The phone is great but the main problem that I have is that the phone doesn't recognize my sd card. I tryed all of the formatting that exists but it still doesn't work.

        I have bought this phone before 2 weeks. Everything is fine but file manager is not given, you can download it from Google play store. The main problem I have seen that it cant play even than 720p videos and broadcast messages receive in SIM slot 2 more than 20 in a minutes and no option in the phone to stop it. I contact the customer care but they are helpless. It's a defect of this smartphone. HTC must solve this problem.

            I got this fone a month back..a good phone..but I have encountered 3 big problems..remidies welcomed..

            1.battery life is very bad.

            2.the camera lens part gets heated up while multi tasking or when the phone is on charging mode. Why??

            3.wi-fi connection was all good but since 3-4 days it's not getting connecting and while opening it the phone hangs and then a HTC error sending option appears which is way too irritating. Why it is happening?? What is the remedy??

                            AnonD-206150, 14 Nov 2013Can anyone help me out in increasing the battery backup , :... moreto increase battery backup turn off
                            gps
                            wifi
                            bluetooth
                            NFC
                            brightness manually 50-60%
                            Auto sync off
                            most imp is change the backlight time to 30 sec.

                            these should increase you battery backup.

                            if you are not a heavy game player then turn on battery saver mode too. and if you continuously use data connection for whatsapp and FB messenger then uncheck the option "turn off data when screen is locked" in power saver setting and now you can use power saving all the time.

                            hope it helps.

                                        One last question if you are kind enough :)

                                        Does the phone show (outgoing call waiting notifications)? That's if you are calling a person while this person is on another call, will your phone inform you with a (waiting call) message that lasts for a couple of seconds or whatsoever??
