I shouldn't thought twice because I know someone is gonna post about how the numbers dont matter. But I was just wondering. How is the phone doing? gps, shutting down etc? I just think my local store has a bad batch.
[Captivate General] ConeyKiller:
In october I took back original 1006 build with shutdown issue. Since it was radio shack and people around here dont know ****, they still had new ones so I exchanged it for a NIB. Another 1006 build, never a single problem with it.
[Captivate General] FishDoc:
Got a replacement two weeks ago for my Captivate that "disappeared" at airport security. Went through the call-in process and got a refurbished phone without sign of normal wear and tear. Build is 1010 and so far everything is perfect (including the GPS which had never worked on my previous 1008). I have it running on CM7 installed on the SD and I'm amazed how much better this unit is than the previous one. Makes me almost glad the previous one flew the coop.
[Captivate General] NascarFastcar:
How long does the transaction take to ship and get to you? I know they just send the phone without a battery cover and battery. They also send a box to send the old one back in? The service center is about 20 mins from me but I just dont risk another bad one.
[Captivate General] quarlow:
I just got two replacements from ATT this week. One for me, one for wife. Both are build 1102. Both old ones were 1006 (need to mail those back soon). I noticed the three button combo works of stock froyo, but stopped working when I flashed stock eclair with Odin. I tried to flash GB on mine, same way I did with my 1006, soft brick. Had to buy a jig.

They wanted to give me free 5 day shipping, or charge for 2 day shipping. I explained I don't have a home phone, really need my cell to work and fast, they waived the fee. Called on Saturday night, arrived on Tuesday morning.

Sent from my Captivate running Cognition
[Captivate General] splitnail:
I've gotten 2 from AT&T since January, one for me and one for my girl. I've had zero problems. Both are 1007 models. I've flashed every ROM available on XDA.... multiple times... Smooth as can be. Sucks your having so many issues. This is a great phone. Very easy to work with. You would think it would be easy enough for them to make it all but new other then the cosmetic blemish here or there. I'm a big fan of putting up a stink if I don't get what was promised to me. If anything else goes wrong, I'd push for an upgrade... With the infuse out now, that would be a great way to go. I'm waiting to make any trouble till the SGS II comes out, then I'll figure out a way to get one for free ;)
[Captivate General] rpicaso:
Just got one a week and a half ago. build 1010
[Captivate General] axis01:
If there's a ATT repair store in your town, you can get a replacement in about 15min. :D
[Captivate General] hd779:
I sent my 1008 in for exchange due to random shutdown, paid for 2nd day shipping, received 1010 no shut downs and gps is ok.
[Captivate General] FishDoc:
48 hours from call-in to delivery of the "new" refurbished unit.
[Captivate General] NascarFastcar:
Thats what I've been doing. But about a week or two in every phone develops shutdowns. I should make a fuss and see if they will give me a new one out of the box.
[Captivate General] xThe Enforcer:
So wait ya'll haven't paid the $ for a refurbished cap through arts warranty?!
[Captivate General] fuloplori:
I got my refurbished cappy about a month ago,its a 1007 build.Had some issues with stock kb1 and a lota random restarts on ff 3.0 but ever since the switch to continuum 4(basicly onix kernel) all my issues were gone and became a happy cappy user :) About the gps : doesnt matter what rom I was on the gps fix from plumbob did it for me,get locks even with 70mph and tue tracking works just fine(no complaints) just be sure to follow the instructions prior flashing the fix.Also for me here in Hungary kb1 modem works the best but jk4 performance is acceptable to,so I dont feel the urge to switch to GB yet since everything runs smoooooth.
[Captivate General] NascarFastcar:
Nope had about 4 refurbs in the past few months. Didn't have to pay a thing. But what fee are you talking about? But I never damaged a thing.
[Captivate General] nyydynasty:
phone is fine but no matter what ROM we put on there, her phone wont ring sometimes - which I dont understand how that is NOT a rom issue but its happened to all the rom's I installed since she got her refurb. Its random and a reboot usually fixes it for a while until it happens again. There are some other minor quirks that I can't remember too.

