Does HTC Repain Diamond?

Does HTC offer repair for diamond bought 2nd hand? Because my bro bought a diamond on ebay, was in mint condition however he thought a plastic was on the keypad and he tried to pull "what he thought was protective plastic" and now his keypad has a swatch problem and the left top side of his keypad is umm uplifted >.>

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=429155
But I do not know if they will fix it, if it was bought on EBAY!
Cheers

That's dishonest and only serves to drive up prices. Not to mention that if it's used then it's probably past the initial return period.

umm.. excuse me??

Thanks for the totally unhelpful list of results!
It'd probably be easiest getting a replacement battery cover :

Go for expansys with no hesitation: i ordered already one there and i received it in a few days, good package and nice tracking service

[Case] Cheap & cheerful

This arrived today, the 1st part of the Xperia Z waiting game........
£2.90 from Ebay (UK), with screen protector, hard case, slightly rubberized, but not too much to be "sticky" when sliding into pocket. Very thin, will add very little bulk/weight to phone, and will stop the back getting scratched from laying around. Prefer this option to a protector on the back as well. All the cutouts are well cut, and appear to be in the right places. Back, side, and maybe a little corner protection, clips on. Sorry about the quality of pics.:laugh:
Linky thing for anyone interested

I saw that Craftycarper1
I might consider getting it, its only $5~ Australian dollars.
Looks good.
Put it in the thread I started if you want.

Just looking on Expansys at the Casemate Barely there hard case at £14.99...........the one i've got looks exactly the same at a fraction of the cost!

If you look hard enough you'll find the barely there case for £7.50~

Re case, cheap and cheerful
With this case fitted will the phone still fit in the DK26 charging dock or will it make the phone too big to fit.

I don't know yet to be honest, i would be inclined to say no, it is very thin, but i'm not holding my breath that it will.

Ok, this case is now surplus to my requirements, who wants it?, i will post to anyone who wants it.........

What are you going to be using instead?

I've decided against the XZ, i have been deliberating for the last few days about it, and was awaiting the "event" yesterday, and decided to stick with HTC, my last 2 devices have been the Desire and One X, and i like them, so plumped on the One as my next device.
Sorry to Aka91, i'm only able to post in UK.

[Q] No1 S6

Hi
I took the plunge and bought the S4 clone/knock off No1 S6. It arrived in the UK from Hong Kong (day after it was posted! great service from Android-Inside). First impressions are that it is a good phone with a great screen. I wanted to post a reply in Manuxo's thread but as a newbie I'm not allowed. If anyone has any (basic) questions about the phone/spec etc please feel free to post.:laugh:

Hi jw54,
Can you use a normal s4 case on this phone?
Does the battery last long?
Hope you do a review on it.
Thanks

Had this phone a week now but will be trying to get a replacement for two main reasons:
1. Phone constantly freezes and reboots. I've done a factory restore but has made no difference.
2. Phone will not connect to mobile data - tried everything suggested by my network (vodafone UK) but nothing fixes the bug.
If the phone did the basics correctly I would be more than happy.
The next part of the adventure is to see what kind of customer service I get from Android-Inside
In response to your questions - battery lasts OK but obviously due to restrictions I've not used the phone at full throttle. I bought a cheap case from Ebay - the fit is not great but that's probably due to the case. I think better quality S4 accessories would fit fine.

You can ask your phone to be replaced but every phone with this version of android installed (4.2.1) have this issues so i think it is better to wait an software update.
If you ask for a replacement you can wait for a lonnnggg time until you have your phone back.

So is there a custom rom for this phone or at least root instructions? I'm not very familiar with the android environment, so I wouldn't want to brick the phone. Not to mention that its customer support would be pretty much non existant... :/

New stock software available
Hello!
There is an updated firmware here -> www.mychinesephone.com
It will fix every issue related on this thread.

Did you buy from "CHINAPADMALL"

update
No - i bought mine from android-inside.com which is now called anybuying.com????
Just a word of warning - after much tweaking and messing about it's now working reasonably well. However don't expect this to be a genuine alternative to a Galaxy S4 or iPhone, there are too many issues and problems. the best place to look is 'mychinesephone.com' where you will find loads of info. they also have a shop where you can buy the phone if you still want one

Best shop to order it is http://www.chinapadmall.com/no-1-s6.
Android-inside (ex android-sale) or anybuying are scammers, very bad reputation

Wait, they ll answer. Notice that till Oct 5-7 they have holidays. They had sent me the return address of chinapadmall, i don't see any reason they ll not help you. If they don't answer even after holidays in next week, open a dispute in your paypal transaction

How to know before buying new out-the-box S6 if it has Sony or Samsung camera sensor?

Hi,
I'm saying good bye to my trusty old S4 today & buying a brand new S6 (920F) out the box. Did some research on S6 last night & discovered that some models ship with a Sony camera sensor (superior) and some with Samsung camera sensor (inferior).
I read that those manufactured in Korea are more likely to have the Sony sensor as opposed to those made in Vietnam which are more likely to have the Samsung sensor. It should state on the box in which country it was made, right?
Can anyone confirm this or advise otherwise?

Impossible. Case closed.
And you're better off with the new HTC 10 or you could always wait for Nexus 2016.

I'm picking the S6 up for cheap on a contract. Nexus has very little features compared to <insert manufacturer> in general & doesn't get sold in my country. HTC has no support in my country and is terribly over priced too!
I'm happy with an "old" Samsung Galaxy S6 and (for all its shortcomings) I will mod it till it's perfect.
So you say it's impossible to determine beforehand which camera sensor I'll be getting just by looking at the box and seeing where it was manufactured? Life certainly is a box of chocolates! :laugh:
But on the contrary, I always believe "impossible is none" - just ask Nike!

My S6 has the ISOCELL sensor. I do not experience any problems with it. You need not worry about it.

In case you have eye defects or missed it; there's a 'Thank You' button beneath most comments/posts in a thread on XDA for a reason.

Yes but he's not obliged to do it , it's optional. The guy was kind enough and thanked you no need to tell him to press the thanks button , just let it go.
And i know xda very well i don't need your clarifications , let's stop this Off-Topic now.
