Wow...thought it was just me. I like the phone but I seriously thinking about selling it on ebay before the folks at ATT realize that they won't be able to give away this phone for free. I keep trying to look past the hype about the phone and find something positive to say about it and I really can't find much. The Wifi and bluetooth are horrible. HTC decided to go the rout of the iPhone and have a none replaceble battery and no expansion slot. If I wanted that I would have got the iPhone. I stuck with Android because they were different then the iPhone...after this release I don't know. And then they make the phone so light and plastic like that you really don't feel like you paid for anything. If I wanted that I would have bought samsung phone...LOL!!!
I must be one of the few... since upgrading from the original 1.73 I've had zero problems....

Yeah I have the HTC Vivid and the One X, the Vivid has all full wifi bars and the One X is laying right next to it with 1 wifi bar flickering on and off. I have to keep toggeling the wifi off and on to get it to download anything. Today I swapped the sim card with a sim card adapter to used my Vivid all day with no problem. Now that I have been using the Vivid I'm thinking about selling the One X.
I'm hoping I'm in my 30 day window when the GS3 comes out, I just want to exchange it
My Wifi issues subsided with 1.82 and still now with 1.85. Strange that an update would solve the issue for some and not others... Only significant problem I have now is the ****ty multitasking.

Well it surely not the worst phone HTC has ever put out, but surely not the best quality wise. The Vivid is a much more solid feeling phone and not plastic feeling, but the sense 4.0 is nice on the HTC One X...still not enough to make me want to keep it, because i'm sure sense 4.0 will be ported for the HTC vivid soon now that the One x has been released. I have about 2 weeks left before I can return it..but I don't want to pay a 35.00 restocking charge.
I'm having issues with WiFi too (doesn't disconnect from WiFi when out if range)...but when its connected its very strong and never loses its signal.
I don't know what problems you're having with blue tooth, but I haven't had any problems. I run with the phone using wireless headset, stream music to my computer and use hand free in car. Bt seems to be ok.
I'm fairly certain that all of us that have WiFi problems will get it resolved with future radio updates. Its still a very new phone.
(counting my blessings)... i'm running CleanROM 2.1 and have no wifi issues here. when i'm out of range it disconnects and when i'm back in range it connects without issue. my Advanced WiFi settings only has Network notification checked, and that was the default setting. as an FYI, i'm using a FiOS ActionTech router (have no clue who the maker is) and a D-Link router as well. i also do not have any task killers running in the background.
bluetooth with my car and my Q2 and Plantronics Headsets is working without issue as well. (hope i don't have to return later and edit this post!)
All this talk about how horrible it is and we haven't even had an update yet. Why don't you wait to pass judgment untill the official update? Which update are y'all takin about anyway? The Asian 1.88? Or the week old 1.85? None are official updates, they are leaks. You can't judge the phone off of unofficial leaks.. At least wait for something official before you put the noose around it. I've had most of the flagship devices and this is by far the best even with bugs. They will get fixed.
Edit Bluetooth hooked up to my pioneer avic bt130 sounds amazing (slacker,tune in, spotiffy, audio galaxy) with hertz audio mille components front and rear and 2 12w6s in the trunk. I sometimes forget and think I'm on iPod (aac 256 & losless) input
I'm on 1.85 and still have wifi issues. So I turned back on best wifi performance and its just as good as my iPhone 4s was with wifi and I don't think it uses much more battery. My at&t signal is no ware near as good as my iPhone. I'm hopping they fix that. The phone seems to have a lot less lag on 1.85

Hey all,
I came from the Lumia (yeah, what a nightmare that was) to the HTC One X. It was definitely great to come back to Android. But, I've had the phone for 2 days now and already noticed two problems.
When I was at work yesterday, I noticed the 4g icon at the top looked like it was only sending data, but would never receive it. After about 30-45 seconds it would come back, but during that time, I couldn't do anything on the phone that required the use of data. I tried a factory reset, and it seemed to work just fine. Then on the way home from work, it did the same thing again.
Also, when my wife and I were watching TV last night I got a phone call and could barely hear the phone ring. I checked the volume and it's all the way up on all three sliders in the settings. I tried changing ringtones, and that didn't help.
So, I'm on my 5th phone now with AT&T since April 21st. 4 Lumia's and now this One X and they've all had issues. I'm really at my boiling point now.
Does anyone have any suggestions? I know one of my options is just to take the phone back to the store and swap it for a replacement, but I'm wondering if anyone else is seeing these two issues with their One X? I've Googled it, and there are quite a few threads about each issue, but here on XDA I don't see too many. I trust this forum more than any other.
I really wanted to love this phone too!

