You didn't mention it but ok. That's the problem with HTC inspire 4G. When I first got mines it had poor sound quality. Once I rooted it and applied patches it sounds amazing now.

Lol sorry about that youre right i thought i did mention that and ty for the info. Im not comfortable rooting my phone so i guess ill just live with it. Everything else works great and with my luck if i turn the phone in ill get one with a different problem. Thanks again for your help.

No problem. I heard there's a update to allow sideloading to unrooted phones. Do you have that?
Sent from my HTC Desire HD using XDA Premium App
No. I just got an update the other day that seems to have made the phone a little faster but thats been it as far as updates .
Once you get the sideloading update it will be under application and you'll see a unknown source box. Once you get it let me know. It's a quite update also.

Do i keep checking where it says att updates where i found the other update ? Or can i get it elsewhere?
reboot your phone and check under application. Its a silent update. You won't know if they did.

Okay so I was having all kinds of touch screen issues,with the lock screen and in general the display wasn't recognizing swipes and was constantly opening Widgets and apps on the home screens.So I went to do a warranty exchange and took off my Tpu blue argyle case and after a reboot everything went back to normal so just thought I would post(even though this probably won't help anyone)there is a chance that it might.Please post your responses whether this helps or not and if your phone has been naked all it's life and still having problems.I usually always have my phone naked in a Nexus one pouch as I bought a bunch of them and like the protection they offer.

Thanks for contribution, but this is NOT a fix, trust me. Not for most people anyway.
Your a little to late to the dance my friend. This has been said multiple times over the past 6 weeks. Works for some and not for others. A lot of people also report that after a while, the problems come back whether the case is on or not.
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA Premium App
Right on no biggie,that's why in my post I said this most likely wouldn't help anyone I just wanted to know if anyone else noticed a difference and if it came back,and like you said it does so thanks.I just thought it was odd that a case was causing problems,I was also having wifi problems and since I took the case off those too have been resolved so I guess I have to wait and seen if there is a direct correlation or couincidence as I didn't have any issues pre case.

The case is blocking some of the WiFi signal. I know its not much but a piece of rubber is enough to **** up a already weak signal.
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA Premium App
I owned 2 sensations and both of them i returned for that same problem.
No matter how many resets or messing around with settings the screen woldnt register my touch after about a week and a half.
Im going for the mytouch 4g slide now and pray it works fine lol
I no longer have the problem after removing bloat ware and putting on a screen protector. Not sure which one fixed the problem. Try both!

Uh? I am in no way bei g hostile at all and am very sorry if my post looked like I was. I was just saying that a lot of people are complaining about weak wifi signal and that a rubber case is thick enough to weaken the signal more. Sorry again man but I really was just giving you some info.
Ask anyone who knows me. If I am bei g hostile, trust me, you'll know it.

Right on,thanks for the apology and I appreciate the info,your right it's common sense and it's just I have read of sooo many people complaining about this phone (death grip,poor wifi,touch screen issues,random reboots)and I hadn't experienced any of them until last week when I bought a case and for the last week I have had problems until today and when I took of the case off presto all MY problems disappeared.Which is odd since my wife has a similar case and has used it since launch and never had any issues.I just normally never use a case with any of my devices and haven't for a few years.

Touchscreen problems start when you use the phone while on charge. Go to my thread, and read a bit.

I haven't seen this at all and I use the phone while charging all the time although I don't use the stock charger,I use my Nexus One wall charger due to the sweet length on it.

There's some things I would do if I were you just for precaution.
1. Turn "Tell HTC" off. Its a setting under "About Phone". A lot of people have reported improved touch sensitivity and speed.
2. Take your battery out and keep it out over night.
Those two things seem to be fixing the issues the most.

I encountered the laggy unlock ring problem about 2 weeks after I got the phone. It lasted about a week and then went away. I haven't had any problems for almost a month now. I've never put a case on my phone, but I did disable all HTC syncs and disabled most HTC and Tmobile apps.

No worries
Hopefully it's some time in Q2 or Q3 and not around Xmas time. Either way, I'll be happy that there's hopefully going to be forward progress on CM9 since not having data is a real killer for an everyday phone.

Hello xda. Let me get straight to the point. My mom, step sister, brother and cousin all have the EVO shift. My cousin is on his 6th. My bros on his 3rd. Sisters on her 3rd and now my mom is getting her second. All do to touchscreen malfunction. I attached some pictures of the dead spot on the phone. Not only can I not touch there but sometimes when the phones just sitting there it'll touch random spots. Is there a fix to this? Maybe running an RUU?
Sent from my PG86100 using xda app-developers app
I've had the same problem in the same spot since I got my phone. Sprint and Wirefly screwed me out of insurance... So I just work around it by rotating the screen.
Changing the build.prop helps. Change windowsmgr.maxevents to 240. If you're not rooted you are outta luck tho, no update is gonna fix that.

The phones did work good for a while but then after time the touch just starts dying. Almost a total of 12 phones have had the same problem. Although phone with keyboards tend to malfunction more than bar phones.
Sent from my PG86100 using xda app-developers app
Yeah that is usually the flex cable but mine had a small dead line across the screen and progressively got worse. My wife's does too but hers happened after getting dropped in a drink lol. I'll just say I have done a lot with Android and I can't fix this problem, it is a hardware issue, no software will fix it.
That's what had happened to a few of the shifts. The cable started to crease and that shorted the screen to a point where it was unusable.
Sent from my PG86100 using xda app-developers app
It's defiantly a Hardware issue. Usually the Flex Cable. I've had them bought to me for repair acting just like yours. Usually end up replacing the Digitizer also. Because people tend to bang on the Screen harder, thinking that that will make it work. Which does nothing but cause more damage. If you have TEP, take it in. Just make sure to RUU before you take it in.

It is not a setting, it is an app. Search "touch screen test" on Play Store.

After the third time for the same issue you can request a NEW one. They may not be to happy to oblige, but if you stay on them they should do it. Also after the third time for the same issue, you can request a different device. It would be without a penalty. Meaning you should not have to use your Upgrade.
Either im really lucky or really careful, because nothing has gone bad on my shift except the battery. And that's after two years.

Yeah I'd like to buy one from there, but the thing is how reliable their reports of the phone state is :silly:
Maybe I'm just paranoid but if the person selling doesnt say what all the little problems are, then those could turn into bigger problems for me
At least with Sprint theres the guarantee that I can always pull the unhappy paying customer card

Not getting an iPhone ever. Haha. Or maybe..just maybe another HTC. I don't want to but the one x looks preety awesome. Maybe even the EVO 4glte? I don't know. Well ill see in 30 days . And happy new year everyone!!!!

Another quesiton,
So wait, to fix this problem do you need to buy the digitizer or flex cable? or both? because i have the exact same issue right on that same spot.
So I woke up this morning at a buddies house and went to turn my phone on, lo and behold
it vibrates 5 times at which I am greeted by the bad motherboard....
Long story short I am no longer going to be part of the MT4G community.
Its been a fun 2 years!
Cheers!

I'm going through a series of test, honestly havent a clue. could be there was an offset during the installation of my current ROM
Its a nice phone very solid and strong
I was planing to buy the htc one but then
I decided to rooted and install new rom 4.2.2 and its amazing but the battery sucks.
So I know have the HTC Rezound and am missing my glacier. If you want my old glacier that has emmc failure
plus another guts of a Glacier
And a Banker battery (4months old)
Please contact me at Ryangyear @ Gmail.com
I am shipping it to you cost free mind you!
Would like it to go to a person who could benefit from these parts. The phone itself has all working parts except for the emmc board on it.
