superglue a foldable, protective leather case with viewing stand to this transparent TPU case and you've got a winner. I'd buy it without hesitation.

I can't seem to find a good leather case for the HTC U11+ that offers sufficient protection along the borders.

The leather cases on amazon either have fake product images or the leather protection along the borders is insufficient.

[HTC U11+ Guides, News, & Discussion] MKOneX:
The first day with the U11+ is over and I am thrilled.

Phone's fast. Ok, that was my HTC 10 too, but some things are still fluffier.

I find the sound of the loudspeakers to be good, at high volume there might be more bass. Listening to music with the included headphones is very impressive. Noise cancelling works great, the sound is rich and it drones in your ears when the bass starts to play.

4:52 SOT with a lot of gimmick, wifi tests, data transfer, etc., and still 24% battery left.

Optically I think the U11+ is first class, altogether again a great phone. Although I'm a HTC fan, and hopefully I can stay.
[HTC U11+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Howling Wolf:
Mine arrived at 12am, got my hands on it at 4pm. I finally retrieved my sold U11 with a BIG +/ Plus :)

My spare A9 was way too small and battery life such a pity....

After 1st setup, I think I noticed Trebble in action, my U11+ downloaded a system update and installed it without asking for a reboot. What was this update about, I have no clue...
[HTC U11+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Galactus:
I think what you saw was the "Android is updating" thing that happens when optimising apps on first boot.
[HTC U11+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Howling Wolf:
Nope, don't think so.... I was already on home screen, I saw system update in the notifications while Google was restoring my apps previously installed on my spare A9.

What you're talking about is, if I'm not mistaken, the toast you see just before the 1st setup screen (language), Android updated about 226 apps or so.

Maybe that's not the right thread to ask this, but it was the case on the U11, 10,... The FP scanner can't be be used as home button anymore or I missed something ?
[HTC U11+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Galactus:
Nah there is another one that occurs after the phone has booted. I have seen it several times on my U11 when flashing between ROMs such as Viper or Leedroid and back to stock before selling the U11.

I imagine FP scanner tweaks would need root or a custom kernel. Don't think this phone will see much dev support though since hardly anyone is buying it.
[HTC U11+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Kidy973:
I received mine yesterday but I'm waiting for a screen protector and a protective case to use it properly.

So far, it's a big upgrade over my Nexus 5.

But I can't use double tap to wake. Am I the only one ? Double tap to lock works on the lock

screen however.
[HTC U11+ Guides, News, & Discussion] ferdzso:
double tap to wake seems to be tied to the motion sensors. you have to lift the phone and it will work fine then (it is a bit finnicky even then). if you just have it laying down on a desk, it barely registers
[HTC U11+ Guides, News, & Discussion] aatasti:
I had the same problem.

But it seems to me that you are right.

I hope they change that - what is the use of a double tap to wake when I have to pick it up fist :eek:

Futhermore, I don't like the ambient display - I would like it better if the display would turn off when its close to something and not turn on whenever it's moved.

Btw: is the notificationslight only able to display in green? I am not able to set whatsapp notification to purple
[HTC U11+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Galactus:
green led only. red or orange when low battery or charging
[HTC U11+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Kidy973:
It doesn't work at all. Even edge sense doesn't really want to work when the screen is off. I need to squeeze like 3 times for the phone to respond. Motion for AOD is working fine. I will investigate that thing.

Here, HTC mentions only 2 colors, orange and green : http://www.htc.com/hk-en/support/htc-u11-plus/howto/notifications.html
[HTC U11+ Guides, News, & Discussion] aatasti:
Thanks guys. That is a bit dissapointing imo. Even because the ambient display isnt too usefull and not really common for LCD display
[HTC U11+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Howling Wolf:
Maybe you're right... No big deal at the moment ;)

As for the FP, it was a stock feature on the 10 and U11. I think I'm going to open a dedicated thread about that a little later...
[HTC U11+ Guides, News, & Discussion] ferdzso:
in the options if you check double tap to wake it says you have to tilt it up. it isn't exactly the best solution, but it works for me. if I trigger the AOD, double tap or swipe up will work for me fine.

the biggest problem I had so far was the split screen mode. on default display size you cannot change split screen to 1/3 and 2/3 instead of the 50/50 split. if you change the display size to small, it works.

