i think htc has release an update to the amaze !! - HTC Amaze 4G

so today i was helping a girl with her phone and it was on sense 3.0 and it was saying she had an update from htc software update but her battery was to low it said it needed more than 35% battery life so it can be updated , so i didnt really see what update it was , can someone confirm???

No update on mine...but then again I'm in Puerto Rico, so it might come later who knows. I doubt its the ICS update though lol I dont think HTC would troll us by saying we wont get it till later in the yr then just drop the bomb on us

lol i get no update on mines either but mines is rooted so idk

just tried on my brothers is fully stock not rooted i only rooted mine. So no updates. That update was probably to update her baseband.

alright bro thanks

Yea no updates

I got that message...been seeing it on my phone for about a week now...but all i try to update it, it REFUSES to update . It keeps going to the black screen with the little droid and then it stays there til the battery dies....HELP!!!

don' think there is any update yet

nope no update (windmobile)

No update
I am having problem with the device G-Sensor and was talking to TMO. No update coming up. The only one before ICS will be the fix for the sensor issues, said TMO. Or they could come out together.
My 2 months old phone is already broken! Smartphone without sensor is not useful.

Did you calibrate your G-sensor? if not, go to display and calibrate.
use this app to determine whether your G-sensor is working or not.

Mine works just fine. If G-senosr is faulty contact T-mobile.

I tried the sensor calibration but error msg showing calibration aborted. I tried factory reset twice. Finally the sensor started working. TMO is aware of this issue faced by many Amaze owners. They are building a case for HTC to send update.

I just got my Amaze yesterday. There was an update that started last month- brings WiFi calling to the phone. If you have that one, there is no other for TMobile

Getting really sick of my atrix switching back to my N1 until something better comes.

ok i dont even know where to start... I dont usuallypost that many threads *****ing and complaining about my phone.. but enough is enough...
I haven't rooted...(well I did a while ago BUT)... I took part in that beta testing update crap so it unrooted me.. but these problems I have been having are since the LAST "update" which was well over two months ago now (I THINK)...
1st problem I am having is randomly I cannot input text into ANY thing on the phone... I am using smart keyboard pro.. but even when i change input methods it still does not register anything i am typing... in fact when i switch the phone to landscape mode the text box goes dark grey...
2nd also when this happens... nothing will happen when i attempt to make a phone call... i click the name .. nothing happens.. i go into dialer... i cant input the number i try other methods of dialing out nothing happens....
those are the two biggest problems I have as I need to communicate with my clients all day long i cannot have this type of inconsistency.
ohh and also the finger print scanner just plain doesn't work when i go through the process of setting it up.. it wont even register the "test" swipes... its like its broken all together.... any one else having ANY of these problems?? please help me
I've never had any of those problems ever and I've had my atrix since launch date. Maybe you have a deffective device call and see if your provider will do anything about.

to be honest... and i know it sounds pretty stupid.. but... i really dont know how to flash the sbf... i know what it is followed the thread on it when it first came out... but never put the effort into figuring out how to actually do it... and right now i just don't have the time to sit down and do that.... (lazy.. it is what it is) but that could very well fix my problem i guess right... ugghh
ok
good luck sell me ur atrix I need a second one for testing purposes
If you feel adventurous enough, try disassembling the device and reseating the LCD/digitizer cable.
I had an issue with a Samsung galaxy s vibrant about a month ago that would register touch inputs when it was just sitting on the table. I did what I suggested above and the problem was solved.

So you cant input any text and you cant make any phone calls. You know what sbf is youve seen the thread and realize that it could fix the problem but your admitedly too lazy to do it. Okay, thanks for sharing!

