hmmm, well since i work at a sprint repair center, i'll just give you my personal opinion, if you brought to me, i would say it's either physically cracked or liquid damage of some kind, but i would have someone else confirm it, but, just take it to your local repair center and keep your fingers crossed it's covered if not, hey, a deductible for an insurance claim is still a lot cheaper $600
[Motorola Photon 4G] plmiller0905:
I had an issue similar to this with my evo 4g. I took it to the sprint store store and they replaced it the screen. They said it was pressure points on the screen. I have a thread posted on the evo 4g forums general section, cause just like you i was wondering if anyone knew what was wrong with. Must people said water damage...but i take good care of phones and never put them near any liquids.

So when u get a chance, search the evo 4g general forum...check out the pics of my screen and see if they're similar.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Bigjim1488:
I'll have to take a look for this. It's definitely not water damage, I have never seen anything like this before and I have had a bunch of smart phones.
[Motorola Photon 4G] flawlessbmxr:
not sure if i agree so much with the liquid damage (but obviously it's difficult to know because it's a picture). It seems as if it is a pressure point like it was in your pocket. me being a tech i have no access to photon screens at all. so depending on how smart the tech you speak to is, it could go either through TEP or he/she would just swap it out.
[Motorola Photon 4G] M@XLOL:
[off topic] your username reminds me of halo 2[/off topic]
[Motorola Photon 4G] Bigjim1488:
I hope they do help me out on this. I always treat my phones well and after this it will never be in my pocket again. I just will cross my fingers that they fix it for me and don't tell me I have to go through insurance and throw me a $100 referb
[Motorola Photon 4G] Bigjim1488:
First sprint store said it's not repairable and they didn't know what it was. Said I should contact Motorola. I guess it's off to the next one.
[Motorola Photon 4G] kennypow3rs:
This is why i ALWAYS use a screen protector....never know what kind of weird ish can happen.
[Motorola Photon 4G] mrinehart93:
If it is a pressure-related issue, a screen protector won't prevent that from happening :P

:D That's what I'm here for!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] mrdonbonjovi:
Just got a white one. Thanks for the heads up. I was about to spend 100$ more at Best Buy. I knew there was gonna be a better deal around.

Any differences besides packaging of a refurb and new?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] dreadnatty08:
Man, I was just calling in to Customer Service about a busted screen and was told it'd be about $350-$400 to get it fixed :mad:

We really love our tab but after throwing down for a Bionic, I'm not sure I can pony for another 10.1.

I live in EU and had the wifi calling FC all the time with cm7.

I need 10 posts to be able to post in devs section.

Solution is installing the file in the aosp/cm7 rom thread made by xborder56. Flashed it via cwm and no FC since!

Hope it helps some out there. This thread could be deleted at put into the cm7 guide thread.
[HTC Sensation] persiansown:
Or you could just delete the wifi calling APK. MS-blahbalhbalh.apk from /system/app/ like I posted in the thread. *shrug*

What I did :)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lcsboy:
I think that most of customized ROM support ext4 partition and release A2SD/CM7/A2E version.

And many apps or data are moved to /sd-ext.

Is there any good backup app or Recovery can backup /sd-ext partition and save to sdcard?

Sometimes I don't want to recovery all ROM and do restore data/apps things again and again.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scottnet:
Use ROM Manager, which could backup sd-ext individually.

But this function only shown in Premium version.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asestar:
Correct me if i'm wrong, but doesnt Recovery menu offer that function? (Backup and restore menu)

I use the recovery menu that was flashed by RomManager (2.5.0.7 or something), and it is able to do a full backup (aka nandroid backup? I'm new so not sure about terms)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MatDrOiD:
Do not use rom manager. It carts more problems than out solves.

Yes, every recovery should have this offer.

TouchPaled from Oxygen with Transparent XDA App
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asestar:
The way I backup is following:

1st step:

Titanium Backup. Use this to backup all my app/data/settings.

2nd step:

Set up Google Backup if supported (that way Market knows what apps i had and starts installing them after a wipe) Does not always work however, hence the step1.

3rd step:

Reboot phone into recovery menu, "backup and restore > Backup". This backs up following: system, rom, ext partition (if any) and also recovery/bootloader.

