Hi,
I'm new in the forum and I tried to see if this question was already discussed.
I had a hard time to find the HTC One S Black with the S4 CPU, finally found it in the US and I'm waiting for its delivery.
Ordered end of August, I'm wondering if there is a risk that the flaw related to the coating will be present. I think that I heard that HTC has corrected it?
Thanks for your help!

You got a black One S from the US? How exactly did you do that?

This isn't Q&A. This is for general discussion only. The coating comes off real easy, HTC never fixed it.

Hi Kamilr97, I searched an online shop to confirm the model and arrange the shipment.
Hi Brandonrz, sorry about that and thanks for the information.

Haha, don't be sorry . I was just telling you so other members don't get mad at you. The HOS is a great phone I don't think they even make the black model anymore. (also, so people don't get mad search the forums. If you can't find it then ask XDA.)
EDIT: They still make the black one, still not fixed though. Recommend you get a sick skin with a screen protector.

Thanks for the totally unhelpful list of results!
It'd probably be easiest getting a replacement battery cover :

Go for expansys with no hesitation: i ordered already one there and i received it in a few days, good package and nice tracking service
Okay guys this is my first post here. I am writing this with a huge concern so I wanted to know if this is happening to you
I am from Argentina, I ordered my AT&T HTC One X at eBay and received it yesterday. I need the phone to be unlocked so that I can use it here
Turns out both two of the sites I tried on return the unlock code was "Not found". I am quite desperate, as you may know it's not nice to buy a 500 dollar phone not to use it.
I was wondering if any of you guys happen to be in the same situation than me, and if we can find a solution.
Thank you very much, (and sorry for my not so good english )

Try this one, I've used it and it worked for me.
Check your IMEI number before paying and I hope it works for you.
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=190694174164&ssPageName=ADME:X:AAQ:US:1123
How long has it been since you unlocked it? Did you use the 5 dollar or the 25 dollar listing?
Thanks for the fast response
The whole process took about 10 min. for me.
I payed only $5.77
I paid $19.99 at a different site, where if they don't send you the code in like an hour they refund you immediately. Lmk if the other one doesn't work.

Ok. Thanks for responding. What I really need to know is how long ago (days, weeks) have you done the unlocking. I want to figure out if this is happening to all ATT One X's or just to unfortunate me
Seems like I am a jynx with this cellphone stuff
I unlocked it about 2-3 weeks ago. Came in fast and no problems.
Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk 2
Ok... so it seems there are no codes available right now...
FML!
What do you suggest guys? Please! I need to know if there's a chance I can get my phone unlocked in the near future.
Do you know if there is any senior member or specialist who knows about this stuff?
Thanks for the help

I had the same issue. I tried cellunlocker.net and it returned "not found", then I tried an ebay unlocking service that also didn't work.
Finally, just now, I tried the ebay-er listed in this thread above and it worked. I received the unlock code in 5 minutes. I have a One X from Rogers (same as ATT) and I used the following listing:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/32091354661...X:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649#ht_2554wt_1413
You could try the ATT listing from the same seller.
Hello pal, I have already tried, returned not found. This is unbelievable. I have such a bad luck with these things! I don't know what to do, I think I am returning the phone. FML :crying:

Same problem. Did you get any solution?
I've been through the same situation. Tried cellunlocker, eBay, and countless others with all giving me the "code not found" email. Called ATT and they said they wouldn't provide the code until November.

This is really frustrating. I contacted unlockers from ebay. They say try after one month. Can we trust them?
I dont understand how people have unlocked HTC ONE X before?

Hi, I'm new posting, I had the same problem, my HOX returned in every single service "Not Found" Today I entered to a page and I put may IMEI into the verification and they say they have the code, I tried and they gave me the code in less than 5min! I was shocked because I searched for my unlock code more than 6 months and finally I have my HTC working! this is the page: htccode . com
The price is $15 because they search in the "ULTRA 2014 Database" Hope it work for all your!
Sorry if I misspelled some words, my English isn't good.

i'm thinking about buying a chinese gsm/dual-sim phone, but i really don't know much about them. i 've done a bit of research on them, and came across a gnex clone (MT6575, approx $150) but other than that, i have no idea what to get or even where to look. i've looked at lightinthebox.com, but would like some suggestions and/or advice. does anyone have experience with these (bootleg) things? i'm weary of buying one as i've not been able to find reviews that i trust.

