There aren't, it seems like a bug in the software with HTC, which they said there is a fix "coming soon".

awesomexda, where did you purchase your inc s from? what country are you currently in?
What country has the phone originated from?
This is what happened this morning.
"I just had HTC contact in regards to my **** feedback to them lol.
The lady went on to say that someone else had contacted her about the exact same issues and she told me that MobiCity should not be selling overseas phones to us because of frequency problems and so on. She said she is going to contact them directly aswell as aussie warranty to either send me an australian built one or give me a refund because of the rare situation we are in.
So it seems like it is something with the way the phones built.
I'll keep you guys updated. "
That's on android forums.
Thanks neo-X for the information !
I'm in sri lanka. It's HTC asia one. I bought it here. I think this is a major issue. most of the people who bought the phone have been experiencing issues like this. I'm disappointed with HTC becuase they said INC S is a flagship device and has no errors. But I still luv me device even though it has got problems.
Thanks people

Yeah it seems that asian sourced phones will sometimes not work properly in other countries for some reason.

Cyanogen and MIUI roms have no SMS delays with 3G Preferred is selected.. Lets hope HTC fixes their rom rather than going from sense 2 to 3.5.. :|

Yeah the latest is that HTC are releasing a new asia rom to fix this problem in the next week. I heard that like 2 months ago though!

No idea mate. That's all i got from them.
Here is my experience- I contacted HTC support in Singapore this week and was excited to read the email response:
"I would suggest you to go to the local service center to install the lately released patch on your Incredible S on the spot."
I rushed to the service centre, only to find out that HTC's definition of a "lately released patch" was to roll back to 2.2
At least the delayed SMS issue is now resolved!

I've tried MIUI, I like it, but it didn't really fix the problem. It seemed to make it slightly better, but I was still getting messages 10 mins late or so. I've just flashed CM7 Nightlies, but it doesn't show the time stamp of when the message was sent, only of when it was received so I can't really judge if it fixes the problem or not.

Same here, im on cm7 but can't judge it.
Here is what HTC said.
"Dear _,
Thank you for your reply.
After checking, we regret to inform you that we have been aware that the message delay is a known issue after Incredible S upgrades from Android 2.2 to 2.3 But currently our engineer is trying to finding out a workable solution for it. If there is any update or patch for the issue, we would put the information on our official webstie. And from our side, if there is any update, we will also inform you. We do apologize for any inconvenience which was brought by the phone issue.
We have to say that currently for the SMS delay issue, the only method is trying to select "GSM only" mode.
But for the **phone ringing issue**, we would suggest that you may try to put your phone in the safe mode to see whether there is improvement for the phone ringing problem.
Before you put your phone in safe mode, make sure that you have your fast boot option unchecked: Menu > Settings > Power > Make sure "Fast Boot" is unchecked.
To put the Sensation into Safe Mode, you may follow the steps 1.With the Device turned off 2.Press the power button briefly 3.keep holding the Volume down button once you see the splash screen (HTC quietly brilliant) 4. Once it loads you will see on the “Safe Mode” on the bottom left of the screen.
****, we are looking forward to your kind action and appreciate the time taken to write to us. Please feel free to contact us should you require further assistance.
Best Regards
June"
Apparently Optus kicked up a stink with HTC and made them fix this issue. There is a new Optus ROM but can't find it anywhere on here.

Hi
Just wanted to know if others experience this too?
when making a phone call, my sound is lagging/blurry/scratching. Sometimes sound like (kind of) a robot.
I live in the city, and signal loss or network change is therefore not an issue.
Just thought it was wierd, but guess it will be fixed with update.
From post #12:
I hoped this was just a software error, but baseband upgrade and custom ROM didn't work. This is how it sounds
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/4651820/Stemme 002.amr (starts around 15 sec)
Exact same thing here. Sounds like a loose connection in the speaker. Same city as you, but on 3 instead of TDC. Nothing to do with network, it's either soft-or hardware error in the LG. Let's just hope it's soft
no problem here the sound is perfekt. i have telia
Its a known problem.
I sent the phone back as DOA because of this and few other problems.
Sorry. Forgot to change provide r, I'm on 3 as well...
I hope it's software too. Waiting for better rom from paul before testing...
My camera has stopped working as well of today : s
Started of so well with the phone. But sucks with bugs on stock rom

Thanks for heads up. Looks like it's software error fortunately, so Im more calm now
Found this at Paul's forum.
"Problem solved with the new baseband I think. Haven't noticed any tinny sound effect when in phone - either 2G or 3G connectivity.
It's a shockingly large improvement. Really bad that LG sells the phone with that software because mine was almost unusable in crowds because you had no idea what the other person was saying. Will be keen to jump to newer basebands now if they become available since it's proven it does make a huge difference. At least it's not a reason to NOT buy this phone anymore since it's easily fixable thanks to Paul now "
Problem was solved after update.

