ATT HTC M9 quality control - AT&T HTC One (M9)

Not by any means starting a thread to talk trash about HTC, ATT or the m9 in general.. just sharing my situation with my m9's over the past two weeks sense purchase
A few issues I have seen with atleast two of the four units I have had over the past few weeks from the same ATT store
First I should note I am not anal by any means, not picky and have owned several phones from ATT and HTC including the m7 and m8. Never returned any of my purchased phones for any reason over the past few years, maybe luck but I dunno.
I originally purchased the gunmetal Grey m9 about ten days ago, love it in every sense of the word, huge HTC fan and i could honesty say I found no issues other then a weird buzzing sound when on the phone via normal speaker not speaker phone. Only when the other party was talking and only when on highest volume or the step below highest. Didn't pay to much attention in the first few days of owning the phone but as time went on I noticed it more and it was very distracting.
The second issue I noticed every couple hours was the power button not waking the phone on the first attempt. Not a huge issue and possibly even software related but about 5-10 attempts a day it would fail to wake first try.
Returned first unit for matching gunmetal second unit. Buzzing gone and wake issue gone.
Second unit had taken me till I got home to realize the USB port looked odd. When plugging in the charger I literally had to jam it in and it take a huge amount of force to pull out, almost as if the USB port and body of the phone didn't line up.
Returned it for another matching gunmetal version or unit 3
Unit three had the USB port issue fixed but once again returning home I realized the buzzing during voice calls when the other party spoke, and sure enough the power button wake issue returned.
Today I decided to give it one more try before my 14 day att return period for in store was up.
Swapped out unit 3 with a silver m9 or unit 4
After testing all day I can say this unit so far doesn't have any issues worth noting.
Buzzing in call gone, wake issue gone, display looks a little brighter as well
So it had taken me 4 devices to finally nail down one without any major issues.. again not talking crap about HTC or ATT just throwing out some of the issues I ran into and maybe someone else might as well..

I opted for the gunmetal.

I received mine on Friday. Internal speaker volume seems to be stuck on high. While the sound is terrible, very distorted. Will have my.replacement Monday Or Tuesday.

Gun Metal Grey here.
Only issue I have ever which is nitpicky but still, my contact photos load extremely slow. Constantly seeing grey boxes. Didn't happen on my Nexus 5 or LG G3.

Got the gunmetal one at the att store. I am extremely picky and have had m7 and m8. I tried to find something wrong with my m9 but it is perfect in every way. Used it 3 days to make sure everything was perfect, now unlocked, soff, converted to developer edition. Couldn't be happier, even with the camera.

My fourth unit has been perfect .. I do hope the 5.1 update HTC uses the kernel changes google made with no hotplugging. Made the n6 really smooth which it wasn't kn 5.0.. m9 is very smooth but I see a few stutters and keyboard lag that I'm sure will get fixed on the 5.1 update..

It is a nice phone!

htc EVO 3D display / digitizer failure.

Well, I have had the 3D since launch. After the first couple of days I started seeing phantom touches. After 1 week I started to notice this was getting far worse and that the display/digitizer was registering touches when nothing was near the device.
Called Sprint walked through a full wipe of the OS and reinstall. That was a no go and wasted nearly 2 hours of my time on the phone... However the Level 2 tech agreed that it appeared to be a failure of the device and advised that I return it to the Sprint store.
Got to sprint and showed them the video I had made of what the phone was doing. They also agreed that something was wrong with the phone and replaced it immediately.
Just in case I am not the only one that is having this problem I am uploading the video to youtube... I will share that link with you as soon as it is done uploading.
This is a video showing the issue using the "draw" application:
If you run into similar issues let me know!
I've seen some strange things happen but I figured it was the Otterbox Defender case or humidity here in Florida.
Will watch more closely now. Thanks for the report!
I've also been having strange issues, where touches are appearing out of nowhere. Had to turn off the pattern lock as a result, since I nearly got locked out of my device since it wouldn't register my pattern properly. It seems to 'reset' itself after a couple reboots, but starts acting up again at a later random time. Between the poor GPS performance and this issue, I'm starting to wonder if I upgraded from my Evo 4G a bit too early...
Same thing happens to mine while texting I would click a letter but it would click another one. It just did it once tho
never discount the existence of a true phantom pressing those screens ;p
I have heard of several people with the issue. Kinda makes me nervous. Already swapped 1 due to bad camera.

