I'm thinking about buying this little thing in the future so I must ask you about it - is it useful? Would you recommend it or not?

Well is useful for people who do jogging, because I think that is easier just pull out your x8 and do your thing, more details search in youtube: Sony Ericsson LiveView™

what does the LiveView do? and why would you would prefere it for jogging?
It's something like a wireless phone controller. It connects through Bluetooth and looks like a watch. Very interesting device.

but share your experience after 2 weeks or so. becouse when you get something new, its always cool ... after a while you will see that maybe its not so useful you thought.
Think it would be more useful if it wasn't for the capacitive-style buttons. With proper clickables, it could serve well as a pocketed remote control for music. As it is now, you have to pull "something" out of your pocket to swap tracks... and that "something" might just as well be your phone.
Been thinking about getting one myself, but for the purpose of swapping tracks, cyanogenmod does the trick by fiddling with volume/camera buttons.
are you realy listening musik from your phone! because i need to charge it daily and i even dont whatch movies or like that. i think this phone is just good be stylish and maybe to spend time with playing some games! ;(
This thing is very useful. I use it to check text messages when I'm in school And my phone seems to last longer cuz the screen isn't on as much

Sold my mp4 because of that phone. I don't like to carry so many devices as my friend (Milestone 2 + iPhone + iPod Touch + another mp4 player), one phone is great for me and I really listen to the music all day rly!
And I'm interested in buying LV because of the power of that small device. Music control, wristwatch, facebook, notes, reading messages...
its upto the person as to how useful you would find the item to be fair, I'm quite happy just taking my phone out of my pocket and using it that way... lol but its each to their own preference. Sony released a watch based phone product before i think, and that never really "took off"
I posted this in droidforums.net and figured I would post it here also.
"I have had this phone pretty much since it came out. Every once in a while my sound is screwed up. It sounds like the speaker is blown in it and then all of a sudden it comes back. Some times I lose the sound completely. What makes me think the speaker is not screwed up is I plugged my transmitter in to listen to music in car and it sounded screwed up through my car speakers. Anyone else having this problem?"
Someone at DF told me it did it to him but when he installed mav rom it pretty much went away so I'm gonna give it a try. Maybe some devs can look into it and see what's up. If anything I'm gonna .sbf and test and if it does it still get a replacement.

I have had that issue on multiple droid 3's, on multiple software revisions, and on multiple roms. It also only seems to affect me on ring, text, or notification. I can not think of once that happened when playing music.

Has happened to me before too, both through speaker annd through the headphone out on multiple roms. Always fixes its self right away so…

I've had it happen on ringtones, headphone out, and on live hold'em poker game. Also had it happen though the ear peace when talking on phone. Its crazy! Normally fixes itself within 5-20 seconds.

This happens to me too, but is more widespread across apps. it happened to me watching a youtube once, it sounded really hollow and robotic. i paused and played the video and it went back to normal. also i have a super mario bros. notification tone that is already kind of polyphonic/robotic but every once in a while i get a text and it sounds like my phone is speaking Decepticon
When HTC Sound Enhancer failed under Mango we lost a great tool but I hear its replacement has been released - HTC Sound Optimization. Apparently its in the US Marketplace (but not NZ).
Has anyone got their hands on it?
Can anyone tell me where to get it?
Anyone tried it? On pdaimatejam's wonderful ROM?
Sent from my HD2 using Board Express
Did the soundenhancer ever work for you? Have I missed something?
For me, everytime I started him, the biggest use I could get from him was the pushing of the max. volume, but that effect ended after every track.
The app never really "enhanced" the sound for me.
Sound Enhanced pulled out marketplace since Mango released.... not support Mango
Sound Enhancer WAS pulled but Sound Optimization is the Mango REPLACEMENT. Many articles online about it, and that is why I want I want to try it if anyone can direct me to or supply it!
Sent from my HD2 using Board Express
I looking for this too. Actually in Polish Marketplace it doesn't appear. Anyone have an xap of it?
I've only found articles and whatnot. but i never have actually found it. i spent one whole day just searching for that. but if you figure out how to work the old enhancer, its good enough. to really tell the difference you gotta use headphones
Still no luck myself but will post if I find it!
Sent from my HD2 using Board Express
What if some one flashes a mango rom. and then brand it like a surround or hd7 and try to get it.
My HD2 identifies as an HD7 but doesn't recognise the update is available
Sent from my HD2 using Board Express
Hey, I don't want to open up a new thread.
So, I'm asking here - is there anyone with the new XAP of HTC Sound Optimization as is the old Sound Enhancer is now called?
I'm using Intrinsinc, I'm seeing the Attentive phone app, but not the Sound Enhancer/Sound Optimization app.
Regards,
Alex.
If there was we'd have posted it. I haven't found it or been prompted to update to it (Ansar ROM)