Using these steps, i can restore only my apps/settings (step 1) on a new rom or do a complete restore if something doesnt work right (step 3). Step 2 is handy If i want a fresh start but it doesnt always work right.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andQlimax:
4rd step:

after the backup with the step 3, u can go in the advanced restore menu, and restore only the partition u want..for example restore only the sd-ext (as the OP was asking)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lcsboy:
Thanks for your information.

No matter ROM manager or new Recovery, the problem is to support /sd-ext backup/restore especially I always format to ext4.

I installed ROM manager once, but it can not backup/resotre my ext4 partiton.

It might be 2 month ago, and I removed ROM manager.

Did anyone have the experience to backup/resotre ext4 and which Recovery version?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sinhumane:
i hope someone can help.... just got my bolt back together, activated it at verizon and now all i have is 1x... decided to use revolutionary to try and gain s-off to try a different radio... lo and behold the device will charge via usb, but not connect to the computer. so i pulled it apart again and inspected the board... perfect. no signs of damage, no water, nothing.....

back together it went, this time my board in my wifes housing (just in case the antennae were goofed... ya never know) hers has full 4g... mine... 1x... :mad:

so... rebooted into bootloader (forgot you had to have s-off to flash radio files, moving on from that) and selected hboot usb... and whaddya know... my computer recognizes it.. for a split second, calls it an unknown device and says noway to drivers (i have hboot drivers and such, have used it to root 3 or four bolts so far...)

now, i'm at a loss. customer support claims to have done everything in their power, my sim is correct, and is reporting my correct imei to verizon...

my thought is that it is software related, seeing as how it will recognize usb in bootloader mode, but nowhere else... and that the radio file is preventing it from getting proper signal.

also, her sim gets 1x only in my phone, and mine gets 4g in hers. and i am on old skool software 1.12.605.6... but the upgrade is forcing me to use 1x... and i would love to have it in this century...

please please please halp. i have exactly three internets to award to the solver of this puzzle... GOGOGOGO!!!! :)
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sinhumane:
got the software update to take last night through wifi finally... but still no bueno.

guess its back to bugging customer support....

[Galaxy Tab General] vegett0:
good price but note that it is a refurb when considering your purchase
[Galaxy Tab General] bobthesalesclerk:
I wanted one of these when they first came out. Beautiful tablet screen wise but no USB port was a deal breaker.

[Galaxy Tab General] Akulamenuri:
That's not a bad price but i'm going to wait for the Amazon tablet.
[Galaxy Tab General] cromag.rickman:
Holy cow what a deal! I'm still trying to convince myself that I would actually use a tablet.
[Galaxy Tab General] Bxsteez:
Did anyone order this galaxy tab 10.1? I ordered on the 14th and it still hasn't been shipped.
[Galaxy Tab General] ayong chia:
Is this website trusted? anybody get item from this web before?
[Galaxy Tab General] jerseypilot:
I ordered one around 1am est the day of the sale and still no shipment. I hear this company can take up to 2 weeks to ship out a product. From what i hear the company takes orders first. Then they order the stock for the number of orders they had. It seems like they dont have the product on hand before they sell it which is a really bad practice. You cant really short sell in the retail industry.

If i dont get a shipping notofication by Wens i will be calling them. Ill update this thread if my Tab 10.1 ships.
[Galaxy Tab General] madgalaxy:
I ordered one as well and no shipping information. Waiting till end of week before I contact them. Although they did charge my paypal account fast!
[Galaxy Tab General] Bxsteez:
Yea that is kinda what pisses me off about this company. You are quick to take my money but you aren't quick to send the product. That to me is just foul. I already sent them an email asking about my purchase. I don't even know if i'm gonna get a cancelation because they are out of stock.
[Galaxy Tab General] jerseypilot:
Aight. Let us know if you get a response.

In their defense they have a policy to ship within 6 business days. After today 9/20 its only been 4 business days. Which is why im gonna call on Fri if they dont ship.

