[Q] HTC Repair Romania - HD2 General

Hi guys,
I hope some Romanians can verify this?
My phone has the famous digitizer issue (screen not responding when coming out of standby), where I called HTC Romania.
They told me to contact their repair center in Bucharest. (http://www.cirma.ro/)
That repair center states I have to pay 1000 LEI (250 EUR) for this repair, while the phone still is in warranty. Aren't there such things as 'in warranty repairs' here in Romania?
As I am not Romanian, I would like some info in regards to this. Otherwise I have to ship it to the UK or to Holland (where I'm from) to have it repaired.
Please, some feedback would be appreciated.
Multumesc foarte mult!

Hy, here , in Romania, the thing are a little bit different. You could repair your phone in warranty only if you bought it from here.The procedure is also very complicated, we must go with the deffective device on our provider, they send the phone to Cirma, after repair Cirma send it back to the provider and only after that we can enjoy again about our beautifull device. Also they ask for entire package, not only the device, I don`t know why ! And the whole procedure takes about 3-4 weeks . So , I think you can send it to your country for repair, the time will be almost the same. I called also Cirma service an they told to me that replacing the digitizer costs 1000 LEI.

I had a screen problem too on my Hd2 (a white spot) and I've been to Collection Point (on Stefan Cel Mare), they made and a diagnose of the problem and then they changed the screen for free (on warranty). In my case I bought the device from Romania.
My advice is to go to a Collection Point with your Invoice and warranty certificate in order to clarify if your papers are eligible here in Ro.

Thanks guys,
I think i'll just ship it to Holland anyway.
Just came of the phone with Cirma, and they won't repair my HTC device, as I didn't buy it here in Romania. (Which, legally is very wrong, as HTC has a European Warranty certificate and Cirma is supposed to be a valid repair partner).
Next to that, there is no such thing as a warranty 'certificate' when you get a phone in Holland. You have your proof of purchase, with warranty booklets by HTC. I've been everywhere in the world, but this is the only country still sticking to certificates and stamps..
Oh well, I thank you for your replies, they are appreciated!

Sorry about that, but think a little: we are living here from the beginning of our life . It is worst than anything

No worries mate, I am not blaming you
But i have some positive news. I went into a repair point from Cordon Electronics (Auchan/Titan) and explained them everything.
Last Friday I gave my phone with a proof of purchase to them, explaining that in Holland (where i bought the phone) does not have 'warranty certificates' and I showed them the HTC warranty booklet. They took my unit in (Friday night at 20.00) and just now i received an SMS, that the unit can be collected from the same point, repaired and all.
New mainboard, buttons, digitizer, LCD panel All in warranty. I guess when things can be explained properly and the person understands the situation, not much can go wrong
Can't wait to get my beloved HD2 back after work

Update
Went to the Service Point last night, only to find out they did replace the mainboard, and LCD, unfortunately, it did not fix the problem.
So again, it's in repair

Keep us informed

Phone not working/warranty not honoured/Advice?

