Hello everyone, just got my case two days ago. I love it. Except the soft back and menu keys do not work sometimes, however the screen always works, and sometimes the keys will work flawlessly then I don't touch anything and they stop working.
My question:
Is this a defective case or is this somewhat normal?

I never had issues with mine. Turn high touch sensitivity setting in your display setting did you already don't have it on.

That didn't make a difference for the buttons or the screen. Screen functions just fine, but like i said, i could be using the device, and the buttons work. then look away from my phone and press the menu button and boom no worky. lol. Called Seidio and they said somethings not right and are sending a replacement. Yay. I do love this case though except for that. Oh the weirdest part is, the back key will work sometimes but the menu key won't work at all. ha.
Are there any places on that case stucking on home, power buttons ? take it off and check again.

I'm not sure I completely understand, but nothing being pressed. It's very random the way it works and then doesn't. Hopefully this new one fixes it.

Like no joke, while typing that last reply, they were working, after replying I hit the back button and it worked. Then I went to hit the menu button and nothing. Lol. Very strange.

No. Not with the device in the case. I did the water test then dried it completely and no water got inside. I got the new one and it seems to be much better. haven't had any major issues like before.
Another weird issue. Proximity sensor cannot see through the plastic covering.. did I seriously get 2 defective cases in a row?

Sorry if this is in wrong forum. I was just wondering if anyone else uses the dock noticed how your camera shows things upside down. Is this normal? Every rom I have used still shows an upside down view. Thnx

Yea. Mine's upside down also. Never tried it till now. Doubt if there is gonna be a fix for that unless they fix and replace under warranty.
Known issue. Have to turn dock upside down. Kinda sucks. Even though visual is upside down picture video will be right side up.

I have the ibolt car dock. I use it every day. My screen is fine. I'm running Beans 14 now, it worked with jellywiz and stock route 66. Now on that note I have show home screen display checked in dock settings and auto rotate screen checked in display settings. Hope maybe that solves your problem. The only problem I have with it is that if you have a large 4x2 widget on a screen it will cut off the bottom row of icons. I just moved my nav button up a row. The other complaint is I wish the in call sound would play through the car. Everything else works great. Been stupidly driving around watching college football on it on Saturdays, lol. Good luck.

After rereading the thread, I'm not sure about the main camera. The front camera works fine. I video chat with it using Skype and Google+ while driving.

Have both checked. Works fine as long as charge cable not plugged in. Plug in and both cameras flip.
Anyone notice that the charging on the ibolt is pretty bad? Have it plugged in with music and nav, and its actually draining slowly. If a plug in another charger, it charges fine.
Note that audio is being fed through usb.

Heh, sorry guys, I am not familiar with those shortenings.
My RT was on charger ower night and after that I tried to start it. Screen looks like that power is on (and also pressing win button causes this short vibration) but OS is not loaded at all.

I had the same problem when mine arrived but it ended to be the battery totally discharged. One I charged it went on. Be sure that the white light on top of the power connector is one while you are charging.

Did you call MS tech support? They will send you a replacement if anything is wrong with yours.

Have you tried holding down the power button until the capacitive buttons flash 6 times and turns off?
Of course. I've tried everything I can think of

If I press the power button it turns the screen off and back on. I did this a few times and I saw the welcome screen to AOSP.

I can't even boot into recovery, bootloader, etc. No adb either....
How long have you tried holdin power button?

Longest was a min or so. It's weird, the power button turns screen off/on like it should. The vol keys make the sound up and down because it vibrates like it should when it reaches vibrate mode. I got the splash screen up once, but then it just bootlooped so i restarted and it went back to this static screen
Anything that was done previously that may have caused it? Also, have you ever replaced the screen? Anything at all?

Well I just wiped everything prior to this, No reflash, just wanted to wipe it. It was on the AOSP welcome screen, the screen turned off then I turned it on and it was like this. Worst part about it is the fact that adb wasnt turned on because of wiping data.
Never replaced the screen. Never replaced anything
I'm thinking along the same lines as 18th.abn, that its a hardware failure. Either screen is broken, or a wire inside has come loose. Phone (CPU, etc.) seems to be working, just not displaying what its supposed to.

What do you mean "of course"? If you just give us 1 sentence asking for help, and don't tell us what you tried, we can only guess. And obviously "I've tried everything I can think of" doesn't clear up matters at all.
That is unquestionably a hardware failure. You've got a lead loose inside somewhere. Sorry.
All of a suddon my htc one x wont turn on. When I plug it in I get a solid green charging light. When I hold power the home, back and recent apps buttons flash bright white, when I try recovery mode, power and vol down I get the same flashing home buttons. Any ideas, thanks.

press and hold power until the home, back and recent apps buttons flash bright white, I think 7 times? then they stop flashing and the screen goes black, let go of power and press and hold volume down until bootloader comes up.
Awesome
Wow. Thank you. I appreciate it and the fast response.

To be honest, I am not certain. Usually this occurs when the battery dies. I believe it's a bug of sorts.
It does that even when battery is at 60%.

Yeah I've had it when my battery dies, but never other times.
Actually I'm not. I have seen tons of ppl with my same issue

Tons of people? I've only seen you report it happening without the battery actually dying. I've seen other people report it, but only when their battery dies fully. Can you provide some links to other people reporting it happening without the battery dying?

Even ten isn't right. You're the one single person that has reported their phone behaving in this manner. Having to hold the power button down isn't bad for the phone, all it's doing is performing a hard reset.

Either way, its an exaggeration and almost certainly not true. People here often say its the "same problem" when its in fact not the exact same issue, just something similar.
As mentioned, various forms of the power management bug have been reported. But your exact conditions seem fairly unique.
Yes

Ok so I was trying to play a game that requires me touch the screen in two different areas at the same time but when I hit the second touch the first touch kind of de-registers. It's happening on the left side of my display.
I used an app from the play store also. Multi Touch Test.
Any body else noticed any issues?

I used antutu and was able to get it to show all 10 fingers at the same time for me. Try giving your screen a good wipe down and clean.
Yeah I've wiped down already. It does register all touches but as soon as I move my fingers around the touches go all crazy.
I've tried multi touch tester app on play store and mine registers all my fingers from 1 to 10 and no issues including moving around. Sounds like you might have a bad phone.