What's odd is that all day yesterday it seemed fine. It seems time was just the key here. We'll see how this goes.
You can make your own ringtone with any MP3 and any software for sound editing (like SounForge). You can cut some part of the song and make it louder (I advice you to make a preset for equalizer with 120-140% louder and no 60Hz frequency)
P.S. Sorry for my bad English.
I have been having the same issues with the volume with my one x. I emailed HTC about the problem then it auto corrected itself. It all started after this at&t 1.85 update. I haven't factory reset yet, which is what HTC recommended, I hope that enough people complain so HTC actually does something about it. I love the phone though.

Hi!
Let's get straight to the point.
I just got a Skyrocket (Canadian Version) last week on Craigslist and I am having a blast with it-- wonderful phone. There is only one problem, though... my in-call audio would not work. When I put a call on speakers, I can hear the other side, but when I am using the actual call speakers located at the top of the front screen, I cannot hear anything. If I reboot the phone, it will work for about say 4 times... and then it will be borked again. Also, I noticed one time that when the background of the other phone is loud, that is when the problem would arise.
Should I go back to complete stock and see if that fixes it? Or is it a hardware issue?
Do a complete odin wipe back to stock, and use it for a couple days. If that doesnt work i suspect the seller knew of the issue, and sold u a borked phone.
I've experienced the exact issue as well. I upgraded a few weeks ago and on day 3 of having the phone, bam, in mid call the default call audio speaker went out. I was on Sky-ICS at the time. I flashed different radios despite knowing that couldn't have been it, went all the way back to stock and nothing worked.
I concluded that it was a hardware issue, or a software issue that was beyond anything a flash, battery pull, or tweak could fix. For whatever reason, the call audio muted the default speaker, yet rerouted to the loud speaker with no problem. So I took it back to the store, explained it to the sales rep and got a new Skyrocket.

So I have had since day one of getting my S3 considerably less of a cell signal than my droids in the past (zero data issues, stock, un rooted, rooted, multi-rommed, bad signal). Trouble shot everything I could think of, finally had vzw send me a new device. Just got the new phone, popped in sim, set up, same thing, bad cell signal (not the sim, did that twice). In the Boston area, it's not a network thing, it's the device.
Now, I have a small dent on my phone, do I go through the effort to return to stock and send back my original device to not have a dent anymore and keep the "new" refurbished phone? Or keep my already customized original NEW phone?
This is a tough one, I hate the dent, but like knowing I have a brand new device.
Next thing, I assume at this point that the S3 just does not get as good reception as other phones. Any mods that can help? Love this phone so much that I will deal with a bad signal, but would rather not.
Please offer some valid, valuable input on what I should do. Have 4 days to send one of these back.
Thanks

Why would you go back to the original one, the replacement has a dent on it, not good and still issue.You should call support and get another one. Just tell them the replacement has a dent on it. The S3 has weak signal (2-3 bars where I live and I owned 3 of them), but never had call or connectivity issue. So I would ask for another one.
No, my original has a dent on it from when I dropped it, but it is a new phone. Replacement is cosmetically new, but a refurbished phone. Both have same basic signal issue, not as good as my droids in the past.

i got mine about a week ago, i wonder if they would replace mine (got a crack in it) if i complained about bad reception in my house, because i only get 1 bar here. https://sphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-snc7/s720x720/386262_10151093476528557_832449593_n.jpg

Ok got you, when you said signal issue, do you have drop calls or just low signal bar? if you have drop calls then I would try another one and if problem stills exist then you should get another brand. S3 does have low signal compared to other droid phones...or maybe the iphone 5?
The signal strength will be a little weak. The real question is does it drop calls or is the call quality really bad (ex..voice cutting out). Try your phone in different areas and if you have none of those issues then your phone is normal.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app
I'll forget the implication that an iPhone would be even close to a viable replacement for my S3!
But no, not willing to change to a different device. There are dropped calls in "bad areas" that my droid would not drop in, but I can live with it. Hoping for some jacked up fix that could possibly be recommended.
And, keep original new dented device, or return to stock and send back in favor of replacement refurbished device.... Tough one!
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda premium
Personally I would return your original and start over with the replacement. Put a case on it. And wait for a signal fix from Samsung.
My friend got a replacement because the vibrator died on his first one. He is now in a replacement vicious cycle and is on #7 right now Each of them have had major issues like extreme overheating etc. His newest one won't connect to wifi. So just keep that in mind, once you get in the replacement cycle you will be getting phones that have been "repaired" for other potentially worse things.
With any samsung CDMA phone you can expect to drop more calls and have a worse signal than you would on an HTC or Moto device by a decent margin.

This. Also remember that the bars are NOT universal you would have to look at the dBm. From what I've read you need to use the same app on both phones in order to get a correct reading since all of the manufacturer seem to report the signal strength in various ways.
This may or may not help..
I have found that the VRLF2 baseband works better on my phone than the lastest G1 baseband. Worth a shot to try it if you haven't.
Of course the basebands can be found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1788313
That's the stuff I'm interested in. Changing baseband version, radio, etc. But I know nothing about it. I'll start researching your link.
I think I'll be sending the refurbished one back, I'll just be paranoid if things stop working. My device now is mint except for the signal.