Not that I can tell. The fix is very easy, unscrew 7-8 screws put on replacement. Screws back in the back and profit.
Problem...can't find the damn replacement part that works for VZW and Samsung won't send a replacement part.

Do you wonder why you aren't getting a warm reception?
First there is this exact thread posted by someone else already going in this forum, at one point it was literally right on top of yours. Second is your attitude. Mistawolfe asked if you had googled it and you came back with a smart ass response...
Next time you're along for help lose the attitude if you really want someone to help you. Until then you can find your own part as far as I'm concerned.
I am glad I found this...I was going to order the international version as well because mine has a scratch on it.
Would really love a link as well..I have googled to no end. All I can find is the cemera replacement module itself.

We all know how to use Google. Some of us were looking for help or solutions. Obviously we didn't find them on Google or this site. That's the reason for this thread. Please provide useful help and information. Don't think that's a lot to ask.

Hi guys,
I've bought my HTC One XL directly from Australia, through Telstra. But now I live in Brazil
Well, I bricked my phone pretty hard. I even bothered reading all the topics about my stituation to see if there was any available solution. Turns out there isn't.
Well, at least through the community. From what I gathered, HTC is able to refurbish it and send it back - or at least exchange for another one.
The problem is, since this device is not sold in Brazil, HTC-Brazil simply don't do any kind of repair on it. So, my only hope lives in a good australian soul accepting to receive my phone and do me this big favour of checking if HTC-Australia would help me - even if I have to pay some technical fee.
I know this forum is not exacly for something like this, but I'm out of ideas. And since my investment was pretty big and I can't afford another one right now, I'm here begging for some help.
If this good soul exists, please, PM me so we can go through details.
Thanks in advance!
I feel you man..what'd you do to your phone? And when you get on the phone with HTC Australia tell them the truth I've seen them take pity on some people for flashing the wrong thingss and making it free to recover

Thanks man. Well, I was absolutely used to the HOX with Tegra 3, once I got the XL I thought I know almost everything. It worked well for a while, but things went sour when I tried to downgrade. I think it corrupts some stuff on the phone, and after that I think it's not possible to install a RUU. Well, I tried to anyway and found out that the hard way.
I was already pretty honest with them. I talked to them online, told them the whole story, but they said they could do nothing for me since I was in Brazil. And, as I said, HTC-Brazil was completely useless, since they don't sell this device here.
That's why I'm trying to find some help from an australian mate here at the forum. 'Til now, I had no success.
I found a guy who does JTAG here in Brazil. Since I'm having a hard time doing it trough HTC, I think I'll try this one last resort. I think I got almost nothing to lose by now.
What exactly do you need someone to do for you?

Hey timmaaa!
I'd need that person to give me an address to send the device, and after that I'd use this address to ask HTC what should I do.
Possibly I'd need it to be sent to HTC or Telstra.
But it's ok, by now I took the second possibility. I sent it to be used in a test with Riffbox. Now all I have to do is pray, as much as I can.
Anyway, thanks for replying!
Hey radjan! Check out mobiletechvideos.com they do jtagging service for about 80$ ...and its an honest site

Thanks man. I found int while I was doing my research yesterday.
Anyway, I found another site, a brazilian one (amigoandroid.com.br) which does the same service. I called him, and he sound pretty good technically, even explaining to me why jtagiing the Tegra version is a no-go. Also, I found some pretty good reviews about him in some brazilian forums.
He also explained to me that this process for the One XL is still in beta testing. But, as I said, I got pretty much nothing more to lose. For me it's ok if it ends up bricked if it makes future bricked devices come back to life.
Beside that, the price is basically the same, but I save money from the shipping and save some time I'd use to explain brazilian customs that the device was already mine, that I was sending it for repair and yadda yadda.
Anyway, thanks for the help. Will keep posted and, in cade anyone ends up screwed like me, they may fin a light at the end of the tunnel.
