[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] ssstonebraker:
Has anyone successfully called Asurion (Tmobile's phone insurance goes through them) and:

1. Told them your MDA was broken

2. Received a Wing as the replacement?

I've tried calling them every month for the past couple months attempting to convince their operators to tell me if i will get a Wing if i submit the claim. They won't tell me, they say i have to process the claim ($100) first.

Sometimes the operators are cool and let me know if they still have MDA refurbs around, sometimes they are jerks.... I just keep telling them i have a "crack" in my screen (which i don't) and I'm holding out for the Wing replacement (heheh, i'm a jerk).

Anyway.... did anyone get Asurion to send them a wing?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] Mr. Zach:
I've had 2 refurbs from tmo, bricked #1 and #2 had a bad ribbon and both times received another mda. i just used the 1 year warranty though, i didn't get any insurance.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] ultraprimeomega:
most likely they will give you a wing, i dont think they give refurb devices if you bought it new.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] lrochagonzalez:
i just called Asurion yesterday and told them my audio is bad and i will be recieving my wing today so they no longer have MDA's in stock.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] ssstonebraker:
SCORE! I'm getting a Wing! You can do it all online too!!

http://www.phoneclaim.com/T-Mobile/

There is a confirmation screen that tells you (BEFORE YOU PAY the deductible) if you are getting a wing or not!! You can check if they will give you a wing with no hassels!

OHH BABY!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] benmyers2941:
Apparently you've never dealt with a cell phone insurance company. They'd try to give you a steaming turd in a box if they could get away with it. :eek:

This is from behind the lines personal experience. I had to defend some of the BS the company would pull. Needless to say I don't work for them anymore.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] syrupofwood:
Hey all,

Please, if you can try to clarify this;

I've called T-mobile 4 times to change my MDA (successfully) due to the fact that it is still under the 1 year warranty.

All 4 times I changed the phone I've done through t-mobile (this is the first time I heard about Asurion) and one of the agents did mentioned that once they run out of MDAs they will replace for Wings.

Recently the phone has been having an audio problem, and freezes as well. But the truth is that I am tired of getting refurbished MDAs that are not working well. Do you think that if I give them a call and they decide to replace, they will give me a Wing?

Thanks!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] gscorpio83:
They will send you a Wing im recieving mines in couple days!!!!!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] syrupofwood:
Did you have to pay anything?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] ssstonebraker:
I had to pay the $110 deductible after i told them my MDA was busted
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] syrupofwood:
Did you have phone insurance? or was it under the 1-year warranty?

I do not pay that monthly insurance.. my MDA is just under the 1 year warranty..
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] ssstonebraker:
I had the monthly payment phone insurance
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] DerrickD2:
I am going to give this a try. I am not sure if I have the insurance through T-Mobile. The online bill does not say I do. Is the insurance included automatically?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] ssstonebraker:
the insurance costs like $5.99 a month and WILL appear on your monthly bill if you have it. Just call tmobile and ask them what kind of insurance coverage your phone has
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] SHADEZZ:
Called for a replacement for my lost MDA. Will be getting an MDA. I hated to fork over 110.00 for an obsolete phone but I needed another phone. Whoever received Wings as replacements are lucky.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] Trump:
i called in to get a replacement, and was told i would receive a MDA as well. I cancelled the insurance claim. Ill just keep checking periodically.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] rockmanneo:
Has anybody tried this lately and got a Wing?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jocogi:
Hi guys. I'm trying to resurrect my old Desire HD. I plan to use it mostly for its WiFi capabilities. Maybe a WiFi range extender and playing with stuff like Open Garden and mesh designs. Probably won't get far without 5ghz though.

To that end, does anyone have recommendations for what I should flash for WiFi features, stability, power, range and battery life? I don't mind too much if wifi hardware gets fried in the process.

Thank you in advance.

Will it work,and whats the difference between these versions?
[Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers] simo255:
no it isnt a bug it is just that the hwdatafull is for b328 and i didnt find the package for b360

for the update you have to flash b370 with dload method

3. Any idea blue variant will be released?
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] optionalmgrr.la:

[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] bow2beast:

[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] kuroi_tonbo:
1. YES The US edition does have a 3-axis Calibrated Magnetic field sensor (verified through Sensor List/Idea Matters, and manufacturer's spec sheet). Recent US retail purchase.

