[HTC Amaze 4G] xupthree60:
I just upgraded and chose the Amaze over the one s. It seams to me the areas where the amaze are better is a bigger deal than the areas where the one s is better.

amaze: changeable battery, sd card, better camera,

one s: beats audio, thinner and lighter, slightly better processor.

The sd card and battery are big deals. When i used the camera on the one s I could not get a good macro shot, where on the amaze i could make out the dust on the dust. If it comes down to a better camera vs beats audio, i used my camera a ton more than i listen to music on it. Also if your willing to root you can have beats on the amaze. As far as the processor, the amaze felt smoother to me changing screens and such, maybe the one s will be better after sense 4.0 gets some updates?

The only thing that had me thinking and almost got me to get the one s, was how thin and light it was. Im happy i chose the amaze, i just dont see the one s as a replacement, more of a step sideways and you choose which one fits you better.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Opentang:
I've made the jump! I favor the One S over the Amaze, personal preference. Once you use the One for a few days, you'll understand too...

[Desire HD General] Berky99:
I needed to get my HTC Desire HD repaired under the statutory 2 year warranty companies must provide in the UK. The reason was four dead/stuck pixels that had appeared scattered about on the screen. I'd tried apps to repair the pixels but they didn't work. I also wanted the GPS repaired as it could practically never lock on.

When I phoned, the person explained that, depending on the distance between some of the dead pixels, this may not be covered under the warranty, and if that was the case they'd have to charge for repair or return. I chanced it anyway.

Unfortunately, they decided their warranty cover wouldn't include my pixels and wanted over a £100 to repair or about £23 to return. I wasn't happy, and tried complaining to their call centre staff but no joy. I even pointed out they should at least repair the GPS, but bizarrely, their position was they'd have to repair everything or nothing.

So I did a little research and realised that, in my eyes, their position was unlawful. This is because the screen had a clear fault, and they never disclosed their own pixel policy to me at point of sale. Although this wouldn't wash with their call centre staff, I phoned their UK head office and asked for an email address and physical address to serve court papers. I was quite looking forward to taking them to small claims court under the Sales of Goods Act and for the fact they were withholding my goods. I would represent myself.

I emailed the address they gave (and sent a copy of the email by recorded post to their head office). This time the head office staff were much more obliging and they fixed the phone without charge.

Sometimes you need to get tough with these companies.

One thing impressive about their repair policy is they detail what parts they replaced, and they replaced parts I didn't even consider faulty, such as the speaker. The only final annoying thing is they forgot to return the covers for the battery and SIM/microSD card until I pointed this out to them!

***

I also needed to return my Desire S which my girlfriend uses. It kept resetting and we worked out there was something physically loose with the battery connection. This time things went much more smoothly without any repair issues!
[Desire HD General] Muikkuman:
Thank you for sharing this with us.

These companies care mor for money than thier costumers. =\
[Desire HD General] Lewey22B:
My experience with HTC's warranty was almost the complete opposite.

The volume rocker on my Desire HD had come lose (The little plastic parts that slide under the shell had broken) so I e-mailed them and they got back to me within an hour.

They organised a time to pick it up, they picked it up on that day and when I came home 2 days later it was sitting waiting for me with a new body, speaker and GPS module.

Was thoroughly impressed with how speedy they were with repairs with no quarrels at all.

Although in regards to not returning the battery cover and SIM/micro SD cover, I was told in the e-mail to remove those before sending it to them. Battery as well if i remember correctly.
[Desire HD General] yvibes:
mine was smooth as well. Cracked my dhd's screen, emailed HTC and was told to send the phone to them, too about a week and a half and they sent me the phone with a new screen and other things were fixed that I didn't even know bout like volume rocker and GPS atenna

Hi guys, just a heads up. Copilot gps navigation is free. You can download any country map for free BUT, there's always a BUT, full voice guided navigation costs you £19.99 in the UK. But hey, its for free. Might be of use to somebody.

Your dead right, i bought co pilot once, they totally screwed up my upgrade and then blamed me, the treated me like an idiot and took no responsability for they're software , wouldnt give me a refund, wouldn't let me migrate etc etc etc,

i urge you, all do not buy from this company

they are only money grabbers selling a bug ridden program, its almost as if they don't realise there are better alternatives out there,

i for one will never buy from them again, anyone else had similar experience with co pilot/dough pilot?

