you've had some bad luck dude. Mine was completely fine
[myTouch 3G Slide General] Wagedroid:
Since the phone release I've owned and flashed a gazillion times. Never had a problem with hardware though. I love this piece of crap

Sent from my fingertips using Android.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] gtmaster303:
Mine never had any real problems. I didn't like how the phone was made of cheap plastic. It made the phone feel quite low end. But the phone itself was without fault. Maybe a little short on the power side (my phone had a tendency to crash under a load), but it was a very great phone throughout
[myTouch 3G Slide General] SefEXE:
My phone was great since June 10th, 2010. I did root it on the 31st of December and after that everything was even better.

Of course I don't own it now, but it's still in my house. (Passed down to the mom)
[myTouch 3G Slide General] jwoody:
Before I got the slide, I had the G1. Replaced it 4 times. The slide hasn't been replaced once yet, knock on wood. Compared to phones like the G2, the design feels solid to me, and it's taken plenty of abuse.

Hard to say why so many are having trouble with the model, maybe a bad batch got produced or something. I think it's a great Mid-range phone. Except for the camera, that does suck.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] nbetcher:
It is known to HTC/T-Mo that the MT3GS has many hardware issues. The largest problem being blurry CMOS in the camera. I've had my Slide replaced twice, once for blurry camera, second for defective radio.
[HTC Inspire 4G] bdpyo:
Hey so I was swapping SD cards out and cracked my cover. Still in one piece but cracked directly in the center of the cover.

I have a warranty store about 10 minutes from me. I am rooted and I was wondering if I should just call for a new one over the phone or just take it to the warranty store and ask for another one.

I don't want to root to stock in fear of having them see what I have going on and screw me over...

What do you guys think?

Also, havent noticed if it has effected actual signal strength yet..
[HTC Inspire 4G] elijahpr:
I don't think they'll need your phone for it at the store, so it might be worth it to go and try there. I got replacements for both my SIM and battery door covers after both broke, and they took only a few days to get here from HTC, so if you do decide to call in it shouldn't be too long of a wait.
[HTC Inspire 4G] bdpyo:
Appreciate your reply, I'd like to just use the store but I dont want any unwanted attention, also, do you have a reputable number to call for HTC?
[HTC Inspire 4G] g3ismeee:
I had a SIM card stop working and wanted a repalcement right away so waltzed into the ATT retail store...at first it didn't get data so the gal grabs the phone and reboots it...she sure gave me the quizzical eye when she saw my Virtuous Unity boot splash, and then goes into settings and sees the check boxes are all themed blue..made comments about blinged out phone and she never saw anything like that...point is

i was taking a chance...at the warranty center they might be a little more unforgiving...for something like that I might think about going through HTC...just trying to put myself in your shoes...
[HTC Inspire 4G] elijahpr:
This is the number I've successfully gotten replacements from: 1-888-617-1113

All you need is some basic information like your name, a shipping address, and your phones IMEI number.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Jake33108:
I would just take it to the store and ask for one. There's no reason for them to look at your phone or go through your settings if all you need is a cover for the SD card. Put a pin or pattern unlock on it so they can't see anything and it should be fine.
[HTC Inspire 4G] moe3754:
Just get it from HTC they will have it to you in a couple of days and you do not have to mess with AT&T, besides AT&T would not have the replacements for the cover, I got both of mine replaced from HTC and there was no problem getting them from them.
[HTC Inspire 4G] g3ismeee:
Heh! I might do that too :p. Too be honest it was kinda fun with my experience with the ATT gal...of course I didn't say "I'm rooted"...she just say it's a bling'd out phone and I say "Yeah" prolly with a sheepish grin...
[HTC Inspire 4G] bdpyo:
Im just gonna prolly call htc, signal strength seems pretty fair so fair.

