I need help taking HTC to small claim court

please read below

Good day,

I have now a big issue and you are my last resort before taking the issue to small claim court.

I have sent my phone and paid for shipping even though it's in warranty.

The problem is that when I called to check the status on my phone ,

I spoke to Bryan Smith he informed me that I have to pay cause the software was unauthorized then I told him that I purchased it and it has copyrights and compatible with the phone. then He didn't know what to say so he moved me to Britney Dora she came in with a different story saying that the charging port is broken.

I asked for a manager or a supervisor she refused to let me talk to anyone higher than her and she claimed that the manager is busy and will not talk to me.

I hardly got her manager's name : Curtis Macmillin

This is totally unacceptable and before I sent it I have taken pictures for every part of the phone including the charging port .

I know it was not broken and the software installed is Tomotm navigation software which I have purchased and I have receipt for it.

They asking me now for money ($499) to repair my warranty phone which is having factory defect or for $39 to return it unrepaired..

Please advice.

IO have checked the small claim court guide and i read that I have to be in WA to take them to court .

Any advice?

Laws will vary from country to country and state to state but what part of Western Australia are you in (your profile isn't filled in)? What's wrong with talking to your local Citizens Advice Beaureu - they often have the ability to book you in for an hours free legal advice.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] kilrah:
More background info would be welcome if you want advice.

What phone? Bought new or used? Ever flashed? What was the problem that made you send it in? etc...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] tbrown5175:
WA may mean Washington, USA (the state).
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ach2:
Didn't answer kilrah's questions in post 3 though did you? If you want to go to a small claims court, or ask for advice you are going to need to give more info than just your home state.

You're good at naming names but not giving info - please be careful here 'cos if you go to court and lose you could be hit by some personal defamation claims with what you've already written.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Jonathan1683:
That doesn't make any sense to me did the phone have a custom rom on it?:confused:
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] burtcom:
I think you're misquoting here, Ach2 :)

the original poster, hanoon, has yet to reply any of the questions on this thread.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ChumleyEX:
I'm sure he won't either.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ach2:
Good point - if I'm going to spout off like a barrack room lawyer I should at least get my own facts right :D

Sorry tbrown5175, you were answering one of the questions which hanoon didn't bother with - but at least you put me straight, I thought WA was Wise A**e :D

And as usual, ChumleyEX summed up correctly with only 5 words :)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ChumleyEX:
I do try. :D
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] tbrown5175:
No worries. :)

I do apologize if there is a thread similar to this out there. But I just got my sony xperia x1 this past Wednesday and I can not connect/sync my email or receive MMS text messages while on the att edge network. (It tells me to check my settings).

But I can connect/sync my email and receive MMS texts in wireless mode. The problem is most of the time I am in areas that i only can connect the edge network and it has been frustrating not being able to received email or multimedia text messages.

Does anyone have a solution for this? I would really appreciate it.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] ravivermaindia:
My MS Exchange Server is 2003 as such emails on my HD appears in Text format instead of HTML format. Can any memebe;)r suggest me that whether there is any patch which can convert email text to HTML format? Thanks
[HTC Excalibur] kungfubass1961:
ok here it is i have the tmobile dash with windows 6.0 , ive been doing some waiting and hopeing for a rom upgrade, i know that i can find a cooked 6.1 rom here but with no tzones or my faves or windows support, ive been told that becouse of the cooked rom is the reson tmobile wont ever put out a 6.1 for the dash, so then it seems il be stuck with the 6.0,

my reason for not doing the cooked 6.1

1. no windows support

2. no my faves

3. no tzones

4. was told skyfire wont work on the cooked 6.1

5. mms wont work on the 6.1

so what are the good reason's why i should upgrade to a cooked rom,

kungfubass1961@yahoo.com
[HTC Excalibur] cswroe:
Don't upgrade and save us all.
[HTC Excalibur] gixxum:
hhahahahahahahahaahahhahaa

that was the best reply ever!

anyways...

1- Windows support? As in using it with a windows pc? Or getting actual support for the software? Connecting it and using it in conjunction with a windows computer/network works fine.

2 - Myfavs still works, but the crappy interface was removed. To manage your myfavs, do it though your mytmobile.com account. You can download, from the forum, the crappy interface and install it if you so desire.