Hi guys,
I have done some research on here for the last 2 days but I have not come across a definitive answer so I decided to ask outright. When ever I watch some specific youtube videos and play a few specific mp3s the boomsound speakers crackle with Beats ON but no crackle with Beats OFF.
Is this a common software problem with you guys on firmware 1.28?
Or is this a speaker hardware problem (therefore I need to exchange my phone as I am still within my 28 day exhange period?
If it is a software problem is it also true that firmware 1.29 solves this crackling but lowers the overall volume of the device?
I would really appreciate your feedback please as I do like the phone but I do not want to have to return the phone unless I definitely have to as I did manage to get one which has no gaps, screen isues, etc.
Phone is on firmware 1.28.401.7 and I am NOT rooted.
Thanks
What do you mean by 'specific'? I don't have any problems, a link might help to see if its only your phone.

Good Point. Please try the following youtube video on your HTC ONE with Beats ON. Can others please try it also. My ONE crackles a lot during this video.

Same problem here. It only happens in youtube for me so its probably just a software problem.
I'm pretty sure it's just the Beats software. If you download one of the Air Horn apps from the Play Store and run it with Beats on, it crackles like crazy. Run it with Beats off, and it runs fine.

Just tried it and you are right. My crackles a lot too.
So i guess it may be a software issue after all then. So my next question is does the 1.29 OTA solve this Beats crackling problem at the expense of lowering the overall phone volume? I am VERY curious to know the answer to that question.
I just tried the video and got no crackle on this specific video but .... I've heard it plenty of times on other YouTube videos so you're not alone.
I'm hoping this is easily fixed with a software update since Beats seems to be the culprit here. But like the OP said I'd like to know now so we can exchange the device if it's faulty.

My top external speaker crackles when i play music at a semi-loud volume and crackles with the video link posted above. I have searched around the web and it seems like this problem is very limited. Many people complain about some very low level pops or clicks in the audio when using headphones but this issue is different. It sounds like the speaker has some kind of mechanical issue. Sounds like the speaker is blown.
I really dont want to exchange the phone. :crying:
Mine ONLY does it watching YouTube. Everything else I have tried works just fine.

I totally understand. I have a near perfectly built phone and I don't want to risk exchanging it unless I definitely know for a fact that this crackling is a hardware problem. Can I ask, what firmware are you experiencing the crackling on?
I am on 129.1540.3. It crackles with beats on or off.
I called letstalk and they are sending a replacement phone. Crossing my fingers I am not trading one issue for another.
Sent from my HTC One using xda premium
I'm not sure if my One has this issue.
With Beats enabled, I can definitely hear a "pop" whenever there is a cut in the video. Considering the audio quality is somewhat improved with Boomsound, I don't find it so distracting.
With Beats disabled there is no "pop" or crackling.
Oh, I am with 1.29.401.12.
My speaker has distortion and static when audio is played at any volume above half. The distortion and static is heard during the playback and not just before or after the audio is played.

My top speaker was definitely blown. I got a replacement phone and all is well.

