Huewie rma third party purchase - Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Sorry if this has been asked on here before, but I'm having some problems with my nexus 6p. The finger print scanner seems is not functioning. After a reboot the option under settings now completely disappeared. I purchased the device through Third party. Can I just rma it through huawei? I know with my previous device (nexus 6) I was able to rma is no questions asked even though I was not the original owner. Thanks in advance!

You have a warranty on device?

Huewie Nexus 6pie

No there is no nexus protect on device. I'm asking about the manufacture warranty which is 1 year. But I did not purchase direct through huawei

You should be fine sending it in to get repaired.

[Q] Warranty from Google Play store?

Does anyone know if the warranty for the Nexus 7 (if purchased in the USA direct from the Google Play store) is transferable to a new owner?
I pre-ordered my Nexus 7 16GB during the Google IO announcement, and this weekend something on it borked out. Screen shut off and I couldn't turn it back on, and when I plugged it in the screen had a weird snowy/static pattern (accompanied by static crackling sound from the speaker).
I called Google and they are sending a replacement (that I basically had to order through the google play store but they are not charging my credit card unless I don't return the defective one).
So the reason that I ask is that I might just sell the replacement one since I now have a Galaxy Note 2 and the N7 isn't all that useful to me anymore. Can I claim that it is still under warranty until July (1 year from the date when I received the first one)?

I believe you could, but the best thing to do would be to call Google and speak with them yourselves. Although, I am sure that warranty transfer is possible

Yes. I called Google and they confirmed it and sent me an email I can provide to a future buyer that explains how they can get service.
Thanks!

Did the buyer then get the months that were left on the warranty?
Yes it is. I bought mine off of Ebay from some guy for 170$. The USB port was broken completely (wouldn't connect to any computer). I asked him about a return and he said I was S.O.L and to call Asus. So I just kept using it for another week or two until randomly it just shut down and wouldn't ever reboot again no matter what I tried. So I bit the bullet and called them. I gotta say they have OUTSTANDING customer support. All he asked for was the serial number and told me it was still under warranty period. I didn't even have to show a receipt or anything. They must be able to get purchase records by serial number or something. Anyways, he emailed me a FedEx pre-paid shipping label and less than an hour after getting off the phone with them I was shipping my Nexus at absolutely no cost to me. I sent it in to them Unlocked running a Rootbox nightly and a custom kernel. I recieved it today EXACTLY 10 days after shipping it out. It did get wiped ( I expected that) and it's running the stock 4.2.2. But it works great now and I can connect to my computer now.
In short, YES, it is transferable as long as it really is under the warranty period.
Asus, has EXCELLENT customer support in my experience and I would recommend them to anyone.

Asus customer service

I sadly broke my Nexus 7's(2013) screen and digitizer in less then 5 days. Shameful I know, but anyways I contacted Asus since there wasn't anything else I could do. Their customer service set me up with a representative within 5 minutes. I explained my problem and he told me that they can fix it but it may cost me. There wasn't another option so I said okay. So they sent me an email with a form and told me to ship my Nexus to a Asus repair facility. I did and within in a week they sent me it back and fixed the screen and digitizer for FREE! Yes free well unless you count the shipping which was a small price to pay for fixing the device that wasn't their fault in the first place. Anyways if any of you have problems contact Asus I'm pretty sure they can help you. I'm so happy thought I lost my Nexus.

That great to hear ASUS did that... +1 for Asus
Walmart sold me a 2 year accidental glass break/water damage warranty coverage for $28 it was a heck of a lot cheaper than Best Buys 2 year warranty at $70 so I got it. Hopefully if anything happens to the device its easily covered and ill get a new one instead of something fixed.
Off Topic - Does anyone have any experience with Walmart warranties they can share?
Asus was nice and pleasant to deal with.
I had to RMA one of my TF101s three times. It was the contracted repair shop (in Texas) who didn't fix the issue the 1st/2nd time.
They just re-flashed the stock image and sent back to me saying no-problem-found (I carefully documented the issue and suggested
they replace the mainboard due to faulty flash-storage). The 3rd time, I talked to Asus/San Jose directly and they asked the shop to
replace the board. It works beautifully since.
On the 1st RMA, somehow I unexpectedly got a new charger in the mail, from Asus (the issue was the unit didnot power on
even when plugged in). The 1st time I sent it out, it had a customROM onboard .. haha.
I've also only had good experiences with asus technical service. When my pc motherboard failed after a year, new one free!
Good to hear you had such a good experience with Asus.

ASUS Warranty FAIL

I got my Nexus 7 for Christmas. Immediately after using it I started having random reboot issues, as well as touch screen response problems. I requested an RMA and paid to have it shipped to ASUS. I received my device a little over two weeks later. I couldn't tell you if the reboot issue is fixed or not, because I haven't used the device at all. After pulling it out of the box I noticed that the bezel was cracked and missing a piece on the bottom left side of my device.
What kind of horrible Quality Control process does ASUS have when they repair a device?! Obviously they broke it while opening it up to replace whatever they replaced internally (motherboard maybe?). I sent an email to ASUS immediately after noticing the problem and said I wanted them to repair it ASAP and that I would not be paying for shipping again. I have not received a response, but received an automated message providing me with a new RMA number. No email from a customer service representative apologizing or offering to cover my shipping costs.
I'm pretty annoyed with Google/ASUS and don't think i'll ever buy an ASUS product again.
Just though I'd share to warn anyone else who may be on the fence.
Why was it not taken to the establishment that sold the device? Google or Asus should be your last step not the first, it's like you people are just looking for reading to cry about now

Because I bought the device online through an ebay retailer. Therefore Asus was my first step.

He's right though. If you are within 30 days (or whatever the return window is), always exchange it for a new device. RMA should be a last resort. I just went through this with Dell with my Venue 8 Pro. I called Dell for tech support and they wanted me to send it in. I told them there was no way in hell I was sending a brand new tablet in for repair and I am just going to exchange it through Amazon. What amused me is that they insisted I don't do that and send it in to Dell. I told them to suck it.
With the situation you are in, I would keep calling Asus until you get ahold of someone who is actually helpful. I've never dealt with them before so I don't know how hard a task that may or may not be. Where was the tablet purchased from? If it was from Google, you might want to call them and explain the situation, they have seriously awesome customer service.

While I agree in principle, taking it back to the dealer first doesn't always work. Best Buy for example, has a 14 day limit. I bought my Transformer Prime from a company that simply refused to do replacements or returns (on the Prime specifically, for the record.. they must have heard in advance of the problems with that device...). It's even worse with Google because although it's a Google device - made for Google and sold on their website as their product - if you buy it ANYWHERE but from Play, they won't touch it.
I hate to make the obvious comparison but... consider iPad owners. Regardless from whom they buy the tablet - they can take it to any Apple Store or have it returned to Apple for repair. For them, Apple is the FIRST place you go unless you're returning it for a refund. And in general, Apple actually fixes the defective device (if it's within warranty period or if you have AppleCare) without giving the customer a hassle.
The guy's complaint is basically 'why can't ASUS be that good' - your response seems to be 'because they aren't.' More to the point, consider what you're actually suggesting: that ASUS is such a poor company to deal with that you shouldn't deal with them until you're out of options. Worse, you're suggesting that this is OK and that the guy is at fault for expecting the company that makes his tablet to be responsive and helpful.
That's kind of.. bizarre.

Yeah, its his fault that someone else damaged his tablet, right?
XDA users are so rude these days...
Swiss asus repair is pretty good. Got 2 tablet with defects and they fixed it in 2 and 3 weeks.
It depends where you send it for repair.
Asus repair issues? First I've heard of that...
Being in the computer retail and service industry, I sell MANY asus monitors, and I've had great success with them not having issues. Only twice have I had to deal with customer service, and in both instances they sent me replacement monitors and a shipping label to return the defective units.
That's a real shame you've had a bad experience with them, and as someone suggested, call customer service and request a higher level tech support/customer service agent until you are satisfied.
For future reference, do that for every customer service line you ever have to call, EVER.
While browsing, I found this report about a user's abysmal experience with the Asus customer support for a RMA'd N7 2013:

6P Dead and Huawei Won't Help

I purchased a used Nexus 6P a couple of months ago. It died while I was using it a few days ago. It will not show any signs of life whatsoever. It will not even accept a charge.
I spoke to Huawei and explained the problem. They refuse to repair the phone even though I am willing to pay for the repair. They say that if I do not have a valid receipt (Ebay, Swappa, etc. don't count) that I am out of luck. Amusingly, I was told that they have a way of determining if the phone was ever rooted (which I do not believe) and that if it was ever rooted, this also voids their responsibility for repairs even out of warranty.
I have never had a hardware failure like this and have tinkered with perhaps 20 phones over the years. I have never run across this situation before.
Can anyone suggest an alternative or do I though this expensive device in the trash?
Man hate to hear that for you! I recently took my wifes LG G3 which would not keep the screen on and fixed it. I know it's a totally different issue probably. But the point was I was able to test my working G3 with hers and found that it was the MAIN BORAD...so I bought a $50 broken screen phone off eBay and opened it up and swapped boards. Phone works great now.
Wondering if something similar could be done for you. Maybe there are some "broken for parts" versions out there you could get for cheap. If your handy at all....it's typically just screws and small parts. You might even find a replacement video on YouTube.
Good luck! Sucks...sorry.
Thanks for the kind words. I agree that it is likely the main board, but the 6P is such a bear to work on that I am not eager to throw more money at it unless I could have some degree of confidence that I wil succeed.
Do you know where was the phone purchase originally?. Google or Huawei?
Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk
Sorry to hear!!
But actually, I do believe they can tell if the phone has been unlocked (which I believe you need to root)
The phone came from a re-seller, so it is impossible to say.
One can easily re-lock the bootloader. I don't believe that unlocking leaves a trail, so to speak.
For sure Huawei has a bad rep for customer support. A few good reports here and there, but mostly stories like yours. That is exactly why I bought mine directly from Google and purchased the Nexus Protect package. I paid a little more than getting it from Amazon, but the peace of mind is worth it to me. Perhaps you can find a local phone repair place to help you out?
I would happily send this to a third-party repair shop, but I cannot guess who would have access to the parts.
Call some of them and ask if they can get the parts.
Wow this is clearly unacceptable!! I mean the phone is not even 1 year old yet how can they refused repairing it? They want the receipt but who cares about that if the phone is not even 1 year old...
Stories like that make me dont wanna buy phones from Huawei anymore! Try again until they accept repairing it.
Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk
Talk to a local repair person and see what they will do. Parts are available (http://www.globaldirectparts.com/Huawei-Google-Nexus-6P-Parts-s/24884.htm), so the question will be if the repair person has had experience with the phone before and what kind of risk they and you are willing to take.
Does anything happen when you plug it into your computer any sound or vibration?

Huawei Warranty

I purchased a Nexus 6P through Best Buy (US) during May of last year and just recently have encountered a problem with the volume up button being stuck and the power button not locking the phone. These weren't caused by dropping the phone or any specific occurrence like that as far as I can remember. My screen has also been cracked for a while, but that was a separate issue. I called Huawei to check if the button issue is covered by the warranty and they said to fill out a ticket and send pictures and they would let me know. The problem is that I also have a one year warranty through Best Buy, but it would have a service charge attached and I wouldn't be getting a 6P; they would send me a gift card instead. I'd rather have the 6P repaired or replaced than have to buy a different phone through Best Buy, but if it takes too long for Huawei to assess whether or not the phone is under warranty, then the warranty for both will expire and I won't have either. Does anyone have any advice regarding this situation or experience with what Huawei will cover under their warranty?

Personally I'd go the Best Buy route and get a different phone.
I had a bootloop of death - Google turned me down because I was out of warranty, I was transferred to Huawei, who said I was also out of warranty with them as well. They offered a "repair/replace" service for $164.00 since this has been a known and problematic issue. They told me I would have the phone in 10 business days - for which it would be repaired or, they would just send me a new one to replace it. I just got the device today; its brand news. Battery is good capacity, so far no bugs - we will see though. All and all - if you end up getting the repair/replace option and you can afford to pay the extra cash for a phone you already spent a bunch of extra cash on.... it was worth it.

