I cant believe I went through 6 devices.
The first 4 had the same problem. Old text messages would send themselves to the last 2 people I texted, at random. 4 in the afternoon or 3 in the morning. I was annoying my friends all the time. 5th device came with damage (stuck power button would turn the phone off by itself)
Last device, the one im using now is stuck in landscape for no apparent reason. Dock mode is on and I cant turn it off. Something is making my phone think its on. Called AT&T, complained, told them about how many devices ive been through. Initially got denied, asked to speak to a manager. Got denied again, they offered a year-early upgrade for no charge, but I denied that. After about 30 minutes of back and forth, they decied to send me a blue GS3 that should be here this week
The phone has been good to me when it worked, but Im tired of getting replacements.
Lol, I bet you have problems with the gs3 too.

Aside from the stuck power button (which is just a hardware problem)... maybe it's a bugged program (or virus attachment) that you keep installing on your new devices? What happens if you DON'T install your usual programs on your latest device? Try it out for a week, and then you can start to pinpoint the rogue application. Don't use your phone to connect to any email either, and then you can narrow down if it's an application or data problem.

Exactly. The problem the first four "phones" had was almost undoubtedly NOT a hardware problem, and I'm amazed and dismayed that you got them to replace your phone (dismayed because that cost gets passed on to everyone else, AND the more people do this the less likely people with legitimate problems are going to get their problems addressed... boy cries wolf syndrome, if you will)
When my GS II was randomly shutting down they made me try a phone with NO apps installed other than what came pre-installed, for a week to eliminate app issues. And because I was desperate, I did.
I have had the text issue when texting people on T-Mobile. Only certain people on T-Mobile. Theirs would come to me several times, or mine would go to them duplicated or delayed and they would get like 5 at once. Never did figure out the cause, it just stopped on its own. This was a few years ago, though. In this case I would expect some app on your phone. The XDA does this thing that if I post an image on the forum, like an hour later I get a toast that my reply was successful, and find it duplicated my post.

I'm currently on my 4th One X replacement device. The first three replacements and the original had screen flex issues along the side, and in the middle. One of the replacements had a faulty power button. They offered a make/model change for free, and that meant instead of continually sending the White One X, they sent the Grey. It was either that, or DOWNGRADE to a cheaper phone.
Needless to say... The 4th one still has these issues. But I'm tired of dealing with AT&T because it really hasn't been resolved. I could keep complaining, and eventually if it gets worse I will.

My first HOXL had the same screen problem. Went to one att store, explained the problem and they turned me away. Went to another store nearby, explained the problem, and they went into the back and got me a brand new one no questions asked. Just try different stores, maybe you'll get lucky like me.

or, if you only want to hit one place, google the nearest att Device Support Center. if it isn't too far of a drive, i can't imagine they'll ever turn anyone away. their primary function is to fix or replace your phone (if it's within the 1 yr mfr warranty). no receipt needed... they'll bring up your account. (don't give them a device that's been visibly tampered -- revert back to stock, etc)

You can't exchange for a new phone in-store beyond the first 30 days. After that, you go through warranty and its all refurbs. As previously mentioned, you can go to that a Device Support Center, but they will still be refurbs, but at least you can test them out before leaving the place.
Multiple defective refurbs are common, and even the same issue. But the 4 in a row with the exact same text issue is odd, if not suspicious. Are you migrating any backed up data like SMS? Might even be a network related problem.
Ironic user name is ironic.
I have never had issues with this phone.. something is up..

Title says it.
Doesn't matter what I'm doing, any app, any time, it will randomly vibrate and go back as if I hit the back button.
It seems to happen especially when I tap something.
Ex. On the xda android app, I tap into a thread, loads up, I feel my phone vibrate and it goes back.
Its really frustrating. I never noticed it until I started flashing roms. I always flash back to stock & wipe data bla bla bla so I know I'm not doing anything wrong there.
Anyone?

It might be a malfunctioning button. I had a similar issue with my home button where the phone would go nuts at random times with the screens switching back and forth. It's pretty rare, but when it happens it's usually hardware related.

How are you screwed? Backup with TiBu, flash back to stock w/ ODIN and take it to a AT&T repair center and they can swap you out with another device.
I got this on upgrade through Amazon. At&t wont swap it unless I got it through them. Only way I can do it is through Amazon and my 30 days are already up so Idk how that would work...

