Any bugs you want HTC to know about? - HTC Droid DNA

hey guys, so some of you look familiar from the Rezound forums, good to see ya! I finally got a DNA and gave my rezound to my older brother for xmas, and much like last year, i've noticed a couple of bugs. the good thing is, though, that i was in touch with HTC tech support last year, where i actually spoke to them over the phone a few times over some bugs we had with the rezound. after noticing a few, i decided to open my old claim and talk with the same rep who i dealt with last year, as he was very knowledgeable and a great guy overall!
so a few bugs i've noticed so far:
1.) the audio/video delay lag, where in every video player, including youtube, audio lags behind video (thanks milan, i forgot which one it was lol)
2.) the home button lag much like the s3 with s-voice enabled
3.) not much of a bug, but for some stupid reason HTC enabled "auto enhance" on the camera by default! you can't turn it off. this was something big wtih the rezound that the number one thing we urged users who asked how to get good pics was to turn auto enhance off. it really softens the image and makes it look bad in low light, IMO. also, they made auto focus on by default and you can't switch it. i reported this, and he confirmed that it's just part of the software, but they do value our feedback, and i know for a fact this guy does, as the bug with audio recording on the rezound WAS fixed when 4.0 was OTA'd to it.
so i brought both of these up with them, and they're looking into it, which is great. anyone have any bugs they notice? i keep forgetting the little ones when it's time to write a reply to HTC, so it would be good to get them in here.
HTC def. does listen to us, guys.
either way, i LOVE this phone. so snappy, and has an amazing screen and form factor to it! the camera is great, but you just have to play around with the options to get a great pic. the audio sounds great with the beats as well. i've yet to get a wireless charger, but i think i'm going to start looking around for it.
great to be a part of the new community, guys!

When I power on my screen & drag down my notification bar to select a text it sends me to the first text from that person. This does not happen every time, but often enough.

right right! i get that too. my rezound had that. i'll def let them know.

In the messages app, in the all messages tab. The time of the last message is actually the time of the last mms. This is not the case in the sms/mms tab.

i would like the notification light not to go off till i check whatever it is
and also the wifi still seems buggy where it sometimes disconnects in sleep even when its not set to do so

Some games and other apps that use fullscreen have a small black bar on whichever side is on the home bar that takes up space the game could/should be using.

you know, i brought this up. i said, why is it that the One X has the option to make recent apps button into menu by long press etc..what possible reason could verizon have had for getting rid of it? he said he doesn't know, but it was def the carrier's plan to do that, not HTC's. so ridiculous

I've barely used my phone today as you can tell by the screen on time and the app percentages. So... something is wrong.

That looks like you could have a rogue app or something. I've never seen mine above 25. And its at 11 right now.

The worst part is since I'm not rooted, I would have to go through and figure it out by uninstalling them or disabling them one by one. I don't see how I have a rogue app.
I can't even figure out where to start looking. Ughhhh.

Really to be honest at close to 5 hrs screen on time I will get 12 hours total. Is your phone 100% stock or do you have any maybe non kosher pirated apps going on that might not show up in that app. Kernel is still software related and I'm not understanding why yours is so out if wack with everybody else. You have complained about this in several threads now.

dude, you've got something wacky going on. my kernel is never above like 17% and DEF doesn't keep it awake anywhere near that long, even after a 14 hour day...

Left Side Screen Tear Common?

I'm not sure if this is common or if others have seen this on their prime. I wanted to put it out there to find out how common it is, and if they are resolutions for it, besides sending it in to ASUS which I can't do.

Yes, I get it occasionally. About once per month. It doesn't really bother me, and it goes away quickly.
I don't get it on mine (running stock 0.28).
Prior to 0.21 I had a similar problem where some tearing would occur on the left side of the screen when the recent apps list was open and closed, but that issue appeared to get fixed in the 0.21 update.
I've only seen it one time...
After rooting I loaded ATP Tweak and then followed the instructions here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1735887
And that's when the screen issue started happening. Change settings back to where I started and uninstalled ATP Tweak and it went away - and didn't come back.
Sometimes I have to wonder if all the "tweaks" aren't causing people a lot more problems than they solve?