GPS is fine

no shutdown issues
[Captivate General] xThe Enforcer:
Well, I pay the $5 a month and I thought if you want a new phone through AT&T you have to pay some $?! Do they comp everyone who has the typical Captivate problems and waive the fee?
[Captivate General] NascarFastcar:
I don't know. I don't have the $5 insurance. But every time I go get a refurb they offer it to me. But I never had to pay a dime when exchanging my phone at a service center and like someone said above it only takes about 10 mins.
[Captivate General] Snapdaddy:
Hmm, I'm using continuum now but I'm really not liking it. It has some issues like it lags on using the contact list. I've also had it randomly shut off. I was using fire fly before and it was fantastic, but I wanted to use netflix. Going to try out cyanogen.

Oh and I got a refurb 1007, which seems to have fixed my issues.
[Captivate General] NDub21:
I just got a refurb about 2 weeks ago from a device support center by where I live in Houston. The first one I got wouldn't charge the battery so I went and got another one. It's a 11.01 build and everything has been working flawlessly. GPS works great and no sleep deaths or anything yet. Makes me actually like this phone for a change.
[Captivate General] nyydynasty:
try swapping the kernel to fix the lag issues. That worked for me and some other people.
[Captivate General] Killerfish1450:
The $5 a month is for insurance if you drop it in a lake, free replacement is under manufacture warranty for 1 year.
[Captivate General] xThe Enforcer:
Oh, gotcha.
[Captivate General] jimrusling:
I have had two refurbished units shipped from the warranty center and both have had shutdown problems. I picked up a third refurbished unit 3 days ago and so far no shutdowns.
[Captivate General] emooheo:
I bought my phone off ebay. Will they still replace my phone?

also, what do you need to bring in when replacing the phone?
[Captivate General] stuff:
Yeah they are called device repair centers I think. You can get addresses on AT&T website.

I just did this about 2 weeks ago. Got a refurb/replacement cause I hard-bricked mine (on purpose) and they exchanged it with only needing my SSN for my account. I got a build 1008, but it's whatever Been working fine, and no shutdowns or probs that I have noticed
[Captivate General] stuff:
AT&T will replace any phone as long as it's under warranty, to my knowledge.

If it has it's 1 year warranty (from new) or 90 day warranty (refurb) they will test it, and give you a new one if it's necessary.

Just walk into one of their repair centers.
[Captivate General] NascarFastcar:
Called atnt earlier and they acted like they never heard of the problem. Tried walking me thru doing a factory reset. Just played along but didn't reset. They said they will call me back tomorrow to see if the problem happens. Tried explaining that it's completely random and 24 hours is nothing. But w/e it just just down while charging for an hour just now.
[Captivate General] NascarFastcar:
The 90 day one makes no sense to me. Say if you got a phone new, 6 months in you have to exchange it for a refurb. Does that mean you only have 90 days or do you still have 6 months?

I was told that the original owner always has 1 year by a atnt rep.
[Captivate General] faroid:
I replaced mine last month. I don't like the volume and power buttons on the refurbished one. They feel cheap and not easy to press. Everything else works fine including gps. I'm not sure if I should replace again :s
[Captivate General] ln100:
Recently got 3 refurbs..... 1008, 1009, 1011. I think it is just a gamble as to what you will get.
[Captivate General] mfpmax:
Recently got a 1008 build...but its gonna have to go back, started having a different problem than the random shut down....instead its random lock down LOL
[Captivate General] rflnc1:
you have the remainder of your orignal warranty or 90 days..whichever is longer..my wife's original warranty on her bold ran out in november...just got another replacement last month
[Captivate General] zmore:
Have an original 1008 revision here, and never had a problem with GPS or random shutdowns (that weren't caused by subsequent ROM installs).

It really does seem to be a crapshoot for which phones will suffer problems. (Has there been a revision# problem/noproblem poll yet?)
[Captivate General] NascarFastcar:
Just a update. Went thru the warranty and they sent me a 1103. March built I guess. Phone felt like the others sluggish and the gps was terrible. Only kept it for 2 days till I went back to my local service center and they gave me a 1102. What was weird about this was that I think it's a brand new phone...

Even though it's a 1102 built (apparently a month older then the one before) it still had the stock samsung sticker inside. Not a plain refurbish unit sticker. Trust me after have about 6 phones I know that it is the original silverish sticker under the battery. The the number was printed 1102 and not 11.02. The phone also had the original (Dont txt while driving) screen protector on and no air bubble under it..

They mustve gave me a new phone.

