Closing this thread as it's clearly become a way to redirect traffic which is against XDA rules.

It is ok to mention that information can be found somewhere else as well, but to encourage users to frequent and participate elsewhere is against the rules. XDA does not create forums for just every new device. Once traffic picks up about the device in the General section they will create one. It's a Catch-22 for sure though.
[General Questions and Answers] tienalan:
Hi all,

I have a MyTouch 4G running stock OS (Froyo).

I recently installed two apps: pansi sms and go contact ex. The first time in Pansi SMS app, I opened an old conversation with a friend, and when I clicked on his name to go to his contact detail, the app selection popped up and I mistakenly chose the non-Go contacts Ex option (I think it's "People", but I can't remember exactly) and set it as a default. I want to use "Go Contacts Ex" instead of People for all cases, but I can't seem to find a way to clear this setting.

I've tried cleaning defaults with ClearDefault, default app manager, search clear defaults and 1Tap cleaner, but none of them helped bringing the default selection back.

Somebody please help.

Thanks in advance.

My call quality us bad when I use head phones. The sound goes in and out. I have screen issue too.

So I called to exchange but they want to charge 20 dollars.

Is this normal?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] :
Did they really tell you it for exchange. In warranty exchanges are always free. Only thing that they might charge is shipping. .
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Born_Immaculate88:
That is INCORRECT there are NO FREE warranty exchanges they are either a $5 service charge or a $20 service charge. It is $5 if you have Premium Handset Protection (PHP) on your phone line. If you do not have Premium Handset Protection then it will be $20. There are few exceptions to this rule. If you are outside your 14 day return/exchange period then and you opted out of the PHP then you are stuck with that $20 service charge and will have ground shipping instead of Next Day Air which Premium Handset Protection customers receive. The $5 OR $20 is billed to your account.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] talltexan:
Is this new? Its always been free ground shipping and they could overnight it for $10-$20 for as long as i can think. I worked for tmobile (albeit it was 3 years ago and it could have changed). I never have heard of a $20 fee to exchange it. was this a corporate store or a third party dealer?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] oppa637:
This was when I called 611. I asked them if I could just do it at the tmobile store and the agent on the phone told me they wouldn't exchange it and that I had to do it via the phone :confused: I dont' want to pay $20 for a new or like new phone and find out it doesn't change a thing, especially if it is just a "like new" phone.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] :
Wait wait. Since when did they start charging that. I exchanged phones a few months ago and it was free not counting shipping. They would never exchange before if you were out of warranty.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] voidthedroid:
Its been like that for almost a year now. 20 dollars if you don't have any insurance or warranty or 5 dollars if you do. If you do have INS that 5 dollars gets you next day air shipping.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] android4sunny:
I think then this is for online thing....coz if you buy in store and exchange with in 14 days, there is no charge unless you opt for another phone (then u pay $50 restocking). Coz when i exchanged mine, the waived the $50 restocking and there was no charge.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] SoMuch2S@y:
Here's a screenshot of my Tmobile phone bill from August. I had to do a warranty exchange for my 8 month old G2, I have the handset protection/warranty so I was charged $5 for the exchange which included overnight shipping.

This is for exchanges made BEYOND the initial 14 (or 30 in Cali) day return period.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] :
Thats crazy. Seems they are finally coming down on all thhe warranty exchanges . So many people bricking their phones?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AllGamer:
no, that is only for online orders, from what i can see above
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] :
I hope not, because I buy my phones from the retail stores. My wife has the mt4g and has exchanged it since last year when she got it,as a WARRANTY exchange and at MOST she only had to pay 4 or 5$ for shipping. If you have insurance I believe your express shipping is waived, but regular warranty exchanges over the phone for store purchases, are free. This ends until the end of warranty or your situation does not meet warranty exchange standards: water damage, out of warranty, root, major damage. Then that goes through Asurion which you will have to call and pay a deductible to get an exchange. I used to work there about a year and a half ago. I never did telesales/online sales, so this is new.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] shorty87:
When I did a warranty exchange on my Sensation for dust under the screen, they didn't charge me a dime. I chatted online and told them I wanted to do a warranty exchange. They sent me the replacement device free, and I shipped my defective device using the prepaid shipping label. No charge at all.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] v8dreaming:
I did a warranty exchange in store and they charged me.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ThC23:
This is CORRECT unfortunately, whether you bought it at the store or online there is a warranty exchange fee. From what the rep told me it started around June.

