All you really need to do is ask them not to update your handset, it works for me.

just tell them to not upgrade your system

Yeah...I will be sure to tell them....I just unrooted and have s on....I drive to the mall w a stiff neck only to have the Sprint store tell me they have run out of ink in every printer and won't do anything cause they can't print out a liability form....****ers....

I actually went through the unroot process and rerooted....it helped a little...so I will still need to bring it in...but I didn't wanna keep it unrooted....before I was half considering just saying "yeah, it's rooted but root didn't cashed the issue I'm having and seeing if they are cool...

I just took mine in for screen issues and left the HTC unlock in place as well as still rooted and they replaced my screen, no questions asked. They had to have known it was rooted because they installed some multitouch testing software that showed up in my app drawer right by the superuser app. Told me if it didn't fix it to bring it back and they would replace the phone.

After playing around some more I found that the tiamat kernel helps w this issue....if anyone needs it, let me know...hope it helps someone else....

You'd think an HTC update would be available at their site first.

Just got off the phone with Sprint...they said that in order for the Evo 3D to run right, I have to feed it iPhone 4's.

Do you have to go to a repair store to get the update or do you.think any store can do it..August 1st seems like a long time to wait esp if its already done
Or could you do it from Sprint website?
(Not that I'm going to do it, just sayin)
...nice upgrade from hero
Put $20 in my PayPal ill give you a link to the update
as soon as its released

I thought so.
I think it is a crap story.
This is fraud.

Couldn't you have said the person on Craigslist must have done something to it since you bricked it so soon after receiving it? That's what I would have said.

2 days ago I traded my HTC Vivid for a Galaxy Note with a dude on Craigslist (dumb move on his part) & within less than 24 hours of having it, I managed to hard brick it by flashing an incompatible kernel. Completely my fault.
LUCKILY, I took the phone into an AT&T store and played the dumb card. After about 45 minutes of going back & forth with the store manager and a warranty agent on the phone, they decided to send me a brand new replacement at no charge. Should be here Monday.
I feel like I really lucked out seeing as to how I traded with someone on Craigslist.. I really thought I was screwed!

Don't understand. Are you bragging about making a totally avoidable mistake or how you lied to AT&T reps? Either way I don't see too much to shout about.

Edit: this is exactly why manufacturers lock the bootloader. People like you ruin development. IMHO!

I couldn't agree more
If people are flashing things they should at least be responsible for messing up.
And this also could be a good reason why apple is closed source

Oh gee, I hope AT&T doesn't see that Cory Peterson from Texarkana, Arkansas has defrauded them.

Jittery or flickering screen - hard or software issue?

Hello, I have a European RAZR Maxx with ICS, not rooted and not anything. A factory reset was done right after the OTA update a few weeks ago. Yesterday, as I was reading some news, the screen started to jitter, flickering horizontally about 5 mm. The phone was still functional, screen was responsive but it was jittery in a very upsetting way. I did a soft reset and it did not help, then I switched it off for an hour and the problem went away. It has not come back since but I am very worried. Should I send it to service? Or was it just some soft issue? I hadn't installed any app immediately before it started to happen. I appreciate anyone's opinion. Thanks!

my xt908 did this today, is yours rooted? I'm trying to figure out why also. iI think it may happen when blue tooth is on
It's not rooted. In the meantime, I think I realized it only does that when I use flipboard. I un installed it and the problem went away.

If you uninstall a program and things work ok, then its not your phone. Relax. =p
Sometimes the atualization of software bring bugs and then we tend to think its our phone. =/

This is most likely due to glitches in hardware acceleration. It is so common that some apps have an option to disable use of hardware acceleration.
Out of curiosity, what is the exact version of your firmware? MIUI, which is based on an early ICS release, displays this behavior quite frequently, whereas it doesn't show up on the final ICS release of stock firmware.
That's good to know, thanks!

Issues with S5

Hi There,
My wife just got her S5 and right from the get go she started noticing issues. She then restarted it and it worked fine for a small length of time. From what I can gather it has a yellow screen and when you try and do anything it kicks it back to a black screen.So essentially you can't do anything with it. I've played around with lot's of phones but never had something quite like this on a brand new phone that just arrived.
Here are a couple pictures that she sent me. If any of you can give any insight it's greatly appreciated. I've been scowering the web as I'm a work right now and I can't turn up anything.

Maybe by entering the recovery and factory resetting it. That's the only thing I will try before I go to Tmobile and complain furiously!

I appreciate the suggestion. I'll give it a try, it can't really hurt anything. I worry it's something in the display/hardware itself of which it's my understanding Tmobile has them backordered at this point.
Thank you,
~Chris
Definitely return/exchange that when you can. I'd even go by just to tell them so they don't pull any "hey why didn't you come in earlier?" stuff on ya. But that's definitely a hardware issue that shouldn't be happening.

No problem. Doesn't matter if it's back ordered or not, new shipments come every week. You payed for a new phone and that's what you should get. For future reference make sure you also get the handset protection if you don't have it.
