Notification drop down list font weird behaviour - HTC One S

OK, got some pics and a video here! Should see what I was talking about.
http://youtu.be/3-UUMtQ9vdE
When you receive a notification, say an email, it shows a line in the notification drop down list. Press the line will open particular app. This is we all know.
But, have you noticed something like this? When press the notification line, don't release you finger but keep pressing it, sometimes, not often but did happen to me a few times, the font of the notification line became blurred and hard to read, unlike the normal case, it should be slightly smaller than the unpressed notification to indicate it's being pressed.
It's really hard to notice I know, since we just press it quickly and another app is opened right away. And, I tried to reproduce this but failed. So it just happens quite randomly or in a very certain circumstances.
Have you ever noticed this guys? Or can you try the same, press but not release when new notification comes in the future to see if it's just my phone?
Cheers!

updated pictures and video, could anyone help me on this? noticed this on your one s?

Just tried on a couple of different notifications. Held them for about 10 seconds with nothing other then the text getting smaller when initially selected.

Yes, this doesn't happen to me very often, I haven't figured out in what circumstances this would more likely to happen but maybe when battery is low, say about 15% or less. Could you and others just be mindful when clicking notification that will just be enough.
Cheers.

Had phone for one week, no longer recognizing fast swipes.

For the first week, I could do a fast swipe across my home screen to get it spinning. Worked 100% of the time. As of yesterday, it literally no longer recognizes these swipes. It won't move at all, or sometimes it will think I clicked on an app instead of swiping.
Same thing applies to the lock screen. I have to slowly bring up the ring to unlock. Extremely irritating.
What saddens me is this happened on my first phone as well after about a week (exchanged that phone because of dust). Looks like it wasn't just that phone.

Same thing happened to me. Seems like after a week things get funky. Probably just some crappy software coding because the Evo3d doesn't have that problem at all.

Hopefully that OTA coming out fixes the problem, or else I might return it for good and wait on another phone.
I had it for 9 days. No problems with touchscreen. And check the "touchscreen not responsive" thread for possible solution

No issues yet. I only get the spinning effect here and there but I have to swipe fast.

Same thing happened to me last week. Thought it was because I had installed a bunch of apps, but it wasn't that. What I did was I cleaned the phone with a cloth (inside & out) and VIOLA, it started swiping fast again.

Seems like a grounding issue, but we don't exactly know what's causing the problem. It works sometimes, doesn't work others.
This really sucks. Just the other day I could get it to spin with one swipe. It's impossible to do with any amount of swipes now.
I have to double swipe to get it to work. I have to kill all the running processes in the quick settings first.
What's the point of the carousel super spin? Mine doesn't do it unless I hit it just right, but in my eyes its a total novelty.

Agree, not just useless but a waste of time if you trigger it accidentally. Sense REALLY needs a "performance" setting that disables all the animation crap, like Windows has. That sliding home screen after unlocking is also really silly. I want snap, not spins and gradual fades. If they want to make everyone happy they need to maximize customization.

I just use it as a way to make sure my screen is still responsive. I couldn't care less about anything else about it.

Yes we all agree that the effect itself is not important. But it shows the responsiveness of the touchscreen. If you cant get it to spin, your phone feels like ass when you swipe things.Well hell not just swiping, anything touch related. I removed my sim card, battery and SD card to take it back and exchange it and all of a sudden it started working great. Has been flawless for the past few days, real happy! until today.. I left it on the roof of my car and it hit the road at about 55 and got ran over multiple times. I couldn't find it when i went back to try and save my sim for the trusty N1 but my Bluetooth earpiece came on when in the vicinity and i actually got a phone call when i was waiting to cross the road to pick up the carcass. Had to use the BT though unlocking on the screen would slice your fingers open. So now i'm back to a non responsive touchscreen! DAMMIT! I finished it off prying it open to get the sim, battery and SD card out. Asurion replacement to be here Friday.
I had the same problem after three weeks of the touch screen working perfectly. I followed the instructions in the touch screen issues thread and it fixed it!. I didn't even wait an hour like it said. Turn off your phone, take the battery out, put the back cover back on, hold the pet button for like 15 seconds then Open it up and put the battery back in and turn it on. Worked for me!

That process didn't work at all for me. Left the battery out for just over an hour. All screen issues of being unresponsive are still there. No fast scrolling and lockscreen issue getting quite bad. Can't get carousel at all anymore. And it takes about 5 tries to unlock lockscreen.

[Q] Help! Back key on Nexus S freezes.

Hello guys I was wondering if anybody else is having this problem, sometimes when I press the back key on my att nexus s it freezes for a couple of secs then it goes back to normal, it won't matter what I am doing it could be anything from visiting the marketplace to browsing the web its really annoying me a lot at this point.
If you know anyway how to fix this issue please let me know thanks.
I have the same problem, but it also happens with my menu and search keys. The individual backlight will dim and the phone freezes for 4-7 sec.

Not having this issue.
Sent from my Nexus S 4G
Is the phone freezing or is just the back key randomly not responding to touch? If its the latter, then you need to do an exchange. Common problem.
I used to have this issue but it eventually went away. It happened after they replaced my screen.
I used to have this and assumed it was a hardware thing, changing roms sorted it.
I have no idea why this is the case and when someone else said as much I thought it couldn't be the case but I'd suggest you flash a different ROM and see how you get on.
I have this problem also. Mine will go dark and exit out of anything I'm doing as if I was pressing it. Gets old sometimes

Multi tasking not really

If you have not noticed the one x is not really multi tasking. My GN does multi tasking different.
When I switch to an app on the GN, it freezes that state of that app and when I switch back to it, it's where I left off.
On the one x, it refreshes the app, not freeze it.
Is this something that can hacked to get it to work like the GN?
^This. O/S is randomly killing apps. I've frozen every possible culprit, switched launchers, etc. Keeps happening. I think it's HTC's battery paranoia and they've done something in the Kernel.

