[Q] Warranty Deductible

Why is the deductible so expensive? I broke my mytouch screen today and its suppose to cost 130.

I thought if you have insurance, they replace it free of charge without any deductibles or you don't have insurance?

Warranty doesn't include broken screens. For the you still have to pay.

Hell even if you have premium handset insurance it costs you the 130 deductible

Yeah just make sure you don't confuse insurance with warranty. Warranty covers things like manufacturing defects. Your insurance is what covers your loss or physical damage. The $130 you are paying is your insurance deductible.

It's because they send you a new in box retail mytouch 4g and th 130 is the deductible and to prevent abuse. It sucks agreed but better then $400 or whatever it is w/o a 2yr.

Still alot of money. What cases do you guys use? I had a body glove but it's trqsshh

Anytime (in most cases) you have insurance, you have to pay a deductible. If the phone is still under warranty, then tmobile will send you a replacement for free if it's defective.
If you file a claim, and you have a higher end tmobile phone, then the deductible is always 130.00. 130.00 is a hell of a lot better than full retail.

Tpu fusion is the best. I also have 2. Transperant blue and black. You can find them on ebay. Just type tpu fusion. They are cheap too. My black one cost me around 6 dollars and some change. My blue one not even 6 bucks.

My phone took a massive hit and now it keeps turning off :-(

This one had never been dropped. Tonight I was pulling it out of my pocket when some douchebag bumped me and it flew across the bar. Amazed the screen didn't crack but it broke my heart.
Time for yet another exchange...

Does anyone know if a last.kmsg will reveal anything interesting? I know it's a hardware problem but maybe it could tell me where?

Bet the battery is missing contact with the points... Try a folded piece of paper between the battery and the cover.
Edited cause I suck at Swype!

" Void" sign on back inside cover of Wildfire

Hey everyone,
Just yesterday as I opened the back of the Wildfire I noticed on the lower left corner (with the back being the screen ) a small opening like a screw opening. But inside the opening it said "VOID" . Anyone know what this is or anyone have the same thing? I will post screenshots when I can get to a desktop.

If the VOID sticker is peeled off, then say goodbye to your warranty. So leave it alone; every Wildfire has it.

Mine doesn't¡
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using xda premium

It's a general feature on almost all consumer electronic devices, where almost all of them have some sort of a sticker over a port / screw. It's there to prevent you from disassembling your device in any "unauthorized" manner. (If you care about your warranty, obviously)
(Mine has it as well. Remove the backcover, and the bottom-left screw (Just below the SDCard Slot / Silver bar of the battery below the point of contact) has this sticker)

I know where it was! Lol
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using xda premium

So you disassembled your device already?

My Wildfire looks good when assembled... So, I'm not interested in trying to view that screw

Sent from my HTC Wildfire using xda premium

it should probably state, void if seal broken, but that would be insanely small and impossible to read so actually that suggestion is quite pointless, still, it would cut the confusion, even if u did need a magnifying glass

Stupid question

The speakers holes+rain...easier to get water damage?
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app

I wouldn't think so as my DHD had holes on the speaker and I have never had the problem. However the holes were a lot smaller but I still highly doubt it.

Well lets hope so eh lol

I don't think you can change the front casing without the screen since it's one piece like you said. You might be able to sperate them with some prying but it probably won't seat very well when installed again and plus you'll have to buy a screen with the front casing because I really doubt anyone sells them sperate.

No I found a website that sells it with the screen or just the front because I don't wanna spend 200$ just for casing but thank you
