    Anyone gone from an S6/S6 edge to an M9?

    I switched from an S6 Edge to HTC M9 because the Edge was freezing over night, with the CPU pegged and battery nearly out each time. Even after factory reset and disabling updates it would occur several nights a week. That was unacceptable, and T-Mobile had no solution so I switched. I didn't...

    How do I turn off auto-correct on the HTC One M9?

    I have the same question and issue. Say I want to text the sentence, "Arg, this is so frustrating". If I swype say "Arg" it changes it to "At". And I'm OK with that. But then if I go back and instead type individual letters to type 'A', 'r', 'g', then BEFORE I type a space, I look right at the...

    What happened to the HTC One M9 item in the Forums menu drop down list?

    I'm used to going to androidcentral.com and then selecting Forums and then HTC One M9. I no longer see it there and just see the other vendor phones. I can navigate in other ways to the forum, but wondering why it was removed from that. It as well has no button like the other vendors.

    Do people still recommend this device?

    "I was underwhelmed with the M9. I've had it since April, and it's been laggy, stuttering when opening apps or switching apps, almost as bad as a Samsung device. Battery life is easily the worst in any phone that I've had since the Nexus 4, especially standby time. I replaced it with a Sony...

    How can I get my G Sensor working?

    Re: G sensor not working Take a look at the post on page 2 of these threads, the one titled "Auto Rotate stopped working". There seems to be a solution to this issue in that post. http://forums.androidcentral.com/htc-one-m9/523876-auto-rotate-stopped-working.html

    Getting Frustrated with S6 Edge Poor Performance

    "My phone over the past few weeks has been getting stuck with the black screen and blinking light where a reset is required to regain functionality. Just this week alone it has been this way 3 times." Yep that's exactly what was happening to my edge, starting about a month after I purchased it...

    Need some input on why to get s6 edge (vs htc one m9)

    I loved the Galaxy S6 Edge when I had it and it was working. When looking at pictures I had taken, I could have sworn I was just looking through a pane of glass at the real thing. And even with video, it was unbelievably crisp. A still frame in video mode was better than most camera's still...

    HTC One M9 v. Galaxy S6

    Don't do it. I first had actually purchased the Galaxy S6 Edge 3 months ago (on a plan) and loved it...until it started freezing on me overnight, even after factory reset and disabling updates. The CPU would be stuck at 100%, the phone completely unresponsive until I did the...

    The OneM9 Camera does not suck...

    I completely agree with alienlandingpad. When I first purchased the M9 I did struggle with getting good photos at first, but then read on line the best settings and how to take advantage of its various features. Now I get mostly really good to stunningly good pictures. Here are some tips that...

    HTC One M9 is the best phone, why agrees?

    Re: this is the best phone "I agree and disagree...Respectfully...The M8 is louder and a bit more powerful. ...." Thanks for the info. I hadn't tried the M8. I actually went from HTC about four years back to Galaxy S2, to Galaxy S6 Edge for a month and then to the HTC M9. So indeed not...

    HTC One M9 is the best phone, why agrees?

    Re: this is the best phone For one thing, I LOVE the front facing speakers. Placing the phone say 10 inches in front of me I experience optimal stereo and separation of sound. Low, mid range and high frequencies all sound great using BoomSound with Dolby Audio, theatre mode even for music. But...

    HTC One M9 overheating issue FIXED via software update

    And same here. While mine has become a little warm during heavy usage, say during using google maps to navigate while driving, or heavy camera usage while experimenting with camera settings, it has not really overheated. So I'm curious now as to what the factor is then that made StarrLight7's...

    Music issue with SD Card

    Read through this thread, and am left wondering if your microSD card has a problem. I just copy and paste my music folders under itunes down into my USB mounted SD card using Windows explorer: Computer\HTC One M9\SD card\mobile\music. Works fine every time. So if when you do just that simple...

    How is the One M9 treating you?

    I did the same thing...returned my Galaxy S6 Edge and instead got an HTC One M9. I really love the M9. In a nutshell, the camera on the Edge almost blew the camera on the M9 away. And the actual curved edge of the Edge was nice looking and gave an aesthetic value. But other than that, I LOVE the...

    S6 Common issues /problems

    My S6 Edge kept freezing over night. Completely non-responsive. I'd have to do the multi-button power reset to get it back up. It would reveal that the CPU usage had been pegged at 100% until the point of reset. So the CPU was stuck in an infinite loop and eating up the batter life FAST. Even...

    "Cell Standby Issue" is it hardware?

    Just read most of this thread. I think this could have been what was plaguing my S6 Edge...before I returned it and switched to HTC M9. I'd wake up in the morning and see that my S6 Edge was frozen at a particular time (as seen on the edge night clock). The CPU would be frozen at a good percent...

    S6 Common issues /problems

    My Galaxy S6 Edge started freezing overnight about the second or third week that I owned it. I'd wake up and the edge clock display would be frozen at the time at which it froze. It was completely non-responsive. Next to the edge clock display it would show a good battery charge (say 90% for...
