My phone kept rebooting.

Wot steps did u try, to resolve the reboot problem, such as flashing new roms or using seus/pc companion to repair if u was on stock. if u tried all these and it didnt work then mayb it is a hardware fault and u was right to send it off, but if u didnt u should tried some of the steps but oh well lol. mines jus been sent off cos of faulty usb port

They have no right to do so! they should be replaced with the same or get a refund. Call Support
P.S: maybe it's temporary replacement?

I will go to o2 on Tuesday and ask about it, i seriously dont see how it could be right, since I AM paying for different phone.
I remember how the dude in the store wanted to sell me galaxy s but I specificity got x10.

Hi, in o2's small print it does say they will replace with refurbished or similar spec handset if original is not available.

Sony Ericsson Repair Center. Unlocked phone = locked.

I sent my old X10 to sony ericsson to get repaired. when i sent the phone. It was unlocked. Now i received it today to find out it was locked. The imei number is the same. And even the sticker behind the phone is the same / same imei.
Am confused to why / how the phone is locked again. And why the phone looks like it had a new housing on it. ?? It was just a charging fault. .. No complaints tho my screen looks new and the same unlock code i purchased a while back worked..
Just confused to how the phone was locked again. And the case was replaced ? Did they just put my board into a new housing?

How to get into a nexus s 4g for free!

I got my epic before the nexus s 4g came out so I just looked up here one day and bam. There of was perfect directions on how to root and do everything. Everyone has been so helpful especially the ACS team. If you wanna know how to get a free nexus through sprint pm me and ill tell ya how I did it. PS. Hope you get gingerbread soon.
All I can say is thanx this workefd in like 15 mins
Imma try tonite. When y'all called, did you mention the nexus by name, or just tiptoe around until they offered it?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
All I did was I called Sprint *****ed about the epic and said that I wanna get on a new phone the lady said that's OK and she gave me a few to choose from and the nexus s 4g was one. I am using it right now rooted and all ****s amazing.
That's what I did sorry I can't respond to all to everyone I did not exspect to get over 200 inbox messages. Hahahaha. I did have 3 people that it worked for already

Well I just tried and they told me I have to go to repair center to diagnose the phone. Now I'm not sure if I wanna go there because that means I'll have to put my phone back to stock but if this really works I'll definetely do it.

OOOoooo, sounds shady and unethical.
Craigslist, (still shady but more ethical ) , ftw
Here's the Secret,
1. Sign up for TEP
2. Use the phone for two calls
3. Brick your phone on purpose by erasing the bootloader
4. send it in for TEP and request a Nexus S

He wants the attention
Just got shot down. Said I had I power button issue and ****ty service. They said I needed to have my epic replaced 3 times before I wo9uld qualify for a nexus. I'm pretty slick. I've gotten replacements for nothing before, and I didn't mention the nexus until she did. Instead, she made me a service ticket and told me to take it to a corperate service center, since I told her I had been told to call the hotline by a 3rd party store.
I guess ill try again another day.

Singapore Galaxy S3/S3 LTE Owners thread (Reviews, Discussions n More)

Hi guys,
The lucky ones who already got SGS3/SGS3 LTE, please share ur feedback, suggest the place where we can find better deals, etc.
from xperia PLAY
Just a little heads up that the phone is slightly curved on the outer rim around the screen so screen protector might not stick nicely around the edge due to the gap cause by the curve.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using XDA
I'll be staying in Singapore for 6 months, does anyone know if I can get a good deal on this phone through a contract for 6 months (or even paying for a 1 year contract that I wont use half of)?
Would the phone then work with T-mobile when I come back?

Yeah, today I have used SGS3 and it was pretty cool, It wasnt as good looking as Xperias but its NOT ugly by any means..brilliant screen, smooth scrolling, no lag whatsoever..
Going to buy in couple of weeks, waiting for some price drop
I will skip Xperia this year!!!

Hi SG peeps! Just here to join the party Phones bought here in Singapore should work with any carrier in the world (of course it wont work on 4G) cus all the phones here cannot be locked to carriers according to some rules i heard awhile back. im undecided between sIII or the Nexus (yeah i know huge spec difference) but the ease of unlocking and hacking is a huge win!

Hmm... has anyone roots their SGS III in Singapore? I am gonna do that in the weekends^^

Ahhhhh F it!!

So my streak and I are fighting.
Its stuck in a boot loop and I cant get the mofo working!!
Im sticking with black berry as Ive been using mine with my playbook alot and
since my steak is a ***** I give up on it. I was thinking of selling it for parts.
Its an aws version, I have original battery plus 3 after market ones, data cable and a tpu and rubber outter box cases and extra screen protectors. If theres any interest I'll post up pics.
Ps the screen/digitizer is in perfect working condition.
I am open to offers if any one needs parts.

I switch cells between my blackberry and streak, I put the sim card back in the streak one day and it was boot looping. So I figured Id install streakmod recovery and flash a new rom. That didnt work as it went back into a boot loop. I tried qdl and streakflash and still nothing. Tried going back to stock and still nothing. So F it lol. Its good for parts and lcd/digitizer since the price of them is threw the roof.

boot loop? hmm.. did you try all the wipe data / wipe cache /wipe dalvik cache / sreakmod factory reset / dell factory reset
and last but not least... format the external sd?
I did everything and anything, in all I must have spent a good 65 hrs total.
I really love my streak cause it basically replaced my playbook and crackberry.
I cant figure it out and I just dont care any more lol. Every time I look at it I wanna throw it to a brick wall.
Damn wish I new how to fix it cuz I would trade ya hd2 lol

Oh well, if any one wants this ***** with all the extras let me know cause I'll sell it for uber cheap.
Well I picked up an s2 so I gotta try to recoop some funds.
So all in all there's the screen that's mint which works, the housing and battery cover, 4 batteries and 2 external chargers, 1 smoke tpu case and 1 rubber otter case. 100 shipped to the USA and Canada.

Yes I agree...contract prices are the same...I was always under the impression even if ur not due for a contract upgrade u can still resign and save 250 off retail...so the phone would be 639-250= 389 + tax....but yes I'm wondering too why it's so much

Early termination fee is 325 minus 10 bucks for every month in contract. Makes you due for another upgrade. 325 + 200 for s4 + 36 upgrade fee will save you a good bit of money compared to buying it outright.

That is true didn't think of it that way...maybe I'll look into that...
Maybe I'll wait til the phone is released and play with it in store first (which is what I should've done with the HTC one) before making that choice again

Not normally checked. Not like it's gonna say bootloader unlocked on the screen when they go to take the return. More than likely the person is just gonna check for damage and wipe it clean. Go ahead and reset it before you take it back up there.
