April Fools.

They ACTUALLY did the same for me just yesterday! Very good customer service for them on that part, other then the fact they had just charged me $196 for an unlocked bl

I got my headphones replaced for free but they charged 7$ for shipping.

ouch ..thats a bit steep

Think about that question.

I actually got my battery door replaced for free without shipping fees too!

not really. idk why this is some sort of unbelievable thing to do... i wouldnt lie

Considering it's the third of April now, I don't think it's an April Fools joke. Where did you contact HTC? I might want to call them because of this problem I'm having, but I live in Spain and I'm not sure if I could apply for this.

Apparently, you would lie! Companies wont give people free stuff if they find out people are just abusing the system for their own personal gain.

Well played sir! Haha. I wouldn't lie to YOU guys but to a major corporation? Yea.. what do they have to lose... I've already given them almost $2000 of my hard earned cash for just cell phones so they should be a little lenient
And I called them here.. 1-888-216-4736 and told them I woke up on the weekend and said my battery cover and neoprene case was gone. They happily obliged with my request. Try it... what do you have to lose

I am waiting for my xperia too. I ordered it one week ago, and hopefully it will be here tomorrow. If not I expect it by the end of the week. If it doesn't arrive by the end of the week I will go crazy.

Good to hear more people will get this great phone, maybe we get more useful panels by xda users =)
In the same terrible situation as folks without a confirmed date. sony in my country (Singapore) just did a pre-order for SEX1. But I am waiting for operators to pick it up and offer it with contract so that it will cost lesser. Anyway, i am not keen on what the pre-order is giving.

I finally got my HAD TO HAVE IT NOW Xperia - Probably going to sell it .. Haven't even put it in my purse or taken it out of the house. My eyes are older than I am and with the super great resolution everything is too small for me to read .. gotta whip out my magnifying glasses to use it ..
JEEZ ...
Where did you guys order yours from and how much did you pay for it? (include shipping and tax) I'm looking to get one but I dont know where is a reliable place to buy it. Anyone have experience with Clove?

I think he means he just doesn't remember anything that could have caused this damage. other people have posted that their screen broke in their bag/pocket seemingly for no reason. I was concerned about this so I googled it and it turns out it happens to other phones too, but rarely. apparently pressure on the screen can do it. unfortunately warranties don't cover it.
or maybe he really was wasted and doesn't remember falling down those stars....

I'm pretty sure parts will become available soon, in the mean time you could buy a G1 from ebay to use short term and then sell it on when you find a screen.

I might be wrong..
but maybe he/she dropped it a few times which would have agitated the screen. Then maybe with the heat that builds up when charging, might have cracked the screen. Just a wierd theory. Let us know how it goes with htc.

I've been on this forum for about 3 weeks to a month now and i've seen your problem at least 2 other times now. Honesty pays off in this situation. They will ask for your IMEI number (i believe thats whats its called) and they will know that your not the originaly buyer of the phone.

If you're not the original purchaser then you do not have a warranty.

They will fix it but it will cost money. I highly doubt they will do it for free because your not the original buyer. You won't know until you call and remember to be honest.
There are many reports of this happening, So don't feel too bad. However I've read that the warranty only applies to the original owner, and view may ask for proof of purchase. Sorry dude.

it's not that short fixed.
maybe it's a good idea to sell the nexus before it happens to YOU... HTC seem to have some dodgy manufacturing with all these reoccuring problems of the screen.

I'll tell them that all 3 had really bad like leakage and the screens were coming up, mine sounded like a fking kazoo in the speaker whenever I was talking to somebody and the other one just restarted randomly, and the 3rd one just had like leakage.
Other than that, sprint needs to credit my AMEX card back $956...they've had the phones back for almost a week now!

Of course not
I get insurance with my bank and they will not insure my phone unless i have proof of purchase with an IMEI number on it.
And I wouldn't let fly insinuations like that too freely, think and calculate before writing such comments
