[HTC One X] mishooo:
So the problem is as follows - I have a contract with three mobile (uk) signed about a month ago (several days less) yesterday I spotted the yellow spot on my screen (as I understand faulty glue) so today i went to 3 and they told me I need to contact HTC and they will send me a new one.

So I have contacted HTC no reply yet - but that's fine.

My question is can someone who went through the same process tell me how that goes and how long does it take because I use my phone for work and I really need it so a week of not having phone is not acceptable.

Also are HTC going to be idiots and refuse to replace it because the boot loader is unlocked - I think that in violation with the trade and goods agreement.
[HTC One X] Rusty!:
Odd that you've not heard from them, they usually arrange to collect the phone when you call them.

They won't replace it, just repair it. Takes about week.
[HTC One X] optiknerv:
Im also in the UK. I arranged repair over the online chat which was more helpful as it was obviously instant conversation rather than waiting for replies. It took 7 days, Monday to Monday. My repair was the WiFi problem though. My bootloader was (and is still) unlocked. I just restored the stock recovery and ROM and nothing was mentioned of the unlock they just repaired it. I'm not sure what u can do with regards to having no handset. When I had my old HD2 direct from o2 they fixed it directly with their own repair center and provided a temporary phone for me to use. Having this HOX on orange through dial-a-phone they to told me to contact HTC also.
[HTC One X] seanicca:
it's not down to HTC, it's down to 3 to sort your repair out. I've not used 3 but I upgraded with P4U and had to swap 4 Sony Xperia S (yellow spot) all within 28 days each time being told that after 28 days they would have to send it for repair.
[HTC One X] mishooo:
I know - i was a bit surprised as well.

I mean i have my contract with 3 not HTC - true - htc made the device in a bad way but still....

Well anyway thank you all - a week i guess will be fine i have another device its just a bit outdated and I`m having trouble running openvpn and stuff on it
[HTC One X] h00py:
If it's within 28 days of purchase return it to where you bought it and they're obliged to replace it if it's a defective unit.

I had same issue and carphone warehouse were happy to replace it.

Good luck :D
[HTC One X] nech.q:
My experience isn't in UK, but my first HOX also got a bright spot on screen. What I did is, I placed in an ELF (Early Life Failure) order as soon as I found the problem in retail store (I signed up the phone online), it took repair department of my carrier (not HTC) 3 days to response and approve my claim. Ultimately, I picked up a new one in retail store, and thats the happy ending of my story.
[HTC One X] mishooo:
Just to keep people updated if someone has the same problem.

I spoke with HTC today - and I have to say I`m amazed by the support.

A UPS person is going to come and collect my phone tomorrow so it is quite quick and within 7 days I`ll have new or repaired device. I had to include proof of purchase and a form they send me.

I have been asked if I unlocked the device and they actually apologised to me in case it gets relocked during the repair process - so unlocking it is not a problem.

Well teats for now - I`ll say what happened when it returns
[HTC One X] Rusty!:
Interestingly, I've never been asked for proof of purchase from HTC, and I've used the repair service four times, including my One X which was collected today.

Funnily enough though, I wouldn't even have it if it wasn't for someone else being asked for its proof of purchase for a repair lol
[HTC One X] Audioboxer:
The repair email says to include proof of purchase, but I think people get away with not doing so. My first repair got replaced with another phone, which was unlocked, then it had to go in for repair and as I included my proof of purchase which states my phone was with 3, HTC flashed 3 firmware onto it, relocking it.

That was just the beginning of my issues though, now after months of problems, HTC finally sent me a retail unit (not from repair centre), but it ended up being defected as well as it was from an old batch...

It never ends. My tip is if you ever deal with HTC sending you a new phone, request it's from the newest batch possible.
[HTC One X] Rusty!:
Oh yeah, so it does. Never noticed that before (on account of never reading the email) :D

None of the reps I've spoken to on the phone or chat have mentioned it, so I've never sent one.
[HTC One X] mishooo:
And here we go with the update - the device arrived yesterday - I was quite excited since it was actually fast It was send back to me on friday (so 2 days for repair and delivery) and i received in ot monday just because UPS dont deliver on weekends apparently.

Anyway - the first thing I noticed was when charging i can see the light not only from the speaker but from the top of the creen as well - well that was fine with me. But what i have noticed today is that when charging the touch on the screen goes nuts - i just put my finger and it starts thinking i have pressed on random locations with like 100000 fingers.

(BTW anyone had that problem - i presume it is building some kind og charge on the screen due to the charge but have no idea why)

And so here we go again - I contacted the support and they are coming to pick it up again (this time on 13-th of Aug since I`m outside the UK for a week).

