[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] itsonlyme999:
As you can see from the attached image, I have an i-Go with a US power plug but I need to know exactly if I have the right pin to connect to it. I purchased my Galaxy S4 GT-i9505 from Europe.

The current pin I have is a A-97, which I used for my Motorola DEFY phone.

But I need the correct one to work with the Galaxy S4 GT-i9505.

As far as the i-Go power adaptor itself, I purchased that from the USA a while back when visiting there.

So its just the question of choosing the correct pin (like the A97) connector which can work with the S4 as well.

Then I can show the guys at the phone shops on what I want.

Or.....will this work with the Galaxy S4 GT-i9505?

Awesome man. Good to see someone screw AT&T instead of AT&T screwing the person!! :D
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] pbp8ntballer:
Not to be that guy, but you traded your brand new Galaxy S 4 on with someone on Craigslist, *****ed at AT&T for the Craigslist phone being messed up, and then lied to them on how you received it?

I could see how karma worked itself in your experience with AT&T.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] JazzyCarr0t:
True that...you made the trade for the scratched up One. How is that AT&T's fault? I find this whole thing to be pretty unethical.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] Mr.Mischief:
Getting the extra phone is great, but you should have called HTC. They'll repair any HTC device as long as it's still in the 1 years warranty period.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] :
haha for sure man ... in the end i almost gave up ...it was so draining
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] :
no dude that guy got the phone from ATT warranty exchange, he didnt even use it, when he gave it to me cosmetically it checked out ... i noticed the dead pixels after i got home... MOST of ATT's warranty exxhange refurbs have dead pixels and other issues ... and ATT deserves anything bad that could happen to them with the amount they overcharge their customers and the new little maintenance charge they added to each and every customers bill? ive been grandfathered into their Unlimited Data plan and when I used to go above 2 gb or 3gb they would restrict my speeds and Bottleneck me every single time ... F**K ATT lol
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] :
I did call HTC, and they said it would take over 14 business days before I would see my phone again .. i didnt wanna wait that long
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] pbp8ntballer:
That's fine and all, but still. What you did was basically unethical and in regards to what you did, you were no better than AT&T, despite their shortcomings.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] :

F**K ATT lol... im one for morality and ethics, but not when ive gotten screwed over by someone or an organization ..
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] tylerdurdin:
You seem not to understand that the Corporation NEVER, gets screwed. When AT&T does its audit at the end of the year they will just determine that they have to make people pay more.... Like by not honoring 18 month upgrade cycles any longer, next they will add another hundred bucks to premium devices on contract like Verizon. This stuff only screws us in the end.... You should have taken this up with HTC.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] mrflip69:
Fight the power! Big companies need to bend over once in a while for their customers.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] SlimJ87D:
I agree with this. It's people with a mentally like the OP is what got us into the recession. Getting stuff and not being responsible for their decisions or actions and getting bailed out somehow.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] gunnyman:
I've had att warranty cover phones I've bought on Craigslist. Don't see a problem. I don't yell at anyone when I call though. More flies with honey ya know?
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] Mr.Mischief:
Yeah, that's a pretty accurate estimation. I'm on prepaid and I've never purchased a phone from the carrier, so I've never really been able to complain to them.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] SlimJ87D:
That's different. Warranty states it covers any phone you are using.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] side808:
Wow... Did you seriously just post a topic on how you cheated at&t to brag about it? I don't like at&t at all but to do this is just wrong. Not only is it unethical it's just plain stupid. Like someone mentioned you did not win in the end. AT&T will rape your ass for the next 2 years.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] shook187:
Personally why do we give a F about a billion dollar company like AT&T?

I personally screw them by getting the HTC One on a subside price and then porting out without getting ETF. Now that's a whole different story.

F them
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] designgears:
I find this whole thing odd. I bought an HTC One locally, it was only 3 days out from the purchase date. The camera wouldn't focus at all. I took it to a retail store, they wanted a receipt from where it was purchased, no go. I went to the service center, they said they can exchange it when the 14 days are up. I called up 611, said I bought it locally from a 3rd party, and that the camera was broken. They checked the notes from the service center who verified the problem. They sent me out a new device, not a refurb, without any hassle, even gave me priority shipping for free.

