Hi guys,
Finally my GN arrived yesterday and I noticed two problems.
Fisrat one is pink spot on camera(just lik on my old sgs2) but i can live with it.
Second problem is a fairly serious,,
I just watched the video with a rather dark background and black is not black ..
it is gray with a lot shades of gray BUT when i go outside everything looks just fine.
What is going on with this avesome screen?

For your screen issue, redirect yourself here,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1336187&page=38
Everybody is facing this. It's a common issue; I presume it to be normal.
Pink spot in Camera? Lol, the last time I read about that were in the S2's.
However, that doesn't sound good. I am 98% sure that we all have the same camera firmware and I'm not having the pink; my shots are perfectly clear. Loving the panoramic views.
On topic--Post your camera firmware as well!
Where is your Galaxy Note made in, this may hint a better conclusion,
Lift the battery of your phone, and Read what it says on the sticker affixed on the back of the phone.
Currently, Korea, China, and Vietnam are the current factories assembling this phone.
Let us know.
Made in China,,anyway how to know my firmware?
My shots are perfect too but only on white background is pink spot.
How to check cam FW?
you can try dialing
*#*#34971539#*#*
and picking the first option "Phone/CAM FW Ver Check"
DO NOT PICK ANY OTHER ITEMS in that hidden menu, or you will F*CK UP your phone.
Okay..tnx.
Check this photo i am sure is good..

I came from the GNex to the ONE and was wondering if any kernels are supporting the gamma/RGB color changes that were possible with that phone. Or is this something that is not possible due to the screens not being the same.
This isn't a kernel mod
Because the led that htc use is only green/red
How is it possible to have only 2 colors? You need all 3 for it to work correctly. Primary colors.
I like the screen now but miss being able to change it whenever I felt the need.

Unfortunately there is no choice to oversaturate the colors on the display. If that's what you need, consider getting a phone with AMOLED display.

Dude, whether or not you believe that there's no replacement for AMOLED (and I do agree with that statement) has no bearing on whether or not someone chooses to mess with screen color. I love the screen of my HTC One however, I wouldn't mind tweaking it a little to match my custom colors that I've implemented on my N4. Just saying...

Well if you read what I wrote, you'd see I HAD an amoled display. I don't now which is why I asked the question if this was possible on the ONE. If a kernel dev adds it in their kernel, then there will be a choice. And with Android, there is always a choice.
Thanks for the replies guys. I'll ask the kernel devs if they have plans to try it out.

I hope a kernel comes out for this. One thing I noticed is that my screen is a tad too warm. That's all I want to change. Make it a bit cooler to get a more neutral color temperature. Wouldn't want to touch. Saturation though. Love the colors for this screen.

We need HTC to release the kernel sources first.

I know I am to be taken with a grain of salt, I am a corporate store technician and talked to our HTC rep today. She is saying that Sprint decided to skip 4.2.2 and go right to 4.3 with its upgrade to the HTC One. I also got to look at the red version today as well and I am going to see about trading my black one for the red. She did not give any timeframe of when the 4.3 update will come out.

They only had a mockup for me to look at so unfortunately not, but the red is like an ironman red it looks really good. I will have the actual units tomorrow in inventory we will be putting one under glass to show the color so I will play more with it then and see what the finished product looks like.

In certain conditions, some reds look orange. Look at the top of the photo of the Red One. It's bright orange.

The bottom one looks closer to the red One than the top pic. No prob man :beer:

I think that's just overexposure. It may also be a combination of white balance and overexposure. It is common with any type of digital camera to have uncommon colors. One major reason is because of the digital white balance correction.
Sent from my HTCONE using xda premium
I don't know what you guys are say'n..That Phone is clearly pink....
The first picture is inaccurate. The second one is right.
If the problem is overexposure, then that means the tap to focus doesn't work very well. I always tap on my subject, yet I have several pictures where the reds look orange. I shouldn't have to mess around other than having to tap on my subject to get the right exposure etc.
EDIT: Whatever, it's OK.
The red One still looks sick, especially with the black accents.
I was just messing around man..The phone looks hot..But unless Sprint and HTC do something about the radio it's just another one..Thanks for the pics though.
That is because of the way the digital light meter reads the scene. Again, this is an issue that plagues even professional cameras both film and digital. This issue often crops up in difficult lighting situations with a lot of contrast. Hope this helps explain a little. Also the red one looks sweet!

