Hi all. I was interested in buying the 7 Plus, so wanted to know if there are any known issues. The reason I ask is because I don't have Nokia officially in my country (only present through an official distributor), so probably won't be able to get it fixed or replaced.

Hello everybody,
I'm looking into buying a Kaiser and I came across this offer. The owner explained this:
the phone is still in working order but just lacks some of the better components that are not installed like the tytn 2 as your propably aware supports video calling and hsdpa access my phone does'nt. Also the bluetooth function does'nt work as it should (i can access other phones but when you come to pair the device with another, that does'nt work) You see i originally bought this phone before they were generally available in the shops,on ebay, which i believe came from a seller who worked in a T-mobile store who had access to this particular phone who then promptly sold to me,and that this phone was a " pre production model " hence it not working as you might expect. about the disc that you asked about i never recieved one with this phone. I hope this answers your questions, but as i say the phone is in working order for all other aspects.I believe a re install of windows mobile 6 should resolve these issues. Thanks for your question hope all this helps please do not hesitate to ask anymore subzero1972

He doesn't have any additional info like ROM/Bootloader/SPL. What do you think guys? Can the issues be repaired with just a rom flash? Or should I look for another Kaiser?
I've had Galaxy Note since February of 2012......Had it replaced three times under warranty through AT&T for same problem. (At least AT&T overnighted the replacement unit got it today)
All the note I had loved to shut off automatically and randomly........
1) Whenever I pickup a call, the phone shuts off (all the time)
2) It reboots by it self inside my pocket
3) It reboots by it self sitting while sitting on my desk
I see a lot of Note user are facing this problem........is there any solution? I've tried couple stuff that was posted on numerous posts.
Also what should I do once my warranty expire? I have 90 days under this refurbish warranty....original phone was till February 2013.... not sure when will it expire.
I've called: AT&T Customer Relation, Customer Service, and Warranty Department as well as Samsung Tech Support. (The only thing I got $25 credit towards my bill)
A Gentleman from Warranty Department told me that he always see this problem.........he sent me a replacement unit immediately and even offered if I wanted to get replaced with Galaxy S3.....unfortunately Note 2 was too new to be replaced......but still I have asked to get Galaxy Note.
Spoke to Customer Relation...what a awful service this guy said "I have Galaxy Note but never have problem" and accusing me for dropping the phone and etc........that the reason I've got $25 credit to my balance. (I could have got more but was too tired to fight for it)
Samsung told me that if I face this issue call Samsung again and they will fix it.. But I will be without a phone for roughly 1 week to 2 week.
What should I do after my warranty expire?
Honestly, i do believe most of us do not having this problem if on ics or gb stock rom.
Do you check with samsung service centre what they did to repaired or solve your problem?
Did samsung change any hardware? Or either update your software only?
If samsung only update your software, it might be hardware problem. In other way, if samsung did change your hardware only, it might related to kernel/rom problem.
If samsung did both. Just go there again and request new handset.
Keep all the repair receipt as record. If samsung refuse to replace new handset when problem still exist. You might need all this record as proof for complaining to consumer body.

Samsung did not repair or replace anything on my Galaxy Note.
ATT replaced my phone with their refurbish one all three times.
I might send it to Samsung next time I have this problem.......
thank you
if its random reboots, its worth trying a different battery
lol there is something you are doing that is wrong. That or the shop you go to has given you the same phone unfixed back.
eliminate if its an app issue by unstakking the app you are installing.
update your phone throught Kies. etc etc etc
The problem with getting a replacement is that it will be a refurb. probably with a load of problems the same as yours that don't show in a quick test. If a load of pple hand phones back wigh this they probably just turn them round.
I may be just cynical...
from the man hiding in your attic....
maybe Note 1 is bad luck? How about a Note 2 subsidized for a little extra? A nexus 4? s3? HTC One X+? LG Optimus G?
i'm sorry about your phone rebooting. best of luck and happy holidays!
Never experienced any sich thing on my note since feb 2012. On stock 4.0.4 lr8

