[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] st33med:
You unlocked it. That invalidates the warranty. You can't take what other people on the Internet say over what the unlocker says. Maybe they are charging you a whole bunch; you'd want to speak to their manager for info.

If you are going to throw it away just because of a light bleed, might as well ship it to me. I'd gladly take it off your hands. :D

---------- Post added at 07:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:53 PM ----------

According to Very's website, they have to have it returned as is with everything intact. Unlocking it and installing a ROM is not 'as is' and would cost THEM money to undo what you did via unlocking, which means sending it back to Asus and costing them money.

They aren't going to foot that bill.

If you really want to repair it, just do it yourself.

Additionally, getting a repair from them means going through Asus. If your warranty is invalidated in any way, they can't do that. You voided the warranty implied via the sale.

You're trying to game the system to have another company pay for repairs when you voided the one year warranty already.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
to fix a good percentage of that screen bleed, all op has to do is open up tablet. then loosen the display screws. then retighten them slowly. several accounts of screen bleeds being fixed this way. screen bleed is likely from display screws being tightened to tight. there's a thread, by Erusman I believe, that details how to open prime up without messing anything up.

man they looks like alot of people been getting bad screens im surprised no one has not bought and extra prime switch screens and return the bad one lol i would not do that though lol just thinking lol :angel:

I complained to the FTC

I was just told (yesterday) that because I had unlocked my device my screen failure wouldn't be covered under warranty. They haven't even given me an RMA yet. They just looked it up in their DB and said it was unlocked so I was out of luck.

I filed a complaint with the FTC here in the US but I'm not expecting much.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Nefariouss:
I'm curious. Do you guys as Internet lawyers think you're smarter then Asus lawyers? Cause let's be honest, Asus lawyers wrote the agreement for unlocking, not some cs rep. None of you have a leg to stand on and the constant whining on this forum about unlocking and voiding your warranty and then Asus not covering it is tiring.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] mroshaw:
I would suggest that this only refers to returning or exchanging the item. In this case, where the item is damaged / not fit for purpose, I believe the Sales of Good Act / Distance Selling Regulations apply and the OP is entitled to a replacement from VERY.

I think going with Trading Standards is a great idea and I'd be really interested to hear from the OP as to the results of their dealings with TS and VERY.
[Wildfire General] heavy_metal_man:
ok this is to try clear up the amount of people posting for this.

there are only 2 ways of doing this.

1. BUY a unlock code!!!!!!!!!!!!

2. use xtc clip to gain s-off supercid and sim unlock.

there is no free way!!!!!!!

unless your device has RADIO S-0FF. NOT revolutionary s-0ff as it is a hboot patch. if you are radio s-off ( highly unlikely as it would need to be shipped s-0ff. )( only other way is xtc clip, but then you would already have sim unlock) then unzip and put the attached file (.nbh) on the root of your sdcard. boot to bootloader. then clear s58 data. this WILL factory reset your device!!!

Again there is NO FREE WAY. NO SOFTWARE WE HAVE CAN DO IT!!!

unlock htc desire, http://www.unlock-htcwildfire.com

I hunted all over the internet to get my phone unlocked. I used another site but the code never came through, i found this site i used live chat to confirm they had the code, i ordered and i got the code with 15 mins and it worked first time and it was the cheapest i found compared to other companies.
[Wildfire General] nickmgray:
Keep in mind that there's always a free way. Just call your service provider and they will send you an unlock code for your phone within 48 hours. The catch is that you need to have an account in good standing. If you don't, you can always fall back on HTC SIM Unlock. I've used them a few times over the years and even got a refund since they coudn't unlock my ancient imate JAM. http://www.htcsimunlock.com/#oid=1096_1

How to unlock HTC Wildfire?

Hi Heavy_Metal_Man,Does that mean that if my HTC Wildfire is a " RADIO S-0FF", it should be unlocked already? How do i check that."( only other way is xtc clip, but then you would already have sim unlock) then unzip and put the attached file (.nbh) on the root of your sdcard. boot to bootloader. then clear s58 data. this WILL factory reset your device". What will the this do to the phone? Will it unlock the phone?Thanks in advance for any reply.Kind regards
[Wildfire General] heavy_metal_man:
you need to boot into bootloader using volume down and power after the phone is off. if the white screen says s-off and does not say revolutionary then you have either already used an xtc clip, and the phone will be sim unlocked, or it was sent out like that. if you run the diag.nbh it will clear the security data for the phone, but it will only run if you are radio s-off. it will remove sim lock, and give you supercid so you can run any ruu. as a side effect it will wipe all data from your rom.

so, if you are radio s-off this will give you sim unlock. but it will factory reset your phone in the process so back up what you can :)

