Wth - Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE

Why is it that sometimes when I'm on the phone and I try to do something on screen it pops off and on. Then when the screen comes on I'll touch it and it goes off I'll hit power to bring screen back up as soon as I touch it again it turns back off. Has this every happen to anyone else so friggin irritating

You're too close to the proximity sensor. Don't put your finger near it.

Where is that at?

Under the glass part of the phone in the top left corner. If you look at it in darkness it will kinda glow a feint red. Very hard to see under normal light as it blends into the black bezel.

Capacative buttons

On my og evo they would go off in bright lights. These stay on when screen on? Mine do. Normal?

Yes, this is rather annoying. I have seen people on here mention that theirs shut off of they hold a flashlight to the.light sensor, lol. Hopefully it cam be corrected with a software update, to adjust the sensitivity of.the light sensor.

Ya they stay on all the time unless It's super bright. Just tested a flashlight and it shut them off. I'm sure a future software update can fix it.

[Q] White tiny spot on bottom left of screen?

I know I have found another post on this but mine is a bit different. The tiny white spot disappears in high brightness and reappears in low. Should i get in for warranty or is it not worth it?
Try the LCD Screen Test *#0*# and confirm your results.
You may need to be in a fully darkened room and allow time for eyes to adjust.
Take a screen shot by home + power (maybe home a fraction of a second before), saved on sdcard screen capture folder.

Ok i tried inserting that code into the dialer but nothing happens. I'm on Cyanogenmod
Try app "Dead Pixel Test" or similar.

Lose screen

Anyone else notice that when tapping the top half the screen it feels like it's slight loose? I just activated it an hour ago :-\
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda premium
Shake it it does the same sound.. I thought it was the screen but I'm thinking it's the lens in the camera clicking around.
I just posted about this in another thread but now I'm curious are only some phones doing this or is it just the way the phone is. It doesn't seem like a big a deal but for a $600 phone I would expect it not to rattle when I touch it
No noise or rattling on my phone..

No noise here neither but I notice that bottom of the screen is collecting dust and if I look closed enough I can see a gap between the screen and the bezel I wonder if tmobile would replaced my unit

try re-activating it. Also try a factory reset, should solve your loose screen problem.

How do I get them to light up? I can't find anything in the settings
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app
They should automatically light up.

If you're in a bright room or outside and it's sunny they won't light up. If you're in a dark room or outside and it's dark they should light up. If they are not then I recommend you reset your phone, if it's not ok after reset then you should return the phone and try another one.
Ok I'll keep an eye on it thank you for the help

Cover your light sensor in the top left to test if the lights are working
Sent from my HTC One using Tapatalk 4 Beta
HTC is notorious for having poor performance of those lights on their phones. The Thunderbolt did the same thing, but since the sensor was on top of a black background, a good trick was to cover the sensor with electrical tape so the lights would stay on all the time.
They never seem to come on when they should and they always seem to be on when it's not needed. :silly:
