As title says I need replacement ringer for my 4g slide. Does anyone have any idea where to buy one? I checked ebay and some other pages and found nothing.
Tried RMA?

Can only find earpiece. You should give t-mobile/htc a call and ask at how much they will repair it for you

I bought an Invisibleshield screen protector at BestBuy and had an employee in the cell phone area install it for me. He sprayed the phone directly with the solution and now it appears that the solution has seeped in through the sides. It doesn't affect the screen but it's noticeable under the proximity sensor and earpiece. It's been 4 days since installation and it's still not gone and it's bothering the hell out of me. Any suggestions on how to get rid of it aside from taking the phone apart?

I would take it back in there and complain about it and tell them you want a new one.
Can I do that? I didn't buy the phone from BestBuy, I bought it new from eBay.

I thought you bought from Best Buy, that i'm not sure, I mean it's worth a shot I guess, raise hell if they give you problems, ask to talk to their manager?

Yes you can. If they damage something during installation they must replace it. Raise hell with a manager if you have to. The phone is not in the same condition you brought it in as.

Hello guys, my inspire's audio jack is nearly shot. The music is crackly and it stops and skips. I know its not my beats or the cable. I was wondering if i unrooted my inspire and walked into an at&t service center if they would replace it with a refurb. I bought it the month it came out and i have no insurance on it. Any thoughts?

I don't think most stores carry the refurbs. You would have to call ATT support for that. But as long as the phone does not look physically abused on the outside I would say you stand a good chance getting it exchanged. What have you got to lose?

No, they will not take it w/modified firmware.

So if I unroot it i will be fine? If so can someone point me to an unrooting guide?
You have to install an unrooted stock ROM and return the phone to s-on. Advanced Ace Hack Kit will do what you want.

Nice thanks.
The past three times I've had phones replaced, I've called ATT. They send you a replacement phone in 2-3 days and you have 2 weeks to send back your old one. I've never been to a service center, because I don't want to give them an opportunity to reject my phone on the spot (in case of scratches or scuffs, etc).

I just bought an HTC Panache and it came with the bad eMMC and bad screen. WOW the display is noticeably different from my MyTouch4G even when looking straight on.
Anyway, since it is still covered under HTC manu warranty, would I be able to send it in with the request of the new eMMC and the Sony display?
Who should I contact? I sent an e-mail to HTC and they're directing me to some third-party called PCD or something.
Has it worked for you? Should I just call them directly and see if I can talk them into something?

i bought my glacier off craigslist. In rooting with the gfree method, i ended up with a brick that blinks a yellow light (download mode). Tmobile was unable to help me, but i called htc and they took care of it.
I had to pay shipping to them, and i got back the same phone fixed about 2 weeks late i think.
not sure how easy it will be when you have a phone that works but has flaws, my situation was such that the phone was clearly broken, so there was no judgment call by the rep.
i called the htc customer service number here:

I do believe that there was a bad batch of emmc chips, but I don't think that all of that batch was bad. I think that only a portion of them are doomed to fail.

My phone decided it wanted to go for a swim on the 4th and is dead. Tried bag of rice to no avail. I have the insurance and was given the choice of the HTC Sensation or Galaxy S2. Went with the Galaxy.
Anyway, I just want to say thanks to everyone on this forum for the awesome ROM work and support over the last year or so. It's too bad we can't get the display drivers API from LG so we can get some ICS with working video love, but oh well.
Again, just want to thank everybody. I will now be hanging in the Galaxy S2 forums until my full discount comes into effect in February and I can get the S3.

Enjoy the GS2...

It's $130, just called. My phone has been shutting off and going crazy when off the charger. Selected GS2 as well. Have to send the G2X back within 15 days.
How did you get the option to decide which one you wanted?

I called in and asked them what the replacement was. They said that the G2x is discontinued and not available as a replacement, so they gave me the option to choose between the SG2 and the HTC Sensation. When I said the SG2, they even gave me the option to choose between Black or White. I chose black.

Similar situation here. They apologized that the g2x wasn't available and offered me a Sensation. I played it off as I hadn't heard of that phone before and asked if she'd mind waiting a minute while I looked at the phone online. She said sure and that I should check out the GS2 as well, that was another alternative. I said I was familiar with that and chose it, opted for white
Well as I stated in other post I was needing a replacement so I called in. But they didn't offer me a different phone. They shipped out the same one. Its cool with me but weird how "its not available" but I got one

Yea and he more then likely had to pay. That's just how T-Mobile does. Anything aside from hardware defaults you have to pay about 100-130 not sure exact price

If you have insurance call them up tell them what happened and they will either offer you a different phone like gs2 or the same for that 100ish. I needed a new phone but they didn't offer me the gs2 they just sent me the same. But then again it was a free exchange so who knows

I had to pay too, said the phone was acting up, battery dropping quickly, had to pull battery constantly. I also told them that I stooped at my TMobile store and they suggested I call them.
I've had to pay in the past too, fire a charging port issue. I believe you always have to pay, no matter what happened. I received a refurbished phone, perfect condition.

Then you need to call HTC and find out who you need to talk to to find out if your serial number is still covered by the manufacturer's warranty. If not, it's probably something you should have done BEFORE you made the purchase. I could be wrong but it sounds like someone passed a hardware problem off on an unsuspecting buyer. BUT....it MAY still be covered and they didn't know either.
Isn't it worth a try?
Where can I find there number and can u get me it please?

This is their online "Warranty Statement". But it does conflict with the results some others have had doing a return. It COULD be that they returned it thru their carrier.
