I found threads about a similar issue here: [Q] HTC One - White vertical lines on screen display and here: forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2714791.
As there are many different variants available for the HTC One (M7, M8, X, XL, etc.), you need to specify the exact device name and model to find the proper Q&A forum.
Here is the one for the M7: HTC One Help and Troubleshooting.
Here is the one for the M8: HTC One (M8) Help and Troubleshooting.
Just register on xda and post in the corresponding forum to get quick and proper help.
Thread closed. Thank you.

Hello,
First of all, I would like to thank you for the great help your forum provides me in understanding how android system works, how it can be tweaked etc.. I am a former user of an iphone 4 which I have sold for a new Galaxy S4 I9506.
After looking for an answer and unable to find any, I post here today to ask you a question because I have a problem while displaying xda forum on my phone (see attached pictures). Do you have any idea of where the problem comes from, and how to solve it?
Thank you very much.
PS: Sorry if I post in the wrong forum but I'm a new user and not completely aware of all the rules.
You need to download the xda app!! Easier!

I switched to Tapatalk for toys exact reason. However, if you don't want to use an app, just rotate your phone to landscape mode and the text becomes readable.

Hello XDA
I have been using help of XDA for a long time. It is a good source of help and information.
Lately I bought an HTC M8 for my daughter and I found that it requires bootloader unlocking plus some stuff that I find hard compared my Samsung phone.
May I suggest if XDA can create a sheet for all phones especially the new ones where they mention whether bootloader is locked and the difficulty of rooting and installing recovery and new Roms.
Had I known this about the M8, I would have simply bought a Samsung.
Thanks
Hi,
I suggest a lot of research before buying next time... And you'd have known this up front. Especially with new devices now, as many carriers are locking down their phones more and more.... And with it getting more difficult to Root with newer Android releases. Many new Samsung models can't even currently be rooted. Not so for the M8.
As far as a unified list goes.... That would be a major undertaking... No one would do this unless they wanted to. Perhaps you could take on this project and contribute to your fellow members with such a list?
Do some research and you'll find you can do far more with an M8, modification wise, than most newer Samsung devices. ?
Here's the M8 section. The General and Q&A sections have many guides and tutorials, Usually at the top of the section, stickied. ?

Good luck!
As the title says, the phone gets stuck at a screen with HTC in the middle and 4 exclamation marks in each corner. I read on many forums that this might be a hardware problem (radio brick or something like that). This happened after a factory reset. Any ideas? Can this be fixed by flashing an RUU? In other words, is this a software problem?
Hi, thank you for using XDA Assist. The best place to get help on that device is here, http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-desire-hd It's always a good idea to read through the device's specific forum before purchasing a phone. That will allow you to see how it has performed for other users and get a sense for any issues with it. Also, it's a good place to find out if it's rootable and how to return it to stock. These are two things I always look for when considering a new phone.

Hello, and thank you for using XDA Assist!
Sounds like a hardware problem, but a way to tell the difference is to make a screenshot, and save/view the image on your PC. If the lines are no longer present, it would be a hardware issue.
Any other ideas, and what to do next, feel free to create an account (so you can post in other forums) and add a post to the [Ask Any Question][Newbie Friendly] thread (or at least) in the > Android Development and Hacking > Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting forum.
Hope this helps, and good luck!