I bought this app for my Wm6.5 and had utterly terrible support, bad enough that I relish the opportunity to let everyone else know. They had this botched system where when you upgraded ROM you had to uninstall and deregister to be able to re-install. Needless to say the system failed and I had to jump through a million hoops to get them to give me a new activation code as if I was some kind of a criminal. Best avoided for sure.

sorry to dig up an old thread but I downloaded the free version of Copilot for my Galaxy Note running 4.1.2 Jellybean and the application doesnt open. It hangs on the splash screen and closes.

Anyone else experience this problem? Any fixes?

Go to Applications, Copilot, and then FC-Clear cache-Clear data... i did that and i dont have any problem... only once i had this problem

I tried that and it didnt work. I also tried a fresh install on my friends Galaxy S2 and he gets the same exact problem!

Unless there is an application or setting on the device causing it to crash? Ideally I don't want to hard reset my device.

Hello!

How can I uninstall Clockworkmod Recovery from Samsung Exhibit II 4G / T679?

I found some information for another model and people say the best way is to flash back the stock Recovery System. But... where do I find the stock Recovery System for this model? All I found was the stock ROM (OS, not the Recovery).

Thank you!
[HTC Rezound] Watercycle:
I'm on 3.14 stock ruu, unlocked bootloader, amonra in the recovery

do I need to flash something like the "3.14 stock deodexxed root"

or can I just finally try to s-off? :p

thanks <3
[HTC Rezound] a.mcdear:
the su binary MUST be present in the system for the S-OFF process to work correctly, so yes, you must root.

Since you have Amon ra installed, just boot into that, go to the developer menu and install the su binary, then do S-OFF

[HTC Rezound] snowride20:
You did use the ics jb hboot right? Make sure you can see the sd card? And don't unlock your phone again. You would need to s-on then s-off again for it to say locked. I just woke up and saw your new posts, its been a long day but I see you got help. Welcome to the club, glad it finally worked.

[HTC Rezound] Watercycle:
I used the Hboot that came with 3.14 Ruu, if S-off took the "relocked" away then i'm happy, if it didn't, oh well, but I was unlocked when I started the process =o
[HTC Rezound] a.mcdear:
As long as you don't unlock it after s-off, it will be locked again ( although it says "juopunutbear" instead of "locked" if you're using their modified boot. Just flash a stock one and it will say locked)
[HTC Rezound] Watercycle:
I'm still not to sure why people keep bringing up the Hboot, is it because if you flash S-off's it will break it?

I declined the modified version and everything appears to be working :o
[HTC Rezound] AshtonTS:
The patched hboot adds some advanced fast boot commands. However everything will work without the patched hboot. You don't need it its just nice to have
[HTC Rezound] ericsignals:
The juoponut bear hboot is an eng hboot that allows for adb commands and other options most people will not need.

The h boot issue is thus......in the event you want your phone returned to stock (s on and locked in downloader), after gaining s off do NOT HTC unlock the phone.

If you don't unlock it and want to return to stock you basically run a ruu, and then write the secure flag back to s on (scotty123 has a thread how to do this). After which point you phone will be on stock Rom, recovery and h boot will say locked and s on. Just like the day you first got the phone.

If you unlock after s off (as an early adopter I did) your bootloader will only say unlocked or relocked. You can run ruus, and write secure flag to s on.....BUT your hboot will say relocked or unlocked. And to a trained eye, someone can tell you tampered with it (running Roma,etc)

In my case, I had to follow scottys thread, s on, and do the s off process all over again. Early on we thought flashing a ruu would change the hboot status from relocked to locked. However we were mistaken.

So, don't unlock after s off.

If you can't run adb commands with your h boot and don't want to flash an eng hboot, use the ph98img.zip method to flash things (ex recovery, hboots, radios).

Well everything is right but the first part, the modified hboot allows you to perform fastboot commands that would otherwise require you to unlock the bootloader

[HTC Rezound] mikeyk101:
If you want to add the JB Hboot, it is very simple. You can go to their site and just download the most recent hboot. You must know if you are ICS or GB. But go here: http://unlimited.io/hboot-downloads/ and download the right one, either vigor ics or vigor gb. Put that in the folder where you had put the original controlbear program and follow these instructions:

To flash the JuopunutBear hboots

Put the phone in fastboot mode, connected to the pc and enter the following commands

fastboot erase cache

fastboot oem rebootRUU

fastboot flash zip jb_hboot.zip

Thats all there is to it and you can now benefit from the JB Hboot.
[HTC Rezound] in_retrospekt:
I thought you needed to be unlocked with htc dev to gain s-off? Now I'm hearing that I should not unlock my phone before I s-off?
[HTC Rezound] snowride20:
Yes you need to be unlocked. It's part of the prerequisites. Please read then reread the thread in general "s-off with instructions...it's official". Understand how to avoid problems and fix them if they arise. It's very easy but it's like people half ass reading the instructions recently. Don't be that person.