Thanks for the input and information guys. :)

[Droid X Themes and Apps] runandhide05:
ok guys, a while back i went from 2.2 to 2.3, and today i noticed that the video editing app that came pre installed on the droidx is no longer on the official gb. if there is anyone running 2.2, rooted, and knowledgable with root explore, could u find and pull that apk, would like to see if its just an app that was forgetten about or if it doesnt work with gb and thats why its no longer on gb.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tpthatsme:
The default sound is nowhere to be found. I have looked in System/Media and it is not there. The tone I am talking about is when no tone is selected in the selection area. The AT&T tone is selected by default for the ringtones, but nothing is selected for the notification tone. The notification still has a default sound and that's the one I am trying to find. Any help would be great.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xenocyde:
I am little confused on what your asking which version of Android and firmware your running. Can you see the ring tone where you go to change it in settings? And if your looking for where in system the file it self is what are you using to go though your files with. Personally I like root explorer but you have to have root I will look to see where tones are.

AT&T ATRIX - VERSION 2.3.4 ROOTED BL UNLOCKED :)
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tpthatsme:
I am on a rooted Motorola Atrix with Gingerblur ROM installed (2.2.2). The ringtone I am interested in was on the stock Atrix as well. This tone can be found by going to Messaging, Menu->Settings->Notification settings->Select ringtone->Default ringtone. But this ringtone is not where I would expect. My goal is to make this Default ringtone my Phone ringtone instead of my Messaging Notification ringtone. I looked with Astro in /system/media/audio/notifications... actually, I looked in all the folders in audio (alarms, notifications, ringtones, ui) and this tone is not there. Is there somewhere else to look with Astro? Thanks for the help!

or the casecrown

[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] dfin13:
I'd go with the CaseCrown, mainly because it has a typing angle. You probably think you'll never use it like that, but believe me, it comes in very handy and makes typing (and browsing) a lot easier than laying it flat.

Wish I'd waited -- I like my official Asus case, but damn, I paid over twice as much as the CaseCrown!
[HTC EVO 3D] PensFan66:
Has anyone else experienced a screen issue where a line all the way across the screen goes white, with some odd colors blended in? It also blinks from time to time.

If I press the power to turn off the screen and then turn it on again, it comes back normal.

I have only seen this happen twice and its been while temp rooting the phone? I cant imagine that this has anything to do with it - So Im probably going to return it to the store and get a replacement.....
[HTC EVO 3D] cordell12:
has something to do with the exploit, mine does it too, only while running the root though...
[HTC EVO 3D] PensFan66:
WOW! I thought for sure I was just nuts thinking it was the exploit causing the issue ... I would rather not take the phone back, I have way too much work in it from setups/etc ....

Wonder if we can get more confirmations :)
[HTC EVO 3D] juice9963:
Mine too, at the bottom of the screen multi color single line
[HTC EVO 3D] EricSS619:
My friends does this and he has never done any messing around with root or anything.
[HTC EVO 3D] PensFan66:
Thanks for the replies, so it happened to someone who didnt root - Now I really need to decide if I want to deal with taking it back or not ... Im not sure they even will since I cant reproduce it at will.

**EDIT** OK, So I can reproduce this 100% of the time on this phone. Im using the newest Fre3vo assist tool (Easy Fre3vo) and during the ADB portion and the exploit that line appears. If I Control-C the script, the line goes away - and it also goes away after it completes the script. I started the script again and it comes back, etc, etc .... So I feel better thats its not the phone in this case - ADB and rooting does that. I have no idea why ...
[HTC EVO 3D] shad0w77:
i believe the temp root process does something w/ a 0 degree rotation of the screen. pretty sure that's what causing it. don't worry about it and go enjoy your temp root! ;)
[HTC EVO 3D] PensFan66:
:) Thanks ... Its nice to know its not the phone ....
[HTC EVO 3D] filebug:
mine was doing this before the root i thought it was just a jacked up widget.
[HTC EVO 3D] dagnasty:
The root exploit was discovered through bug in the Qualcomm video drivers so what you are seeing could be a by-product of this.
[Streak 5 General] Dsmwookie:
I am so happy with my purchase. A friend of mine grabbed one off craigslist for me in Ohio and mailed it down. The screen size is stupendous! I am just enamored by the amount of real estate I have. I was worried about the picture quality in comparison to my Vibrant, but it doesn't seem as drastic as I thought it would be.

