I've been reading , and many ppl are having the screen alignment issues with the hermes, it seems the older version have been the one which are majorly affected the by screen alignment bug ,
I read the wiki , can anyone tell me how do I first check the serial no. of the device without purchasing it ? I mean is it on the box itself ?
as of now which is a safer version to go for considering I am going to use dopop838 pro
you can find it on the box.
ori
thanx u
now can anyone tellme which series in 838pro dopod is safe to buy ?
I have an early HTC Tytn and have not had any problems. Contrary to many people saying don't buy anything earlier than 63x. My serial number begins with HT628Fxxxxxx and it works great. The 28 represents that the unit was manufactured the 28th week of the year I believe.
now I am confused ,it seems like luck now , that someppl got issues , some ppl just dont
my problem is going to be that I won't be able to give the device back ,since in India there are no service centres , and I am asking my brother to get it for me from hongkong
so now 628 also works , anything i should I ask my brother to look out for ?
and lucky you eagle1 , your ppc working out smooth ,it feels good doesn't it , all that hard earned cash , finally spent nicely !!
Try to stay away from HT62XXXX and HT63[1-5]XXX series ... Some of them have shown SA issues if you are unlucky ..
I bought a dopod 838pro HT636XXX last month and it's NO SA but the keyboard letter not so sensitive....
for SA free --- look for HT638XXXX up for sure, but also look for keyboard issue...
Seems to be HTC hired a lot of dumb service/QA people this time..
368xxx up it is , now let's pray for my luck , my brother will go and check it out 2morrow ,i hope they will have 368xx or above in stock !!
fnger crossed
ok pppl finger crossed , in 2 hours bro will be at the airport ,finger crossed

I'd like to upgrade my ROM to non-Q version, since I had this problem of stucking on O2 blu screen after soft resets due to hanged Phone function.

Are they good ? I would also like them to changed my screen which has some dust ?

boldi
:roll:
What's a riper ? Which web site I could check out ?
I took my unit at Wanchai Circle store(collection point) and O2 promised me 3 days SW upgrade ..
any comment ?
Thanks
I juat send it to HK for upgrade, the reason are the same as you have(phone hangs and softreset doesn't work), it is really good if they could fix the problem. anyway, my XDAII is from synergy I think
Sent it Saturday PM and got it Tuesday PM...
Talked to Debbie Cheung and she's good !
SW is now 14 from 13... feels faster..
But my unit had been opened ...??? :x
Just wondering why... ? will call them tomorrow..
Anyone try to install the update with XDAII(i-mate one),It make my XDA II not vibrate!!
A bit offtopic for this thread...
Interesting to see quite a few people in HK with XDA. Anyone knows if there's any good shops/places in HK to buy (cheap?) 2nd hand XDAs?
Ok, here's the story.
Last year, I had a friend of mine to buy for me an Imate Jasjar, it worked fine for a few weeks till that screen alignment problem kicked in. It was from dubai so I had her return it to the seller, they "repaired" it. Worked fine for 2 days then again, the screen alignment problem kicked in. I asked it to be replaced and they said they wouldn't.
Being desperate, I tried the card solution and even the screw fix, none worked... if it did, the fix would last for a hour or so. At the end of the rope I sold the unit.
Now, i got myself an HTC Tytn. Worked for a weeks and then I got the same problem. Help please, anyone?
I guess try the card thing again... ?
Go to the wiki and theres a table with serial numbers and those devices that have experienced the SA issue. see if yours is one of them, if so try to send it in for a replacement.
alingment
hi just wondering as i am newbie what do you meant by refering to wiki. as i got the same problem with my O2 Trion.
Old problem here
This is old and very polemic subject.
Some people said it´s only a hardware problem, others say software.
My case, I used to upgrade my Tytn to the last ROM available , after 2-3 weeks SA comes again...
I tiered of HTC support at all. Let´s wait for the iPhone...

Joke right?!
Even if HTC employed people to come round my house to perform daily acts of physical abuse and force me into un-natural acts with farm animals, I still wouldn't swop for an iphone. In fact the more I think about it those un-natural acts become rather appealing when I think about the "all mouth and no trousers" iphone.

Seems like it is now out ... :
http://www.expansys.fr/p.aspx?i=154231
They are clear ... they are available and already in stock !
I don't want to wait .. but it's not that cheap there ... 1344€ instead of the 1199€ on other site ... still waiting !
In germany also:
http://www.expansys.de/p.aspx?i=154234
hehe, we will see
Germany, delayed
I don´t believe this:
fällig ab Montag 3.März
http://www.expansys.de/p.aspx?i=154234
I see some shift on e-bay.
Hmm, I don't speak German or French (can't read them either) but both Expansys links had what looked like some clarification making me think Expansys changed their website since you posted the links:
Verfügbarkeit: fällig ab Montag 3.März
Disponibilité: Arrivage prévu Lundi 3 Mars
Could that mean something along the lines of Arriving Monday, March 3...?
This is getting even more ridiculous than it has been.
Expansys.nl says feb 29th...
i think there have been some HTC Shift arrived.. but they are all sold .. and now they are waiting for the next shifts to come ...
I'm not sure about it... but I don't see any other possibility
Any word on whether these have voice capabilities?
well some fresh news....
I have been to a store (in Belgium) and ask them if the shift was arrived .. and guess what ? The answer was not the same as usual .. here what he have said : "there are 3 orders and 1 for a client, 2 for the stock" ... WELL WELL WELL.... and for when ? ... "during january but we have no precise date" .... mmh.... I could order one but it's a little too early.
the offical distributor of htc germany tells me, in the begining of march. so I think the forecast of expansys (what is not the offical distri) is right... Some countries in Europe (not germany) starts a few days before with selling the shift.
so we waiting. I hope we can enable phone capatibilities and GPS features.

