Is the HTC one susceptible to damage from extreme vibration, specifically when the camera is on?
I know the optical image stabilization involves moving parts.
Could intense vibrations from something like a handlebar mount damage any of the components in the device?
Im also curious if magnetic fields can cause any damage. I've played with the idea of building a custom magnetic mounting case to replace velcro strips.

I had not had the tiny rattling sound that comes from the rolling wheels under the slider until today, after I dropped my X1 for the first time. But, after reading around and finding the source of the rattle - the tiny metal wheels under the front of the device - I was able to stop the noise. (not to mention being relieved it wasn't something more serious)
The noise is the light rattle coming mostly from the top end of the front as well as the bottom, louder at the top. It sounds almost like a loose screw and makes noise even just from turning the phone upside down, more high-pitched than the other possible noises. Testable by putting pressure on the front of the device, just to the left of the light sensor. if you push down and shake the noise disappears. The source is the little roller wheels under the slider.
This noise is not the optical joystick and not the camera rattle. The joystick rattle can be detected by holding your thumb with a slight bit of pressure over the optical joystick and gently shaking, if that noise goes away, this will not fix it. If the sound is more of a quiet clunking sound that only happens with a jolting shake, the source is the autofocus of the camera and will not be fixed by this.
How I stopped the noise:
I fixed this by cutting thin slices of clear tape, about 1 mm wide and 3 mm long and placed them flat on the metal of the keyboard, then closed the phone. I slid some paper in the gap to make a cushion and applied pressure to the front face to push the tape up onto the wheels more firmly. No more noise.
To make the fix invisible, use a second strip of tape to hold the edge of the tape that will remain so you can position it far enough inside it cannot be seen and then remove the second strip.
Credit to qpwoeipt's post that got me to this idea: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3171129&postcount=11. There are photos in that post that will illustrate the location of the wheels, plus you can see them if you look in the gap above the keyboard.
Cool tutorial there dude!!!
Seem a bit excessive though for something i never notice or get bothered by
Still cool idea!

The noise I was suddenly hearing was quite loud and happened with the slightest movement, very much like a small loose screw moving around. Since it happened only after dropping the phone (for the first and hopefully last time), I really wanted it eliminated.
Phone has water damage and LCD BAcklight is very dim. Phone works fine besides no backlight.
I going to switch out LCD, but I'm not sure that will solve problem.
Anyone one switch out the coil or IC to fix problem?
Anyone know the location of the Coil or IC that controls backlight?
Hi,
Rebuilding my z3+ I notice that there are pads from several of the ribbon circuits that connect to contacts in the inner edge of the frame. I don't have pictures, but it looks as if these connect to the aluminium strips that form the outer sides of the frame. So my question is if anyone know their function. I notice that the non-original frames are missing some of the contacts.
Do the frame sides form part of the system of antennas? If so, which? GSM/Wifi/GPS?
Could there be some other function?
B.R.
The problem I have is that when I touch the phone or touch my fingers on the part between the camera and the fingerprint sensor, there is a sound as if something is loose inside the device, this sound increases if you touch it several times. upper part that is above the camera. Also, however, when placing it on flat surfaces such as desks, placing it as commonly placed any device also produces this sound (As if it had something loose inside). GOOGLE TRANSALATE
My doubt is that if it is something NORMAL the problem that I have is that the mobile on touches having had or to do it with the fingers in the part between the chamber and the sensor of fingerprint, produces a sound to itself as if something was sluggish inside the device, this sound increases if touches several times the part top that this one arrives of the chamber. Also on having placed it on flat surfaces as offices, placing it since any device is placed produces also this sound (As if it had something sluggish inside). THEWORLD TRANSLATE
Is it something new or did uou have this sound since the beginning ?
Solved, it was factory error they replaced it with a new sealed one.
So i replaced my display after an accident and with that my speaker are not working anymore. I did not remove the top speaker but the bottom one who has two gold contacts which connect underneath the logic board to it after its placed.
If i am not mistaken both speakers are seperately connected to the logic board (top one with contacts to the frame with nfc and then to the logic board) but i did not touch the top speaker so its even more confusing. I also did not remove the mesh on the front like in some videos, so i removed the display with letting the mesh in place. Everything else (even the audio Jack) is functioning.
Maybe you can help me solve the problem or giving me tips to identify the problem here? I did not find the bottom speaker online, but the metal frame (where everything is screwed in, WITH top speaker) and the frame with nfc.
Thank you for your helping.

I am facing different situation after screen replace..my wide camera and selfie camera not working..there is no option in camera to pass to wide camera..do you connect the middle frame with screws? Its need to stick to the board..i will happy if someone can help me with my problem
Well in your case you have to check the connection of the flex cables from your cameras. I did connect the middle frame with the screws, if not NFC wouldn't work.

I'm experiencing the exact same problem
Anyone found a solution?
Edit: screen the motherboard cover on tightly, don't lose any screws! Some of the audio circuitry and camera circuitry appear to need the motherboard cover.
