[Q] htc one screen problem

hi i am in the uk.. on three network. i got my htc one on the 3rd of april, and 4 days later the screen started to flicker? not all the time? but browsing? esp facebook or anything page with white? i guess the white shows up the flicker more? like i say NOT all the time but soo annoying!! not what i expected from a high end phone? Now let me just say i love this phone.. but thought i cant have this.. so i fill out support form for htc and they reply quick advising me it should not do this and to get it changed. i contact three go through the whole call centre thing (like pulling teeth) anyways the upshot was.. three sent me another brand new phone the next day (yesterday) and took back my first one. And guess what? as soon as i switch the phone on, same screen flicker? i treated the first phone like a new born baby didnt drop or bash it 4 days=screen flicker. another new phone as soon as i use it = screen flicker!! i so love this phone but im so gutted!! any suggestions from ANYONE would help.
kind regards

This isn't helpful but you must just be unlucky to have had it happen twice because mine's been perfect and I've not seen anyone else on this forum mention that problem with theirs.
I guess you'll have to get a new one sent out again and hope for the best :thumbup:

Could you make a short video clip to illustrate your problem ?

hi.. to be honest i dont think a video would pick the problem up? you know i could just be being a kill joy? ive watched videos etc and there really isnt a problem with that at all.. in fact the quality of the picture is fab? if i could use an analogy? remember when the volume control on your stereo would get dust in it? and you would have to twiddle the knob to cure it? its a bit like that? like i say it does not do it all the time but i notice it with white in the screen? like facebook google and when i am navigating thru the screens on the phone like settings etc? the white flickers white/slightly darker white? hence my example? now ive changed my text messages colour scheme so that doesnt annoy me now with it.. but obviously as a electronics layman.. i cant help but think if it was a problem with the screen itself, other colours would do the same as they would if there was a loose connestion? and also if it was a power flow problem with the battery? same thing? not just the white on screen? so i can only conclude as a layman again.. that it is some sort of issue with the os? screen refresh rate maybe? i just dont know? and i cant help think stupidly or not that when htc finally get around to an os update to 4.2.2 (or whatever it is) from 4.1.2 the whole thing will be resolved?

Could it be the auto brightness doing its thing? Try turning it off maybe that might solve it.
I might be totally wrong, be great if that fixed it though. Good luck

well well well!!!! And there you have it!! or at least something like that? ive always used the multi widgit for wifi bluetooth brightness etc? so i have brightness preset on that. instead ive gone into display settings, adjusted brightness with slider? no more flicker!! NO MORE FLICKER!! who ever you are!! thank you!!!!!!!!!!

Was this happening when the stock power widget brightness was set to medium?
If so, I have the same flickering ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2243483 ), but I've found out that its not the power widgets fault per se, but the the the level that it sets it to. The widget set the brightness to 33%, and that the level which I'm getting flickering at, regardless of if it was set with the power widget or by the slider. The flickering happens on screen with a good amount of white. Google search result webpage is a good test case; it shows the flickering clearly at 33%. It also seems to depend on where the white is on the screen. For example, I can induce flickering at 40% brightness by moving a light colored icon from the bottom of the screen to the top! Moving it back to the bottom causes the flickering to go away. I can also do it by moving around or resizing the Gmail widget. Flickering happens for me to some extent at brightness values between 33 and 45 under certain screen conditions. Above or below these brightness values, the screen is top notch, no endless flickering at all regardless of how much white is on screen. I'm starting to think this has to do with the dynamic contrast feature of the One. It seems as though it falls in an endless loop of trying to change the contrast, as if it cant decide on what to set the contrast to. Or it could be that the dynamic contrast is fighting for a certain brightness value, but the manually set brightness is not allowing it. I might be wrong about this, and it could just be a hardware backlight problem, regardless, I wish HTC had the Sense (ha ha!) to allow us to disable dynamic contrast if we wanted to. I'm pretty sure this is whats causing the issue where people see flickering when the keyboard pops up.

screen issue?
hi..
i had the widget set on the third setting, the fourth being the brightest. i had the same problem with my first phone and thought at the time it may have been a backlight problem? or power flow problem? i sent that phone back and the next phone did the same? after posting on here.. i removed the widget and manually adjusted the brightness. i like the screen quite bright, manual adjustment cleared the problem for me. i gotta say yep the flicker was more visible on screens with alot of white, google, facebook, texts? and way way annoying! i can only suggest you try the same as i did? perhaps it is just a quirk with the htc? or maybe the os? you never know, when the update to keylime or whatever it is called comes out the flicker may go totally?

JUST had this on facebook? hope it helps?

