Hi
I must give back my mda3 to my provider to repair on warranty. Arrow pad, down key isn't working. And second worse. My green key perform hard reset. First i was thinking it was bug of wm5, but not it wasn't. I think it is hardware issue. It is annoying when you want to answer a call and you perform a hard reset.
And questions now.
I've got roms from my provider. But when installing wm5 i've readed that there is doing something with extrom. I've formatted it back to 16mb, and all seems to be like factory defaults.
So if in service when they connect phone to PC, they can found i have voided warranty ??
regards
no it shouldn't be a problem, and my down key is broken too i just havn't had the time to send it in to get it fixed.
Ufff.
The broken don key isn't really a problem. But hard restting answer key IS. It hard reset even if phone is off and button lock is enabled in settings, so it must a be some kind of short circuit i think.
regards
I think that they will update your software on the phone, and think that they will notice that your extended rom password : eGnAeUlB is wiped out, so you broke your warranty.
I think that they let you pay for repairing your device. 8)
Hmmm
Is there possibility to put back on that password ?
NO!
just play the dumb customer and be like "uhh, all i did was use the updates on your site" :lol: (as you know they read these forums) you should be all good don't even sweat it.....then while they have it just tell them to install all the latest stuff....
I've found in warranty that they do not repair (under warranty) things that happened due to install third party software, so changing roms is not directly prohibitted but that says they will not repair damages that can be done upgrading roms from other provider.
And i think my problems have nothing to do with soft. I t hard reset in any circumastences. Even when i'm in config screen (after hard reset) pushing green button hard resets.
I think it is software independent.
I'll give it to service, and surely tell for few days, whats going on.
Today i'm gonna play stupid customer.
wish me luck
regards
from several days ago whem i touch in diamond icons never select the one i touch!!!... It selects the icon on left or right but never the right one....
When i have a phone call i select the green icon and it turns the phone off
What can i do?
I aligned the screen thousands of times, i installed the different calibrators and nothing.
I align screen, it works well for a few seconds and becomes crazy again. I soft reset, a tried everything i remember and always the same.....
Obvious question: Did you Hard Reset?
Try a hard reset.
If that doesnt work then it sounds like the screen is screwed, get the unit swapped.
I've just installed a new rom! I think i have to swapp the unit
The problems are the same. Anything more i can do??
If you just installed a new ROM, did you do a hard reset? To me it sounds as if the calibration for the touch sensor is off. The first thing that you do after a hard reset is calibrate the screen.
So you can try to calibrate the screen, bofore doing the hard-reset.
You can but when you hard reset you just have to do it again
Also, you could check your local optician for any additional problems.
No, but honestly, a hardreset and recalibration should fix the problem. I'm aware that GNes/GSen can give some problems if it thinks it has rotated the screen, but I've never seen that occur outside programs that don't rotate the screen by themselves.
If that doesn't work, Sync it, back it up, whatever you want to do, possibly flash to stock and return it to whereever you bought it/HTC to get it swapped.
thank's everybody... I tried it all and the same. Going to swapp
have the same problem.. it wasn't there before, had the phone for 3 month.. i think it has to do with water under the screen, used it in the rain and then it began to behave this way (due to the big speaker hole maybe?) , it works fine otherwise! Any idea how to fix it? waterdamage? - guarantee or what?
I think it´s wierd if you can´t use it when it´s raining..?

How many phones can be used risk free in rain?
i don't think that's the problem. no water in my phone, rain or other....
i think it started after gsen installed...may be wrong, or else or.....
Very little chance Gsen having anything to do with it. Many people are using that (including me) with no ill effects.
Hmmm, I though I was the only one with this problem. I'm on the second unit now, the first one always do soft reset by itself after every few wake up. Now the alignment always gone off after few minutes of use. I'm waiting for the replacement unit now.
Initially I thought it was because of the ROM update I did, but even after I restore the original ROM, it still happen.
Looks like I'm quite unlucky with the Diamond .
problem solved!!!!
gone to look for assistance.
After 3.30 hours new touch screen and they sad to me new components inside.
For now all good. Till when??....
hope it was the last problem
So its a guarantee issue? - bad components inside?
It still works ok, so i wait to send it away..
till now all ok.
Hi,
today my wings suddenly gets a white screen and now every time there is a white screen on my wings..
i tried a lot of things:
- remove battery
- remove/change sim and storage card
- HardSPL and new Rom
- the go into the extended boot mode (power+camara)
- the run the hard reset (power + two soft keys)
but every time the screen is white -.-
the only thing that works is the connection to the pc. there i can discover the files on the phone..
what can i do?
mike
:s
I did have that with my Oxygen (HTC s310) a little year ago.
But this was because I accidentally drop this phone.
In a phone store they told me that the hardware inside the phone was broken :s.
After a little insurance process I bought me a Wings.