Hey all the story is this:
I had been using the JASJAR for a couple of months now and suddenly the phone (and I mean only the phone) has stopped working....What happens is that with my Vodafone SIM card I get signal but I cannot make or receive calls....When they call me they get voicemail, when I try to call the phone tries to make a call but after 30 seconds I get ' Call ended'.
I have even upgarded the device to the ROM given by imate and still the same thing happens....The green light flashes but it looks to people calling me that the phone is off.
I contacted Expansys where the phone was bought from and they advised to contact SBE which is imate's service center. I did and they kindly offered to have the phone picked up by courrier and have a look at it. They did and after a week or so they came back with a quote for 100+ pounds for replacing the phones main board! They said that warranty will not cover it because ' it is out of warranty according to the manufacturing date'.
I of course freaked out and spoke to imate on-line support and they advised me that the excuse will not stand and that all phones are covered by their date of purchase and that I should write an email to imate support explaining the situation. I did and the reply outraged me even more....
They said that the spoke to the service center and that they advised them that "it has been verified that the coaxial cable on the device is faulty and this is considered as a physical damage." The phone had NO damage when it left me and it has never suffered any....
:twisted:
Has this happened to anyone before? What should I do next? They provide lame excuses and they do not honour their warranty....Are they just trying to make more money out of me? Any advise will be appreciated and if anyone has taken a case like this to a cunsumers right association I will be glad to hear from them....I am not willing to give this up...
Thank you in advance,
Argy
PS I have all email and on-line chat on file for anyone that does not believe it....
i had a simaler problem with my a1000 which i got from 3uk
i ended up paying off my contract about the 6month mark and a few month later the phone stopped charging,
i assumed motorola would fix it being the manufacture but they said its outsourced to 3 and they handle all the repairs.
i rang 3uk and they asked me for my account number i advised them that i was no longer a coustomer as i payed off my contract but the phone was still under the 12 manufactures warantie.
they said they wouldnt even look at it as i was no longer a 3uk coustomer and that i would have to speak to motorola, motorola said exactly the oposate and that as it was a 3uk phone it was up to them to fix it.
after numerous calls and letters both from myself and consumer rights nothing was done and eventualy the 12 month past ......
i have it as a paper weight now lol
not relervant to your story but it might help somone else
good look ... dont let them screw you over

If you bought the phone from Expansys then (in theory) your contract is with them, not with SBE or I-Mate or anybody else.
Expansys should honour their contract with you and provide warranty cover, not refer you to someone else.
I'm no expert in consumer contract law (so I could be wrong) but I believe this to be the case. If it was a mail-order purchase then your rights should be even stronger, I think.
Your best bet might be to contact a Citizens Advice Bureau and find out what their opinion is. I'd have thought they'd examine the small print of your contract with Expansys and then tell you whether you have a valid warranty claim against them or not.
Good luck.
if you paid originally for it on your credit card, they might be able to help aswell.

I bought the phone as a SIM free phone and not with a contract so I guess this makes things even worse.....but it was a mail order.... To be honest I think we are all totally screwed when it comes to dealing with this kind of problems....they will always say that the fault is ours and we can do nothing to prove it....

I meant your contract of sale, not the monthly contract for the talkplan.
When you buy something from someone, you make a contract with them. In your case your contract was with Expansys and they have a legal obligation to support reasonable claims of items being unfit for purpose or not in working order.
I contacted Expansys, lets see what they have to say now....
Anyone know of any consuner rights group that might be able to help?
Thanx

The UK Government has a website that might help:
http://www.consumerdirect.gov.uk/
You can call them for a chat too. Might be worth a try.
Or put "uk consumer rights" into Goooooogle and see what comes up.
One interesting paragraph on this page says:
No excuses
The law says it's up to the seller to deal with complaints about defective goods or other failures to comply with your statutory rights. Don't accept the excuse that "It's the manufacturer's fault," although you might also have additional rights against the manufacturer under a guarantee.
Think twice before you buy from a trader who displays a 'no refunds' notice. It is against the law, unless it also tells you that this does not affect your statutory rights .

I think Expansys have some wriggle room on the guarantee if in the small print of their terms and conditions (that you read and agreed to when you bought the Universal, right? ) it says that they're acting as agents to the manufacturer only. I think that kinda gets them out of warranty obligations and means your contract of sale would be with whoever they mention in their T&Cs. I've never bought from them though, so I've no idea how they operate.