How to root and network unlock HTC Wildfire Buzz

Hi all,

I´ve just bought a network unlocking code on this website: https://www.officialhtcunlock.com/ a couple of hours ago. I received the code via email in about 3 or 5 minutes. Price was less than £5.00. My HTC Wildfire Buzz is now accepting any sim cards. I also rooted the phone and flashed a new ROM to it, before network unloking it. Tutorial its here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1365159 . Thanks heavy_metal_man and usaff22 .
[Wildfire General] Krokotam_:
I`m trying to understand this , but nothing again in fact .SO my phone has S-OFF , will I be able to remove network lock ?
[Wildfire General] heavy_metal_man:
That depends on how you gained s-off. there are only 3 options.

1. you used revolutionary to gain s-off. then No. you cannot get free sim unlock.

2. you used an xtc clip to s-off. You already Have sim unlock as the xtc clip removes it when it is removing s-on.

3. you device was shipped to you s-off. (very, very unlikely) if your hboot does *not say revolutionary at the top* but says s-off and you are still sim locked- place this onto the root of your sdcard and then follow the basics of this video. Ignoring the xtc clip, you wont need it.

These 3 points apply to everyone.
[Wildfire General] Will_Xda:
Has something like described in this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2024422 been tried. It worked for My DesireC but not DesireX though someone might wanna try it out as i dont have a wildfire anymore
[Wildfire General] heavy_metal_man:
Yeah. It won't work for us as our device is mtd and not emmc. Emmc devices map all of the radio partition, allowing things to be viewed and if exploitable s-off to be gained ect. But with mtd devices the radio partition, which among other things holds the bootloader ect is. Not mapped and cannot be written to by normal methods.
[Wildfire General] Krokotam_:
I have bough 2 codes , both did not worked for me , the last seller said to unroot the phone ? Any suggestions is this going to work ? And probably a stock meteor rom ?
[Wildfire General] Blueangel69:
All its explained here and in the Heavy_Metal_Man thread. You bought the wrong codes. Earlier in this thread i give the link from my unlock code suppliers. If one insert a good code on a locked device, the same must unlock, with no need of rooting or unrooting.

If you want to unroot, i belive that you just need to flash the rom that came with it from factory. Get the info/specs about your device in the wiki or in gsmarena website.

Keep checking out regularly the status regarding unlocking your device "for free" here in XDA - Developers.

Never the less, i believe that a free unlock for these security levels will be possible soon.

Hope i helped anything ;)
[Wildfire General] heavy_metal_man:
sorry to burst your bubble but this device will probably never get free sim unlock as Radio s-off will never be achieved and we wont stumble upon it. trust me, we've looked. all users can do is find a trusted supplier or get an xtc clip.
[Wildfire General] Blueangel69:
Ok Heavy_Metal_Man (Y) Thats a fact then ;)
[Wildfire General] heavy_metal_man:
I always feel bad having to say that. I really wish we had cracked it when we tried. I have an xtc clip so I never really needed it :o truth be told that's the only reason I bought the 'clip was because I had 3 wildfires to SIM unlock lol, long before I knew of s-off and rooting and all the good stuff :)
[Wildfire General] Blueangel69:
Anywayzz... I bought the unlock code realy cheep (codes are cheap). In this thread i also provide the link to the website of the HTC code suppliers. Have a good one Heavy_Metal_Man ;)

[Wildfire General] DosKey123:
I don't know why people pay for 'radio-S-OFF' instead of just downgrading/unlocking their bootloader to achieve S-OFF(Simlock Off). Everything is on this forum to achieve this.
[Wildfire General] heavy_metal_man:
I'm sorry but have you read the thread or the sim unlock attempt thread? I've explained this several times now. S-on and s-off stand for security on and security off. The downgrade to use revolutionary is a PATCHED bootloader. It is not real security off. The phone is still s-on. Yes it is still security on. The way the hboot checks if the phone is s-on or not is that it asks the radio early on during the boot process, long before you actually see the bootloader and the radio tells the hboot if its on or not. The patched hboot is set that no matter what reply the radio gives it ignores it and returns s-off. You can check this yourself as if you flash any other bootloader bar the revolutionary one your phone will return to s-on, but with a radio s-off phone it will always stay s-off. No matter what hboot you flash.

Next, the way people can get SIM unlock on this phone is by using the pc49diag.nbh which us an official HTC diagnosis tool that they use to remove s-on and then wipe the SIM lock and cid. This tool will only work under 3 conditions. 1. You have a HTC white card. this is a special SIM card that is programmed to authenticate with the radio and the radio removes the security. 2. You have an xtc clip, which using its cable emulates the htc white card and then the radio removes the security. 3. You have security off to begin with and then it will remove the SIM lock.

this will NOT work with the revolutionary hboot as it is not part of the process. its a "conversation" with the radio and the diag.nbh that is occurring and the radio is still s-on so it denies removing the SIM lock.