LOL! I mean, why don't u just go back to it and making useless comparisons?
If you took some time to read, your problem would already be solved.
1. Your digitalizer may not be working well. Guarantee will cover this.
2. SBF from scratch to discard a software issue.
None of the issues you are experiencing is related to the phone being a dual-core mobile or not.
I've been able to solve some problems by reading and taking the advice from the forums.
If your Atrix looks ****ty, it's not on it. Mine shines!
Waste of forum space!
Warranty!
Bye!
Don't let the door hit you....
Err... you have a broken phone, bro. There are lots of bugs with the Atrix but yours is simply a broken phone.
Hell if you want to complain about a phone, give me it. Ill put the work into fixing it and love it. >.< this phone sucks.

C'mon man, flashing an SBF is simple! The instructions on XDA are very detailed. I am a lifelong Mac user, and even I figured out how to flash an SBF via Windows. It would not take more than a couple hours to download all the stuff you need, and re-flash an SBF. What's your build number now?

Amazing ... bugs?

I bought mine for christmas , I found a dead pixel and rotation stopped working..
I sent it back for replacement, it was such a hassle cuz i dont live in usa.
Finally i got the new one, for 2 weeks now , is stock and I havent download any app just to make sure that was not the issue on the first one..
well yesterday guess what........... rotation and auto zoom stopped working on this one
I dont even know what to think now, I think Amaze is a great phone thats what i bought it .. but im having too many issues with this phone.
I set up MMS in my phone and is only receiving it no matter what , Is there a problem with amaze and MMS messages ?
Well I wonder, if I unlock it and load a rom, will it fix my problems ?
thanks in advance
Wow man I haven't had any of these issues, but my phone was rooted almost instantly, sooo...... Dead pixel is a hardware issue, so a new ROM wouldn't help that, sounds like u just got really unlucky. The other issues may be fixed by a different ROM, but would it be worth it when you have HW issues? Sheesh... Sorry
Sent from my HTC_Amaze_4G using xda premium
Yea, your just very unlucky. as was i, i sent mine back because of my missing notification bar, got the new one and now when i go to install apps from my sd, my install button becomes unresponsive until i reboot it and i have roughly a 45 sec window till it becomes unresponsive again. new roms dont hurt and worth a try. fixed my problem.
Is there a problem with MMS messages, I cant send em, but I can receive it just fine.
You know all started when I took my phone to the phone company, they restarted the phone like 3 or 4 times cause mms was not sending .. On my way home I noticed the issues, I been restarting my phone since then waiting for a miracle ...
Today in the morning , I restarted my phone again with big hopes.. And is working again.. yeyyy
But is weird that auto focus and rotation are linked ..

Wifi calling, voice get delayed the longer the conversation.

This is unbelievable to me. I finally update to ICS and now everytime I use wifi calling for more then 15 mins, the voice gets delayed. The person I talk to on the other end hears what I say 3 to 5 seconds after I say it into the phone. This has been going on for days now and also happens with a friends Amaze at his own place.
What in the world am I suppossed to do now , since its impossible to have a normal conversation with people.
Anyone else have this issue? I am about this sell this phone now. I am not rooted and stock so I cant revert back to GB

I read that app only works for when you pick up the phone and there is a delay. Ill give it a try though. It gets extremely annoying talking to someone and then they start talking thinking I am not talking and my 5 second delay cuts them off.

Yup... Known issue since the first leak... It gets worse as conversation goes on. I just said **** it and installed quick-sense and selected to remove WiFi calling. I can't believe tmo put the option in a device on gb, it didn't work, so they update to ics, and don't fix it? Smh fail

Word.
Anyways, I talked to the tech department about it and the girl knew everything about it.
She set me up with a service ticket and they would check things out, but we both dont think much of it.
Shes going to call me back in 3 days. She said that its not a device issue, that its an OS issue, which I already knew.
She said after the 3 days we will probably do the warranty exchange. She doesnt know if the replacement phones will have will ICS or GB though but if its GB, dont update to ICS because its a known wifi calling bug. That is if they even have the amaze to replace with. I dont mind waiting because I am curious what there going to say.
So you're going to exchange your phone because wifi calling doesn't work properly? A little extreme, no?

