AnonD-215746, 11 Oct 2016my htc one max is dead.. :'( two days ago it just keeps on ... morewhen the phone is off.
1. hold "volume down" and press power.
2. let go the "volume down" when you see the screen with the 3 skateboard androids.
3. use volume keys to move to "recover" and press the "power" key.
the phone should reboot in Android system recovery mode.
4. use the volume keys to go to "wipe cache partition" and press power.
5. then go to "wipe data/factory reset" and press power.
6. then go to "reboot system now" and press power.
The phone should start like a new phone now.

some times corrupted files in the cache get loaded after a factory reset, that causes a boot-loop. That is why you should wipe the cache partition then do the factory reset.

        My ex-girlfriend gave me my one max on the new year of 2014 and I continued to use it until I dropped it and cracked the screen 3 months ago. I've been looking for a similar size device with front facing stereo speakers and dual sim with dedicated memory card slot. I couldn't find anything which will do the same. There is simply nothing to achieve the same. It's camera was crap but it's ok.
        I was almost going to buy an ASUS ZF3 Deluxe but I noticed that it has no noise killing by dedicated mic or stereo sound recording, neither stereo speakers. Pissed me off.
        Now I want to ask a question to the research and development guys in HTC, would you like to listen to your stupid marketing people and their statistical studies or instead the fans of HTC? The last one was my 5th HTC and I love the brand. Why do you ruin good things?
        I mean look at the device One Max; all you need to do is upgrading the technology and to put a few more things like waterproof, etc. If you have just upgraded the cam sensor, chip-set and processor, One Max is a great device that there is nothing to replace it now. But you just spend/ waste your research and development budget to create One M9 / M9 Plus, M10 and other mambo jumbo, the end result is a disappointment. Why are you ruining the good things that you already have? I'm using the company phone which is a Samsung and still looking for a smartphone. I do not care about how much will it coast, all I need is a proper smartphone which will do the job properly.
        I hope you guys will change your mindset and create a proper phablet size smart device with proper sound! Or your employer will lose his market share big time, then it will come to employements.

        Whoever's idea was to create HTC One Max, is a true genius. But we need the same genius, because it was long time ago and you have nothing to replace it.

          ghettobass, 30 Aug 2016Fingerprint sensor is not working on a custom rom...Yes, it does. You will have to lock the bootloader again. I did it with mine. Running on a custom rom and the finger print sensor was working. Findout how in youtube videos or developer forums.

                              Recently bought a next HTC ONE MAX on Amazon to replace my damaged ONE MAX that is no longer under warranty. It was supposed to be NEW, factory unlocked.
                              It came sealed and looked new, but it was rooted & had a ROM with no option in settings to check for updates.
                              And yes the fingerprint scanner was still working.

                              But because my banking app would not work on a rooted phone. I had to undo it using the official HTC ONE MAX Unlocked/Developer Edition ROM Update 9.8.2015 available for download on the HTC USA site.

                                  I've used a couple HTC One Max...I often found myself coming back to it after using some new HTC phones. I guess it's because it's bigger and the boomsound bombs all sound mehn. I'm using sense 7 I got my rooted with m9 based rom. And now the camera can compete with S7....If you doubt me go down load Vernon HTC sense7 custom....

                                  Yes I do have a question for you guys....higher dpi(ppi) or lower which is better for brighter screen like m9 brightness?

                                    Guys if you wanted to change the screen dpi of htc one max without root, follow the steps below.


                                    Before you start, please ensure you have a working adb tool install on your PC and you have driver install on your PC.
                                    refer here if you don't http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2588979
                                    This can only be done thru the PC

                                    Original the HTC One max density is 373. This guide will help to change to density 320 (or any size, you can do a trial many times and test your screen, if you are satisfied then stick to it, if not, you can revert back to 373) screen resolution remain on 1920x1080.

                                    Step by Step
                                    1) pls enable the developer mode on your HTC One Max
                                    2) check the USB debugging on the developer option
                                    3) plug in the USB and connect your phone to the PC
                                    4) press on the PC " window" key + "X" key and select command prompt (admin)
                                    5) in the command prompt , put in text adb after C:\windows\system32>
                                    6) your phone share pop up message to authorize the usb debugging, select YES.
                                    7) If step 5 & 6 don't come up any long message on the window command prompt, this mean you did not install properly the adb tool in your pc. (refer above to redo)

                                    8) at this step , mean adb is done properly and go back to command prompt in the window
                                    9) enter text "adb shell wm density 320" after the C:\windows\system32>. it look like this C:\windows\system32>adb shell wm density 320 and press enter key on PC
                                    10) Now your phone have change to screen density 320. everything will look smaller now.
                                    11) you need to re-start the HTC One max phone and all screen size will completely change to new density 320.
                                    12) you are done. now you can re-arrange your phone icon and have a fresh look !!


                                    How to go back to original screen density
                                    1) repeat the step 1 , 2, 3, 4 & 5.
                                    2) key in C:\windows\system32>adb shell wm density 480 and press enter on pc
                                    3) restart your phone then you will go back to original screen resolution

                                    its fun to try though. :) enjoy