So... radio s-off or no SIM unlock. That's it.
[Wildfire General] eps77:
I tried a couple of the 99p ebayers, but neither worked - they did refund the monies - well I'll have to try and remember to check at some point in the next week or so...

I gave up and after being offered £20 by our mobile operator to unlock it - even after I pointed out that the phone wasn't worth that much! I went with : www dot unlock-htcdesire dot com (can't post URLs yet, top lurking by me!) and this worked. The code took around 2 1/2 hours to come through, but it did work. I had to enter it twice, which threw me, but it's now unlocked :) So we can use it whilst waiting for a new phone to arrive (its my wife's phone).

We'd entered in to a new contract with Ee - but were on Orange, so it needed an unlock.. ho hum! Another reason to go for unlocked phones!!

simlokc

I just do not understand one, if the file is not suitable for the method for s-off revolutioner, given the fact that htc clip itself will remove simlock, without your file. Finally, you say that it is unlikely that the devices come with s-off.

Then why do we need this file? I do not understand.
[Wildfire General] heavy_metal_man:
The pc49diag.nbh is part of a family of diagnosis files written by htc to be used by their service engineers to repair phones. Often to repair software damage they need to remove security on (s-on) so that they can repair customer mistakes, then re-apply the security. These files were "leaked" from htc service centers and people started trying to use them to gain s-off.

In order for the diagnosis file to run 3 conditions must be met.

1 it must not have been tampered with, or else the phone will not accept it.

2 your phone must be radio s-off. If not then

3 you need a "htc white card "

The xtc clip basically formats peoples sdcard making them gold cards, then adds the needed diag.nbh file onto it and then when the time is right it uses its sim flexy cable to emulate a htc white card, which in turn authenticates that we are "htc engineers" and unlocks the phone including sim lock.

So, revolutionary s-off will not work as it is not a full unlock. it is a tampered hboot that believes it is unlocked but when you run the diag.nbh it bypasses the hacked hboot and the phone knows its security is still on.

The only time this file would be useful to our devices would be if you owned an xtc clip, in which case you will already be sim unlocked. Or if your phone was accidentally shipped to you already s-off, then and only then could you sim unlock with this file as you would be radio s-off and not xtc clip unlocked.
[Wildfire General] sorcerxl:
So no news about free sim unlock ?

I tried revolutionary s-off and pc49diag and it gives this error : AT-CMD Timeout[AT@SIMLOCK=7,0][OK][ ERROR ]

Any recomandations?

by the way an xtc clip is much more expensive then s-off-ing the phone at my local phone service .
[Wildfire General] heavy_metal_man:
They will probably use an xtc clip to s-off the phone, which will SIM unlock the phone at the same time but the xtc clip is aimed to be sold to unlock shops and not single people.
[Wildfire General] sorcerxl:
yep , unlocked with xtc clip , but with my goldcard generated online , the one generated by the clip didn't work
[Wildfire General] heavy_metal_man:
Thats unusual, did they use the same sdcard? Glad your all unlocked now pal :)
[Wildfire General] sorcerxl:
not the same card, i didn't let them mess up mine

Hi everyone,

as everyone knows Adobe is dropping support for Flash on Android.

Android 4.1 (Jelly Bean) will NOT support Flash.

BUT Adobe is still supporting Flash for Android up to 4.0.X.

So far in theory. BUT embedded Flash Videos don't work with our Razr and every ICS Version (Leaked or not).

While Flash Menues work fine embedded Videos don't.

Test it for yourself on this sites (to prevent comments like: uhm, but its working for me):

southparkstudios.com / southpark.de --> Episodes

divshare.com

ESPN.com

ect.

Everything flash-based worked with GB 2.3.6.

Everything works on other Devices with 4.0.3 and 4.0.4 (At least the ones i know, like Galaxy SII SIII, Nexus, Odys Tablets ect.).

So it has to be some Moto/Razr bug. Especially since the Nexus shares the same CPU/GPU as the Motorola and their flash works perfect (tested myself with 4.0.4).

So i think its some hardware accelleration thinggy. Maybe someone could fix this or help me/us by sending mails & bugreports to Moto and to Adobe.

Thanks.

update: yeah ive googled it. its a known issue. flash videos doesnt work with ICS, no matter what u do. and according to adobe, they only support RAZR up to 2.3 - http://www.adobe.com/devnet-apps/flashruntimes/certified-devices.html
