I just took my first picture with my phone today, and noticed there's dust or something inside the camera because there's a very noticeable black spot on the left side of every image I take even after I cleaned the lens. Kind of disappointing.
Now I guess I'll have to unroot my phone and get it ready to head back to Sprint right after I got all my music on it and everything lol.
Anyone else have QC issues with their NS?
That sucks. Sorry to hear about the dust in your camera. Hopefully this is an isolated defect as my is great. Good luck and hope you get it taken care of without issue.

Glad to hear that yours is fine. Unfortunately the corporate Sprint store is kind of far from my house and I'm going to be pretty busy so I may have to wait a little while before I can get it taken care of.
Sorry to hear about your phone. I'll be sure to check it out fully before loading mine up. It's out for delivery right now. Can't wait.

First NS = bad screen, Second NS = chipped corner of screen, Third NS = random blue blot behind screen. Awesome phone, looks great runs great. But definitely quality control issue.
On my newly exchanged sensation, I have noticed that the capacitive buttons at the bottom of the phone are not evenly lit up. The home button is slightly brighter than the the menu button. Also the search button is a little brighter than the back button. My first unit that I returned cause of battery issues had perfect , even lighting on all four buttons. Also, on this unit, it makes a creaking noise when I press the screen on three bottom left side. I might return this one also.
Has anyone noticed the same uneven button lighting on their phone?

Yeah, the menu and back are lighter, but very minimal.

Yup. I know from reading at the thunderbolt forums that htc used 2 LEDs to light up the four buttons and they had the same issue so this maybe the case also. Anyone else with the same issue?

You better take it back. Make sure to explain that your lights are uneven.

Ya, I should do it, especially since it also has that lower right screen creak/click thing going on . This whole experience has not been that great. I mean, I love the device but would love to have 1 great unit free of these defects. Then I will truly enjoy this masterpiece!

I'm not saying it isn't an issue. but of all the issues i've seen so far, if when I get mine this is all it suffers with I'd be happy. Not too sure about the creak tho, that would be a bit off putting. HTC are normally good built quality, so a creak would be annoying.
There have been a fair few faults with this device so far, but it does seem that none of them are affecting all handsets, so hopefully there aren't any major faults going on
I think I see what you mean OP about the uneven backlit keys. For my device its minimal and you can barely notice it. I do however have light leaking from the seam next to the left of the home button. Does anyone else have this?

Same for me, very minimal. I think it's the same for all of us, actually I hadn't noticed it until I read your post and had a careful look at it.
But your creaking noise, if not coming from the back cover not completly locked correctly, so coming from the screen itself, is more worrying, your screen must be badly stuck, like for some people on the forum, so you should take it back
(see if dust is coming under the screen in the creaking area)

I also have the light leaking but it is on the other side beside the search key. It is very tiny so it doesn't bother me at all. I think I will keep this rather than exchange it for another problem.

I also have the light leaking from the seam near the home button. At first it looked like a glare, but it's obviously a crack where the light is leaking through. It's bothersome to me (my annoyance is increasing) and I think I'm planning on returning (exchanging) the phone. it's concerning to me, because I don't really know where that opening goes, i.e. where will the dust, sweat, lint, etc. migrate to once it inevitably gets inside there. Of course, everything else seems ok for now, so I wonder what other problems I'll get with a new unit.

Yea, i just came back from Walmart. I returned the second unit , couldnt deal with it, and ordered a new one from T-mobile on a new two year contract. They offered me an early full upgrade (9 months early) with a new contract. Final price 200
I'm happy. Let's hope the has perfect build when it arrives early next week.

sure no problem you will be ok just handle the phone with care the back piece is fragile very, try not to drop the back cover or you will loose your volume rocker or the power button and remember to slide it in and out the back cover head first thats what he meant about build quality i think