also, is there a way to turn off the notifications led, when the screen is turned on? - edit: never mind, there is an option for this :D
[HTC U11+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Galactus:
Works fine here, no problems.
[HTC U11+ Guides, News, & Discussion] daheufster:
If i may ask, what colour did you all order?
[HTC U11+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Galactus:
Black, which almost looks like a gunmetal black. It definitely is not jet black.
[HTC U11+ Guides, News, & Discussion] iad77:
Anyone getting a red trail when swiping on the screen repeatedly? Most noticeable at lower brightness, stays for a few seconds as a reddish blotch? Official UK handset, still running sense...
[HTC U11+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Galactus:
Nothing like that here, UK handset too
[HTC U11+ Guides, News, & Discussion] iad77:
Yeah I tried to reproduce it but it's stopped now. Might be when night mode is on. Nothing to worry about then I guess... [emoji4] loving this phone so far..
[HTC U11+ Guides, News, & Discussion] ferdzso:
it is definitely a night mode thing. I noticed a red effect while reading in night mode.
[HTC U11+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Meowzen:
The night mode definitely shows a slight red blur when scrolling through text. A bit weird but doesn't bother me much
[HTC U11+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Nokiacrazi:
Been using the U11+ since it arrived on Friday. Switched over from my 10 in the evening and had 1 single full usage which almost annoyingly lasted all weekend! Size takes about of getting used to, bit difficult for me to use one handed, but in terms of performance it's fast no lags to speak of even during heavy usage multi tasking dual window shiz.

Using mostly WiFi, 50% autobrightness, location Google services all on, little bit of 4g Waze usage. This thing will last me 3days with extremely light usage, 2 days with light/normal usage, 1 day heavy usage easily.

Display is better than the 10s, doesn't pop like AMOLEDs if you go for that. Camera is bloody sharp. Been comparing to pixel 2, it's on par/ better. Speakers are decent, bundled in ears are good. Using as a phone has been very clear, I think the mics are doing a good job. Happy chappy!
[HTC U11+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Commando:
Ok, I have pre-ordered the phone from the czech web site. They have not even bothered to send me some confirmation mail, but the payment is blocked on my credit card and the order can be found via the Digital River site. Obviously the phone is below average (at least for me) and I would be returning it anyway. That is why I want to cancel the pre-order. How the hell should I do that? On their web, there is no contact infomation, no phone number, no mail, no names, no adress, no accout and so on. OMG, does this company even exist? Do I have to go to the bank to "somehow" block the payment or what? Can someone help me and tell me how to cancel the pre-order in the EU? Thx.

I received my U11+ last Friday and my credit card was charged only today for complete payment by tomorrow.
[HTC U11+ Guides, News, & Discussion] BritSwedeGuy:
Pre-ordered on the 30th of November - payment has been allocated against my credit card but still no change in order status. And I'm moving to Portugal in 10 days time.
[HTC U11+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Kidy973:
Eventually, I found why double tap to wake was not working. It use motion sensor and proximity sensor and I kept the phone in his protective film which is blurry. No problems at all now.

Anyone know a more accurate apps than Ampere to read battery charging rate ?

I got some doubts : with HTC wall charger (supposed to be QC 3.0), it show me 1050mA but the phone is fully charged in less than 2 hours (35-40% in 30 min, 70% in 1h, 90% in 1h30 for anyone wondering).

Then i use a another wall charger which can deliver 2.4A, Ampere show 1000-1050mA again but this time, it take like 2h30 to be fully charged.
[HTC U11+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Galactus:
I have only ever used 3c battery monitor widget on my S7 Edge and it was very accurate. Could give it a try. Never used Ampere

Make sure you leave the screen off for a bit too. Devices don't charge at their maximum rate with the screen on.
[HTC U11+ Guides, News, & Discussion] BritSwedeGuy:
FINALLY my U11+ is (allegedly) in a DPD van - nothing's changed on findmyorder.com and there's still no charge on my Amex card, but I do have an SMS (bounces around in chair excitedly)
[HTC U11+ Guides, News, & Discussion] iad77:
So anyone else sometimes getting horizontal lines and finger trails staying on the screen? It's not always there but it just happened this morning again... night mode off adaptive brightness on and tried off but it no different ... restarted the phone and it's fine again..
[HTC U11+ Guides, News, & Discussion] iad77:
Not only in night mode... getting it during the day too
[HTC U11+ Guides, News, & Discussion] matty538:
I've noticed white text on a black background does seem to have a red tint to it, it's more noticeable when swiping quickly with night mode on or off.
[HTC U11+ Guides, News, & Discussion] wilpang:
Doesn't the HTC charger only work with HTC devices and any third party charger you use won't quick charge? I've tried this with my brother's Oneplus 3 and I don't get quick charge with that.
[HTC U11+ Guides, News, & Discussion] iad77:
Just to clarify these are horizontal bars in the screen that are visible sometimes and the effect also like from the swipe keyboard trails where your finger has been...
[HTC U11+ Guides, News, & Discussion] thides74:
Ampere is a crappy app for measuring charging. Use something like AccuBattery that gives you detailed info also about charging currents when screen is off. Probably its just because the screen is on, and hence the charge current is lowered because of that.

