I was in the middle of tweeting, when a pop up notification ask me to take part in a survey, so i said yes. The next message said a system update may be available and they wanted me to plug my phone to a PC. I'm about to do it but wanted to know if anybody else got this message aswell?
That's not an update, it's just sending information to Microsoft.

a couple of other HD2 owners reported updates too. Goto your settings after the update and let us know the software versions listed, to see what it updates. Thanks
Unless your handset has a completely different SOFTWARE VERSION and/or ROM VERSION afterwards... you didn't receive any sort of "update".
T-Mobile USA would publicly address a system update for the HTC HD2.
Trust me, I work for them... I would definitely know, considering my manager is the VP of Human Resources and Communications.
I bet you're merely submitting information to Microsoft, nothing more.

Well, our store in the Dallas/Ft. Worth area had 3 as of last night, but of course we sold all of 'em before we could get the FedEx guy outta' the store.
Our store also carries the most volume and moves the most in the state... so we typically come across more of the HTC HD2 handsets, but sell 'em the quickest.
All I can suggest is... keep trying. Persistence will eventually pay off.

Now I cant get it back, I've tried everything, its GONE. I went to a local Tmo store and show the lady, she told me "if thats an update, it'll be there, just go back to settings, and than updates" and I did, it was there still but that was before my phone died and I could update.
this has happen to me in several diferent devices.no updates were available to any of them .
I just got a call from a guy named Josh at HTC Quality Care Department. He called me back regarding there customer satification survey I did on there site a few days ago, I had left a comment letting them know the many of issues I was going through. He notice I had a couple of open tickets with HTC CSR Lindsay, so she passed me up to the Senior HTC Quality Care Dept. Josh said I will be getting a call on Monday regarding these issues because HTC is trying to figure out why the phone is having troubles and nobody has seem to help them out... except me he says. I laugh and said sure, Im willing to do whatever it takes to help you guys . He thank me and said look for a call from a senior advisor on Monday.
your gonna get a email or a call 3 weeks after. when i damage my touch pro 2 door i called them trying to buy a new one since the device was brand new on the market they said they will call me when they have the door for sale actually ebay beat them by 1.5 months
I just got one ofthese surveys or updates.....idk. I already had my HD2 plugged in a PC charging.
So I went to best buy a few hours ago to get a screen protector for my newly replace Evo. Sadly there was not much of a selection so I went with the Zagg invisible shield one. As I as about to go to the front to pay the mobile person said that he could install it for me if I wanted for $7. I said ok why not I hate installing screen protectors anyway. So he got it on and it was crooked so I told him that it's no good. He tried again and used more solution spray. I got a little worried about the amount he was using and told him maybe that's a little too much spray. He said don't worry it will be ok. Well flash forward to now, I just turned on my Evo and guess what? Solution leaked under the screen!!! I'm about to flip!
Oh no ****ed that guy talk **** to him that you want a brand new evo and to the manager

Yea, I just wish tomorrow would come already so I can head down there. I am angry beyond belief. This phone is 2 days old rooted and all my apps, now I have to flash it back to stock and head down there at the crack of dawn to have them most likely give me a hard time about this.

You are about to have a hard time with them... they are complete dumb asses at bb.. they are gonna try to play lost with you, just ask for the manager as soon as you walk in. He/ she will play dumb too, then ask for the district manager, then they will get you a little white box out the cabinet, say hello to your new evo!
From past experience with same issue!