3 - no comment. tzones and the hack should die in a fire. (ok..no useful comment)

4 - Skyfire works just fine.

5 - mms works just fine

who the hell is giving you your information? you really need to read a bit more about this before even attempting to change your rom. there is a few things you need to learn and understand first. you dont just push a button and magic happens.

My OPINION: 6.0 sucks. its full of bloat. it has useless apps that take up too much system resources on a phone which doesnt have a lot to begin with. 6.1 (kavana/ricky) is faster and gives you a lot more control and USEFUL features than 6.0. I have run 6.1 since the first few kavana builds, and everything (service wise like mms/text/voice) has been flawless.
[HTC Excalibur] roloracer:
I agree with gixxum that 6.0 sucks huevos :D The first thing I did within the first two days of buying my dash was flash rick's 6.1 v24 , cause I hated how crammed the homescreen was , it doesn't even come close to the sliding panel homescreen. My response to this is:

my reason for not doing the cooked 6.1

1. no windows support ( you get all the support you need here at xda)

2. no my faves (gixxum said mytmobile.com)

3. no tzones ( Pay the extra 20bucks for unlimited data:cool:)

4. was told skyfire wont work on the cooked 6.1 (works ,also get opera, PIE sucks)

5. mms wont work on the 6.1( never had a problem with it, if you do jdoggraz can help)

Also the customization of the 6.1 is amazing , you can make it your own.
[HTC Excalibur] stylez:
My reason for not doing the cooked 6.1

1. no windows support (Bill gates never answers the phone anymore)

2. no my faves (Answered)

3. no tzones (Hack Kill Die Thiefs)

4. was told skyfire wont work on the cooked 6.1 (Who told you that Microsoft :D)

5. mms wont work on the 6.1 (Never any issue and not sure how people do have issues???)

so what are the good reason's why i should upgrade to a cooked rom,

It's faster, more user friendly has a great user forum and oh my god Dinosaur WM6 Nuff said...
[HTC Excalibur] kungfubass1961:
:oyou guys are killing me lol, ya true 6.0 is old school, and yes i dont relly need the my fave interface can do with out it, and tzones opps :pi most have been drunk opps, but hey if you say skyfire works and mms works sweet, gixxun thanks bud:)for the info

ok via activesync well this work? with the 6.1
[HTC Excalibur] gixxum:
do you really not believe us or what?

YOU NEED ACTIVESYNC TO FLASH THE ROM

so yes...it works...just fine...

I hope is not a noob question, I searched and found nothing about this problem!

At the phone band options I have:

Auto

*UMTS(900+2100)+GSM(900+1800)

*UMTS(850+1900)+GSM(850+1900)

*UMTS(850+2100)+GSM(900+1800)

*UMTS(850)+GSM(900+1800)

*UMTS(1700)

The question is how do I get UMTS(1700+2100)+GSM(850)????????

If anyone knows how please help me, I can't get the 3G to work

The Diamond I have is made in Taiwan and a bought it at an T-Mobile shop!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] stepw:
You can't without soldering RF amplifiers from a G1 to handle t-Mobile UMTS frequences.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] ND4SPD:
Actually editing the Radio ROM would do so. I contacted jockyw2001 awhile ago about doing so and he said that there are no tools currently available for us to edit the chipset microcode in order to do so, even though the rest of the process is supposedly easy.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] randyrubb:
what ROM have you

Hello you wrote

At the phone band options I have:

Auto

*UMTS(900+2100)+GSM(900+1800)

*UMTS(850+1900)+GSM(850+1900)

*UMTS(800+2100)

*UMTS(850+2100)+GSM(900+1800)

*UMTS(850)+GSM(900+1800)

[Touch Pro, Fuze General] gadgetdad:
Personally I use my kids voices for all my tones. I created them through the built in voice recorder and went with it. Your problem may lie in the audiopara file not being loud enough for you. Do a search on replacing audiopara3 or check out arup's rre rom thread in development section he has a great light audio boost cab that does wonders.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] chetmichaels:
oh ya i can adjust the gain to make it louder, but a sneeze just kinda goes unnoticed anyway. i was looking for ideas for cool tones.

