Whats the record for replacements? - 8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General

1st - Stylus holder failed after 4 days
2nd - Alignment knackered
Will be phoning for a replacement tomorrow.
Is there actually anyone here who has had more than three?
I'm wondering if I made a BIG mistake!

dont worry
DOnt worry - sometimes you get unlucky.
My first one has been fine but I had about 4 MDAIIIs before I got one that actually worked properly. DOnt take it personally - its a great device.

1st: Some keys on the keyboard not always responding, very bad screen alignment issues from the beginning (HT630)
2nd: Power button too deeply recessed - could not turn on device with a finger, needed (long) fingernail (HT626)
3rd: Touchscreen stopped responding whenever device became warm (HT626)
4th: working fine so far - keeping fingers crossed (HT630)
Cheers

im awaiting my 3rd replacment.
and it will be my last (whether its fine and dandy (keeping) or faulty (get a different handset) as much as i'd hate to say!

Reading this forum, that inevitably covers posts about problems disproportionately, I'm sure I can be forgiven for being utterly convinced that I must have the record for replacement devices. Oh yes indeeedy a record breaking zero replacements - smug grin.
Hate mail not welcome

^^^ bastard!

my 8525 has been working great.. there are a few quirks here and there, but nothing major to replace.. its been 2 weeks now and so far so good... and i second the unlucky situations... when i get the 2125 smartphone from cingular, i think its the farraday or something like that i went through 6 replacements, then gave up on it and b!tched and B!tched at them for 3 months till they gave in and gave me the 8125/wizard for free

HALF FRONT of WIZARD Slightly ROCKING,MOVING

hi wizard brothers n sisters, just got my BNew imate kjam last week and it kinda irritate me, the FRONT(i mean the half front that has the screen,button etc.) of the kjam is quite loosen, not tight enough,and it's moving a little bit,when you rock it.hope you understand what i mean.
does anyBODY here have the same WIZARD problem? is this NORMAL or WHAT?
it's just a little tiny bit of movement,but it's REALLT IRRITATE me:evil: ,m very sorry,m just a 99% perfectionist,but if this is normal then i accept for the love of wizard.
i didn't bought HERMES yet because it's still NEW in the market,maybe m gonna w8t until the BUGS decrease around 90%
does anybody experience this? it's like when your in portrait mode,the front is not that quite lock toght,it's moving a VERY little bit. so is this NORMAL?
quite confusing....

@ ArtXT
I don't know if your problem is similar to my Qtek 9100 (sounds like it might be), basically my top housing(screen and buttons) had a small gap between the it and the keyboard when in "portrait mode" and sort of had a rocking motion as you mentioned when pressing on the "call" and "end" buttons or anywhere in the vicinity, but I thought nothing of it at the time (still annoyed me though :wink: ), and 9 months later it developed an annoying creaking noise everytime I pushed on the "end call" button or anywhere just below the buttons. I compared it my friend's MDA and noticed that his had no gap between the keyboard and screen housing what so ever (nice and snug). So, being under the Qtek 2 year warranty I sent it in for repairs via Sound Solutions AM, about 3 weeks ago and is on its way back. The repair company noted that the it was due to a "poor fit" and it being "out of shape" and was covered under warranty. I should be getting it back hopefully this week if not early next week and will post the results...In the meanwhile I feel that you should consider exchanging it or sending it in for warranty repairs....that's just me, after seeing my friends MDA, it was a no brainer for me, hope this helps.
Regards,
tnx for the reply bro, but my problem is not like that,mine has a little gap also,but very very little,what i mean is the lower part lock mechanism of my kjam is some some of NOT TIGHT. maybe i'll just bring it back for some service maintenance,my friend to me that he got the same problem and doesn't annoy him,he said get use to it bec. it's a mechanism device so xpect that in the future,he said the important thing is it runs 100%, and it's true,the performance,software and hardware are both running 100% wild.maybe it's me that has a problem attitude of such device. :lol:

