Cingular 8525 DEAD- 1/29/07 to 2/20/07

WSOD.
It happened a couple of times yesterday...screen went white. Then today it just went. Won't come back. No matter what I do. So I'm callin Cingy.
It's a sad day people.
If you are getting the WSOD...take care of it before your HTC device goes to the ever after.

what finally did it? you know what you did to make it start WSODin?

I don't know. It has happened about 3 times since I got it. Then yesterday it did it like twice. Then today it did it once earlier and the second time it just did'n't come back.
It hasn't been dropped or dunked. I even had someone take pictures and send it to my phone but I can't get to the photo. I had just done a hard reset and it was booting up and the screen was white with streaks of colour. Then when I used the stylus it went all white and stayed white.
I've taken the battery out, put it back in, taken it out put it back in....
Clearly there is an issue with the LCD. I'm not happy cuz I didn't want one of their refubared warranty exchanges.

sorry to hear it dude
my 8525s dead too, from early january til about 2 weeks ago
LCD problem too, but mines a little more serious and it wont b covered by warranty via Cingular =(

Nope, mine ain't broke. IT is for sure a major issue with the lcd. What's funny is when it does come up about 3mm of the graphics from the bottom show @ the top.
Watching the not so slow demise was pretty fun. Being without a phone for a day is not. I gotta dig up my 8125.
Hey I just noticed you have a camera hole on yours. How'd you swin that. PM me with the jdetails....Ms. X

Hoping for $550 AUD + user pays postage, but i'll consider any decent offer. (bumped)
I also have a official Jawbone bluetooth headset for sale, these lil fellas are probably the best out there. For seperate or combined sale.

That's all the pics for now.

bump for $550.

Hi there, my first post here. You still interested in selling? Is the unit working without problems, what rom is running? Cheers.

Interested, too
Love mine. Can't always find my keyboard, and the housing on mine is a lot, lot worse than yours. I'm also having doubts about my mini usb connection - seems that I plug it in too much. Housing by itself was running US$180 in July, but it looks as if the guy has run out of them: I can't find any now.
I live in the US, and I just checked exchange rates, so it comes out to about US$360, today.
PM me. I'm very interested.

PM me... I consider this sold for that price.
Thank you.

Still waiting on a response
I'm guessing you've got a buyer - but please let us know. If you feel inclined, it would be helpful to know how much you got for it so we can deduce a good going rate.
Thanks!

I've been seeing them go for 450-550 here in the US

If it's still going for sale ... I'm in Darwin so it won't be so far to ship
Send me a pm or email if it's sale going begging.

I'm a typical female blonde that needs some HD2 help

Can you help me please, as I don't really know about these things.
I found a HD2 on eBay UK, number: 160877136223 - I can't add a link as xda doesn't allow it.
My partners HD2 started failing about a month ago and thought I'd buy her a new one.
What do you think? Bargain? x

Looks good & clean, how much is it if it's this one http://tinyurl.com/96j2tuq
have you considered other models? why the HD2 again?

Its a great phone and it looks good grats!

Thanks mengfei that's the one (as your link shows) and currently only for eBay bidding/auction style only, so only time will tell how much I get it for, as most of the others are either heavily used or terrible sales lots. I've contacted the seller, who has been very friendly and and will happily allow me to collect it from him, as I'm local to his location in East London.
My partner always goes on about how good her HD2 is and (from what I remember) switches between Windows and Android often. I've been using a Huawei Ascend G300 for about a month now and though it's brilliant, her HD2 (when it worked) still would do better, so a new one would be best I feel.
The bids are still very low for it and the additional accessories will go down a treat for me, lol!
Does xda have a G300 forum, as I have some questions about it?

Actually it really a good phone no wait it's a Legendary phone the HD2!
with so may custom ROMs out there & yes you can even dual boot from it.
IF you can get it brand new at around $230 then it's a good buy since used ones go for around $150

Thanks mengfei, the phone is new, has all basic accessories, some warranty even and more bits. It's currently still at a very low price, includes free recorded delivery and only a few hours left!! So I'm very hopeful to get at a bargain!!
Wish me luck everyone

Hey! If u want to buy this phone, and if u like this phone; don't put urself in a standarts like "typical female blonde" u r extraordinary person. U'll feel it when u have the legend believe me. (my english is bad sorry ^^)

Has anyone seen anything like this?

It is really weird.
After a night with my friends at a bar, I remarked the second day that this had happened to my phone. I DO have a case, it did NOT fall and there's no screen protector on. Seems like it's an bubble under the screen! Also, there's no crack on the phone which is really weird.
PS: Being dark outside, I can'T even tell when this happened during the night.

that is strange, did you leave in the sun by any chance before hand? looks like a defected problem on the external surface of the phone are you still under warranty?

Device defect, take it back.

Yeah still under warranty and I didn't leave it under the sun except one time in July! It was in my car and it said phone cannot charge too hot or something like that! But this was a long time ago and I don't think it could be related!

Ah I know exactly what happened.. It's got a skin disease.

I just received this from them today. Don't know what it should mean. Covered by the waranty or not? They're not too clear about it. Anyone?

I would think it would be covered by the warranty, but what does it say about cosmetic stuff? I would make sure to tell them something else is wrong with it that's covered by warranty so you get a new one.

did you hear anything back about this?
I have the same problem and I took it to an AT&T store and the guy there said he had seen it multiple times. He also couldnt give me a new phone then and there.
What did you do to get it fixed/replaced?
I am still under warranty.

To be honest, I didn't try anything yet. Everything involved sending the phone and waiting which I didn't have time to do. Also, they didn't specify nothing about the cost. Everything was going to be determined there. So I'm just going to wait till my finals are over and I'll go directly to the service center and see there. My cell phone company couldn't exchange it for me neither.
PS can you post a pic of your screen? How did it happen in your case?

Unfortunately, that's the problem with these odd ball units, there is alot of promises with little delivery and after sales support.

So you bricked it installing the Firmware sent by the seller? and they won't take it back?

Well the story is I bought it off eBay from UK as new. I paid £45 plus postage, when I saw it didn't work I said to seller give me a 50% refund if agreeable and I'll have a play, so all in all only £22.50 lost and a bit of postage so I'm not loosing any sleep lol. I'm quite tech savvy but just not quite enough. So rather than waste more time and energy I binned it lol.

Ahh yeah not worth sending back at that point. Probably was a brick from the seller then tho.
