I've been using an MDA III for around a year now but i recently smashed the screen and i was forced to get a new one. I have now purchased a new one and the touchscreen doesnt work. I've had a look at it and i cant see anything at all wrong with the digitalizer. Therefore i'm wondering wether it could be a software issue.
If it was a software issue does any one have any idea on how i could go round repairing this.
Or how i could go around have a new touch screen fitted.
Get back to me if you have any information on this at all.
Thanks in advance,
Graham Dixon
ok so heres the thing. i got my second htc one x yesterday and it was absolutely fine . its HT24 btw. today the device started to flicker again, which was the cause the replaced the device in first place. i contacted htc directly. first of all i contacted htc uk, and asked them whether the screen flickering issue will be resolved by a software update. the surprise here is that the operator told me the issue was fixed in 1.28 OTA. well whats being said on the forums is that the issue was not resolved in both 1.28 and 1.29 updates. on another thread here, a person said that he contacted htc and they told him that an update (after 1.29) is due to come and must solve this screen problem. i just dont understand whats the real deal here is. a group in htc says that the problem is solved and any other problems are hardware and require a replacement, others say that it will be solved in an update soon. In both cases, htc operators say that htc knows about the issue. Well is this a kind of a joke or something? i have a 720$ phone that has screen issues, and every person at htc gives me a different answer. any help would be appreciated, as i personally have no idea what do.
you've referenced three different topics on the exact same issue, was there a need to start yet another one, whilst adding no new information?

We've all read a lot, discussed the issue. Most of us have been onto HTC and complained. Sit and wait like the rest of us.
The whole idea of the thread is to discuss the issue in ONE thread. Then people know where to look, not everyone starting their own.

first you need to clarify if we are talking about LCD backlight flicker or LCD edge ripple or random glitches
if you mean the glitches its sorted by 1.29, if you mean LCD edge ripple its a trait if the One X laminated screen
if you mean backlight flickering we discussed the issue with HTC and they said they figured it out and working on update after 1.29
further info about this relates to a main feature on Tegra3 which controls backlight dynamically to reduce poet consumption, the feature is called prism, if you pull a dmseg log from your device you will see tegra interacting with backlight all the time which might the root if the issue, ie software
one of our developers shaky is looking into it and also saying its software
Asus Transformer prime had the issue and it was sorted under much effort from Nvidia and Asus
and finally nevemind HTC hotline they can't answer what they don't have a script for, keep in mind they have to deal with hundred of devices
we have two flicker threads filled with info we dont need another
Alright thanks for your help hamdir, i meant the backlight flicker and i hope the problem is software as everybody is saying

Neither do all the people politely posting in the two existing threads that have been running on this for weeks. Your comments and situation are no different than anyone else’s thus making the start of a new thread pretty lazy on your part.
The last report (contained in the other two threads) is that on May 2 HTC said they identified the issue causing the graphics problems and are working on an update. That's all anyone here knows and if that changes it'll be posted in the other two threads.
In the absense of any other info your choices are the same as everyone elses.
1) Wait for the update and trust HTC gets it right.
2) Return of sell your phone and get something else.

It's a bug. I'm sure it'll get fixed in due course, no way in hell is that a hardware fault.

You really suggested people should trust HTC to get it right?!
Have you seen the ONE X section? It is one disaster after another. What HTC should do is order a global recall, develop another year and try again in 2013. I've seldomly seen a big company fail this hard. I honestly hope they go near bankrupt because of it, so they never pull off **** like this again.
I got my money back today after my 3rd one, even the shop said "don't trade again or buy another one, as they are all flawed."
I live in Sri Lanka, I have the same problem which is in this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VFvABvJXDc8 My htc one x was only 2 months old and i gave it to the shop where i bought it, they say it is a lcd display screen problem and we have to the change the touch screen of the phone. But i have some doubts and some say that this is a motherboard problem instead, i dont know what to do,which to get replaced, the display or the mother, can you guys here please explain me, which caused this problem and which will solve this problem on the video?????Thank you in advance
graphics artifacts were solved in firmware 1.29 and above
anything else is a broken or defected unit
please can you explain me in detail, whether that issue with the htc one x in that video, is that problem due to the motherboard or the lcd display screen? Please help me
What hamdir is suggesting is that none of the above. Just upgrade your phones firmware to 1.29 or newer and your problem should disappear. If not, then you can send it in for replacement.

Hi.
I Want to buy Htc One X and as always I read a lot about the phone I want to buy.
I found strange screen problem http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f2mcIM4i3Xk I had the same in my HTC Sensation.
Have anybody similar problem or is this a rare case ?
Thanks for your answer.
I'm pretty sure that's a rare case... No issue like this at all over here... And even if you face such an issue, htc will fix it for sure as it will be in warranty.
So go ahead and buy the hox! However if i were you, i would wait for the m7 though.