THIS IS THE WORST, MOST SHODDILY CONSTRUCTED PHONE THAT COULD EVER EXIST (Not)
The "build quality" of the phone is fine. There are a few problems associated with being early adopters, that a small fraction of people on XDA have. As far as I know, everyone with major issues had them resolved by returning their phone, in store and getting it replaced on the spot.
There are different displays one bye AUO and one made by Sharp, if you're having trouble and prefer either display you can go in-store and exchange it, after telling them the issues you're having with your phone.
Furthermore many of the so called "issues" with build quality are BS manufactured by XDA-ers. Like:
"If I turn of my screen and hold it at a 45 degree angle while shining a flashlight at it I can see a spec of dust under the screen, I'm really really worried ='("
or my personal favorite:
"When I press down on the buttons on the bottom of my screen I hear a slight creaking sound WTF HTC!?!?"
My personal second favorite is THE LAGGY SENSE ISSUE, which essentially goes like this :
"I saw a video on youtube and the HTC EVO 3D runs the HTC Sense homescreen carousel milliseconds faster and smoother than the HTC Sensation, WTF HTC !!! IS THIS WHAT WE'RE PAYING FOR!?!?!?"
- I would like to note that this issue only came into existence after said video made its way to the forums and someone decided that it was an "issue" that a slightly newer phone, with slightly better hardware and a slightly more optimized ROM, ran sense 3.0 slightly better than our phones do at the moment.
- They aren't buttons... this is a touch screen phone and just because they look like buttons doesn't mean that they should be pressed like buttons.
- Wifi-Signal attenuation while holding the phone, in landscape, a particular way IS real, but only if you are far away from your router. ALL phones experience signal attenuation when all or parts of the radios are covered, our phones do not lost Cellular data signal when held in landscape as has been erroneously reported in some places.
Now I will tell you about my experiences with the phone. Both cameras perform poorly in low light conditions and other than that it's a beast of a phone. Absolutely phenomenal.Strangely enough, I don't hear many people talking about this, actual issue where the phone is not performing as one might realistically expect it to perform.
I got my device on launch day and haven't had one "issue" yet. I have seen and others have noted that some dust can get inside of the phone's case, near the headphone jack. I would consider this another NON-issue as it has not been shown to cause any issues. Furthermore dust frequently gets inside of electronics, that's why the good lord above invented compressed air. Some XDA-ers inhale it then try to find issues with their devices, I will use it to clean my phone in a few months, the same way that I do to my desktop PC or the way my little brother does to his gaming consoles.
It's a terrible phone if you only use it at 45 degree angles, in the dark, while shining a flashlight on it, with the display turned off as you press extra hard on the touchscreen (because YOU believe they are buttons to be pressed and not a screen to be touched), using your phone a mile away from your home router, in landscape while completely covering the top of the phone and watching videos of HTC EVO 3D's performing slightly better and getting jealous.
If you use your phone like a normal end-user or even a power user and NOT a beta tester in a laboratory setting then the phone is amazing.
I rest my case.
Thanks for the info guys. Much appreciated.

You should look into getting the mytouch 4g slide it comes out July 27th it has pretty much the same specs but you won't have to give up your physical keyboard and it can handle T-Mobile HSPA+

I am not sure what these guys are referring to as having questionable build quality. If anything that would apply to the G2 and that was my last phone...well, right before the G2x horror.
You should be quite happy with the Sensation, if you have nothing against HTC Sense, as it is a very good device. Very good. I am certain it will be bested in some way by another high end Android phone in a few months, or weeks (there's always something new) but I am flat out thrilled to be using one right now.

