    Having a small WiFi issue:

    There is a difference between public WiFi hotspots and private networks, my own WiFi at home still has its default ssid because it is anonymous, anyone within range (such as the neighbours) can see it, but they cannot associate it with me and they certainly cannot access it. Guess that makes me...

    Having a small WiFi issue:

    If you are up to date (4.2.2) then the WiFi toggle is built in. Just pull down the notification bar and hit the quick settings button in the very top right corner. From there you can toggle WiFi on and off with a single tap.

    Charging it with an iPhone 5 adapter.

    My One gets charged either with the adapter that came with my media link or with my old Galaxy S2 charger (longer cord and shaped usb plug, so I can plug in in the dark). Both work fine. A word of caution, there are a lot of cheap chargers available, they practically give them away on eBay, and...

    How can I change my Shipping Address in ShopAmerica (HTC One Store)?

    Call them, global contact numbers are listed on the support/contact page. I am sure they won't mind.

    Has anyone had trouble with re-establishing PHONE signal strength?

    I get the exact same thing when my phone is in my pocket while I am at work. What is your network/location? I am in the UK on EE (Orange) 3G and it seems to have started about 5-6 weeks ago. With the combination of the T-Mobile and Orange networks coverage should be excellent but my overall...

    "Other" storage taking up 15GB?!?

    Other is the os, app data, cache files, game data etc etc, in fact, everything other than the specific items listed, in fact, the figures for the specific categories are calculated from the default locations that such files are stored, so for music it checks the music folder etc. App data can...

    com.htc.bgp has stopped unexpectedly?

    com.htc.bgp errors have been coming up for years, Google it and you will find plenty of fixes. The most common causes are an error in calendar storage, or Facebook syncing. Go to settings>apps>calendar storage then click on clear data, also do the same with the calendar app itself and gmail...

    HTC one conection to HTC media link

    Once you are connected to the media link and the media is playing on the TV, just navigate to where you want on your phone and the media will continue on the TV. Its the same as when you play music on your phone, if you hit the home button for example, the music carries on playing. Media...

    UCBrowser

    I've been using the HD version on my tablet for some time and its excellent. I particularly like swiping to open/close/switch tabs and it is definitely one of the fastest browsers available. The phone version is another matter though, no faster than stock and far fewer features than the HD...

    HTC One 4.2 ATT Update

    The problem with rumours is that they are never true. If they do come true they are called facts, not rumours. Wait for the facts, ignore the rumours.

    Just read that you can only have 5 panels on the HTC One

    Not as absurd as you might think. Sense is known for its fluid interface that doesn't show any signs of the lag that afflicts devices even as powerful as the S4, limiting the amount of home screens and therefore the number of widgets running at the same time probably has more than a little to do...

    The Sexy One!!!

    Yum, yum! HTC One launches in 'glamour red', arrives in the UK next month (update: pricing) I think this looks fantastic, but knowing the phone as I do, I know all that cheeky redness would only get buried in a case to keep it safe. Nice as it is, I do hope that HTC are not going to go down...

    1.29 software update for UK carrier branded HTC One

    I am on EE (Orange) but my phone is an unlocked version, courtesy of P4U! I also got the update back in May, just after it was released. All of the updates in 1.29 are very subtle, as well as the camera improvements and button sensitivity tweaks there was also a modification to the Beats Audio...
