Yes its about the screen shore issue. Its a hot topic didn't think twice about putting the issue in. also it doesn't seem to be a fix but it does do it less often than before.

If you don't have to draw a pattern to unlock your phone then it's already off.

It seems other devices with 2.3.3 are affected by this. So it cannot be a hardware problem its just a simple fault with gingerbread. So we just need to wait for an update
BTW, which deal did you buy your DS from? The _£25 a month for
12months?

Selling my mytouch

http://www.ebay.com/itm/260966915456?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649
I'm selling my mytouch 4g slide if anyone wants it just bid. I'm happy with my newest phone.
In case anyone here wants to bid - what version of hboot and software version is it on?
You should try selling it to an active member of the CyanogenMod team.
Delivered via candygram for Mr. Mongo.

If you need to return to stock we have full ability to do so all the way back to S-ON. I would wait on that to see what the new owner would want to do, since S-OFF is currently not possible if S-ON from the most recent software update.
It being S-OFF capable is an asset to anyone who wants to mod it that you could lose by updating the software and going S-ON, but you have options depending on what the buyer wants.

Neither would I, no need to be offended, some of us are a little paranoid. Plus what if I buy something this expensive and doesn't work as expected?
Also I actually trust people on XDA more than anywhere else.
Fyi I think posting eBay links is against rules.
On the other hand I have different fingers.. but seriously I think it wouldn't hurt to ask Blahbl4h if he's interested in purchasing it as he has shown much interest in our device of late.
Just my spare change.

[Q] any news on ics coming to U.S for T mobile?

Hello all, I was wondering if any of you knowledgeable people had any news of I.C.S coming to the US , via T Mobile? There is so much speculation on this, I was wondering if anyone knew anything about this subject? I contacted T Mobile representive and she did not know what I was talking about.....then she said oooh that will be months away! I hope she's wrong! Months away? Really, what is your understanding on this subject? I will appreciate any input or opinions, thank you

I was waiting for this: I think every carrier should have its own "When is ICS coming to my Sensation OTA?" thread.
That said, the information you got is typically non-informative. I remember struggling to explain what a software update was to one of the reps. Now, of course, I realize that they simply don't have an answer and, per posts to be found elsewhere (Search!) say "in a month or two" as a basic TMO CYA policy.

Thank you for the tip.
Honestly I'm glad T-Mobile decided to delay the update. For some reason HTC now thinks it's acceptable to turn on your WiFi and/or Mobile Network whenever they damn well please. Apparently it takes a carrier to change their mind.
Hopefully it's a quality update when released!
Yeah I hope so too

There's no way that's an official Tmobile statement. Did you see the terrible grammar and run-on sentences? That person has a junior high education at most. An actual press release would be much better formulated.
I'm guessing that "update" was copied and pasted directly from a thread here at XDA.

Do you normally leave them on? If so then you're immune. This is a well documented issue with every ROM using the latest bases from HTC. Just read a few pages of any ROM thread using the base. Turning off auto-sync mostly eliminates the issue but it's a serious pain.
Regardless of workarounds, I find it utterly unacceptable for my phone to turn on its own data connection without me telling it to. I'm sure T-Mobile feels the same way. Imagine the support calls and troubleshooting nightmares.

[Q] Using ATT One X with T-Mobile and getting 4G - possible?

Just curious about this question - because I would really want to use this with T-Mobile.
So, a few days ago I noticed that an aquintance of mine was using an ATT Samsung Note with T-Mobile. I asked him - but you are only getting Edge (2G), right? So he says - "No! I flashed the GSM version modem, and I am getting HSPA+ (4G)", or whatever you call it.
I was shocked! Amazing solution.
Do we have this?
Thanks
Ever thought to read the other thread that's already open about this phone on T-Mobile?
We don't even have a bootloader unlocked and you're asking about flashing different radios. SMH.

Sigh. If S-Off is ever achieved then it will be possible. All you need is a similar phone with the same SoC that has a T-Mobile radio. In this case a One S radio may allow an S-Off One X to work on T-Mobile.

Then you need to call HTC and find out who you need to talk to to find out if your serial number is still covered by the manufacturer's warranty. If not, it's probably something you should have done BEFORE you made the purchase. I could be wrong but it sounds like someone passed a hardware problem off on an unsuspecting buyer. BUT....it MAY still be covered and they didn't know either.
Isn't it worth a try?

This is their online "Warranty Statement". But it does conflict with the results some others have had doing a return. It COULD be that they returned it thru their carrier.

This is their website where you can directly e-mail the company with questions if you like.
