Yeah that's probably the only thing that I don't really like on this phone, the LED notification. If it wasn't for the good speakers telling you a notification came in you'd never notice it until you unlock the phone again for whatever reason.

Not the worst thing in the world though.

As for the waterproof, I did see some videos on youtube where they tossed in water and it held up nice enough even though it isn't officially rated as "waterproof". I won't test it out on my own though...:cyclops:

---------- Post added at 06:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:54 PM ----------

I hardly notice the bar anymore...

I also got pretty used to where all the buttons are regardless of the fact that I don't usually press the power button to turn of the screen, just leave it to auto lock. :good:
[One (M8) General] jonny68:
The only thing that annoys me about the M8 is the position of the headphone jack, why oh why did HTC change, it was perfectly fine where it was, Asides from that it's a brilliant phone and worthy contender for phone of the year 2014, although the new One plus one looks a beast and amazing price, but the build quality and boom sound should win it for HTC again.
[One (M8) General] Fraught:
This is definitely something I agree with, the "horrible sleep button" part. I've run my finger over it a few times, and it noticeably sways in place. If you press the edge of your nail on one side of the button, the other side slides upwards, and it just doesn't sit still and feels very loose. Absolutely HATE it. It's going to be hard going for another phone after the M8 though, unless it has similar "Motion Launch Gestures". Even though it's more of just a usage convenience, I'm almost addicted to how great it is to turn the phone on by just tapping on the screen.

Also, the curved back actually feels pretty nice in the hand, but I'd probably like it more if it had a flat back too. That, and if it was less slippery (though I'm trying to look around for a good skin to put on the back so it won't be as slippery). Also, I wish there was like some kind of a separator between the volume up/down buttons (either a gap or a little elevated line), and that you could put a lock screen widget onto your, uhh...home lock screen. Right now, it always open to the default HTC lock screen (unless I'm being stupid and missing something. If someone can point me in the direction of changing that, I'd be really glad), but those are kinda tiny nitpicks.
[One (M8) General] Darkseth:
Not really waterproof but still "waterspray" proof (ip x3).

The S5 is just protected against temporarly in water dives, the Z2 permanent.

Also... the M8 survived 30+ minutes inside a water bowl. and nothing happened on it.

In any halfway realistic scenario, the ip 58/67 will have zero difference. Noone throws his phone into a swimming pool tbh, or goes diving with it.

If i would ever go diving, and wanting to shoot those rare awesome pictures, i would get a professional camera for these moments.
[One (M8) General] Zorachus:
Is the One M8 " water spray proof ". If so that's cool. Would that mean protection against rain drops or light mist ?
[One (M8) General] xxquicksh0txx:
I just replaced my M8, my other one had a loose power button and good volume keys.(wasn't the reason I had it replaced). This one has a perfect power button. Like really. I've never felt a power button this perfect before. And the loosest volume keys ever.... Sigh.

This power button though... There's like no give side to side until you press it. I'm actually amazed.
[One (M8) General] AndroidInsanity:
Jeff Gordon from HTC said so... but I think everyone is too scared to try it lol.
[One (M8) General] PunishedSnake:
Mine only was the HTC bar
[One (M8) General] xxquicksh0txx:
I've never really been worried about getting light rain drops on my phone. The only time I really see it being a problem is when it's pouring. Nothing bad water related has ever happened to any of my phones

---------- Post added at 04:36 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:34 AM ----------

They said it had to be there, two big speakers take a lot of extra room. + the other stuff.

I actually kind of like it... ?

I think I would be pressing on screen keys accidentally all the time
[One (M8) General] Darkseth:

[One (M8) General] bailz2506:
Just under a week with mine. So far I'm extremely happy I left Samsung in the dust. Build quality, feel of the phone in hand, display and speed all trump my past 3 phones. Only fault I can give it is the power button. It still boggles my mind as to why it wasn't placed on the left or on the side and volume keys moved to the other side.

