So the other day I was taking a massive **** (it was green and large), and at this time I was also playing with my phone because thats what I always do....you know what i mean but anyways back to the story...so i dropped it in there and was able to recover it without any damage but now it smells like ****. and not like ok **** smell, but like reeally stinky **** smell. Has anyone found a way to fix this issue??
Dude that stinks lol. If you can find it there is a machine called an ozone machine that will get the smell out of anything. I used to work for a company called servpro, im sure there is one close to you they are all over the place, ask them to ozone it for you

Remember when i dropped my Nokia 3310 in the toilet before the poo poo got the chance to land in the dark and scary sea. I picked it up, (amputated my hands), tried to dry the phone as much as i could, and i sent it back hoping i would get a new one. And i did.
The story ain't over yet. I managed to drop the new one in the toilet - again. This time i showed my longest finger to the mighty god, and surrendered. Karma is very real guys.
hihi this is crazy you can drop your phone in your fragrance bottle and will smell nice

Just got off the phone with an HTC rep. Talking about my landscape wifi bug and i mentioned the bootloader. i asked him if in the OTA will it unlock our devices and give us s-off and he said yes it will. Bad news is that they don't have plans in doing an OTA any time soon. Damn HTC. Damn them to hell.
EDIT: Apparently Paul is in direct contact with HTC. Might be coming faster than i and the retarted Rep knows!!
It's just a phone rep, I wouldn't read too much into it.
I'm sure they'll get it rolled out fairly quickly or they risk the modding market heavily favouring the Galaxy S II, and they can't afford that.

Well now that sucks... Just got the phone today, and was hoping that they will do something about it sometime soon....
Oh well, thank god we are not waiting on them only, and that we have some incredible devs in here that are going to kick the bootloaders butt, and do what HTC had to do long time ago.
Id rather see the devs do this, because if its just a given - its not all that much fun. Would love to donate for a job well done. I believe in you guys, you can do it!!
Just hope they aint like motorola and backflip on their promise. It just wouldn't make 'sense'

I had mine for one day then took it out.
You might have to change the title of your post mate. I just asked Paul if he had any insider info as to when HTC will roll out OTA for 1.34 and he replied "Very soon"!
It gives me a lot of hope, Paul is in direct contact with HTC... I believe he knows more than the CS who is based god knows where and has no clue about what's going on.
Awesome news!

No offence, but I hate people like you!!
I was sat on the train the other day opposite someone with a Sony laptop. It had the plastic sheet still over the back of the laptop, peeling off in the corners and full of bubbles. I just wanted to rip it off, then give them a slap!!

Lol me too. Annoys the crap out of me. It doesn't protect the screen in any efficient manner, they always have bubbles after short periods (cause not designed to stay) and often make the screen harder to read (much much clearer without)
If you must have a screen protector (pointless if you ask me, glass is far stronger than plastic screen protectors) buy one designed for the job, cheap skates, what are they? $2?
Naked all the way for me, don't even like cases, just give me a belt clip holster and I'm happy
Lol, sorry for off topic rant but I couldn't help it, glad to see someone feels the same, I'm not crazy, well not alone at least

Very cool. Smart Kid. I am pretty sure my kid would just look at me and cry. She will be three in September. I think I will train her on how to call 911 tonight.
If I went down my three year old daughter would climb up on the couch and go Jimmy Superfly Snuka on me, while my four year old waited in the wings getting his Hulk Hogan leg drop ready. I guess I should not have rough housed with them so much. I can't even lay down on the couch these days without some form of bodily harm inflicted on me from my three hellions. If I was unconscious I can't even imagine what they would do to me.
Yup that's definitely a G2x......smart kid

I remember when I first learned about 911 in Kindergarten, I called when I got home and hung up the phone when they picked up. They sent a Deputy Sheriff to my house and I got in deep **** from my parents...vivid memory.
Good job kid! Thank god the phone didn't reboot or freeze on him............

He Pee'd on it?!?!?! LMAO! Kids are GREAT for ruining phones. my friend's kid broke my original Razr in half by throwing it across their living room. I have since learned to keep my phones (and other fragile stuff) away from children.
I'm not even going to attempt to get this 'freebie' as it looks like there are others that are way more interested/deserving of it than me!

