What were you on? ICS or GB?

It's just an incorrect kernel flash. Phone can still be fixed.

I've first hand experience with this >_>

Don't send to Sony. They're useless.

Hold power + vol up for 10 secs. The phone will vibrate once, keep the buttons pressed until the vibration is felt 3 times.

Let go of Power, keep the vol up pressed. Then quickly shove the USB port in.

Flash these kernels via fastboot, depending on which version you were on.

GB: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1897908

ICS: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1922029

EDIT:

Or you can save all the trouble with the following:

Download Flashboot. After the 3 vibes, quickly hold vol down and shove the USB port in. Flash the stock ICS rom (includes kernel) which will fix your problems as well.

Oh my god! Thank you so much! My phone works again!!! I flashed the ics .ftf file and now my phone is working!!
[HTC Amaze 4G] rbaruch:
Sent my phone for repair since they don't replace phones on the spot anymore.

Been at repair for 1-2 weeks. Stock ROM

Get a call today saying that a repair would be ~$600, and if I didn't want a repair, that I'd have to pay a mandatory $25 fee just for the analysis since "the software is different" and the mainboard was tampered because apparently I opened it up and played with it. Wtf do I do? This is ****ing ridiculous?

I've never opened up my phone EVER... this just put me in the worst mood. The headphone jack not working was obviously because the headphone jack is broken from not being able to put up with constant usage, not because I tampered with it.

EDIT: I will never purchase another phone from WIND, and will probably cancel my plan with them once I finish off my Tab. Rogers may charge you more per month but all my family members have had warranty issues dealt with immediately and without this kind of bull****

[HTC Amaze 4G] yo2boy:
That effing sucks big time. A close friend of mine sent his WIND Mobile Amaze for repairs to an HTC Authorized service center and had it fixed within two days. I'm planning on doing that instead of giving it to WIND considering the BS you're dealing with now.

I also recommend you post this exact thing on HowardForums or on the MobileSyrup forums for more attention. Good luck.
[HTC Amaze 4G] rbaruch:
Was so dumbfounded when they quoted the repair price

Lol that's not the price for the mainboard, that's the price of the phone when it was released a YEAR AGO

Wind doesn't repair them, they give them to a repair company.
[HTC Amaze 4G] meh_beh:
Hey, I am in the same boat as you, sent my amaze in on the tuesday after Thanksgiving just got it back on Nov 2nd , 3 weeks.

Same excuse I was given as you - off warrenty mainboard tampered etc. 600.00 to fix my phone yea right, the phone wasnt even that much when I got it. I was on stock rom, s-on not rooted. The 25.00 fee was waved cause I wasnt going to pay it and my full 80.00 was refunded.

Now I have an electronic brick and I swear I am done with Wind and HTC I will never get an HTC phone again Samsung all the way for me. I wont ever get a device from Wind they dont even have a phone protection plan for situatuions like this. Not to mention the bluetooth on the Amaze is beyond terrible HTC should recall this phone.

It just gets me though that I got the same excuse as you did mainboard tampered etc.

It is like they don't know what is wrong with the phone so they pull an excuse outta there ... so they dont have to replace it.

I have to agree I am gonna call and make a fuss I refuse to have this tab either they wipe it or replace my phone. When I was with Rogers my device was delt with even off warrenty and that was when I did root it. Rogers may charge more but hey I guess the saying is right you get what you pay for, lesson learned!
[HTC Amaze 4G] rbaruch:
How did you get the $25 waived? I have a contact @ a wind store that said almost ALL the phones that come back the repair center says "mainboard corrupted/tampered with"

These guys are thieves. I'm just going to buy Nexus phones straight from google from now on.

Please keep me updated! I have so much work to do this week, 3 upcoming exams i have no time to sit on the phone and argue with WIND atm
[HTC Amaze 4G] jgoedhard:
I have the same phone. What happened to the phone for it being sent in for repairs?
[HTC Amaze 4G] rbaruch:
Headphone jack didn't work properly.
[HTC Amaze 4G] meh_beh:
I am getting the run around big time.

At the store I was told "we are just the middle man" call customer service and ask for retention.

I call, the person who answers, as we have come to expect from Wind does not speak English very well and

also has absolutely no idea what anything is. They have no business working in customer service.