---------- Post added at 09:50 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:15 AM ----------

I live in Denmark. The phone was ordered on Black friday within the first hour of sale. In the middle of december I was informed (like many others) that deliveries were delayed until mid january. However then on 22. december I got a mail notifying me that the phone was in stock and would be send the same day.

Received it two days ago.

Just a couple of observations based on the two days usage comparing to the Nexus 6P that I had before:

It looks very stylish and feels amazing in the hand. Very smooth and discrete. I guess it can be slippery if using it with very dry hands or gloves. But the slimmer design makes it more manageable than the 6P.

Screen is bright enough for me. I set the level to about 85% max brightness. That level equals about 55-60% of brightness on the 6P. I personally don't need more brightness than that. Outdoor usage has not been any issue, however I have not tried it in full sunshine yet. It gets very dim which is great for in-bed use. Colors are great and after having used the phone a bit I actually think I prefer this screen over the AMOLED of the 6P. So far I think it is a great screen.

Battery feels about the same level as 6P. I will easily get a day of usage based on mixed web, streaming music, few phone calls and a bit of Google maps. I think the screen brightness level is the most deciding factor in how long the battery lasts. Brightness set to about 25% for in bed web surfing, battery level was dropping just 1% per 10 minuttes of surfing. Over-night standby was dropping 3% in 7.5 hours. Charging feels a tad slower than on the 6P but not much. My old 6P charger charges with 2.7 amps which is about same level as the supplied QC3 charger.

Audio is amazingly good on the supplies headphones. It is lightyears better than the 6P.

Camera is fast and simple to use. I have the impression that the 6P in some low light situations is a bit sharper. The HTC delivers equal sharp pictures in all other situations. But I have not used it much in dark situations yet to give it a fair evaluation.

Wifi is very fast. It max out my fiber connection on the upload with ~500 Mbit.

Overall after 2 days of usage I'm very pleased with the phone. I feel its a worthy upgrade from the 6P that has been my main phone for just about 2 years. It at least matches that phone on all parameters that matters to me. It was worth the wait and I have to say that I'm happy I did not cancel my order (which I was almost doing due to the delay, like many other users in this forum).
[HTC U11+ Guides, News, & Discussion] cameljockey1:
Anything quick charge branded will work on this phone. Anything OnePlus has won't work because of there technology of dash charging. That will only work on OnePlus stuff.

Probably the same reason being on the October security patch bothers you. It's something that isn't right with the phone.
[HTC U11+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Galactus:
Yeah red tint text is definitely more of an issue than security patch on a phone that hasn't even been out for two weeks.

Only thing I care about right now is adding carrier features like VoLTE

[HTC U11+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Chronosus:
I wonder if there's been some kind of manufacturing issue or maybe deal with google to limit production to their Pixel 2 XL rival. It's been 2 months since announcement and I still can't even preorder this phone (I'm in EU), and if I could I could just do it in one color. Where are the other two? Why does it take so long? Is the phone such a hit in Asia that they can't satisfy demand?
[HTC U11+ Guides, News, & Discussion] ziplepingouin:

From what I could see, the "pre-order" sign has been removed, so I just placed my order (on NL website), hoping that they indeed have it in stock...

Anybody has any advise for cases?
[HTC U11+ Guides, News, & Discussion] paatha13:
Well apparently HTC is working on U12 right now and release earlier spring most of the case.

I hope will see Translucent variant too on next flagship and without all that issues with delays with current 11 Plus.
[HTC U11+ Guides, News, & Discussion] audiavant:
HTC and other producers of product like HTC or others are always working on next release. Shall we wait for latest release means you never will get any device at all ;)
[HTC U11+ Guides, News, & Discussion] paatha13:
That’s true but I’m not in a harry.

I’ve already having another device that meets my needs right now and I’ve tested several other flagship too but as I’ve always do latest years to test as much device i can and want not only for some needs but also as a hobby imo.

For me HTC just screw up with U11+ as much I really liked it but I’ve better looking for the near future since it’s not far far away.

Timing is fundamental with technology and HTC screw up latest yeast.

U11+ should have been U11 and being released spring 2017 after all.

And since I’m not keeping smartphone for a long time so no problem to me to wait for next device and so on. [emoji6]
