[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DiLLio:
Hello Guys and Girls,

I recently sent my X1 back to SE for repair as the screen was glitching whilst in active calls (something I couldn't fix through repeated flashing from SE's update service).

I gave the call centre a ring and they advised me to send the unit to my nearest service centre, which I did. At the start of the week, I received an email from the service centre which read "Notification that unit is unrepairable" as the subject and the first thought that popped in to my head was new handset.. Lovely! Reading the email, I found the engineer had concluded that my unit was "Un-Repairable under the Warranty of the Manufacturer" and I was gob smacked, that was definitely not the response I was expecting.

So I gave the call centre a ring for an explanation of the reason and the lady pointed out that the engineer had found cracks in the resin. Now, this is not the case resin that most have complained about but the resin used to cover the main board's components. Yeah I've dropped the phone a few times but no more than most and it's usually in a sleeve when it does fall, so consumer damage seems like a poor excuse! So I asked the lady to escalate my problem because I don't believe that it was caused by me.

I received a letter from SE (sent recorded, signed for!) simply re-iterating what the lady on the phone had said to me and that "Unfortunately we are unable to comment as to how any form of damage has occurred we can only comment on the findings upon completion of the investigation". The best she could offer me was "a gesture of goodwill" by sending my unrepaired handset back free of charge (otherwise 11.75GBP).

I don't really care if they repair or replace, I just want my X1 back in a working condition. What can I do to make that happen? Any hints or tips I can take on board before I respond?

P.S: I’m having to use a Nokia 2330 until this is resolved!

Regards,

- DiLLio

Hi,

first of all: I'm sorry to hear that your xperia x1 is not working properly anymore. All I can say is that its gonna be a tough fight since...

what else is there to say? Reading your post in my eyes you could have caused the damage and here it really is goodwill you have to count on. And obviously it's too expensive for them to repair under warranty...so they will do everything to blame the damage on you...In my opinion you could only ask what they want for the reparation.

Good Luck!
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sonus:
Uhm, dude, you dropped the phone... That's pretty much there is to it. Dropping a phone, will break it over time. Stop being clumbsy, in the year and a half, I've dropped my X1 once, and that was bc it fell out of my coat pocket - luckily it was in a leather pouch.

Your only option is really to try and convince SE that the resin cracks are stress cracks from normal wear and tear, but that's going to be pretty much impossible to do if you told them you dropped it, or if your casing is all messed up from drop marks.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DiLLio:
Thanks for the replies. I stand by the fact that it wasnt because of its time with the floor.

After receiving my phone back from K+N, I've had an engineer open it so that I can see and snap some pictures of the main board and satisty myself that it is infact what they say.

And would you believe it, not a mark on the main board. Nothing.

Gave a SE a call again and argued my point. Apparantly I won't be able to photograph these cracks. Why? Because they aren't visible to cameras. Haha! Okay, so what are they visbile to?!

"Resin which portects the components" would be the top coating/layer and, atleast, indeed be visible to the naked eye. They used a clear resin to coat the main board which would explain why a WORKING main board would show no signs; however, a stressed clear resin would turn opaque and they claim cracks in the resin would definately be visible. We saw nothing!

I've attached the photos and I'd love some insight into what we've missed.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] comeradealexi:
Well now you've definatley voided your warranty if you took it apart...

They wouldnt try and fake anything - i've sent my Xpera to K and N about 3 times now and every time they've got it back to me within a week - First time was cracks - second was keyboard and third was camera. I'm sure these people know what they are talking about - all you can do now is make do.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DiLLio:
I had my local phone repair shop do it for me, cost me 10GBP just for that!

I agree, that would be highly illegal and immoral, but I dont believe that every one of their engineers is adequately capable of fault finding correctly. In my case, I got one who cant tell left from right. Can you see these cracks that they claim, or anything off on the main board for that matter?
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dhaddow:
I have exactly the same problem. Only difference is mine has never been dropped. The woman in the call centre said she would escalate it. Let's wait and see. :mad:
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DiLLio:
Well they clearly hadn't even bothered to open mine up so I hope they do that for you. If your casing is showing signs of cracking, theres a lengthy thread on here complaining about the build quality of the outer case.

The original issue I was having disappeared after I had the unit independently inspected so I solved the problem without SE :) Nice to know that they actually check the devices before they make their decisions though(!)

If you're having the same issue, I can only assume some sort of undue pressure is being put on a connection/component and causing the distortion on the screen. Else, it really is a more costly fault!
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Biges:
For cases like this I have a legal insurance (lawyers, expert's testimonies...). Not that I actually had to resort to it, but in case I'd have to... heh. But newer admit you had dropped your phone, no, no, you always kept it in a secured leather box barely using it at all :D
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dhaddow:
This is a different issue. It's not the case thats cracked it the resin thats cracked.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dhaddow:
Nobody got any advice?
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deccy:
Hi i have just had a letter back from K & N saying my Sony W995 was not repairable under manufacturers warrenty, due to the engineer finding cracks in the resin. Is this a standard excuse as i have never dropped my phone and the reason for returning it to Sony was the Number 3 on the keypad was not working.

I have spoken to a girl on the phone and she says she will escilated the problem and has gave me a reference number lets see what happens.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deccy:
As I expected i got a letter back from sony saying they stand by their decision that the warrenty did not cover the repair of my phone as crack were found in the resin and as a gesture of goodwill they would return my phone unrepaired free of charge.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ghostfaced:
So I got 2.1 installed and everything has been great so far. However I can't seem to sync with Facebook. It takes my credentials just fine and I can run the app. But when I try to link a Contact with their Facebook profile (to see their updates and sync their profile pic) it doesn't work. I get to the "select a profile" screen and it doesn't list any of my friends, even when I search.

