[T-Mobile LG G2x] ThC23:
Let me start of by blaming myself for this incident.

I should of checked the package before I signed for it and let the UPS driver go.

Today my replacement was delivered and all I got was an empty box.

Upon delivery I was watching my niece and didn't think twice about it, I grabbed the box signed for it and went to check on her.

Afterwards I went to check out the replacement only to find out the box was tampered with and there was nothing inside.

I immediately called T-Mobile to make them aware of the situation.

They said they will investigate the situation and get back to me.

At this point I'm not sure what's gonna happen, I hope I don't get charged for it, but either way it will be a learning experience for me.

I have read about people going through this just never thought it would happen to me.

Please anyone else getting a replacement phone

** Check your UPS package **

Before you sign for it.

If anyone else had this happen to them I would like to know what happened at the end?

Did you end up paying?

Did you also called UPS?

The Tmo rep told me no, but should I call them anyways?

....
[T-Mobile LG G2x] dAii7:
You should call UPS, this happened to me but not with a phone so I called UPS because I received an empty box
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Final View:
My idiot UPS guy never lets me open the box until I sign for it. I get alot of big packages, and he doesn't stay and wait for me to open them. I'm afraid something like this will happen to me in the future :L

Anyways... Good luck man. Hope you don't have to pay for the phone.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] OuncE718:
T-Mobile will definitely issue you another G2x. When they say they are investigating all they are doing is waiting for someone to pop a sim card into the reported stolen phone. They are making sure that you don't have the phone so the minute someone else uses the phone then you will receive a call back.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ThC23:
Yes, they were going to, but I no longer needed it! So I told them not to send me another one.

You see I was stuck on the S/W screen like many so I went ahead and requested a replacement.

The next day I got it running again and I called T-Mobile to cancel the order, but was told it was too late.

They told me to either send replacement back or my original phone.

I have some screen bleed on this one and I was going to see if my replacement was better.

Guess I'll never know now.

....
[T-Mobile LG G2x] player911:
Sounds fishy. You ordered a replacement, had it stolen, then didn't need another. Lol

Not saying your lying but giving you my 3rd person view.

I did the same thing except I returned the placement. The one I got has nasty screen bleed and by the time I got mine, I already had mine fixed.

Shouldn't be no big thing but who's to say you didn't take the phone, sit on it for a while, then sell it?

Basically be careful with your story so you don't end up eating the cost of the other one.

I had a similar story where they dropped it off at the empty house next door where it sat for a week. I called and reported it stolen but they said it was delivered and I went looking for it. T-Mobile seemed as though they were going to charge me for the replacement until I found it. I told them what happened and had to PAY to send it back.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] OuncE718:
I agree his story does sound fishy, but you never know. He could be telling the God honest truth. If it was me I would of let them send another phone because T-Mobile keeps notes of everything and they might have him down for suspicious activity.

Also in your case I honestly would of never let T-Mobile know I found the phone next door at an abandoned house. These two stories would raise flags. I'm not calling any of you liars, I'm just looking from the outside in and from where I stand the stories are sort of hard to believe. I hope you guys understand.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ThC23:
Yeah, it does sound fishy, but I'm telling the truth!

Why would I bother lying on here there nothing for me to gain,

I just want to make people aware of my situation so it don't happen to anyone else.

Tmo has everything on record, including when I tried to cancel it!

I could of had them ship me another one, but at this point didn't feel like possibly going through the same thing again.

But it is what it is, I wish I had the handset for resell and this was all made up. Unfortunately it's not, and I just might have to pay for it.

It's a mistake I might have to pay for and definitely learn from.

I just hope Tmo can somehow lock the serial number so that handset can't be used.

....
[T-Mobile LG G2x] OuncE718:
I don't think you lying cause like you say what can you possibly gain by lying to us (the people of XDA)? As long as you never put your sim card in the phone of question then you will not be charged at all. T-Mobile won't lock the phone because at the end of the day they still get paid for that phone through insurance and because whoever is using that phone most likely is using it on T-Mobile service so they will continue to get paid one way or the other.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ickster:
To me this is like your luggage getting stolen at the airlines. I don't understand how the employees get away with it. They can follow packages and luggage every step of the way. How is it that they can't figure out which employees are stealing?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] OuncE718:
I'm pretty sure they have an idea, but without solid proof they can not even accuse anyone of stealing since its the law. All they would do is probably set them up and hope they take the bait. I would definitely assume its UPS stealing it rather than T-Mobile because they weigh the boxes before they ship and I would think UPS would question why the package weighs the same as an empty box and possibly take note of it since they are partnering with a major company (T-Mobile).
[T-Mobile LG G2x] smashpunks:
How can you not feel the weight difference? Is know right away that the phone is missing...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] TechnoHippie:
ha yeah I had this problem. 4 times in a freakn row I had this problem - yes that's right I got 4 empty boxes delivered from UPS. I jacked around with them for 2 months about this as matter of fact. My end result was the 5th time there was actually a damn phone in the box - however the whole thing (among many other problems) pissed me off so bad I canceled my contract. My theory is that someone at one of the UPS hubs was stealing the phones. Talked to several people at UPS about it and probably 25+ people at t-mobile about it.

In my case, after the 1st empty box, I had a friend make a video of the UPS guy handing me the box, and then me opening an empty box so there was no "you lie" excuse from t-mobile. The phones were being delivered to my office via a UPS driver we see 3 times a day here (we do lot of biz with them) - so either t-mobile was sending empty boxes or some UPS employee was ripping them off.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ThC23:
Honestly when you're watching a 3 yr. old little girl and shes running around the last thing you're worried about is the weight of the box.

