Really sad to hear from you guys, personally looking forward this Christmas for the Arc but I might considered it again, because never reconsidered on their material policy.

Updating the poll at HTCMANIA:

8 people with a black/blue ARC with the crack at the same spot

19 people with a black/blue ARC without the crack

5 people with a silver ARC without the crack

It seems that not everyone is having this problem and that the silver ARC doesn't suffer it at all.

It RESETS it's date (always to 26th June) and time. Randomly, every week or so. What a cr..p.



after you set the date & time , switch the : Automatic(use network-provided values) on and leave it on don't switch it off.
it should solve your issue .

But I DON'T want it on. I want the time I set not automatic.

I would like to know if it's the bug or some apps cause this.

@doministry If it's a bug, I've not seen it in person. I think it's also unlikely but not impossible that it's an app. I'd be tempted to try a factory reset and don't install anything, then add apps one by one until you find the root of the issue. It may well just need a factory reset but installing the apps one by one ill allow you to eliminate those from your investigation also.

Thanks. I will definitely not do a hardreset, I don't really see a reason to make myself such a problem. I thought anyone found a reason or pattern since some other users reported this also.

@Bonovox

I have a silver Arc and on close examination I can see a really, really thin line going between the sensor and the edge of the phone. However it does not continue on where the edge bevels. As it is now I don't know if this is a crack in the casing... I'll guess I'll keep an eye on it from now on.

What you see on your phone is a molding issue. It is a nit line from the molding because the cut out for the sensor is molded in and there is a small core in the mold. The plastic has to flow around the core and where it meets up it leaves a nit line. That could affect every phone that is out there if the same molding process was used on all of the front covers. Sad but true.

Just got my arc yesterday, I noticed that when used in direct sunlight (even if the screen is switched off) these reflective dots appear in uniform lines the whole way across the screen, which is really annoying. It does it when you angle it to catch the sun. I was wondering if others have this problem or is it a fault? The screen is beautiful when out of sun and works fine

Are you sure your network provider supports this at all ? In Sweden, no opertator I know of supports automatic set of time, so whether it is enabled or not makes no difference here.

Those dots are normal, they are on the X10 as well.
