Hi all.
I live in china mainland. People who sell smuggled phones said that they had got S4 moldel manufactured in june(supposed to be sold in Europe). And this has been proved.
Would you please check your moldle(S3 or S4) and date of production. I wonder whether HTC will continue to produce S4 models for europe market.
The third number of SN is for the year(eg 2 for 2012),the fourth for the month(1 to c maybe), the fifth for the day.
Thanks a lot.
how to indentify the date of production in the phone?

You can check the sn code as above (in setting --- about phone---device information maybe).
or you can input your imei code on the website(219.80.249.25/IMEIQuery/IMEIQuery.aspx?ct=zh-CN) to check the date of production , it's in chinese,but easy to use.
iF it helps!

Why doesn't http://219.80.249.25/ take me to an HTC site? I would be very hesitant to enter IMEI and Serial Number information to a site that is not specifically a part of HTC or behind some sort of login wall.

Might've made a noob mistake entering my SN and IMEI there. Site traces to some office services website in Taiwan. Doesn't look to be affiliated with HTC.

S4...no way I'm entering imea in some random site and I'd urge anyone else to do the same.

Are you sure that the website is safe?

I'm definitely not entering my imei and serial nr. on a site behind some vague ip address. No thanks.

Off context, there are multiple sites where one enters imei number to validate the phone status, are those safe? the site is indeed linked some way to HTC Database else how come it gives corrrect market region and manufacture date? manufacture date could be algorithemic but the targeted market? Am a NOOB hence kindly explain how lethal is sharing imei number online, what can be the circumstances? Aren't we already exhibiting our whereabouts and online status our life online intentionally, else spyed upon (fed agencies)? Our emails are so prone to hack attacks these days, emails linked with contacts, messages, schedules etc! Now how dangerous is sharing imei or serial nuber?
By sharing your IMEI, a stolen device could be given your IMEI which may or may not effect you depending on the country you're in. No idea how likely this is...
I haven't used the site but I did find the following site: http://htc.3rdchannel.com.tw/HTC-IMEIQuery/IMEIQuery.aspx?ct=en-us
It's in English (the original link given can also be changed by altering the zh-CH) and just an IP, I'm still not convinced it's "safe" though.

I dropped by the HTC Europe website today and noticed a link for something called the "eClub". I don't recall seeing this before and so I joined.
What lo, they have a field in the registration form that allows you to register your product by SN and it immediately calls up your phone model by specific name (in my case an unbranded TyTN Hermes). I got to thinking that this looks like the groundwork for a WM6 rollout that allows for getting firm licensing headcounts.
Anyone else think the same or is this eClub old hat?
New firmware version:
HTC Touch Pro ROM code for Hutchison ‘3’ Network - version 1.90.861.7
Can be download in the HTC e-club at http://www.htc.com/au
Too bad there isn't any list towards what had been fixed. Fingers crossed for those have problem with phone rebooting while roaming.
Do you know if there is also a radio rom included? And if so, which version?

I'd like to know this also, i can't check at the minute as im at work, but will do when i get home unless someone beats me to it which they probably will, ahem... Jcepi2005... lol
I don't think this version is new? I got my Touch Pro last Tuesday and it has version 1.90.861.7 on it already.
I tried to login to the HTC eClub Australia website and it asked me to register. During registration it asked for my HW S/N, which I got from the back of my handset. But it doesn't seem to accept the S/N! All I get is "Sorry! Your hardware serial key data is not correct !"
I bought the phone from Handtec UK. Does it mean I would need to register in the UK site only?
Yes, u can register at UK site only.

My rom is 1.90.861.7 out of the box from the 3 network. Should i go on and apply the "update" anyway?
Mine (received it during the last week of October), also has this version on it already.
Mine has this version too.
I got mine well over 2 weeks ago and I have that version...
To the poster who was asking whether they should install it anyway... I'd say no. Not worth the time if the version numbers match up...
will i see any benifit of upgrading to the Aus 3 ROM? I'm using it on 3, but on the stock rom i got when i ordered it from the UK...
People I had the 861.6 rom on my Touch Pro from 3 Aus and upgrading to this 861.7 rom has improved GPS acquisition time dramatically and the device seems to run smoother to me. I was one of the very first in their front door to buy it when it came in a month ago.
If you have .6 I recommend it. If you already have .7 then theres nothing to be gained. Cheers
Anyone willing to give me a copy of the new 3 AU ROM? I bought my TP from Europe so I can't register with HTC AU. Hopefully I will see some improvements even though I have no major issues at the moment. You just can't have enough right?
Bump. Anyone?
Does anyone know how to check a warranty status on a HTC Fuze? By using imei or something...
sorry
this souldn't be possible because HTC doen't exactly know when and where you bought the phone. Depends on the date you bought it. Normally one year if I'm right. Do you have the bill?
warranty on the fuze lasts 1 year after purchase. seeing the fuze has been out for 11 months your phone is under warranty by att. go get it replaced if theres something wrong with it.
Unless it was purchased as a refurb, then it only has 90 days.
In the UK the warranty on my HTC Raphael (xda serra) is 2 years.
So in my case it looks like my network provider has an extended warranty, this could be similar in your case.