LOL, why did you walk out of the store without checking first. Huge mistake on your part. If there was an error, it should have been fixed right then and there no problems.
I dont know if there is any garentee to protect you. But good luck, hope the fix it or at least get a refund.
This could get interesting make a huge scene then walk with a new evo

Cheesy is CHEESY!
Honestly, sometimes it takes a push ... a verbal push, if you will. You know how many people probably have other people put screen protectors on - for whatever reason - and they just suck? And they just walk out with em?
Just being real.
There are people that won't stand for horse **** ... and there are others that will. It's not about "appearing" tough here or there ... it's like getting anything applied / installed and it not being right but "dealing with it." Shouldn't even have to ask. ****ing say something. LOL
Internet tough guy aside ... and you clearly jumped the gun.
Thanks though, I've seen you post before.\
edit: on that note; do you do anything but post bull**** and / or ask questions?
Honest question.
Because, honestly, I see nothing but - and in this case, nothing but a half decades old picture and bull****-run-of-the-mill-every-other-god-damn-forum-thread-post picture. And dude, you really did use that prematurely ... the bandwagon you're jumping on - this "internet tough guy" **** that has been going on for a while - AROUND HERE AT LEAST, is starting to get out of hand. In the way that people are starting to "diagnose" too much as such. It's a Forum. You clearly don't show up looking to impress the English Majors. Most folks are not worried about spelling errors and "complete sentences." Most, read; the majority - and even the people you admire and adore - couldn't care less about that ****.
So you post your cute pictures.
I hope you like mine.
Please, in the future, if you are going to TRY and be demonstrative ... don't post bull**** before the fact. Or at least as often as you do ... because, well, just ..... no.
If you couldn't install one of those by yourself kinda your fault bro... nit a hard process. I had one for months. It got mucked up underneath took it off been without it. No scratches. I'm on a dinc but same idea. It isn't needed

True.
But, to be fair ... those "liquid" applicators can throw a first timer for a loop ... or whatever.
It can be daunting because you don't know how much / little to use. And I've seen people go overkill with that ish.
That being said ... yes, do it yourself. That's the best way. I mean, these assholes' as BB know little more - if anything - than you do. At least when it comes to their "mobile department."
With that being said about that being said ... should you be so worried, I've heard of others having them do it and when / if they **** up then they are obligated to grab a new one and begin again. If I saw dude doing the same one over and over I'd say something ... can never be embarrassed to question someone who should know what they're doing.
It was like a kid, asking someone to cut out a cut in their griptape ... once I started to work a shop ... **** that, I nailed it or if dude asked for something stupid I said do it themselves. Always worked. I mean, your average consumer can only be so competent.
Make sure the solution isn't just under the protector and will evaporate in a day or so, I've heard that in the past referring to these type of accessories.
i would try using ghost armor. its the best screen protector out there. i had my whole evo done in ghost armor. they use the same material on helicoptor blades to keep it from chipping from flying debre. and you get a lifetime replacement as long as you have your phone. google it for a store near you
Same thing
Happened to me, left a visible shadow like mark on my screen for over a month, out did eventually go away completely,
I also left fingerprints on it so I went to the mall and a zagg booth replaced and installed for only 5 bucks
Zagg makes a good product for protection, it does however seem to yellow after time, of course that could be the oil in. my hands doing that.
Also the feel of it isn't as smooth, it kinda interferes if your a swyper like me.
In closing I will say my phone doesn't have evan a blemish on it, looks as good as it does second week of launch.
Swyped from a galaxy far far away......
I got pickpocketed while walking around downtown Minneapolis and I don't have any insurance or the money to buy a new one but I really want my Vibrant.
Sorry but you're SOL

Not sure but I think Lookout can be added to a missing device. Get the premium version and track it. I know the tracking works, its how I know my kids are ditching school. If they pulled the battery though your screwed. Go to they're web site,it might help.

