[Galaxy S I9000 General] lordcalin:
Actually I got a full original box, phone had all protective covers in place over every slot, new headphones, battery and charger, and all new still wrapped documentation.

I kept the headphones, returned everything else with the broken phone in the same box.

----

On another note, I got my $100 credit Dec 28th, I finally got my new phone today... so much for 3-5 business days, now i'm chasing them to reverse my monthly charges since they couldn't deliver me a working phone for the entire month.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] pagey1:
I just got off the phone with Bell after they called me, and they gave me my $100 credit that I never got as they started doing that after mine was sent away, they also paid for a months service, and the cost to ship my phone away for repair, worked out to about a $150
[Galaxy S I9000 General] DS1495:
I just called Samsung, and they gave me the full warranty I deserve EVEN without the original receipt. The customer service was quick and helpful, it really was a painless experience. So they sent me the UPS shipping label.

But I have one problem, there are no instructions as to where to send the package to....haha. The customer service rep said that that email would include all of the necassary information..I guess not. Should I call back?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] arr0ww:
Nice, glad you got it all sorted out.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] DS1495:
Yes, it was suprisingly easy. I was only put on hold for about a minute too!

Anyways, should I call back to receive the information I need?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] arr0ww:
I would, that last thing you want is a bill for the phone because it got sent to the wrong place or you waited to long.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] arr0ww:
update in the first post
[Galaxy S I9000 General] dcarr622:
I had the SD card on one of my Galaxy S's fail (the newer one that I've only flashed once, ironically...my main one which has been flashed many dozens of times is rock solid).

The eBay seller offered to take it back and have it repaired/replaced for me so I sent it yesterday. Of course I had to pay $27 to ship w/ insurance back to Canada :mad:

Would it have been possible to send it directly to Samsung? Would they prepay shipping from the United States? Is so that probably would be faster but I'd like to know in case I have to do this again.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] DS1495:
Well nevermind about me not knowing where to send it, the address is on the UPS label that I just printed off. It gets sent to St-Laurent, Quebec.

But does anyone know how to package the phone for returns? (Do I just put everything back in the original box (charger, USB cable, instructions, and of course the phone itself) then put it in one of those UPS package sleeve thingies?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] JJustin:
I received mine via purolator along with a return slip so I brought the box (everything inside) to purolator along with the shipping label. They packaged it for me at the store and that was it.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] DvTonder:
the first replacement phone they sent me was in an unmarked box, in bubblewrap, with just the battery and the charger. The phone turned out to be defective and I got sent another replacement. The second one was all there, in manufacturer box, manuals etc, just as you get them in the store.

I suspect the ones that arrive in bubblewrap are refurbished ones while the ones in the original boxes are in fact new.

My sound is not working after I flashed cognition 2.3b8.

Means, music player doesnt make sound. Phone doesnt ring. All I can do is talk on it and it vibrates.

Ideas?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] dnguyen527:
Now the phone rings and i get notifications for email.

Something super odd happened, I went to google voice and pressed play to hear a voice message and it played the music from the music player.

Thats the only way I can hear music....

[Droid Incredible General] patsfan1130:
With the recent re open of the beta I decided to go ahead and try it out. After a couple of days I am not that impressed. I like SlideIT better. I find SlideIT to be more fluid and intuitive. Swype doesn't seem to know some of the simpliest of words. The word "too" for example. It wants to write "to". It won't even give me an option for "too". Maybe I am doing something wrong.

Going back to my SlideIT
[Droid Incredible General] wpbear:
I think it is what you are used to and comfortable with. I have both and like Swype better but if Swype started charging me or broke then I would use SlideIt everyday. SlideIt also complains at the way I type/slide and give false words. I get used to the way each works and either way it is better than the stock keyboard.
[Droid Incredible General] RMarkwald:
When doing words with the same letter twice (ex. too), when you "swype" to the letter "o", you have to do a circular motion on it. This tells Swype that you want that letter (the letter "O" in this case) twice, thus spelling the word "too". It is in the tutorial.
[Droid Incredible General] patsfan1130:
Good point! I agree, I'm definately more comfortable with SlideIT. Maybe I should give it some more time. I don't see much difference in overall functionality between the 2.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wolf_vx:
Hello everyone.

I have a very irritating problem. My HD2 doesn't want to read any MicroSDs any more. I have 2 of them. One is 2gb SanDisk and the other one is 16gb class 4 Silicon Power. I have tried completely(long) formatting 2gb carcd but that didn't solve the problem. I have recently updated Radio, some time before the problem, not sure how long before, but i have tried 3 different Radio updates varrying in versions but that didn't help either. Hard Reset didn't solve it. Before this problem has occured I have managed to drop it from hieght of around 1 meter(not more for sure) but I don't think that it is the cause of this.

So does anyone know how to solve the problem. I am not to fond of sending it to repair center as it will take way too long to do so. I also do not wish to opperate on my phone as i do not want to void warranty.

Thanks in advance.
[Epic 4G General] Xerexis:
I have a friend of mine that has an EVO and a new Kernel just rolled out for their phone. Battery life is unbelievable 2 days unplugged and 60% battery life still. Proof can be found here: h**p://184.72.239.143/mu/b8fdf248-0e64-0208.jpg

The info for the Kernel is found here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=876590

Any way this can be modified for Epic. Maybe some of the info found here can assist with future development.
[Epic 4G General] Koadic:
I very much doubt it, but I am in no way any kind of developer, dont even play one on tv.

Anyway, this isnt anything special... I have posted similar results using the DK17 rom with no battery saver programs or killing any applications. You can see my post HERE with screenshots. 4 days, 12 hours at 5% left. Might even get better when the source code drops for 2.2 and they start creating custom kernels.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] chiliu78:
Currently have my G Tablet flashed with TnT Lite 3.0 but this happened before the update. Anyway, I think it has to do with the time setting but I'm not 100% sure. Prior to this error, I was able to log on to the following Twitter apps:

1. Seesmic

2. Dolphin Tweet (twitter add-on to Dolphin HD browser)

3. TweetDeck

Now I can only log onto TweetDeck. For Seesmic and Dolphin Tweet, it tells me that my password is incorrect.

My assumption regarding the time is due to having Toutier installed before. It logged on fine and now it's saying that my password is incorrect and to check my time. ???

Anyone else having this problem or would like to test it?

I only rooted this phone after applying the first OTA upgrade to 2.2. But I seem to be on Version.2.3.9.MB810.Verizon.en.US which according my googling is not the OTA version and neither the latest version out there.

What are my options to get the latest OS and bring my phone inline for future upgrades...?
[Droid X General] SysAdmin-X:
it sounds like you are back 2 OTA's. Check rootz wiki for the 2.3.15 sbf and run this uaing rsd lite 4.8 and then when your phone has rebooted, go to settings-->about phone-->check for updates. You should be able to.download the 2.3.40 update which is android 2.2.1

And now for some real answers...

1) Change animations and transitions to fast.

2) Change your DNS Servers to 208.67.222.222 and 208.67.220.220

3) Change VM Heap size to 24.

4) Overclock using SetCPU.

5) Use Swapper2 to create a linux swap file.

6) Use a fast kernel that improves r/w speeds such as Snap 7.6 Turbo.

7) Create an ext 4 partition on your SD Card and flash cm7 RC0.

These will all make your EVO much faster.

I can rename the original bootanimation.zip to bootanimation1.zip using adb.

put when i try to push the new file i get

failed to copy 'bootanimation.zip' to '/system/media/bootanimation.zip': Permission denied"