Touch screen broke

Hi! I Love ( D ) my TD2... to bad my touch screen broke already (2 months after purchase) without dropping it or whatever.. Screen and phone works normal.
Im just curious if there are other people having this problem jet?
Do you guys think im f*ck'd? or does htc replace touchscreens within warranty?
if not; Does anybody know what the costs may be for replacing a touchscreen? And is it possible to replace only the touchscreen or must the whole screen be replaced?
A lot of questions , i know.. hope someone can give me answers.
Thank you!
new screen
see here, a similar discussion: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=537654
if the screen broke and it was not your fault, warranty should cover that ... it seems that buying a new screen and putting it is easy ...
thnx for reply georgeono! guess i'll try warranty first.
same here...touch screen cannot sense any form of touch
Hm.. to bad man. when i put my phone under a bright lamp or in the sun i can see some kind of liquid under the screen(so i know its definitely broke..), same at yours? did you contact warranty jet?
i guess the screen is just not that strong, cause i have treated this phone much much better then my old htc touch and that touchscreen is still working..
my batt went flat...
I go home and charge it..
before full charge, I sms and it is not working anymore..
Soft reset or hard reset no use..
Next day, I see the "liquid" screen under sunlight...
I also take care of it well as this is my first pda and most expensive hp i ever bought...
Going to sent in on this coming thursday...
How about ur warranty, void or consider under warranty??
havent found time jet to send it in but i'll send it tomorrow so i'll let you know. .
I have had the same problem. I sent it back last Friday and have had notification on Monday that it arrived at HTC, but the tracking details they gave me don't seem to do anything. They say it'll be 5 to 10 working days before I get it back.
The engineer on the phone pretty much straight away described the problem as 'LCD Leak' and that was also stated on the postage label they sent through to me.
I found a short term fix for the problem before i sent it off: When you see the touch screen has the patch of liquid inside, use a piece of sellotape or other sticky tape and gently pull the touchscreen outwards away from the phone and it becomes usable again as long as no fluid is touching the screen any longer.
Hope this makes sense.
edit: I got my phone back and the same problem was still occurring - it looked like they had simply take taken the screen off and put it back on again. It has gone back again, but hopefully this time they will actually look at it.
hm i tried your fix but it didnt work for me ..thnx for the tip anyway!
Same like here I think:

I had to sent it back for a repair. Right now my repaired phone starts to get the problem again

i had the same problem and i can tell you this is caused by too much pressure on the screen. it seems the screen does fall into the phonecase and therefore free itself from the glass. take care with that phone in the pocket!! also the manual says, take out the phone of the pocket when you sit down!! i was shocked when i read that... i mean.. wtf.. what is the idea of a mobile phone which you cant have in your pocket???
haha , and they used to call it a pocket pc! too bad i havent read the manual BEFORE i bought this fragile peace of sh..