I asked to speak to retention I am told oh sorry I can not transfer you to retention unless you are going to cancel your

service. I asked to speak to supervisor and I was hung up on 3 times, never got a supervisor on the line.

I absolutely officially HATE HATE HATE Wind mobile.

I went to a different Wind store to ask them to call for me and I am told oh

you have to go to the warranty store you went to and they can help you, even though the person at the warranty store told me "we are just the middle man" so again worthless Wind employees. I am just very frustrated and pissed off.

I didn't pay the $25 fee because I said no, 3 weeks and it isn't fixed and you think I am gonna pay, nope.

So it was waved.

My next and last step is to speak to the store again and have them call (as I wait) who ever needs to be called so I can file a complaint.

I know I didn't break my phone and I am not gonna be stuck with a tab for it.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] jaymob:
Hello there,

I have a few questions and googling, gives me millions of results that are not helpful in regards to what I am looking for,

I have googled "rom dump android unknown devices" and etc etc and also looked at the kitchen thread but I am not quite satisfied with it, as it uses windows also linux is present there as well.

I am currently running eclipse with android SDK and also virtualisation is working fine, but my main question is.

What's the easies way to dump a rom of an unknown device, (can it be done in linux, or only windows?).

How can I inject some fancy code into the kernel for these unknown devices?

And what software can I use for flashing those unknown devices.

I have used the search button on here, have looked at android tablet zone and and android tablets.

But there are no helpful answers although plenty to read, but again simple how to dump a rom of a unknown device, customise kernel and then flash it again?

Thanks

Jay

First of all, you didn't even read the "How to root ChaCha" threads. Secondly, you need to flash superuser. Doomlord probably won't work.

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GiffE:
I recently had 2 dead lines going down my screen. From searching around I found that I needed to replace the front screen digitizer.

So I got a new digitizer, tore down the phone and followed the steps from a few youtube videos pretty meticulously. I reassembled the phone, and it powers up just fine. But it now response to no touch. I'm going to do a complete tear down again, but is there any tips that can be given? I've checked if the digitizer's ribbon cable is snapped in, all the motherboard cables are also snapped in.

Is there something I should check to see if it's just the new digitizer is a dud? Since the whole phone powers up and functions fine.. to me that sends up red flags.

Oh and I followed this video:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TbR56jSplRs
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] benem3000:
If nothing else works you probably tore the ribbon cable, which is very easy to do. Also make sure you got an OEM screen. There are cheaper reproductions that aren't nearly as good. (Feel, glass, and details) the one I bought on amazon (from seller1on1 I think) is oem. Contact your company if you can't get it fixed, the company I got it from sent me like 3 replacements before I realized I forgot to remove the plastic bar.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Izy:
yea i bought an OEM refurb also with front Case.

Works great
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cupidstunt:
+1

avoid the "oem" digitizers and go for the refurb with bezel as these are also much easier to fit.

Have put 2 on now. One to replace dead zones and one when I dropped and cracked the screen.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GiffE:
Thanks, I did get an OEM one. I'll contact them to have them ship me a new one!

And by tore ribbon cable you mean the one attached to the digitizer? That had to be snapped onto the top next to the power button?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ravilov:
Yes, that one. The problem is the end attached to the digitizer itself. Never had to dig into this myself (knock on wood), but they say the part where the cable is attached to the digitizer is very very fragile and tears of easily (sometimes even micro-tears, something you can't even see, but it still disrupts the connection). They also say that cable is ridiculously short and that is a part of the problem why it tears so easily.

Hi guys,

My friend recently got a Note II. It comes bundled with official Samsung charger with output capacity of 5V ~2A. Just wanted to ask if it is safe to charge our phone using the high capacity charger?
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] sagarwadhwa1:
not sure but i would prefer you not to use it.

the higher current output would surely decrease he battery life.

your touchscreen might get messed up while charging (if that happens then surely don't do it)

and in worst case, the battery might blast...
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] Adam77Root:
I use an HTC charger (because of the very good and practical structure of usb cable and charger) the output of which is 5V and 1A compared to Samsung's 0.7A. Normally it will not brick your phone and it'll even charge faster because of the higher amount of electricity delivered through the cable. By the definition of performance (which is the energy delivered in a unit of time), you see that the higher the electric current is, the higher the performance is. I'm sure that the battery and device will heat up. So all in all, you can try it as the voltage output is the same, but be aware! And keep an eye on the temperature!