I love that HTC decided to reintroduce external memory and they can be forgiven for not giving us hot swapping of memory/sim cards.

Also after being with Samsung for 3 years I'm glad to see HTC is still developer friendly
[One (M8) General] downwiththebanksters:
I agree with your weight comment. I have a Seidio surface with kickstand case (blue is beautiful, the pictures don't show you the wonderful pearlescent finish, which really pops), a glass screen protector and this unit is HEAVY compared to my feather light S2. Sound was the key driver of my purchase. I bought my wife an M7 for her birthday and have lusted after her speakers ever since. This in my mind outweighed the lackluster camera. The screen is great, but the great thing about this LCD springs from how bad my AMOLED S2 screen was. It has severe screen burn in issues. I was always babying it and worried about turning it off, now with LCD I can use on screen alerts if I want, and leave my screen on for as long as I want.

You are right about KNOX. That killed

ANY

Samsung product for me. Even though I hate begging mommy HTC to give me a code to unlock the device I just paid them $750 for, KNOX is orders of magnitude worse. These are our devices, period. I guess if you live in the dying empire, addicted to an ever deepening credit spiral, carriers may have the right to somehow control the device, and your behaviour, until the end of the contract. However, those of us who do flash occasionally know a new ROM really gives an old device renewed vigour, so the ability to do to our devices whatever we wish is an absolute must over the typical contract period of two years.

Just a slight correction, I don't believe GPE will give updates for an eternity (the impossible to service battery, 2/10 iFixit score tells all you need to know about the inevitable end of life of our device). The GPE ROM update is still provided by HTC, so we are, I believe, at their mercy for however long they see fit to officially support the device.
[One (M8) General] shorty1483:
Only thing that's quite awfull for me is the muscle ache in left arm after holding it in my hand in the morning, cause it's much heavier than my old SGS3 :p
[One (M8) General] Fraught:
Erm. The power button would definitely have a better home on the left side (and it feels really loose on mine, so that bothers me too), but the volume keys are on the right side because if you hold your phone normally, in portrait, you can press them with your thumb. Having owned an iPhone 5 as my previous phone before this one, I did get used to the placement of the volume keys on the left (as just getting used to it is what every one of these "why is button X in position Y" complaints can be explained away with), but I think it's better this way overall. I mean, sure, you can use the volume keys with your pointer or middle finger(s), but using the thumb's easier (at least I think so, and I reckon a lot of other people do too).
[One (M8) General] BerndM14:
Yeah I also like the volume keys where they are. I hold the phone in my right hand so it's much easier, only problem for me though... I'm not entirely used to it yet, I tend to press the volume down button on a frequent basis by accident, it doesn't help that the volume keys are so sensitive either but like you mentioned, it just takes some getting used to. Though I'm not saying that sensitive volume rockers are a bad thing, I think it's awesome...

Power button, they probably could have put it where the SDCard slot is and you could quickly turn it off with just a thumb slide but, I also like it where it's at now so. It's out of the way and prevent continious accidental locks while you're busy, which I can easily see happening if you take into consideration that I still accidentally press the volume down button:o

I don't really understand the complaints though, if they pick up the device they could unlock it with power button almost instantly before they even manouvre it into their hand for use...Else what's wrong with a quick swipe from the bottom to top to take you to last screen worked in?:eek: For the turning off...well if you're going to put it down anyways what difference does it make HOW you press the button, the thing is going on the table anyways and if you're lazy and read with the device flat on the surface you'll end up pressing the power button from the front side(Device facing up) with an index finger anyways...

Oh well, to each his own I suppose.

