Ok, so me and another guy did some tests with the onex+ touch screen and found out why so many of us have issues with scrolling, we need as many people as possible to report the issue to HTC so we can get a hotfix, i dont think HTC realize at the moment, this is what to do, type in on th phone keypad *#*#3424#*#*. choose more, then choose the screen drawing option, dont draw, just touch it with your finger and see if there is a white dot, if there isnt then touch another part of the screen and then see if the previous touch shows up, if so you have the same software issue as many of us, its quite possible that its a major hardware flaw and cant be rectified in which case HTC will have to do mass repairs or recall, we are not going to stand for this at a price of £500, if you have this issue please report on HTC website, either email or chat or phone call, it needs to be done or we will have scrolling issues time and time again on each update.
What touch screen issue are you talking about? I've not heard anything about it from anyone on here. I think mine is fine. Or maybe I haven't noticed it yet.

Me and another guy discovered it, trying to sort out our scrolling problems, as of now theres an issue. 4 people have the exact same issue so far and i bet theres more.Test your screen and you will no for sure. Its causing random clicks and rubberbanding when scrolling, its not all the time and probably wouldnt notice it unless your a heavy user(always on your phone)
you have the same software issue as many of us, its quite possible that its a major hardware flaw

Yup, I noticed it too. It's gone now, since I switched over to CM10. It makes no sense! (See what I did there? )
I think I'm that other guy OP was talking about. I have this scrolling issue where stuff on screen are being selected or clicked on accidentally instead of scrolling though them - but never had this problem before I updated to the most recent firmware, so I'm pretty sure this is a software thing.
Best we could do right now is report to HTC.

Oh, so switching to a custom rom solves it. Must learn about those stuff then.
Had very similar problem on the sensation. Ended up being a bad ground. It was easy to fix because you could take the cover off. Small piece of aluminum foil or solder fixed it like new. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=17072026#post17072026
Also i assume you guys are talking about the international version..? Anyone with US ATT version experience this issue yet?

It would be nice to know if the problem shows its ugly head on the lte/4g versions, its def got to be reported, if its hardware they will have to recall or fix them, and they cant turn away people who are rooted or have custom roms if it hardware. Hi sharpshooterr, yes op is you, i couldnt remember your name untill i seen it lol. Same test on the onex with android 4.1.1 with sense 4+ shows the screen is perfect, theres not even any lag when drawing either. Things like this shouldnt be getting through quality control on high end flagship devices, really shows HTC is going down hill fast.
As of now i think your testing might be a little flawed, you are using the wrong test. This is a line draw test, not a touch test. Its liable to act the same for everyone when just touching. How does it draw for you? Draws fine for me. the thing about touching then touching again and both dots show is not any sort of test IMO because again this is a LINE DRAW test. Maybe download some of the touch and multitouch tests from the market and try those.
Dont get me wrong, if there is something wrong then it needs to be addressed. I applaud you for trying to bring it public. You should look into some other tests though. HTC will not pay any attention to this issue if its brought to them like this. Get some more info, more tests, different tests.. The more the merrier
With the information i've read here it does sound software related though.. custom roms can fix it and firmware updates can break it. Doesn't sound hardware to me.

Ok, ive tested the same drawing test screen on the onex, doesnt happen, soon as you touch the screen it registers under your finger, the screen has to register the first touch in that same spot your finger is on no matter what your doing, this is why its clicking in other places and rubber banding when your scrolling, its registering to late, and the line drawing lags like f---k. When your drawing your keeping your finger on it so its going to register eventually in the place you want it, its no good when your scrolling. Ive reproduced the same in gesture search, and again on the onex it doesnt do it in gesture search. Keep in mind there both running android 4.1.1 with 4+ sense, the only screen difference is the glass. If what your saying is true then the onex should be the same way so i know its not down to he test app along with the other tests ive done. Eitherway theres def a problem with scrolling.Your probably right about HTC not doing anything.EDIT: Ive decided to refund or sell it and carry on using the onex, it just seems faster, battery last longer.

No... But thinking on it I may be a bad test subject since my phone is now rooted, bl unlocked, and running an insertcoin rom. I've had the phone for about a week.