Having had HTC HERO and A HTD HD7 I was more of inclined to go for the SENSATION,
But after hovering around both threads decided for the GAlaxy s2 due to better back camera and front camera(2mp) and also for the fact that it came with bootloader unlocked
ANd I guess that was the best decision I made cause of one more reason being....
You can flash the latest firmwares on samsung Devices with ODIN without the NEED TO ROOT which I think is really cool.
I am already on a leaked version of 2.3.4 running beautifully with gtalk video working really great and have not even rooted my phone yet
Just my thoughts.........
I have recently used my camera for a picture but I noticed that my screen look like its burning up like pixels are burning. So I took some picture of it. I'm not sure why it show it like this but screen look very bad in camera mode beside this picture was taking at half 7 at night. And while recording I did not see very great quality even my cousin Samsung wave 2 5 megapixel looked better on picture and video. I just want to know if any1 else has felt the same. for some reason i could not upload the picture and i will try again to upload them.
the first 1 is just in the camera mode and flah is not on and the second is flash on but you can still see bad colours. and in video just forget it i can see sort of light on the screen going up and down and it is very disturbing while recording. i have tried to take a picture at day time and the quality looks good still not better than my old htc hd2 because of pixelated.
i had to cut some part which was due to privacy but this is the picture i took at my collage and this was the assisemant i had to write it and i took picture of it rather than writing it down. but you can see the collage picture looks alright but at night it just look messed up. and the settings are same all the way through everything to set with custom level set to middle all of them and picture is set to 8 megapixel.
please feel free to write about your experience you had with your camera and your screen and i have watched youtube and i dont see anything wrong this is i think camera problem. other than phone is 3 weeks old no drops no nothing still in brand new condition.

Do you have a camera mod installed?
What ROM are you using?
If its stock rom and you haven't changed the camera, then take it to the store you bought it from, and demand an exchange because that camera is obviously messed up.
my experience with my sensation, and about all mobile phones, is that in low light conditions the quality is really poor.
Need to say I did not experience the bad quality you're showing. With flash it should have been better if the distance of the photographed object is not to big.
I'm using revolutionary 3.1.1 rom and I did not use any mod or anything its the camera that is showing the quality like this.

As I'm a fresh user of this forum I am not sure if I can post any pictures, but I'll give it a try.
I took this first picture in sheer darkness. I could not see the model car on the display. With the flash it shows on the photo. It's not sharp because of that.
The second one I took with a little light so I could just see the modelcar in the phone display. This picture is a little sharper but still not good.
The third I took under a halogen desk light and is clearly sharper.
Hope it helps!
Also took a daytime picture for you. Well...it's a bit cloudy and foggy outside so the pic is not 100% clear, but think you can get the "big picture" about the overall quality.

Hey Dude,
1. As @Speedy72 said, either smartphone or regular phone does not take good photos due to physical optic parts limitations.
BUT
2. Some time ago I had similar problems with pictures also with ARHD roms. ROM is genuine but problems were obvious for me. It also gone bootloops once a day. Now changed to Virtuous Sensation XE 2.1 and both mentioned problems vanished for me.
So, my advice - try different ROM (if U like ARHD then Virtuous XE will be just for you).
Good luck!
Im actually having the same problem with the camera... hopefully thats just the way they all are when it comes to a red or orange color
Try hitting the menu key and messing with the image adjustments to see if you can make it normal again.

In low light, the camera blows. One thing that seems to have worked for me was to disable the "Auto-Enhance" feature. Pictures were much better. I now run ARHD 4.1.5 with Amaze Cam v7 and it takes great pictures, even in low light.
With mod, low light
Without mod, auto-enhance enabled, daylight
Notice the major blotchiness of the daylight picture.
Hope this helps

can you see the right top corner all those little pixel they look disgusting
As far as the really bright pixels, did you try disabling the auto-enhance and take the picture again? Let me know how that works.
In the really dark photos, those pixels are called noise. Even top of the line DSLRs have that (to some degree) in low light. It's a phone camera. It's going to happen. Go check some Apple forums and you'll find out that the 4S has this too. I'm afraid its something you're going to have to live with my friend, or carry around a light

i have took the auto enhance off but still those little pixels are sticking out beside i looked up for camera noise and this is how my screen looks all the time before taking picture.
i hate this noise thing so bad because it only happens at night and this is the only time when i rarely use my camera.