Hehe, funny to be quoted here, from a thread I started over at MoDaCo. According to my poll there a lot of 2X users experience bad sound.
Like I wrote at MoDaCo - I haven't noticed any weird sound after the baseband flash, so please upgrade and tell me if you also notice an improvement. I'll update the thread accordingly.
Btw, what baseband are you currently on?

If this is truly a hardware issue, don't delay- send it back. Furthermore, be mindful of the replacement you receive. Here is an example of an "ugly" situation that happened between two owners. Be firm & inspect your replacement thoroughly- if it's not in "like-new" condition or has residual data from a previous owner, argue for a brand new 2X.

I think we got quite good policies in Denmark, so I'll probably just get a new one at first But thanks for the advice. Hopefully the next will show up better.
A friend of mine experienced pixel "errors" on his AND his girlfriends, so the next one better be fully functional... I know that TDC provider in Denmark wanted to postpone the release too, because of malfunctioning devices. This was before they ever sold any, and they haven't got them in stock yet
I hoped this was just a software error, but baseband upgrade and custom ROM didn't work. This is how it sounds
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/4651820/Stemme 002.amr (starts around 15 sec)
Now I just have to wait for "three" to send it in, and return a new one... if it happens three times, I'll get my mony back, and perhaps go for the SGS2 and hope it gets Tegra2... a shame, such a nice phone otherwise. Hope they make it work, but I hear a lot of complaints *fingers crossed*
EDIT: Damn, just heard of three occasions of the same problem here in Denmark... hope they can fix it
I'm not experiencing any scratchy sounds like you, not even before I upgraded baseband. So I guess it's not all O2X in Denmark that has the problem.
I bought mine through Callme.

The problem has been there all the time for me. Just saying the update didn't work for me, so I guess it is hardware related in my case. There has just been some discussions about wether it is hardware or software related.
The problem doesn't occure on all devices, but some are unlucky. 2 of my friends, which bought it on the release date, as my self, has experienced the same problem.
Also, on mobildebat.dk (danish forum) people complain about having the same problem. Such a shame.
I turned in my phone now, and has to wait for up to 10 days for LG to come up with a solution now Hope it goes faster. If i went down to the store last wednesday, I would hav gotten a new phone right away, due to 14 days return policy. Now I have to use my Nokia N82, damn it's slow
Hi,
I have had the same problems on my week old phone. Scrathy sound, Buzzing sound that both ends can hear and the other end sounding "tinny" or like a robot.
I also had random reboots.
Sent it in to repairs monday, hopefully it won't come back with "no faults found".
MY local Telia shop, where I bought the phone, hadn't heard about the problem from more than 1-2 people. Danish LG customerservice also hadn't heard about it. (This was a week ago.)
BTW: Is it normal for camera area to get very hot during calls? I had that too. Battery time was ok. 1-1½ day of normal use. Heavy wifi/talk/gps = less than a day.
I made a recording of the buzzing sound (starts at around 20secs in.):
dl.dropbox.com/u/4130839/Out_2011_03_27_14-06-29_%2B4550800950.3gp
This buzzing is sometimes so loud you cant hear what ppl are saying, and they have a hard time hearing you too.

Upgrade to version D
Hi there!
Did the upgrade to version D about a week ago. Still had issues with reboots from the first day so I did a hard reset to factory default.
You'd think things would improve!!!
Within 24 hours it started rebooting again. This time in a continuous loop. Even a battery pull couldn't stop it. Had to do a hard reset again. Naturally lost everything on it.
Have now asked Phones4u for a replacement. They've been very helpful. Even extended the return period. I reckon they know the 'phones has issues. Waiting for the replacement.
SO 'NO' THE VERSION D UPGRADE DOESN'T FIX THE REBOOTING PROBLEM!!!
I've been using XDA/HTC branded 'phones since 2002 and have NEVER had any issues with them.
If the replacement has the same problem I'll be asking Phones4u for non LG phone replacement.
In the meantime I'm using my trusty old HD2 to with a HTC Desire HD rom
http://mobile.engadget.com/2011/05/...orlds-first-dual-core-phone-necessitating-an/
Great stuff - the more coverage the better .
Nice! I just posted both today's articles on the Facebook page of LG Germany (http://www.facebook.com/LG). Let's see how much longer LG can remain silent about it.
heard from LG today who told me the update/fix was now available and gave me a link to their support page.
I checked my phone and it says i'm already up to date with v10D
yes - it seems that LG in all their "wisdom" still have no clue and beleive the earlier released baseband update would fix these problems - which it doesnt.
I have heard others in different parts of the world receive the same answer regarding the update.
Actually my mom's phone was almost problem free on EURO OPEN 10b. I updated it to Bulgaria 10D and she told me that the phone had shut off. I updated with EURO OPEN 10C and again it's problemless
So the update thats supposed to fix the problems is the 10D-update? If thats the case I'm throwing this POS away and never gonna look at another LG-thing again. That means throwing my TV out aswell.
Seems like LG gives two ****s about this issue and hey, why would they? They already got my money.
I have contacted BBC News tonight as maybe they can run story on the tech page?
Maybe if others emailed them too, they will be more willing to run it.
I copied the link to this http://www.trustedreviews.com/news/l...reboot-problem
and told them basic's.

