T-Mobile HTC One S - Ask me anything

I don't believe there is.

Ok I have kind of an odd question. Can you trim down a regular size sim card to work in a htc one s? I sometimes like to swap my sim card out to use in older phones I have. I want to have the option to use my sim on more than 1 phone.. Thanks for any info ...........

For some reason I can't get this phone to my pc via the provided usb cable. I got the latest HTC Sync program. Updated the usb drivers on my laptop. I open up HTC Sync and it says "No Device Detected" Anyone else with this problem?

"No Device Detected" Anyone else with this problem?

Maybe you need to mount the storage on the phone via USB? Pull down the notification on the phone and follow the instructions. Just a guess, never used the software.

On my old Vibrant with Froyo thats what it did. Now there is nothing showing up in the notification bar. Funny thing is the phone does charge via usb.

the provided usb cable is really skinny and therefor your computer may not be able to send enough current to your phone so they can talk to each other... electronics.

I'm actually using my old motorola defy usb cable to charge me phone. Charges much quicker (just wish I didnt have a batter drain issue).

Do you have this problem too, or is it rare.

"My problem is vibration, as if there is a wire vibrating at high frequency during certain words."

Really? I think this person's ear is overly sensitive, so your mileage will vary. Go give the demo a shot at your local T-Mobile to see how it works with your ear.

Have you looked into WidgetLocker? It's a great lock screen replacement app. No root required. I used it on my Incredible.

I believe it had an option to have no lock screen. Don't know if that's compatible with the face unlock feature, buy might be worth researching

What about apps like these?

I haven't tried any yet on sense, since I don't mind the lock screen.

What email are you using? and are you using an intergrated email app? or the browser?
The phone should do the same thing with a hyperlink. If it doesnt.... its the app you are using, and they will need to fix it. (the browser should fix that)

I get no service at my residence, hence I have to connect via WiFi. Other than the WiFi dropping the calls all the time or not connecting at all in certain areas, the problem is this. When someone calls in, there is a terrible echo on they're end. I have to call them back, and after I do, the echo is gone. Why and can this be fixed?

The Slacker radio app is really buggy for me on this phone compared to my others. When it does open it will sit and say tuning forever or get stuck loading. And when it plays it takes longer breaks between songs or doesn't start and have to skip. Yesterday it played the same 2 songs back to back 6 times in a row before I had to skip to another. This happened right out of the box both before and after updating the app.

Almost certain it's an HTC software issue. The "workaround" is to use a headset. Caller's echo will stop the moment you plug it in.

BTW, on WiFi, do you also have the problem that incoming calls don't ring if the phone is in sleep mode? If you do, the workaround for that is to never let the phone sleep. Settings>Display>Sleep>Never turn off. And never let the screen go dark, so use the black background on your homescreen to save battery.

i turned on the talk back thing in the setting and i locked the screen and it doesnt let me unlock it !!!! i try pulling the ring or try pulling down the notification bar and NO it doesnt let me unlock or anything. I already restarted it and its the same thing !!!! What can i do ??????? help me please i have the htc one s