Yea I think a lot of us noticed this.
My biggest issue is the message app. When I go into, all of the messages display the numbers and not the name. It'll take a good 2-3 seconds before it refreshes and replace the numbers with names. This bothers me the most!
I've noticed it as well. It's really frustrating when you're listening to a podcast and Pocket Casts just dies. It's probably something in memory management. There's a tool floating around somewhere that lets you tinker with these values, I'll have to find it.
hmm i was wondering about this too. i thought ics was supposed to have really great multitasking but my ipad does multitasking way better in this case (resuming a game exactly where you were instead of just restarting it like it does now... really it's the same as just going and launching the app again...) come to think about it, its basically the same as the old hold down home and see the recently launched apps in gingerbread. would love to see it really resume apps that were closed...

[Q] Weird clicky noise when typing?

Hey guys,
Over the past few weeks I've realized a weird clicking noise when typing text messages. I do have "Vibrate feedback" enabled. Every time the phone vibrates from touch feedback, not only do I hear the normal sound of the vibration, but also an audible clicking noise. Is this normal? This sound was never an issue prior to a week ago.
Thanks
I get that too. It sounds like it's coming from inside the phone, not the speaker. But I think it's a common HTC one x flaw, because there are ALOT more people who have it also.
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
Try settings, language & keyboard, HTC Sense input, sound feedback.
On or off?
Sorry if I'm being captain obvious here, but I've overlooked simpler things myself.

probably the camera lens. put your ear next to the lense and lightly shake your phone. it's how the phone was designed
The noise surely isn't coming from the speaker. Maybe something loose within the phone? The lens noise is something I've noticed from the start, but this is unrelated.
Not something that is crazy annoying, but I was wondering if others had the same issue. Shaking the phone won't replicate the noise, and when I turn "Vibration feedback" off, the click will go away upon touching the screen.
It's a defect with the vibration motor. Of the 5 HOXs that I've gone through, 3 of them had it including my current one. It's annoying but it's the only problem my HOX has so I'm dealing with it.

Luckily I don't have this because I'm typing all the time. Seriously a lot. The camera lens click did worry me at first before I read this thread.
I occasionally get a clicky screen on the top though. Don't really press up there much.

yeah, it's how they designed it. I'm not sure the reasoning, but I do know that it was intentional
Using Swiftkey, I noticed that if I had my vibration duration too low (I think the default is 10ms) I would get the clicking and barely any vibration. Ramping it up at 20ms makes the vibration actually noticeable and the clicking stops. I think it may be the latency between you hitting the screen and the vibration motor kicking on that causes the clicking since (pulling numbers out of nowhere here...) the vibration motor may take 9.9ms to kick on after receiving a vibrate signal but at 10ms it receives an off signal so it just studders and causes a clicking noise.
Yea I get this too. This is my 3rd hox and all three have had it. I stopped worrying about it too much since I realized it has to be common. I noticed it after flashing different rooms since the vibration feedback when typing seems to feel more pronounced than on stock sense.

SwiftKey you can edit your own feedback. I set it to 20-25ms and it's fine.

I have the SAME exact thing. Definetely not the camera lens. Seems to be near the bottom of the phone. It's this clicky, poppy, tapping noise as if you are pulling apart two sticky objects. I agree that it seems like the vibration motor.
I had it on my desire gsm. I think its due to vibration kicking in.
Well I can try later, keyboard vibration off and see if it makes a click.
But never did annoys, I'm loving it actually, just like a typewriter.
Guys. It's the vibration feedback when typing. The response time must be different than the program time and it only kicks a little. I set my SwiftKey keyboard to 25ms vibration when typing. It's very nice. No clicks because it gives it enough time to vibrate and it feels good. Trust.

I'm have this same problem on a new HT 27 batch model. This is not just a SwfitKey typing issues a the capacitive buttons and the dialer all make the same clicky noise. I getting really bored of swapping my HOX now this is my third and what I thought was perfect is not. I will have to send my to HTC as it's out of the 28 days grrrr.
Mine has the same problem, it sounds and feels really wrong like it's scraping against something. I heard a friend who has the EVO 4g LTE say he has the same problem.
Makes me feel really bad about the phone, like they didn't care enough to test it properly.
Mine also does this if the vibrate feedback is enabled. I just disabled it and now I'm fine.

Sense getting very slow, restarts itself sometimes

Hi Folks
I have a stock HOX, over the last month or two sense has been getting veeerrrryy sloooow, so slow that when flipping between home screens I actually have to stop and wait as the screens judder across. This usually happens when I start using the phone after not haveing interacted with it for an hour or two or when it has just been turned on if it was off for some reason...
Most of the slowness goes after a couple of minutes, except for on the home button, most of the time I press it and nothing hapens so I press again and again, then all of a sudden all the home presses act at once at the screens start flipping around like crazy!
Also if the phone is on charge and screen is off I usually have to press the power button several times before the screen will trn on again...
Another issue that seems to also be cropping up is, especially while on charge, the phone will jsut turn itself off! Sometimes itwill restart again by itself, sometimes it doesnt!
Anyone have any solution to get my phone back in good health?

Bah! Egg on my face! Clearly I didn't read attentively enough.
My apologies. Your options are to factory reset or RUU, if neither of those work, It's a hardware issue.
Factory reset. I would also try another launcher to see if it behaves the same. I (still) have problems with sense being choppy but ONLY when I use the Yahoo mail official app, for some reason slows down the system considerably. I stopped using it all together and use the stock sense mail app and everything is going well now. You might have a rogue app, so i would try a reset.