Your just a very unlucky man...
I really love my TD2 and it's working as it should be.
I do not use a case and have it just "naked" in my pocket (without keys and other stuff in my pocket) and its no problem, no scratch...
And i don't call it fragile, ok... it can break easier than a rock in your pockey but still..... I don't know how your TD2 is but mine cant bend a 1/2 mm, it's pretty though.
Phone fixed.... For now
I have received my phone back after a second trip back to HTC and it appears that they have replaced the whole frontage of the phone as a tiny scuff on the metal bit and a miniscule scratch on the screen have gone. The internals of the phone are the same as it has the same serial number and IMEI number.
Its all working so far, I've had no evidence of the fluid in the screen as yet and hope not to again!
Send it back and it will be mended eventually!
Had a similar problem, after 20 days the display broke (not on the surface but under it) because of...who knows, maybe direct sunlight since it was on the seat of my car.
Now, after reading the post, I see it's not a singular problem but also other lucky customers are dealing with it.
The real problem is HTC service. I contacted HTC Italy and they told me to take the PDA to a collection point along with a letter describing what happened since I asked for the warranty cover. After 20 days they told me I have to pay 126€ to repair my D2 because the service decided that it was due to my manomission (aka : you have lied to us). After some enraged mails I sent to them, they replied me I should contact HTC in UK to have the warranty. I decided to pay to have my phone back quickly but until yesterday no answer.
Today I sent another email and HTC replied telling me that the service center is closed for holidays until 24th...
I let you imagine how disappointed I am with HTC and they call it HTC Service Excellence.
Ok, it was my fault...I knew I had to buy the spare part on my own and change the LCD but I trusted the HTC name...big big big mistake!
Just consider those experiences in case you think to send your phone back to HTC service...I will never do this again!
Thank you guys, now I know for sure it was not my fault.
I have my TD2 now 3 month and I recognize the problem others mention. Although this problem is a fault, the system is not broken.
When the phone blocks, look for the "liquid" below the screen. It can be very small to fingertip size. The screen is not broken but the touch screen sticks to the display screen. It occurs by applying some force while using the touch screen. Of course this should not happen but it locks the phone or results in unpredictable touch inputs. IT IS NOT BROKEN.
It can be easily solved. Just wipe, with some pressure, with your thumb over the touch screen starting from well below till above the affected area. The touch screen detaches from the display screen and everything works again.
The solution would be a mod by HTC to prevent the two screen from sticking together.
I hope this helps by preventing people to send their phone back and foreward unnescessary.
Just send in my TD2 today for the same reason. Hope they wont simply "lift the surface up" and send it back to me.
repaired!
i had to wait a long time, but i got a message today that the phone is repaired within the warranty by an external repair service. Hopefully the problem is solved now, but im very glad to hear its not gonna cost me 200 euro's or so!
for the dutch : ondanks alle slechte verhalen over dynafix (volgens mij de gebruikelijke repair service voor een htc telefoon in nederland) is het toestel gewoon gerepareerd zonder onzin over drukschade etc. !
update
got my phone back yesterday , in fact they replaced my old phone with a brand new one! Totally free of costs. So i'm a total htc fan again!

Are you sure it's new? I thought they replaced mine as well (after a LOT of phone calls and hassle), but the serial number is still the same.
The counters had been reset, so at first I thought it was a brand new one...

My touchscreen has died... Argh!

Hi all,
Well, it seems my phone has given up the ghost and died on me. The phone boots up, and the screen comes on, but it is completely unresponsive to touch. THe hardware buttons are working though. Has this happened to anyone else? I've taken good care of my phone - always in the case - originally pouch then HTC flip case, never dropped, and kept well away from water. I never had a serious problem with the phone before, now this happens. It's so frustrating - only had it for 6 weeks! Now have to send it all the way back to Singapore and wait for them to sort it out and send it back. Any recommendations?
Thanks,
David
Try a HardReset, see if that fixes it. Had this issue 2 times when I had my HTC TyTN II.
Soft-Reset or HardReset.... First try the soft tho.
And on what ROM are you?
I've done a soft and a hard reset - no go, still down. Using official 1.66 ROM. Any ideas?
You're not operating in an extremely-cold environment are you? The digitizer drops in performance when it's cold.
Nor are you wearing gloves? With it being a capacitive device it relies on the natural electronic flow of your body to disrupt the electro-magnetic field the digitizer produces. Unless you're wearing very thin gloves, then gloves will stop the screen 'seeing' your finger.
Can't really think of anything else that may help.
If it's not environmental and you can't find any software causes, then your digitizer most likely has kicked the dust.
Definitely not in a cold environment - live in Durban in the tropics... And so no gloves either. If it is the digitiser, would it be covered by the warranty?
Yes it should be covered by the warranty.

it has also happened to me! I have had to send him/it in guarantee because it deals with problem hrdware (recognized in many models by the htc). They will handle the substitution of the display and other parts hardware.
P.S.: to me you/he/she has begun not to work in days with high damp and cold
Well, we've had a long spell of very hot weather and evening thunderstorms. Could being in a cool airconditioned environment and then going out into the humid outdoors have been the cause of the problems?