*edit - apparently this is for ICS roms only. Gb does not have the setting.

Go to advanced in wifi settings and change to 2.4 only. Stop letting the 5 GHz bands eat the crap out of your battery.

This could be why some have stellar battery life and others not so much. As the router will dictate the band used.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RainMotorsports:
Are you trying to say 2.4 Ghz N is eating less power than 5Ghz? Because 802.11N Operates on both frequencies and most inexpensive routers are 2.4 ONLY. Then there are dual band routers which in base only do one or the other and then simultaneous dual band which usually fetches a decent price tag.

It just seemed like you were saying putting it in 2.4Ghz disables N connectivity and that would be simply false. I have seen plenty of people mistakenly believe N is 5Ghz only. Despite the lower interference on the 5Ghz band 2.4Ghz has better material penetration and I wont go 5.

If you don't need N speeds in your house at this point and are doing this to save energy (a point I won't even bother going into) you could always configure it to G only or B/G only. I actually have mine (2.4Ghz) set to N only so I don't have to worry about the laptop trying to connect in G.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] hayabusa1300cc:
Why would this work? I will try this with my new router soon
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RainMotorsports:
Depending upon the router it should have no effect at all. This is the router I replaced a slightly more powerful ASUS RT-N16 with but its 2.4Ghz N, 2x2 MIMO for up to 300 Gbps with appropriate devices across the network - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16833704038

Going from Auto to 2.4Ghz on either one of those routers would do nothing as well as on a hundred other N routers made of the last couple years. Only Dual band routers set to 5Ghz or simultaneous Dual Band and the phone set to 5Ghz or Auto would have any effect on changing it to 2.4. If you had a Dual Band set to 5Ghz and you went 2.4 you would just lose WiFi entirely were as Simultaneous dual band would just switch from 5Ghz N to 2.4 Ghz G/N.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jamesey:
Let me rephrase, 5GHz band uses alot more battery. So the tweak remains a positive gain in battery performance.

Yes, apparently I was wrong in the fact it doesn't turn off N as it can run in both spectrums and I will adjust the thread. Thx for sharing.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RainMotorsports:
I just wanted to make sure, you know how the noobs are when they come and "read".

Yeah I haven't invested in a Simultaneous dual band router myself so no worries. If I lived in a loft or something I would go for it but I have too much trouble with material penetration. I actually had to run cat 6 to each floor and run AP's on each one. Without it I can not access from my front porch or my back yard either. Top floor AP serves the backyard and the middle floor AP serves the front.

As far as Turning of N I am not 100% on if it defaults to G but the point is it can do N in 2.4. When I was on EK02 and I had the main router in BGN I had a feeling the damn thing was in G for the phone but without connectivity information from the phone I couldn't test it. I mean how do you do 75 Mbps plus from phone to a machine on the network?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jamesey:
Running on auto with use being the same at times I'd cook through the battery in 1.5 hours straight screen time with phone burning up and other times 4-5 hours with phone remaining cool. So far it looks like it was my culprit hence the post. Maybe there is an underlying bug with the auto option who knows. Either way we'll find out soon enough.

I might be mistaken, but isn't N backwards compatible? I could swear I remember B/G devices being able to connect to a router that only broadcasts N
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RainMotorsports:
N is backwards compatible. Unless you ask Cisco or well anyone involved in creating N hardware. Its actually considered a bad idea to mix G and N. The performance and stability is rather unideal but it works.

However if you set a router to N only you should not be able to connect a G only device. If you can then that router has some serious firmware issues. I don't know of any consumer N hardware that isn't designed by default to be compatible with B G and N. Though the reason I am concerned with the laptop connecting in G is because of syncing files over the network. Id hate for it to connect in G for no reason.

I will fire up the laptop and force G mode in the driver see what happens. I do not have any G adapters. I think my PSP is 802.11 B but im not bothering with it right now lol.

---------- Post added at 03:56 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:47 AM ----------

Nope. Both the Intel 5100 and Intel 6200 adapters in the laptop set to G only will not connect to the router in N only. Takes a really long time before it would let me enter a key and very shortly after I did it said it could not connect. The reason given by diagnostics is "The capabilities of the wireless adapter on this computer don't support the requirements of this network."
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] beezar:
Why did you switch routers? I've got the ASUS RT-N16 which works great and I can put Tomato on it. (I'm assuming that the 300 Gbps is a typo and you meant Mbps...). Just wanted to see if I was missing out on something, because that TP Link sure is a great price.