Is anybody else either having this issue or able to sync successfully? And help would be greatly appreciated!
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sickbox:
Works fine for me.

Some people weren't showing up in my contacts yesterday tho. But today it's fine and I was able to link all my contacts or show facebook contacts.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smgrimes:
it took a bit for everything to sync over, but as of now I have no sync issues in 2.1 for facebook and or anything else. How long ago did you setup 2.1 with fb?
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ghostfaced:
I setup my FB acct (and Google acct) as soon as I booted into 2.1 for the first time. I've tried removing the FB account, adding it back, rebooting in between, etc with no luck.

I have both "Facebook" and "Facebook for HTC Sense" enabled.

It takes my username/password fine, 'sync contacts' is checked, and it claims to sync just fine. When I tell it to manually sync, it 'runs' for about 2 seconds before saying sync complete.

When viewing a contact and sliding over to the updates 'tab', I try to link with their acct but my friends list never loads. Trying to search in it does nothing. Even when I try to view all updates in People, it shows nothing.

The Facebook app and Facebook Phonebook folder work great, but I really want to merge contacts again so it shows their FB pic automagically.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ghostfaced:
com.htc.bg has been force-closing alot. Could that have something to do with it?
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] afoulke:
I had the same issue I reinstalled the Rom then clicked the Facebook sync in setting let it sit for the night and it loaded all my friends. Search the forums this was answered in the other 2.1 leak forum.

Hy

yesterday I updated my old (and nearly forgotten) MDA2 to 5.2.28230.5.3.3 Manila

you are great!

only some very simple questions

1. Internet and mail worked yesterday - today not - without any change, what could be the reason

2. is there any program to see how many traffic I did? I have a 1 GB contract, after that the connection will be slower

3. for the foto: where can I change the folder where the pics are saved

when I touch Foto in the HOME menu the is "no foto" in the folder (the pics are in my pictures not in eigene Bilder)

for the rest - you are really great! :D

btw: do I have to change the ROM? I still have 1.60

for the RAM do I have to change to 30 MB (I found a 14 MB RAM free)

Hello !!!

i buy Hd2 more or less 2 months, and in first weeks dont install any programs, but after found this great comunity, instal few programs, games, etc...

but now i see my battery its enpty really fast, one day more or less.

I use the phone, but dont all the time, so i thing, maybe wrong, its because have too much stuff inside. can be this?!

Sorry for my bad english.

thanks in advance.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Lapom:
Possible to install programs reduce battery life.

It's the same principle as the computer and the memory.

Sorry for my bad english too.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] trepa:
ok, so if i have less programs my baterry go have more time?!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] jnlinh:
yes, more programs more power.:D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] trepa:
Ok!

so i go see few programs i go delete.

thanks for all help.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] hector_huerta:
No, it doesn't work that way, if you have more programs running at the same time, THEN it will consume more energy from your battery, but not if you have a lot of programs but not running all the time or at the same time, try checking which ones are running.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Lukasss:
Also, I read somewhere on xda that installing resident programs (programs that run all the time, like msn, taskmanagers, skype) on the SD card is also heavy on battery usage. It makes sense, the phone needs to power the sd card constantly...

I install programs that run all the time to the device memory, and not to the sd card.

Grtz

Lukas
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Marne Jr:
People this talk is ridiculous ...

Battery drainage has nothing to do with the numbers of installed programs, except if they are running all the time together ...

Probably you had made some recharges without empty the battery and it needs to recalibrate ...

Let your HD2 works until complete discharge of the battery then and just then recharge it again... after 2 complete charge and discharge it should got better again ...

Tell the result please !!!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] trepa:
i dont have too much programs run the same time. I go try put battery enpty and recharge 2 times for see if its better.

Im sorry if im "noob" in this, but if i dont know its the reason i ask.

normal its like this, without programs work.

another question: the few things i change, like the clock, icons for batery, sound, etc, icons.. this take baterry out too?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Gandalf67:
It's no matter how many applications You have installed on Your device. Only runnig progs use battery power. But, if I say "running applications" I mean not only video, games or music ones. For example: if You set up automatic e-mail receiving - battery will be empty after approx. 22 hrs.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] trepa:
no, i dont have anything for receive automatically from internet.

I already try put baterry enpty, and recharge, when i finish test say something.

So this should be pretty the same as sampeis rom, with the additions that root/su is probably correct configured in this one, and it has the hacked maps, with int. nav and MT, which the otherone doesnt have.

Would be interesting to know if MarketEnabler runs on this one :-)

These roms are pretty close to daily use if not already.

I can live (a while without) BT-support, and the camera works, just the post-snapshot preview that gets blurred, not a big deal at all

As usual, you rock Ahmsgk
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Krzysiec:
HO HO HO Can`t wait !!

Looks so promising :D Hope it is stble enough to use it ;) GREAT WORK !!

My litte suggestion ;) Maybe made one version as close to original one as possible ... without change bootscreen, without adding gallery from NEXUS to have possibility to change background in home and locksreen with HTC Album app, and so on (new bootscreen is really cool ) ;) ANYWAY U will do what U want ;) ... GREAT JOB !!

but there is a small problem. RUU needs to turn on the phone, but i cant. recovery and fastboot works, but there is somthing wrong with this phone, and i cant turn it on
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hol17:
You can have stock SPL and keep S-OFF. Security off doesn't mean you have tampered with the software and they could not void your warranty because of this. The old updates did not have S-ON; they had S-OFF and most employees of cell phone providers don't even know what this means or what an SPL is.

Extract the rom.zip file from the RUU and rename the file to SAPPIMG.zip. Put the file on an SD card and boot to HBOOT. Should be able to update. There are some tutorials on the forum.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] sychie:
but it doesnt update. hboot doesnt search file called update