AT&T is getting another $75 over the course of my 5 two year contracts with that new admin fee. They have also pushed upgrades from 18mo to 24mo in the last couple years, which means I pay way more than buying the phone outright. I have no problem with what the OP did, if you are getting fu**ed in the ass, at least fight it, don't sit there and take it and buy into the fear of more fees, they are coming regardless.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] gunnyman:
He didn't cheat them. The phone has a warranty on it for the first year. Doesn't matter if you are the original purchaser or you bought it used. Lay off the op.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] side808:
you're right! it does have a 1 year warranty. with HTC... :rolleyes:
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] SlimJ87D:
Nope, you need a receipt and a proof of purchase. Also the first line of the warranty from HTC says "HTC guarantees to you, the original purchaser ("Customer") of the product and is not assignable or transferable to any subsequent purchaser/ end-user."

ATT's says

"The manufacturer of this AT&T Product, Advanced American Telephones, warrants to the holder of a valid proof of purchase ("Consumer" or "you") that the Product and all accessories provided by Advanced American Telephones in the sales package ("Product") are free from material defects in material and workmanship, pursuant to the following terms and conditions, when installed and used normally and in accordance with operation instructions. This limited warranty extends only to the Consumer for Products purchased and used in the United States of America."

So moving forward and going full force back onto OP again.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] gunnyman:
Then why does att honor my warranty? I've never lied to them about where I got my phone.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] 00mred00:
Do you have the insurance? I have had similar dealings with att in the past. My original Skyrocket that in the end after 7 defects sent out they gave me a brand new note...which was replaced more than a few times as well. It never took yelling and screaming though, simply told them what the issue was and got it taken care of.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] side808:
It never occurred to you that maybe, just maybe at&t does good faith gestures from time to time to try and satisfy its customers. A good example would be the op who took advantage of it...
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] SlimJ87D:
You said you have insurance no? That is different. They advertise that it covers any phone you are using.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] gunnyman:
Insurance is different from warranty. Insurance is handled by a 3rd party company called assurion
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] CheesyNutz:
Exactly my thought... And people wounder why att verizon and others prices are high

---------- Post added at 08:07 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:03 AM ----------

Gunny normally I agree with you but this time I can't I work for att and this is fraud plain and simple since he didn't have by the 64 gig from att he technically has to try and go back through HTC to get it replaced.

---------- Post added at 08:11 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:07 AM ----------

Exactly
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] joshyy_rey:
So glad all of you have a such a strong sense of moral character. I need to calibrate my moral compass with you guys because I'm sure it has never lead you to do anything that would be unjust!
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] stefan.buddle:
**** it, he played the system and won, who cares how he did it, it's ATTs fault for not calling him out on it.

I had a similar experience when I came to ATT with my own device I was accidentally put under a contract, which I got removed a week later after noticing it. Fast forward almost a year later when the iPhone 5 was coming out I wanted to get it and couldnt because they forgot to reset my upgrade eligibility. After speaking to several reps and having to wait for tickets to be escalated (took about 2 months) blah blah blah I ended up with over $580 credits on my account and they sent me a GS3 for free off contract and fixed my upgrade eligibilty a week later which I ended up getting an iPhone 5 and selling on Amazon for $1200..

ATT makes a lot of money, they nickle and dime the **** out of you, if you can get credit/free **** from them then do it. All good in my book
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] tylerdurdin:
It's not moral compass, we have all done our share of things that probably wasn't the smartest decision. AT&T does us the "favor" of honoring HTCs warranty. They don't have to. How many more of these threads are going to be the reason why AT&T stops honoring anything, and starts telling us to take it up with HTC and other OEMs? AT&T doesn't lose anything, they send defective devices back and receive new and refurbished units back. When AT&T decides they are wasting too much time doing this, they will stop.... Or charge us more.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] Mr.Mischief:
Maybe, but you have no proof either way.

