"T" wont register when using 1500 OEM HTC Battery

So i bought a few of these batteries off of ebay and they are OEM HTC 1500maH batteries that come with the EVO. However when i put it in i cant press the letter T. i knwo this is happeneing due to pressure on the screen (its a little bigger than the 1300) but its weird cuz when i put the batteries in my moms incredible the problem doesnt happen. can someone please help me find a fix for this issue. its realllly annoying. and also i know it has nothing to do with the software cuz ive tried flashing multiple roms.

not sure if it has anything to do with it, but do you and your mom both have the same types of screens, or maybe one of you has SLCD, etc.?

I have an HTC Evo 1500 in my inc and T works for me. I'm AMOLED. Let us know what you've got.

I have an 1800 battery off of ebay and its a good bit bigger then the stock battery and everything still works

We all have AMOLED so i cant figure out why there should be a problem with just "my" phone

that's no fun man :/ just curious, what happens if you hold the phone horizontal?

Works perfectly fine. But I don't use landscape very much...

No problems with the Seidio 1750mah battery.

ok ive been using the stock battery due to the whole T not registering and i just got a siedio innocase 2 and popped it on my DI and the problem started happening with the 1300+ innocase! but now its even worse, the T, G and V wont register with the case on.. So im thinking about taking my phone into verizon and getting a replacement, but im not sure if they would give me a new phone because they might give me some its a 3rd party product bs and their not responsible for it... anyone have any suggestions on how i could get a replacement? lol

Well you said you noticed it when using an OEM battery... So obviously it's a problem with the phone.
Make sure you show them what happens when you try it on both you and your mom's Incredibles.

yeah im going to take them both in and show them. i should probably restore my stock backup and turn security back on before i take it in yeah?

That would probably be smart, yes.

so i brought it in showed them the problem and knowing how verizon reps are (they think wiping the data fixes everything) they just wiped the data, problem was still there and a new phone should be here tuesday. just crossing my fingers the same thing doesnt happen to the new phone.

I have a question, did they let you keep your current defective phone while they sent a new one?

yeah they did

[Q] [Solved] Broken power/unlock button?

Hello everyone
I've had my incredible s for about 9 months now
All of a sudden, my power/unlock button has lost its clickiness.
I have to really press it hard, and it just mushes in, without any feedback.
Its lost its responsiveness too
My question is, has anyone got this problem as well? I didn't drop it or anything.
do I need to take it back to be repaired?
Thanks in advance!

Mine used to click, now it just mushes.
So yours has always mushed, even with the back cover off?
I'm thinking about taking it back to my carrier store and see what they can do about it.

Did you ever find out about it. I'm thinking of contacting HTC about it and see if they will fix it. Its really annoying I can only turn my phone on when I hold it in my right hand as no other way works.

I noticed this happen within a couple of months of usage with my IncS. Didn't bother me much so I did not fuss about it.

Send it to HTC, they will fix for you. My friend has done this.
Cheers...

Im a bit worried that they will look at it, it still works just not as well, and think I am being too fussy. I think it is getting better though, any worse and I will take it back.
Virtuous Affinity now has volume unlock so I use that now
Thanks for the responses guys

Yeah I might just wait a bit longer and then send it in to be fixed if it gets any worse.

Mine is a bit tricky too, this the only thing that keeps me away from unlocking and flashing ics...

You can always s-on again if it starts to get worse
I will wait until I dont need my phone everyday and then will send it to be fixed. They don't give you a replacement do they?
This issue must be a design flaw as we all have the same problem.

You are using affinity, use the built in virtuous tweak to unlock with volume rocker. That might keep your power button working longer.

I recently bought a phone (3 months ago..), a IncS..., I didnt know these problem with the power botton, what a problem...
Me power botton works fine in these time, but now I will began to get some monney for change all the phone

i just sent my phone back to HTC so they can repair it. I will report back on here when they give me my phone back to see if it has been fixed.