Have you thought about backing up your apps and anything else you need to keep and trying Android Revolution HD 4.1.5 (I think 4.1.6 is out now actually)? It has Sense 3.5, then you can flash the Amaze camera mod v7 (v8 causes problems for some). The newest InsertCoin ROM also has Sense 3.5, same with RCMix. Try them all. It will produce less noise, but like I said before, you'll never lose the noise fully no matter what camera or software you go to.

best camera ever
So I am just wondering if I'm just have a run of bad luck. Bought my one x the release day. Few days later started seeing dead pixels all over the screen. Took it to att and they swap it out no problem.
Second one seem fine the first day but then I notice tons of light leakage like the screen wasnt in all the way around the bottom and right side. The screen would also wiggle and make a popping sound if I pressed on it on the bottem left corner, right corner, and top right corner. The plastic on the bottom would also move if I pressed it.
I happen to luck out and found an att close by that had one in (damn you apple). Now this one the screen is clicking even worse than the second one. If I wipe the screen off I can hear it clicking and popping with even the lightest pressure. Also have light leakage across the bottom again and what looks like single dots almost like a dead pixel even though there is no pixel by the buttons where light is shining through the black. I expect to have att replace this one also.
So I was just wondering am I have terrible luck or should I expect this from all hox? I love the device but really wont keep it if I keep getting shotty devices.
That's some pretty bad luck... Still on my first. No problems except for the tiniest bit of bleed on one side, and I cannot over emphasize tiny. Hope it stays that way too.
Still on first as well

You must have been on a streak of bad luck for your HOX...
I am currently on my second. The first one had a defect in the upper-right side (near the volume rocker and front-facing camera) where it would very loudly "creak" whenever I picked it up and/or was using it. And the screen/display in that area was "mushy" as I was able to be push the internal casing into the polycarbonate shell a few millimeters without hardly any force at all.
I bought it at Best Buy and when I brought it in I just asked IF it would be considered a defect and they suggested replacing it without me even asking. The second one I got is very solid in comparison to the issues from the first one but the volume rocker does "wiggle" a bit and the bottom (near the microphone) "creaks" but only if I apply direct pressure on it. I understand the nature of how the internal "frame" is placed into the "shell" so I don't think those are issues at all so I am very pleased with the build quality. Also, I keep it in a Otterbox Defender now so I don't even notice either issue at all.
This sucks that I'm having this luck but thanks for the feed back.

Some of these small creeks or wiggles are somethings that might just need to be accepted. We are too often perfectionists. Not realists.

I agree that we can sometimes expect too much.
The One X is unique in it's design in that the "internal frame" that holds the display, screen, motherboard, battery, etc. actually "snaps" into the outer polycarbonate shell, not with screws like almost all other smartphones.
The "creak" that was coming from my first HOX was an undeniable defect, it was so loud the BB employees could hear it over all the crowd noise and it would do that just by handling it normally, not to mention the screen had way too much "give". The "creak" in my second HOX is probably just a "normal" side-effect of the design, as it is very faint and only happens when I try, and I have totally accepted that (as I have already mentioned I see it as a non-issue).
But to be honest, I don't think the consumer should just "accept" flaws and poor build quality, things should not "creak" or "wiggle" (that were never meant to) within a few days of use. Some people can deal with it but we should not have to, so if someone is unhappy with their product then they have every right to exchange it or return it.
I'm on my second, first one swapped for connection issues (had to toggle airplane mode for it to work any time I lost service or was in an area with poor reception)... Only to find out that my second does the exact same thing.. considering swapping again because 1.85 screwed it up even more.

I agree that often perfectionist and it's my downfall. I'm ok with the very small light leak I have on this one . But just touching my screen near top and hearing it "pop" just shouldn't happen and afraid it will get worse as time goes on. And seeing as I bought this phone out right I don't feel as if I'm being to unreasonable. I mean I must of traded in 20-35 iPhones in my time for even smaller defects. Going back to the iPhone 3g.

Uuuummmm..... My HTC does not have any of the problems that people have mentioned in the thread. No bleeding light, creeking noises or pixel issues. Not one single issue. I have even dropped it about 5 times and it skidded about 10 feet each time. Still good as new. Actually the builded quality for me compared to the Sony phone is night and day. Sorry to hear about everyone bad luck. So far its been the best phone that I have owned.

I will comment that the camera lens is of a stupid design. That lens got scratched in about 5 minutes of ownership. Just lucky that the scratch is not showing up in photos.
