[Q] Anyone else have v0004 hardware? - Sprint HTC One (M7)

Just got my HTC one (blue best buy version) and aside from the top of the screen being a hairs width higher than the top speaker grill, it seems perfect. No camera issues (pitch black laid on a table), no apparent gaps in the plastic surround, and no other defects I can find. Anyone else care to sound off with hardware version and any defects you have?

4 and not any that I have noticed

I was almost positive there was a 0003 but I could be wrong.

0004, Mine is from launch

0004 and the only complaint is thecamera. That was against my hand so its purple but at night, especially outside, it is a very noticeable blue. Plus the very noticeable "blocks" are pretty disappointing. I also have a problem with most pictures coming out blurry, has a small focus area that is clear and everything else seems faded.

4... I have the red one. No camera issues and everything fits like a glove.

Well seems like there's probably only the 0004. So much for my theory that maybe that had anything to do with anything. I wish there was (or maybe there is) a way to see more detailed build date information. Maybe that would shed some light on things.

Got mine about three weeks ago.

Not to discredit your complaints. They're real issues. But are you sure the focus issue isn't related to depth of field? It's especially exaggerated on the f/2.0 aperture of our camera. But there are others too that confirmed it's a real defect, almost like the glass is out of place in the lens.

This is mine. So sick of it.

Have 0004 and have a very tiny gap, screen isn't flush with the grill, but not by a lot and my camera has the annoying blue and purple colors in darkness but I'm not complaining. 4.3 is supposed to fix the camera issue so we'll see what happens.
The picture is the camera pressed against my palm.

I have 0004, and I don't have any camera problems. I do have the bottom-speaker-louder-than-top-speaker issue, though. I've also noticed that the bottom right of my screen is slightly warped inward, because the plastic on the bottom-right of the device tapers its width down slightly. But that hasn't caused me any problems.
I do have some of those aluminum-plastic gaps that some have complained about, but those don't really bother me. I keep the device in a case most of the time, anyways.
Every other little flaw (lackluster graphics performance, popping sound when WiFi is enabled), I feel, is the fault of software, which will ideally be corrected, if US carriers ever give us non-rooters 4.3.

Got mine on launch day and it's been perfect! No rough edges, no gaps (at least from what my naked eye can see), no sound or connectivity issues. My experience had been excellent. This device will encourage me to keep buying and supporting HTC devices in the future. Attached a pic of my camera held up to my palm. No odd coloring at all.

My purple issue is very bad, am also on 0004. Took it to sprint, and I will be getting a replacement on Thursday, hopefully this one will be purple camera free

I've only seen 0004.

I was showing my friend some of these pictures, and he said that it looks kinda like a pinched/damaged LVDS cable. With the way everything is packed so tight inside modern smartphones, and especially the One in particular, this sounded plausible to me. It does go against HTC's theory that it is a software issue, and I hope for the sake of those with issues it is just software. What do you guys think?

I noticed this morning the balance sounded off, my bottom speaker also sounds louder that the top. Is there a easy way to fix this?

0004 launch phone. Only complaint is the purple or red in low light camera shots.

Best phone? Worst phone? Who cares?

Just from reading through a load of the threads in this forum, I've noticed a lot of indecision.
Let me explain...
Apparently, this phone has not got enough in stock to make sure everyone gets one, there's a buzz from the earphones, it heats up too much, it has poor battery life, poor touch sensitivity, easily scratchable, screen smashes too much, it drops down the toilet too easily, it makes a rattling noise, yellow tint, screen glitching, the screen looks washed out, massive interference whilst using a car charger, a looping FC of Bluetooth Share, not enough vibration, it randomly reboots, black dots under the screen, no connection on WLAN, not enough storage, dead pixels, grainy photos, LED flash doesn't work, wonky haptic feedback, antenna gate issue, slight lift on screen, brightness gets broke, unresponsive power button, slow auto focus, creaking on bottom right of the device, most free media from the play store only available in the US, purple glaze effect on the camera, wireless charging problems, the onscreen soft key, poor WiFi signal, gap between bezel and the side of the phone, it won't drive your car for you and it won't grow legs and kick your enemies.
I'm surprised I haven't seen a complaint saying that the box it comes in is 1mm too thick.
And yet the majority of people think it's the best phone ever.
Just make up your freaking mind!!!!!