If Sprint releases the Red HTC One with 4.2.2, we would already have it on ours. There's nothing different in those internals than what's on ours. They can't control the update to the device based on color. It will release with 4.1.2.
Hi guys
A couple of weeks ago I noticed a light leak in the bottom right corner of my HTC One. I'm sure it's leaking from near the Home button key. It seems as if the adhesive has come of or something, because it didn't happen since the beginning. It's visible only when the capacitive keys light up and the background in dark. The leak sprays on the screen for almost an inch!
I'm wondering how serious is this problem? What should I do?
I've attached a couple of pictures, they're not the best ones but thats what I could do with an iPhone 4.

I decided it doesn't bother me that much and soft key light comes in handy especially at night ; I am only worried that the speaker moved a little bit away from the screen, curious how it'll perform in time..

For what it's worth, I came across an app - Soft Buttons Light that permanently enables or disables the soft key lights; It did the trick for me. The best part is, it doesn't require root.

Why dont you try skinned stock ROMs.. Such as Viper.. It gives the user an option to alter the light of the soft keys

Yeah, that's what I ended up doing. Just installed a rooted stock ROM and a different app (Capacitive Buttons) to disable my button lights. Works just fine now.
The reason I would've preferred an app that doesn't require root is that I enjoy receiving OTA updates, so initially I didn't want to root. But all is well now, so whatever

I was just about to post a new thread, but saw this one.
Anyway, I also have this light leakage issue. It's coming from the bottom right corner of the screen where the screen meets the speaker cover. Kinda difficult to describe, but the fact that I spotted it and am now aware of it bugs me.
I'm way past my 14 days, so the only option is probably to send it to HTC.

You can do that. Just make sure the replacement you get doesn't have any other major flaw like the camera purple tint

If your camera is fine, I would suggest that you don't send in your phone for repairs. You can either learn to live with it or disable them completely. Ending up with a bad camera or getting stuck in a repair circle is worse!

Screen bleed issues
Having read some of the comments and issues with the M7 HTC One, please make use of these suggestions, if you
have a problem like i have,
1. The bleed issues and severity of these issues is 'handset specific' BUT is know by HTC and most retailers in the UK
(Carphone Warehouse, Phones 4U and all the UK carriers, ie, EE shops, etc).
2. I had this issue & can be resolved (in some or all instances by flashing a halo, or light Rom) This however is not ideal
for several reasons and obviously is not a fix as it invalidates your warranty if rooted and returned to the manufacturer or
retailer.
TAKE ACTION.
1. Return your handset and ask for a replacement, yes, they nearly all have some problems but after 30 mins of sifting through
a dozen or so handsets i found one that was "slightly better" than my first handset but not ideal.
2. Buy a Samsung, Sony or any other device if this matter is not resolved at, point of sale...
It's not the best BUT you do have rights and a choice, great handset, but not for everyone !!!!

Well, some sort of workaround... Not so much a fix.
There's an app called ScreenAdjuster from the play store which allows you to adjust colors a bit, turn blue up a bit until you like the result (to about 6 or 7 I believe).
so it is a software problem not a hardware problem and there is hope for future fix by sony?

Seems to be a software issue, Mine turn yellow after the first update. Screen adjuster is a workaround in the mean time. My nexus had the same issue. Its more of a colour temperature thing. Most people seem to like a cooler look to their screen.

I have this problem also. I call to sony center they already confirm is a hardware issue and I requested to change, by monday they will change for me. My opinion you better change a new device from them because the yellow hue really make you feel angry that you pay so much and you still getting this problem.
Even I had talk with customer center dey admitted it as hardware issue and guaranteed me replaced phone won't.have it.but dey stated after I get changed phone.I.wnt be able to doa it in case of.prob is.it.true?