I dont get service in my apartment. I rely on it to make all my phone calls when I am home. Without it, its almost useless. Having a conversation where the person on the other end doesnt answer you for a few seconds cuz its delayed is pretty annoying. Not to mention when they start talking again because they think I havent answered, and then it cuts them off, and there is a WTF moment lol
Yeah this is annoying I've had people click on me because they think I'm playing with them or calling to mess with them.. Hopefully tmo fixes the issue soon

Anyone ever factory reset the phone and see if the issue gets fixed at all?
Of course I told them I did it to avoid that nonsense, but now I am considering it. Just dont wanna lose all the work I put into with using facebook pictures for peoples faces when they call. Apps I can always re download
Whats even more annoying is I had the phone for 1 month and havent even begun to pay me 20 dollar a month for 20 months payments! So in the end if they send me another, Im paying for a refurb phone lol. Honestly thinking about when the GS3 comes out, selling my amaze, paying off what I owe with the money I get for it, then restarting a payment plan all over for the GS3. Yeah thats overthinking right there.

Yeah heres my own personal fix. Hang up the phone and call back every ten minutes
So in reality, rooting a phone only affects the manufacturer warranty? Something I will never and have never needed to use.
I have premium handset protection with T-Mobile. If I need to exchange through t-mobile or asurion, all I need to do is unroot it right?
Hmm Now I need to go learn how to do all this to get back to GB.

Returned EVO for issues. Second one is perfect.

My first EVO that I bought on launch day was having some issues. Sense reloading, WiFi not disconnecting after I left my house, 3g sucked, battery life wasn't the greatest, and just seemed laggy. The guys at best buy tried argueing with me and said to reproduce the issues. I was able to show them the 3g connection and my WiFi issue. The guys tried telling me the WiFi was because the phone will automatically connect to all open access points. This is where we started to argue for a minute or two. I told them that was BS, we argued for a few seconds then I cut him off and asked, "Are u going to honor your return policy or what?" I hate it when Best Buy employees try to act that they know everything.
Anyways, the second EVO is running great. WiFi acts normal, way less lag, battery has gone for 2 full days without being charged and moderate use. And sense hasn't reloaded one time yet. Im really glad I traded it out for another instead of just returning. I'm going to give it one more week before I root. I'm missing my apps from my OG EVO.

HTC has a built in feature called SmartSync, which disables data after a period of non-use for deep sleep. If you check the dev threads, there's a fix for it, but it requires some smali editing. Some of the more recent roms have it built in. So the whole WiFi/3G disconnect thing is actually a feature believe it or not...lol
I believe I am lucky. Even though there are the multitasking issued, which everyone has, my EVO has never done the loading sense home screen thing... And I run some memory hoggin apps. Grindr, last.fm, maps, xda, browser, mail. Never had the reload show up yet.

also the sticker i had was black, like some generic sticker placed over the small clear one that was probably broken already.
i may have been sold one that someone returned. mf's
question: do i have to go to the same store i bought it at to exchange it?
I understand your pain dealing with people that are less knowledgeable than you (a Sprint rep tried to tell me that the SD card on my phone could be what was causing the reception issues if the card was 32gigs, no joke). However, try to understand that most of the time these people are just following instructions set forth by their employers. When things usually start to escalate like that, stay polite and ask for a manager. Believe me, it works better.
Anyway, I'm glad you got a non-defective phone and can start to enjoy it

I exchanged my first EVO LTO for frequent reboots at a Sprint Corporate store, 2nd one perfect!
On my third LTE. Should have kept the first one. Hope the new shipment BB gets is better than the ones they had last week.
First LTE: Dust under glass and slight light leakage
Second: Pixel stuck in on position and screen has the flex/ripple issue when under medium pressure
Third: Has flex/ripple issue as well and wifi on this one and 3 G has been worse than the first two
Next shipment comes in Friday. Crossing my fingers for a GOOD one!
My first was light leakage and second was ripple and all I can find around here all have the ripple, hope this goes away in the upcoming batches...