If you are still within your 14 days then it's free, but after that it's $5 or $20 depending on insurance.

If you get a nice rep he might waive the fee, but make sure he notes that or you will see it on your bill after he said it was waived. Trust me, it's happened to me and since he didn't notated it then I had to pay the $20.

This phone is a BEAST!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Born_Immaculate88:
It doesn't have anything to do with it being on-line or not. There WILL BE a $50 restocking fee on all DEVICE RETURNS OR EXCHANGES no matter if you return/exchange withing 1 day or if you return/exchange within 14 days unless the manager of the store waives it for you. It's automatically populated in the computer system whenever there is a device return.

WARRANTY EXCHANGES done while the device is still under warranty will have either a $5 shipping fee or a $20 shipping fee billed to the account. We do not do the actual warranty exchanges within the stores we just process the order and the new device is shipped to your home address.

---------- Post added at 10:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:33 PM ----------

It's automatically populated in the system and its a shipping charge from UPS not a charge for the item itself.
[HTC Titan] rtydevine:
I use some different languages with my phone. French english czech. Is it possible to add different dictionnary for auto correction when typing? It's annoying to tap screen after each Word to avoid auto correction.
[HTC Titan] pencilcase:
You can add words to your custom dictionary, once you have entered the word, click it and press the + ***** button, this will add it to your personal words.

It also helps if you actually switch the languages on the keyboard before typing in another language, but I guess you are already doing that ? (press the 3-letter button to the right of the spacebar)

hope this helps

Thank you :-) I don't saw I can add more keyboards it is very useful.

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stilesja:
The update you download from google is the same one that would come OTA, however you should be be on stock EC05 to run it. Doubt it would work on a custom rom. After you run update, you will lose clockwork. To get it back, use Odin to flash mkasik's EI22 keyfix kernel and then Odin to flash clockwork purple. If you just flash clockwork without the kernel the three finger boot will keep taking you back to stock recovery.

Ofcourse you need rooted phone..

#Windows

This is for full system folder

adb pull /system c:\android\system (blue colour to create folder on desktop)

This is for full data folder (which include all installed apps and your personal data too)

adb pull /data c:\android\data (blue colour to create folder on desktop)

[HTC Rezound] voxigenboy:
that's their fault for going with a Motorola.

although, Motorola isn't always to blame for locked bootloaders. The new RAZR for instance... Moto has offered it with the bootloader unlocked(and all countries getting the phone are receiving it that way). Good ol' Verizon didn't like that though and has ensured that it is remaining locked here in the US.
[HTC Rezound] POQbum:
yeah I almost considered buying the bionic, glad I didn't. I planned to buy it after the development section started booming, it still hasn't. A few ROM's yes but not much to choose from and most are not well polished ROM's.

The rezound section here surprisingly looks very promising. I may have to get me one, again imma wait until development kicks off further here before giving up my droid incredible.
[HTC Rezound] jcase:
This is a factory s-off phone, done with an engineering sim. Don't get your hopes up, all it does is give Chingy a head start on his roms, it doesn't give users a way to s-off yet.

Thank you for the correction J. Hopefully in the near future it will get the true S-Off treatment.

Hi all, sorry if this has been brought up and debunked already, and with my limited knowledge of the rooting process this may not be possible but I saw this:

http://www.addictivetips.com/mobile...nd-on-android-2-3-4-gingerbread-in-one-click/

From what I can tell, the Amaze isn't listed on the HTCDev site to unlock the bootloader either, but it sounds like the process still worked. Then one of the root methods was used for permanent root.

I don't have the level of expertise to try this safely, but hadn't seen anything about this elsewhere in the forum yet so thought I'd offer it up.
[HTC Rezound] jbh00jh:
The bootloader has not been unlocked yet so that is only temp root.

I would bet a major company though and just rebranded--I least I hope so--:)

But 63 solid reviews is best I have seen. Longterm, to soon to tell.

Wanted a 32gb, but reviews to mixed on them so far. Maybe Lexar. Just don't need 32gb atm.
