Yup any Samsung partner place will take it. Just have a look on the Samsung website. They list "mobile phone repair partners" etc....

When I tried to hand in my German phone to a certain repair centre in the UK I was met with bureaucracy. Excuses such as "its different" "cant be serviced.. only in germany" were given.

Granted.. I made the mistake of telling them that my phone was bought in Germany.... its too much for most call centres and receptionist at repair centres to comprehend and digest... I just went to another one and kept my mouth shut.

Simply put... come in. Tell them it broke. Tell them that you bought it a while ago. If they ask for papers tell them you left it at home and that they should check the Serial number or something.
[Omnia 7 General] sasukee:
my problem is that non of the samsung center in my country selling windows phone 7 devices ..

they might say: we don't know what the hell is this !! we can't fix it !!!!!!

but I'll give it a try ..
[Omnia 7 General] VonCrisp:
The Samsung Repair Centres are usually just "partners" they usually fix all sorts of phone but also have a certificate from Samsung to repair their devices.

Should be on the website.

Sorry for the off-topic, please bear with me sasukee, hope you get your phone fixed...

@ VonCrisp:

I debranded by flashing the ''I8700XXKC1_XXKB2'' Rom and phone was updated to:

OS ver.: 7.0.7389.0

FW ver.: 2424.11.3.1

Radio ver.: 2424.11.2.2

Bootloader ver.: 5.3.0.4

Then I tried to update to 7.0.7392.0 via Zune, update failed at the 6/10 step.

I used the Samsung patch, updated fine to 7392 via Zune, but the phone version remained I8700XXKB2, not I8700XXKB3. Actually I've never heard of I8700XXKB3. Can you confirm that you 've got I8700XXKB3 phone version, and how didyou get that?
[Omnia 7 General] sasukee:
I went there today .. and like what I expected .. they can't fix it !!!!

they said : this device doesn't exist here ( our country ) so that they can't fix it ..

I'm really disappointing ... I don't know what to do ???

any help !!! any thoughts ???

I flashed my phone ..

my new PDA : 18700XXKC1

phone : 18700XXKB2

bootloader : 5.3.0.4

I did flash and while the phone flashing my phone stuck ( as usual ) in samsung logo ..

and I turn it off manually .. but now I have KC1

I'll give it a try and see where things going ..
[Omnia 7 General] sasukee:
OK, that's it ..

I'm gonna throw my phone at the wall and bury it ..

It's been worse and worse since I starting to flash my phone ..

the conclusion is : never buying anyting WITHOUT WARRANTY ..
[Omnia 7 General] OndraSter:
I bought mine Omnia without warranty :D. Well in theory I can always send it to Germany...

Don't you want to donate your device to "hacker" community to create "hardspl" ("hardeboot" since this is Samsung)? :P Omnia 7 should be hacking friendly, since there is JTAG port (should be) right below battery below the FCC sticker.

But this looks like there is something overheating inside... There is no proper cooling, it looks quite similar to HD2 and other Snapdragon SoC-ed chipsets. Usualy reflowing it with either hot air gun or (as some people do with GPUs) in oven could help, but for how long (I wouldn't risk the oven, this is way more sensitible part).
[Nook Color General] wpnyc2009:
I love my Nook! Even with my brand new HTC Inspire, I still clock a ton of time on NookColor.

Observations:

1. Lost Root briefly with CM nightly 133. Re-installed superuser with no problems and I am good to go.

2. The charging cord gets a hot recently. I have it plugged in overnight and get no charge recently. So, I jiggle the handle and "voila!" it begins charging.

3. When charged battery life is 6-8 hours with moderate use. 2-4 hours of streaming netflix and its dead. :(

4. Netflix streaiming is AWESOME! I see very little choppiness now.

5. It's still the machine to beat for 'value.' Once rooted, this thing is a beast. So keep your iPads or Acer 'whatevers' for now. HTC in a 10" might be the game changer we need to really challenge iPussy's hold on the 3G/4G tablet market.

