replacement of ur phone

Hi

believe me .. this country doesnt have a law which protects buyer's money

all this goverment and country's laws can do is protect big multinational companies like samsung's interests.

These peope have a rule about 4 days replacement.

I bought a SGS2 which had a scratch on the body. I used it for about 15 days and did the following to get mine replaced :)

Ill give u a suggestion :-

1) goto the shop whom u bought it from. Explain to him that your money is at stake. what he can do is issue you a current dated bill for the same IMEI number handset. The shopkeeper can do this (he can issue you a bill and immidiately cancel it in his records). My dealer does this! trust me. You have to convince your dealer.

2) go to samsung customer care ( a different one if possible but even if its the same one they cant do ****) actually dont go personally .. send someone else

3) tell them you bought the handset yesterday or day before (according to the bill) and tell them they BETTER replace it or ull complain to samsung korea since your handset is BRAND NEW according to the bill ;)

4) They will HAVE to change it for u.

try it buddy

believe me ... if u cant BEAT em... JOIN em

good luck

[Galaxy S II General] sumeshd:
Must tell everyone who has been telling about samsung serv. Tat it is crap and all are wrong..or samsung has totally great feedback towards sgs2..my handset went for screen change..the day I applied and the 2nd day serv center got mail frm noida saying to send the handset..it went on Wednesday and on Saturday the call was closed and screen changed and cell dispatched from noida and I got it in my hands on Monday..

The best service from any company.

Previously my xperia x10 died and se guys took 1.5 months to change its ic..the crappiest..

Well done samsung..keep it up..

::happy::
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
Nice...Congrats man ...you got new one or they just fixed and sent it?
[Galaxy S II General] sumeshd:
They replaced screen and sent it..but done all that in just 4 days..

The best service and I am merely impressed by them..
[Galaxy S II General] ithehappy:
Thanks for your bold comment mate. That is indeed the actual truth, sadly.
[Galaxy S II General] arvindm:
Well am glad that got sorted out. But just for info, Samsung will replace the phone completely only if it's within 4 days of purchase. Within those 4 days it is treated as a DOA piece (Dead On Arrival). After that they can only service it. This is not the case just with the service center you went to. It's the way it is with Samsung in India.

So like someone said above, if any of you have a similar problem the best thing to do is to go back to the shop you bought it from and get a new bill with a changed date.

Cheers!
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
Nice :) :)

[HTC Desire S] Deleted member 1919717:
Hi Guys,

I used my Desire S since some months, and syncing with Outlook was workins perfect for contacts and calendar.

but since some weeks, the syncing of contacts is not working any more.

Is there any way to re-initialize this sync again? On WM I always choose an option to sync it once in just one direction, e.g. PC-> phone to recover such an issue, but there is no option I found in HTC Sync to recover from this state?

Any ideas?

Thanks, GeScha

PS: I haven't found a thread covering this in Desire S section by search. So sorry for issuing a new thread if there is already one somewhere. Just let me know where it might be.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] pingvinen:
Hi

My problem is that Mobile AP has stopped working. I have never had any problem with it before, but after the last re-flash, I cant get it to work.

I am back on stock Samsung 2.3.4, radio JVQ and a kernel Semaphore_JVQ_1.3.0 (with root).

When I enable the mobile AP, I can see a brief message "Turning on..." immediately followed by "Error" as service status. I should mention that normal Wifi access works without any problems whatsoever. It is only the Mobile AP that has gone crazy. Maybe it is connected to the specific kernel, so I will also try in the kernel specific thread.

Any helpful hints are most welcome!

Pingvinen (the Penguin)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] slaphead20:
Check your AP settings, they may have got wiped
[Galaxy S I9000 General] pingvinen:
No, the AP settings are fine. Mobile networking and wifi works as it should. But I found the source of the problem. The Semaphore kernel that I installed have issues with Tethering. The dev has supplied a script for net_filter that have to be added to the startup directory. Too much hassle for me right now, so I switched to another kernel (Speedmod), which is amazingly easy compared to installed an init script, and now tethering works again.

[Acer Iconia A500] atipon:
Acer Thailand facebook page recently states that A500 with build number below 1.126 in Thailand will not get 3.1 OTA update from Acer. :mad::mad: Unfortunately mine is 1.016.04 and never got ANY OTA update.

