My fingerprint/power button is slightly slanted. I was wondering if this is just me or not. The button is lifted slightly from one end.

There's a data ribbon on one side that holds it crooked like that. this has already been brought up and pretty much all of them are like that (as far as I know) so I wouldn't be concerned about it.

You've been a real relief today. Thank you.
This is the first thing I noticed after taking it out of the box. Couldn't believe they wanted it to be like this.

Crooked here as well. The first atrix I had seemed to be straight though. Kind of annoying. Also one side of the screen is slightly lower than the other.

Same for me. I had to return my first atrix because of battery issues and it had a straight one but the one I have now is tilted. I don't really stare at it so no big deal to me. At least my battery is performing now.

To add to the build quality issues, I went through 3 units at the store an all had some degree of dust under the screen. I took the one with the least. I took a look at my cousin's unit the other day and it also had a couple of specs under the screen.

Define performing. Mine is still garbage compared to what it should be. That's the same reason I returned the first one.

okay at least im not the only one. a friend of mine thought it was a protective piece of plastic that needed to be peeled off at first. it looked too thick to be something like that so i tested it first to see if it would read my finger which it did so i left it on..
odd that motorola would place it like that
it is an inset reader attached to the board with a ribbon cable, as part of a button. Some sit slightly different than others, it is common on everything that has this type of multifunction setup.

id say its less a build quality issue and more a design issue, since the glass isnt glued to the screen. I have myself seen 3-4 atrix, all except one had either major dust or at least 1-2 specks.
and on top a software bug that scared the hell out of me, seeing dead and stuck pixels only in the CAMCORDER mode.
I should consider myself lucky then, no dust and my fingerprint/power button is straight. However, it is a refurbished phone (perhaps one that was returned by one of you!) so they might have taken a bit more care in reassembly. Who knows... Maybe it is best to buy second hand sometimes, or I'm just plain lucky

Afternoon all,
So yeah I'm loving this phone greatly, but I've noticed something horrible for a phone so well made.
If anyway else owns one can you please check if your headset has a tiny gap ( Im really do mean tiny gap) between the front metal casing and
the cream looking plastic band around the phone. So were the headjack and on switch is . . . .
I noticed it last night and if I press the back and front together the gap closes.
After speaking to P4U they said no one else has rang in with such problem and they said they would exchange it wen more arrive in stock.
I ended up going in store were I discover they ave one there but is a pre ordered handset. The guy did open it up and checked both handsets.
They new one did also have a tiny gap but not as bad?
Bit shocked as I havent really used the phone alot as Im still using my S3 till I pay my contract off.
Anyone else got this?7
Cheers
Re: HTC One Owners check it out!
I have read somewhere 2 weeks ago it is a problem for some demo set. But seems it existing on retail phone now. Also I heard iphone5 has such problem but people think it acceptable.
So maybe other users can give their view.
And you would better to have a clear photo upload others can judge.

Re: HTC One Owners check it out!
I got mine today, have looked but not used the phone yet. On both the top and bottom, I can squeeze and a hairline gap will come together, but I don't think this is a problem really. It is negligible and it probably won't have any impact at all, the phone still seems premium and solid in the hand, and it is not like they advertise it as being waterproof or anything in which case this would be an issue.

This gap may be engineered to provide for thermal expansion differences between glass and aluminum
Definitely looks like a defect to me. Lint, dust, water etc could all get in there very easily and cause problems down the line. I'd get it replaced.

My mates htc one had zero gap all the way around.
Yeah I maybe abit paranoid on this matter. After seeing the other newly opened htc one and seeing that also had a little gap then I though maybe
its just the way its made. I will see hopefully thursday if more come into stock.
Re: HTC One Owners check it out!
If I'm looking at the same thing is u on top of the phone theres a very very small gap between the metal casing and plastic filler.
Can't see I'm bothered about a gap of 0.25mm though. I don't think I'd ever want a replacement.

