Has anyone had this experience with their htc flyer? My flyer has an orange or redish colour running from top to bottom, nearly in the middle of the screen.
Advice welcome.
So nobody has experienced this with their flyers?
You should post a picture of it.

never seen that before..the only thing i could think of would be heat damage from leaving it in a hot car? but that's just a wild guess.
have you ever sat on the flyer, or left it out on the sun, or let somebody else play with it?
No, never done any of that. I look after it really well.
What do you think I need to do now?

The only strange thing I can remember was a prompt about more current to the device. This prompt appeared on three different occasions. I ignored the prompt because the device was not connected to any power source.
Other than that, there is nothing I can think of.
Well, I would call up HTC Support, if it's not your fault then they might fix it.
They fixed my bricked Flyer, which was my fault, so they're pretty nice.

For whatever reason, at random times, the media volume of my phone will just flat out mute. Once mute, I am unable to get it up, even through the sound settings, it'll just go back to mute. My only fix so far is to restart the phone, but it gets really annoying.
Has this happened to anyone else and does anybody know why causes it? I did the whole increase volume thing with QPST and made the volume Lv4. I seemed as if everything worked correctly, but I noticed absolutely no change in volume =_=;
First suggestion, get another phone. I had the same problem...

Seriously? You can't automatically discard a phone for a little bug...
It's more than likely from the spiderman game... You might have to uninstall the update in the game until they fix this bug..

I had it happen.. it happened a lot with my g2x... And anytime I ran cm7 I had to reboot... I'm guessing just a faulty media driver or something else as it doesn't happen often.
Try a to download a different media player (music only obviously) from the market
Or just reboot your phone and increase the media volume in the "settings"
Im sure if its a major bug the developer's will find a fix

My slider is perfect, it snaps and takes the right amount of effort to slide. I've had two of these phones because of a part number mixup, had the first one for an entire weekend and both are perfect, good slider, no dust, light leak or dead pixels.

Fix: Go into Sound settings and change the Sound profile to Normal (preferably before launching the game, but works after-the-fact too, if you forget). Mine defaulted to Vibrate, and it seems that this game is programmed to disable sound (only after the splash screen and intro video, go figure) if it detects this or the Silent profile. Now I can hear the game, for a change.

I bought this phone since very first day it came out. I have them lol and I actually like them cuz look cool I wouldnt call it design flaw
Inspecting the phone even more I found two dead pixels and the phone doesn't vibrate at all. It's faulty, I even downloaded the vibrator app on the market. Lol.

Anyone ever go into download mode and notice that their phone is making a 'clicking' noise. Really the only way to describe it. If the phone isn't in download mode, no clicking when connected to the USB cable.
Yeah, I've heard it before as well. I just imagine it's tiny little Samsung elves laboring away inside the phone, making $#!t happen.
It's the hard drive.

I get it too, but usually after installing a rom while rebooting.
Thats just the loudspeaker given short spurts of electricity. Or sparks inside your phone that makes the battery explode, not sure.
Its the LTE radio trying to connect to the towers so your phone can boot up to 10X faster than 3G boot times.
It's the BEATS hardware giving you a little somtin-somtin while you wait.
Its the awesomeness of this phone banging against the glass trying to get free

Has anyone noticed odd lines going diagonally through some icons and play store?

Could it be a driver issue?

If you would ac tally read the op you would've seen its not only icons. I also get it on pics and get bad artifacts in games. So if your looking to get sarcastic take it somewhere else.

Definitely not a driver issue... It's the GPU failing to render. I recommend exchanging it while you still can, even under severe stress mine does not do anything like that. I'm sad for you mate. What carrier you on?

Apparently you need a hug, there was nothing sarcastic about it. Im sitting here waiting for my phone to come in a couple weeks and seeing someone post graphics issues is unsettling. Of course i read the op, but the point was on the screenshot it is specific to the icons,whatever it is does not impact the background or other graphical parts on the screen which makes me think its not necessarily hardware.

Ty for the input. And my apologies if there was nothing sarcastic intended.
And I'm on AT&T.
Maybe that is the reason the AT&T store said it was a return of a preordered device and allowed me to buy it in store yesterday.

Hey guys,
I was wondering if anyone here could confirm a small, miniscule, almost-non-existent issue I found with this beautiful device. The left (Menu) touch button seems to be every-so-slightly faded compared to the right (Back) touch button. I haven't been able to find any pictures, or take a picture of mine (no camera around at the moment) to show what I mean. It's almost ridiculous that I am spending my time and energy in typing about this, but I would just like to know if this is normal and not something that is unique to mine. Besides, I think it gives it a bit of a personality (like Nemo and his fin).
Unique to yours.

I haven't noticed any issues in any case. I don't think I'd really care. I'm more inclined to worry about signs I've used it! (microscopic scratches that you can't see from anything but the most obscure of angles etc.)

I'm not actually endorsing that (though the front camera is actually not bad, so it could work with enough light), and I'm sure that's not what was meant by that post, but if you're gonna be a **** about it...

Well considering the problem is one button is slightly faded compared to the other and the lackluster FFC, I wouldn't assume that would produce anything useful. I said a picture with clarity.
It was an honest question. Obviously he can use the FFC but he is talking about something so slight it likely won't be captured with the FFC.

About that post anyway, I'm just hoping whoever (s)he is, is trying to make some sort of sarcastic statement about semantics, since the original post said "no camera around" as opposed to "no other camera around". I'm hoping that's what the post's intention was.

yes this is an issue and it also exists in my phone. i got my first S3 and it had lots of glue marks on the screen and the menu led was placed a bit above where it should be causing its light to come on the screen from inside of the scree. i got that set changed with a new one and now rest of the issues are gone but yes the menu led is a bit faded.