Same thing happens to my e3d
My touchscreen is having issues lately too. It'll work fine for several hours, then the screen will either be unresponsive or register phantom movements. Sometimes it won't register the lockpattern as I move my fingers, and other times it refuses to swipe left or right between screens. I've been trying to figure out if it's some kind of software or hardware issue, but no luck. I'd hate to return it(since it's my 2nd 3D) but if it continues for the rest of the week, it's going back. I made a video clip of it jumping screens randomly just in case the Sprint store ask any questions.
*update
I installed the paint program like OP did and had similar things happen on mine with the random lines and unresponsive screens. I guess I'll return tonight for 3D #3....
Mine just started doin the same thing lately, any of you have results yet? Did you turn in your phone or did they repair it? I really dont wanna go to the sprint store and turn mine in because i dont want a refurbished unit. 9/10 in the past when ive went through insurance, the phone they send me is broken as well and then it goes round and round. Sometimes my phone will just stop responding to touch, it will have phantom touches and/or on the htc_ime mod keyboard on compact qwerty; the ui, jk, m, . column up and down wont work at all. strange to say the least, never had this happen to any of my phones before.
My launch day EVO 3D is being replaced also due to this issue. She be back up and running with my new phone Wednesday.

Well mine developed this problem a few days ago.
The top inch or so of the screen and when I get this problem the touch sensitive buttons also dont work sometimes.
My problem and my question is that, I dont have insurance on the phone, I bought it on Amazon from a private party after my EVO 4G was stollen.
If I take it to Sprint can they just replace the digitizer, since this is a defect of the phone and would that even fix this problem?
If you don't have insurance on the phone then you need to go on ebay and search for evo 3d lcd digitizer housing. Yesterday, I paid $50 shipped from usa.
If you cant find a good listing then u can buy the lcd + digitizer (or just the digitizer) without housing. But it's hard work to do these two because those things are glued and painful to disassemble. It will definitely look jacked up after all your hard work. Just get it with the housing (front black plastic)
Here is a usa seller with what i'm talking about but he as no feedback so i didnt buy from him.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/HTC-EVO-3D-...ultDomain_0&hash=item1c20adc044#ht_2172wt_286
There is a hi res disassembly video on youtube.
I've been experiencing this issue lately as well. I've had this phone since the month it was released and it only started acting up as of a couple weeks ago. It started off as the touch screen not registering any touches, not even the capacitive buttons. Then this week it started it started doing the crazy phantom touch thing. In order to get it working, I simply shut off the screen then turn it back on again. It seems to happen less if I'm lighter on the screen. Thank gawd I'm not the only one experiencing this.

I called a sprint store and they told me that they would either replace the digitizer or the phone for a fee of 35 dollars, since I did not have insurance.
So, I took my phone in and they had another screen that was from another phone that had a different problem.
After they replaced it, he did not charge me
I was happy until I started to drive home and I was checking it some more and realized that the new screen also had the same digitizer problem.
I guess im headed back to Sprint tomorrow hopefully they give me another phone. and I will happily pay the 35 dollars.
Wow thats a real good deal. I never considered taking it for repair. I thought it must be cheaper to do it myself. I hope they can get you a working one. I'm sure they won't try to charge you for it when you go back.
I'm having trouble with my Evo as well, not sure if its the same issue or not.. for about the past week my notification bar will be intermittently unusable, I can't pull it down at all.. then sometimes it'll work. Unfortunately the times I've been near a sprint store it's working fine.. UGH. Also it's been giving me some random letters occasionally when texting, or the most aggravating is when it "clicks" the backspace button and that sticks and it erases whatever text I just wrote. Sounds like a similar issue.. I just wish mine was consistent, sometimes it works perfect.
Call me an idiot but whats the app that you were using!?
Edit:nvm found it haha
Well today i paid the 35 dollars and will be getting another phone
A really good app for testing screen problems is call "touch test"
http://www.appbrain.com/app/touch-test/org.hermit.touchtest
Mine seem to get worse when i had more then one finger on the screen. and it got really bad with just a little bit of preasure on the screen.
I'm having a similar problem but it is only with the capacitative soft keys.
I have problems from time to time. It gets so annoying on Swype because it will leave breaks while I'm Swyping and instead of one word I'll get like four weird words instead. Very cumbersome.