Not true. I bought my Captivate from Radioshack and the AT&T warranty center replaced the phone for me w/o any issues. As long as you did not buy it from a guy who found it when it fell-from-the-truck, it should be fine.

Mine also does this, instead I've noticed it does it with the home button. Mine causes it to trigger the search button. I've noticed since I've switched to Froyo though that the problem doesn't occur as often, but it still does it probably once or twice a day.

What ROM are you running? I am having the same issues, but I have it with both the back AND the Home buttons. It seemed to not be as bad with the Stock JF6
I've went to the AT&T Warranty Center with a phone that refused to turn on/charge/etc.
All they asked of me was my phone number. They checked the phone out, etc. and gave me another one.
I think I might have figured it out. I work in a warehouse in Spokane Washington and right now its colder than tits out. Might be the phone getting to cold. Ill know after today n ill let you guys know

Mine does it in a warm room, outside, freakin anywhere. BUT I did switch from stock JF6, off of a Vibrant ROM. It hasn't happened once today.
I also found out that as far as the repair centers go, if you get a new device you are VERY lucky. Most of the time you are going to get a referbished item. They go in range from the 1006-1010 phones.

I've got the same problem going on with my captivate. I tried a couple different ROM's to see if it had any effect. It was happening on Perception build 4, Axura RC1, and on stock. I'm guessing it's a hardware issue, but if someone's found a solution, please keep us updated!
I have the same problem but with the search button. It happens everywhere, but the other night it was freezing so i was sitting next to a space heater and it really wigged out.

Okay guys---first post after lurking and learning for awhile. Try not to ROFL with this suggestion. I've owned my captivate for a bit over a month. Before ever turning it on I put a high-priced screen protector in place. Immediately I was plagued with the problem of the buttons doing things without asking. Press the home button and get search, vice versa and every possible combination. Took it back to the phone shop and this 15-year old looking sales guy took one look and asked if I minded if he trimmed a quarter of an inch off the bottom of the screen protector. I said no and in five minutes I left with a captivate that no longer mis-fires with every touch. Now, I suppose you guys with this problem don't even have a screen protector in place.

I have a screen protector and I've considered that being the problem. Haven't used my phone much today so I haven't really noticed it but it has happened a few times...especially in the xda app. Ugh this phone is gonna be the death of me

Should not matter. I was past 30 days. I would've returned the phone and avoided the hassle if it was in 30 days. Surprisingly it took me less than 5 minutes to get a replacement phone in the warranty center.
All they asked me was the phone number of the account and name on the account and my ID to confirm that I was the owner of the phone. No receipt was asked.

I found out from the service center in my area. 0-30 days, brand new phone. 31 days-1 year, most likely a referb phone, but you could get lucky and get a new one. Over 1 year you're SOL.
I have a 1007, and was offered a 1008. The ranges run from 1006-1010, 1010 being the newest batch, and I of course was going for a 1010. I decided to skip the 1008, and wait to see if they got any new shipments in.
I'd been have tons of problems with the buttons on mine, the Home and Back were mental! I went back to stock JF6, I only had a couple random presses of the back button. Right now I'm running Assonance 2.0, it's i9000JK3 based and Modem. Not a single random pressed all day today. I had pretty heavy use today
so i did some tweaking on my phone and i think it's fixed, at least for now. i found that the stock jf6 rom had the most issues with it, so i flashed jh3. from there, i flashed up to perception7, and i haven't had the issue again yet.
Hey, I have problems with my screen. I cant pull the ring in bottom to unlock screen and taking pictures or start videorecord. and a lot of things in the screens bottom. I have to try 3-6 times before it respond.
I am a regular user of touch screen so I am not that amataur. Do u think the screen is broken or software? any one else with this problem?
The first phones made have this error. The man in shop told me. so its a production error. i must wait about 14 days to get it back.

While we are talking about the screen here, has anyone had problems accepting calls? On very hot days, when the phone heats up a bit in the pocket, I am completely unable to accept a call - the screen simply doesn't respond, but does so after the phone call attempt has ended.
I am though scared to contact customer support since my Desire is still in repair (sent in 3 times) since end of March.

