Shift with voice on eBay

The more I thought about missing my old one, the more I yearned to buy another .. didn't take very long, but I just purchased it with BUY IT NOW on eBay. I am positive their ad is mis-leading .. It says it has voice - and - even voice dialing. That's impossible, right ?? Not that it matters, I am just curious. Do they know something I don't know ?

Looks like just another numpty seller.
When it arrives, demand a partial refund because it can't make phone calls.
That'll learn 'em!

I wonder where he/she got that WRONG information?? Looks like they sell lots of computer 'stuff.' I don't care really. I will be happy to get one again. I really missed mine. My a/c went out at the beginning of summer and had to sell mine. Been watering my money tree and it was ready to be picked this weekend !!! Yippee !! Of course, being the 'rotten kid at christmas' that I am. I paid extra for overnight shipping ..

Pantaloonie is right. Demand partial amount back or tell them that you would leave a negative feedback. EBay changed the policy on feedbacks. Now the buyers would not receive negative feedback at any cost.

Has anybody tried voicecall with bluetooth device?
Read an article that said it was possiblehttp://www.elitezoom.com/htc-shift-preview.html

Actually, they said they didn't know in rather poor english.
To answer your question though, no it isn't possible to make a voice call from WM at present. Also, since Bluetooth also isn't available to WM, you can't connect a Bluetooth headset to it in WM either.

Dave

OK foxmeister!
I don´t have A shift yet,so I am a noob on this device.
Hopfully i will have one nex week.

New OEM ruberised back for Fuze/touch pro for sale

Well I finally received mine and it turns out that I don't like it. Nothing wrong with it just spoiled by my IS cover. I will sell mine ( just arrived today) for what I have into it so the first $29 + shipping gets it. Payment is through paypal but I will only ship to a paypal CONFIRMED adress. PM if interested.

Maybe a picture to help understanding what we are looking at here?

Here, these are not mine but you get the point.

where did you get the new covers from?

thats really cool. where did you get it?? i dont always wanna use the nice looking back. ie when im at school or work...

RebelShadow probably got it from Expansys like the rest of us. I also contemplate selling mine as I already have the Seidio case + the OEM 1800 battery that came with a different back. (not meaning to hJ the thread).

mine took nearly 2 months to get to me from Expansys so if you are looking to pick one of these up im sure this will be much much faster.

I'm am selling just the one cover and not many. I ordered it from Expansys almost 2 months ago and just received it but as I said I like the feel of my IS cover better. If someone wants the cover but does not want to wait the couple of months to receive it from Expansys here's your chance.

Thanks your look y'all but the cover is sold!

Rebel,
Hope you don't mind me tagging on your thread now yours is sold, I don't want to start another thread.
I am selling mine (new) if someone is interested, please PM me. I bought this from Expansys around the time I bought the OEM 1800 cell + Seidio case, so I really don't have a need to use this rubberized back between alternating with the Seidio and extended cell that comes with its own back.

Magnetic stylus + ballpoint combo

Hmm.. looks like the thread about stylus/ballpoint that I posted a couple of days ago got deleted/rollbacked along with the server shuffle, so I'll post it again - basically I'm looking for a magnetic stylus that has ballpoint/pen. Someone posted a link earlier but there was some mix up as to whether its a ballpoint/stylus or simply a regular one.
I looked around the net and found some made by Styra or Songtak, but not whether those are magnetic. If they are not, wouldn't they fall off the phone? Any help on this is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Don't know if these have megnets or not: http://www.seidioonline.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=SY3IN1HTCH2
Update:
I emailed tham and this is the response:
Thank you for your inquiry at Seidioonline. We are more than happy to assist you with your concern. Yes, those stylus contain a magnet like the oem model.

hey man, Thanks for the offer. I'll take it if you're getting them from eBay. the ideal price would be $3/each including shipping (that's the price I got for the stylus of my tilt)
But you have to be careful, the stylus of a Fuze is slightly different from a Touch Pro

I go one from ebay, the listing said 3X so I assumed there would be three of the stylus/pen units but there was only one! For $10 it is one expensive stylus!

for $10 it's not worthy
maybe is 1 package of 3 stylus
that's what I got for the Tilt... but it's better if you check with the seller.

