I just got tha same problem today and i saw your topic just before posting a new one.
I got the problem using the MROM-ICS (of course i dont blame the developer or the rom for that). Basically i had a lot of problems with the rom and my old (gingerbread) data and apps so i has flashing the rom/gapps and restore all the time witch turned me mad... then i just pressed the screen a little harder (really little) when pluging in the charger. I saw he screen doing this weird color when you press it (like the pc monitor does) so i think that this is my fault.
So if i understood right you had the problem before and after digitizer change ? Sorry but i am not sure of what i read here
PS: I tried pds fix but with no luck.

The digitizer is not good /doa. You'll probably need another new one. Happened to me times.

Mine had the same problem same place but it's spread to the centre as well now
I think it's with the stupid flex cables and something to do with the faulty design of fingerprint scanner position
No one has permanent solution for this but for temporary purpose you can insert a piece of credit card inbetween the battery top location and check

Search Button Half Lit On Boot Up

Discaimer: I'm apologizing in advance of this seems like a stupid question or post.
I noticed that my search button partly illuminates when I first turn on my phone if it's completely off. Once the phone is fully booted and my home screen comes on all of the other buttons light up properly as well as the search button.
It just seems a little odd, but isn't causing any problems. Anyone else have this? I'm just hoping it's not a sign of potential hardware problems. (Yes I have insurance but enjoy full root with hboot 1.4)

Mine too. I was always kinda curious about whether it was common or not, but it never really bothered me too much
Yes, its normal. They should have got that fixed before finalizing this model.
Via My HTC Evo 3D On The Now Network From Sprint.
Mine is the same way as well. It's a light leakage. If I use one of the kernels with dim LEDs, my buttons look like ass because of this. Most people can lower their value to 2 (in ..../button-backlight/currents), while I can only lower mine to 14 before it starts looking dumb.
Mine is most prominent when in recovery. Only time I notice it.

Cool, thanks for all the replies. Happy to know it's common.
By the way it's nice to see some fellow Evo/Hero guys in here. I recognize Leukay and Tailsthecat from one of those 2 forums. Don't know you guys personally but nice to see you in here. Actually I think I recognize Rydah803 and Ducky1131 too so good to see you all here.

I've noticed this too. It does make the phone look like crap when the LEDs are off.
It's light "bleed" from the screen to the search button. it most visible in recovery, probably because your screen is completely white and it's easy to see the white light bleed.
Kinda sad that HTC didn't fix this issue before releasing the phone.. Cheap internal build quality, perhaps?
I think it may be due to the fact that they used some sort of clear plastic to put together the inside. If you open the batterycover you can see what I'm talking about.

I got it too and my phone is a recently assembled device on one of the latest h boot builds. Doubt this will be fixed so i guess we live with it...
Same with me I thought only i have that issue.
Seems like HTC did a bad job in this area. I also have hardware build 0002 so I guess it's an issue with that build.

Any Problems With The Desire X?

Hey guys I'm about to root my Desire X thus voiding my warranty I just wanna know if there are any problems with the phone's hardware? =)
thanks!
Nope, not at all.
Sent from my HTC Desire X using xda premium
After 4 Weeks the Problems started...
...first of all, iam coming from the HTC Desire handset. A solid, powerfull, less memory brave smartphone at least for 2 years.
Switched to Desire X because of the lack of memory on my Desire, although root and sd-ext.
I was very impressed of this low budget device, it did a precious impression onto me, but now i know why HTC is losing marketshare and the earnings decreases.
The device itself, even without the backside attached creaks on the upper left and right corner - ok i would life with that, but there are constant reboots and state an error report, while my device is on standby and stored in my pocket - maybe there is too much pressure applied while i tie up my shoes, but my old desire took it without any problems.
The main problem is the screen, i got an array of faulty pixels - so iam heading to my retailer to get this device repaired and then sold.
Nexus 4 iam coming, although i loved the handy size....
Attached pictures of the upper left corner taken with a One S through a magnifying glass...
no problem
I also have a Desire S, now my wife is using it.
Until now I don't have any problem, it's smoother and I think it eats less battery than Desire S (both stock ROM).
Waiting for full Sense that i miss from Desire S :crying:
Unfortunately I recognized one problem.
After every shutdown and restart of the phone I miss some apps on the screen or in my favourite folder.
Like most of my other apps I transferred them with Titanium Backup from my old phone (Desire).
I cannot see, why these few apps (Financial Times App, Paradise Island, Blast Monkeys, Bad Piggies) behave like this and the others not. Maybe it is associated with root, maybe not...
Yep, have the same problem, it's because those apps are installed on the SD-card, and the phone doesn't link them to the screen when booting.