I'm sure this is going to sound like a bizarre problem but I can not find anywhere on my phone my text messaging application. I recently installed hyperdragon IV, some spd software, pocketcm, and kaiser tweaks. I decided I didn't want pocketcm and uninstalled it and to my recollection it seems like the text message app wasn't there after that, but I'm not certain b/c I don't text that often. I've opened the messages folder and all that shows up is my outlook email and my exchange server. I'd really like to try to avoid reinstalling the rom if possible. I need some help. Any ideas?
[Touch GSM General] _Tim:
I recently installed skyfire then fring on my touch and after i installed fring my wifi kept getting stuck on connecting and wouldn't progress any further. I uninstalled fring and it worked again but then it started doing it again so i uninstalled skyfire and now it says connecting for a second then goes back to unavailable when connecting to a network i know is there. I also don't think its showing networks in range.
[Touch GSM General] _Tim:
I have still not solved this.

Is there any way i can reset my WIFI settings? or can someone suggest any registry settings that might be stuffed up?
[Touch GSM General] _Tim:
This problem seems to have solved it's self after my battery completely went flat and i took the battery out then put it back in and charged it again. If your having a similar problem, try that.

I just did the task of making a few of my apps cache moved to my SD card. I was wondering if Last.FM and AndNav have cache folders, and if so, any tutorial on how to have them moved?
[G1 Android Development] Smokuevo:
last fm the official app of it does have it under

/data/data/last.fm.android

about andnav i have no idea hasnt used it.. but u would do

su

cd /data/data/last.fm.android

rm -R cache

mkdir /sdcard/cache/lastfmCache

ln -s /sdcard/cache/lastfmCache cache

exit
[G1 Android Development] TheBlur:
Correction to your step 1

It should be cd /data/data/fm.last.android

btw - here are others that can be moved to the SD card the same way. I'm sure there are others which i haven't installed yet.

Would this put all your apps cache on the sdcard? Also what command can I type to see what cache folders I have on my phone for my programs?

Anyone know the one for Myspace? My sister uses it and the cache is eating my internal space (I'm holding off on moving the apps to my sd because when I was making the partition, Paragon froze and I had to reinstall Vista :mad:)
[G1 Android Development] speoples20:
reverse cache move

Ok so I moved the youtube cache to my sdcard. Now it won't play videos at all. How do I move the cache back to the phone?

I did:

cd /data/data/com.google.android.youtube

rm -R cache

mkdir /sdcard/cache/youtubeCache

ln -s /sdcard/cache/youtubeCache cache

How do I move it back? And can you not have the youtube cache on the sdcard?
[G1 Android Development] TheBlur:
Just go to Settings --> Applications --> Manage Applications --> YouTube --> Clear data

That should reset it.
[G1 Android Development] speoples20:
Bah I completely forgot about that. Well youtube is working again, anyway to put youtube cache on the sdcard?

[Touch HD General] Magster:
I have a problem with my Touch HD in the way that everytime the screen shuts down the GPS seems to shut down. Regardless if I Push the power button or if I let it shut down by itself.

For example if I'm recording a track it will make a straight line from the point where the screen shuts down to the point where I turn it on.

I'm using Garmin Mobile XT and Kartex (a software from the Swedish lantmäteriet).

Have been using both softwares on my old E-ten Glofiish X800 and it worked fine.

[Touch HD General] johnpatcher:
I think the problem is that its not the screen that turns off, but your device is going into suspend mode.

You will need an application which prevents the suspend mode and turns just the display off.
[Touch HD General] poga:
Is there a way to keep the GPS on in suspend mode?

Is there a way to change the registry so the GPS would not shut down in suspend mode? If not, what application would you recommend to use to only turn of display but not put the device in the suspend mode?

Install MobileMagic from here,

I was just about to suggest the same thing. Mobile Magic allow for GPS to work while in suspended mode. There is even a feature that automatically calls upon what ever GPS app you have to start automatically when GPS signals are detected. Pretty cool not to mention a slue of other features this nifty app has.
[Touch HD General] poga:
Thanks gadgetuk437 and band27! Great app although a little bit too "robust" as I don't need the screen rotation & all other features. I guess I will only start it when I need to use GPS.

I am in the same boat using GPS Watch which provides a track which can be outputted to Google Earth :D

Is there a registry hack that will allow the GPS to continue to be operated when powered off?
