[HTC One X] BarryH_GEG:
Here are the warranty terms:

This limited warranty shall apply to the HTC product (the “Product”). HTC warrants that the product is at the time of its original purchase free of defects in materials and workmanship (“Limited Warranty”).This Limited Warranty is subject to the following terms and conditions:

1. This Limited Warranty is given only to the original purchaser of the Product (“Customer”). It shall neither exclude nor limit.

a) any statutory rights of the Custo

​

mer or

b) any of the Customer’s rights against the seller/dealer of the Product.

2. This Limited Warranty shall last for twenty four (24) months from the date of original purchase for mobile devices and twelve (12) months for accessories (whether included in the mobile device sales package or sold separately) other than the media on which any software is provided, CDrom, memory card. (“Warranty Period”)

Customer shall present the PROOF OF PURCHASE upon claiming this Limited Warranty. This Limited Warranty may not be sold-on, assigned, transferred or given to any subsequent purchaser or acquirer of the Product. This Limited Warranty is only valid and enforceable in the countries where the Product is sold. Moreover, if Product is returned to be repaired under this Limited Warranty in the place other than where you purchased, HTC attempts to repair such Product but can not guarantee the outcome. Warranty service availability and response times may vary from country to country and may also be subject to a registration requirement in the country of purchase.

So here's why you're screwed...

- You're not the original purchaser

- You have no proof of purchase from an authorized reseller

- It was sold outside the country of intended sale

Samsung's policy is similar. Here's some advice on grey market phones. If you buy it from an authorized reseller in the country of intended sale you're covered. Handtec and Clove in the UK are authorized resellers and you have the benefit of a 24 month (vs. 12 month) warranty. Negri and Expansys-USA also handle warranty repairs for their customers by sending the phone to one of their overseas affiliates. Buy it from NewEgg, Amazon, eBay, and CL and you're on your own; meaning there is no warranty. And if they tell you differently they're lying.

SquareTrade covers grey market phones but you'll still need a receipt. They work with eBay and Amazon so purchases there may qualify. You'd need to verify that with ST.

Grey market phones aren't for everybody.
[HTC One X] VtHondaGuy08:
I have proof of ownership and the store I got it from said they get it directly from HTC.
[HTC One X] BarryH_GEG:
1) If you bought the phone in the U.S. the warranty is automatically void because it was sold outside the country of intended sale. HTC doesn't offer unlocked phones in the U.S. therefore no reseller is authorized to sell it. A U.S. receipt for a device not offered in the U.S. isn't going to cut it with HTC.

2) Whether from an individual or a reseller, it is highly unlikely that whoever you bought it from got it directly from HTC. Most likely they purchased it from an overseas reseller or distributor who themselves may not be authorized by HTC. Therefore, in HTC eyes, you're not the original purchaser.

The manufacturers don't want people buying grey market phones and enforce the warranty terms very strictly. Outside of buying it abroad from an authorized reseller or Negri and Expansys-USA you have no warranty protection and HTC really doesn't care. The One X is my fourth imported device and there have been horror stories on every forum when people discover that they have no warranty. At this point, your best bet is seeing if SquareTrade will cover it. If who you bought it from intentionally misled you might try and reverse the sale.
[HTC One X] nooomoto:
I recently made a claim with HTC USA for my One X as the USB/charging port stopped working. The guy who took the call placed me on hold to see if the phone would be covered under the US warranty as the phone was from a different country. He came back on the line and said it was good to go and I wouldn't have to call HTC in the country of origin to file the claim. Now whether or not they will cover the defect under warranty is in question as I have unlocked my boot loader and flashed a custom ROM. Phone is still in transit to HTC in Texas as of right now.
[HTC One X] BarryH_GEG:
And when they look at your receipt or ask you for one if you didn't send it in at the same time. Great news though if it works.
[HTC One X] eraste:
I think it comes down to who answers the phone call. I had an unlocked vivid purchased on eBay three weeks of use resulted in a dead speaker. Contacted HTC shipped the phone got it fixed, no receipt, sales record, etc required they track all that by imei number I believe.