Buy 3 get 1 ... Is it a magnetic one by the way? I've been asking around, and discovered that most of them aren't. Wouldn't it fall off easily without the magnets?

that little son of a... i fell for the same thing too! i now noticed the listing says "quantity: 1".
have you contacted the seller about it?
i haven't got the chance, because i used my girlfriend's ebay account to order (she's from USA), and i dont have her password. =(

I complained after the package arrived and they sent me 2 more! AAA+++ for this seller, don't see that level of service on ebay much these days

no way! i'll try that right now. that IS good service. did you write anything special?

Here is what I wrote:
"Hello,
I received my stylus but there was only one in the package when the title reads "3X" which I interpreted as "three times" or "Three included"
I'm dissapointed, please advise"
They sent me a tracking number the next day along with a friendly email to let me know they were taking care of it!

I bought them and they are not magnetic and they fall right out of the Fuze.

Thanks, good to know

anyone know where to get the stylus that comes with the Touch Pro? I lost mine none of them I have found seem to look like the OEM. I'm sure they work but I would like the OEM to replace it with.

Warranty Charger Replacement

Hi guys,
Can anyone tell me how on Eart I go about getting the charger replaced under warranty? I've registered my TF on Asus' site but I'm finding it difficult to raise a request for this. Basically, the plug on the end of the charger keeps coming loose and my TF only seems to charge intermittently as a result of this. The charger is a little bizarre in my opinion. Could have been built a little better and they could have at least given us more slack with the cable! It is painfully short! Thanks!

Vipergrm,
I called the customer service number here in the US (888-678-3688) and waded thru the many menus until I got to the TF people and told them mine had just quit working. They gave me an RA number to return the bad unit which they plan to replace. I had purchased a spare just in case and now i am using that one as my main charger.[they call that playing the odds] I plan on building a good one using a 12volt 2amp switching power supply. There is a thread on how to do that.
Hope that helps.

Thanks a lot for your reply. So they actually want the charger back before they replace it? That's a total pain. Is there no third party ones available anywhere? I can pay about £3 for an iPod/iPad charger but yet the Transforner is £25 for some reason. Probably the same in US dollars. Oh well. I'll try find a second one here in the UK. I suppose a spare is always handy. Thank you!

Mine died a couple of months back ..I called ...got a RMA ...sent it off and I got a brand new one sent to me. I had already bought a spare so no problem.
I believe (but don't quote me) a IPod/Ipad charger operates at 5 volts...a TF at 15 volts.....look up 15 volt chargers that put out 1200mA or more like on ebay...I'm sure your find they aren't the cheapest thing going.
For an alternative check out this thread....I have a simular one I made for a spare and keep the other extra TF one I bought in my travel case

Spare Battery

anyone knows one that is at least nearly as good as the original?
ebay is filled with fakes trying to look good and just plain fakes.
i bought one which i knew it wasn't genuine but i thought "what the heck, it's probably good for a few hours" and it isn't. i have to underclock the cpu so the phone wouldn't reboot and in lasts 6 hours if i'm lucky.

Just get the original. Its not that expensive. In india it is 1000 bucks. Do the math..

Bought two on DealExtreme... obviously fake and been using one without any issues.. honestly can't tell if it's fake or original judging only by the endurance.

I would like to share my experience of battery purchase. I bought a battery from ebay, this one:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/19066970991...X:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649#ht_1357wt_1141
I recieved the package in just over a week, but it was a battery for some ZTE device!!! I contacted the seller and they immediately sent me another one. Under one week later I had my new battery(seems like an original battery).
On first charge it seems to hold a lot better then my 15 months old battery I had. Charging now takes 1.5 hours like it used to, the old battery was 0-100% charged in 30-40 minutes, with the original charger.
So for 4.99$ or in my case under 4€ including shipment I can go more then a day of normal use, surfing, mail, calling, reading xda..
Or easily 2 days of light use.
I think it was well spent money, I recommend!
Edit: I guess I should mention that battery tested with ezet CM7.

Also bought one from DealExtreme, it works ( no problem there ) but mine doesn't last as long as the original one ( tested on the official 2.3 ), but great for spare if you don't have a charger around .

Where do you get the original one? In bangalore? any idea

In Bangalore, Huawei has a service center near KR Puram. They actually couriered me one since Im too lazy to move around too much
Any huawei service center should be able to give you one if you turn up. Give them a call first.

Is there anyone here who can help me buy a new battery in India?