You are right, I did a bit of searching in some goverment sites and it states that when they act like agents you cannot blame them for anything....you have to take it up with the manufacturer.
Some useful stuff I found out are:
http://www.dti.gov.uk/ccp/topics1/facts/distancesell.htm
http://www.euroconsumer.org.uk/
http://www.consumerdirect.gov.uk/links/index.shtml
I think everyone should take a quick read and finally know their rights....
Final Update!!
Since neither i-mate nor SBE would reply to any mails I finally paid for the repair of the phone. The guy I spoke to on the phone admited that they have a lot of Jasjars in for repairs and at most of them the warranty is not honoured....
This is a warning for all people wanting to buy one! DONT! The warranty will not be honoured in case it breaks down and i-mate is only good for advertising.....
DO NOT BUT THE JASJAR!
Would it be the same case trying to get warrenty for the O2 version?
I have had a similar problem and have had enough of O2 and need some advice. 2 months ago I plugged the charger into my XDA Exec and the charger port got pushed back into the phone. So I was a bit annoyed that this would happen but I took it to the O2 shop who said it's not a problem and as the phone hasn't even been out a year it will be under warranty and should be no more than 3 weeks being repaired.
After four weeks I got a phone call saying that it wasn't under warranty and that the cost for repair would be £350 because they had to replace some sort of chip. I know this isn't true as the phone worked perfectly it just couldn't be charged. So I said I would not pay this and I wanted it returned. After a week still no sign of the phone I called O2 to tell them the whole story and they said that it could be repaired under the warranty and it wasn't a problem, I just had to send it straight to the repair centre without going through the shop.
I sat and waited until today 2 months after the phone originally broke and it got delivered back to the O2 shop.
I think it's disgusting that this has happened and wondered what my next plan of action should be??

This doesn't work like that in all country's ! In Holland they suppliers is responsable, the is : The name in Header on the bill. They could say the're only agents, but when they give you a bill with their name on it, you bought it for tehm, thus; they are responable...
NO FINEPRINT CAN EVER OVERRULE ANY LAWS....
Hey all,
I got my phone back today and guess what???? It does not charge or gets recognised by the computer....It was returned with a QTEK ROM although it is a Imate phone....
I am now sure this imate/SBE thing is all a nice scam that rips people off....

If you paid for the repair then sue them for not repairing - find their local trading standards office in the UK to complain to, complain to your VISA company etc etc.
Do you have anyone in the UK who can do this for you?
Richard
rICHARD,
I told them that I did not get what I paid for and I am expecting a repair. They came back saying that they do provide warranty for all repairs they make so they will accept it back and repair it without any more cost for me....
The only thing to do is wait and see....I will post back any news....
Why not report them for piracy to HTC / Microsoft? I am led to believe loading a rom from one manufacturer onto another's device amounts to software piracy as your software was bought from i-mate and you now have Qtek's O.S.....
Expansys
I bought mine through expansys you have to show proof of purchase, you can get this by emailing expansys or digging up your old email confirmation. The rest of your problem seem to be bs.
1.) email I-mate [email protected]
2.) If I-mate gave you an rma number you don't pay for anything
3.) once you get you phone in prepare to wait
argyris,
Have you tried to insert another SIM card in the phone?
I have this weird problem with the JJ. I have 2 SIM's with 2 different Operators. The JJ works just fine with one SIM .....
BUT, when I insert the other SIM, I can make calls normally, but I can receive only ONE call (i mean it, ONE), after that the damn thing won't receive calls anymore!
After trying to make calls for several times it does work, but again, one incoming call and that's it.
I tried that SIM in the 8800, it works just great.
Anybody has an idea on what's going on?
Thank you guys..

