What do we think to this as a charging dock?

Looks pretty good mate, might get 2 of them (one for work). Im always a bit weary about third person docks due to not knowing what electronics is in them and how the management of power is handled... if you know what i mean?

Not seen any of the issues they've mentioned.....maybe I'm just not paying that much attention. Mind you, mine has a Vodafone ROM on it, not the vanilla HTC one.

Thinking about it, i have noticed a fair few but they are not game changers. As i mentioned before though, the update will be welcome.

just had a thought about the dock, do you really want it to click into the USB rather than using the pins on the back?

Think im gunna wait it out.

Depends on the price difference if I'm honest - blackberry have a similar dock for some of their handsets and I've not read of any issues using the USB port....

Well my One X is on it's way as of last night apparently. They are charging me £50, now to wait for my next bill to appear to see what kind of deal I have

i dont expect there to be issues, just going from experience with the desire and usb docks its quite a clunky mechanism for the purpose and it does tend to damage the case around the plug.

Got graphical corruption on my HTC One X


Will phone Vodafone in the morning.

[Biscuit]

permanent corruption?

[dave87]

Certain menus, started with the notification bar, then the loading bar on the web browser, and then when I was attempting to reply to a post on here, the keyboard animation and tool tip were corrupt.


Vodafone, to their credit, have arranged a swap out with a brand new handset.

Jeez this is worrying me, i havent had anything yet but i got mine through another website and that might become a bit of an issue if i have problems. Fingers crossed!

[dave87]

I could be unlucky, or it could be a software glitch. Thing that worried me was it seemed to be getting worse...

[Carlh]

I havent as yet had any graphical hitches with my HTC One X however also bought it from a third party website so fingers crossed I dont have the same issues as you dave.

Prior to the corruption on screen did you have any indication that the phone was about to go..?

[Lee H]

Do I order mine later today on O2 unlimited tariff or do I patiently wait 2 weeks for my Virgin contract to end and then order the one X.

decisions, decisions...

Well as I know what phone you currently have I would say upgrade now.... however it might be worth waiting till beginning of May for the S3

I would wait it out for a bit mate, there seems to be some pretty big teething issues with the handset at the moment so i would leave it a month or two.

[Biscuit]

I had a system update today, seems to have fixed all the software issues I was having.
I have noticed some creaking in the case though :-(

[Biscuit]

Battery life also seems to have significantly improved... woop woop
