Strange pixels blinking.

I just get my HTC One X. Wonderful phone, but I have very uncomfortable issue with display. On majority of screens in menu or applications, especially on dark backgrounds, it shows dozens or even hundreds of white or red pixels staying or moving as you swipe. Please help, what I should do? Got some screenshots.

Just realized that you probably won't see any bad pixels on my screenshots. Sorry.

Take it back asap

Take it back, you should have no trouble exchanging it for a new one. Mine had one single dead pixel and they swapped mine for a new one. My new one even has the whiter display as opposed to the other one which had the yellowish tint.

looks like bad ram the gpu is using. Exchange it.

Thank you so much for your reply. But what if I bought it through RadioshackWireless, can I go to At&t store with that phone to exchange it there? Thank you.

I agree...I would exchange it...either a ram issue or the display is bad..HTC uses a few different companies to make their screens so it could just be bad...if bought at best buy at att, you should have no issue exchanging it..if amazon, you can still return but have to wait on shipping...

you will have to go to Radio Shack and have them exchange it, AT&T will tell you to take it back to them. If you got the the phone from Radio Shack Online then check your packing slip and make sure it doesn't have any specific instructions saying that you can only return it to them by mail. Hope this helps

What to do?

Hey XDA, I recently bought a One X about 5 days ago.
Since then I've replaced the phone 3 times, first and second replacements were for dead pixels, third was for a faulty Wi-Fi signal, now my fourth one which I'm currently using has light leaking through the sides and one of the capacitative buttons is not bright at all.
I'm getting really tired at this point and I really want to just find a good One X without problems. Any chance the grey ones have less issues? I doubt it but it's worth a shot at asking.

Ya. I remember reading about your hellish problems. Man. I don't wish that upon anyone. For both of you. Must have been a bad batch that got dropped or have a defective circuit board. Who knows.

I have a grey one x and to the left of the home capacitive button I see a tiny dot where light leaks through.. doubt that would be able to get me a replacement though
Sent from my One X using xda app-developers app

Still On My First
hmmm, I have read a lot about people getting damaged and faulty One Xs. I find that very interesting and wonder if it just bad luck, but with how many people have these problems, I wonder if HTC made a few bad batches and just didn't tell anyone about them. I am on my first One X, hopefully the only) and have been loving it ever since the day I got it. I haven't noticed any problems. Another interesting thing I have noticed is that people seem to say that their grey ones are just fine. I've got myself a grey one too and have had no issue either. Maybe it is only the white ones that had this problem. Hope you get a good one soon, or I even hope you decide to stay with the One X. Maybe you can try getting it from somewhere else that may noot have gotten a bad batch.

I would keep getting replacements until I got one that was perfect, or at least close enough. Something like a yellow tint in the display isn't a big deal, but dead pixels or broken wifi is.

I also bought a white one on launch day and have had no problems. Seems to be fairly common.

Thing about the wifi is, the wifi is a defect on almost all units. It was a mistake that HTC themselves actually acknowledged. It has something to do with the connectors being too far apart. My One X seems to disconnect frequently but it will only be for a few seconds, so I don't worry too much about it. Apparently the newest made devices have fixed this issue but I expect that it will be a little while before all of the old ones are sold. I hope this helps :highfive:

Cracked HTC One X

Hey guys so my dumbass did not have a case on my one x and cracked my screen is there any place I can take to get it fixed or anything I can do without paying up the ass. Any suggestions or options would be appreciated!
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app

I don't have any advice first hand but as far as suggestions are concerned, you might want to try one of the 14,726 other "I cracked my HOX's screen" threads in the first few pages of the forum. Odds are you might be able to find some decent info in one of them, but that would require a little effort and actually searching so I dunno if that is a feasible option or not.

Personally, I would only go down the official HTC route. From what others say, it's about $200. Of course there are your horror stories with HTC service, but I would tend to think that all the people that had a jolly experienece aren't rushing to XDA to post.
Good luck.
P.s., I am posting this assuming you don't have insurance.

I would do the same, if I cracked my screen. Unlike most other phones, replacing the screen on the One X is not a simple fix, due to how the casing is constructed. Going to a 3rd party repair shop has a high probability of inferior results like this, and not all that much cheaper (if at all) than going to HTC.

One of my customers cracked his screen two days after getting it. He has insurance, but I suggested contacting HTC to see what they would do. He eventually got a supervisor on the phone who capitulated and offered to fix it for nothing more than the cost of shipping. It's worth a shot.

Ok, I'm moving an average of 20+ miss posted threads every week. All question threads belong in the Q&A section only. The Q&A section is literally 2" below the general section. There' s a link in my signature, that will point you to the XDA Rules thread. I recommend you spend some time reading them.

Thank You.

Camera Lens Glass cracked

I cracked the glass on my camera lens. What can be done about fixing it??
I know insurance covers it, but only if I pay the $200 deductible. HTC can fix it for next to nothing in cost, but that requires I mail the phone to california, wait for it to be fixed and for them to mail it back.
I have found the entire back portion of the phone available on eBay for $40 however after closer look, these are all for the HTC One X, not the HTC One XL.
I was talking to a friend of mine and he says the glass is just a very thin piece of protection and you really dont need it so I should just remove it. As it is now, the camera takes extremely blury photos. Any ideas on how best to fix this? If the glass is not important, I might just remove it entirely but it'd be nice if I could fix it somewhat cheaply.

i have to ask how the hell did you crack your lens cover

I'm pretty sure it happened while I was working. I keep my phone clipped into my seidio active holster. The case keeps the phone protected quite well. I've dropped the phone from the height of 4-8' several times, without any adverse effects.
I know the night I was working on a large data/phone cabling job, I am sure I did not drop it. But when I went to take my photos, they all came out blury and I found its cracked. Has two cracks, forming sort of an X. I would bet you that it happened while I was working on the hard tile floor and rolled over on top of something hard like one of my tools or something. Possibly. Still unsure.

I did call AT&T warranty, I was told that they do not cover small issues like cracked glass on the camera lens. They will only replace the phone if it was not working... like a bad micro usb port or something. If I was more sleezy than I already am, I would break it so that I can get it replaced. But I'm not doing that.

THANKS joshua! thats just what I needed. Obviously sending it to HTC would be the proper way of fixing it however I CANNOT afford to be without my phone for even one day, let alone 2-3 weeks. $50 ain't bad, I'll do that.

As in covers, do you mean the housing? If so, that's the whole phone shell other than the screen because it's a unibody... From just looking, I'd just get thecamera bezel with the camera lens. Save some moneyy

Theres the link. According to my research, you cannot so easily just replace the glass. You have to replace the entire back cover, as its all in one.

superchilpil, I believe the link I just posted is for the HTC ONE XL. Should be, it says AT&T.

Ok I'm aware its all one piece, it's a unibody. But if theyre just selling the bezel/lens piece, it's probably just glued down, being screwed in a good chance also.

They have just the camera housing covers as well (like $4)
Now what someone needs to do is buy and 3d scan those covers and start 3d printing them in different colors

Read up a few posts bro the housing and lense seem to be fused together ( from what I saw when I took mine apart two days ago about to do it again just to be sure lol