I can definitely confirm such behavior in my One X, it expands a little from heat

Thread title is misleading: please change it.
Initial releases almost ALWAYS flesh out some build issues that quickly get fixed (even Apples, but not so often), so hopefully the title says it all. Since we already have seen a few issues with the initial builds, such as camera sensor quality, case gaps, dead pixels, etc., maybe this thread will be a good place to keep watch on the progress of the HTC One issues being remedied, as many of us wait for HTC to perfect the One before we make our order. We don't want to get stuck with hardware issues that may be quickly remedied after initial release.
So you early adopters can help the lurking masses who are anxiously waiting for the right time to buy. Once we have a lot of people reporting what is or isn't good, we can then get an idea of when issues are not really issues anymore.
Please list any hardware issues you have noticed (software too, but no so important since software can be fixed after purchase), and/or list any fixes to these issues or opinions on whether these have become non-issues, so that many of us who are waiting can check the problems off our lists. If there are ways of identifying which hardware versions have the problems vs. which ones do not, that would be great info for this thread as well so that we can check a device in the store or quickly return a device before committing to a purchase.
Hardware issues:
-- Camera sensor yielding image issues such as mis-focus and/or color banding in a small percentage of units, partly due to a HUGE number of image sensor being rejected and causing initial release delays.
-- Gaps is the seams of the case materials such that the unibody design doesn't seem so smooth and seamless.
-- Stuck display pixels or observable differences in displays on a small percentage of sold units, possibly due to HTC using more than a single screen manufacturer.
-- Is black anodize hard enough that resistance to scratching and chipping is on par with other brands out there?
-- Signal reception issues
Software/driver issues:
-- GPU tests not scoring as expected, in comparison to similar phones currently coming out.
-- Volume level adjustability more granular in the low volume end.
-- Capacitive buttons not responding when they should.
-- Battery Drain issues
-- Acceptable menu button solution / HTC logo touch digitizer mapped to become a button (not necessary, but would love to see developers make this happen!)

The sometimes-not responding capacitive buttons which are most likely a software issue.
Also:
-Fix the color temperature of the screen, it's too much on the cooler side
-Fix the audio hissing in some 1080p videos made in a quiet environment
-Sense drains too much battery in stand-by
-Improve 4G/LTE signal reception
-'msm_hsic_host' wake lock keeps the phone awake on stand-by and drains battery

If it is you touching it with your ear, then that is still a problem, as the proximity sensor should sense that the phone is close to your head and then shutdown the screen and touch sensor input so that touching the screen does nothing.
Maybe u could add links for each of the problems to related threads so users can get more info?

I just checked out the one at a nearby at&t store. I had such a hard time with the capacitve buttons that I am reconsidering the phone. Not once did I get them to work on my first touch. Extremely disappointed. Hoping it was that one model in that store. Will check out another store. Also looking at xperia zl as an alternative now. So disappointed though as it was pretty awesome looking and extremely light.

My biggest issue with the lack of menu button is that I've always used it to quickly pull up the address bar on my browser. If you gently scroll up or down on the browser it will pull it up, but it doesn't always work very well. That is what I would like to see a solution to, first and foremost.
The home and back buttons are not very sensitive and don't always react on my first attempt. Also the battery is draining extremely quick. I'm losing 12% per hour.

I don't quite remember where I read it... I've been stalking these forums for a while because I really want the phone... If you play around in your settings, somewhere there's an option to adjust/calibrate the sensitivity. Then, if you just very lightly touch the buttons, it will calibrate to that sensitivity and then fixed!

So I went and checked it out at another store and there was no problem with sensitivity. It had a weird problem where home would just bring up whatever screen you are on. Must be particular to that phone. Either way the sensitivity of the buttons was totally fine which was the main issue.
Also liked at xperia zl which is a fine phone in its own right but it just does not compare to the one. Although it does have one advantage which is that it is much easier to hack and get aosp and also get klp when it comes out.

