I definitely have the issue, but seems not as bad as it was when I first got it. It's a strange one, I've never seen it on an LCD before. It's not even what you'd traditionally call screen bleed, that's normally light coming onto a dark screen.

Speaking of which...@Basil

XZ Premium or P10 Plus? There's nothing really else on the list of interest bar the S8 or iPhone 7 (bearing on mind I'll keep whatever I get because I can't do done deal)..

I dunno, tough call. Personally, I'd probably go for the P10 plus, just because it's something a bit different. The main thing that would put me off is the supposed lottery with components used.

I'd happily use either, though. Not many bad flagships these days.

Has anyone picked up any good screen protector s or cases for this yet?

Got some cheap screen protectors on ebay put one on and its a piece of ****. Makes screen look fuzzy and adds horrible feel to touching it.

I just want a nice clear case that shows off the look of the phone spigen will be perfect but there not available for at least another month and a decent screen protector.

I just dont trust it long term going naked with this phone with all that glass.

How does it fit ? Completely clear case ? I find a lot of screen protectors in general take away from the overall quality of the screen to.

This is the glass one I got that was too big so the edges didn't stick https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B072FHX7HN/

And I got the others from MobileFun. I see they've a tempered glass Olixar one now too that I might try. They also have the Spigen liquid crystal now too which, going by my S7 edge one, would be slightly more rigid than the one I got below.

Protectors - http://ie.mobilefun.com/63874-olixar-htc-u11-screen-protector-2-in-1-pack.htm

Case - http://ie.mobilefun.com/63876-olixar-ultra-thin-htc-u11-gel-case-100-clear.htm

I wonder do the covers support every case and not just there own brand ones?

sentient_6 · 23-06-2017 11:55pm

Does the edge sense still work through the Olixar case?

It looks well, have always been wary of gel cases in that they always seemed bulky and horrible in the past, but might have a look at it.

I like that it has separate cutouts for the camera and flash as opposed to the Spigen ones which have a large D shape which does both.

From what I've seen spigen cases support edge sense as well. By major flaw otherwise.

It's not exactly confidence inspiring that the US models are 3 system updates ahead of the European ones already. Didn't this happen with the 10 too?

I wouldn't bother counting the number of updates. The ROM I'm on is based on EU 1.13.401.x, so that should be pushed out by HTC soon.

I don't think they've necessarily been left behind regarding base numbers. Only security patches, as far as I know.

yeah, i don't like the look of them. i'm also happy to be able to access the two options i have globally. i wouldn't want to be in maps and trying to access the camera, and all it does is zoom.

the rom i'm on has already modified edge sense with loads of custom actions for the squeeze and long squeeze.

Very true, never thought of that. Hopefully it can still be left as a global shortcut once these are introduced.

Much else in the newer version across the whole software or is anything good part of the custom stuff?

Here are the current options. He's going to add more, along with double squeeze in the next while.

How Soon Is Now · 26-06-2017 9:16pm

Posted in the xda thread as well but can take a while getting reply on there so taught id ask here to. Has anyone had issues with the notification bar not fully coming down since updating to ViperU 1.2.0 ??

I doubt many here are running custom ROMs. Include a screenshot of your issue in the post, and you're more likely to get help because the description might be a bit vague for people that don't have the issue.

Currently running a beta with double squeeze action set. Nice to have a third option available from the squeeze, use it daily.

Just purchased my U11 from CPW today with software number 1.031.61.7. Can anyone with a SIM free U11 tell me if it's a SIM free version of what their software number is?
Thanks

If you have a WWE unlocked device, the second to last numbers should be 401.

Bit disappointed it's not a unlocked device. I'll apply for the unlocking code and think about maybe potting the stock softest on to it.

Is the 3rd number in your software version definitely 61? I looked it up, and that should be for Orange UK, which is pretty weird.

The third number is 161 . Should be Vodafone?

Ah, makes sense. One of your dots was in the wrong place. Yeah, that's the SKU for Vodafone UK.

Are the panels on the U11 pretty good. Have read reports of light bleed on the bottom in a few reviews now. Wondering how common this is. Only other minus I have read is the camera shutter button can be a bit slow My S8+ is going soon as it's a lagfest and its between the U11 and OP5.

Also seen this chap selling the 6GB model. I wonder what the chances of it being an international unlocked model from HTC which will get the OTA updates direct.

I offered to get some 6gb dual SIM versions for anyone who wants them a couple of pages back, but there was no interest... They were international, unlocked.

You can probably buy em cheap, but once you add 23% VAT coming into Ireland, all savings are probably lost.

Mine has a bit of this bleed at the bottom left, but it definitely seems to have faded. Doesn't really bother me. Overall, the screen is good. Running my dark theme, the screen almost looks like an amoled.

Flaccus · 27-06-2017 4:14pm

Thanks Basil3. I think I will go for the 6/128GB version, now that i know it will get OTA updates from HTC. Anyone know when Solar red is getting released ?

maverick_21 · 27-06-2017 4:22pm

Where are you buying the 6GB version? Im only seeing 4GB RAM offered in Ireland. Thanks.

27-06-2017 5:23pm

Germany has been pushed the 1.13 base today.....must be close for us.