[Q] To those of you who returned your 3VO for a replacement...

Were you happier with the replacement unit than you were with your original? Were there any additional faults with the replacement unit? Was it worse/better?
I just sent out for a replacement for mine because of under screen dust, dead pixel, the screen tilt, and just to pretty much get a brand spanking new one the day before my 30 days is up. Am just a bit scared I'll get something worse off than what I'm giving up.
There isn't really anything internally wrong with it, besides the dust and the pixel, (the pixel is barely noticeable, but once seen, can't be unseen).
Any input from any of you would be greatly appreciated, and perhaps alleviate and fears I have about it.
My wife had the screen tilt and signal defect.
Her new one we just got yesterday is perfect. No tilt at all.
No dropping every call anymore. No issues with data and WiFi at all.
New one is like my phone. Good to go.
She is now FULLY satisfied.

I too had to get a replacement. I took mine to the Sprint store for random reboots, keyboard errors, dead pixels (5 to be exact). After testing the phone and them saying it is perfect, I began having problems a week later. Took the phone to Sprint, got a replacement and have had no problems. Speed is faster, the phone does not reboot, the pixels are all there, the screen is perfect. There seems to be no problems that I can report. I think that originally the phone had flaws due to trying to push them out so fast. But after realizing the issues, they corrected and seem to have it down.

I don't know if this will solve your problem, but i read somewhere if you add the watch widget to your homescreen and watch it that way it should work fine.
My first had a lot of problems reboots,fc with basic apps, sometimes would not turn on without a battery pull. My second one works great so smooth but I wish the speaker was louder.
Exchanged for screen tilt: new one is perfect in every way.
BTW, between myself and friends, I have access to 6 3vo's and I've tested them all with the dead pixel test on the market. Not a single dead pixel on any of the six, two of which were launch day units.

My first one was leaking light at the bottom buttons... and the main defect was the Mobile Network and Wifi would shut off randomly... When turning them back on... they would just sit there saying "Turning on..."
Got the new one... Light doesn't leak and somehow Mobile Network shut off. I'm beginning to wonder if it's me messing with the phone... I am happier with the replacement... and most will still be in the first 30 days... so you can get a brand new one.
Gonna get mine swapped tommoro due to if you shake it slightly it rattles and typing rattle is louder slow net speeds sucks. LOL love the phone.
Damn how I'm not having any of those issues with my phone?; may be I'm blessed lol

I do have heavy light leakage on the bottom of my phone. It looks like the screen didn't set correctly.
It's never bothered me. Can't help but love this phone.

My first one had random reboots and wouldn't sleep... along with a crooked screen, so I exchanged it. The second one still had the crooked screen, but it didn't have random reboots and would sleep properly. However, the speaker was busted. It was extremely low on volume and it would pop every time any audio was played. The third one (that I still currently have) sleeps properly, doesn't randomly reboot, and has a good speaker. It still has the crooked screen though, but it is much less crooked than the first two. I'm tempted to try one more exchange just to get one that has a perfectly straight screen, but I'm scared of getting one that's the same or worse.
Your lucky you got ur unit swapped I'm stuck with mine the lady was a ***** at the store management wouldn't swap mine due to rattle or net hang reportibg the ***** lady that gave me looks when I took my phone in to there main store.

I think the rattle is the 3D 2D camera switch because mine does that as well but after a quick shake and listen I held the switch and viola no more rattle.

