settings.

But, the battery cover says it's a Sprint phone, and taking off the battery reveals a sticker with the model being SPH-D710. :confused:

Did somebody root it? I tried using root checker and it said "Negative"

If I were to root it, what phone would I take the files from?

Thank you, and sorry if this is in the wrong section.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bilgerryan:
Wow... That's a new one. I would try Framaroot so you don't flash the wrong files. Sounds like you got a refurbished phone of some sort, or somebody took the motherboard from the US Cellular and slapped it into a Sprint body. I personally world trust Settings/About Phone over the sticker tho. Which means you'll have to run a converter. Is your phone activated? Do you have a carrier?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Adan_Jr:
Yes, I'm using Page Plus, everything works, I just get about 2/3gish speeds.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bilgerryan:
Did you flash it to Page Plus or was it already flashed?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Adan_Jr:
I took it to a store, and some guy I think flashed it for me.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bilgerryan:
Can you take a screenshot of your Settings/About Phone?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Adan_Jr:
Ok, give me a minute.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Adan_Jr:
Here you go.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] patrao_n:
You have a us cellular sch-r760. Whoever tou got it from took the motherboard from the uscellular and put it in the sprint version body. I am not sure if flashing files here would hurt the phone. I do know there is a different website for your phone though. Team us cellular has roms and whatnot for your phone. Unsure of the exact web address sorry. Google will help though. Goodluck
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bilgerryan:
And it's still on GB...eek, yeah I don't think anybody but a couple people can help you out. [MENTION=4654764]diceman1000[/MENTION] and [MENTION=5222339]ps3hacker3[/MENTION] might be able to help if I remember right.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] diceman1000:
The SCH-R760 is the same as the E4GT less the 4G. Thou should be able to glass any E4GT ROMs, AOSP, NOT STOCK? And they should work. You'll have to use Handcent or GoSMS and manually put in your PP APNs in order for MMS to work though.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] micmars:
Check out Buckleberry on the team us cellular site. Master of inversions. Only inverted Skydrive I ever found. Makes good roms, too. You have some good devs over there. You should have no problem finding what you need.

Wow how did i not see this sorry guys but yes the E4GT and the uscc verion of the SCH-R760 are the exact same phone without 3g and its kind of weird cause i have recently taken mine apart to look at the motherboard lol and noticed that the motherboard has stickers for the SCH-R760 but there is one portion of the phone up in the top right side of the motherboard that has a sticker for the SPH-D710 which is the sprint variant lol (my phone is brand new as well when i got it no one else has had mine to switch counterparts it came like that weirdest ive seen lol) and like he said before both phones can run both sets of roms feel free to flash anything in store for the sph-d710 onto our uscc version in the exception of completely stock odin files of course

It looks more like a corrupt photo or something like that. Try doing a backup WITHOUT photos and see if it does a backup.

Then, if it does a successful backup without the photos, try and move most of the photos out and do a backup with a few photos in there to see if it's reading the directory correctly. If it does, then you have a bad photo or file. If it doesn't, I'd suggest deleting all the content (after manually copying the photos) and then trying again with a new set of pictures you've taken.
