***The Official HTC One Thread***

Just found out that you can use the sense widgets on any 3rd party launcher, nice one HTC :cool: Took your time though :p


Hopefully this will further reduce the "zOMG, there is less than a mm gap on my device" comments :p

Myth/Question #4: My device was advertised as a “Zero Gap Construction” phone. When I look at the speaker grills I can see slight raising between the speaker grill an screen. Is this a warranty issue or something I should send in for repair?

A: Your device is likely within specification. The front speaker grills are cosmetic and not part of the “zero gap construction.” A hairline space between speaker grill and frame will have no impact on performance.

Our “Zero gap construction” references to our refined design to create a seamless body of the device which does not include the speaker grills.

Myth/Question #1: The HTC Logo is a capacitive key that can be programmed as an extra input option.

A: There is an XDA video showing a user who mapped this HTC logo to respond to button presses. Even with that video- this is false. There is no capacitive sensor located in that area. The XDA user programmed the final row of pixels (or a couple rows) located in the middle of the phone to be accessed as a keypress. There is no hardware supporting capacitive touch in this location (one of the engineers showed me the opened up device personally).

HTC One, two months on ...
 
I'm still not having much luck with my emails. I don't seem to receive them automatically, I have to manually check the 'Mail' app and it refreshes and suddenly the emails pop up. Anyone else finding this or is push working ok?

settings - accounts - google acc - tick sync mail?!
 
Having finally received the phone from Chitter Chatter last friday I was irritated to see they had not included a micro sim - my old phone uses a normal sim and I'm not too keen to get out the scissors.

5 days later and I still have not received it despite assurances that I would get it by yesterday.

Not impressed and their customer service line never gets picked up.

Can I get one directly from TMobile?

At the moment the phone is just a nice shiny 500 quid paperweight!

Sorry should have made it clearer, my gmail account is synced fine, emails come through fine on that. I set up my hotmail account with the 'Mail' app, nothing seems to come through on that unless I open the app.

checked if there's a shop near you with a sim cutter?

I need to keep my existing sim as I am keeping my number and transferring it to the new sim - don't want to risk something going wrong and then having no mobile number to use.

That doesn't make any sense! What I meant to say is that if the phone has any problems with it and I need to return it then I won't be able to use my existing phone if I cut the sim up (unless I glue it back together again!).

So not chancing it.

Nothing to chance mate, use a sim cutter. Any local phone shops should have one. If you need to put it back in your old phone, use an adapter. They cost a quid max or just use a SIM which has a micro sim cut out and pop it in that. Any giffgaff sims lying around? They come with the cutout.

I got mine on Saturday, it isnt perfect but i am willing to bet almost none of them are completely perfect ( as in everypanel,part lined up perfectly with absolutely zero gaps anywhere around the whole phone).

The only thing with mine is if you look at the bottom of the phone upwards (i.e. look at the usb input) there is more of a gap on the right side between the speaker grill and the plastic/resin middle than there is on the left. To be honest i dont care as you only see it when you are looking up at the phone from below (i.e. not when face on at the screen). Plus the screen is perfect, no dead pixelz, perfectly uniform and no tints....so im keeping it as that is most important to me after my S4 screen fiasco.

To be honest, the only thing casuing the "issues" is the choice of that resin material for the middle as i bet no two ones of those have been cast the same ;)
 
Thanks gents

I never noticed but mine has a wonky screen, as in it goes to the left on the top left and right, I have been speaking to HTC via email and they might swap the handset out tomorrow if they get some spares in apparently

We shall see