Yes it used to happen with some youtube videos on stock .21 ... it's gone now
I guess it is video driver problem or sth like that ...
It happens for me when using cool reader
I've seen it once or twice with youtube, but it happens a fair amount with cool reader. Maybe it's just more noticeable, since it's a static screen. I don't see it on any games or other text based apps.
It's not bad enough to worry about, and it's always just a really quick flash. It is a bit annoying. It's the only thing I've found annoying about the prime so far - well, and the lack of a ssh client that I like....
I had those tearing issues. I mentioned it on xda already. I tried to understand when it was happening. From what I found it does not happen if I am not using the dock. It only happens when the dock battery is empty/almost empty.
Is it the same for everyone experiencing that issue ?
From what I found in my searches and first hand experience, it seems to happen with a live wallpaper that cares about the battery level (such as the ice cube and water ones from ASUS). I don't recall having the problem without a live wallpaper so far. Started happening only with the .28 update.
Does it happen to anyone without the dock ?
This is a common problem... sort of....
Seems to be much more apparent or widespread with .28 update...
Yes, and it happens sporadically with or without dock...
Also, your status bar & etc might tilt up and down as well...
Btw, this seems to be a problem with Tegra 3 devices in general (yes, even HTC One X... and even the new Nexus 7...)

Only when docked for me. it hasn't happened in a while though since the last update
This happens to me both docked and in regular tablet mode. Rebooting seems to clear it up for a while. I'm hoping this is solved in the next release as mine never did this on any of the older ones
Happens to me as well! I had it on every version... I'm glad that everybody else seems to have that problem!
good to know, thanks guys. I thought maybe it was my multi picture live wallpaper maybe causing it, but that seems ridiculous. Started happening outta nowhere so I was confused as to why!
Everyone has this happen once in a while, strange thing is when people say it went away after firmware update... not sure if they just have not seen it since? It is still there and you just have not seen it again yet.
Anyone who says that they have a prime that it never happened to- does not use their prime enough to catch the issue red-handed.
A reboot usually fixes it, has nothing to do with the dock. REALLY wish someone would fix it!! It looks pretty bad when your iPad lovin buddy picks it up and it is showing graphics glitches and crashing every game you start!!
I hate apple.... just want to smash his stupid iPad on his stupid iFace!!
Happened often when in was watching hd movies using play movies, I had it docked and it was full. Was really annoying. Rarely happened before the update, I also rooted though I haven't done much but add the tweaked build.prop. I'll test it undocked to see if that is an issue.
Edit: undocked not unlocked
I have got it atleast one a day regardless to using any Tweak or stock. It happened from .21 then so more frequently on .28. Especially when playing game any movie. Once it happens I need to restart the Prime to fix it. I think it may be related to ICS, some time it happen on my phone.

Exactly the same as me but I get it like twice a day, I'm a heavy user of my tablet.
The Tour de France app: Tour Tracker (by sbs) causes this tear quite consistently.
Figured I'd post this so the beta testers and Asus can troubleshoot with it.
I have a stock. Prime since Feb and saw this for the first time today. Rebooted and it went away. For now.

HTC EVO LTE 3g hack. let me know if it works for you.

Ok so I did this and it helped streaming a little bit.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1632687
Then I tried something else that doubled my internet speed it may not work on non sense Roms, but you can try it.
Open your dial pad, type in *#*#4636#*#*
Edit:tap on phone information,
then go towards the bottom of the page. Tap on "set preferred network type" then select CDMA/EvDo/GSM/WCDMA/LTE auto, then your 3g should turn off then back on. Next go towards the very bottom of the screen and there is a button that says toggle dns I believe. (Sorry, I'm on my phone so I can't check) hit that so it says 0.0.0.0 allowed. Then all you have to do is tap your home key and it'll save by itself. I have noticed that this won't stay there if you restart your phone, but once you get used to it it's pretty quick to set. I don't reboot every five minutes so it doesn't bother me. It's a small price to pay for fast internet!. My internet speed used to be about 200-300 download, now I see up to 2200Kb download.
IF THIS HELPS YOU OUT PLEASE HIT THE THANKS BUTTON!! THANKS!

Have you tried making call, receiving calls, send text or mms? I believe there was a thread like this when the Evo 1st came out but it turned out that the trick killed some things that made a phone a phone.

It kills some if you pick the wrong one. figured that out right away. Pick specifically the one I listed and you should be fine. I've been running like this for about 2-3 weeks. By the way I'm on ota, dev unlocked, rooted, on viper Rom, and awesome sauce kernel.
Sorry, to answer your question...I do send and receive text and picture mail, send and receive calls (regular number and Google voice number). Now I just have really fast internet.
have you also checked if you're not roaming without knowing?
nonetheless, thanks for posting!
Like I posted in the other thread.....
One test is not definitive.
Do 3-4 with it off, 3-4 with it on, and a couple with it off
Results page from speedtest will report multiple scores.

No roaming, I actually just looked yesterday on Sprint.com and nothing like that. I've been running like this for at least two weeks
This is in response to Rxprt. I have. Every day all day, truthfully, it's fast until I reboot my phone then gets slow again. then I change the setting and it doubles as soon as 3g connects.