Power Button Issues

So a couple of days ago I noticed my power button on top was not responding very well, hmmm. Thought maybe it was because of my case or some debris got lodged in there. Took case completely off and cycled power button several times but made no difference. It does still work, as in power the phone on and off but you have to push on harder than what it use to be.
Looked online at youtube and related posts, was gonna look at fixing the phone myself. Holy crap, to take this phone apart is a pretty good ordeal and more than likely you will need a new outer case after all is said and done. Went down to local ATT store today and talked to them, and at first lady was like what's the problem, I can power it on and off. I said, well I can too but you have to mash on it a bit to do it, and once I put my case back on it's really gonna get more difficult. Get a new one and compare it, so she did and said she could hardly tell the difference, well I can, the new one has a positive click for each push of the button, which mine did too up til two days ago.
After reading online, I see this is a fairly common issue with the HTC ONE, which ticks me off since it's only 6 months old. Hell my HTC INC, was 4 years old and never had a problem besides just getting slow. Anyway, she brought a new one, or maybe it was newly reconditioned, I don't know, and then loaded it up and said here you go. I asked her if it was a 64gb model like mine, she wasn't sure, so I looked and it wasn't unfortunately. So she put in the warranty order for another one coming to my house. Bums me out bigtime, since I had this one all soff, unlocked, rooted and the whole shot plus as far as I know there was no pixels dead or lifting of the screen or gaps between speakers, and the whole plethora of problems that plague this model of phone, so who knows what my newly refurbished model will bring.
I'm contemplating whether I should even bother relocking bootloader before I mail the phone back in. Any body else run into power button issues?

Reoccurring daughter board failure

So my phone is a Verizon HTC one max running 4.4.2 s-off adrenaline Rom, rooted, all that good stuff.
I keep having a daughter/secondary motherboard failure that gives off problems.
The following doesn't work;
Flash on rear camera
Bluetooth won't connect
Home and back buttons on lcd do not light up
Now at first glance this could be rather confusing but I had a parts phone months ago and I changed the secondary motherboard because the headphone jack wore out and it's built in on this model. All the problems listed above resolved themselves. I was thrilled
Fast forward six months later and I'm back in the same boat. so it's either order another parts phone at around $50 or get a new board from Shenzhen for $25
It's not really a big issue to me as I love this phone and plan to keep it for many years to come it just seems odd it would happen again so quickly. I'm curious if anyone has seen this issue before as I would think it must be common and I just luckily found the fix. I am running viper4fx and it's juiced up all the way (I love my music) but I have yet to have any audio issues so I doubt that would be the culprit.
I tried wiping and reinstalling os and such so I highly doubt it's software.

Google Stepped up for me (battery shut off issue)

Had a launch Nexus 6p that I bought from the google store, I never purchase extended warranties and have never needed one since every device I've ever owned since my Treo 650 has lasted well beyond its useful life but was still perfectly functional. Hell, I still have a S3 rocking for my kid and it works fine all these years later.
A few months ago I started having the 15% shut off error. Noticed it, wasn't a huge deal because I rarely use the device that low. Few days ago it started getting progressively worse and now the device will turn off between 30-50% depending on the day. Obviously this isn't ideal.
Never had a device do that, ever. Was pretty disappointed actually as this is an obvious hardware issue and was contemplating skipping on Nexus / Pixel devices in the future, heck was even thinking of having an affair with an IPhone for a bit. It had been a long time (since the 3g) and sometimes change is good. The 6p and 5x have had a number of issues, enough that there are class action suits floating around.
Anyway, I wasn't going to call Google. I mean this device was well past warranty, no extended was purchased so why bother calling right? Well I got a wild hair and decided to do just that. Setup a return call and a minute later had someone calling me back.
Explained the issue, told him I wasn't sure if there was anything they could recommend or do but wanted to check. 5 minutes later he is sending me the email for RMA and new device.
Now technically Google didn't have to anything. I know that, I'm appreciative of their efforts to keep me happy. I never asked for nor demanded a replacement, it was offered and for that I am very grateful. I'm not sure if the class action lawsuits over 5x and 6p issues are causing them to be extra cautious, I don't know if this is really par for the course with them. I've never had issues in the past and hope I never do in the future.
Obviously it is preferable for the user to not have to deal with this crap but how a company responds to these issues is important. Easy to sing praise at a company for developing the perfect device that lasts you 4 years when most probably dump it in 2. Harder when the POS you bought is starting to die 14 months in and on hospice at 16 months and the issues are severe enough that class action is talked about. Either way, Google deserves some credit for stepping up to the plate when they didn't have to. I'm a happy user.
I can't say this will occur for everyone with the same issue. What I will say is that if you're out of warranty, don't let that keep you from calling and talking about the issue.
Thank you Google and the Google support staff. Service like that will keep me in Pixels and whatever from the google store forever.
I may try this soon because mine is doing the same thing...
I had the same issue on my XL.... shutting off with no warning after 2-4 hours at about 40-50%, yet I could boot into recovery and stay there until at least 20%. So had accelerated battery loss and an early shutoff.
Bought it open-box off Swappa, so had no Google receipt, but on a whim, opened a support issue (text) from my 6P, which worked fine. I was offered an exchange no-problem. I chose to send in my phone first and had the replacement in less than a week.
FWIW, I think my issue started when I flashed May update and charged it after using a QC 2.0 charger. I usually use a Qi charger and charge it overnight.
I had exactly the same, well outside the standard 1 year warranty. Used the online agent chat to explain the early shut off problem. They instantly suggested an RMA, I didn't have to beg or ask for a replacement. I Ended up getting a brand new phone in its retail box. I saw someone else in another thread say Google offered a full money refund as they didn't have a like for like replacement available. Well done Google!
I got a refurb.
That's awesome to hear. I think they're taking the bad press very seriously.
that was nice of them !
happy for you , btw. i quite often read about this issue from users.
but how exactly does it power off??
does it shut down by its own? like a complete shutdown?

