[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Hunt3r.j2:
The reason why it happens is probably because you're getting refurbs which are basically returned devices that were only checked to see if they turned on and did not have major damage.

I would press for constant replacement until you get a perfect device.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] HTC_Phone:
Right? I called today and they said it was ridiculous that I've been getting defective replacements. The guy said he's gonna send me one more, and if it's broken that he'll give me a free make/model change.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] MadMax:
So when do you get your replacement??
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] HTC_Phone:
Just got my third one today. All three were defective. So we'll see what happens tomorrow when AT&T calls me and I'll see which phone they're gonna let me get.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] superchilpil:
One x+?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] HTC_Phone:
Who knows? I'm gonna ask for the One X+, and see if they'll let me go that route. But who knows honestly. But there's a good chance I'll be leaving the One X unfortunately :/
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] superchilpil:
See I would demand that phone or have them send me replacements until I get a good one
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] HTC_Phone:
That's my plan. Demand the One X+, or even the GSIII if I have to. But I will not take another refurbished phone. The guy says a free make/model change was in order if this 3rd device came faulty, which it did.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] superchilpil:
I had something similar happen to me but I have a replacement center near by so I wouldn't of left until I got a good phone
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Deleted member 3452239:
This is why I refuse to get anything refurbished. I'd rather spend extra money for something that wasn't previously screwed up..

Who wants to bet that these refurbs he's been getting were previously ICJ bricks... Anyone?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Skizzy034:
They told me they would do the same and at the time the only phone that was close was the sgs3 but they said I couldn't have that one. They gave me a choice of like 3 old phones. I was pretty pissed.

After 10 replacements not one was in "good" condition until the one I have now. But now that I think about it the more I can see the reason this one also was returned by someone and just sent back out by AT&T without checking or fixing it. It's extremely laggy at times for no apparent reason even after a factory reset and rom change and the vibration rattles pretty loudly. I never can notice a difference with the custom kernels set to 2.1ghz. Seems the same as 1.5. Those seem to be the major things. I wasn't looking for those problems tho.

The problems the other phones had were mostly screen and build problems. Overheating also.

Anyways, that's why I left AT&T and now use Straight Talk and buy my phones straight up and unlocked.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] HTC_Phone:
Who knows what this guy will say. The One X is a high quality phone. I guess it all depends on the rep you get because I've heard reports of people getting credit on their account, and a guy got the GS3. But I won't settle for anything less than the One X
[HTC One X] chartes:
Hey, I realize that probably none of you want to have to deal with stupid questions like what mine most likely are, but I'm going to ask anyway. I bought this One X mid august, and have been slightly mocked by some friends for not having unlocked/hacked my phone yet. I myself am unsure of what it is that I need to do, or which OS I should even choose. Any advice, guidance, or even redirection would be greatly appreciated. I apologize for my inexperience and warmly welcome any advice or reprimanding given.

Grow some balls and make your own decision on whether you want to root or not.

If you decide to (I decided not to, due to very restricted consumer protection laws here) then I recommend ARHD.
[HTC One X] stebsgb1:
Wait for the official over the air Jellybean update.

Don't bother trying to hack your phone until after HTC have released the JB kernel source. Spend some time reading up in the meantime.

I say this because you''ll probably impress your friends more by having a phone with Jellybean on it, than having a bricked phone in HTC repairs.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kylegriffies:
Hi everyone,

First off, my samsung galaxy note n7000 has a strange battery problem.:confused: It charges really slowly in the wall but seems to be faster in a pc, and when it finally gets to 100%, I get the notification that says 100% charged; so I unplug and it quite literally jumps to; 1%, 67%, 84%, 15%, it differs everytime. Ive tried a factory reset and wiping cache paralition, nothing has worked. :crying:

This brings me to my second problem, a few months ago I dropped it whilst working(I'm a farmer, which explains why I dont know how to fix it) and the screen glass smashed, but the touch screen works perfectly however if I take it back to the store, will it still be under warranty? Ive only had the phone for six months.

I have tried numerous chargers and batteries, doesnt fix the problem. If its not under warranty, would it be worth waiting for the official samsung ota update to android 4.1 jelly bean, or will the problem carry over.

I hope somebody could help me with this problem and give me advice about whether I'm covered under warranty. Thankyou
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] reactorcooler:
Dear kylegriffies,

First on the battery problem, I can think of two possible explanations: 1) the battery aged, you need to change a new battery. But as we have seen you had down it before, so it must be a phone hardware issue. 2) There is a damage in some voltage detection unit, maybe a water damage or something that made it short a little bit?

For your the screen damage, that is an accident I guess. If you have insurance for accidental damage I guess you can fix it, but if not, the screen is not under warranty. Try to ask them if they can fix the circuit problem.

The best way I suggest is taking it to Samsung service center regardless if you have voided the warranty. Sometimes for luck too.