On the BBB there arent too many complaints. Woot actually has a lower business rating than dailysteals. And ive yet to have a problem with woot. So idk

I get how slow shipment times can piss someone off. Im spoiled and have amazon prime so im used to recieving things a day after ordering :D

crossing my fingers
[Galaxy Tab General] Bxsteez:
Sadly I didn't read that before i bought it. If i had i would've just bought one on ebay. I'm not too concerned with waiting but i'm more fearful of an email 6 days later saying oops we were out of stock when you ordered. That will piss me off to no end.
[Galaxy Tab General] jerseypilot:
Well i bought it because the price was good. The wait isnt bad as long as it ships this week.

However in my excitement i went over to the tab 10.1 forum and i noticed that the 10.1 has a high percentage of users reporting newton rings. So now im a bit upset, with my luck the tab i get will have this problem.

I love my galaxy tab 7 i hope ill love this 10.1
[Galaxy Tab General] carden12:
really very cheap
[Galaxy Tab General] mcfanman:
Hi, new member today! I'm in the same boat in regards to patiently waiting for my 10.1 to ship from Daily Steals. When I ordered it, I completely missed the part where it said, "up to 6 business days before it ships". I had a refurb 32gb on order from Fry's but cancelled it when I saw this one.

I've called, emailed and chatted with Daily Steals and I've gotten the same canned response. As I explained to them, I can understand waiting 1-2 weeks for a $10 or $20 item but to go 5 or 6 days with no updates on a $350 tablet is inexcusable.

The other thing that would be helpful, is having a message board on their site like WOOT. This would alleviate a lot of anxiety when waiting.

---------- Post added at 10:10 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:46 AM ----------

Update. Live Chat is a complete waste of time with Daily Steals. The only thing they could/would tell me is that it would ship within a day or two. :confused:
[Galaxy Tab General] mcfanman:
Beach Camera via eBay had them for $299 this morning. Lasted only about an hour. Sold out fast........
[Galaxy Tab General] Bxsteez:
I 100% agree. I would be ok if they were actually going to send me the tab lol. I'm expecting another Touchpad incident where i bought one and like 4 days later they send me a cancelation. Which made it much harder for me to buy one any place else. I've seen the Gtab 10.1 on ebay for 350 plenty of times so the deal wasn't amazing but it was something i didn't have to wait for.... So i believed lol.
[Galaxy Tab General] Bxsteez:
This is the response i got from dailysteals so i'm optimistic. I think they would know by now if they sold more than they had stock of. So i can wait now :)
[Galaxy Tab General] mcfanman:
I pretty much got the same thing. Hopefully there'll be some movement tomorrow.

Hi,

Thank you for contacting us. Please allow 6 business days from purchase date for you order to process. After processing we will then ship your order. Once we receive tracking information we will send you an email. Please let us know if there is anything else we can assist you with.

Thank You,

Medeka

The DailySteals Team
[Galaxy Tab General] Bxsteez:
The 6 day mark is tomorrow for me so lets see what happens. I'm confident that they won't say they sold out before i made my purchase. I'm not confident they won't just say F U all together lol..
[Galaxy Tab General] jerseypilot:
Yeah, i'll be expecting an e-mail tomorrow with the tracking #, but only time will tell
[Galaxy Tab General] mrdonbonjovi:
If anyone gets an email saying there order has shipped put it here...
[Galaxy Tab General] atoy74:
I wrote them on the 19th and got a response yesterday (see below.) This is frustrating and dont think I'll be purchasing from them again.

"Hi,

I am sorry for the inconvenience. I have looked up your order and see that there was a delay in the shipment from our supplier. It will ship shortly and you will receive an email with tracking information when it does. Please let me know if you have any further questions.

Best Regards,

Kristina

The DailySteals Team"
[Galaxy Tab General] jerseypilot:
Reading reviews of the website and apparently "delays for out supplier" is a standard response.....this company is so frustrating....
[Galaxy Tab General] Bxsteez:
I'm with you guys. I'm sick of this crap. If you are going to take this long to ship you shouldn't be taking our money until you can ship. This feels like a crappy preorder.
[Galaxy Tab General] mcfanman:
Spoke with them on the phone this morning and he said they would be shipping out today with tracking numbers. If these things ship out FedEx SmartPost I'll lose it for sure.
[Galaxy Tab General] mrdonbonjovi:
Just got an e-mail saying it will ship out in the next 2 business days... Very irritating... I don't think I will buy anything from there again that I NEED right away. It appears they use the pony express to get the items from there suppliers.
[Galaxy Tab General] Bxsteez:
I haven't gotten anything from them yet.
[Galaxy Tab General] jerseypilot:
Ugh, that puts it at a possible ship date of Monday..... this place is in brooklyn, i was at JFK the other day I should have gone into brooklyn and kicked some a**

Same, no update or e-mail argggg
[Galaxy Tab General] mcfanman:
I've been assured they will be shipped today. Here's the chat message I just received.

