Used it for about 10 months and suddenly the phone started loosing signals. No hardware damage nothing- just when it toggles between 2G & 3G or vice versa - it just kept on loosing signals. Even in idle mode - u will suddenly see no signals than u need to give it 2/3 restarts. The backside of the phone becomes hot if u have a conversation of around 10 mins. The slot for SIM card is not a comfortable one - U have to fight to bring the SIM out and in process u might damage the SIM. On connectivity - u can't compare the download speeds which other smartphones get on the same network.............To HTC makers - One expects a longer life and better performance at this price slab.

                        I have these phone since march.
                        Suddenly on june screen froze and nothing is respond.
                        I send to HTC authorized dealer and after one month they return it to me and they told me that they change screen and flash the telephone.
                        I think that HTC have serious problems with this model.

                          post lollipop update, initially i was a very happy user. But now i am facing following issues:

                          1. 4GB phone memory is getting exhausted very fast.
                          2. HTC apps which i installed, post installation, there is no "uninstall" option not can move to external card. And they become part of ROM. Very cheap way to promote :(
                          3. Because of all this, eventually phone starts crawling!

                          i was wondering if anyone knows resolution without having to root the phone.

                          Thanks in advance.