I hope they will just replace it this time instead of trying to fix it.
[HTC One X] whynot66:
I'm in the UK, I had lots of issues with my senny XE in repair 4 times eventually they gave me a free upgrade to the hox with a nice new 2 year warranty

I'm replying just to give you the direct number in case you don't already have it

01279 206906.

You have to request a replacement they won't just replace it HTC don't repair their own devices apparently so repair centre will just fix anything I had a new screen motherboard and chassis on one repair all because of dust lol
[HTC One X] mishooo:
Finally received my phone after the second repair - for now it seems to be working properly. Hopefully that will be the end of the story :)
[HTC One X] maxilick:
In Australia if you pay A who is on selling a product for B your contract(warranty/consumer law) is with A as they received payment. I purchased my HOX outright and also had a problem with the screen, the seller was giving me the same BS until I set him straight. Received a new HOX the same day.
[HTC One X] mishooo:
Just realised the screen is a bit less responsive when charging ..... again ....

is that something normal - I mean if i have to send it again for repairs I`ll be quite pissed - I mean that's like a month of not having a phone overall

Just found a video of htc desire having similar problems - mine is not as bad tho http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DpDyMykRH9M&feature=youtube_gdata_player

does anyone know if thats actually because of the charger not the phone ?
[HTC One X] mattspew:
I feel for you. I had mine die in the first 2 weeks. Took my provider 5 weeks to replace it.

[GT540 Optimus General] BartLH:
Unzip it to a folder in your home directory of cygwin, probably C:\cygwin\home\username\kernel-build-dir.

Then in the cygwin shell, do cd kernel-build-dir. Then type the name of the program you want to execute (follow the steps in your guide).

No offense, but if you don't even know how to run programs with cygwin, then you probably shouldn't try to build a kernel.

Kinda true.... Try using Wubi (ubuntu) if you dont wanna do a really dual boot. Take note, If you wanna try deving dont expect others to spoon feed you! Not every thing is simple and not everything is there for you to just pluck and use (maybe thats the reason why the devs ask the users to compile the tool themselves so that only those that know what they are doing can use it....)

SMOOTH AS BUTTER!

Me and Flix123, are glad to present: Optimus U.I. 2.0, the definitive interface/launcher for Lg Optimus 2x. :highfive: It's a port of Optimus Sol launcher which is the stock Lg Launcher but very, very, very smooth also with livewallpapers! Try it! ;) http://www.mediafire.com/?61n5sr6s9gi5tev

P.S. It's different from the 3D Max Launcher that gives you the ability to use themes at the expense of performance.

I must say thanks to Flix123!;)

Just want to say thanks in advance... I got U.I. 3.0 atm on my P990.. Would you say that this is better? Also, can you remove it if you do not like it? I have also taken a look at the 3D Max Launcher, but haven't tried that because I am not sure what I want, any suggestions? :)

It's embarrassing to ask stupid questions, but... :o How to activate it? Zip flashes successfully from CWM, but after reboot I see the standard stock O2x UI/launcher, and nothing seemingly relevant in the Apps list or in Settings... What am I missing?
[LG Optimus 2x] kekks:
Go to home selector in your Apps & you should able to see LG home & home, select the home coz for me that shows the UI 2.0 or else you can also go in Settings--Applications----Manage apps---all---LG home & clear defaults, then press the Home key & it should show you two LG launchers, select the one you want & make it as default.....

Hope this helps you....
[LG Optimus 2x] kt-Froggy:
Yeah, that's the first thing I tried... Shows only LG Home.

Did that. No effect, no choice on Home press, still only LG Home under Home Selector.

May be, it doesn't work on my ROM... Well, thanks, anyway! :)

Hey everyone, I just have a quick question. After spending hours and hours googling and flashing roms, I still have not found an answer to this question:

Will T-mobile Wifi Calling ever be available on the samsung vibrant on an ICS ROM?

I have terrible cell coverage in my house and the wifi calling feature works great, however the phone in general is a bit slow compared to some ICS ROMS that I have tried (w/out wifi calling)

Should I hold out for a rom with wifi calling or should I never expect to get a ICS rom with wifi calling?

Thanks in advance.

Does anyone buy or rent new Movie/TV from Play Store?

After you bought, can you play video?

My rooted Xperia Play cannot play video, so my Nexus 7 does not root.
[Nexus 7 General] starnostar:
I'm pretty sure you can play movies /w root because of the encryption scheme in jellybean. I'm guessing that the actual videos get encrypted as app data. Root or no root, I doubt they can be copied off the device and played.