No, the at&t one has 1 year warranty if it was new and 90 days if it was bought refurbished.
I think the 2 years might be a law in your country.
i just went thru this situation. actually they can tell from your serial number. if purchased from at&t, it's one year from purchase date. if bought from another vendor, like e-bay, it is 15 months from manufactured date. i had a htc touch dual that i bought off of e-bay, was sold with 12 month warranty, so i thought. when i called htc to do a warranty claim, i was informed that it was not still under warranty. lucky for me the seller took the return. hope that helps.

In European Union warranty for electronic products is two years.
But in some countries warranty might be only for 1 year (legally or not).
i FOUND A LINK FOR CHECKING THE WARRANTY!
HOPE THIS IS GENUINE....

We all know that the Sensation has suffered from its fair share of bugs and glitches (every new device does) but what I didn't know prior to buying this phone is that models sold in HK (Unbranded or Branded) are not supported in the same manner as the rest of the world. I hope this post can prevent someone else form making the same mistake as me.
After reading forums and talking to people, it became clear that devices in HK were either missing software updates entirely, or getting them months later than the rest of Asia (or the world for that matter).
I contacted HTC about this and spoke with Mike at the HK Customer Service center. He confirmed that HTC Hong Kong has a different policy regarding updates and has no plans to EVER release small incremental updates. He even referred to previous handsets (HTC Desire HD models in HK didn't receive the updates that the rest of the world did) saying that the only time exceptions have been made to this policy is when a major OS update 2.1->2.2 has been issued. Apparently unlike other regions, it is standard policy not to release small updates in Hong Kong. He also doubted that the bootloader update (expected in August) would be available for Hong Kong branded phones stating the models sold in HK are treated separately from other global models. Although I tried to get him to give me an explanation for this bizarre policy, the only answer I could get is that most HK customers are happy with the current release.
As it stands now, HK Sensations are stuck on software version number 1.28.708.2 and HTC HK is categorically stating that they will remain here indefinitely.
Lesson learned for me is to never buy an HTC device in HK ever again.
Does anyone know if there is a way to flash a standard Asia rom (region 707) to a HK phone (region 708)?
i have 1.28.720.2...i thought mine was sourced from HK...have any idea what the 720 region is?
I bought mine in HK, it came with the Asian rom on it
I would expect come the unlock you can then put what ever you like on it but not until then.
and no idea where 720 is, hopefully someone else can tell you.
I spoke with HTC UK about my Sensation (bought on EBay) and it seems that 720 is India!

Hi folks
I am new in this world.
Here is the problem. My girl has her samsung I9003, bought in Hong Kong last oct. She is now studying in UK. Recently she mentioned to me that her phone experienced crash regularly with all info lost after reboot. She is completely novice, and is a pure smartphone user. I suspect that her phone may experience firmware upgrade failure via Kies.
Now her phone failed to chat with the PC's USB, as PC cannot detect it.
I got the following info when I asked her about phone info through "About Phone" and *#1234#
PDA:I9003ZHKPD
PHONE: I9003XXKPM
CSC:I9003ZZHKP9
Build Info: Sat Oct 29 16:14:38 KST 2011
Firmware version:2.3.5
Baseband version: I9003XXKPM
Kernel version:2.6.35.7-CL696171 [email protected]#1
Build number GINGERBREAD.ZHKPD
Digging from the internet leads me to think that the three signatures: PDA, PHONE and CSC should bear similar suffix strings, or at least very similar. But in this case, ZHK points to Hong Kong, while XXKP points to Europe.
By the way, what are the significance of those signatures?
I am writing to ask you guy to see if anyone knows whether this is the cause of the phone failure. (If this is a hardware failure, or software failure)
The phone is still under warranty in Hong Kong. So any suggestion as to whether this problem can be fixed remotely in UK, or the phone need to be shipped back to Hong Kong for repair under warranty.
Your help is much appreciated.