Omg I would switch to another phone after the first one Wtf is wrong with you guys. There are more superior phones oops did I just say that yes I did.
I had to return my first one as well. I was not getting calls txt or voice mails. Data worked find but nothing else.
exchanged it at best buy, and all my messages came through right away.
I suspect that it was not a phone issue but an activation issue.

You mean like the Galaxy S3, the phone that will have zero problems on launch day? Good luck. My first Evo had a bad pixel, and I am waiting on the replacement. I was going to get the SG3 instead, but after reading the UK SG3 threads, there are a lot of issues. I decided that the Evo is best for me. Whether it is superior or not is subjective.
Yeah, as stated above, it will have issues. Hell, go to the S3 forums here at xda and review the complaints of various folks.
In the end, my EVO is imperfect, but as usual with HTC, software updates will fix these annoyances, so I'll be patient.

I'm guessing you didn't have their Touch Pro? I went Samsung after that. That being said I will never buy another Samsung phone, they don't support their phones for ****. I'm with you though I'll take the minor data drops and wait out HTC patches and the much stronger dev support system..

It is amazing to have the chance to compare two different phones. I ended up unfortunately having that experience after I dropped my brand new EVO LTE in the toilet. My first phone I noticed that it didn't auto dock on my car dock even with the option turned on.
Haven't tried the camera on the new phone but old phone seemed like it didn't take sharp pictures like I was expecting but ones that were more out of focus than really blurry.

[Q] LED Notification for missed calls, Whatsapp etc

I just gotten my set and found that the LED notification is not working. Only only workable are charging from red and green to unplug from charger. Anyone facing the same issues ?

Next update should be kitKat 4.4? No programs can resolve this problem?
Ok, glad to know I am not the only having this same issue. Getting no notification blinks. Only get the solid lights for charging and charged.
BTW, mine is a Verizon HTC One Max. Is this affecting all carrier models?
Havent tried yet.. will post later today. I'm using the GSM version.

The international version does not seem to have the problem. Are you guys on Verizon?

ok, so the CDMA variants both sprint and verizon seems to have this bug. i wish HTC is aware of it or someone reports it to HTC. so that you get a fix.
Sprint model is OP3P7
Mine is OK. HTC 809D, Chinese CDMA variant

I am on Verizon and my led works for missed calls/ emails/ and texts. Maybe something you guys have installed broke led functions. ??

I think you guys can dial “*#*#3424#*#*”, then select "LED Test" and run it to test the LED function is OK
I have the same issue, international version unlocked 803s no led for anything except as stated for battery charging and battery charged. Did the led test, lights work fine steady, but does not blink as notifications nor does a 3rd party app work either (I already tried), glad to know I am not the only one was just about to be pissed until I saw this thread.
I dont know if this is a help for anyone, but i thought i would post it here JIC. As I said, I had the same issue with LED notifications not blinking, and found this post. well last night my son decided he was going to mess with my phone cause he was fascinated with the fingerprint scanner, he did it so many times that it asked for a pin, well for whatever reason it wouldnt take the pin I created and was forced to hard reset the phone. Obviously getting to White option screen, I chose Factory Reset and had to go thru the setup process, after I was done I noticed the green light was blinking, turned the phone on and to my amazement the notification led is working, it was letting me know I got an email! I tested it by sending myself a text msg and sure enough its working now!
So I dont know if this is an option for anyone, but I thought i would share, and if it makes any difference, the first time I setup the phone using the htc transfer tool to transfer my stuff from my Samsung Galaxy Note on to the phone, this time I told it to do it from scratch.
Hope it helps anyone.

nice!
Once you take that first system update, I think that's what kills it. I was getting the light per the update.