Honestly, I have a lot of respect for google in this regard....they are the only company that has figured out a way to allow users to tinker with their devices and still uphold whatever the copyright holders and developers want...don't get me wrong though, i HATE drm. Google is awesome for figuring out a solution that makes both sides happy.

Yes you can use the Movies/TV app now.. i just bought a TV Ep the other day and it streamed just fine from the cloud.. i don't know about on my Gnex or other rooted devices

[Nexus 7 General] japzone:
That's interesting. I wonder if it's actually a hardware thing after all? Well for other devices you can just use the Temp Unroot feature in the Superuser app. I've been testing this feature and it's worked flawlessly. Flixster streams Movies fine when enabled and so does Google Movies on my other devices.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frantisek.nesveda:
Hi all,

recently I got my Nexus S water damaged and they refused to accept warranty repair due to the water damage they found.

Now it works partially, it boots, but the screen image does not show. The touch works, for example I am able to go blindly to the camera and take some photos and I know it works because it makes the shutter sound.

Due to the water damage the phone originally got into download mode only, the internal ROM was wiped out and I had to flash a new ROM and Recovery etc. with Odin. Now the phone is running stock factory image of ICS, and I need to figure out how to flash there something with debugging enabled, because the recovery doesn't work too.

The question is, is there a way to get some kind of remote desktop working over USB without doing anything on the screen? I'd like to be able to set up the phone as an AirPlay reciever at least.

Thanks,

František Nesveda

"rm -rf" command cannot run on the device

I've got an new device LG Optimus LTE II (LGE F160L) and install "Better Terminal Emulator Pro"

The Android version is 4.0.3

The kernel is 3.0.8-00001-g65e7cd3

1. I properly rooted the device

2. I used "su" command before runnig follow the commands.

3. When I try to run "rm -rf /sdcard/.ads" command, it showed "No such file or directory"

I've found the command "-rf" has been trade as a diretory but parameters.

How does it happened?

How can I resolve this?
[LG Nitro HD] Malnilion:
I think it's because the folder /sdcard/.ads doesn't actually exist because /sdcard is a symbolic link to /mnt/sdcard. So to answer your question, I think the following might work:

rm -rf /mnt/sdcard/.ads

If that doesn't work, I dunno...
[LG Nitro HD] aswasw:
THK Malnilion,

I have also tried "rm -rf /mnt/sdcard/.ads", but didn't work with a respond of "rm failed for -rf, No such file or directory."

the "rm" command thought "-rf" is a file or a directory., and the "-rf" should be parameters.
[LG Nitro HD] Malnilion:
Ah, I see, this might be a limitation of busybox, then.
[LG Nitro HD] aswasw:
Oh, really?

I need to run a lot of testing scripts in "Gscripts". I see, why those scripts don't work on this device.

Then, how can I update the busybox? Those testing is my work!! Otherwise, I need to change back to HTC Desire which scripts are working well.:crying::crying: OH, Nooooo........:crying::crying::crying:
[LG Nitro HD] drumist:
Are you using the same terminal emulator application and version on the Desire?
[LG Nitro HD] aswasw:
Yes, of course. But the andorid version is 2.3.7.

I use "rm -r /mnt/sdcard/.ads" without parameter "f" as a mistake, and the script runs without a respond of error. ^_^

I used R.E browse to /mnt/sdcard , I found directory "/mnt/sdcard/.ads" has been removed !!!!!!!

I try to remove other directory with the "rm -r" command which seems non-forced remove command, but in fact, the command remove the folder, and everything in the folder, too.

OMG...Is there something has been modified in the kernel??
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnny2505:
Hello all. First this forum has been great giving me info on my new Nexus 7. Even problems to look out for (that I haven't had yet, knock on wood). :eek:

Right now I have an original Droid that I had added via a dealer under the table on MetroPCS via Hodini. It works "okay" and had it awhile. The problem is, even with the custom PRLs and tweaking via CDMA Workshop, I only get 100-400kbps in a so called 3G Metro city.

I really think T-Mobile's 'Walmart' deal is the best way to go. Even 100 minutes of talk is enough for me, and if not ill do the GVoice to Chat route trick.

So the issue is I blew all my money from the sell of my original iPad to get this 16GB Nexus (plus some beer). I can probably soon muster around $100, maybe $125. Can u recommend a decent android phone around this price thats just a step up than my droid in speed, but I know I won't be getting a Nexus for this. Mainly something that I can do good battery time for WiFi share, or a phone known for good Bluetooth sharing reliability so I won't be using so much battery?

Reason I want this cause as you all know the Nexus 7 is pretty gimped without Internet. I really wish Google / ASUS made a 3G or 4G version, I would of bought that in a second, even if it was $100 or $150 more.

Thanks in Advance!