AT&T chose to repair/replace it, regardless of whether it's standard policy or not.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] gunnyman:
I reread the op and I've changed my mind. Maybe if he'd just gotten one device and called it a day I'd be OK with it
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] _MetalHead_:
Thanks for doing your part in keeping my bill outrageously expensive!
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] DeathmonkeyGTX:
That's the dumbest thing I've read today but it's early. People scamming mortgage companies by handing out massive credit to folks that didn't pay their bills. To say xda nerds caused the world's largest economy to recede is beyond asinine.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] 00mred00:
Actually no, assurion handles physical damage claims.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] _MetalHead_:
Which is exactly what insurance is for.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] robstunner:
I was told from my att employee of a friend that as long as the device is within its first year you should be able to get it replaced if there is a defect even if not purchased through att. If that wasn't the case what would people who bought from radio shack and best buy do after the 14 days are up?
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] gunnyman:
Which is exactly what I said.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] 00mred00:
See below

This is true and posted on th ATT website...they require a proof of purchase....

Unless you have the insurance. Insurance handles defects and physical damage..defects are handled by the att side and physical damage by assurion

Like I said before...I only know this after having multiple lines and phones and having a number of defective phones replaced. Those phones came typically from a retail store of some sort but I know when I do am imie swap that phone becomes the current covered phone.

This process is not much different from carrier to carrier...actually ATT is one of the more leniant offering warranty on phones for a yr. With a couple other carriers you either have the insurance or go through the manufacturer after the designated return period.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] pbp8ntballer:
Also, despite OP's "victory" over AT&T, it's probably a good idea not to blab about it over the interwebs, especially on XDA. I would understand if the situation was where I could legitimately see the OP as a victim of AT&T (the usual list of complaints, too tired to clearly remember some of the cases I've read).

However, after reading how OP traded his new GS4 for a craigslisted HTC One, lied about its origins, and then receiving 5 additonal HTC One's (obviously not all of them were kept) after more or less *****ing at AT&T for each phone's faults, I just do not believe this sort of story deserves a place on XDA. Good for OP and his belief in his own personal victory, but let's keep these discussion boards free posts similar to this.

Also, next time, it would wise to return the phone with the actual manufacturer. That way, less time would have been wasted for both OP and the individuals OP *****ed at over at AT&T, (they're just people like you and me, just doing their jobs), and it would have been more than likely that the replacement phone would have been fine the first time around.

For the record, I'm in no ways a fan of AT&T, but I'm also not a fan for situations such as the one with OP. It just comes off as OP being a braggart about doing something for "the greater good against the corporation"
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] beaups:
Maybe ATT will read this and track him down and hit him with a fraud suit.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] pbp8ntballer:
Nah, maybe AT&T already knew he lied about where he got the phone, thus sending him 4 phones in a row that had problems. After seeing his persistence, they awarded him with a working one.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] SlimJ87D:
That's not the point. It was the bragging and yelling at the operators. It was the way it was actually phrased.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] beaups:
My point is do what you want, not my place to judge. But creating a thread in a popular public forum on the internet to brag about how you committed fraud is ignorant.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] Mr.Mischief:
I fail to see how he committed fraud.

Sure, he lied about how he got it, but either way, they knew he hadn't purchased it from them.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] SlimJ87D:
Maybe the operator was being ng nice? Did they deserve to get yelled at for someone committing fraud? Don't think so. It's whatever now. End thread.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] Mr.Mischief:
Maybe, but I doubt the rep would break company rules and risk his/her job to simply replace a phone. If the OP was indeed yelling, I don't see any incentive for the rep to be nice.

Yelling, while rude, does NOT equal fraud.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] SlimJ87D:
Maybe? If they play it stupid they could get away with a lot. I've had reps do things for me just because I was nice to them.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] JazzyCarr0t:
What the OP did was questionable and it's up to your ethics to decide if he did something wrong. I stand my ground on the fact that it is his fault for not checking at the meeting with the craigslist guy if the phone had dead pixels. Plus, he admitted that he lied to at&t by saying he got the phone from his uncle and all. If he thought what he was doing was right, he would not have to lie. Some people might hate at&t but it doesn't mean they need to screw them over. They're a business and every business makes bad choices. Just because they are a big company doesn't allow you us to throw our ideals out the window.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] nugzo:
The Op told ATT he got the phone from someone else, doesnt matter if its an uncle or craigslist, irrelevant. No clause that says trading with your uncle is fine. If ATT requires a receipt for replacement, then they should have demanded a receipt. Not the ops fault. If ATT wanted to say no, they would have. lord knows they've said it to me plenty of times.:rolleyes:

Now if ATT demanded a receipt and the OP opened his favorite invoicing program and made a receipt from ACME Wireless, i'd holler douche, that is not the case here.