2. Not the answer sought, but spend $50 more for the retail version. Supporting ad-driven hardware encourages further development; vote with your $.

Current price points: $229/$299 2/4GB Ram 32/64 storage.

3. n/a unknown here.
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] optionalmgrr.la:
Thanks a lot.

Blue variant already out in O2 in UK but it's non plus version BTW.

https://www.o2.co.uk/shop/phones/moto/g5
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] bvsbutthd101:
2. The bootloader can't be unlocked on the amazon version which means root will most likely never happen therefore removing the ads isn't possible. This was the case on the previous version. Devs aren't going to want to put the time (I don't blame them) into figuring it out when the unlockable version is already rooted.

The money saved wasn't worth ads being thrown in my face everyday in hopes that someone would figure out how to disable/remove them.

I like this reasoning. I ended up buying the full price version from amazon.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sEanTEE14:
Good day,

I flashed the stock rom for J100H from Sammobile since my phone was stuck in Samsung Logo. I tried to clear cache/data but still, I can't pass through so I decided to flash it. The process in Odin was fine and successful although my phone didn't reboot itself. I tried to start it up but no luck. My phone doesn't turn on. Looks like my phone was bricked.

I tried to connect it to my PC.. It can detect my phone if I hold Vol up+Home button+Power Button. My PC detected is as Unknown Device.

Is there anyway for me to recover this phone? Thank you for your response.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aimless Rambler:
If I understand you correctly, the phone was having issues before you flashed the stock rom. Maybe a little more background information would help others help you. I've had a similar problem that ended up being nothing more than a stuck power button. There's lots of collective experience within these forums that may have a solution but need more information.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sEanTEE14:
Thank you for replying!

The modification that I only did to it is root and it was very long time ago. I'm not quite sure what exactly caused my phone to be stuck at samsung logo. I just restarted it then it was stuck.

In my opinion, you unlock bootloader first, then you flash custom recovery. Now, you can flash any rom over recovery.

As I stated in another thread, I used to do this with other phones, but it's been years and it would appear that things are now "different!" It looks like I have the Verizon locked recovery and I'm having trouble getting the phone to boot into a custom recovery. Everything I have tried so far has just been from the phone itself - I haven't plugged it into a PC. I have tried TWRP, CWM, and Safestrap. It still boots into the stock recovery. What should I do next? Was this problem fixed a long time ago?

I just tried this on my Mate 9 Pro, the SIM2 is 3G and SIM1 is 4G, make phone call on SIM2, but then data on SIM1 is not possible.. I thought maybe SIM2 would need to be connected on 2G only for it to allow 3G/4G data on SIM1, but we cannot use 2G on our phones here (they turned off the network) so cannot test at all..

Mate 8 was originally stock DSFA (dual sim full active 2 party conversation at the same time )

I'm having problems with fast charging and USB OTG some times.

USB OTG - Works fine some times. But some times phone do not detects the OTG drive. Drive becomes hot, but nothing comes in the phone. Usually I use a 64 GB sandisk OTG pendrive. Same situation with other drives also.

Fast Charging - Works fine some times. But some times phone do not charge. Some times it charges slowly instead of fast charging. My fast charger is tronsmart fast charger. Also tried LeEco fast charger, same condition.

These problems persist on all versions of stock rom and custom roms that I have Flashed.

[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lmacmil:
Apparently very common. Have the same issue with my wife's SM-T807R4, the US Cellular version. Also seemed to get worse after MM update. Rooted it a couple days ago and started disabling or deleting the Samsung bloatware but so far it hasn't done anything. One thing that did work, though only temporarily, was clearing the cache with Titanium Backup. After doing this (and it took several minutes), I was able to surf the web (with Chrome) for over 30 minutes without it freezing. However, it started freezing again after a while and now is back to freezing every 2 or 3 minutes. It will however play an entire 2 hour movie without locking up so it definitely appears to be related to the touchscreen.

Update:. I think this may be a hardware issue. I booted into TWRP recovery and had the screen freeze. When booting to recovery, there's not much if any of Android loaded. If it was software related, I don't think the screen would freeze in TWRP.
