Need help to ruin my phone but there's a catch. - Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers

I have s7 edge I'm one phone off from getting a s8 plus through my insurance claim that's the catch. It can't be bricked and must seem like a defect. Any help would be appreciated. Ps it must look like it's a random acurance or I'll be charged for the phone replacement witch is a no go. They do check the phone prior from leaving the refurbish warehouse. So I can't simply brick it.
Cheers,

So... you need help publicly committing insurance fraud?

Op, you're an idiot.

Mod Edit
What you are asking for is help to commit fraud.
Please find some other site for such requests.

Issues with Subsidy Unlock Code for HTC G1

So, guys, I'm aware that if a T-Mobile USA customer calls and requests a code, they can get it for no cost. I actually don't mind paying for the code, but these third party sites seem really shady, and I don't want to invest my only 15 bucks on me and have it tied up in PayPal claim litigation for a week.
So, if this is allowed on these forums, could someone with T-Mobile USA service call in and request an unlock code for the HTC G1 IMEI ..........edited by moderator.........? I would really appreciate it, and would even PayPal you the $15 as long as the code worked. My email is [email protected].
I read through the rules on this section and didn't see any against this sort of thing. If I missed it, I am terribly sorry. It won't happen again.
You should not post your IMEI in a public forum,it can be used for illegal purposes !
if any one can help you then use Pm. to communicate.
good luck
regards
faria
Oh no, I just noticed my IMEI was edited out. I hope I didn't just break a rule. Really sorry, please PM me and let me know what's up.
Maybe someone could even suggest a reputable company that has unlocked their HTC G1 in the US before? Certainly not HTCunlock.net, there forums are filled with refund demands and hatred.

You didn't break a rule. It's just that people can look take your IMEI code and use it for "bad things."
He was just protecting you, not trying to punish you.
Definitely appreciated his advice. Thanks him in PM. And thanks to everyone else to PMed me offering to help. I got the issue taken care of and I can say that I am finally rocking one of the best phones T-Mobile has to offer Thanks again all.
Same issue as the orginal quoter

I am Dolcedavinci - Devs please dont close

Hello all. I was member dolce davinci until I asked to get my account closed. the reason I wanted it closed was to get away from xda.
My deal with mycomouterisjunk left me with a broken one s. HTC charged me to get blackrain1983s amaze fixed ( thankfully he is covering half the cost ). both deals are solved but I am left with a damage phone and my bank account in overdraft.
And the bummer of all, usps denied my insurance claim on the one s.
My reason of making this thread is to ask for donations. please, what ever you have will be appreciated . the LCD for the one s is $160, I am not asking for the whole thing but any little monies will help.
I still don't have a phone, I am using black rains amaze untill I ship it in a couple days. some members offered to donate phones but since i closed my account that didn't happen.
I know u guys might want proof that I am DOLCEDAVINCI and I will post some later, we still have a power outage in the DMV and I am on a phone.

Wrong section either way bro.
Why did HTC deny your warranty on the Amaze? What did they say was actually wrong with it? Water damage?
Wondering what inspired you to post in this section.

Did I miss an election where you were appointed to be a spokesperson for all forum members?
Well here's how I see it:
You sent the Amaze to the guy and he said it was bricked. HTC did NOT honor the warranty meaning there was something wrong with it like water damage or dropped or something. Then the One S arrives to the other dude with a cracked screen. Both deals looked kinda shady. And it should not cost that much to fix an LCD/Digitizer/screen assembly at a 3rd party store, maybe at HTC it would be that, check around bro. Also, you said blackrain was going half on you with the Amaze right? so you're not out TOO much. I say sell the One S and buy a cheaper device, or trade it for a Sensation or something as-is if you can.
You then ask to have your account disabled because you want to steer clear of XDA, but create a NEW account to ask for donations for deals that looked shady that you're already getting half for on one? That is serious nuts dude.
"I want to stay away from this site, but changed my mind to come ask for donations because of my bad decisions"
That's just unsavory bro.
And yeah I might be coming off as heartless, but I did donate to jcash and I do help out when it seems warranted.
Just my opinion, you can think on it or chew it over or throw it away or whatever.

"Who gives a f***?" can actually mean that the person who said doesn't actually care and not necessarily implying that NO ONE cares, although that implication is also a valid interpretation, so the possibility exists he meant only to communicate (quite emphatically and bluntly might I add) that HE does not actually care and did not mean to infer that no one on the boards actually cares.
I am still battling it out with HTC. I had my card on file from when I wanted to get a replacement battery but that doesn't give them the right to charge me. everything went like it was supposed to be fixed free because they didn't even alert me through email but there is a hold in my account pending removal from HTC USA for 249.99.
after long aruing through email, black rain sent me $140 but out of that I still have to send the amaze to Jordan with express ( or else there will be no tracking ). I am not asking donations for HTC repair cost. I am trying to get to get rid of it . hopefully its an error because when I track my repair status it doesn't show any update.
I posted here because I can't see the market.

Just call HTC and ask if you're being charged or not, sounds like you're not even being charged.
With the shipping to Jordan, find out from blackrain if no tracking is ok, or work something out, maybe he'll help for shipping (since he agree to pay half the repair cost that may not even be charged).
It sounds like you can work this all out so you have a phone and everyone is happy without having to solicit donations here, the fact that you don't want to be on XDA but came back just to ask for donations looks bad too.
HTC wouldn't just charge you for ****s and giggles. I remember my sister broke my N1 and was hoping they would just replace it since they already had to replace the screen twice for faulty hardware. Well they decided I would have to pay for it and they sent me multiple emails and even a certified letter until I responded.
For legal reasons, they won't charge you without documentation of you agreeing to the costs and terms. They might put a HOLD, but they won't charge you. I went to a restaurant with my girlfriend once at a hotel I was not staying at and they put a hold for $100 on my account, but only ended up charging me the actual cost (something like $40-something).
You can just go to your bank and tell them you didn't authorize it. They will remove the hold while they investigate.
Problem solved.
Now can a mod please close this pathetic thread.

How to check if S4 is on stock Rom

hi All,
I have sold an S4 active on ebay. user is saying the screen is freezing up on making calls.
If I accept the return how do I confirm that buyer has not rooted or updated the OS from stock?
Please help..
Thanks
If its returned to stock you can't but if not, system settings, about phone. You'll see the kernel, build version,etc.

You can go to Settings>About>Status and scroll down near the bottom to see if it says 'Custom' (rooted/custom ROM) or 'Official" (Stock).
Keep in mind there are some methods to gaining 'Official' status even with a rooted device, so if your buyer knows of such methods it may be impossible for you to tell if was modified.
Ask him for screenshots before he sends it back to you.

If it were me, I wouldn't even accept the return. The phone turns on, period. If it didn't then another story.
That is all.
Been there done that, I sold 2 G3 on ebay, and a one guy said it came on, and he didn't have a icon for gmail (dork), without telling me, he tried to get his money back thru ebay, ebay ask me what was up, I said, phone comes on, what else do you need to know, DENIED! needless to say, I won that battle.
Moral is: You sold a item on ebay and it works. End of transaction.

Yeah, we believe that... not. We are born with brains you know. If we tell you how to hard brick the phone you will do it then send it to your carrier asking for a new phone or a repair, the first post even says as much.
Please do not use XDA as a means to engage in fraudulent activities.

It's a silly thing about a $100 non activation fee. I cant get samsung to explain what its doing in my account and why it only shows up for Sprint and T-Mobile not Verizon or AT&T preorders on samsung.com
It's kinda just a PSA for people that have orders and didnt notice it OR people that havent ordered yet.
I dont know if anyone knows a contact at samsung to ask about it because customer service at samsung.com is worse than clueless.

Hmmmm, that's not something we usually would cover, mainly because we can't verify this just on one account. We would have to see if this is more widespread.
