    Home button/fingerprint scanner doesn't always work when phone locked

    I've had my U11 for a few weeks now, which has the fingerprint scanner set up, meaning I can unlock the phone by touching the home button/fingerprint sensor rather than have to wake up the phone then enter a PIN. However every once in a while the fp scanner stops working and I can't unlock the...

    HTC U11 home button -> black screen; 30 secs before phone wiped

    Apologies - I must have been in a flap after the phone crashed and coming across this new screen. I saw the number 30 and assumed it was a time countdown rather than number of attempts, and quickly entered my PIN without reading the whole message properly. Still, I've never seen this screen...

    HTC U11 home button -> black screen; 30 secs before phone wiped

    I've had my phone for two weeks now without any problems, but today I had been using a couple of apps (FB, Twitter) then pressed the Home button, at which point the screen went black and the phone would not respond to further button or screen presses. I ended up holding down the power button for...

    Disappointed with U11 speakers

    One thing I liked about the M8 was that you didn't need the volume turned up to get a decent sound out of it (thanks to front-facing speakers I guess). That GET looks like an interesting gadget. A bit pricey but a nice idea...

    Disappointed with U11 speakers

    Having come from an M8 with front facing stereo speakers, I'm a bit disappointed with the U11. The majority of the sound comes out of the lower speaker, so it's not really what I would call stereo. Can someone confirm that this is by design and not a fault with my phone?

    Strange background noise through USonic earphones?

    Got my U11 yesterday and so far loving it, but when listening to music through the earphones I can hear a low frequency "rumble" during quiet parts, or between tracks. It's loud enough to be distracting/annoying even without the volume turned up. It's definitely the USonic feature as the rumble...

    All apps lost permissions

    Hi, no it's been on Marshmallow for a number of months now. There was no factory reset or any software update either. I just restarted the phone then started getting all these permissions requests, still happening now if I launch an app that I haven't used in a while (since that restart)!

    All apps lost permissions

    After restarting my HTC One m8 earlier, all apps seem to have lost their permissions. I'm now being prompted to allow permissions left, right and centre! Any idea what might have happened? Android 6.0, Sense 7.0. The phone isn't rooted btw.