Plus never ever tell them you purchased it from a "friend" or eBay. Simply lie, if that goes against your moral character that's understandable. Despite what sellers state on eBay unless you can confirm they are an authorized re-seller/seller HTC doesn't legally have to honor the warranty as you would be owner number 2 even if the phone was never turned on.
[HTC One X] nooomoto:
I do have the receipt, however I wasn't asked for one either on the phone or in the email with shipping instructions.
[HTC One X] kamui957:
While this is true, the country bit is not always enforced, especially for international phones. There are already multiple stories of HTC accepting repairs for example, for a UK phone sent in for repair in Germany/France/Somewhereelseineurope. Something I have come to understand about HTC is they are not Apple (for whom I used to do phone service). They are a lot more forgiving about the international nature of many of their phones and tend to cut you a bit more of a break so that you continue to buy their phones up front
[HTC One X] BarryH_GEG:
Great to know. I'm used to dealing with Samsung and their Nazis when it comes to warranty enforcment. My i9100 is in the UK as we speak getting its bezel replaced so I can sell it. On paper, HTC and Samsung look about the same. With Samsung you know you're screwed. It's kind of rough with HTC because you won't know you're screwed unless you are.

This guy was just refused service on his international One X.

Hello, i was wondering if i could get some help with answering a few questions i had. In advance i have been using smartphones for some time now but due to lazyness i never really got into rooting and modding them. So as while i am by nature a techy, i still need some things explained. Just some basics about the process, the terminolgy, like CMO9, FD24 so on and so forth, and well just anything about rooting. Im just looking to absorb as much as possible about it so i know what im doing.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
Also search, search and do some more searching... using the search tool at the very top of any XDA page. It's the best tool to find out about something specific. Be super careful, making absolutely certain that anything you plan to use on your phone is for the E4GT (Epic 4G Touch). If you accidentally flash the wrong thing it can go very wrong.

So, like SomeGuy said, do a LOT of reading.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rbtrucking:
This is exactly right I spent about 3 days doing research before I flashed and in the end I still ended up almost bricking my phone. I accidentally flashed a ROM for the gt I9100 and the computer would not recognize the phone and in recovery I could not aces my SD card but luckily I was able to Odin back to stock!

Ya i was able to flash it successfully. Got 4.0 on it with fd26 and nova launcher instead of touch wiz, because thats junk in my opinion. Seems to be working just fine, no sms, gps or 3g issues thus far. Video is kinda glitchy on playback within the phone doenst scale right to the orientation of the phone

Hi All, I have this peculiar issue with my XPS,

1. I cannot unlock the screen after standby, I just cannot slide to unlock even though the screen wakes up. I need to put put in standby again then wake it up again and then it unlocks.

2. When I receive a phone call, I just cannot slide to to pick the call. I need to put put in standby again then wake it up again and then I am able to receive the call.

Does any one has this issue and if they can post the resolution for the same.

I have tried the below but still it did not work...

1. Unlocked Bootloader.

2. Flashed Firmwares like Central Europeon .73, Generic NL .73 and SG .71

3. Tried to repair thru PC Companion but does complete the repair.

Guys any help to the resolution will help me a lot. Thanks in advance.

your normal sim from your sgs1 wont work inside your sgs3 (lol unless you cut it down, which you could totally do). but the sgs3 microsim is smaller, your carrier will defiantly give you one, iphone, htc one x, and some others use this as well.

One of the cases as shown here: www.theunwired.net/?item=photoview-hands-on-with-htc-s-design-cases-for-the-htc-one-x

Anybody else using one? I dropped by an AT&T store today and picked one up. First of all, $30 is utterly ridiculous for a thin, flimsy piece of plastic. It is indeed a perfect fit, and it adds almost no bulk. I have two concerns though:

1) It is so thin that it does not protrude past the camera bulge, so even with this case on, the camera bulge will be touching whatever surface the camera is lying on.

2) Other concern, also related to its thinness, is whether this thing provides any benefit whatsoever. It's so ridiculously thin that it just doesn't seem to offer any protection. I guess it protects the matte back surface of the phone itself from fingerprints/smudges/etc. But it would seem to provide little to zero impact protection.