I must disagree.
The box is way too thin. It creases way too easy and under a lunar eclipse you can really notice it.
Love the phone. My only complaint is that the vibrate thingy is useless!

Well if the box was 1inch thinner it would fit better in my drawer so damn them for not checking that before releasing the phone.

Mine has 'niggles' but I don't care, I'm picky but I'm not THAT picky!
The vibration works well, my alarm went off in my pocket when I was driving, gave me a boner so it's clearly strong enough! lol
People seem to be vocal with problems. I've always received an item, decided if it lives up to my expectations and returned it if it doesn't, without moaning on the forums. If it's a software issue, like most of my niggles I'm going to just deal with them until the fix comes, since this is a Nexus device after all, we're in good shape for updates!
Products have issues, welcome to the realm of early adoption.

Yep I agree. As much as everyone wants the perfect device you can't have cutting edge tech the day it comes out AND have a perfect device.
Under testing there is simply not enough retail devices made at this point to mass test under mass production conditions for long enough to find faults.
Even apple and Samsung and Sony etc etc all release devices be it phones TVs laptops hard drives or a desk fan all will be released before kinks are worked out
This is not deliberate, its just that issues which come up have not been found yet.
Check any identical devices made even 4months apart and you will no doubt find that there are different revisions of board used in them or chip.
Plastic production can be different and parts can be sourced else where .
So unless a recall is required for a dangerous fault, issues will be resolved in future devices.
This is not lg this is anything with a plug that this relates to.
I do agree however many cosmetic flaws should never pass quality control as they are easy enough to see and most of these QC checks are done with cameras now not humans so any discrepancy should be picked up easily to be referred to a human to double check.

Yeah, F this forum! Let's move to 4chan/nexus4!
Mine has a slightly buzzing earpiece and the screen seems a little darker on one side although this is probably just my eyes lol.
I have none of the other issues, and have to say that it is a MUCH better phone than the SGS 3 I had for six months.
I was constantly changing ROMS on the SGS3 and was never 100% happy.
This phone is built better, is louder, has a stronger vibrate, better screen, louder and clearer speaker, clearer in calls, much faster and is truly smooth and lag and skip free. The touchscreen is perfect.
Cannot make even one complaint about this phone that would put me off it.
I am enjoying my phone a ton!
My phone rattles but since I don't have Parkinsons I don't hear it.
I have the buzz but the only time I would be able to hear it is when I am on the phone and either me or the other person is talking to I can't hear it!
I don't take my phone to the bathroom so I haven't dropped it in the toilet yet.
Overall a great phone and totally worth the purchase price!

Htc One build quality

Hello,
Been following this thread for a couple months now, almost bought the xz, but seeing both took their sweet time to launch and one's finally available...
So just returned from a mall, seen it in 2 stores, live.
It looks really nice just as pictured by everybody in these forums. The screen looks amazing, very sharp, cannot compare to anything else. Sound thru loudspeakers best I heard in a phone.
However..
The built quality seemed to lack.. Alot.
The metal parts didn't seem to be aligned properly to the point where visually they were protruding out; the corners felt rugged, especially where the metal will stick out. There were minor gaps, albeit too visible on both models.
Now, surely I have heard about these possible issues. Wasn't too worried before as consider myself less picky about things in general. But after seeing the store model, I am a little worried. I know I get to bring it back if not happy my question is how the store demo version compares to the actual thing? Aren't the demo units supposed to be better, at least in build quality? One thing I am sure of, will carefully inspect it in store.
As an aside, all my phones past 10 years bought online: I wouldn't take the same chance with one whatever return policy.