Sarah: Your order will be shipped today, you will receive tracking information shortly.
[Galaxy Tab General] jerseypilot:
I find it weird that they have given three different response.

1) Yes it will ship today

2) It will ship in 2 business days

3) The shipment is delayed due to supplier
[Galaxy Tab General] mcfanman:
Lesson learned. After today, I'm just going to walk into Best Buy and pay retail from here on out. Instant gratification!
[Galaxy Tab General] Bxsteez:
Or just buy it on ebay. They were about the same, maybe a few dollars more.
[Galaxy Tab General] mcfanman:
Well, maybe they won't ship today. Here's my latest email. This is so confusing.

Hello,

I am sorry for the delay.

These items will be shipping out within the next 2 business days.
[Galaxy Tab General] goughymachine:
Having dealt with a few of these 'daily deal' type of websites before, the one thing I have learned is to get the 'special/bargain/today only' price you have to put up with a long delivery time. Never purchased anything from any of them that came in any kind of timely manner (but they usually state this in their shipping info) and if I need it quick I don't look at these types of places.

But, regardless of how long it took, the stuff always arrived.
[Galaxy Tab General] Bxsteez:
Please wait for a site operator to respond.
You are now chatting with 'Sarah'
[B]Sarah:[/B] Good Afternoon! Thank you for joining DailySteals live chat. How can I help you today?
[B]Bxsteez:[/B] I ordered a gtab on the 14th and haven't received shipping information
[B]Bxsteez:[/B] your FAQ says it will ship within 6 days
[B]Bxsteez:[/B] this is day 6
[B]Sarah:[/B] Your order has been shipped
[B]Bxsteez:[/B] do you have a tracking number?
[B]Bxsteez:[/B] because under the shipping information there is no tracking number
[B]Sarah:[/B] Tracking is not yet available, but it will be uploaded into your DailySteals account soon
[B]Bxsteez:[/B] But my order did ship today?
[B]Bxsteez:[/B] Just want to be 100% sure of that
[B]Bxsteez:[/B] Hello?
[B]Sarah:[/B] Yes, this was definitely shipped.
[B]Bxsteez:[/B] OK thank you very much for your time
[B]Sarah:[/B] No problem! Is there anything else I can assist you with today?
[B]Bxsteez:[/B] Nope that is thanks again

---------- Post added at 03:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:03 PM ----------

We will see if the information gets uploaded to my account tonight.
[Galaxy Tab General] jerseypilot:
So it just shipped from the supplier to daily steals warehouse? :P J/K. Well that's good news. Amazon has spoiled me with lightning fast shipping times. Lest I forget 8-10 years ago when I would order things on the internet it could take a month.
[Galaxy Tab General] Bxsteez:
I personally think the story is going to change tomorrow. I don't think it shipped at all but we will see soon enough.
[Galaxy Tab General] mcfanman:
I'm not buying it either. Regardless, sounds like we'll probably receive them late next week, maybe sooner. Live and learn.
[Galaxy Tab General] Bxsteez:
What color did everyone order? Maybe that has something to do with the 2 day delay? I ordered white.
[Galaxy Tab General] jerseypilot:
Grey for me
[Galaxy Tab General] mcfanman:
I thought Black and White we're the only options. I ordered black. I really could care less though, I'd take white if I could have it now.
[Galaxy Tab General] Bxsteez:
Its strange that i haven't received an email saying it would 2 more days before it ships but the day isn't over yet :)
[Galaxy Tab General] jerseypilot:
They listed it is black but is sorta grey. I didn't want white because its a glossy finish.
[Galaxy Tab General] Bxsteez:
Holy crap!! They weren't lying

Order Tracking:

Ship Date	9/22/2011 12:00:00 AM

Shipment Type	2

Shipment Name
[Galaxy Tab General] mcfanman:
Yippee! I also have a UPS tracking number. Not quite sure why to make of the date and time though....
[Galaxy Tab General] Bxsteez:
Me either... I think they just printed the labels tonight lol. They haven't actually shipped anything till tomorrow when UPS picks up the packages from their area.