wtf.. mine just did this today also?...
I worked just fine a few hours ago here in my office. But now... nothing.
I also take really good care of my phone, had it for ~3 months now and not even a small nick or anything on it.
just did a hardreset on mine also. And still no life.
touch screen is totally dead - gonna send mine in for repairs then.
Maybe it's a conspiracy by HTC... What environmental conditions were you under?

well its ~1c outside rigth now but it has been in a nice warm office all day, for like 3 hours or so before it broke
Maybe it's the transition from warm to cold and back that broke our phones. If it is, what can be done to prevent it happening again?

nothing i guess. Its not like mine has been that cold...
my trip this morning
6.30 am - locked my door and walked like 10 meters to my car, got in turned the heater on and had it running a podcast
7.45 am - arrived at work and walked like 50 meters to the front door
~11 am - phone display stopped working
So its not like i have been outside that much for it to get really cold. I always carry it in my front pocket.
Oh great, yet another potential problem I'll have to look out for.

well tbh i dont think its a hot/cold problem. It has been even colder for the last few months and it has never missed a beat. I agree that the coincidence is almost off the charts. But it may just be a manufacturing problem with some of them and CloneboyZA and i just have bad luck.
I thought I'd been lucky enough to get a decent one, but guess it was not to be...
Same thing happened to me a couple of weeks ago.
Sent it to repair and they swapped the screen.

'Splodge' on screen

Splodge, was the only way I could describe it...take a look at the attached photo.
I'm certain I have seen someone else post this before.
It just happened randomly! Was fine all day yesterday, then picked my phone up to answer it last night, and after the phone call had ended I saw this on the screen...
Touch screen still works, and you can still see underneath it, its less visible when the back light is on. Of course when it's off, you can see the effect it has!
So...what is it? Easily fixed or what?
Like I said, I'm sure I have seen this posted by someone else before...
Hehe... nice one. It will most likely disappear if you gently pull the glass with a suction cup.
Brgds... /Tubgirl
Suction cup thing works but then it comes back.
HTC said it would be out of warrenty :S and they would have to look at it first.
O2 however, said if its in warrenty (which it is) then they will get it repaired and supply a courtesy handset while they have it.
i had one the same size it has slowly gone to half the size 5 pence piece but o2 said its not under warrenty and i work for a major phone retailer and my repairs guy said it may so im very unsure wuld have re flash it as its hspl grrr

interesting, well I'm taking it to the O2 store next week, so will see what they say, will keep the email i had off them saying they will as backup!
It has reduced in size, but still has the rainbow pattern in the middle.
I had a similar screen problem however it didnt look anywhere near as bad as yours. Mine had slight discolouration mostly noticable on white backgrounds. Pressing the screen a little bit harder than normal created the sort of effect you get when pressing the screen of a calculator (dont know what to call it) I took mine to the o2 shop with a different fault and also mentioned this fault. I got it back 6 days later but they hadnt fixed the screen problem. I sent it off again then and there and 6 days later i got a new phone.
O2 now have my HD2
Been given a nasty old Nokia phone as a temp...forgot how small some screens are...lol
should take 7-10 days they said...so fingers crossed...
Any way of fixing this problem without sending it back as this has happened to my cousins HTC HD2, kind of glad it didn't happen to mine lol, any quick fixes to know about?
I've had the same with my HD2.
They fixed it for me (new screen)

Was actually thinking about this, then tried to figure out how it happened, he goes it was one of two things, since he considers himself a bit of a playboy lol, he tells this tale of a girl sitting in his lap and it happened or could have been wetness (kind of goes hand in hand don't you think lol).. how does this problem usually occur?