I think what is more important here is it took 6 devices before he got a decent one, and it was a refurb. That's pretty crazy.

Sounds like the refurb department as a whole is doing a horrible job. I hope nothing happens to mine and i have to return it... It's flawless first try.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] side808:
You really think that it took 6 devices to satisfy the OP is more important? First of all the OP shouldn't even have been sent a replacement device. OP said the rep was "skeptical" at first but obviously gave him the benefit of the doubt. This was most likely done as a good faith gesture. OP called back several times and "yelled" at the rep. because he wasn't satisfied with the replacement device that he shouldn't have received in the first place... AT&T even went an extra step to satisfy him by letting him keep one of the phones!

Then the OP comes on XDA and tittles a thread with "A Month Battle with AT&T and I WON!" and writes in his topic with the following;

He is obviously bragging about how he took advantage and deceived AT&T. Why didn't he tell them in the beginning how he came to own the second HTC ONE? One can only assume that he knew that he wasn't going to get the service he expected...

I'll file the OPs name along with cell master.

fraud

/frôd/

Noun

1. Wrongful or criminal deception intended to result in financial or personal gain.

2. A person or thing intended to deceive others, typically by unjustifiably claiming or being credited with accomplishments or qualities.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] pbp8ntballer:
This was also another amusing post from OP:

So, instead of waiting 14 days for a working phone, OP proceeds to wait a whole month while yelling at AT&T for sending defective units.

Makes sense to me on how karma worked out.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] stefan.buddle:
Your post is even more amusing

The defective units came faster than 14 days, obviously he didnt know it would take a month, plus HTC isnt going to send him a phone to use in the meantime while his phone is being fixed so it would be 14 business days (possible almost 3 weeks monday-friday are business days) without a phone at all OR a month with slightly defective phones, which anyone who uses their phone on a daily basis would take the latter. Think about it before posting.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] nugzo:
Like i said earlier, ATT could have said no, they didnt. It doesnt matter if he got it from his uncle or craigslist...IRRELEVANT. Bottom line is he said he got it from someone else and did NOT have a receipt. ATT does not have a good faith protocol for uncles...Or do they.... and thats why everyone is mad? I must have missed the line that said ...if you buy a phone from your mother or fathers brother, you don't have to follow warranty protocol! Nice!

He's supposed to just accept garbage phones that do not work right and be happy about it? i would call and yell too after the 4th or 5th faulty phone. The only thing the op did that yall think is immoral is said he got it from his uncle vs craigslist... Who cares.. still no receipt! ATT made the call to replace it... Because of that he is entitled to a phone in good cosmetic and working condition, in a timely manner. What's the difference if he sent it in, or the guy from craigslist who bought it originally sent it in? Because Op sent it in it is now going to jack all of our prices up..i think you guys are looking for reasons to troll lol:silly:. This guy is no way like cell master. :(

He didnt ask to keep the second phone, ATT said he could keep it. He asked about returning it and they told him to keep it..

he couldn't see the future.. he didnt know it was going to take 6 phones, he expected the first to be in good working order.. Zero gap etc. And so would you.. You act like he knew it was gonna take a month....really? your post and many others here are bordering on troll worthy.;) I'd yell too after receiving multiple broken phones as replacements..
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] stefan.buddle:
So the ATT represntative didnt follow policy by checking that it was his phone (that OP bought it), the ATT rep was told that the OP traded his phone with someone else, the ATT rep still processed the replacement even with discrepancies. In my opinion the ATT rep should be hit with fraud or some kind of infraction.

He rolled the dice and won, meanwhile ATT is adding a new $.61 fee to everyones bill per line and netting about 500 million (per year) from it and not letting people out of their contracts (even though it breaches their T&C and can be won through arbitration).

(Start Sarcasm) I guess if you take a step back the OP is clearly in the wrong and ATT is going to pay for it dearly!! (End Sarcasm)
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] nugzo:
where's the fraud? He told ATT he didnt have a receipt, ATT chose to help him anyway. ATT knew HTC would honor the warranty from them, no matter where the customer got the phone.. That's why ATT replaced the phone, no matter where/when it was purchased, it's an ATT branded phone and it's not a year old yet, it is still under warranty. That is not fraud. If he fabricated a receipt, then i'd be yelling fraud too.
