Not sure if this happened before I dropped it at Christmas or not... BUT...
My volume button is sticking out at the bottom. So the end that lowers the volume. It's all good up the top. Any ideas how I can, or where to get this, fixed. I'm in Sydney.
I opened the battery compartment to have a look, but there is a void sticker over one of the screws. So don't wanna go there unless its a guarantee fix.

i think you're totally missing the point. lol
anyway, can't you just push it in? give it a lil force until it snaps back into place. let me know what happens.
just noticed that I can increase volume on my DHD, but can't lower the volume. restarted it, thinking that it might be a sw bug, but it still doesn't work.
is this the issue you guys are experiencing?
hope it's easy to solve, since I'm in Brazil and bought the phone in Germany.
best regards

André, i really don't think so...
I'm getting same trouble, the button works fine, but the down side (to decrease volume) is a little out, if compared with up side that stays closer to the frame, looks like a "seesaw"... i believe you got a hardware issue...

I have same design issue. Upper part of button (volume up) is more inside the phone and volume down part sticks a bit out.
Still buttons work as they should.

I don't exactly have same issue but close.
My volume rockers work, it's just they both are sunken to bottom and haven't that normal touch i've seen on other DHDs
Kindda nasty. Has anybody went to HTC to fix that? I'd love to know before sending... or not
yeah it seemed so for mine too.. but then i dotn have much problem with mine ..
Had a similar problem for me within first 14 days of my contract, just sent it back and got a replacement under warranty with orange. Maybe HTC or your carrier can do the same thing.

Thanks a lot, this is what I was looking for. I may send it sometime during exams (where I'll miss it less )
Got kind of the same problem, my volume down button is not nearly as responsive as my volume up button.

OMG the bottom voice button is so weak..I am afraid of mine now...
my volume button popped out, doesn't sit flush and keep catching.
Added some glue to keep it held down, need to fit a replacement! Anyone know how to?

I have same issue with volume key, seems quite a common problem, surely covered by factory warranty?
Fixed my volume button
I had the exact same problem with my volume rocker, the bottom part was sticking out but the top seemed all right.
I've just fixed it with a bit of glue and by only removing the battery lid.
For what it's worth, here's how I did it.
If you remove the battery lid you can gently pry out the loose end of the volume rocker, just a little so you can see what's supposed to hold it back.
There's a piece of plastic glued to the bottom of the volume rocker that's come partly undone.
I just put a toothpick between the case and the volume button, so it's sticking out.
Then I used another toothpick to get some superglue on the loose piece of plastic.
After that I removed the first toothpick and pressed down on the volume button for a bit.
Now it's all tight and snug like it used to be.
Be careful with the glue so you don't glue the rocker to the case or something.
Hey thanks if my breaks its gonna be useful!
Had this problem, bottom volume became almost completely unresponsive and has really been bugging me for a few months now, so today I took the whole aluminium volume rocker off, slightly different experience to the post above.
Basically it's constructed pretty poorly, the aluminium rocker forms a latch at the top which holds onto the body of the device above where the button is seated.
The bottom of the rocker then has a plastic flap which is glued into a hole to hold the rocker on, this flap had more or less come off for me, seems very poorly manufactured, so I pulled up more and the whole button came off.
The actual volume buttons themselves are very small and these are seated in the housing of the device between this latch at the top and the plastic flap at the bottom. The rocker has two pieces which push down on the buttons to operate them.
Some dirt and grime had built up in there so I scraped that all off first with the head of a Phillips size 00 screwdriver.
I put a very small balled piece of paper on top of the volume down button and it's now working fine again, I just need to glue that flap back down so the rocker doesn't come loose. If the piece of paper is too big the volume rocker won't go down at all so you have to get the size right, relieved to have a working volume button again though.
search the forum, someone wrote how he fixed his button using a bit of superglue. it works like a charm. basically the volume rocker is held onto the phone with a rubber base. with time the rocker comes unglued from the rubber base. if you use something thin, like a toothpick or a small cutting knife you can insert a very small amount of glue between the 2 and glue them back together. just don't overdo it with the glue or you'll end up gluing the rocker to the body! i did it on mine and now it's as good as new
Got my One X this morning, has anyone elses power button got kind of a spongy feel to it? There's no click when I depress it, so it's hard to know if it's pressed in enough :-\
I got a "click" sound on my powetbutton. But my volumerocker seems a bit loose. When i shake my phone I can hear my volumerocker ratteling if i listen closely. :-/

My volume rocker is loose too... is this with everyone the case?
Power button has a click, but I get the feeling not for long anymore...
Same with the the volumerocker clicking when I shake the phone, but I have to really hold it up to my ear to hear it.
No issues with the power button here.

For me, This is a HTC Trademark, the PowerButton has always been 'soft' and 'spongey' on every HTC device I've owned, never gave it a moment's thought though.

Often when i turn my screen off, if i have pressed it a little to hard, the lockscreen imediately appears again.
I have the rattle of the volumerocker and it's loose too.
No issue with the button power.
But, i have called the customer service of HTC friday and it says me the rattle of the volumerocker is a defect who needs repair or remplacement.
I go Tuesday to the store for exchange my one x .
Anyone else ?
I have the exact opposite.
volume rocker is fine but my power button feels slightly loose. Still get a nice click when I use it but does rattle when I shake it.
think it's worth exchanging?
Hi
I just received HOX white made in Taiwan. The power button looks O.K.
But I have problem with volume button. Button for lowering the volume is very sensitive. Gentle touch is enough to lower volume. There is no click or something like that.
Volume up button works perfect (you can hear click etc.) Is there someone with the same problem?
It is very hard to hold this phone in hand without touching the volume buttons.
My volume rocker is loose and it moves side to side unlike my power button which feels sturdy. I'm not sure this is normal.
I'm just worried it may come off after some time.
Anyone else find that their volume rocker is loose?
Just want to know whether I should send it in for repair.

It's a cheap fix AFAIK, should be a few $ in your local phone shop. It's quite a common problem for our DHD, Thankfully I rooted before I broke my volume rocker (been living without one for 5 months now).
Yes, you're right. I've found a couple of repair items + kit on eBay for a few bucks:

By the way, i've also found this topic (where there is you, too): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=915895
It suggests you can fix the problem without changing any hardware parts:

I think that I need to put to work now
Phone feels great, but i recently noticed that the power button is not as tactile and raised as the volume rocker. I need to press it on the middle to work or else the edge kind of flattens out with the phone. Does anyone else have this problem?
Power button on HTC 10 not as tactile as volume rockers
The same exact thing is happening on my HTC 10. Whenever I click the power button. I do not hear a click but the phone reacts. I too have noticed that it is not as tactile as the volume rockers. I hope this is not a common fault in the manufacturing since I have only had the phone for one week.
It's normal, my power button is really clicky but still a little less so than the volume buttons. It does rock slightly as the actual button is in the middle whereas the volume buttons are perfectly stable. Mine is level with the volume buttons however.
I had to replace my HTC 10 due to the fact carphone warehouse gave me the wrong one originally for my click and collect order so my SIM card wouldn't work.
The first had a clicky power button that was easy to press and solid. The second one is spongy and harder to press while in a case but is very solid.
Both are acceptable for me at least.
I just accepted it because it isn't such a big "flaw", atleast it works