Like I said though the only MAJOR complaint I have is with the darn LED notification. Perhaps if they could just have increased the size of the LED slightly so that it could shine through more grill holes it would have been better but it's effectively a single grill hole notification with hard to notice colors on the LED in some instances. :silly: It's fine though the speakers make up for it somehow by clearly and loudly notifying you of an incoming mail, message etc so...
[One (M8) General] Fraught:
Yeah, a fair argument someone could bring up to me that I fully agree with is that the volume buttons are a bit too sensitive, and I accidentally press them a lot too. Again, I wish they were separated a bit (don't really like them being one unified strip), and were a bit more rigid. I can change the volume on the M8 without making almost any noise, but I'd take some noise when pressing the volume buttons as opposed to accidentally pressing them all the time (which is extra annoying seeing as my headset controls don't seem to work, at least not in PowerAmp).
[One (M8) General] crazy88:
Agree about the volume buttons. The amount of times a notification goes off and I thought I had it on silent/ vibrate.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] typhoonikan:
Are there any other cool uses for the IR other than the TV?

I would like to see some neat things spring up, kinda like NFC. Though, I can't think of anything that uses IR other than my tv.

Ideas?
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] skizzled:
I've only ever used it for controlling my TV, receiver, and cable box. These are the most common devices you'll find with any sort of IR.

Though, anything with an IR interface could technically be controlled with it.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Rydah:

[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Runnin_IT:

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ray2047:
I have been using an SD card in my NC. I have now rooted my NC and want to copy over apps and files. What directories and files do I need to copy?

Do I need to reinstall the apps like Kindle and Kobo? How. Google Play sees the rooted NC as the same device as the SD card and won't let me install. I didn't want to delete them from the SD card so I could again use the SD card should I ever be unable to get the NC to boot its internal OS.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leapinlar:
When you say you rooted your NC, do you mean you added root access to stock or do you mean you replaced stock with CM that is rooted?

To save your installed apps and settings from the SD, just use Titanium Backup and then you can restore to whatever you have on internal.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ray2047:
Yes. Thanks.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ray2047:
Okay I installed Titanium Backup on the SD card and backuped to the card. Now how do I get it on the internal OS of my NC. Sorry for being so dense. Do I have to uninstall on the CM10 SD card and reinstall on NC OS or what.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leapinlar:
Copy the Titanium Backup folder created after you backed up the SD to the "emmc" folder on internal memory. Then install Titanium backup on the NC OS and the after booting to NC OS copy the backup folder from emmc to your standard SD. Then restore your apps with TB.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ray2047:
Sorry, I though I'd deleted that but thank you for the answer. Digging more at Google Play I was able to install the apps to the internal NC OS. Was simpler to just redo. All is good and I am happy with my $44 Android tablet. Thanks all who helped me over the last few weeks.

[Sony Xperia L] Wazzzzaaaah:
A costum ROM/kernel can make a bit of difference. But compared to, for example, an iPhone the quality of the touchscreen is pretty sad. But then again, the phone is 1/2 of the costs of an iPhone.

I removed my screenprotector, this helped a bit.
[Sony Xperia L] sherry_94:
No......even 5000 inr android phone has better touch.....this simply cant be forgiven .....damn sony
[Sony Xperia L] itsjustJOH:
I dunno, but I'm pretty satisfied with the sensitivity of my XL. My father's iPhone 5C has a very good sensitivity, but my XL is good enough. It does have the multitouch problem, which is sad for me since I play a lot of games and most use the multitouch functionality. I don't have any screen protectors on, nor was there an anti-shatter proof film though I think all XL did not have any ASF out of the box. I guess it's because it's an ODM phone, QC is different.

This is a minor annoyance but sometimes I just want to open my camera app and browse photos while my phone is laying on my desk, but when I open the camera app it automatically goes landscape mode and I have to pick the phone up to get it back to portrait. Any body know of a way to cancel this auto-landscape feature in the camera app?

Edit: Just realized I could just go to the "photos" app directly and bypass the camera. This opens in portrait. But also adds another icon to my homescreen. I'd like to just use the camera icon for all of this, so still would like to hear any ideas anyone has