On a side note. I use to live in Iowa City and Cedar Rapids :) I worked at Rockwell
[Galaxy Tab General] mcfanman:
I love Iowa City this time of year, especially Saturdays with home football. I'll never get used to the winter's.

Buddy of mine moved to Melbourne a few years ago which is probably the last time I spoke to him. I should probably call his and see how he's doing. You still with Rockwell?
[Galaxy Tab General] Bxsteez:
Yup. Rockwell in Melbourne. I wonder if your buddy was with Rockwell and moved to Melbourne for the same reasons. Hahah small world.
[Galaxy Tab General] jerseypilot:
Haha yah shipped.

Im also in the Melbourne club, lived there for my freshman college year.
[Galaxy Tab General] mcfanman:
Anybody notice the weight specified on UPS's tracking website is 1lb. WTF, they shipping just the power adapter? My Toshiba Thrive with all accessories and box was pushing 5lbs. Hopefully that'll change once it goes into their system.
[Galaxy Tab General] jerseypilot:
so they printed the label, lets see how many days it takes to be put on the box and leave the facility......:mad:
[Galaxy Tab General] mcfanman:
I hate to be a Debbie Downer but if these things we're shipped out yesterday as they claim, they should be in the system. As of today their/mine still isn't trackable. Based on my experience thus far with this company I wouldn't a bit surprised to find a refurbished Palm Pilot TX when I open the box.

Why oh why am I so effing cheap...............
[Galaxy Tab General] Bxsteez:
Yea that is what i was saying earlier. It seems that they just printed the label. If i'm not mistaken they have as much time as they want to put it in the mail.
[Galaxy Tab General] jerseypilot:
You are correct, I have a feeling they wont physically ship these out until monday or tuesday.
[Galaxy Tab General] Bxsteez:
Seems kinda shady though.. At least to me.
[Galaxy Tab General] mcfanman:
They took care of the situation so I've changed my post and reseller rating.
[Galaxy Tab General] Bxsteez:
I posted my review
[Galaxy Tab General] jerseypilot:
Well the good thing for me i suppose is that ups ground only takes 1-2 days to go door to door from brooklyn to nj. Assuming they ship products from there onl

y office location.

Btw awesome review. Im leaving one after i get the tab.
[Galaxy Tab General] atoy74:
IMO something's up with this order. 2 days after ordering my galaxy 10.1 I ordered the Jawbone BT headset they had on sale. That item just arrived at my door. Never got an email with tracking number.
[Galaxy Tab General] Bxsteez:
I agree!!! I think the email that others got about the 2 day delay was legit and they just decided to do this shady shipping thing they are doing.
[Galaxy Tab General] mcfanman:
I guarantee you they printed some bogus 1 lb. shipping labels. 1 lb. would have been the cheapest label they could print to make it look like they shipped them. As I said before, this tablet without accessories and packaging weighs over 1 lb. This package should weigh at least 3 lbs.

I might just go buy one on ebay and sell this one, assuming I ever see it.:mad:
[Galaxy Tab General] Bxsteez:
You probably shouldn't have sent an email like that to them until you actually received your tablet. I would've phrased it a bit differently. No offense but they are going to take that email as angry child.
[Galaxy Tab General] mcfanman:
You're probably right. I feel a lot better though......:D
[Galaxy Tab General] CLEV3R:
Well i am glad im not the only one going through this. i order a white one and they gave the ups tracking number on friday but its just the label. no movement as of yet.
[Galaxy Tab General] jerseypilot:
Yeah we are all at that stage, I'm hoping they will actually ship by Monday.

The reason there is no shipment movement is because they just printed the labels, that doesn't necessarily mean they are actually on a box waiting to be shipped.
[Galaxy Tab General] CLEV3R:
yea we shall see
