TyTN bundle case...

[steveweb]

Hi all and sorry if this argument eventually has been already discuss!
I have already tried some cases for my TyTN, but the bundle case is perfect for my needs! But on many forums I readed many opinions... some users regret that It is the really problem for the screen alignment issue...
I dont know what to do... can I use it without worry... or it's better that I dont use it???
is there anyone that use it with satisfaction?

Thanks!
Stefano

I have had occasion to have the magnet in the case rotate my screen, but that did not misalign the screen in any way. If you are buying a new case don't let this be your only reason. As far as I can tell this does no harm to the phone or screen.

Thank you very much for your reply! I've heard about occasionally screen rotation, but this fact isnt a problem for me.
Until now, I never had the screen alignment issue (and I hope neither in the next future!!!)... On many forums I have readed a lot of theory on this problem, and I would like to be safe that the bundle case doesnt create further issue.

Thank you for your experience!

Hi, I only used the bundle case for about 10 minutes total, and have had no alignment issues with my serial 630 unit, been using it tons for about a month now.

I really didn't like how strong those magnets were and it constantly bothered me, not tryin to say that the magnets are bad, or tell you to get a different case...but if it can effect rotation, and I haven't had an alignment issue.....it kinda makes me wonder if it is causing some problems for people, I really can't say for sure, just thought I would share my info.

[steveweb]

Thank you for your reply.
I understand your point of view!
The magnets are surely many strenght... indeed the screen rotation of TyTN is commanded from a magnet... so the magnets of the bundle case are so strength to create a false output...
However I have heard from HTC throughts email... and they are told me that the problem is hardware... so I think that the problem has been the magnet case... they have already advise us... (I dont think that they really wont to change or repair a lot of device if it is possible to have a simply solution: dont using the case!).

What do you think about this? Is there other experience with the boundle case? Any idea?
I'm also sorry to cant use a good case that I have already pay eheheheh

Thanks!

I have screen alignemnt issue, and I have NEVER used the magnet case, so I can say the issue is not related to the case.

[aadadams]

The hardware they referred to is internal TyTN hardware and not case related would be my guess. Those persons with the screen alignment problem that are outside of the return period are getting the devices fixed without having the case replaced.

Cool...I was hoping some people would say they had alignnent issues and hadn't used the case, I really couldn't say for sure.

I did end up having to cut the top bar out of my aluminum case, cause it caused the screen to flicker at times, and that combined with the screen rotating just made me wonder what all issues could happen with certain cases.

Its a good thing that the case can be ruled out of the cause for alignment issues.

Thank you pof and thanks to all... It's a good thing to know that the issue was occurring also without utilization the bundle case (sorry pof, I wouldnt like to say that I'm glad for your SA problem, conversely I'm sorry for your issue and I hope that you can solve... so like all people have this device with the SA!).

Also, if HTC dont replace the bundle case when a device presents the SA problem is another information that could rule out doubts related the case...

What do you think?

I have been having an ongoing problem with answering incoming calls... It seems that whenever I remove the phone from the case, the screen is rotated. As the screen is rotating back, the TyTN seems to drop the call.. too much CPU in rotating the screen? Anyway, I never thought it was the magnet in the OEM case (which is a great case, otherwise). I will try another case to see if the call answering problem goes away. Thanks!

[steveweb]

I dont know if your issue with the incoming call is related with the screen rotation, but I can tell that the screen rotation seems has been only when yhou put the TyTN power-on in the case... or if you touch the power button when you eztracting the device from the case. I dont think that the device stay with the screen rotate when the power i s off. But I cant really sure... only I suppose...

Ciao

Is there anyone that he would like to tell us the own experience with TyTN, the bundle case and the possibile appears of SA issue... for understand the possibile correspondence with bundle case and the alignment problems?

Thanks

One quick fix for this problem :-

Sharp blade on the four edges of the case removes four very powerfull magnets and two washers ?
Re glue corners with superglue and attach small piece of velcro to keep flap closed.

Worked for me and no screen rotating issues with this case :)

I bought an IDS case from Hong Kong ($ 25) and I am not impressed with the quality. Good ideas but badly executed. So now I am back to the HTC magnetic job. I don't have any SA problems but I do notice that the magnetic force causes screen rotation. I have also experienced call dropping on removing the TyTN from the OE case.
But I am sure HTC are aware of the magnetic influence and find it quite acceptable.

Strangly, the strong magnet in the bundled case causes the phone to answer calls during sliding it out.
This is somehow a reason for why I am searching now for a Bluetooth headset that has a caller ID mini LCD.