Youtube App
I too have this problem the ota 1.29 has not solved it. When I watch/listen to music/film using the YOUTUBE APP I get the pop and crackling every few seconds. However if I watch or listen to the same stuff through the browser and mobile youtube I do not have the problem. Also via youtube app but wireless disabled and using 3g no crackle or pops. It's definitely something to do with the Youtube App and over wireless.
Testing via headphones seems to have no issues under any circumstances very strange definitely a software issue.
Try turning off Beats.
It pops a little in the bottom speaker. I think it is particles
similitudes some
I think is the speaker. Suck the usb port and the crackling gets worst.
Just ordered a red sprint HTC one . should be here by Saturday, coming from the 4g late, and before that, the evo 3D.
Anything I need to know?

It is the best phone I have ever owned, you will be very pleased with your purchase.
You won't be disappointed in any way man

As big dee and darkraven said,it's the best phone ever made with a sleek and stylish aluminium body which makes it body more durable than the S4 and xperia z.
It runs on 4.3 and will be recieving an update in Early 2014(in february,i think)
It has a 1.7 ghz krait 300 quadcore processor (the 4g lte only has a 1.5ghz dualcore) along with 2gb of ram.So performance is supossed to be surprising.the super LCD3 4.7 inches screen has a resolution of
1080 x 1920 pixels(~469 ppi pixel
density) which makes blurry shots look fantastic

It's a great phone, but should of waited a bit for it's successor which is coming out by March/April most likely. Other than that, you'll be pleased with it. Fantastic build quality and specs overall.

Just got the phone in, it is very sexy and sleek. But I am dissapointed.
It has a clean ESN but when I tried to activate the phone online, they told me that the phone was still tied to another account.
Anything I can do guys?

Contact the seller and ask them to release the phone from the account.
The guy you purchased it from has to activate another phone on that line and it will release the HTC one. That's all you can do for now.

Yeah long story short, I can't contact the guy because I bought this phone off eBay, of a store called gazelle.
Are there any guides to flash to cricket or boost? I've been trying till find some, but I can't find any

Try calling sprint to activate it or contact the store and return it for a replacement or see if they can get it de-activated for you

Also new to HTC One
Introducing myself. I'm also new to the HTC One. Previously had an HTC Evo Design 4G. I'm finding a few things which disappoint me.
1. That home screen. I don't want that feed thing on it, but it is apparently part of the OS. The only way I've found to not see it is to designate one of the other screens as my home screen. I can't actually get rid of it.
2. I just discovered that the HTC Hub soundsets aren't on this phone, and I don't find a way to go to the Hub to get them. I went over to the Evo forum here and downloaded them. I'll hook my phone up to the computer and put them in the appropriate folders.
3. Regarding the sounds, it doesn't appear that I can have different notification sounds for different messages. On the Evo, I had one sound for email, another for text messages, a third for calendar notifications, and a fourth for other notifications. I could tell by the sound if it was something I should look at immediately (text messages), something which could wait (emails), or someplace I was supposed to be (calendar notifications). So unless I there's somewhere in each individual app to customize the sounds, I'll have to either look at everything that comes in or ignore them all until I have time to go through them.
If any of you have any input on how to get the phone to do what I want (i.e. go to HTC Hub for stuff or set up individual notification sounds), let me know. I haven't finished exploring my new phone, so it might give me some pleasant surprises sometime soon.

Hello ,
1. There are a couple custom roms that disable blinkfeed, TranquilOne is one of those roms, or use a different launcher like Apex,Nova,ect.
2. I don't use MyHub so I can't comment on that
3. I'm pretty sure notifications can be separated with different sounds...or maybe just on custom roms. You may have to go into setting of each app and set the sound you want

I'll take a look at TranquilOne.
Back on the Evo, I could select a Sound Scheme and a set of sounds would be applied to several different types of notifications. On the ONE, I had to individually apply each sound to each type of notification. Doable, but a PITA after being used to the Sound Schemes on the Evo.