Yup, just shuts down. If you try and reboot it is as if you are at 1%. Before shutting down it will show 15% or 30% left on the battery and then boom shutting down.

Me too. I have another 5 months with Nexus Protect.
Refurb came in today and what a total POS. Shuts off randomly from 30 seconds to 20 minutes. You can see the battery % getting all crazy from 93% to 73% to 83% then boom off. Going to call google tomorrow to let them know. Stupid thing died half a dozen times between setup and the apps finishing to download. They must have absolutely zero quality control over at their refurb center.
This will be my last Huwei device and my wife won't buy another LG product either. They really screwed the pooch on that device gen.
Giving me a full refund. Just have to send in both devices.
Mod please feel free to merge the two threads I looked on the first page and saw nothing when I posted.
How long did it take after doing the email stuff for people to get the replacement? People that got refurbished ones how did they look? My replacement is about to be ordered. google customer service is pretty awesome.

I love Google. They just took my word that I'd tried everything and couldn't sort it and sent a refurbished phone. It works perfectly and I love it! Now and then when you call you get the odd person who is hard to talk to but that is usually someone in an Indian call centre that doesn't really understand my problem. It took under a week for me. It can take up to two weeks but you should really get it within 5 working days.
I have the same horrible battery issue and am speaking to Google now. Do you think I should mention that I also have a cracked screen (but this is not why I am trying to get a replacement at all)? Or do you think I should say nothing and they wont have an issue still replacing it when I send it in?
EDIT: Nevermind, I mentioned it to the support person and assured him that it was not the reason for wanting a replacement and he said they cannot make the same exception anymore, but if I wanted, they could send me an advance refurb but then they'd bill me for the screen which would not be covered. He is having trouble telling me the screen cost though first...
Not sure if it's worth that for just a refurb at this point. POS phone. I told him I'll hold off for now.
I didn't opt for the "advanced" replacement (where they ship a phone first and charge my CC), yet they appeared to have shipped my refurb shortly after I shipped mine. I got my refurb about 3 business days after shipping mine and confirmation about 5 days after I had my phone that they had received my defective one. My refurb looked great (as did my defective phone)
Talked to support on chat and they took care of me (even though i didn't have a warranty and my phone is 2 years old) as a one time courtesy. Google customer service is pretty awesome! phone will be here within a few days. ?
google took care of me as well. my replacement will be in tomorrow. I have had my 6p since launch. only swapped out because of the obvious battery issue.
I'm facing the battery issue too, but the problem is that I live in Brazil and the 6P wasn't officially released here. I bought mine during a trip to US last year. I was thinking about buy a battery and try to replace it by myself but I'm afraid of shatter the camera glass during the disassemble.
So here is my question: how long is taking in average to get the refurb (in advance)? I'll be in Round Rock (near Austin) for a whole week next month but I'm not sure if it's enough time to do this exchange.
