Anyone have a very SOFT power button that doesn't stick out - AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL

My power button doesn't stick out very much at all. It used to be a nice clicky button but now the slightest touch will turn the screen on and sometimes causes the phone to reboot from it holding itself down.
Anyone have the same issue who fixed it and is willing to shed some light?

Only way to fix it is to exchange it for another one. I'm on my 5th phone. Its annoying as hell.

I'm rooted. Will HTC still exchange it?

I have the same issue. I'd prefer not to deal with exchanging it so I'm hoping that when Sweep2wake comes to the latest rohan kernel I can substitute that for the power button.

[Q] APN and Capacitive buttons questions

I just got my One X and everything seems fine so far, though I'll need to go to AT&T tomorrow to setup a new sim, because as far as I know, My old SIM won't work with the LTE right? I have the one from my old captivate that I cut into a micro sim for an iPhone 4 and I put that in the One X and the APN settings are wrong because they're the settings from the iPhone 4 I'm assuming. If anyone can help me out with the APN that would be great.
Another question I have is regarding the capacitive buttons. Do they only come on in the dark or all the time? I noticed that they weren't on but I turned off my lights and they came on.
Thanks in advance
My button lights are on all the time.

Mine seem to react automatically also. My home button also doesn't light up while the other two button do light up, so Ithink I have a faulty unit.

I would exchange it because of your home button issue. But nice to know that yours are light sensitive

Mine respond to light as well.

If you put your finger over the light sensor (like a quater inch to the left of the AT&T logo) you can see that the capacitive buttons come on. Though I'm looking at mine right now and it seems like they don't go off automatically once I take my finger away.

Volume rocker problem

When I press the volume up or down, it presses them together.
Just like in this video:

Couldn't find how to fix this, solution anyone ?
To be honest, that sounds like a hardware problem.
But you could try removing the back cover and *GENTLY* press each of the buttons on the phone itself.
If that works you cover buttons got messed up.
Otherwise it's probably (but not 100%) a hardware problem.

It's still not working
probably hardware problem. annoying one.
Sorry to hear that.
It is an annoyance as you said, but these buttons are not a must, different apps, roms and mods can change the volume for you.

Power button

Hey guys. I'm coming from the HD2 where the power button (hardkey) if used for a long time would cause the digitizer to stop working due to some crazy reason I don't remember.
I would just like to know of the one on this phone can be weakened by being constantly used without worry of breaking down?

I haven't read anything about people's power buttons having stopped working myself however if you're concerned, you concerned, use swipe to wake for unlocking

Proximity sensor issue?

AT&T OneXL, rooted and running LiquidSmooth ROM, but I have had this issue on every ROM.
When I am on a call, somehow my face causes random apps or settings pages to come up. Tonight I put my phone in airplane mode in the middle of a call with a client. If I hold the phone at an odd angle (just the top edge touching my ear, angled away from my face) the screen stays off and it works, but I can't get the volume high enough to hear the other person.
Has anyone else had this issue? Any suggestions for a fix, either for the phantom face activation or a volume boost?
Sent from my One X using xda app-developers app
There is a "sorta" fix for this. When you initiate or answer the call, push the power button to manually make the screen sleep and you shouldn't have this problem any longer.

Thanks! So far this seems to work. I also have started using a wired headset at least when I am in the car, makes it a little louder.

[Q] Power Button hard to press

For the last year or so my lock button has gotten harder to press and doesn't have that "click" feel to it. Does anybody know why this is or how to fix it?
EDIT: my power button stopped working all together. If anybody knows how to fix this or turn my phone on without adb(to switch batteries), it would be greatly appreciated.

take off you back cover and see if the plastic button got somehow trim
try also to press the power button with a toothpick or with your finger
to check if you have the same hard pressing
I have 2 back covers and both of them seem fine. How can you tell if they got trim? I used my finger and a sharp object, they both turn it on but it feels the same

hmm, i don't know what else to suggest
did the device ever fell from your hands and hit in that spot?
if yes maybe it can cause that issue
well i tried to clean out the dust with a can of air and it blew out this little film thing and now it doesnt work at all hahaha but i got the device set up to use the vol up button as a power button but it is only recognized when it is powered on. does anybody know how to boot the device without adb? im currently using adb to start but its a pain to have a computer around to start the phone. i switch batteries a lot so its really inconvenient. btw i noticed that the phone doesnt turn off if you remove the battery in bootloader if it has a usb cable plugged in but i cant select any of the options without a power button