That sounds like that menu that you go to to mess up your phone from roaming on the 850 band.
It's all a myth to me. If I can get 2500 on a rural tower but go to another and get poor speeds then nothing I do to my phone is going to change that except for roaming of course or maybe toggling in hopes to get on another carrier if the tower has more than one active and it's the air interface congested not the backhaul.
Sent from my C64 w/Epyx FastLoad cartridge
Though changing this could in theory improve speeds in specific scenarios, its unlikely (and proven when I did a similar test on androidforums.com) that the masses will gain little if anything from these changes.
What we have confirmed is that if you are experiencing slow speeds, the cdma only setting can drastically improve them. The LTE cdma evdo setting is trying to (in some areas) connect to the enhanced cdma technology that is not yet available in most areas, thus the phone ends up on evdo or 1x speeds.
Problem is, the average user has no way of accessing the tower information to even know what areas are complete, in progress, or not effected. Thus results will vary for literally everyone.
And as mentioned, some changes there will result in loss of voice, data, text and or mms

Okay, sorry didn't reply for little bit I had to power wash the parking. :-\ Anyways, the first four were done after the MOD and the bottom four were done before the mod (holding down the power button for 10 seconds and letting the phone restart at factory settings). It definitely works for me, but like it was posted earlier it may not work for everybody.

It doesn't work directly anymore, you have to use Jcase's exploit to make the HTC website think that the DNA is another phone. Then after you unlock the bootloader you can flash a recovery and SuperSU or Superuser.
You just can't obtain S-OFF yet.

This is pretty hard I rooted my Thunderbolt and it was a breeze I don't get how to do this LOL
The exploit is fairly complicated. Myself, I'm holding out hoping that maybe it can become slightly less complicated. Imo, the phone is awesome even on stock and until there's more development I don't see a need for my usage. The battery is pretty awesome btw. I get 4.75 screen on time. Trying to tweak it to make it to 5 hours.
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using xda app-developers app
What are you guys talking about? Its just typing (and in fact, really just copy/paste) in a bunch of commands into a CMD prompt. Easy breezy, takes 10 minutes or so if you know how to follow instructions.
jcase has already said that he has no plans to create a "1-click" method...
IMO, if you are not comfortable following directions, dont know what ADB is, etc, perhaps you should not really be rooting your phone?
And the battery is just fine. I'm having no issues getting through the day with a single charge. The only way I could see the battery become a concern is if someone is streaming Netflix for 2-3 hrs a day. Then you probably wont get through a full day on 1 charge.
I think the main concern is the risk of bricking if instructions are not followed properly. That + other roots have been fairly straightforward so we're spoiled I personally haven't rooted mine yet either, though I do plan on doing so soon.
To the OP: the battery life has surpassed my expectations, and I'm easily lasting an entire day with my DNA. I use my phone all day for texts, web browsing, and phone calls, with around an hour of my commute being underground with no signal. Even with all this, I never need to charge it before bedtime. So yeah, I'd say this phone is definitely worth getting, and you'll be pleasantly surprised by the battery's performance.

Agreed on both points; I've been very happy with the battery and I, too, will eventually make time to root this baby - probably step-by-step with the Youtube video.

DNA to 34%. Barely any use. unplugged at 100% last night

I have no idea what's going on. I'm in San Diego and there back in PA. I'm running out of ideas why the DNA is doing it. I have a modified S3 myself so I got no issues. But I had her download Better Battery Stats and WLD and this is what I got from her.
She does have the new 2.06 update.

Sorry to hear about the battery life. I personally have had amazing battery life. My phone was at 14% when I went to sleep and woke up to 7%. Not sure what the issue is. Connectivity is the only thing that stands out. I doubt she had bad reception. Any apps she's downloaded that could be using her connection more than it needs to? Only other thing could be is the battery. Does she leave it plugged in all night?

Well she was getting great battery life before 2.06 I think. And I know my house, the area is quite strong for a connection. I barely got signal in my room and I got better battery life even with RILJ tripping hardcore. Not sure about the apps. But She plugs it in before she goes to bed, and its by her side all night. So it's not left on the charger all night

Hmm. Could have been a bad update? I hate doing a factory reset but it sounds like it might come to that :/ before that when did the issue start? Maybe we can correlate an app download to the start of the issue?

It could be a bad update, but without me actually on the phone myself kinda hard to pin it down. Before the update she only installed a few apps. She already uninstalled 3 of them which she never used. I just looked the apps via Google Play online account and nothing looks suspicious and those are all the same apps she used on the Inc2 before she got the DNA

My guess the update didn't go as planned. Tell her to move all her files to her pc and do s factory reset. Hopefully that corrects the issue. All else fails. She could let the bootloader redo the update and hope that was the case.