warranty question

all heros have 12 month warranty right? you dont need to apply for it? if anything goes wrong with your phone then you just need to contact htc ? am i right?
thanks
That very much depends on where you are physically located, and where you physically bought the device.
My phone came from T-Mobile UK, and comes with a 1 year warranty. If I have a problem with the device in that time, I should go back to the original vendor (i.e. T-Mobile UK) to seek remedy. In addition, even though I only have a 1 year warranty, my statutory rights are not affected - see this link
Bear in mind that this is going to be covered differently in other regions.
Regards,
Dave
i bought it from ebay. its a simfree version
so will it still be covered.?
thanks
I couldn't tell you definitively.
Assuming you are in the UK, if you bought it from a UK company on Ebay and is was sold "new", then they are responsible. The same may well apply across the EU, but I'm uncertain of this.
If it was bought as second hand from an individual, the situation is not so clear, but it is probable that the original retailer should still be required to honour the warranty.
Regards,
Dave
I faced that issue some time ago and i contacted htc for a problem.
well from what they told me, if the phone wasn't bought at an official htc vendor, then you have no business with htc. Only thing you can do is you can send your phone to htc to get repaired or checked but you'll have to pay for it ( even if you have a guarantee from a shop)
You should contact the store where you bought the phone. And the catch at these local stores is that you should have your guarantee and receipt on your name to be able to claim it. so buying on ebay ...... i cant say for sure

Any Fix with Hero's GPS

Hi,
I've bought my HTC Hero a few days ago.
I've any fix with my GPS (gmaps, copilotlive, GPS Test).
I don't understand why
Any ideas ??
Best regards
Sorry i dont understand the question.
Are you saying thos apps dont work on the hero?
or that the GPS doesn locate you?
Im guessing there is a stock rom and everything is factory on it?
If so and the GPS doesnt work. Try standing outside. On a clear day to see if it will locate you in google maps. If it doesnt then i think you may have a defective unit. If its new it should definately be under the HTC warranty
I mean the gps don't locate me with google maps or copilot in outside locations
Sounds like you have a faulty unit then. register it online ith HTC support and send it back stating what is wrong, youl get a new one within a couple of days.
i've explained my problem to the customer service, but they don't want to send me a new phone. I've send it to a reparation center...I don't undestand why they don't want to give me a new one
you should ask them why they don't send a new one, not us...
do you have an answer from the customer service that you can paste here?
sry dbl post
You can try updating to a different radio version, I know that when I just updated to 63.18.55.06JU_6.35.09.26, it gave me bad hspa signals and gps does not fix as fast.
I recommend using 63.18.55.06IU_6.35.08.22 for your device, gave me the best for gps fixes since I was able to lock in under 5 seconds at my Han Ah Reum (korean food market with industrial architecture and concrete, which is difficult to even get cellphone signals at times).
Any Fix with Hero's GPS / Very bad HTC customer service
Thanks everybody for your answer.
kendong2 : I'm a french customer, and my english is not so good. I'll try to translate the answer : the want me send my phone to a reparation center. But i cant stay several days/week without my phone. Any explication why they don't want to change.
I've asked to explain my pb to a responsible, they told me he will call me back but any call since several hours.
I'm very very disapointed by the htc customer service.
princedwi : I don't want to break the warranty.
I've already purchased an htc hero pink to my wife with the same firmware, same operator, and any pb with the gps

I don't know about France, but in the UK it is the responsibility of person who sold you the goods to make good on any warranty. In addition, since the GPS has never worked, again in the UK you'd be perfectly within you rights to ask for a replacement or a refund because the good were faulty at point of sale.
I would have though that France would've had similar, if not stronger, consumer protection laws, and I assume that you didn't buy your phone direct from HTC, so why don't you go back to the seller?
Regards,
Dave
i am surprised.. you can not take it back to the place you purchased it... and have them replace it with a new one.
it is only a few days old..right?

Same in France and in any EU contry...European Union countrys have a minimum warranty policy of 15 days to get a new device and 2 year warranty on products above 50€.
Countrys can decide to have better warranty laws but never less then this.