[Q] Camera Unable to Focus

Hi,
I have a H1 and today morning i thought of taking some pictures in my garden. Everything went on fine and then all of a sudden my phone's camera was unable to focus on anything. it just stays blurry. and when in touch to focus it just keeps changing the metering. if i turn the app off for 5 min and turn the camera on again it focuses for a few seconds and then again loses focus.
Could this be a hardware issue or software issue? im running ARHD 7.3 with a stock kernel.

I had tried that among other things like changing kernel and upgrading from arhd 7.2 to 7.3..
.
But I noticed something, my battery was low so I was running at 1ghz and now it's at 50% and the problem has gone... Could be a mix of diff software issues.. Fixed for now though... Whew!!!

After a few seconds camera can no longer focus -

Could be due to low power or might also be because of dirt/dust/spec in your camera lens

i fixed the issue buy just putting my phone on charge! it was definitely cause of the low battery. ive programmed setcpu to underclock it to 1ghz when it reached under 25% battery, so that was causing the issue..since then ive not seen the issue crop up again. i highly doubt dust can get in so there shouldnt be any need to panic about it.:good:

hmmmmm....wow i thought it was a custom rom issue..maybe rooting the phone and the installing a cpu governer like daemon or setcpu might help..you try setting minimum frequency to 1.2 and see if that helps..
coz i got myself an O2 version from uk and installed a custom rom on it.. and well one morning it started acting whacky..but putting it on charge helped..it could be possible..i sifted through the other posts and i believe we are the only 2 people who have faced this problem..but had it been a hardware issue it would not have been fixed so easily so im pretty sure its a software bug..

Could be a problem with the camera sensor over heating

Wow is that even possible? I did not know that.. The problem Did come up after I tried some panoramic shots and a few regular pics out in the sun..

T-mobile have offered to replace my phone
And HTC UK have offered to take it for repair..
Not sure which option gives me the quickest turn around.
It's annoying as it works fine from time to time.

That's sad.. Coz I know how it feels to not have your phone with you.. I was lucky then I guess that it got fixed for me automatically.. But dad's theory could be correct about the sensor heating up.. Keeping in mind that it's more sensitive to light in the first place
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app

and the problem is back again i was out with my friends last night and we were testing low light capabilities and the moment i switched to hdr video the camera gave up again... now its not even able to focus after being put on charge.. i tappe the phone a couple of times and it focussed but again failed..you think its a hardware issue
? or a power management issue by the kernel??(tried stock and bulletproof kernels)

Definitely sounds like the sensor overheating. On a lot of dSLR cameras with video and live view, they switch off after a short time to avoid the sensor failing

But I left the phone along overnight and it still had trouble holding focus for too long.. 5 or 6 seconds max... Could there be a possible software issue too coz apart from me only one other person is facing the same issue..
Sent from my HTC One using xda-developers app

That is why it sounds like hardware fault. If it was software, then more people wold be getting the problem.
Once it has cooled down for about 5-10 mins then it will work again, briefly.
Send back for a replacement, is my recommendation

i cant...i had it imported so its almost impossible to get it replaced..ill have to figure something else out...

Anyone else facing the same issue? it keeps cropping up again and again..

Anyone facing ghost touch on rooted 4.4?

I have unlocked and rooted with the latest 4.4 but have been facing lot of ghost touch, over heating and freeze. Is anyone else facing the same issues with their z1?

I haven't as yet but I did notice that the touch screen issue I had where my finger / thumb would lose contact briefly with the screen.
Hasn't happened a lot and holding the metal frame fixes it.
What youre describing could be a knock on effect of the new firmware having a higher sensitivity to the previous firmwares, I know Sony were aware of the touchscreen issue that people were facing and there was a fix where you could alter the sensitivity of the touch screen.
Could be that your touchscreen is set too high for your device in particular, either that or it's a problem with the touchscreen or even some dirt.
Give it a good old clean and a few reboots.
All the above is speculation of course, just having a stab at it for you m8.
Not sure where that thread is about the touchscreen but it's definitely in the Z1 forum.

So on the base that you were on you didn't have any issues, Rooting itself will not cause this issue.
What base were you on prior to rooting and what are you on now?

Same here, after rooting mine, it starts again the touch screen to respond strange, but not a big problem. Did not had this on .136.

Actually Rooting can cause the issue because the Pre-Rooted version can be different from the original one installed on our phone.
After I received the phone from Repair they updated the Software and then I updated to .136 officially and the issue disappear, never had even a bit of it. Then I rooted, but to do so I used a different Base, NUT use the Frence region I think, and after that on mine .136 the problem with Touch Screen appear again, not badly, all is fine but sometime it skips something.
So I think it's really related to the Software and the all the phone have a specific Base.