Are you turning off data? Perhaps facebook is keeping your phone constantly awake(looks like it) and that kills your battery. First post a picture of the "other" category in better battery stats and get one power guard and post a screenshot of the "statistics" page.
Download gsam and look at what's taking up a big %. Somethings keeping your phone from going into deep sleep.

Yes I had her turn data off. The only time she is on 4G/3G is on the road. Her work place and home is all WiFi use. She is charging the phone so I'll have to get it for tomorrow.

I'll tell her to get GSAM. I even have DS Battery Saver running on it and whatever is running is bypassing DS
Here is the GSAM. Hasn't been running long but the kernel is doing something

Look at the wakelocks in gsam.
And gmail seems pretty high.

Alright I told her to do that. Gmail is quite odd. I think the damn 2.06 update went bad but i can't be sure
EDIT: Here it is. Well the first one was a joke. My mother is a funny one. I suspected the worse. msm_hsic_host. Any way I can fix it without teaching my mom how to root or do other various mods?
Looks like she has bad reception. Go to settings, about and network to see the signal strength. msm_hsic wakelocks happen when you have a bad signal, ril also causes wakelocks. This is probably the issue(90% sure).

msm_hsic only relating to the S4 pro chipset or all phones? Cause I have very little signal where I sit in my room and I don't get anything msm, just a screw ton of rilj on a Galaxy S3

Try turning off "fastboot", make sure GPS and Bluetooth are "off"
Just some info you can take a screen shot by pressing the power button and the home button. Press power then quickly press the home key. Just thought that would help ya out with your captures.

Alright. I knew about it but wasn't sure if it came stock on the rom. And she already gets confused enough why I'm asking her to do and stuff.

HTC M9 disassembled
Just got mine. Any questions?
Hi all. So I just picked up my AT&T HTC One M9. If anyone has any questions about anything please let me know. Ill be happy to try to help.
It is currently stock S-On and bootloader locked and I am going to keep it that way for now but if there is anything you would like to know just ask.
Ok so a few things I have noticed after using it for about an hour.
1. It does not get hot.....it is actually much cooler than the laptop I am currently using.
2. I love the look and feel of the HTC keyboard but it doesn't change im to I'm.......I hate that!
3. There are a ton of available themes. They all say free, so I assume that in the future some will actually cost money.
4. It is definitely not as slick as the M8.
5. The camera hump on the back is perfectly placed to give a bit of leverage in holding it.
6. The placement of the power button sucks, I always hit the volume thinking it is the power button, even though the power button is textured.
7. LAG......NONE, ZERO, ZILCH. Smoothest phone I have EVER used.
8. There is a personalization option to keep the soft buttons hidden!!!
From where?
I'm confused if its available now online or if its just a pre order. And if it is available now I would rather pick it up in stores so I could have it faster.
Bought it from a guy that got it at the pre launch event in Los Angeles the other day.
What's the Antutu score? Does it get hot when you run the Antutu benchmark?
One for the long run: how does the battery life hold up, and in particular: what SOT are you getting out of it?
It did get a little warmer while running the benchmark. But no where near enough to be uncomfortable.
Not sure if the OP got the unlocked version, but does it support AT&T LTE?
No sorry mine is the AT&T version so no way to test that. I would assume so though.
ohhhh its amazing i will try it.
A reviewer complained about the device getting hot while watching videos. Can you confirm?
Also I thought the software was detecting benchmark apps and putting the chip at 100% when running them. All other times the chip is throttled. Do you think that is the case?
I can't decide on the M9 or the S6 that are branded by ATT as I'm just going to renew my contract for 2 years. I think with the M9 on ATT you will be able to root, unlock the bootloader, etc. An ATT S6 won't be able to do any of that from the past ATT Galaxys. Does that seem about right?

I can't tell if it is detecting benchmarks but the phone is lightning fast all the time. I did run the GPS yesterday for about an hour straight with the screen on and the phone definitely got hot. Not to hot to hold but enough to tell it was hot.
I will say after a couple of days use the battery seems pretty bad. I can't tell screen on time because I can't find it in the settings, but it will not come close to a full day on a single charge with heavy use. Probably close to 6-7 hours of heavy usage in my opinion.

Like I said there is no way to see screen on time, maybe there is some special app tat will do it but it has been removed from the system settings.

everybody usually uses gsam battery monitor on the htc one m8 and it gives you all the details. just screenshot the main page when you download it.
This is pretty light/average usage, also left off the charger overnight.

So the phone sleeps pretty well? What's the drain over night?
