White light under the two sensors? - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So, I have this white line of light under the two light sensors in the top left. It's only visible at a extrem angle, tilting the phone so it almost stands on its head. Is this normal or should I get it replaced?
Here's a picture of it.

I don't have that on my phone, no matter what angle I look at it

I had this exact issue. It's due to a gap in the top of the screen. I returned mine and got a new one. I made a thread also: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=41201912

Cheers guys, will try to get it exchanged tomorrow. Do you usually get a new phone right away and what should I tell them?
Should I have the box and stuff with me as well?

I took mine directly back to ATT, which was where I bought it. They exchanged it on the spot. I just showed them what i was talking about. They had no other questions for me. Mine was even rooted and unlocked lol.

New White Vivid Owner ;)

Hey guys,
I bought the phone today, used just for a week 4 $200,
At&t white version, and im loving it, guy included a hard case white snap on cover, green & black hard plastic one, and a blue otterbox defender series!
So any tip or trick or hack let me know!
Cheers!
I thought about getting the white one, good choice. Welcome!

The white version is pretty sharp, I wished I had the white version.
Tip 1
If you're planning on staying with S-On, just know you'll have to do things differently than those with S-Off.
Tip 2
Don't try and do S-Off until you've read how the procedure is done.
I kinda went at everything blind without reading, which caused me a few problems along the way. I was very fortunate to have the good people of this forum come to my rescue, I'm finally enjoying my HTC Vivid. Happy flashing!
yeah...read, read, and READ lol, but i suggest doing s off once youve read a lot about it and are comfortable...its a lot easier then it sounds-i finally got the guts to do it the other day...it was surprisingly easy and i got it first try...
i was so afraid of doing it cause you have to pretty much short out the phone...but i had already disassembled the phone to change the capacitive button colors to green so i figured if i could do that then i could do s-off
How can you get that price? I looked on ebay but only 250$++

Look on Craigslist.
There are several in my area Craigslist going for $175. I was able to trade my Evo Shift straight up for the HTC Vivid to someone from Craigslist, Good Luck!

OK... As much as I love my Vivid is going towards my wife as of today. I somehow ended up in a AT$T store today and used up my friend's upgrade that he didn't need, and now I'm rocking a brand new HTC one X, which I really love so far. I'm a little worried about the battery life, but so far isn't bad at all. As much as I wanted to go for the galaxy s3, just didn't cut it for me... To be honest I mostly fell for the one x's sexyness ...

New HTC Ones

Does anyone know when HTC will ship new batches of the One? The defects (gap and raised screen) will probably be fixed by the time the 2-3 batches are released so does anyone know when they will be shipped? I upgrade in July and am hoping all these problems are gone by then

Besides aesthetics, are there any differences between the models?
Im coming from the original epic 4g so this is a super upgrade lol.
Ive seen some of the guides and am kinda confused....i want to root my phone and take stuff like facebook off, but i really dont understand how to go about it with the bootloader.
Never had to worry about that with my epic, so im pretty ignnorant. Do i HAVE to unlock bootloader? And if i do, are there
any drawbacks to using htcdev to do it?
Im still getting used to the forum layoit....not sure ive seen all relevant info because theres just so much with 2 development pages lol dont really know where i should be looking...

The two development sections are mainly for rom development, so you won't find what you need there. You should find the answers to most of your questions in Q&A or General

Woot! I came from the Epic as well. Welcome to the One. In about 2 weeks, if you still have the Epic, pick it up. I guarantee your first thought will be "how did I ever get by with such a small device?" Lol. I've been rooted since it was available and the only drawback to dev unlock is the wiping process.
This thing isn't quite as impossible to brick as the Epic but its close. RUU can save most anything but I wouldn't experiment with trying to brick it
I'd give Sense 5 ROMs a try first and see how you like it. If that's not for you then you've got similar ROMs the Epic had. And CM10.2 is extremely stable over here. We're hoping for a 4.3 Sense 5 leak/OTA soon as well. Otherwise follow the guides and you should be good.
And I don't believe there are differences besides appearance.

I'm a week out from my upgrade, and I was originally in the black camp. I'm definitely getting the blue. Its such a good looking phone. Also, I'm holding out hope that the blue might be a little tougher finish than the black, and I swear it feels different in the hand, a little more.. rough? but I could just be going crazy.

Replacement digitizer

Broke my screen couple of days ago. Searching for digitizer since then on ebay, amazon and etc. Can't find proper one, all of them have Droid DNA or ordinary Butterfly.
Any ideas where I can get one? maybe Taiwanese site?

I wonder if Butterfly/Droid DNA's digitizer is compatible, they seem to be almost the same screen, but there are some slight differences though and this may simply be explained by different OEMs. (GSMArena's tests show quite a lot of similarities between Butterfly and Butterfly s screens)
Problem is the that Butterfly doesn't have a second speaker, thus shape of screen is different

It'd be nice if they would simply make an 8-ultra-pixel camera, I only skipped the "One" simply because of the resolution limitations & memory-expansion.

They(HTC) no longer hold a stake in the company itself, but that doesn't mean they don't still have licensing. From what I heard, Beats will continue to be offered.....but, that could just be rumor too.....
According to these articles, it sounds like the M8 isn't going to be much better than our current device. 2GB of RAM, UltraPixel camera (no reference about actual pixel count)
I hope these specs are not correct because I will not be getting it if they are.
HTC you need to step up your game on this device.

I'm ok with the rumored specs, my main concern is what size battery is HTC going with? Anything less than 3000mAh would be an epic failure.
Short battery life was the single reason I got rid of my ONE and ended up with a LG G2.

The phone would need to be a bit bigger for a larger battery. I think that battery life on my DNA is awesome. Although I do run a custom rom and kernel (latest cr-palmer kernel). I really don't think that they should use a smaller battery either, hopefully it will be more advanced.
I have a feeling (other elevate members will know what I'm talking about) HTC is considering going back to removable batteries.

I just wanted a SD. The only real world significance SGS4 has over this HTC in my hand is signal strength, battery, & SD option. My S4 isn't rooted, but signal way better