Sow, I hope for you that there is an expert on this forum who can tell you that it is a software problem, but I'm afraid that it is a hardware problem.
I should call the HTC costumer service if I where you.
If you did not drop your phone, than you can use the guarantee.
Don't forget to revert your HSPL back up and than downgrade to the original wm6 rom before sending your phone back to the factory for the guarantee.
Good luck with it.
Greets,
Niels
ok, thank you for your post..
do you know where i can find the original rom?
yow,
ftp://84.255.212.134/download/HTC/Nadgradnje/S730/RUU_Wings_HTC_WWE_1.31.405.1R_radio_sign_25.62.30.03_1.58.17.02_Ship.exe
Succes with it.
Did you have restore your HSPL?
what do you mean with restoring your HSPL?
Must I do this before override the phone with the original rom and how that works?
Thank you,
Michael
I'm not an expert with this.
What I thought was that before you send you're phone back to the factory for call on the guarantee, than you have to restore the hard SPL.
It is illegal to update you're phone with own brewed rom's. Before you can update with such illegal rom (e.g. Alcaline's rom) you have to replace the hard-SPL with another one, which is cracked. When you send your phone back to the factory they may be check the Hard SPL, if they do and you have an cracked SPL on your phone than they don't give you the guarantee.
If there is an expert on this forum who knows better, than please correct me.
ok...
i get no guarantee because i won this phone lottery.. so i have no bill...
are there any companies who can repair my phone.. or is this to much expensive?
Ow, that bad news for you.
I don't know in what country you live.
If I where you, I should google with the words: phone rapair shop / HTC repair shop / cellular repair / etc...
Than you can find out where you can bring you're phone or send it to and what it costs.
If you can't find any prices for repairing you're phone, you could always contact a suitable repair center, asking gives no obligations.
Succes with it.
btw, if I can give you a advice,
This is how I did it with my broken HTC S310 (there was also no guarantee for it):
I searched a friend who has got a good ''general liability insurance'' (if I translated that kind of insurance good :s).
I asked him for the favor if I could give him the blame for my broken phone, so that he could give it up to his insurance. We invented a story what was acceptable for the insurance.
If you do this, you have to be sure that it gives no adverse effects for you're friend on his costs for his insurance.
Maybe this could help you.
Succes
i understand... not bad idea
i will think about it.. thanks..
So i have had a diamond for a few months now and it has been awsome, used a couple different roms, mighty being my fav and works the best in my opinion, but just this weekend the screen input do not work. the hard buttons work, and its not physical damage either. i have yet to get it to my comp to try and reflash but has anyone else seen/experienced this?
dont want a $500 paperweight
Could be hardware failure cased by a loose connector. I seem to remember that happening to another poster fairly recently.
i had the same problem, so i sent mine back to orange n got a new one
crap so now i gotta relock it and throw telus stock rom back on and all that garbage, ****!
Eh, i just did a hard-reset and that fixed it. Of course it was annoying losing stuff that i didnt had backed up and having to reinstall all the software and so on, BUT i was so happy it wasnt broken.
how can i do a hard reset without the screen/clearstorage function?
the hardbutton hard resets have never worked for me
Hello gentlemen! I would like to hear your opinion about my problem, hopefully there is a good soul outhere that knows how to help me. A couple nights ago I was at the club where an asrsehole bouncer knocked my phone out of my hands while chasing some crackhead. By the time I picked up my x1 those three guards were gone. My device fell onto carpeted area and battery cover came off taking the battery with it. THe device does not have any visible physical damage, but when I try to turn it on, I only receive one vibration but nothing happens afterwards. Tried everything (soft/hard reset), it is not recognised by any pc, and it wouldn't flash a single LED just that one vibration. I'd send it to SE for repair but I have HardSPL on it and I'm unable to flash it in this condition. The boot loader isn't coming up either.... Please help me find a solution, i searched these forums but haven't met a single similar problem !!!!
Warranty would not cover dropping the phone anyway, so what's the problem ? Send it to the SE, you will just have to pay something. In case they change whole board, it's gonna be a lot.
Hmm, I just took it apart and cleaned it from inside. Noticed there is a little button cell battery next to optical joystick on the front piece.
-Is it similar to CMOS/RTC backup, does it perform the same thing in X1 as if it was a PC?
-What would happen if I temporarily disconnected it from a circuit would the device lose it's HardSPL?
Can anyone please tell me what it does for Xperia?
Ihh, why on earth did you take it apart by yourself?
If there were NO visible damages on the phone the warranty should have kicked in ... even though it says that it doesn't cover falls. If there are no visible marks on the phone, it's really really hard to prove that the device actually fell.
In anyway you should have sent it to SE.
And to answer your question ... i think the small battery is indeed what powers the flash memory when the battery empty or missing. Disconnecting it would probably have the same results as a hard reset...I doubt that the HARD-SPL would be erased.

but yea send it to SE center