On the whole, I'm not sure what I think about it. Looks decent, fits perfectly, but doesn't protect the camera and might not provide any protection whatsoever for anything because it's so thin. If it were $10 or $15, tha'd be one thing -- but for $30, I'm leaning towards thinking this thing isn't worth it.

It seems to be a good choice for those people that really hate cases because of the added bulk, but nevertheless need the mental satisfaction that they are at least doing something to protect the phone.

Other thoughts?

Edit: I will also add that, as compared to the naked phone, the case blocks access to the power button ever so slightly. Still pretty easy to push, though, so not a major negative.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Red5:
IMO those cheap orange/blue cases are just for a splash of color. They add no additional protection to the phone, screen or camera lens.

I havent found which case Im going with, but it wont be one of those cheap thin neon ones.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] muzzy996:
It's basically a vanity cover LOL. I have one for two reasons only; to make it less slippery in the hand and to protect the back side from scratches.

I didn't like the case selection in the AT&T store at the time I picked up the phone so I went with the blue HTC thin case just to have something on there. The camera bulge not being protected is a concern, it would have been nice if they could have somehow addressed that with this thin case. The glass protecting the lens is recessed a little such that it will not contact flat surfaces when the phone is placed backside down but eventually I'm sure the plastic silver ring will show signs of wear (wouldn't be surprised if it's painted and the paint wears through).

I'm waiting to see what other cases Otterbox comes up with. I may go with a Defender series but would like to see it in other colors.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] vioalas:
I doubt it'll protect the back from scratches. The bands will probably catch dirt between them and the body.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] americasteam:
We have 2 threads in this forum with pics of the blue case. I have one and really like it. It doesn't offer much in the way of drop protection, but doesn't add any extra bulk to the phone either. As far as dust getting under the bands, I doubt that will be a problem. The case fits extremely tight.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Tankmetal:
I'm going caseless until I find one I like. The first drop will devistate me mentally.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] jklitten:
Picked one up today. It's exactly what I was looking for. I think this will keep the corners from denting if dropped, and it will certainly protect the back from damage.

There's little-to-no shock absorption, but I think it will offer protection against minor drops, much like Incipio's famous feather.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Red5:
Well which one is it and where did you get it???
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] 05GT:
I can't believe AT&T and HTC are charging $30 for that scrap of plastic.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] jklitten:
The blue one? From the att store.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] roltzje:
Picked up the blue one today. Yea its hard to justify it.. I paid $20 for it since I'm on premier, but it's still too much. Really only worth $5... but you pay for the name and design/quality.

I do see use to it, however I might return it because sometimes I feel like I need stronger protection.

Pros:

The case is so thin that its negligible

Protects the corners and edges during a drop

Protects the back from being worn and losing the matte finish from your hands or sliding on a desk

Cons:

Doesnt protect screen from impact

Doesnt protect from getting scratched in a pocket

Expensive

As far as protecting the camera, it would take a fairly thick case to do that.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] AITT:
I picked up the orange one. I like the gray and orange contrast with a gray and orange wallpaper. It simpley for cosemetic looks than protection. I saw on AT&T website they have a red gel case I'm interested but might look on Amazon. I had the candy case they had but they so hard to snap on / off, I'm concerned I'll break the phone taking it off.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] txmade:
I have the orange, it's ok. It makes the back of the phone very slippery, it's hard to hold with hand.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] thatg:
What's a premier account. Will a fan discount get me the case for $20?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Vocalshock:
Go to the At&t store and get the Zagg for the whole phone. You can protect the back with that so you don't have the worry about the spaces in the case. Then get an egrips for the back and you have it covered for grip. The crystal clear egrip looks really good on the back.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Aldiggi:
Had to return it cause its so thin and delicate it started cracking.

[EVO 4G General] typhoonikan:
I had read on a recent RSS Feed that Asurion is upping premiums to $11.00 or more per month and deductibles are rising from $100 to $200.