I personally would keep the original depending on how bad the reception is... Is it just moderately below what you are used to or significantly? The samsung devices have crappy radios period. Considering they now are running the show far as top of the line android they may pay attention and start implementing better radios for our GSIII.
If it is just moderately lower than normal, I would keep the original(youre not gonna get any better with a replacement) and put a case on it that hides the dent. There ARE three different radios you can flash to see if maybe one works better for your area. Check this MODEM THREAD out and try the different radios... do it for a day on each one at least to see if one is better for you and your area than the other. Sometimes ROMs do affect your reception also. I personally think that running a stock TouchWiz ROM gives me a little better 4g signal than running a AOSP ROM but it's such a small difference I'm willing to sacrifice it for the other benefits of AOSP.
At this point, I can't agree enough. I think the key element that verizon has failed to point out to me is that Samsung's do not compare to other devices for reception. I kept getting false hopes that this was a problem that could be fixed, and it cannot. I did just try another radio with no prevail, but again, the signal is functional, just not as good as my droids in the past. I have not noticed any significant changes between rom's though, but I think that's good. Definitely keeping my original, why take a refurb if it offers no functional value other than not having a dent!

That's with some ROMs that for whatever reason default to having the LTE unchecked.
i think this signal issue gets blown out of proportion...i never drop calls on my s3 and signal is great. i performed a side by side comparison against my mother in-law's razr, her device pulled -102db, my s3 pulled -107db...also at that signal i pull 12-14mb/s LTE.
I’ve had my One S for 4 weeks now and every week brings a different problem plus it would appear to be worse since the 4.0.4 update.
1. Intermittent microphone problems.
2. Intermittent reboots with error reports.
3. Mobile data dropping out or won’t switch off or back on.
4. Complete loss of network signal after long period of shut down.
5. Aeroplane mode locked the phone completely requiring a reboot.
Don’ know whether to send back to the store who might not find anything wrong because most of the problems are intermittent, or contact HTC ???
Wish I had stuck with my One V!!!!

I have the loss of signal issue, mostly indoors. Never had that issue with my other phones. It is worrying me cause I just purchased this phone on a new contract and only have about 5 more days to decide if i want to keep them or not? With this issue and seeing all the terrible issues in the custom ROM's I am afraid I will hate this phone compared to my GNex. I understand Jellybean has not been officially released yet so there will be issues but is there any ICS ROM's that run without issues? My past experience with less popular phones is we can never get a truly great daily driver. Any reassurance will be greatly appreciated!

I got this phone last Thursday as a replacement to my Galaxy S2.
So far i'm getting less reception in my house than my S2 had.
Also, when I'm at work, it goes from Full 4G service, to NO bars, and then to 2G, and back to Full 4g. WTF?

It's a shame because I REALLY like this phone. Feels great in the hand, build quality is fantastic, and overall it's super smooth and fast.
I hate to give it up, but I can't have signal issues like this at home. Even the wifi calling has had a couple issues so far.
I need my phone to work, plain and simple.
Thinking I might go with the Galaxy S3. Probably the only phone that will make me not miss this one so much.

I'm quite sure if you went with the Galaxy Nexus you wouldn't miss this phone either.
I suppose you have fought with your service provider just like I am right? HTC is telling me to try a different back cover and/or do a factory reset. they claim they are not hearing any issues like this with this phone. I kind of figured I would have issues because Cincinnati Bell does not get the best phones, I had major issues with their XT720. I should have known better. This is why I just bought the GNex from Google, I was gonna avoid signing a new contract then CBW offered me such a great deal on 5 new phones if I resigned so i went with it.
I just tested calls with my galaxy nexus and the HTC one S by calling each other and I got to say call quality with the HTC is much better. Louder and more clear. But I am running a sound volume tweak for my Gnex and it doesn't prove to be louder with in call volume. I will have to get rid of that tweak and see the difference

But I am running a sound volume tweak for my Gnex and it doesn't prove to be louder with in call volume. I will have to get rid of that tweak and see the difference

Problem is that I don't want to spend the money on the Nexus. I got the One S as a warranty replacement, so I'm not spending any money. I'd have to shell out cash to get the Nexus.

I reflashed my ROM on my GNex and now the sound quality for both are exactly the same.

Well if it is a new warranty replacement it comes with a new 12month warranty, sell the one S to earn the money for the GNex. I have both and personally I like the GNex better. So many ROM's and kernels to choose from and none of the issues with the Gnex that i see here with the One S. Besides, by the time the One S get's jellbean, Gnex will be getting Key Lime Pie!
I noticed something else today...
If I look closely at my screen, there seems to be some banding going on, as if there is radio intereference with the screen's signal. Like what happened on old tv's when the signal wasn't coming in perfectly clear.
Anyone else experiencing this???