It kept re-****ing-setting and it was pissing me off!! I knew there was a reason I switched from CM7. Those random awesome resets. Its funny too cuz i was taking a dump when I smashed it on the floor. Hey I should have wiped my *** with the $130 I am going to be giving the insurance company instead of the toilet paper I used lol. So when my replacement comes in the mail, I will be using the stock rom!!
Im so angry I want to rip a baby in ****ing half!!
Why did you switch back to it then? Does it really cost that much with insurance? There's some shady looking repair shop in the mall I live near and the guy in there replaced my busted screen for $80
Sent from my LG-P999
I switched back because miui was being a pain! And I guess I forgot CM7 randomly Reset. If I were to replace the digitizer I would order it from eBay for $40 and replace it myself. Its not just the digitizer though. It's also the LCD as well. So if I were to order and replace both the digi and LCD myself, it would come to around $100 smackeroos. Why not just pay the extra $30 and get a brand spanking new G2x? I've thrown it quite a few times.
Insurance is rediculous on this phone! $130 every time I replace it.
Every time? How many times have you replaced it?

I could never throw anything that I spent $200 of my own hard earned money on. I treat this phone like aa newborn baby. There's a couple scuffs and a tiny scratch on the screen which was caused by me being stupid and taking my phone to the beach (yeah SAND was the only thing able to scratch the screen) and I feel terrible about those tiny things. I don't understand how you could just throw it. So baffling to me.

and ive been running the newest baseband and cm7 rc3 since it first dropped and ive yet to have a random restart... even if it did restart im pretty sure im not going to throw a 200 dollar object around until it broke and then spend another 100 or so to fix it and create a 300 dollar glorified stress ball for myself... have some self-control

I'm supprised people are using even cm7 rc3 extra when Bluetooth calling doesn't even work correctly and speakerphone volume is so quiet. All roms except the stock rom 2.3.4 are broken since the March 2012 bb update. Kinda upset that no one has been able to fix this critical dealbreaker problem.

This is the poster child of user error.
I haven't had a random reboot in months. (HFP/Faux) I also haven't thrown my phone ever.
So what I'm getting at is if you f*ck your phone up because of your own shortcomings then I think its time you stop using a smart phone.
Dumb people + Smart phones = Catastrophic Fails.
Good luck tho I hope you don't smash another.

I bought it when it first came out that's probably why. When I ordered the replacement, it came with the old BB. You could call that luck!

I just received my N5 from UPS and I sat down all happy that it had finally arrived. I open up the box and marvel in how nice it looks compared to my old beat up Gal Nex. I take out the sim removal tool and look at the top of a phone... oh hey look, a hole the size of the sim tool. I stick it in and come up against something so I push and it clicks... no bay pops out. Whats this I ask myself? I look at the instruction leaflet and it is on the side. I googled it and it seems others have done this.
How can I verify the top microphone is working as intended and not damaged? I definitely either pushed something down or punctured something.
Balls :crying:
Yea that sucker is probably toast. I'm guessing it should be a fairly cheap and easy fix.
Oh, get some reading glasses.
ROFL
Sorry bro, but that is just too funny.
:laugh::laugh::laugh:
I've never dealt with a push out sim card device and I was so happy to get it I just wanted to get it up and running ASAP. I guess now I have learned to take it east and look at the instructions. I'm reading on the net that lots of others have done this so at least I am not alone in my ignorance...
I am sorry BUT:
:victory::highfive::good::good::good::silly::silly::silly::crying::fingers-crossed: ROFLMFAO
I am done.
Does anyone here have a constructive answer for me?

So should I return it or should it not be a big deal - could this lead to an issue in the future? It would be better, ethically, to keep it, but if it is going to be an issue in the future I'd like to deal with it now rather than later. If nothing is broken I might not even have any grounds to return it.
The hole is damn small and I treat my devices very well.
i just imagine what u felt when u discovered that u did that on the wrong hole... sucks..

If all you tore was the dust filter, just put a TINY TINY little piece of kleenex in the hole, using the tool or paperclip or whatever.
That way no dust will get in.
And no sounds would get to the microphone... Kleenex lol
I wouldn't worry about it. Use the phone and see if you have any issues. If not learn your lesson and move on. If so, return it.