Thanks for all the help and I look forward to contributing however I can.
[Streak 5 General] TheManii:
Can you tell us what rom is on it?
[Streak 5 General] Dsmwookie:
Sure tell me how and ill gladly provide.
[Streak 5 General] Dsmwookie:
The os is 2.2.2 if that helps.
[Streak 5 General] TheManii:
The baseband version should say something like GAUSB1A13xx00-AWS

what's the 3xx numbers? if you're not sure just put in the entire thing
[Streak 5 General] Dsmwookie:
34934-aws
[Streak 5 General] TheManii:
that is completely new to us, could you possibly make a nandroid dump of it?

If you dont know how you can use multirecoveryflasher in the android dev forum to easily install streakmod to do that

Could you also post the build number?
[Streak 5 General] Dsmwookie:
Build number "simple streak 1.2"

Ill need help with nandroid. Is that an app?
[Streak 5 General] TheManii:
Oh simple streak is already installed on top of it?

It's one of the functions of a custom recovery, lets you restore to a previously working copy that you made earlier if something breaks.

If you have simple streak installed you prob already have streakmod installed
[Streak 5 General] Dsmwookie:
I bought it off someone on craigslist so it's possible. Is this good or bad?

I'm also having an issue with the phone charging, but not connecting to my pc. Any thoughts?
[Streak 5 General] TheManii:
It's simply a custom rom, for the charging part are you sure the cable is snug? Does it look damaged?
[Streak 5 General] Dsmwookie:
It is not an easy slide in kind of friction, but nothing obstructs entry; firm.
[Streak 5 General] Dsmwookie:
How do the pins look inside your streaks? Some of mine seem recessed at odd intervals
[Streak 5 General] pimmpinit:
I'm having the same problem with my streak. It will only charge to 75% maybe and will constantly flash charge/discharge while plugged in to my wall, computer, or car charger. I have four different cables so its not the cable and I have two different batteries. good thing I bought a external charger with a second battery. I think my problem is with Simply Streak... it could be yours to.

[Streak 5 General] Dsmwookie:
Long of it short. Dell got me a battery and cable in 2 days. It did not fix the problem so a new replacement Cincy Bell phone is en-route to my place. I ve heard they have poor customer service, but it seems fine to me.

EDIT: Problem solved it wasn't locked again.
[Streak 5 General] TheManii:
If you're getting a new cincy bell one and not a generic AWS or unlocked one,

could you hold off on flashing stuff to it when it arrives? I'm still curious about the rom on it.
[Streak 5 General] bradass420:
i need that rom too thinking its the only fix any one seen the cinci bell update.pkg
[Streak 5 General] Dsmwookie:
Yes I can. They are sending me another Cincy bell model. I refuse to accept an ATT one and run Edge. I could've bought one new for next to nothing if thats what I wanted.
[Streak 5 General] zancro:
In re: Recharging problem; I found out that in order to recharge my Streak I had to use only the Dell OEM USB AC adapter. In addition to the Dell OEM I have several AC adapters/USB cables (Blackberry, Motorola, Apple) none of which will supply the correct voltage/amperage for the Streak.

Coming over from the Shift forums for a question.

I've tried getting answers over in the Shift forums but no one can seem to help. (also i've done heavy googling)

OK my issue is the lights on the home, menu, back and search buttons are not working. They went out a couple of weeks ago and when I went to sprint they told me it was due to water damage (which is bs). The weird thing is, if I toggle the brightness on my phone then the lights come back on and stay on until I sleep/lock my phone. Also if I open the camera the lights come on. I know the evo and the Shift are similar devices so thought maybe someone over here might have some thoughts on the issue. I appreciate any help.. Don't ream me for being a Shifter :)

Thanks in advance

[EVO 4G General] crump84:
Yeah, I've tried switching several different ROMs, I've ran a RUU back to stock and Still no dice. When I talked to Sprint they told me it was water damage (it's never been in water) and I need a replacement. The only problem with that is all Shift are being shipped with Gingerbread and I'm not willing to lose root.
[EVO 4G General] lynyrd65:
That really stinks, you might have to live with it for a while.

