HTC 10 User Thread

I have had every single htc flagship since the ppc-6700 apache.  The only htc I had legitimate issues with was the htc touch pro, I probably had that device replaced 5 or 6 times due to having screen issues.  But other than the touch pro, every other htc device was perfect as far as build quality and reliability.

I've been a fan of HTC since the Apache days and yes their phone quality has always been superb, however, something is going on with the HTC10 that made the software go into bootloader before the motherboard went bad (according to the techs) .

I'll add to HTCs build quality. Its a great builder and designer of phones. Their Sense interface is hands down the best. Their only downside is that they always seem to bring up the rear in the rf department, and for me that's the deal breaker. If HTC can get it together and build a streak of strong rf performing phones, then I would buy another HTC.

In the past yes but the 10 performs exceptionally well based on my experience.

I agree, my brother has the HTC 10, and so far when comparing SCP it is within a dB or two of my dad's G4 and my G5.

Is it reproducible?

Anyone know why Open World cannot be added to the HTC 10? I can add it to all of the other devices on my Sprint account. The Sprint reps I've talked to have no idea why it can't be done, but can only tell me that it cannot be done.

I have it on mine.

I dropped my phone on a sidewalk, with a case on it, and now the screen does weird things. I don't even know how to explain it, except that anywhere where there's white text there is a band that goes up and down the whole phone. FML

Does HTC still have their free replacement in place? I think it was called uh oh protection or something similar.

I think only if you bought it direct from HTC. But it should have a warranty regardless...

HTC replaced my sister's m8 under uh oh protection and I purchased it from Sprint on easy pay.

Well I'll find out soon! Gonna go online later and look into it.

 

How does that work? Do you have to send the broken one in? Or do they send the replacement first?

They placed a hold on my credit card and sent the new one then I sent the old one back in the same box

The 8 and 9 were covered no matter what. The 10 only comes with Uh Oh if you buy it from HTC. At least that was the way the website appeared to explain it when my brother got his a couple months ago.

HTC said I have to go through Sprint. I can't believe they don't have a warranty that's not Uh oh Protection. 5 years ago when I had the EVO Shift, I had a problem with my screen, and I sent it in and they repaired it. I don't think I paid anything.

How would this qualify as a warranty repair/replacement if it was caused by you dropping the phone?

It should be covered under Uh Oh protection.  That's one of the devices main selling points.  Although I believe Uh Oh protection is only eligible for users that purchased it on HTC.com.

When I picked up my 10 the first day we could get it, Sprint said it's covered by Uh Oh when I asked. Problem is, it was a store rep that said it and we all know how well that always works out????

Yes, I am aware of that but he said "But it should have a warranty regardless..." which would imply to me that he feels it should get replaced even if its not covered under Uh Oh Protection, hence my question.

The 8 and 9 were covered by Uh Oh, even when sold by other retailers. The 10 is only covered when sold directly by HTC.

Looks like there is a new update available. 1.80.651.6 (332.28MB) Security update by Google. Guess I will be the guinea pig.

is this for the unlocked version?

    • Definite usage quirks in hunting down these sites with a rainbow sim in a s24 ultra. Fell into a hole yesterday so sent off to T-Mobile purgatory. Try my various techniques. No Dish. Get within binocular range of former Sprint colocation and can see Dish equipment. Try to manually set network and everybody but no Dish is listed.  Airplane mode, restart, turn on and off sim, still no Dish. Pull upto 200ft from site straight on with antenna.  Still no Dish. Get to manual network hunting again on phone, power off phone for two minutes. Finally see Dish in manual network selection and choose it. Great signal as expected. I still think the 15 minute rule might work but lack patience. (With Sprint years ago, while roaming on AT&T, the phone would check for Sprint about every fifteen minutes. So at highway speed you could get to about the third Sprint site before roaming would end). Using both cellmapper and signalcheck.net maps to hunt down these sites. Cellmapper response is almost immediate these days (was taking weeks many months ago).  Their idea of where a site can be is often many miles apart. Of course not the same dataset. Also different ideas as how to label a site, but sector details can match with enough data (mimo makes this hard with its many sectors). Dish was using county spacing in a flat suburban area, but is now denser in a hilly richer suburban area.  Likely density of customers makes no difference as a poorer urban area with likely more Dish customers still has country spacing of sites.
    • Mike if you need more Dish data, I have been hunting down sites in western Columbus.  So far just n70 and n71 reporting although I CA all three.
    • Good catch! I meant 115932/119932. Edited my original post I've noticed the same thing lately and have just assumed that they're skipping it now because they're finally able to deploy mmWave small cells.