With the exception of insert coin my phone is the same. I do not have this problem. Something is wrong with the rom, your kernel or your phone if you are having touch screen issues.
I am unlocked, running elegancia, rooted. I do not have TWRP flashed as there are issues charging when the battery dies. Even when i did I never had touch screen issues.
Multi touch is useless also, only 2 fingers register, on a brandnew high end device and it only supports 2 finger multitouch, oh yes, i have a touch screen app that actually registers a soon as you touch the screen, but its only one app, all others i tested do as i described so i really do not know what to think, its def not hardware, its down to the software, we should get 4.2.1 soon and hopefully it will be gone, as the op said, i dont think HTC will do anything, especially now i found an app that makes the touch work as it should. So, basically, dont worry to much, its not the hardware. Ive boxed my onex+ back up and im using the onex untill new OS, i might even flash stock nexus 4 OS on the onex.

To get the device to register more than 2 fingers go into settings -Display, gestures & buttons - turn off under gestures - HTC gestures (uncheck) this will give you up to 10 multitouch points.

I think what he said is absurd, I didn't disable HTC gestures and enabled "show touches" under developer options and the screen picks up my 10 fingers.

wow absurd huh? I can confirm that it is NOT absurd and works the way he posted it... even if you hit show touches in development, and leave htc gestures checked, none of the multitouch testing apps pick up more than 2 touches... even though you can see more, they dont register as touches in apps and games.. So... in order to have the full 10 point multitouch, no matter how absurd you think it is, HTC gestures must be unchecked.. Google it

You misunderstand, I'm saying that it's absurd that boe323's saying the device can only support up to two touches and multi-touch is useless. Since you yourself said it will register up to 10 touches with the correct setting then it IS absurd that he claims it can only pick up two. Even the HTC gesture settings clearly says 3 finger-touches so that in itself made his statement of only two-touch support absurd.
It seems that you think I'm disagreeing with ihavoc, you should improve your reading comprehension.
Since I updated to Jelly Bean, my HTC One X got crazy with the display. The screen image would get corrupted, but now the screen won't even turn on sometime. I know my phone still works because I can feel the vibrations on it, and when I call it I hear the ringtone.
My phone unrooted, but unlocked bootloader.
Any idea how to fix it ? Million thanks
Is your phone the one x plus or just the one x. This is the one x plus forum
The same problem

I think he meant One X, because I have the same problem with screen on my own as it showed on the screenshot attached
So, sometimes it get corrupted or even don't turn on. Reboot helps only for some time (minutes, hours).
Did someone encounter and solve the problem? I didn't try to make hard reset because I'm not sure if it's just software issue and not a hardware. Thanks for helping in advance! :fingers-crossed:
P.S. Please, move this thread to HTC One X subforum
Since I pushed a new RUU onto my phone, the bootup logo has changed from "HTC One X+" to just "HTC One." This may seem like a silly, and vane, concern, but I'm thinking about when I resell this phone and next user may be misled.
Has anybody encountered and addressed this issue? Thanks in advance.

Its the same for anyone no worries. It will show HTC One with a TM and the One will expand and the HTC words will be smaller. It's normal! :fingers-crossed:

Thanks! I hope someone will help to restore it at some point in the future.
well i just traded my galaxy s4 for the htc one due to the recent update making the gs4 bootloader locked.... so far i like the htc one alot build quality much much better, only problem is the volume button has notable wear, so i was just curious if i can just replace the button....
It's a sealed body,so I wouldn't tamper with it personally.did you get a refurbished phone? Otherwise I would bring it back.it can be done,but i would not recommend it.

Hi! I personally used a tiny screw driver that hardly, but did fit between the button and housing and just popped it out. The volume rocker itself is quite flexible, but if it's already broken (I assume) that doesn't really matter if you broke it more does it? You cannot really make any damage to your device or the back cover. Pop the button out from the back cover side and not the screen. Then you just put the new one in. Just be careful when put it in as I had to bend it a wee bit to be able to make its way. Unfortunately mine has a gap between the button and housing but I'm not bothered. Other users also commented the volume rocker can only be replaced perfectly to fit in if you disassembled the phone. Buttons are working and that's what matters...
HTC One M8 Volume Rocker Button Replacement
Hey guys,
I am new to message boards, so I hope I am posting my question correctly.
I dropped my HTC One M8 quite hard and the volume button flew out and was instantly lost. After reading the posts in this thread, one user mentioned that a replacement button was purchased off eBay; however, I've searched in vain and haven't found anything for the M8 (Lots for the M7 however).
Does anyone have any suggestions where I could look to find one? I think all I need to do is pop a new one in and I should be good to go.
Thanks!!

That is because this is the M7 forum, you might try the AT&T One M8 forum.