Pre-Prod model of shift is very unstable and not well built. Booting takes ages...
Hope they will fix that!
booting takes 2-3 minutes I have read on a nice review... but the issue is resuming .. resuming takes about 5 minutes or even more ... I'm not completely sure about the exact time of both .. but if I remember well it was something like that.
The review was written by Hugo Ortega from GottaBeMobile.com and he has said something like "booting time is good but resuming time is horrible".
Some testers have had issue with the SnapVue .. but everything was a year ago .. so be sure that HTC has fixed everything, the Shift @ CES2008 was excessively well working .. so you don't need to worry too much
HTC Shift on eBay
Hi, I had bid on a HTC Shift on eBay but it has only 20G HDD instead of 40G/60G. Is it possible since all website said it has 40G or 60G HDD. Did they change the spec? OR the guy on eBay is scamming people.

after going through a month of struggle and annoyance (the 1th month i own my hd2) finally i can use my device the way it should.
I had a lot of different problems like rebooting while is was listening to music and trying to update the weather at the same time. Hence i couldn't watch any streaming video with a reboot as a result. I thought hey let's flash a custom rom but that made the problems worse. I couldn't even finish the setup wizard .
They may seemed to be a software problem but in the end it was my mainboard. I had to live 2 months without the device before the mainboard was being replaced. But now i have 0,0 problems with energy rom
It's maybe a little sad that i can see the potential after 3 months of buying, but better be late then never
So if any of you got strange ''software'' problems i could be very likely that the mainboard is the real problem..
All i have to say to my HD2 is... Live long and prosper xD
Good to hear, that you'r phone working good now. Enjoy
where to buy a hd2 tmous mainboard ?
i bought my HD2 on ebay and after 4-5 months its freezing and rebooting .
Why don't you send it to your suppliers customer support to get a new one?!
would be great but i bought my phone on ebay and i live in Albania/Europe , so i dont have a warranty and im not a customer of Tmobile. any other solution
First of all I,d try to update firmware, radio.... What version do u have right now? are you using Android??...tell us more
Is it just me, or does the title of this thread seem to be sandwiched between the nastier bits of male anatomy?
You shouldn't love your new HD2 that much
I know it's wrong, but really, I just couldn't resist
So sorry...
how much u got ur new mainboard?
cause i got da same prop.

Before tripping Knox why don't you flash stock firmware and take the phone back to Samsung to get it replaced ? You do know Samsung smartphones ship with 24month warranty ? i know you said hardware is fine but it sounds like it is a hardware problem to me.. As you have tried different kernels nothing works it's hardware not software... i could be wrong but try Samsung service center...
you could be write

well you might be right as im thinkin of it different kernels and still no luck so its a highly a hardware but since all kernels did not work as they supposed to i thought it might be rom related issue !! im still backing up my data and gonna try the new X-note V20 with their kernel " wish me luck "
well thats a good idea about taking the device to samsung the only problem is samsung company where i live in they suck and i do mean it ...
for example when i called to ask for their nearest location they said they dont support samsung smart phone ( huh !! but they are samsung device's ) they replied with there is another company thats handling the smart phones ... in my country ( Kuwait ) the repair shop is better than the companies and the repair shop dont know anything you dont ,,, most of them learned from the internet ... ( there are alot good repair shop but their too expensive ) im not gonna pay 75% of the device price just to fix the camera ... i would buy a new device !!
so a warranty means nothing i know it sucks but thats the true looooooolz
last reason for not doin that is
i wanna do fix anything i own myself i dont wanna depend on any repair shop or anything ....
anywayz im greatly thankful for your reply that made me think its hardware issue ... i might search for front camera part now if their cheap in amazon im gonna buy one and lets hope i dont blow up the device looooolz
Dude I know the centers suck they do the same thing here in the UK, Samsung don't handle the repair themselves third party deal with it. i had a issue with a galaxy note they replaced it with a new one within 7 days so it's not a long wait try here http://www.samsung.com/ae/support/servicelocation
And if you feel like replacing the front camera yourself ebay or Amazon are the best for parts by the way have you ever dropped your galaxy note 3 ??

That's a bit stupid you have to pay for warranty what kind of warranty is that ? Here in the UK we pay nothing not one penny warranty means manufacture pays for everything not end user.. Anyway can you paste the logcat to pastebin so i can take a look ? i'm no pro but there are some android pros on here they might be able to help?

Dude i doubt it very much you would able to install a Front facing Note 4 camera on a Note 3 for starters the connectors wouldn't most likely fit, And the camera might not be able to sit correctly in side the phone you can try but i can guarantee you will be wasting money time and money...