It sounds like a hardware issue. Have you tried contacting htc?

Sent from my Macbook Wheel using Rotatalk
[EVO 4G General] crump84:
The only reason I was thinking it's not a hardware issue is because I can manually turn on the light when I toggle the screen brightness.

I may try and talk to HTC and see what they say. It's not a huge deal, I was just hoping someone had seen a similar problem.
[EVO 4G General] rudolph22:
I had the same issue earlier today and read that re-calibrating the screen fixes it. It seemed like a random fix but it actually worked for me. Try Settings > Display > G-Sensor calibration
[EVO 4G General] crump84:
Thanks for the suggestion but still no luck. I may be stuck with no lights until a new root method is found

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aca85:
Well i have never owned an x10 ,just flicked through it at the store ... so really can't comment on it's software capabilities,as for the Vid.Rec on the desire,it's really good,smooth and 720p :) [but depends on the ROM,on Sense roms u can record in 720p and on AOSP rom u can recond in 480p)

But from a technical point of view,the Desire has more memory,(a smaller but) better screen i'm and really pleased with it :) i have no regrets about buying it ...

But my recommendation would be buy a HTC Desire Hd ,cost a bit more then the Desire but it's totally worth it :D if not,go for the Desire

[Galaxy S II General] fusionknight:
Hi guys,

I picked up an SGSII from Expansys and it runs no problem on Fido up in Canada. I'm taking a trip down to the US next month and was wondering which of the big carriers in the states would run the SGSII. I figure AT&T would, but as the phone is quad-band, I'm not 100% sure if there are other national carriers that would do the trick.

Thanks!

FK
[Galaxy S II General] jlevy73:
Of the major US carriers, it will work on ATT and T-Mobile. It will only get 3g on AT&T as the SGS2 doesn't support TMO's 3g bands.
[Galaxy S II General] fusionknight:
Hmm. I'm a little confused. The wikipedia page for T-Mobile says that their 3G bands are 2100MHz and 1700MHz. The SGSII apparently has 2100MHz as one of the accepted frequencies (again according to wiki). How come 3G won't work on T-Mobile?

Presumably, the phone won't work on Verizon because, while the frequencies match, Verizon is running on CDMA and the SGSII only supports GSM. Right?

Thanks again!
[Galaxy S II General] Funk2641:
T-Mo US needs 1700 and 2100, not just 2100. Att uses 850 or 1900. 3G won't work on T-Mo
[Galaxy S II General] BarryH_GEG:
No matter what it says on paper, there's a couple of people here that have tried the phone on T-Mobile U.S and get EDGE speed downloads.

[Acer Iconia A500] Zen_Jackal:
Hi all,

I own an a500 and recently flew from Atlanta to San Juan; and the carrier offered wifi onboard.

Now, this is a paid service, and I decided to connect to check their prices on my tablet. While browsing the company's website (before I paid for anything) I see that my tablet informs me of a new email. After some snooping around, I realize that many of my apps, email, pulse and news360, for example, all connect to the internet and download 'stuff'. I even managed to send a handful of emails before the plane went in for landing and I had to disconnect.

This is happening again now while I'm on a cruise ship, where I haven't apid a cent for internet, but simply by connecting to the wifi network, my pulse RSS app updates and even downloads thumbnails.

I cannot, however, use the browser to browse the internet, or use google maps.

What interests me is firstly why my tablet is able to do such a thing (free internet), and secondly: Could I route all my internet traffic through the same ports/whatever that the apps are using in order to have free internet access?
[Acer Iconia A500] foxmeister:
Chances are that the Wifi provider is only blocking regular HTTP traffic (port 80) until you pay which is rather dumb!

If you use a VPN, you should be able to browse too.

Regards,

Dave
[Acer Iconia A500] Zen_Jackal:
Sorry, this might seem like a n00b question, but could you point me to a site or something that would explain how I would use a VPN to browse?