I think this is the thread.
Solution to irresponsive back/home key
Case pitted
Got my 64bg on the 19th via mail direct order ATT. Top of aluminum case near power button front side chamfered edge had 2 pitted dents. Put back in box and immediately went to ATT store to return for new order replacement. I also noticed some rough finish in edges of aluminum casing where it meets plastic fill. Not at the level of my Iphone 5 fit and finish. Will see what replacement looks like in the next few days once received.
I'm glad I'm not the only one who feels the need to stab the hell out of the capacitive buttons when it comes time to go "home" or "back."
One of the few things that has agitated me about this phone is the effort required to press the back and home buttons. I actually began wondering if they were pressure-sensitive or something. After all, my Note 2 would often register inadvertent presses of the back and menu capacitive buttons because they were so sensitive. With the Nexus 4, the buttons are responsive, if not hypersensitive.
I have just set my calibration and the home /back buttons are immediately more sensitive.

Consensus is: yes, the hardware might support it, while software currently does not.
The sensor array likely completely covers a rectangular area but the coded area does not include the logo area. This might be hackable at the kernel layer.
I was planning on buying a unit but discovered it had the left-hand blur issue. It was a Xperia Z5 E6683 Rev 2 Black model.
I then tried another one from the same store, Xperia Z5 E6683 Rev 2 Gold and this DID NOT have the left-hand blur.
So I was thinking if this is just a coincidence or the problem is prevalent on a set of models.
Please share whether yours suffers from the problem or not as well as your phones model/color/rev#/week manufactured (there is another tray in sim card tray area, you can pull it out and there is all the device info). and I will make a tally of it.
Thank you!

I have two black E6653. Rev 4 from Taiwan and Rev 2 from Germany, both with no blur.
Excuse my ignorance; how do I discover the Rev #?
Green model, bought UK within a week of launch; no left hand side issue. Slight barrelling at far edges but that's normal, as far as I can see - it's certainly not excessive and generally makes no difference.

Dang, that's exactly what I would've decided to do. Meantime, do you think it could be caused by the lens cover itself? Some people in the past got much better shots after removing the back cover! If that's the case, maybe you could try to remove & re-align the back cover & camera module.
TW Rev4 (Green), no blur.
I don't think i have the blur?

The lens fisheyes at long focal lengths which causes it. Pretty normal behaviour for such a wide angle small lense, but typically it's the end of the world on here.
It's something normally corrected in software but isn't currently for some reason. I guess the current camera app only being a place holder has something to do with it.

It all looks normal to me. Also the fingerprint scanner will reflect light differently than the phone body because it's recessed into the body of the phone. Which in turn can make it look different. But yours looks normal. The bar at the bottom is supposed to be slightly diff than the body of the phone to give a two tone effect.

Yes...it does. It is not about functionality tho. I just do not know if this is how it is supposed to look. As I said I do not remember my first unit (built in Octomber) to have two different colors. Or at least it was more of the same shade. That is why this one seems weird to me.

It could very possibly be a different shade. But I am just saying that unless it is effecting the usage of the device, why does it matter. It's not like you could trade it in on the basis that the fingerprint scanner paint is a slightly different shade then your first model. You are hyper focused on a non issue. Are you worried that you got a refurbished one. Because you probably did. And that would definitely explain the difference in paint. But still, you have a fully functional device.

Well yea...I am kinda worried it was a refurbished device. But the thing is...I do not know if it was indeed refurbished or not. The guy at the shop where I requested a replacement opened the second one in front of my eyes. He cut the exterior seal and also the seal on the box. So...might it be refurbished? How can I tell?

Yeah it is hard to say. I would assume it's new, but maybe they have refurbs stocked from huawei on hand for trade outs. I don't really know how it works. I have gotten refurbished phones in the past though and have not experienced negative side effects. My HTC m7 which I had for the full 2 years was one of my favorite phones. My first model did crap out though in the first week and I had to mail it in to swap it and definitely got a refurbished one. But it still works fine to this day. I could see where they had glued it back together at the top though and it made me uneasy for the first few months.

This is a little bit off topic...but is it legal to sell refurbished phones without saying they are refurbished? The shop I bought it from claims it maight be a new phone. Idk if they collaborate with Huawei. Nexus devices are not so Popular in Romania. The 6P launched here on something arount 22nd of December (I bought it on 23rd...but the phone was manufactured in October).
Back on topic...do you think it looks normal? Still waiting for more replys from guys that own a Graphite Nexus 6P