Anyone can confirm this is true in other country? I personally do not quite believe Acer Thailand support.
[Acer Iconia A500] sanaell:
and why you not believe this

don't worry you can get the update (but I don't get why they speak about the 16GB, is there anything different with the 32GB or they expect that the 32GB should already get the OTA 139.04)

call this

02-685-4311

02-685-4355

or

fax at

02-254-9763

ask them directly :D

chok dee :D
[Acer Iconia A500] atipon:
I just wonder why they did not mention about this at first place (I bought this for months). Just want to make sure that this is also the same for other country.
[Acer Iconia A500] FloatingFatMan:
I wouldn't believe this news for second...
[Acer Iconia A500] sanaell:
I think we don't ask you what you believe dude.

Taiwan said same about the update OTA and version under 126.0x

Call our customer service with the number I gave you, Acer have good customer service in our country brother.
[Acer Iconia A500] atipon:
nice to know this is an official news.

It's funny that I hit an update button million times for nothing.:D
[Acer Iconia A500] FloatingFatMan:
Unless it's posted on their official website, it's not official news. It's just something some guy on the internet said.

Oh, and op? If this IS true, then the last thing you can claim is that you get good customer service from Acer in your country, coz you don't.
[Acer Iconia A500] atipon:
You're right. I'm so disappointed with their service. Now just wait them to release an update.zip for official 3.1. In the meantime, relax and enjoy xda rom, thanks xda guys!!
[Acer Iconia A500] sanaell:
first it's official news from ACER Thailand so don't speak about what you doesn't know.

secondly the custormer service of acer is really good and care in thailand, maybe not in england so please, you come in thailand, you go to customer service and you will be able to compare or judge

thirdly what the hell are you answering like this?

Atipon, did you call them ? if you are free go on saturday to pantip plaza pratunam, second or third floor (if you come from the bridge you arrive directly on the good floor) then you told them. they will help you as they helped me out.

read the private message box, I send you a message with more information you will see about trust :D
[Acer Iconia A500] tontonjicy:
no update!

Hi,

I live in France and I bought the tablet to England via the Internet on June 3 .When I used for the first time, it offered an updated version ,Acer_A500_1.126.03_com3_gen1 and nothing since. I think I have a Chinese version because I have done a factory restore and was in Chinese.

Is it possible to change the version to have a French version? and why I did not update OTA version 3.1?

Thank you for the answers.

Excuse my bad english.

:mad:
[Acer Iconia A500] Interested_Newb:
The customer service in England is very good, the problem is you phone up and get a call centre in India !!! Once you get past the Indian call centre and talk to someone in England you do get results.

With updates not happening to tablets I am told that the UUID number must be on the database, if it is not then you need to get it added, this means phoning up Acer.

I am also told that if you have "rooted" (aka hacked) your Iconia tablet then you are no longer covered under warranty so be warned !
[Acer Iconia A500] Interested_Newb:
There is a new release of operating system for the Android Iconia Tablet, I know of two versions so far, the original a lot were shipped with and the month old or so updated version. I shall get the numbers of the versions tomorrow and post them so you can compare.

[Acer Iconia A500] vari9:
Wow.....that's so great.......I call up acer customer care here in india and they say they don't know anything about the update.....they say it might take a month for indian users to get 3.1....those idiots don't know that the indian users already got the update.......they know nothing about a500.........even the online chat service is rubbish......I have to go to the us site chat online....explain them everything why I contacted them instead of the us site and then ask my questions!
[Acer Iconia A500] Interested_Newb:
android version 3.01

Kernel version 2.6.36.3

Build number acer_a500_1.1309.05_com_gen1

Installed and updated, that's whats in the UK.
[Acer Iconia A500] sanaell:
so we are really lucky in thailand because we can go to the customer care center directly, and we not get an indian call center... since we speak thai that will be crazy.

and better root a device will not broke our warranty that i know because it is the customer service acer care told me in person.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shadowofdarkness:
As a new Google+ invitee I am having the old trouble of finding my Facebook friends on it. Since FB seems to be fighting access by changing the API and making the info into images, but our phones still get good data when syncing to our contacts.

Could we export the info to a CSV file from whatever database it is in on the phone?