Believe it our not, but v10D makes it worse. Our phone now has the charging freeze going more. Before v10D we didn't have that.

I also have troubles on V10d. LG is just trying to buy more time here....
Jakob
My phone has been v10b (i gather it is a uk version of v10d) from the day i purchased it, which is almost over a month ago, phone shut off only a couple of times and rebooted once, may be twice till a week ago. Since a week ago it started rebooting almst every day once, mostly in the mornings. So can‘t see how that could be a fix.

Yesterday I purchased the LG Optimus 2x however after a day or so of use I notice that sometimes when I tap on an icon etc. it will not respond and I have to tap it a second time. This happens every 5 minutes. It seems I don't have a touch sensitivity issue when using downloaded apps. (I may be wrong). What is my problem? I have to also point out that my hands are sometimes a bit sweaty? Could this be the cause? Should I return it and get another one?
Upgrade to the latest version of the firmware and you should be fine. As I recall this used to happen on the first few versions of Froyo. (Android 2.2)
If you already have updated, I guess you can try another Launcher.
You think so?

I cannot be sure without physical access to the device. All I can say is that this used to happen on the early Froyo versions, and disappeared after a few updates. I'd say it's a strong indication your device is fine and that the firmware is to blame.

Within the parameters you've given (no rooting) I guess the only options left are to take it to a Fido retailer and tell them to upgrade it for you or exchange it for another model, or search the internet high and low for a smartflash or kdz-rom (official p990hn firmwares) you can flash.
I think you should contact Fido about the matter in some way or other. The Fido O2X GB release should be out by now (27. jan.), so someone forgot to flip a switch.

Exactly! It should be out! It's rediculous that it's not updating. I already messaged LG and today I will be speaking with Fido. This is very frustrating, especially with the glitchy firmware I have to deal with 24 7. Thanks for the help

Most definitely. LG software is really crappy and CM7 is very smooth indeed so you might wanna try that.
Also you could try GO Launcher, maybe that improves your phone a bit.

I'm so glad someone has the same problem as me. I'm sure it's the firmware the phone is running though. Hopefully :s. Keep my updated!

Same problem here. Unfortunately still after switching to Miui. Same problem.
Now I wonder: Is it the screen or the system that lags and causes this issue?
Hi All,
My wife recieved her HTC One this morning from EE. Because shes happy with her iPhone 5 she gave it to me. So i have 2! lol
Now ive been comparing these devices to decide on which one ill keep. Decided to keep my own one, because its factory unlocked and a better build quality, (The EE one isnt bad, just slightly more gappy than mine) however, i have a question regarding NFC.
When both enabled, they do work on both devices, however the NFC symbol only appears on the EE device, is there a reason for this? Just confused to as why my Sim free version dont display this.
Can anyone answer this? Not a problem to me just baffled!
Thanks in advance.

The reason is that HTC disabled this icon following the first firmware upgrade. When the EE device gets updated... it will disappear. Even sooner if you flash a custom ROM.

Got ya, thanks dude for the Quick reply. Its a shame, it could be quite a useful icon to have. Especially if you forget the NFC is on. . .
Yeah I have seen thisvery thing between different stock builds of various ROMs.
What it is, is a line in build.prop that determins whether the icon is shown or not. Certain people (myself included) think that there is no need to show it. You do not need reminding it's on as it uses such little power. Set it and forget it.
ro.nfc.icon.enable=false
Awesome. I thought it used up a little bit of power, but now i know. I shall just leave on. . . Thanks guys!
So i rooted my new nexus 6 and installed chroma rom. every thing was fine till i noticed a small part of the screen flicker. it was like a black line coming and going as soon as i took it off charging it was fine. this was after i installed the rom there was nothing like this on the stock one. also when i open the camera app i can hear a small click/ crackle sound. this happened in the stock rom too but with the snapchat app. its irritating and i cant find a fix anywhere. and lastly whats with the network issue? it suddenly comes and goes. i checked it and it showe 0dbm and 99 asu?is this common? tried to find a fix but all i got was lots of unanswered threads. as being a student who need to use this phone for a long time can anyone tell me if all this is fixable ? or do i need to get a replacement as im still in my 30 day return period. thanks in advance and sorry if all this issues are already in a post and have fixes just post me the link as i could find it
being a student who needs the use of the phone for long periods of time.. what are you foing moddifying your device. no custom rom will be bug free. even though whtyever bugs dont bother me, they seem to bug you. why dont you just stay stock with root if those issues are bugging you.

I know no roms are bug free, just wanted to know if these are common software issue and not a bad device that i got. And on the other hand i used my s3 for 2.5-3 yrs with custom roms and stuff simply as i enjoy running them and seeing all the amazing stuff people can do with skill that was the main reason i got a nexus