Warranty service UK<----more than Poor

HI Guys
1st
I used to had HTC Blackstone.After 1st warranty service I've received Blackstone with new touch panel and screen!!!But with death pixels more than 3!!!So it went back to Miltone Keynes service centre.After 2weeks+ I was happy owner of serviced Black100.
2nd
My HD2 is going to Miltone Keynes again after 1st warranty service.
Just day after I've received my phone
Again death pixel on screen,screen is not align in housing.
HOUSING is kind of secondhand!!! it is obviously not my!!! It has scratches on different places.
Maybe missing kapton around speaker.<--light is coming up from grid.Cool
Looks like serviced somewhere far far east you know that Communist country?!!!
For now I hate Miltone Keynes service centre.
They are trying us a stupid costumers?!!?
Lied on service explanation in both cases!!
Waisting my time!!!, their money and our green planet
Only who is profiting is UPS delivery company.
S..t happens after 1y7m on HTC I was without Phone for 1m2weeks+
PS:sorry for my funny Engl......
Yes they are shockingly bad.
My blackstone had newton rings so as I'm near them I dropped it in.
They wanted to charge me nearly £200 to repair something which in other countries they cover under warranty.
Thing is, they hadn't sent me a link to the tracking page so I only found out when I called up after 2 weeks for an update. Had I left it much longer they would have disposed of my phone without telling me.
I arranged with the call centre to be able to go in and pick my phone up but they hadn't told the repair centre so they were baffled with my arrival.
I then took the phone back to the store I bought it from for them to try and get a warranty repair, they got the phone back with a report of "no dead pixels found" when the fault report sent with the phone didn't mention dead pixels. The store offered to try again but having been without my phone for a month I wasn't keen, so they put it through as an insurance claim and I got a new phone the next morning.

I feel sorry for all UK HTC underwarranty c....
Looks like it's a group of poor paid people.
Or they just traying cheat on us.
By the way It's not real HTC they are just ''official service''
Hope HTC will change it soon!!!
SO say no to Miltone Keynes service centre or be realy careful.....
One good thing about it being in the UK is UK consumer laws are pretty decent.
Merely mentioning trading standards when I was in reception got them to change their tune and go get me my phone.
Had I a spare phone I could have reported them to trading standards for not fixing newton rings under warranty when I could provide evidence that in other countries they were allowing them as warranty faults.
I hope UK law will be behind us if what New Scientist said recently is true. Apparently, touch screens have a limited life because of the manufacturing process and rare earth metals used. They said most last just 18 months but that luckily, most users upgrade before then. My screen is already losing accuracy making text input difficult. After spending £500 I expect my phone to be working for alot more than 18 months.
that sux for y'all. Can y'all not have insurance that covers this for you. In the USA I pay for the insurance through t-mobile. When my hd2 kept overheating, I bricked it on purpose (just to make sure they didn't try and say there was nothing wrong), called t-mobile, told them it wouldn't turn on. They overnighted me a phone. Didn't cost me anything except the monthly insurance fee.

can understand how a screen might wear out if you dont use a screen protector, with one however it should last for a very long time... unless i dont understand the tech
just about warranty
this is not a tread about screen lifetime.
I just disagree withy way how guys in UK --> Miltones Keynes working.
Isurence if fine but it can't fix errors done by service centre.
Im not sure if my insurence is covering 1 second repair.
I don't know what the problem is. I had the crazy screen sensitivity issue, agged lines, random key presses.
Had the phone 9 months, called them, tried the latest ROM, same problem, sent it back, 2 weeks later it reappeared working perfectly, no problems, no scratches.
I coudn't be happier with their service.

The great thing about the consumer rights acts is you are entitled to a reasonable length of use out of a product, so even if it comes with just a 1 month warranty and it fails after 3 months, if you can argue that it was resonably expected to last that long then the law is on your side and you're entitled to repair/replacement.