6. I cannot get 'New" new market to show Movies tab. Since Netflix is the Queen ***** of all streaming (IMO) I donlt need it - I just want it so I can tell my Apple-eating punk ass friends I have it. :D

I thank the community of hackers, crackers, wannabes and lookie-loos for all your contributions to making the world a safer place for All. Cheers m8s!
[Nook Color General] votinh:
I wouldn't say "hackers" or "crackers" since they do illegally hack/crack the code.

Hold power button down for over 10 seconds to power down. - Did this work?

If yes, get back into apx mode and nvflash using prime 1.4 - Did this work?

If no to either, plug into pc and use ADB commands to reboot to recovery.

If you have the proper ROM zip file then flash. If not the mount SD and add that file.

wipe dalvik, data, cache, and then flash ROM.

Now that ATT Gingerbread OTA is out, any way to have Gingerbread on BELL Atrix phones or we have to wait until bell release their own OTA ?

Currently my phone is rooted but not unlocked. I am looking at the forum thread but it's mostly for AT&T phones.

So any ideas ?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] toughbax:
You can unlock your phone (pudding) and install any of the ROMs out there that use 2.3.4.

Just make sure you use one of the international kernels.

Other than that you are stuck waiting for the OTA

[Streak 5 General] Mackt22:
I just purchased my Dell Streak. It seems like an awesome phone, and It's unlocked and all. However, everytime I try to connect to the Bell Mobile Network, it says, Unable to connect to the network at this time. Please try again later.

I have my SIM card in properly, it tells me that my phone number is correct under the SIM Toolkit app & such.

PLEASE HELP ME. What do I do?
[Streak 5 General] SHildebrandt:
Bell Network Connection

I assume you have a data plan on the SIM card you're using? If that's not the problem, go to: Menu/Settings/Wireless & Network Settings/Mobile Networks and look at your cellular data APN settings (APN name, server settings, etc.). Make sure you have the correct APN name / settings in corresponding fields. I would tell you what they are, but my Streak is an unlocked version running on T-Mobile, so my APN settings won't work on your "Bell" network. I'm sure if you look around here on XDA, you can find the correct APN settings in another post.... Good Luck!
[Streak 5 General] Mackt22:
I did set the right APN settings, it still just wont connect.
[Streak 5 General] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
I am guessing you're in Canada? Bell Mobility is a CDMA phone provider. The Streak is a GSM device, thus the Streak cannot see CDMA networks. You need to be on Rogers or one of its subsidiary carriers for the Streak to work.
[Streak 5 General] Mackt22:
Okay but, others I know have the Streak on Bell in Canada.. So how does that work?

And it does see the bell network, it just says it cannot connect at this time. please try again later.
[Streak 5 General] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
Good question, and one I just asked in my FAQ on the difference between CDMA and GSM and why phones for one won't work on the other. From the sounds of things, Bell is switching over to GSM from CDMA, or they are employing a hybrid network. Those are the only ways I know of that a Streak can work on a CDMA carrier like Bell.

EDIT: They are employing a hybrid network according to their website and Wikipedia which went online in 2009.
[Streak 5 General] vn33:
OP ... am using unlocked Dell Streak from Rogers on Telus w/o any problem. Bell and Telus share each other's network so it shouldn't be an issue of the Streak being on Bell. I have a data plan with Telus, and even enjoys Netflix on my Streak.

The only suggestion is to check APN setting, and also network choice, make sure it is not set for GSM only but Automatic ...
[Fascinate General] lagbot7000:
Been lurking for close to a year, but first time posting, so my apologies if this is not the correct forum or location for this question. I would have posted in the Glitch kernel thread but I'm still stuck in the noob-lockout.