I had a few issues with build quality on my first few handsets , rough edges etc and then on my last one (which didn't suffer from the capptive button problem) I decided to just take care of the rough edges myself and used a bit of 2000 wet and dry sand paper on the polished edges and white band, now have a perfect handset

Pixel issues are going to increase as pixel density has more than doubled over the last few years. No way around it. We also need to remember that it is in no way HTC fault and that every single phone manufacturer has similar failure rates.
From what a fair few people on here have said, the most recent builds are fixing these issues.
I myself have a model with very minor build quality issues but it's not enough to make me want to get a replacement or switch to another phone.
The phones so good that these minor issues can be overlooked, by me at least.

Same here. Very minor issues here too. The headphone input (and sim tray) looks to be deburred by hand (and a bad job at that, I got a scalpel to mine to clean it up)

Got my One today and it's perfect or very near..
Checked a little bit on the issues I seen or heard of before, mechanically it's almost perfect, alignment and all, no dead or stuck pixels, call quality seems alright, sound recording and playback.
The only issue if I may say so, on maximum volume there's a bit of distortion on loudspeakers.
I will get to play more with it this weekend, can hardly wait, but so far it seems like a nice replacement for my sgs2.

Yeah I'm usually not very anal about those kinds of things but I must admit that the headphone jack is pretty bad. Like mine is halfway on the aluminum casing almost. It's not in the center of the plastic between the aluminum at all like the power button. Is this normal?

It seems that it is an issue. I have the silver and its very minimal and isn't an issue for me. I've since ordered the black as a replacement (wanted black in the first place) and is much worse and not acceptable to me, and the top speaker grill has 3 scratches on it so I called sprint and they are processing an order to replace the black.

I think its a lack of quality control. Some are flush, some aren't. If it bothers you, you may want to see about exchanging it and be sure to point out that you believe it is a manufacturer's defect (this will be key in avoiding the Sprint restocking fee assuming you bought from Sprint). Another thing to consider is that if you intend to put a screen protector on the device, screen protectors only cover the glass and not the speaker grills. Therefore the "nick" you describe will be present even if you have a flush screen because the screen protector will create a non-flush edge (and the "nick" will be even larger if you apply it to your current device).
batch problem maybe, lack of quality control.
I have the opposite issue at the bottom. The screen appears to be sunken in ever so slightly on the sides, while the speaker is flush with the sides and its flush at the top. I can feel it somewhat, but this is my second unit after a dead pixel replacement so I'm probably going to roll with it because the replacement could have bigger issues.
Just picked mine up today. Also noticed the left side of the screen isn't completely flush. The right side is a little closer, but the left side is the worst.

Got my Black replacement yesterday. Very slight raised glass on the top left but it's so minimal I'm not going to complain. I guess 3rd ones a charm. Just sucked dealing with Sprints telesales dept for 2 weeks trying to get a acceptable device.
I'm upset they rushed this phone out without thoroughly looking over It better.. I got the unflush screen, the gap up top.. argued with a sprint rep today about the gap and he opened a new HTC and it had the same problem.. so another rep said the gap is for better antenna signal lol

My HTC one also has a raised screen on the entire top side but the bottom side is flush and everything else about the build quality is good. Eventually, it started bothering me and I ordered a replacement phone (wirefly.com and within my two weeks). The replacement phone had the same problem and it also had a huge gap between the aluminum and white plastic (which my original didn't have). So I ordered another replacement phone and this time the screen is raised on the left top side and lowered on the top right side meaning it's slanted in reference to the body of the phone. And there's a smaller gap between the aluminum and white plastic. I feel like this is going to be an endless cycle. What should I do?
I love the phone but this is bad quality control on HTC's side.

Right now, its pretty much luck of the draw as to if you can get a flush one or not. I guess it will also depend on how much patience you have as to how many times are you willing to do an exchange. Also, just realize that if you do finally get a unit with a flush screen, if you put a screen protector on it, it will only cover the glass and not the speaker grills. This means that the screen protector will then create an edge/lip at the top and bottom of the glass panel so again, it will not feel flush/smooth due to the screen protector.