Well anyway! For me it was very random. The phone was fine all day at work, I had a phone call in the evening, after the phone call I just looked at my phone, and there it was...
Some people have said its caused my the heat of the battery and signal, dunno.
Its a very thin space between the battery and the back of the screen, so maybe thats true.
I can't see how over pressure can cause it as its a glass screen, and glass doesn't bend like plastic.
I had a smaller of these newton rings at the center. Much smaller than yours.
Suddenly one day it disappeared.
It was during summer and I thought it was probably because of the heat.

Hasn't arrived at the store yet, waiting for a phone call, fingers crossed for today! that would be exactly a week.
Hope its fixed soon for you, its interesting about the battery and heat, my hd2 gets warm below the battery and that is also below the main area your problem is on, I suspect its down to a screen fault myself.

I bought my Leo December 31st, 2009.
I dont have touch screen problem until now
so r u the only one ???
No problem here, since Jan '10, was a little too sensitive on 1.42 rom, but no problem since.
When you are reading about how everyone has the problem, don't forget only people with the problem post, no one starts a new thread about how few issues they have.
Works Fine... Bought Late 2010.. Second Version (Yellow Reset)
i have mine since late 2009 (Leo eu) and used it extremely, flashed several wm roms, several android builds and once wp7. I NEVER had a touch screen issue, neither a hard button issues.
the only thing is that I just ordered a mugen battery, mine become to be a bit short.
I am sure 95% of us here are happy with the quality of this product.
but we always here in forums people that have problems, not those who dont need anything.
After 15 days my HTC HD2 repaired, just do not know what is left of the old phone when I look at what is replaced. Like it was smashed by a truck!

Had mine since November 2009 and had 0 hardware problems with it. Bear in mind that:
There is a thread exactly the same of this that has been and gone. It even had a poll on it
People don't start threads to say their phone is working correctly, so most threads are about problems. It does not mean that everyone is having problems.
Got mine back from lending it to a cousin, still working fine from when I bought it in April.
My HD2 works fine even though it was a second hand one with a smashed glass...
Had mine since last year, no problems.

I too have the revision version with yellow reset (earlier version has red)
Went out of my way to make sure it was revision version.
So far excellent, screen & buttons are perfect to date. Most people I know who ended up with screen issue had early version but most had also dropped there HD2 on more than one occasion.
Problem with these compact & cutting edge devices is they like a gentle life, drop them a few times (maybe just once!) & handle them roughly will limit lifespan greatly.
Heat in these devices can get quite hight too, I charge mine screen side down so heat can dissipate through heat-sink battery door rather than soak into motherboard & screen. I do the same when using it as a wifi GPRS internet modem for my notebook & also make sure it is in a cool spot (have done this since had a kaiser & used it for 5>6hr wifi modem sessions), Data/WiFi connection & charging simultaneously in the 34°C heat of BKK tests a devices cooling near its limits.
i have one with the yellow reset button and last night the touch screen stop working suddenly after installing google I/O android app.. man, i just cant express my feeling when i tried to unlock it and nothing happened
I really fail to see why we need a thread where people are expected to post;
"My device is working just fine...."
I really dont think this touchscreen problem is that widespread considering the amount of people who own HD2's compared to a handful of posts about it on XDA.
Im even less convinced that the colour of one tiny plastic component bears any relation to whether or not your touch screen is going to fail.

yellow reset has revised motherboard & different screen supplier.
HD2 model had a high level of returns, not to the point of a recall but enough for some networks to have a serious moan to HTC.
I have 7 workers on HD2's, 2 have had service repairs due to unresponsive screen so the problem is real.

Ok, that would make a certain amount of sense, thanks for bringing that up as I'd never noticed that being mentioned on the forums before.
That said, I still dont see the need for a "still working" thread. There are numerous threads for those with the screen issue to post in.
Thanks again for the info though
Edit;
While Im here, I might as well add;
Had mine since launch, T8585, has been no issues whatsoever.

Kind of agree but to see how many users have had a 2 year trouble free life span is interesting.
Think the revision details can be seen in wiki or HD2 tips thread.