Why should another launcher solve the problem?
The apps will stay on the SD-card, why should the behaviour change?
The only problem is the small number of developers writing ROMs. :silly:

Because they use other methods for the shortcuts. Just try it and give us feedback. I don't have the problem on my desire x so it's up to you.
i have this phone for a 2 weeks now, and still not have any problems, except one random reboot..i dont know why, hope that will not repeat
No problems so far. Works like a charm.
Im comming from Desire (bravo), and Desire Hd.
I can say Dx is awsome budget phone, never had any prob. Running smooth.

The only problem is horrible hiss noise on headphones and speaker. But that is unrepairable.

Non-responding touchscreen

Hi,
The past few months I have an very irritating issue:
I unlock phone but can't type anything for my pin or at least a part of it. When I lock and unlock my device it often works again. This also happens while typing in WA and using the browser. It happens about everywhere. I use a screenprotector and this issue is not due to the because I had this on 3 totally different roms. Anyone has any idea?

I had this issue, and couldn't seem to find a solution besides a new digitizer. It only got progressively worse, to the point where I switched to an older phone. Flashing to stock didn't do a thing either. I guess it's pretty common for the digitizer to fail on these phones.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
Yeah I thought about the same. Did you eventually fixed it by replacing the digitizer?

Unresponsive capacive keys

Has anyone else been experiencing weak or unresponsive home and back keys. My home key does not always work. Just trying to see if mine is faulty or others experience this issue.

I have the same issue and it has been pissing me off. I have read the OTA has fixed this issue for some. I am still waiting for my OTA to come through.
Screen off/screen on seems to kick it back into gear most of the time for me.
I had the same problem. Unlocked bootloader and put TrickDroid on, and this problem is gone. Not that it should be the solution, but it seems the move to the international update fixed that problem.
I also had the problem on stock AT&T ROM. Flashed ARHD and the problem is gone

I had the problem after i installed a screen protector. I cut around the buttons and now the problem it's gone.

I flashed international Rom and it's alot better I have two ones that I use and there's s big difference between stock att and international imo
Sent from my HTC One using xda premium
Stock ATT rom here and there are times I have to hit the home button a few times. Gonna unlock bootloader tonight and see about installing a rom.
Mine definitely require very accurate taps. I am getting used to it, but I am hoping a software update will improve the responsiveness.
Sent from my HTC One using Tapatalk 2
Seems to be the case more with our (ATT) software. Flashing the international or one of the international ROMs seems to make it much more responsive. Hopefully our phones will get the update soon!
I loaded an international Rom and I still occasionally get buttons that don't work and I have to lock and unlock the screen.

Some say it's the screen protectors some say it's not. I did notice before I out one on it wasn't so bad. But once I out it in was constantly smashing the buttons and where the are so flipping close to the screen I would open unwanted apps. Anyway I too a straight edge and an exacto knife and cut the protector off right where the screen ends and the black capacitive area begins. Did it last night and haven't had to press anything more than once. Just a thought from a guy

Compared to my One X, neither of the buttons are precise at all, even without a screen protector on the AT&T Rom.

I agree. A screen protector shouldn't make a difference. Never did with ny One X either.

Even when I didn't have the screen protector installed it was also very finicky. It seems like you have to press down exactly on the buttons for them to register the action. Even then, one of the buttons will sometimes wig out on me while the other one will continue working. It seems like the problem resolves itself within fifteen seconds most of the time, but its annoying nonetheless.
What's funny is that I thought it was a software problem at first, but even after switching over to the newest CM nightlies it still happens every now and then.
Yea but basing that in cm10 is irrelevant
Because so much is patched and ported but agreed this thing sucks sometimes

Big problem with my One X+!! :(

Hi people,
i write here because i have a big problem with my Htc One X+, Internetional version....
Two weeks ago, i broke the screen of my phone.. Had the last official firmware, whitout unlock and root..
I bought from etrade site, a screen, the Sharp model for HTC One X+...
Yesterday arrive the shipment, but when i assembly all the phone, the touchscreen doesn't work... I write immediatly to the Support, but after 2 hour, the screen start to work! But it continue to have lock and crash, and i had to lock the phone and relock to can use it..
Yesterday evening, the phone was K.O. Don't want to work...
I can see everithing, but the touchscreen doesn't work.. I try to do a factory reset, but nothing change.. Now i unlock the bootloader, and i put a recovery, but without touchscreen i can't use the recovery!!
What's the problem for you? Can be the screen the problem?
Thank you to all, and sorry for my English..
U should start with checking the digitizer conection. Screen and digitizer have different conections usually so one can work the other can't . Open the phone up and check the plugs are they in the right position are they fully pluged in .