How will detecting the theft sooner help? Chances are you still won't catch it in progress. Some of those guys are really good at it.
Lookout has a service where you can install the location software remotely, provided it is still on, in service and hasn't been wiped! Hopefully it's lost and not stolen and you get it back

Considering that this guy is enough of a lowlife to steal someone's phone, I would expect that he would post it on Craigslist immediately, especially as he lacks the charger to even charge the device (and probably would not recognize which phone or charger it is).
Just try to look on Craigslist and look at Vibrants. Be suspicious of any without a charger or box and ask him for the IMEI (on the box if you have it). If it is a match then the best thing to do is call the police and have them retrieve the device. Or you could just meet him with a baseball bat.

yep. After stealing my stolen phone, made a time machine with 80 vibrants mashed into 1 machine. Then i went back in time, when the guy who stole my phone was about to steal it, i grabbed him by the neck and dropped him on the floor. Later i called the police, and they didn't believe me that he was going to steal my phone, so i went to jail for a week. Then after getting out of jail, i knew my life's mission was to catch this guy and frame him for stealing my phone. I later googl'd his name, which i'd glanced at while the cops told me to put my hands up... So after googling his name i found where he lived.
I soon stalked him for 2 years, so i knew where he lived what he did, when he did anything. Unfortunately, the day i planned to frame him, He moved. So i followed him to Russia. After following him to Russia, I stalked him for 2 years, and knew for a fact he wouldn't move this time.
So i planned my attack
- AND THEN I WOKE UP.

assuming the phone is on and hasnt been wiped or otherwise logged out of gmail that' a great idea. remember to get the baseball bat for when you find the thief or the low life he sold it to for crack money.
Hey guys. Thanks for the funny and helpful feedback. I saw the guy who stole my phone on the city bus (I knew it was him because he used to go to my high school until he got kicked out and someone as ignorant and clueless as him wouldn't be running MIUI and have a ffc installed on their phone) so I tried to get it back but got jumped by him and his friends (he's a GD). I pressed charges on him and they found those guys after they looked at the tapes from the bus and recognized them from times they've arrested them before. they're in jail for aggravated robbery (They took 30$ from me while jumping me). but I couldn't get my phone back due to lack of evidence that it was mine. (Got a replacement Vibrant with a different number on the box). It's a cruel world and all I ever do is try my hardest to spread love and respect to everyone I meet but it's people like them that make me wanna **** some **** up around here.

I was told it would cost me atleast 180 euro.
This equals 236 USD or 150 GBP.
Wil try the rice thing too, but doubt it will help, as the phone is a slider..

Not to give anyones' hopes up,but maybe you don't need 180 for it? It's common in my country that phone shops tell you lies and just take money/parts and get huge profit... Now this is just a wild guess,but if only half of the screen (50%) is damaged that maybe the wires are damaged? I mean if water got into the touchscreen part it should completely break the screen and I think this is why:
If there is water/damage in any part of the screen, then it should cause the screen to think there are 1000 of inputs being performed,and since our screens wont register more than 6-8 inputs at one time it wont allow any input on the top half? Maybe the input is not being properly transfered to the other part of the phone?
But then again...

Hmm really.. Could consider that too if enough people would donate some money! Will see
Good luck with that
While the intent to be helpful is there, actions speak louder than words and these forums are pretty silent.
My advice to you would be to seek means to repair your play on your own.
I believe at least 2 plays were donated out so far, 1 was either sold or stolen and the other did more for development of the play when he didnt have one.
Mad props to both gents though, no disrepect, just keeping it real.

If the repairs cost actually 150 quid, and a new phone sets you back the same, you're much better off telling people to donate for a new phone.
I can donate 20$ if you can organize more to contribute.
Yeah although I started this thread I can't aftually donate . Barely enough money to Live.

If you're unemployed and taking care of two kids (alone even?) then why on earth would you spend your last money on a mobile phone...? I'm just asking...
Anyway that looks like you've driven over it with a car or something.
If you don't have insurance then I guess your only bet is to buy a new screen with digitizer, which unfortunatelly costs around 200€, as you've already said.
E: Or buy a cheap Samsung / Nokia basic phone and start looking for work

Sorry mate...but seriously, please rethink your priorities.
Woah. Tough luck there. But if you don't have the money to fix the Galaxy Note, you shouldn't have considered buying it in the first place.
What's the point having a cool Android device if you can't support your family properly! Seriously, I have heard people in Japan sold kidneys to get the iPad. I hope you are not as dumb as that.
first of all,... i can take care of my children financially and in other kinds too ,.. and i was taking it with an contract it was 0 euro so its not that much money ,.. and android devices are my only hobby so everyone has his hobby ,.. and whatever wanted to look if someone has a hardware broke device to sell it to me less then 200 euro but it looks like noone understand what i mean and write stupid things about my family ,.. whatever !
and no i would never sell any organs or something crazy for any kind of stupid technical things !
and belive me i support my kids in any kind !