Froschfinger: sounds like you have the same problem as me.
Takk for det, you are having the same heat problems like I do? Wasn't really keen on walking through all the touchscreen-related threads in detail, but didn't find out about heat problems of others so far. I have one of the early Vodafone devices.
check here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1140997
they are talking about the same thing, maybe you'll find a solution.
I have the same problem, its actually pretty random and doesn't always happens but is getting annoying.
I contacted customer support to probably find a solution to the problem. She told me to do a soft reset, i.e. pull out the battery while the phone is running, leave it out for some minutes and insert it again. Furthermore she told me that older sim cards can cause problems with newer phones, something I hadn't heard of before (she was talking about three to four years old sims). So far haven't had any problems with unresponsiveness, but an unnoticed shutdown, plus it's significantly colder outside so it might not happen too soon again.
After update 2.3.4 the problem is gone. screen working perfecktly.

Capacitive touch screens don't like heat. You have static problem which in conjunction with heat make phone unusable at times. Check fix for touchscreen thread, plus my thread on how to keep phone at bay, so it doesn't do it again.
My friend is about to be on his third one.
First one had the force close problem where everything would FC. Doesnt matter if you wipe it, factory reset it, new ROM, stock ODIN, it would keep happening.
Second one had a broken mic. Voice to other people were completely muffled.
Third one is coming Friday. Verizon refuses to send him a different phone.

I have had this phone since it came out and I love it, I have had no issues at all. Every phone comes out has some bad apples (pun intended). but this phone is a great phone in my opinion. I hope the third one will change your opinion on the phone cause it has treated me well. As a final note I have used odin and cwm and all kinds of different roms, kernels, updates, themes, and everything with no problems
Every problem I have had with this phone has been fixed by software updates except for the weak signal reception, but i guess that is what you get when you buy Samsung.

I've enjoyed the phone except for one problem. I'm calling Verizon tonight to maybe get a replacement. On more then half of long phone calls that are over ten minutes, the phone makes a clicking noise and then the other person can't here me anymore. Happens daily.
I'm considering burning my upgrade for the Nexus. If only the One X was coming to Verizon, or anything quad core for that matter.

I think the key statement of the Op is "different phone". I too am on the 4th CLN charge for the clicking and popping on calls lasting more than 10 minutes. The irony is my current phone was perfect until the FP1 update, then the clicks started happening again. I tried to get verizon to send me a different device but was told the manufacturer has only approved them to send CLN phones out. When I asked what verizon's policy was, all I got was silence. Apparently they don't care that I spend $2200 per year for a family plan that a $200 phone can ruin. They aren't making money on handsets, it's all in the service.

Love my charge
I've had two charges, both refurbs since they offered it to me after dealing with a lot of annoying problems with my fascinate. The first one was great, had a bit of a static issue on phone calls but easily dealable, but my usb controller crapped out after about three months so I could no longer flash anything through odin (which is simply unacceptable to me). VZ sent me a replacement and after customizing it and getting the latest software I have not had a single problem since, no static issues on calls, and ridiculously good reception even in my bunker of a house. Hands down my favorite phone I've ever owned.
Static, static, and more static. Even with the last update. I can deal with it, because it's my work phone, and almost always use bluetooth.
When I talk on the phone with my gf (the only time I talk with anybody for more than 5 minutes), she says she hears the clicking and then I disappear. I can hear her, but she can't hear me. It's been happening as long as I can remember, so I went back to stock and took all the updates. Not rooted at the moment, and if the call problem happens one more time I'm buying the Nexus.
As long as you have the warranty on your phone you can get as many refurbs as you like. Or you can request for a new phone from Verizon if your tired of having problems out of your phone. I started with a Driod 2. From there: Droid X, iPhone 4 ( black 8gb), Droid X2, LG Revolution, Droid Bionic, Droid Charge, Samsung Stratosphere, then funny enough back to the Droid Charge. This is all the phones they have sent me during my two year contract which ends this September. So this comes to show that if you have an issue with your phone verizon as all about customer satisfaction. So if your unhappy with your phone just complain. They will set things straight. And in case anybody is wondering I just like to play and mod different phones. Was really regretting getting rid of the iPhone 4 but Tweaked v2.0 rom by dwitherell has really made me happy to be a Charge owner. The rom is super stable and super quick. No lockups or lag. And the theme is just beautiful.
---------- Post added at 09:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:25 PM ----------
InfinityROM by imnuts is another rom that will make your Phone run better (if you can handle all the hotboots). If only dwitherell could add the TouchWiz 4 launcher from Infinity to Tweaked v2.0 I'd be in heaven!
This is my second One X the first one I got had a problem with the top half of the touch screen, it wouldn't respond to touch, so I swapped it out.
Now my second one has a very bad light leak on the bottom and phone calls can become muffled and even drop. I've already tried factory resetting the phone with no luck.
My question is, even though I already exchanged it once can I still go to the store and exchange it again or is it a one time thing?
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
I think if there are problems with the phone you can return it until you get one that doesn't have those issues. I'm pretty sure the one time return is if you bring back a phone and get a different one. They won't let you keep doing that.