I already tried the built in exporter in the phone app but in only exports the Google contacts.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shadowofdarkness:
After more searching I found that I am not the first to think of this and was able to find a shell script that does what I want. With the limitation that no names get exported just a csv file that lists email and phone numbers.

But that is enough to import and have Google+ search for any matches.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gwabell:
Could you share the script solution that you found? I want to do the same, though not for Google+, I'm just frustrated at Facebook contacts not being properly integrated into my Google contacts and want to have one, definitive contact list (ie Google).

Also if anybody has a solution that includes contact names that would certainly make it easier for auto-merging with existing contacts.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cfsimm2004:

*Error:unable to find file<.\nv_data.bin> Then it lists this:

I gave my Dad my old blackstone when my Desore turned up.

He has winged that he can't get the marketplace and about all those general WinMo issues that people have (it dead etc)

I can't find a clear message on the status of NANDROID for blackstone.

TIAD8s site has NAND versions that are missing bluetooth or other funcitons

It appears there are basic functions that are lost according which kernal is being run.

I'm willing to do one completely convoluted install just to get Froyo style on my dads phone but only once. I never have trouble with new flashing procedures (slow and steady wins the race) but I don't want to hand him back the phone broken especially as he uses hands free in the car

So - can anyone say categorically that a NAND version work fully?
[Touch HD General] Eodun:
Categorically: Not yet. Wondering if ever...
[Touch HD General] teti77:

though it's good to try, we don't know whether he really works on it as he start many threads to other device besieds HD.
[Touch HD General] olly230:
Desore was a proper typo, I'll put my hands up to that :)
[Touch HD General] MietasSR:
Tiad8's just kidding us, it will send to test team files from NVIDIA Tegra device. Only RUU_signed is working, but I think it's my modded LK Bootloader from Rhodium (with modified mtype). Something's wrong with this nand.

I have runned this but touchscreen not working properly and I don't have GSM.
[Touch HD General] ThaiDai:
I thought you were part of his developer team because he now give credits to you for your ruu and recovery.img (at last he ist starting to do this: giving credits) in the NAND download post.

With your post here I had to smile a little: now your name is connected to the "null nands" for many consumers in tiad8's forum. Even I thought you're part of it now and that's why I tried the build yesterday again: Boot partition to small and Kernel not working.

I think now it's getting to the critical point in the NAND experiments: correct or good partition sizes for NAND (some members there startet to change partition values in the image files with a hex editor) and more important: building a working kernel with modules for Blackstone NAND.

Until now all experiments reached a few preparing goals: getting a working .nbh for starting into fastboot, getting a recovery.img for a working CWM etc.

But now (if I am completely wrong please correct me, I really want to know) you have to change partition and ram parameters in clk and hope you will spare the protected parts.

And after that: Kernel and Modules for Blackstone on Nand. I am starting to believe here would be the real point for developers.

I started to build Kernel and Modules, a Boot Environment (initrdgz) from git and packed them with changed parameters in a Tinboot-Package. I can flash with the .nbh, I can boot, I got a lot of errors in init first, but I succeeded in running and loading the kernel, I get access to the changed mtd partitions etc. Debugging on Blackstone with Echo "" ist quite funny.

I got stuck when I tried to cp files from SD card to the /system partition (which is mounted r/w) - I can cp files from / to /system anyway. Big ?? for me. But I like to play with it a little more, because I learned a lot.

Hi,

I am trying to enable 3G on my phone, it gives 3 options for network mode as GSM/WCDMA (Auto mode), GSM only and WCDMA only. There is no option for HSDPA. I have checked in phone spesification that it has got HSDPA. Could you please clear my doubts why HSDPA has not been listed in network mode for my phone? or It is by default there for galaxy s2.

Thanks in advance...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JupiterdroidXDA:
WCDMA is HSDPA:)

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] K.R.:
But

1. WCDMA is commonly referred to as 3G, while HSDPA is commonly referred to as 3.5G.

2. HSDPA provides much higher data rates compared to WCDMA.

3. HSDPA has lower latency times compared to WCDMA.

4. HSDPA has Fast Packet Scheduling and AMC, features that are absent in WCDMA.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JupiterdroidXDA:
Its HSDPA, they just call the mode WCDMA on android phones, if you see a H, it means your running HSDPA and getting HSDPA speeds, WCDMA is just the name of the mode on android phones which enables you to receive HSDPA:)