Insurance is for damage/loss, not breakdowns. Breakdowns should be covered by warranty/consumer protection laws, after all, if you're sold a shoddy item, why should it cost you to bring it up to the quality item you paid for in the first place?
Of course if something isn't covered by the warranty there's nothing stopping someone damaging their phone and claiming on insurance for a replacement.
Generally we have lower premiums and an excess to pay in the event of a claim, although you could find a policy with no excess but higher premiums.
Well
my HD2 is again on the way to service centre.
Let's wait for it!
I was just havig look all around my HD2 Looks like they found some used one in better contidion.Replace the sticker with IMEI an SN.-->Maybe they've put even my HW in to it.because IMEI and SN is still same----->second hand housing, screen with death pixels, sreen was't align in housing and few small s..ts.
I'll report next week hopefuly...
I'm in ...

Personally, I would e-mail HTC both UK headquarters and their Taiwan headquarters and explain how their repair service is unacceptable and is affecting their brand image as a producer of quality phones.

Good Idea but have you got Email adr... to HTC Headquarters??
Hi..
Just let you know my experiences of HTC & my HD2
Had a problem with the USB charging socket, it was loose/broken - the phone would no longer charge. Contacted T-Mobile UK and they asked me to send it via one of their shops for repair, which I duly did. It went to SBE in Milton Keynes (T-Mobs official repairer) who found water ingress (??) and therefore claimed the damage was OOW. So I contact SBE who agreed their report was wrong and that the damage was in fact caused by crushing or dropping (??) & was still OOW, they then returned the phone to the shop still broken.
So I emailed T-Mobs customer service and they suggested that if I was not happy (as if I would be) I should get a second opinion from HTC UK themselves and provided a phone number. I contacted them and they arranged for the phone to be collected. In the meantime I searched the web and found a few people having issues similar to mine with the USB port so I collected as much evidence as I could and printed and packed it in with the phone before they collected it, along with a letter explaining that I, and many others, did not accept that the phone was 'Fit for purpose'...
2 weeks after they picked it up, a replacement arrives on my doorstep!!!, same serial number, different IMEI and definitely a different phone. During the time that they had it they never contacted me to say what they were doing and the online repair tracker just indicated that they had received my phone.
Since I've had the phone, which is faultless, I have had 2 calls and 1 email from HTC asking me to complete a customer satisfaction form!!!
So - I think HTC UK, are, with a bit of persuasion perhaps, ... Brilliant!.. However, T-Mob won't be getting my business again...
Milton Keynes (T-Mobs official repairer) = HTC service centrum

Problem is still in guys>>>>> Milton Keynes (T-Mobs official repairer)---->IT's HTC official service centree as well!!!!
Im sure all HTC from any NetProvider must be fix in Milton Keynes anyway.
Hmm..
I did ask the question when I spoke to HTC and the guy on the phone assured me that they were not SBE, even though both addresses were in Milton Keynes..
To be fair, the addresses I had were different as was the paperwork!

A very BIG favor

Hi everybody
Need a big favor. Is there anybody that purchase hd2 in italy. I have few questions regarding global warranty. The situation is that my hd2 is broken and here in my country the original htc service won't repair it under a warranty. I have my hd2 under global warranty at least one year- till 2012. that's what on global customer support told me when they checked imei number.
What to do. I like my hd2 and i would like to repair it.

So what is the "big" favour?
I need scanned global warranty paper.
what???
HTC says it's covered for a year globally but not in Italy?
I lost the warranty paper when moving from one appartment to another.
And now when i contact htc support they told me that phone is in warranty but they cannot help me by providing some paper that i can show to our service technisons. So i need one scanned as they told me this way will be ok.
It a shame that they do not have any kind of global data base from where they can see if the phone is in warranty or not.
Like the htc support centre can see that phone is in warranty but the service isn't happy with that.
So if anyone know anyone that have italian global warranty. I need scanned form of warranty. I belive this form is in every box supplied with hd2.
I have defected touch screen(it stopped working). Yesterday I manege to fix it by pulling out the red power button lightley. It starded working but this isn't solution on long terms. The service for replacing screen is 180 eur.
So I turnet to you XDA people to help me out as you did so many times before.
Tnx for any replay