Hi Guys,
Its really frustrating and headache with ZR Bluetooth issues. I have posted the below on Sony official forum regarding the same issue.
I need your valuable advice. Please suggest asap, because Warrantee of my phone is lapsing in 10 Days.
Any Possible solution please:
Shall I try Custom rom?
Shall I give for again replacement?
Shall I downgrade Firmware?
Below is the stuff I posted on Sony Forum. It will give u clear idea.
Code:
I got my Phone's motherboard replaced (God knows with a new one or old) due to the issue of Bluetooth and Wi-Fi wasn't working.
First of all, Sony Authorized Customer Centers in India are handled by so illiterate people. They don't know how to handle customer. I don’t know why they are always in hurry with listening properly to customer.
So when I asked for the issue with Wi-Fi and explained her that this can work if I put pressure under NFC it can work. She wasn't at all interested to listen and told Motherboard will be changed.
After 10 days they gave me a new set, I can clearly recognize it was a new out of the box.
So my Bluetooth worked for 10 mins and again its dead.. After two day it again worked 10 mins and again dead...
Wi-Fi is working fine....
So shall I again ask to replace it/motherboard replace/or fix or Whatever the **bleep** they want to do with it.
I feel its worldwide issue with this phone. How promising it will be that it will work even after going to them?
Sony Listen please:
Is it a s/w, driver, ROM issue?
If its S/W issue> release a statement that you can't solve the issue to your all customers and stop producing ZR units
Is it a H/w issue?
If its H/W issue> How WiFi and FM are working fine? Without a glitch?
Clear your thoughts in official statement.
For my phone warrantee is only 10 days to go and after this voila.
So please suggest shall I go with again one more replacement or the solution they will do. But I'm pretty much sure they don't know WHAT EXACTLY THE ISSUE is. Bunch of losers hired by Sony.
And Sony: Lesson learnt.
I will even go for Nokia 1100(if it comes back: P) instead of going any phone with you. I have been frustrated a lot from your junk of electronic piece.
If your authorized member can comment on this thread, a bit of hope to provide?
Thank You,
Urgent suggestions please.
Thank You,

I don't know whether this may sound new to you or not but Xperia ZR can not be repaired.... It can only be replaced with another Xperia ZR from the service center. If someone claims from the service center that they have changed the mother board of your phone then either they are lying or they haven't don **** to your phone. As this phone can only be opened in special environment. As once opened in normal environment, it loses the most important feature. It won't be waterproof anymore. I researched a lot before buying this phone. I have got my phone replaced already. And even my girl friend has this same phone. She also got it changed because of the same WiFi issue....
My suggestion to you would be, visit the service center away from your place. Do find the service center receipt from the last repairs as they may ask for records. Ask them to simply change it....
Relax bro. As I suspect, they didn't even open your phone and simply said they changed the mother board of your phone. This handset would be replaced with a new one.... Do write about your experience.... So that other people from India also get to know about it.... :good: :good: Wish you luck.... :good: :good: :good: :good:
Was living with the Bluetooth issue, postponing the resetting, which was reputed to solve it. 4 days back, got the wifi issue too. Factory reset did not help. Also noticed that sd card did not mount as mass storage device. Since the issue is almost a month after the 230 upgrade and the. 0.20 mb mystery upgrade, any chance that the issues are related to 230 firmware?
Have not yet triedmass storage mode after gactory reset,
Any body with wifi issues tried downgrading from 230? All my upgrades have been through OTA.

MY Bluetooth dont work since a month... Been working on and off for 6 month...
Wifi had assox reject error for a few month but now its solved. Wifi works great, better reception than my xz1... Dunno wth is wrong with this phone, but bluetooth and wifi issue are unrelated.
Found the right spot to excite Wifi works now. Bluetooth is still dead.
Update -- looking inside the backcover, there is a ridge running inside. Thinking of making a washer like round to maintain the pressure on the g spot. Any ideas?

Bought a Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 9.7 10 days ago and have noticed a sporadic fault which I have discovered other of Samsung tablets can also suffer from.
The screen will go black and there seems no apparent reason for it though I feel that moving the tablet is the main cause. It can happen at anytime and nothing needs to be open so I doubt it is a app.
I said earlier that movement might be the cause yet I have tried t replicate the fault with little success and the screen will usually come back on after a few seconds. I am concerned it may get worse so feel that I should get it replaced or a refund under our UK consumer law.
I found this elsewhere.

Hi,
Where did you buy it from? Samsung have stores in the uk http://www.samsung.com/uk/storelocator/
You can take it to Samsung and let them repair it or depending where you bought it just send it back to the retailer.
I bought from A O and talking to Samsung via Facebook yesterday they did not seem to be particularly interested even though I suggested that there was a Support Centre in Edinburgh but they would need to be able to find the fault in the first place.

If you've got a problem after only 10 days, I would definitely return or exchange it. I currently own 3 Samsung tablets, including an S2 8.0, and have never seen this problem. I did have a problem on a Tab S 10.5 that would cause the screen to freeze and required the cover to be closed and opened or the power button pushed to unfreeze it.

In the UK normally the first years warranty is with the retailer you bought it from. Contact A O and just let them know it is faulty and you want to return it for a replacement or a refund. If they sound like they don't want to help just remind them about the consumer rights act 2015.

Think you are getting the wrong end of the stick here, I have no doubt A O will replace or refund the the tablet as they have excellent customer service whho I have used in the past. I only approached Samsung and posted here in the hope there was a simple fix.
As it happens and I saw this posted elsewhere, I swapped the case I was using to a Smart Cover for Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 from a Folio Case Cover for Galaxy Tab S2 and the issue has seemingly gone away. Unfortunately I cannot remember where I saw this tip posted but it is certainly a strange one.
Sorry about that . Glad you got it sorted :good:
