I found out that a local phone store would do it for 200$ so i dont know how much HTC will charge me...probably moree

Isn't it like 130 for repairs at HTC, or is that for under warranty ie insurance phones ?

How much T-Mobile charges to get the screen fixed

I have PHP plan wondering how much it cost to fix the screen and are their any cheaper places. I check T-Mobile can't find it and I never used a third party. Has anyone used any other company than T-Mobile? Thank you for your time and all help appreciated

PHP is insurance. They send you a new device, not repair yours. I dont remember the exact pricing, but i think its about $120.
Damn I rather just have the screen repaired oh well. Thanks time call them any idea how long it takes

Edit: After thinking about it, you would need the LCD not the touch. I did not see any but if you look a bit harder then I did you may find them. But let us know what you do.

I talked to one of the reps and they said the only way they could change your color is if your original color is out of stock /:
Idk I know standard insurance with a defective product you have to send in the older model. Idk about going through asurion if I pay $130 they should send a whole new phone.

Power Button Lost Its Springyness.

My power button is hard to press now. It takes two/three presses to function. My phone is new so I called tmobile and they said there is nothing they can do as far as that issue. It isnt a known issue as far as the device. Has anyone noticed this? Or am I crazy lol? I looked online and some people say they were able to get a replacement. I think I will call again tomorrow. Is there a quick fix or should I just prepare to ship it in to tmobile and start the unrooting process.

I would unroot it a they will warranty exchange it

It shouldnt even be an issue, as long as you have insurance. I got mine from an XDA member, had one of the bad screens, and I called the night I got it to swap it out.

Called htc and they said the same thing. Tmobile said they cant do anything and htc as well. For some reason they are saying that my phone was never registered and I cant get a warranty exchange for my device.

That blows. I called them up and they will send me a new one but I'm already on my third one and I got it on Feb 28 so I might just get a different phone

this is my first mytouch 4g. i sorta blame it on myself but the phone is in perfect condition. im pretty much stuck with it until i buy the g2x next week
hey
pm me for one..i can help.( or at least try)
also i know money people wont look at this post but the same thing happened to my nexus one, the phone is perfectly fine but i guess months of pressing it too hard to get it into boot loader etc etc.. depressed the button underneath the powerbutton so nowi have a nexus on my draw that i cant get fixed htc said theys do it for 198 or 98 one of the 2 either way they can suck it im sure its not that hard to fix
so everyone take it easy on your power buttons they mess up every now and then
as for waranty and insurance i dont have any i think the insurance company is a rip off 6 dollars a month to just send u a refurbished phone that will have the same problem if not a new one in a couple of weeks if not months.

[Q] Uh oh Spaghettio

Hey Guys
First of all, Hi! Ive had several devices over the years, so Im not new to XDA, but just to this side of them. So i bought a used HTC One S for Tmobile, Loving it, but then the power button started working intermittently, shades of my nexus one, now it doesn't work at all. I have tried taking off the sim cover and pushing the button directly, but it just won't work. So, I am using a shake to unlock app, but what happens if it dies?
Does anybody have any idea how to fix this? Or is this common with this model?
Regards
Trevor
It's a hardware issue. Warranty exchange it.

I know energy rom has a tweak to let you wake with volume keys.
As far as fixing it, I can't help.
Sent from my HTC VLE_U using xda premium
will they honor the warranty since i bought it used?
If you dont have the receipts they will probably not exchange it =\
The warranty statement says it applies only to the original buyer.
It can be transferred if sold where HTC as consented in writing to the transfer.
(I'm quoting the warranty statement article 1 here, don't ask me what they mean by that)
Sent from my HTC One S using xda premium
Call HTC see what they say. It should be covered under warranty and they don't as if your the original buyer. I'm sure thy will help you out. Normally thy just ask for the serial to see if its still covered. Good luck.

Please update this thread if you try to get it replaced under warranty. I purchased mine used, so I'm curious about the warranty.

I'd be interested in this too. I know that TMO is really helpful, but not so much so with exchanging handsets. What is HTC Customer Service like? Clearly not terrible...
I got a used hd2 a wile back and the touch screen went out on it. All HTC did was ask for the serial # for warranty varification. and they replaced the front screen for free. All I paid was over night shipping to them. They replaced the screen and shipped my hd2 back to me that same day they got it. One day turn around was awsome. Maybe I got lucky but I was still vary impressed with there service.

HTC apparently they don't care about original owner or not...just is it in the warranty period.

So long..

So long fellow sensation lovers... Unfortunately I dropped my phone and shattered the screen.. when I called the insurance company the told me they don't support sensations but gave me a choice of a galaxy s2 or a HTC amaze...
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using xda premium
Don't get the Amaze! I bought it for my girlfriend since it had basically the same hardware as the Sensation, and I loved my Sensation. Completely difficult to do any kind of hacking or flashing, and there is NO development over in their dev threads next to some high school themers.
I guess I can't complain because I haven't/can't contribute to the development. But just a fair warning.

How long will it take to get the insurance replacement s2? How much is it costing you?
How did you shatter the screen? Was the phone dropped from a specific height? :laugh:

robbed =[[[

so yeah i got robbed for my htc one xl. sucks cause i really enjoyed the phone, I have best buy insurance and was thinking that I could probably just buy a broken one or bricked one and take it to them as if it was mine and have them repair it. They dont have the serial on mine just the sku number that they used to see what phone i wanted to protect. Anyone happen to be selling a really broken htc one xl or bricked one. :victory: I will be forever grateful. im stuck using an htc google nexus one which is pretty slow and really small compared to the one xl. =[ any other advice would also be great, not sure on what to do now .

Does your carrier not support tracking your device when lost or stolen?
Also, they may require the imei when returning. You'd need a full on brick. For them not to be able to tell in store.

Next time, install Lookout Security and it will be able to track your phone via GPS or whatever location services are available at hand. You can use the Signal Flare just for kicks and to scare the guy, too.
I am very surprised if other carriers don't offer this service free as I know both rogers and Telus do. Surely bigger American companies must as well.