This is awful. But, It seems that on wirefly, when you go to pre-order the EVO 4G LTE, they are offering insurance with NO deductible and only $7.00 or so a month.

Reference: https://www.wirefly.com/AdditionalD...c76&referringdomain=wirefly&agent=&viewmode=1

Is this a Wirefly only offer or is this how its going with everyone? (Sprint, Best Buy?) If this is the case from Wirefly only, then that might be a deciding factor for me...

Thanks!
[EVO 4G General] ImaWinRAR:
I heard the new insurance changes are due to take effect June 6. Chances are, the info you read about is outdated and you would still be charged the same upped charges
[EVO 4G General] Captain_Throwback:
As far as I can tell, Wirefly doesn't use Asurion. So whatever changes they're making shouldn't affect Wirefly's insurance.

I pre-ordered my LTEvo from Wirefly with no contract and got the Platinum Insurance package. I have a device on a corporate account which has no insurance, so this was the best possible solution. I had no idea such a plan existed. So now all I have to pay is $7.49 a month for my phone, and I have the peace of mind knowing that if I have issues (like I've had with the last several OG refurbs I've gotten), I can get a working "comparable device" as a replacement.

Thanks to sgt. slaughter for posting that Wirefly link in that other thread. I was worried when I couldn't preorder on the Sprint site without a contract that I'd have to wait until launch day to get it :eek:.

EDIT: Though I just noticed the Wirefly insurance does NOT cover liquid damage, which Asurion does cover. That seems to be the only disadvantage I could see :rolleyes:.
[EVO 4G General] dixonwa:
Zagg (Invisible Shield) now offers a warranty. There is a $99 up front fee for two years of coverage which comes out to just over $4 a month (A $59.00 deductible may apply) the Zagg coverage covers water damage as well. I have been paying for the coverage on my Evo 3D and Evo 4G through sprint and have been thinking about trying Zagg out for the new Evo LTE I just ordered. It would save money in the long run.

Awesome to see you on board captain throwback ;)

[EVO 4G General] Captain_Throwback:
This is interesting.

This is cheaper than the Wirefly insurance, but has a deductible (which Wirefly doesn't), but it actually covers liquid damage (which Wirefly doesn't).

The other difference is that the Zagg insurance doesn't cover a lost or stolen device, while the Wirefly insurance does.

Historically, I haven't lost my device or gotten it liquid damaged (except the one time I accidentally jumped into a pool with my Motorola V710 in my pocket), so I'm having difficulty deciding which plan to go with.

I'll probably just end up going with the cheaper option, but if I do that, I'll probably end up losing my device. And if I go with the more expensive option, I'll probably drop it into a puddle. Stupid decisions.
[EVO 4G General] Warrior 3000:
the insurance wirefly offers is amazing and been wanting to change my sprint pre order to wirefly but sprint wont cancel mine. bastard
[EVO 4G General] leebo:
Actually, the Wirefly insurance doesn't mention "lost". It only mentions theft. In fact, it speciffically states that if the phone was not secured (i.e. in your car with the door un-locked) it is not covered! No matter that it was stolen.

And, from experience, these companies make you provide a police report. So if you leave it on a bus or in your car and no window was broken, good luck collecting. No water damage, no lost phone, partial theft coverage, no thanks. :mad:
[EVO 4G General] Captain_Throwback:
Nice observation.

I actually already cancelled the Wirefly insurance, and will be taking advantage of the Zagg offer instead, once my device arrives. Seems more likely that I'd accidentally drop my device in a puddle then I'd have it stolen directly off my person in a situation where I'd have to contact the authorities.

I would rather pay Asurion 11$ with a 200$ deductible and get a new EVOLTE, than pay 7$ a month with no deductible to get a replacement phone that is not EVOLTE. There is a difference. You get what you pay for.
[EVO 4G General] Captain_Throwback:
Oh I'd rather have the Asurion insurance, but it's not an option for me, unfortunately. So I have to find a 3rd-party insurance plan that gives me at least some coverage.
[EVO 4G General] brucejg:
Yes, I read the small print as well and don't think the Wirefly insurance is worth much.