Some guys have hard bricked their Notes with those leaked ICS builds so you might want to start asking them if they're willing to sell their phones....

if your looking to get hold of a bricked note (sounds like a good way to go about it) you might want to change your thread title so those with a brick note would be more likely to view the thread and help you

Have you contacted Samsung? I wrote off a display on my HP48GX in my engineering undergrad (~$500 in the late '90s), totally my fault, called HP and explained what happened they sent me a new one. Loved HP until all this apotaker crap.
Brings me to my next question - What in the world happened to it? I'm finding my Note really easy to drop for some reason, and mangled the display on my XT720 last week by dropping it - but Gwaaa! How in the world?!
IT Fell out of my pocket and a car ran into IT! STUPIDITY
Edit : called Samsung and they want 225 euro with installing the Display but they say they are fobidden to sell Parts which cannot applied from eveybody! ,...
So No free Display Form Samsung
And back in the 90 i got a free New unlocked handy from a company only with telling them its broken (Mine was but there where some people abusing that!)
You can replace the display and sell the phone.
After that you can buy something more affordable.
The poor guy has a problem with his phone and he explained it clearly and yet some members start giving him lessons about life and how to spend his money. We don't know the real situation and yes he too has the right to have galaxy note. He is facing now some financial problems.
To make the long story short. Either help the guy or don't write ridiculous comments.
That's my 2 cents

thanks !!! +1 for that post !!!
I'm not going to tell you how to live your life, i think that you're not the only one that spend some money on this phone, i know i did !!!
For solving your problem maybe i can give you a hint: if you know (or someone knows) people in the repair bussiness of mobile phones and if you get lucky you just might get a display.... Ther must be already some notes that are beyond repair and with a little help from "the inside".......... You can always tell the person who gets it that they may do the repair (and earn some money).
Otherwise pray that there is a good samaritan that will send you a display / whole phone for you to use.
Wish you the best of luck in solving this.

yeah was my my intend too but i went to my handy repair friend and he knows others and he told me its almost impossible to get a display for it becouse here they are very rare and if someone has one they sell it for like 180 euro and if he knows one he will tell me but it doesnt feel right what he was telling me , so idk !!!
im still hoping !!!
thanks for ur help guys
I mean who gives a damn what tgis guy does its his kids abd if they are happy we shutup !
Lets not start saying the good and the bad iam sure we can all calculate our situations fairly, good luck with it you should watch these things better as I think a phone is one of the most needed and important things in our lives.
Anyway best would be to buy a bricked phone as many mentioned or if any would just give you just his screen even for less since you don't need all parts as I understand.
There are posts on how to disassemble the phone you could even replace it your self if you have the right tools, btw make sure tge buttons work home button most important.
Good luck mate hope the best. Cheers

I'm not sure if you mentioned it, but do you know that it's just the display? I mean, worst case scenario would be to put a new screen in and then find out that the main board is beyond repair too.
I have a screen/lcd combo sitting around my house. Never got around to selling it. Ended up converting my note into a white version. Maybe we can work something out. Contact me.
2 things about the lcd
1. It was a DIY job. I broke mine, replaced it and used it for about a month prior to converting to white.
2. Back button is iffy. It works just not consistently. Probably could take it apart and reapply the glue. I used button savoir(free market app) and it never bothered me.
I cant give it away for free, but we can work something out.
PM me if your interested.
