Thinking of returning mine. So many times I have emergency calls only until I unlock the screen and it then kicks in or it drops my call signal when WIFI comes on. Also noticed a yellow patch on the screen which is visible when using the keyboard in landscape.
What's the process for getting a replacement from P4U? Will a new unit have the same problems?

Anyone use the official Twitter app and get weird graphical glitches when composing a new tweet sometimes?
I'm not convinced it's the phone because I've seen reports of it happening on Samsung hardware, but not many.

Yes, get it in Twitter and also get it on the HUKD app - I think it could be something to do with apps that are designed for Android 2.x but I'm not sure.

I only seem to get it when I activate the keyboard. It's the animation that causes it.

my gmail account gets 50+ emails each day mate so it syncs all the time during the day as i have forum notifications across 5-6 different forums with instant notifications on each thread that gets a new post and believe u me i am subscribed on every thread i post in, including all in ocuk.
i doubt u can top that and i doubt u get more then 10 emails per gmail account u have!
Soldato
Ha, ok mate. You're the only one that gets emails.
Soldato
are u disfunctional or something lol i said i get thousands of emails a day. more then a typical gmail user!
Soldato
Yeah, cause of the website I get a very, very high amount of email on a daily basis. If I leave sync on it hammers my battery, so I turn it off and just manually refresh it whenever I please.
Soldato
i will do a test and disable sync on my gmail accounts for a whole day and see what happens
My biggest battery drain is signal. On good signal I can get 3-4 hours screen time with around 12-14 hours. On a working day I can manage around 15 hours but screen time of only around 1-1.5 hours due to signal at work being poor it hammers my battery!
I've tried various things, location off, location on, disabling auto sync, keeping it on. Not that much of a difference to be honest. Even leaving it on Edge at work it still drains!
At home it's fine but when out and about that's when it impacts it. As we can't flash different radios I'm going to have to go by until S-OFF is released to flash radios.

Thousands, all to your inbox. A day. I must have misread where I thought it said 50 a day per inbox. If you're really, honestly handling thousands a day then you've got bigger fish to fry than battery life.
Where did you say you get thousands then?
Soldato
how much do u get?
i get around 100+ maybe on each gmail account plus my work email as well.
one popular thread like say a football thread i can easily get 20-30 emails on just that single thread. imagine all the threads i am subscribed to here in this forum alone mate and u will realize that i sync **** far more then u mate who probably gets maybe 10 new emails a day lol. i get 10 new emails an hour if not more LMAO.
So I suspect my One X is a little poorly: It frequently refuses to wake from sleep, displays corrupt visuals, sometimes appears to run at the wrong resolution and often just draws blocks of random noise to the screen. This doesn't happen 100% of the time and it'll occasionally just work fine; It's acting like a PC with a dying GPU or dodgy VRAM.
It's a little over a week old on a Three contract, anyone had recent experiences of their customer service? I don't relish trying to get them to understand what looks like an intermittent hardware fault.
See this video from around 30s onwards if you're interested

you simply have too much time on your hands if you get time to read all those emails each and every day
you get more than most companies
and they have staff to filter them..thousands

id take it back and demand an exchange for a new one preferable ht25 or ht26 batch you can tell the batch code if you look at the paper surround on the box its the first part of the serial...wouldnt touch a ht23 or ht24 (too many issues due to first batch)
tell them its doa with intermittant screen curruption...your withing your rights as its 7 working days not including weekends starting from the day after you actually have it in you hands if you find a fault they have to exchange it or refund you its the law..after that its 28 days for exchange then after that its back to HTC
dont let them tell you diferent check it out at the citizen advice burea.
(for uk all that is)