I don't use a screen protector so that's not a problem. I just want a good phone. How is that I can get three phones that look completely different in build from the same company? That just seems so odd to me and looks bad on HTC's side. I feel like if this is going to be an endless cycle, I might make the switch to a different phone.

I also got frustrated with HTC quality control issues and some of the software choices they made in Sense 5 and so I am currently trying out a Galaxy S4 (haven't decided if I am going to keep it yet). Its not quite as snappy as the One but its acceptable to me as far as speed goes. No real quality control issues I've noticed and enjoying all the features Samsung has packed into this device. Both devices are great but each has its tradeoffs.

[Q] Camera problems

So I've received my HTC One and I am extremely pleased with it, there's just two questions that need clearing up for me.
The camera lens cover is a bit tilted. I have no idea if the actual sensor is also tilted or if it isolated to the glass. It seems off to me but does not seem to impact image quality, but should I get it replaced?
The camera also seems to make some sort of a click noise when I start it. Is this normal or is my One further defect?
Thanks!
U not the only one man..till now I still don't now is it a factory difect or what.
Sent from my HTC One using xda premium
That's not right. Get it replaced.
I always have this purplish hue surrounding the edges when in the camera app. It's specially noticeable when I'm taking pictures in low light.
Plus when I cover the lens with my hand, rather than going black. It becomes red :/

It's an already known issue, has to do with the sensor being extremely sensitive. No need to worry

Different nexus 5 hardware

Hi, due to several defects, many have chosen to send back the nexus 5 to receive a new one. infa89, a member of an Italian forum, had the following defects:
dancers and noisy buttons
SIM tray protruding
"cutting edge" display frame.
Comparing the old with the new phone, he noticed several differences, as you can see in the picture.
The new one has none of the above defects, it has
fixed buttons
larger microphone and speaker holes
more yellow display
green stuck pixels.
Someone else has noticed differences between his nexus and replaced one?
Mine has the small speaker holes, I bet that's why it buzzes through the whole phone.
Goddammit, now my phone feels second rate! :crying:
:laugh:
You know just yesterday I was looking at the speaker holes thinking they are probably too small to let the sound out easily.
RMA? Because of buzzy sound?
Edit...Yeah my buttons are fine too, and it's a 311
Oddly I have the tight fitting buttons, but the speaker/mic grille look to be the smaller ones.
I have a 311k btw

Mine has the small speaker holes, I bet that's why it buzzes through the whole phone.

my 32 gb white had the small holes, rattling buttons, microphone problems during recording, as well as backlight bleeding.
I immediately sent it back, but still waiting for the new.

By rattling buttons, you mean if you just shake the phone? Because mine rattle a little, but its not a problem. No backlight bleed or small holes though.

Hi,
On the box?:

EDIT: turn your head, I forgot to rotate the picture, sorry :laugh:
I have the larger speaker holes from the 16GB I purchased from Best Buy for Sprint but the original 32GB I ordered on the Play Store had the smaller holes. However, the volume on this new handset is much much worse.

I have no evidence to back this, but the couple I've seen from carriers all seem to be defect free while the ones from Google play seem to have issues. Esp the white ones. Just throwing out a random thought

I feel lucky now...got mine from play and it has the larger holes. I've been very pleased with everything...I did have a panic attack earlier when I dropped my phone and suddenly the vibrator stopped working...took my case off and heard a snap...I guess the cover came off or something? But now its working fine...
Only thing I noticed as far as defects is slight light bleeding on the edge of the screen in the corner. But I'm not anal enough to care...its only noticabke when the screen is black at night...

I got a black 16gb from rogers only it has is the rattling buttons wich is no big deal
310K or 311K only indicates the build date. HW Revisions is more important!

However it might be, that we are the "lucky" ones with small speaker holes and the "tightest loose" buttons maybe..?

OMG, i love this joke.
I'm not even kidding. It has been a running gag for months in my environment.
But back to the topic:
It wouldn't be surprised by updated "outer hardware" as the Nexus 4 also got updated with these "gummish-spike-thingies" on its back against slipping.
