Hi all!
My friend's friend gave me a free HTC Sensation XL x315e as I was looking for a free smartphone for my mom.
This phone was brand new, never been used, only the screen got cracked up during the delivery (my friend was just too lazy to fix it).
This HTC phone has been put aside for 2 yrs.
He told me to change the LCD and I will be good.
The phone is in superb condition and the battery and charger still work quite well.
However, the main problem is that when I turned on this phone, I saw these things...
I don't know much about phones, so please everyone tell me what kind of issue is this?
Thanks!
It is in the Bootloader and maybe the internal sd card.maybe broken

Hello
As you can tell I'm a noob so be gentle
My son dropped his sensation xl beats and cracked the screen and now he has a black bleed which I presume means the LCD is also stuffed. Thought I was fine as its insured but surprise surprise I called the ins company and told them what happened and they won't pay out as he is 15. No one mentioned the age when I insured it so that will teach me not to read the small print:crying:
When he first smashed the screen I ordered a digitiser on eBay as was going to change it myself after looking at tutorial but now I see the bleed I think it's a whole LCD job. What do you guys and gals think?
I've looked at screen repairs and its well over £100. The phones still under a year old and has been back to htc twice due to lock button and case issues and they still failed to complete it properly the first time but this obviously a user error so can't even go there.
Any suggestions please?
Ohh crayky!!! To be honest with u mate u basically said what lots of us would suggest u. It's Very nasty what the company said really, would be fuman mate. I think I personally would not bother as u could mess up more while ur trying to replace the LCD part too. If u got money to pay that much money to repair, u could easily save some more pennies and get a second hand on ebay as the praces of our XL getting cheaper when u wana buy them second hand!

Thanks for reply. The xl's are going for about £150 on eBay so would probably repair. Can you just confirm that if I can see a black bleed its more than just a digitiser/glass?
Does the phone powers up? I'm not technician myself but I think if it does that means black bleed is more then just a digitiser. By the way did they actually gone down to £150!!? That's really crazy cos I actually believe our lovely XL are worth more then that!! Good luck mate.

Have you checked your house content insurance to see if you are covered for accidental damage?

Yep just called them and awaiting a call back but have checked and I do have accidental cover with a £150 excess
Not having much luck but hey ho!
HTC say they cant give me a quote unitl they look at it but I am looking £100 + but it's looking like its worth it as I have over a year apparently to run on warranty. I thought it was 12 months but its 24 months warranty so if they replace the screen :crying: it bring it back under warranty:good:
well ongoing saga the home ins have a £150 excess and they will on repair with a non HTC repairer so this will invalidate the warranty so I will have to book it in to HTC

Hello
Ive recently bought an HTC Sensation XL with an broken screen.
I repaired the screen but when the first boot i saw that it isn't a dutch Phone.
Is there maybe an HTC ruu with dutch language in it?
Kind Regards
Hello,
My new HTC One, which arrived yesterday for me does not work.The phone will not turn on and after plugging in the charger does not light up the red LED.There is a chance for firing or just service?
Best regards
if you bought it under warranty ask for a replacement
Get a new one

I see on eBay u now can buy stock HTC one(m7) battery replacements. Have any of u done this yet. I would like to. I think my battery has lost about %15 of its life sence I bought my phone. I really don't want to buy a new one cause this phone is still fast even underclocked. I want anyone's thoughts on this.

Replacement can only be done by HTC ... because the phone can't be opened by yourself ...

Hello there,
I just got my HTC One XL from ebay and I have some questions.
1. Does HTC One XL have this problem too? HERE
2. How should I do the first charge? Should I use my new cellphone first and wait to the battery discharge in order to make a full charge of 7 hours?
Thank you!

you are in the wrong forum, here is the htc one M7 forum. your forum is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/one-x-att
but I already owned a one X so I can answer your 2 questions
1. Newer batch of htc one x doesn't suffer from the wifi issue. Anyway I think that the XL variant never suffered from that issue. If this happen to you, you can repair it by yourself easily (I did on mine), you have to remove the back casing of the phone, locate the wifi contacts on the PCB and very delicately pry boths contacts upward so they touch the antenna firmly when you put back the cover.
2. Its recommended you do a full charge (100%) once before you use the phone, however I never did it neither to my One X or my One M7 and never experienced battery issues.