Like I said I blame myself for not paying more attention, but when it's never happened to you and you've had several replacements delivered you don't think nothing of it.

....
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ThC23:
This was my main concern, which is why I opted out of getting another replacement, I know the culprit is still out there and it could happen again, with my luck.

But wow 4 times, that sucks.

....
[T-Mobile LG G2x] OuncE718:
Not that you said it, but just for the record it can also be the package handler (the person who loads the truck) stealing it instead of the driver. I had a friend who used to work as a package handler and his thieving ass would steal the phones until one day he was caught.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Seanathan:
I'm sorry this happened to you. I'm in charge of the shipping department for a well known retailer and we have issues more than I would care for with UPS. What usually happens is somewhere in their hub someone cuts opens the box, opens the box the product is in, steals the item, puts the empty product box back in the shipping box, and then tapes the box up. Nobody finds out until it reaches the destination.

I hope that perhaps T-Mobile messed up and that you can get your replacement phone quickly.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] blestsol:
I've honestly never been home for my phone deliveries.

Hopefully this never happens to me because they leave mine in my bushes.:(
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ThC23:
When I had my Vibrant replacements they would just leave them by the door and now with the G2X Ive had to sign for both replacements.

I guess it depends on driver.

....
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jcbofkc:
The op story sounds more legit than the kid who received four empty boxes and did not check any of them or make better plans for shipping after the first three turned up empty. At least the op is aware.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] MRpeabodyia:
I've not had a problem with UPS and replacement phones. However, this past Friday I had two tablets, a TF and Galaxy, delivered via UPS from staples. Both were left on my steps after I was assured they would require a signature. I plan on calling today. I couldn't believe they left 700$ in product on the steps for everyone to see.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Seanathan:
For everyone above, when you look at the UPS label at the bottom you should see Billing P/P, then it should say either Signature Required, or Adult Signature required. If you don't see that then when T-Mobile created the label they didn't select signature required. Meaning, the UPS driver does not need to collect a signature on the package and may leave it without one.

That's the easiest way to tell who to blame for packages being left at the door. If it does say Signature Required and you didn't sign for it, the driver can get in a lot of trouble.

Can anyone tell me if I can delete files from my sdcard that start with a dot, as in .adobe? What other files can I delete without crashing my system? I'm running CM7 and the current nightly.

Thanks!
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gotsflat4love:
Do you have a mac? If you do and transfer files from it to the phone you will get duplicate files. Usually .(insert file name here) is a copy. When I transfer roms from my mac to the phone. I always have a duplicate. Yes you can delete the .(files) and you'll be fine. I always have:

.trashes

.android_secure

.downloadTemp

And dont delete them becuase I feel they are necessary.

If you dont have a mac I dont know.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] viskon:
So I got the HDMI cable from electroniccrap.com. I have a 720p TV and I only get a blank screen with no sound when I connect my gtab to the TV. However, I do know the gtab is detecting the HDMI cable because the sound from the gtab goes out when the cable is plugged in. I suspect the TV is not capable of handling 1080p signals. Is there a way to downgrade the signal to 720p ?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] juanaraya92679:
Sounds silly but wiggle your cable, i thought mine wasn't working but the cable for some reason just needed a little nudge and it started displaying the video.

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aabbondanza:
No, Tegra2s are set in hardware to output 1080p (unless you want to buy additonal hardware like a scan rate converter...(costly)
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mike_ekim:
HAve you tried it on another TV, or tried anpther 1080p input to your TV?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] viskon:
I took the advice from one of the posts above and wiggled the cable here and there. I must have tried for at least 3 hours. Guess what? The cable works only when I hold it at a certain angle , pulled upwards and to the right. I immediately lose the image when I let go.

I sent the cable back for a replacement.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] juanaraya92679:
Glad that worked out for ya. :) i still have to send my cable back. Good luck with your new cable.

[Eee Pad Transformer General] knoxploration:
So I've had the Transformer update for about 20 hours now, which has given me time to play with it. The new circular cursor for the touchpad isn't a good design, but I can now see what they were trying to do, as they also use it to indicate touch and multitouch by filling the center of the circle with a dot for a single touch, and adding a second dot for multitouch. What they need to do is add a crosshair to indicate the exact click zone at the center of the circle.

An interesting side effect of the change, though, is that you can now very easily test crosstalk when using multitouch on the touchpad, and the result is NOT good on my B5O dock. I'd guess this is why many folks are reporting problems with multitouch zooming instead of scrolling or vice versa, etc.

To test: Touch the pad at right center with one finger. Move your other finger up and down the left-hand end of the touchpad without moving the other finger. Notice that not only does the left-hand white dot on the screen move, but the other dot also moves a LOT, when it should be staying still. I find it easiest to do this test in an app that doesn't support pinch zoom / scroll and has a dark background, so your eye isn't distracted by motion. For example, Moboplayer makes it easy to see.

Do the same thing again, but with one finger at top center of the pad, and the other at bottom center. If anything, the result seems even worse, to me. Even placing your fingers as far apart as possible at opposite corners of the pad, movement of one finger affects the other significantly. In some situations, it's actually possible to make the stationary finger's dot move exactly the same distance as the dot for the finger that actually moved.

I'm hoping that this is just a software issue that can be fixed in future firmware, but the logical side of me thinks this is more likely a hardware issue, and quite likely one that explains why they never offered pinch zoom until now, as they've found it tricky to try and work around and filter out the garbage data from the touchpad as much as possible.

I'd be interested to know whether the latest B7O docks show this problem too, or if it is improved at all.