I'm running the latest CM7 with the latest, high-leakage Glitch kernel. I became suspicious after I "calibrated" my battery (charged to 100%, reset stats, drained to 0%) and noticed that my battery life was much better while in deep sleep, but with the screen on it was draining at almost 1% per minute. In deep sleep I will get somewhere between 2-5% drain per hour.

CPU Spy shows my frequency breakdown as 1000Mhz at ~10% and Deep Sleep at ~90% with all other frequencies at virtually 0% (this is with resetting the timers and running for a day).

I would think that even with the screen on, there will be moments when the CPU will be throttled down. Running SetCPU on previous roms, I noticed that when idling, the CPU speed would often drop to 100Mhz, but this doesn't seem to be happening with my setup.

I didn't notice any comments in the Glitch or CM7 threads regarding this phenomenon, so I'm wondering if it's something I failed to setup correctly or some other cause.
[Fascinate General] lagbot7000:
As an update, I've switched back to the stock CM7 kernel and it is properly throttling down now. 100Mhz is now showing a much higher percentage in CPU Spy.

I would really like to switch back to Glitch, but unless there's some solution it doesn't seem like it's worth the huge increase in battery usage.
[Fascinate General] gkirby11:
You must have a setting incorrect.

Being clocked at 1.2ghz (BFQ i/o and Smartass) CPU spy is telling me the following

1200Mhz - 4:03 - 0%

1000Mhz - 1:01 - 0%

800Mhz - 9:05 - 1%

400Mhz - 7:037 - 1%

200Mhz - 4:59 - 0%

100Mhz - 21:09 - 4%

Deep sleep - 7:40:15 - 90%

What Governor did you try?
[Fascinate General] lagbot7000:
I was using bfq with smartass.
[Fascinate General] Cota82:
I'm also using cm7 and tk-glitch v11 hl since yesterday.

Playing with settings right now, using pimp my cpu and cpu spy.

Questions:

-Do I have to enable the option "force minimal freq. when screen off''?

-After how many minutes does my sgs go into deep sleep mode?
[Fascinate General] lagbot7000:
Are you experiencing the same increased battery drain with the screen on?
[Fascinate General] skynet11:
1. Using SetCPU is asking for trouble (random reboots, etc). The Glitch thread OP says to use Voltage Control instead.

2. High Leakage = fewer problems for those with lower quality hardware build (yes, it varies from Fascinate to Fascinate - all Fascinates are not assembled equally), but poorer battery life. Low-leakage = better battery life, but you better hope your Fascinate was assembled well because if it wasn't, you'll have more fcs and freezes than on medium or high leakage.

3. There is no combination of governors, voltages, and schedulers that is the best for everyone - each combo will work better for some than for others :)

I hope this helps :)

Another Fascinating post by my XDA app...
[Fascinate General] lagbot7000:
I remember reading about the dangers of using SetCPU with this ROM, so I've only been using Voltage Control.

My problem doesn't seem related to the governor or scheduler, since each combination yields the same result.

The problem is that the CPU speed jumps to 1000Mhz as soon as the screen is turned on, and stays at 1000Mhz until it's turned off, which causes it to drop down into Deep Sleep. There is no in between, not with any combination of scheduler or governor, it's either full blast or nothing.
[Fascinate General] skynet11:
Try an overclock - train your phone to use something other than 1000 Mhz

Another Fascinating post by my XDA app...
[Fascinate General] lagbot7000:
I decided to restore back to DI01, and use the OTA updates to bring myself back up to ED05. I then reflashed CM7 and Glitch and this problem has gone away. Not quite sure what caused it, but it's running great now.

Running at a solid 1200Mhz with -50mV.
[Fascinate General] Cota82:
Yes still draining, locked up in 800 mhz cpu freq. (cpu spy) and no deep sleep mode. I'm going to reflash the kernel soon.

Something went wrong I guess (stucked in glitch bootscreen after flashing).

First cleaning scripts and flash the default cm7 kernel for my sgs to be sure.

It should work well according to a member in glitch sgs topic.