Yes it was stock htc sense rom. I don't think they will know it was s-off and hopefully they don't update it to the latest hboot

I should pass though htcdev to unlock, tacoroot seems to not working ...
BTW removing the sd I noticed that without the back panel the power button have a more "natural" feeling and responsiveness, it seems like that is limited by the back cover..

I found that too, but now it's lost all its click and just mushes
@incrediblealex have you got it back yet? And, did you send it to your carrier or straight to HTC?
And it shouldn't matter if they update it, you can always downgrade with a goldcard.

I think that Inc S has a design flaw when it comes to the power button (just like the USB port) and I think this is affecting most of the Inc S phones out there. The thing is, very few people bother complaining about the degraded functionality of the button, as it still does the job pretty well.
My Inc S's power button lost the clickiness within 1 month from purchase...It still works, but not the way it used to.
In my opinion, if you send it back to HTC Service Centre, they will fix it, but it will brake again as they probably use the same part/component to fix/replace the mechanism.
My advice would be to sell the phone, if that power button really bothers you.

screen turned orange, and the speaker blew

I was playing dead trigger and all the sudden the screen turned orange and the device completely froze... I rebooted and when it came back on my speakers completely blew I can't listen to anything now because the speaker is completely shot...... wth

Return it to wherever you bought it from. Call Google if you ordered from play store.

Was your device very hot before this happened? I've noticed on mine the bottom right gets very hot. I assume this is where the gpu is.

Have you tried a hard reset (hold down power button for like 20 seconds) and do a factory default to rule out software glitch?

This sort of thing happens when a new device is released. Unfortunately it comes with the territory. Just look at pretty much any iPhone ever released...

Hey,
So I have had this phone for about 16 months. I have always loved it. It wasn't rooted or anything like that but I started having issues with it,
Such as, not being able to end a call, pick up, random reboots.
The phone will not power on at all it does however show the battery being charged at 100% when I plug in adapter.
I also cannot get my PC to recognize it, have tried on multiple computers.
Any Ideas would be greatly appreciated
Thanks,
XDAn00b
PS
This my work and business cell so I need it up and running asap even if cost me a few dollars.
I have over 1000 documents/payroll/emails and highly sensitive info
So if you could help there would most certainly be compensated for your time. I don't even care if you remote into my PC. I just really need this or I will lose my job.

I am assuming you tried to pull the battery and wait and put it back again

Hi Cazey.
Take the battery out, replace it, hold volume down and power on. That should take you to the bootloader, a white screen with a few options on it, and probably 'locked' at the top if you haven't played around with custom ROMs yet.
If you can get that far, try selecting 'recovery' and doing a factory reset through there. Note you'll probably lose all the data on your internal memory. This is a bit of a last-ditch effort, so try any other suggestions first. I'm a PM away if you need anything further.

No...
If its locked its got HTC update recovery...
Maybe find the ruu and return it to stock for real...
Otherwise its a hardware issue...

I cannot even get into the bootloader, when I hold the power button down it does nothing, unless its charging and then it just turns into a black screen

I have also done this and it says the device is not recognized

OK...
Do you have an SD card... pull it out...
Remove and replace your sim card...
Maybe push on behind the sim card on the plastic...
Flex the phone a little length wise... A LITTLE
Then try again

Note 8 Verizon shutdown

I've had my note 8 for a while it's the unlocked Version from best buy, once in a awhile the screen goes black but the blue light indicator stays on... I've factory reset few times, I have even ran other tests nothing is showing for me. No damage software or hardware no crazy apks it happens when it's mostly charging.... What do I do. I gotta carry a damn iPhone for my alarm with me so I don't lose my job lol... Please help.

If hard reset has not helped, and as you say, no apps behaving erraticaly, warranty claim is your way to go

What sms app you using? Stock or 3rd party? If using stock. Go in to sms and click on dot top right, then click mark all as read.

Can you make it "act up" after a factory reset with no apps installed? If so, take it back.
Also use it without mem card if you have one already.