So far the phone is much snappier then any other ive had. Gps is spot on in maps/tracking and navigation. About 11 locked sats withing 10 seconds around 30+snr range. And not issues with shutdowns or unlocking lag.
[Captivate General] AdamOutler:
I just got a 1103 as well. Previously I got a 1008 and 1101
[Captivate General] Aus_Azn:
Same deal here, I had a 1007 which broke.

My first replacement was a 1007 that came soft-bricked out of the box, with no 3button. Sounds like they screwed up the stock flash at the refurb factory. It had a white label under the battery cover, which was clearly not original, and the screen protectors were thin and cheap.

My second replacement is what looks like a brand new 1102. No cosmetic flaws, came with the "TXTNG & DRIVNG: IT CAN WAIT" protector on it and the original battery cover label. GPS was speedy, and is now instantaneous with PlumbBobv2b11. I'm not willing to chance my luck with GB, bootloaders, or Odin anymore, not after finding that refurb units lack 3button and I don't want to sacrifice my apparently-new 1102 for some CM7 action.
[Captivate General] NascarFastcar:
Thats nice to hear. I use to run plumbob v1 on my original captivate (stock kb1). Im getting better tracker and about the same speed in locks now with this 1102 stock captivate.

You said you flashed v2b11? How much of a improvement did it make over the stock gps on ur new refurb? Did you play around with the stock gps? Also did you flash the fix over while on stock froyo?
[Captivate General] pkadavid:
I skipped the $5 insurance cause you still end up having to be like $200 if you're at fault to have them replace it. Didn't seem worth it to me. I'd rather just be a bit more careful.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] codeworks:
I picked up my HTC Flyer this evening at Best Buy. General feel and speed of the device is very quick. I did not get the pen yet. They did not have any of those in stock at the particular store I was at.

My question however deals with the Onlive service. I was under the impression that the Flyer would come with Onlive built in to the system... However, I cannot find it or find any additional detail on the service. This was supposed to be one of the key selling points I thought.

Anyone have any details?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] jwiskowski:
I have no details. Reviewers mentioned it was coming soon. I assume it has simply been delayed. But, it does bother me HTC has said nothing about it, and removed mentions of it from all their marketing and promotional videos.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] glitzbd:
Bump

Rather than start a new thread, maybe this will be useful! Engadget has a video demoing OnLive on our lovely Flyer's with a wireless controller!

Check here!
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] ICHAPMAN:
I wondering is this was a lovely bit of marketing spin.

In that 'eventually' you will be able to use Onlive (once Onlive is ready), but the way it was marketing suggested to you (and the rest of us) that it would be from launch.

I suspect if we looked, we'd be hard pushed to see anything from either party (HTC or Onlive) that actually says from launch.

Similarilly I'd thought I'd seen in some of the media/PR around MWC that with the Flyer you'd be able to use Skype supporting video. Now again that doesn't seem to be the case, as Microsoft don't yet have a freely available version of SkyPe available that supports video under Android.

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] i00:
Originally stated that video calling would be possible too :(

Kris
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Westfire:
Don't get me wrong, I really enjoy my Flyer but I feel with a handful of apps and services not available like they claimed, it is extremely disappointing. This tablet feels really rushed and it is strange because they were one of the last companies to market a tablet device. My impression originally is that Honeycomb would be released for it shortly after it was released but I keep reading it won't be released for potentially 3-5 months from now. I can't complain about Honeycomb too much because I knew that way before purchasing it but still...
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] spaceshippen:
In my opinion I don't think honey will take that long bc the 10" version is going to have honey on it with the scrib also. Im prety sure that i herd and saw on some reviews from HTC view that it will be getting honey shortly after launch which is June 24, so I'm thinking once the 10" comes out or right around that time the ota will be sent out. The 10" is supposed to hit this summer july. I have a friend with HTC and he also said when I asked him before flyer hit the shelf, "its coming soon after flyer's launch, along with onlive probably coming with the update."

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OverdrivenCore:
I recently recieved a Nexus One that I cannot reflash at all. It simply will sit at the static X logo upon boot. I can still access the bootloader. Recovery does not work at all. I have tried to wipe and restore using fastboot, and whenever I try to write any images, they seem to push to the phone (progress indicator on phone fills up, etc) but I never get a finished message on the computer. I let it sit for half an hour before I gave up on it and pulled the battery. I have tried this with Windows 7 on a desktop and a MacBook Pro, using various different USB ports and cable combinations on them. I cannot do the PASSIMG.zip method either because the phone never seems verify the FRG83 image but will never offer me the Yes or No dialog to write out the files. It kicks back to the regular bootloader options.