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darkonex:
1 person lied :p

I don't think I've ever bought any electronic device that was 100% perfect, don't believe they exist. Now perfect to some people may be lower than my standards but a 100% perfect device should have absolutely nothing about them that is annoying, flawed, etc and since humans aren't perfect and humans make these things there is no such think as a perfect one. I have light bleed (and I've heard all of them will to some extent) but it's not horrible, just in one spot at hte bottom right and it doesn't pop out unless on back blackground so it's forgiveable. I also have a dock that drains at 2%/hour when device is idle which sucks but not horrible, I mean I still get like 15 hours or more of solid use if using it consistantly and nothing touches that. The web browsers, all of them, are rather slow when compared to iPad browsers such as Mercury or Atomic Web Browser in both loading content and the typing is sluggish as heck in most browsers on Android. I do believe having flash though contributes to this because when I had the Playbook for a couple weeks it too was the same sluggish speed at browsing and typing. Again all of the Honeycomb devices will have this sluggish browsing so that right there proves there is no such thing as a perfect one :p

Don't get me wrong, I love my TF, it's great, but perfect, far from it and I don't ever expect to find a perfect device though hopefully they get better.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ~Rich~:
I agree that perfect is a matter of perception. Being a developer I would never expect everything to work the way I think it should.

Having said that, I didn't even know there any problems with the transformer until I read it in these forums complain. I have no light bleed problem, no bezel problem or anything that I have read about here. I have the occasional force close but that is just the OS and the Apps. Those will be improved as they are still getting better.

I also agree with the fact that most people complain and don't praise. In sales, we called it the 7 to 1 rule. A person with a bad experience will likely tell 7 people about how bad the experience was. However, a person with a great experience will only usually tell 1 person.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brando56894:
Light bleed, creaky bezel. After 5 weeks it decided it wants to charge extremely slow (at the rate of ~1% per 30 minutes), Asus said it may because of the firmware update to 11 and that I should drain the battery to see if that fixes it.

Zero complaints here either as far as the device is concerned. I do have some issues with apps I enjoy on my phone not being quite tablet compatible yet but that has nothing to do with the device itself. Some of the apps have beta versions for tablets and I know the situation will improve.

I've only had my B6O for a few days, now and all I notice is some very minor lightbleed along the bottom of the device. It's only noticeable when the screen is completely black and if it's not like dead pixels where it can inflame, then I am quite happy with my Transformer :).
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goodintentions:
You haven't spoken to an ipad and ipad 2 user have you? To them, the ipads are perfect.

Just this morning, I was talking with an ipad user. We were comparing tablets. I told him everything about the transformer, which he had never even heard of. I showed him my dock and told him I had just put a 500 gb hdd in there. He then started complaining that my dock only had 1 usb port. I had to tell him that there are in fact 2 ports. he then complained that my transformer couldn't be connected to the tv for mirrored output. Again, I had to show him my hdmi port. He then complained I only had 16 gb because his was a 32 gb model. I had to remind him that I just put in a 500 gb hdd in the dock.

It was obvious that he was desperately trying to find flaws in my tablet to uphold the belief that his ipad was an all perfect device.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goodintentions:
ALL IPS screen devices have light bleeds. Some are noticeable and some are not. Any ipad user who tells you his ipad does not have light bleed is a damn liar. ALL ipad 2 have light bleeds to some degree.

This is why apple is moving away from IPS screen for the ipad 3.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ranklepup:
My transformer has a small amount of light bleed at the bottom left, but like others it is almost irrelevant. That is unless I'm in a completely dark room, brightness up all the way and on a black background.

My dock I purchased about 4 days ago is absolutely perfect. The only bug I noticed was when using the mouse pointer with the touchpad switching screens lagged a bit, but if I used the circular pointer switching home screens is smooth.

I am also an experienced rooter/bricker/unbricker/flasher and took a few tries to understand how to get into recovery. I understand completely now but just use the revolver App to boot into recovery :)