okay great, thank you
now all i need to do is find a corporate store with one in stock
Anyone else having connectivity issues with their one x? If the phone loses connection for any length of time, it will not reconnect and I'll have to reboot the phone for the mobile network to reconnect, which is probably every 15 minutes or so in my case.
I skimmed a couple pages, couldn't find anything, but I've found a couple other forums with people posting about this issue.
Hoping there's a fix for this as every ATT store within 50 miles is out of stock on both colors and customer care won't do a damn thing for me but tell me "go back to the store." Bull**** if you ask me, broken ass phone and I'm stuck with it. Really?
I was hoping there was a fix, even if I have to unlock the bootloader and root.
Did you try messing with the sim card? Make sure it is inserted properly. This worked for me when my data was dropping out. Now the phone is on constant LTE.
THis just happened to me. Any length of time on data loss and the phone needs a reboot or airplane mode toggle. This is the worst bug to me. I'm praying an ota for this issue drops real soon. I understand signal drops, there is no way to avoid spotty coverage. But u shouldn't have to reboot or go in to airplane mode to pick up data again.
Sent from my HTC One X using XDA
Airplane mode doesn't even work for me..... I have to hard reboot the phone, do you know how annoying that is? it's gotten to the point where I have to turn off data connection when im not using it, and turn it back on when I need it.
Problem is for work I use GPS a lot, and when it loses service im supposed to reboot my phone while driving and lose my path? Worst bug EVER. I dont have any of these multitasking issues at least.
I wish I could just go get a new phone, but I can't. Thanks apple, assholes. I'm so mad.

Maybe something is up today? My phone lost ALL connection for an hour. A straight hour, I did 3 reboots and toggled airplane mode multiple times. As soon as I got home and connected to wifi it came up again, then went back off. Had to restarted for a 4th or 5th time then it finally restored. It was pretty damn annoying.
Funny u guys mention today specifically. Share what happened mine was between noon n 1pm est.

Maybe it was something with AT&T.. Almost lasted long enough for me to return it >_> But then I remembered that there might be hope for dev's to unlock the BL. I would hate myself if I returned this phone for a 4S and then this was unlocked.
So I had to make a 70 mile round trip to get a new phone, that was the nearest store that had one in stock. I'm going on a few hours now with no interruption, and I'm much, much more happy. It was obviously the phone since this one is perfect. I'd say if you guys are having issues, replace it. Bastard tried to charge me a restocking fee at first though, but I lol'd in his face til he waived it.

Keep us posted. I would hate to have to exchange.

From the minute I got the phone it was having this issue. I literally had to reboot the phone every time I wanted to use data. Today when I exchanged it (about 36 hours later and 40 miles from my home network), it did it right as I gave them the phone for the exchange (which was good cause they couldn't question the issue), so unless they fixed the network within the 10 minutes I took to swap the phone out, which is highly unlikely, it was the phone. Same sim and everything, just a new phone, going on 5 hours now and not a problem.
I think it's safe to say I had a faulty phone, but well see.

Will do, I will report back tomorrow again, if I haven't had an issue by then, I'd say you guys should start thinking about swaps. I'm in love with this phone otherwise.
My downtime was around 12-2ish. Seems fine tonight.

Just an update. Couple days now with my replacement phone and I've not had a single issue. Never loses connection and I don't have a single multitasking issue either. I'm now in love with this phone, hands down the best phone I've owned yet, and my recent list is evo, evo 3d, epic 4g touch, skyrocket and now this badboy. I don't even care if they unlock the boot loader, this phone doesn't need it.
Actually my one gripe is that quite often I don't get facebook chat notifications. I have to check manually in the app. Not terrible. But kind of annoying.