Hello,
I don't really want to read all the page, so I'll leave it to you: http://consumer.huawei.com/us/support/warranty-policy/mobile-phone/index.htm
Considering your N6P is almost one year old and all the problems surrounding​ the device at the moment:
Bootloop of death
Defective batteries
I'm not sure if it's worth it. It could last forever, but also fail next month when your warranty will be over...
If you don't loose much between the "service charge" and the Best Buy gift card, I would go that route and start looking for a new device. But that's just me...
Good luck...

I agree, to keep hammering them for a replacement is the right move. One thing to keep in mind is many of the recent reports about interactions with Huawai have indicated they seem to be trending towards playing hardball. Sooner than later would be my advice on working them for a replacement.

The device has zero battery degradation, and hasn't had a battery shutdown problem at all even though I was trying to trigger it through going on a walk in the cold this morning while suddenly using the camera. Other than the headache of losing a few pictures and spend $164 that I shouldn't have had to spend in the first place for a hardware malfunction...... I am very pleased to be rocking a solid Nexus 6p

Huawei was nothing but quick and efficient with my order. They didn't grant me an out of warranty replacement, but they did get me a new device within a week of their shop receiving it. Also, for posterity, they sent me a Huawei brand pen. HAHAHA. That kinda added insult to injury - just the same - I wouldn't believe all the complaints about Huawei's lack of costumer service - they were quick in all my interactions with them.

Hey,
They were just "quick" to ask you some money and nothing else... For something you shouldn't have had to pay for. That's all I see here.
Did you get someone/something telling you it won't ever happen again? Or did they/it also said: goodbye, see you next year? Since they didn't acknowledge the issue, no one knows if they ship crappy batteries/motherboards/phones or if they manufactured new batteries/motherboards/phones which is unlikely.
And this is supposed to be a good customer service? Damn it...
May I ask you what is your build date in bootloader > barcodes? Just so you know what to expect? Also we can have an idea...
Thanks...
I had bought the Nexus 6P from a friend. No receipt or anything. Since my phone bootloop like everyone else , I decided to go into the main boot screen and chose " barcode ". in that screen , it will show seriel # , IMEI # , model # and build date of the phone, which was 03/04/2016. Knowing that the phone was produced back in march , I know that the warranty can't be expired. I decided to call Huawei. The warranty did not expired yet. I was lucky to call in and inquire about getting it repaired.
So if you bought a phone , and not sure of the warranty , go into the recovery screen , toggle through the menu ( recovery, bootloader , start , barcode )and choose barcode to see the detail of the phone and check the production date.

Hello,
Actually it's the bootloader, not the recovery screen... :good:
You can also go on Huawei site and enter your IMEI. It will give you the warranty's period.
Also, you are lucky. Depending on who answer the call at Huawei, they refuse to repair/replace the phone without the receipt.
Cheers...
Sorry for hijacking the thread but I'm suffering from the early shut down and have contacted Huawei who have confirmed the phone is still in warranty until end of this year and have created an RMA.
However they've sent me the envelope to post the phone back but state you need to return with the a copy of the receipt which I don't have as I purchased it from eBay. It was originally purchased from CPW and was unlocked! Can someone please confirm if Huawei accept warranty returns without the receipt?
Note... I'm in the UK and the phone was purchased from CPW in the UK.

Hey,
It seems like it depends who you talk to at Huawei. Some have been asked for a copy of the receipt, some others haven't. Will they repair it if you send it without the receipt though they have asked for one..?
Not sure, as so much people must have sent them N6P lately due to bad batteries and bootloop... I think they are actually trying to find anything they can to refuse the repair for those who are not original owners. At least people who don't own the receipt.
Hoping I'm wrong and you'll get your phone back, up and running..!
Good luck...
My 6p shut down at approx 40% twice last week (on Dirty Unicorn) and according to Huawei, I only have 1 more month of warranty left. I just sent in the pictures, imei and s/n and now they'll send me a label. I plan on flashing the August factory image and locking the bootloader before sending it in, of course.
so...how long will I be without a phone? I don't have a backup.

Have you tried speaking to Google or Huawei about it? Thats really the first and only step. Like I said before I mine was OUT of warranty so I just paid the money for Hauwei to fix or replace the device. Call them! They will ask you questions and take you through the whole process.