Then it would be down to the rom and not the rooting process, rooting alone won't affect the touchscreen m8.
The Rom could though.

Of Course.

i have not experienced ghost touch but i did experience the screen failing to register two finger touch sometimes.
what i mean by that is when u quickly touch another part of the screen after its been touched it would register it as a swipe.
very annoying when typing keyboard or even pressing key pin on lockscreen.
i reproduced this in touch test and
once it registers as a faulty swipe while holding down the touch
it keeps registering swipe wherever the other finger presses untill i stop touching.
also when i installed a fresh rom it seems that the touch is very sensitive.
i tried this out http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2691849
its not a fix but it helps out.

I think i have drilled down to the cause for this issue.
1. I started mounting my phone on my motorbike and ride. Due to excessive vibration the screen might have started acting out.
2. I also read that x alert causes this.
I have locked bootloder and installed stock ROM. Lets see whats happens

What is that or where it is?

Been trying to find that adjustment you can make for the touchscreen but can't find it. Its an adjustment of a file within android which deals with how sensitive the touch screen is. Buggered if I can find it though. I commented on it too. Eluded me.

Maybe that Calibration.ini file magically can help?
BTW, if you find that thread let me know because I am interested too in changing the sensitivity, I will like to play with that.

I would definitely be interested in this as well so could you please inform me as soon as you find something? Thanks

I am unable to pin point the problem.
1. Its not bcoz of root/boot loader
2. Not bcoz of mouting it on my bike. Infact when i mount it, it functions normally.
3. Ghost touch worsens when i play clash of clans but it is there other times too.
So its either bcoz of over heating (games make the phone heat a lot) or water entered it or i am not sure.

He found my thread
I always surf the forums and check out what is happening, and this thread did catch my eye
I don't like to think that the touch screen issue is hardware related. I really hope it isn't.
Don't put your heart on this 'fix', as I have lost faith in it myself...
I'm going to post there now as well, to tell people what I have said here.

Brightness issues

I have this weird brightness problem where I have it at 50% and it would randomly dim and brighten like crazy. I tested at 100% brightness and it also dims and brightens. Obviously, I don't have it on auto brightness but it sure acts like it.
Anyone with the same issue? Is it a defect? I just got the phone today and I'm afraid to exchange it to have the same problem again. I really like this phone. There's always a friggin issue on a new phone. It's ridiculous.

I think is a software problem. Lollipop still have lot to fix. Mines look the same. Can be a display minor isue. Not sure, but for me this phone doesn't have the best brighness at all. But I love this phone better than others for now. If you came from samsung phone, there is a big diferent in brightness. Post some screen shoot. One in a white background, and the other in a grey one. I will post the same and you tell me if something is diferent. Sorry for my grammar. Is not the best !!!!?

In Q&A is a thred call DPI Change. Try that, but reed carfully. you'll need root for that.

I appreciate your input but I don't know how the things you mentioned would help me in my case. I would need to do a video in order to see the problem instead of screen shots. Dpi change will do nothing in this case as well. You may be confused with the issue I have.

Well I try my best. As I sed could be a software problem. DPI is a resolution thing, can help a little. Also you can link a video to see exactly what you talking about. The reson I ask for the screen shoot is becaus I can probably see a differences between your brightness and mines. Hope somebody can help you on that.

Colour screen issue - phosphorite colours

Hello. Issue is the screen all of a sudden turns into very phosphorite colours. I've searched for any similar issue here in xda and have not seen anyone else with this problem..
In another forum (Spanish only) various people have reported the same issue after my post there. And in most of the cases the issue seems to show up after watching a video/movie potentially related with Netflix and/or HDR.
Rebooting solves the issue. And another person reported that after leaving the phone locked for some time the colours were back to normal...
Have note 8 for less than a month and this has happened 2 times already.
I post here as audience will be wider.
Anyone with same issue or idea?
Thx a lot

I think we're waiting on pics. Phosphorite is a rock, so I'm not sure what phosphorite colour means.

sounds some settings in the screen mode were changed. when it happens again, dont reboot just go toggle a few different setting and see if it fixes it. also, having tinted colors(phosphorous?) seems as RGB got changed under the advanced settings in the display mode settings.
I do know some apps are be able to change brightness so mybe other can change color settings? some sort of a blue light filter or 'night' mode?( tint to a warmer shade?)

Is it only when you're charging? I have my screen saver set to colour, and I'd describe those as psychedelic. But I just have to touch the screen to make it stop.

Haha. Yes phosphorite is probably not the right word... the screen turns into fluorescent colours (like in a highlighter pen). Hope this clarifies... let's see if it happens again and I take some pictures.
Thanks for the responses so far