Is this Nexus One bricked? Can I bring it back from the next-to-dead? Am I really just missing something obvious here?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LFact:
By the way, have you unlocked the bootloader? Using fastboot to push anything requires unlocked bootloader.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OverdrivenCore:
The bootloader is unlocked.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dude Random21:
Ok well this might be a stupid question but you said you were using windows 7 and with windows the extension is hidden so if you name the file passimg.zip it will actually be named passimg.zip.zip and the phone won't recognize it so try naming it passimg

Also for the passimg method did you try using the frg33 file instead of the frg83 file.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OverdrivenCore:
I have Windows set to show all extensions regardless. I would say I'm plenty savvy when it comes to computers, just not Android (yet ;))

I tried both the FRG33 and FRG83 files. They just don't seem to do anything. The phone seems to check them: It says that it found the PASSIMG.zip and the progress bar in the upper right slowly fills up. Once it fills, it sits for a second and just kicks back to the normal bootloader choices as usual.

Thank you for all the quick responses! I hope I can fix this Nexus One. It's practically in mint condition...
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dude Random21:
It's strange that the bootloader is unlocked but you can't flash any ROMs :/

When you say that recovery doesn't work at all what exactly do you mean by that? When you boot into recovery what happens?

Now since we talked passimg I doubt it will work more than the others but did you try the GRI40 file?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OverdrivenCore:
I cannot seem to find a GRI40 that can act as a passimg. And when I say recovery doesn't work at all I mean that I just proceed to the the static, non-moving nexus logo and it doesn't ever proceed past it. I have tried to use "fastboot boot recovery.img" with a ClockworkMod and Amon_RA image and it seems to upload to the phone but I just end up with the nexus logo.

It seems that I can fastboot erase the userimg and cache, and get results that are expected. When I fastboot flash anything it sends to the phone but the phone never seems to do anything with it past that point.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dude Random21:
When it gets stuck on the static X logo do you get 7 vibrations?

Did you try and fastboot flash Amon-RA then try and reboot into recovery. And for the GRI40 file it's on htc's developers web site http://developer.htc.com/
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OverdrivenCore:
I only get one vibration. I tried to flash Amon_RA and reboot but it's like the flash never completes. I don't get anything different.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amjithg:
same issue here and browsing since yesterday for a proper solution and not yet !! any brave ideas ,pls share!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] taodan:
Try fastboot erase to erase everything on the phone then flash fresh recovery
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidkid311:
Kind of in the same boat, opened a thread my self but none of the suggestions are working. When im in fast boot it freezes for a second a runs a quick check. I just about catch it saying wrong passimg image or something along them lines.

[Galaxy S II General] 1234567188:
does anyone know if this will be 4g, I assume no, but a guy can hope can't he?
[Galaxy S II General] BarryH_GEG:
From what I've read on the tech sites, VZW is supposed to be the first U.S. carrier to get the phone and it's supposed to be LTE. Time frames talked about were Q3/Q4. AT&T is supposed to be next, following VZW by a quarter. No time frame mentioned for Sprint but they're supposed to be getting a variant. It looks like T-Mobile's getting a higher-spec version of the monster-screened Infuse called Hercules instead of the SGS2.
[Verizon Droid Charge] gregh530:
Anyone having performance issues with their charge? I had high expectations for this phone but im getting lag in just about everything. . IE this forum scrolling through threads is way laggy compared to fascinate. Im not sure if I have a bunk phone or if the hardware sucks or if its the ROM just sucks. Any hope for this phone?
[Verizon Droid Charge] Chelseablue:
No I'm noticing some laggy browsing as well. Coming from the Droid Incredible i figured this would be much quicker. At times I think 3g on it was faster than wifi on this. Im sure it'll speed up once the cache builds up for the sites i browse. I also notice my linpack and quadrant scores are pants on this. I would love root and a new kernel but that damn ota seems to be holding us back.
[Verizon Droid Charge] ShotgunSam:
My guess is its the charge's browser. I read reviews where it has bad problems with sites with a lot of flash (such as the ads). just tried this site on both the stock browser and dolphin browser and dolphin browser works fine.

It was nearly unreadable on the stock browser. So try a browser from the market.