P.S If you work in the farm, I recommend a Otterbox case(if you get your screen replaced), so even if you drop them it's not likely to be damaged.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kylegriffies:
thanks for the reply

yeah bought a case as soon as i smashed so it never got worse and i dont have insurance unfortunatly... however, even if my screen is broke, will they still fix my battery problem? if it was a hardware issue... how could i resolve it?

cheers
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] reactorcooler:
Samsung will change it in warranty. I see no reason since battery related unit and screen is pretty irrelevant.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] 4MUSKRAT:
Ok so I just got this D710 Epic 4G touch. With some of the info I have read I'm guessing that it's kinda easy to brick these if you use the wrong method to flash a rom if it's before the source release & I'm not sure about where this phone is at. It has the Leaked(FF02) ICS Rom & Stock Recovery on it. I am not sure when this was released.

What I want to do is put phone on a good stable stock rom that everything works to get a good base & nandroid backup. Then I want to go to a good stable ICS or JB rom for my daily driver. Can I just Odin a OTA Stock Debloated Rooted Rom back it up then go from there?

Right now this phone's radio will turn off for a few seconds at times. This morning my phone rang so I answered it that's when the phone's radio turned off so that made me hang up on a Customer when I answered the Phone=NOT GOOD

I want/need something that fully works. Like the GPS works & the radio don't turn off n all that jazz.

I just bought Super Hexagon on Steam, and it's freaking incredible. iOS people have been raving about it since it came out on their platform, and since the Windows version is written in C++ I think it would be fairly simple to port it to the Metro environment. It'd probably take the creator less than a week to port it.

Anyone who would love to see this game on Windows RT, please bombard the creator on Twitter, and tell him that he can re-use a ton of C++ code. You could also mention how there's already 40 million potential purchasers, since Microsoft has sold 40 million licenses!

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] NowVoyager:
Hi all!

Having seen Zagg EXTREME Invisible Shield torture test video filmed at Best Buy on the SGS3 (on YouTube - I am not allowed to post the link here), I was impressed to seek out this product for the GN2. I found it locally but I noticed that it didn't say "Extreme" anywhere on the box. I didn't purchase. I decided to call Zagg and inquire further. What I was told is that if the product does not say EXTREME on the outside cover of the box, it isn't that version of the product. Glad that I didn't have that product installed thinking that they were the same!

Extreme is a separate entity that was not made for every device, unlike the regular Invisible Shield product which is virtually made for many devices. The difference according to the Rep with whom I spoke, is that EXTREME can hold up to what we saw in the torture test, whereas the flagship product is merely a scratch-resistance product.

I contacted the interim head of the company and got the "standard issue" response from the secretary. They don't make that product for the GN2. They don't have a date for release of said product. And they don't know IF they will ever make the product for the GN2. That is not wise.

Here we have a product which covers the phone entirely, allows us to keep the beauty of the phone without an ugly case and makes the phone virtually impervious...and they don't know IF they want to make this product for the hottest phone on the market?

Apparently they don't "get it." Time to bring out the brigade. While I am but one end-user, I represent a great many of us who would love this product rather than an ugly, bulky case to detract from the beauty of this beast. If you feel the same, Please contact Zagg, Inc and ask them to please rush the Invisible Shield EXTREME for the SGN2 to market. There is an email addy for the CEO on Zagg's website also. For snail mail:

Thank you Casperi (and everyone for your responses). I simply cannot see putting my beautiful phone inside an enclosure. Aside from that impressive YouTube (Best Buy) torture test what really sold me on getting film was remembering that I had a similar product on my CLS. My car got "attacked" one rainy night by a runaway grocery cart (funny now, but not funny then since I had designo paint, lol). I cringed on impact. (Ok, so I actually cursed, but it wasn't ladylike, k?) I got out and inspected the damage. It was horrible. It looked like Wolverine had run by in one of his fits and swiped it. Next day, I took my baby into the dealership who said they didn't think the damage had gone through. Drove down to the Car Armor shop, lo and behold they peeled the film off and NOTHING...not even a skid mark was there. I suspect that the Zagg EXTREME product is a lower grade, but similar film. Anyway, it's a moot point since it isn't available now.

Update: I called the Car Armor shop and they are going to install that product on my phone for me! They do it all the time for their clients who are having their cars done. I know how good this stuff is firsthand. I am confidant that it will work well in this application.

I want more than just scratch resistance for my phone. I want to know that if I happen to drop it, the screen won't be shattered. So, this turn of events is probably a godsend. Gyrlz like pretty phones that stay pretty...and tough!

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] NowVoyager:
C'mon now Kush...How long has the s3 been out? The note GN2 is at 5 million in 2 months. And that on the heels of the S3 being a hot seller and those buyers being tied to contracts. Plus, the GN2 had form factor issues to overcome in the buyer's minds. Whereas the S3 is an average size phone. Not to spread it on too thick but, the GN2 has also accomplished the unthinkable. People are actually dumping their iPhones and getting the GN2 or changing their minds about getting the iPhone and getting the GN2 instead. I hear it from people daily. "I was going to get the iPhone but..." It's a hot phone and it lives up to the hype (Well, Tmo users got shafted on Multi-Windows and LTE for a bit but I heard that it's coming.). I'm giving you a hard time, Kush, lol! I really love my GN2. But back to Car Armor, lol
