Cheap EBAY car charger from Bargaincell.com fried the charging circuit/sync/USB connnector on my brand new 8525. The guy tells me he won't do anything about damages, so I'm stuck needing a replacement motherboard. Other than this my device is in perfect condition, so I'm not looking to part it out either.
If you have an operational motherboard, Please email me at:

THANKS!
Have you tried putting the phone in for warranty?
Well, I got the phone 2nd hand off of ebay (No Warranty). Shortly there after, another ebay product killed it. See this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1443395&postcount=22
I would still try and get it replaced through AT&T. I bought my 8525 through eBay and had an issue with it and AT&T still replaced it under the manufactures warranty for me. I've done it numerous times with phones over the years. The number you should call is 1-800-801-1101. It's definitely worth a shot...
Hmmm... I suppose the worst thing they can tell me is "no"...
I'll be damned... I didn't think that would work... A replacement is on the way! Thanks for the idea, TheBrit and ahfunaki!!
No problem, glad to have saved you some time and money...
And the nice thing is too, the phone you'll receive basically is brand new...
Bah... Cingular/ATT sent me a unit with the White screen issue. right out of the box... *sigh* A replacement for the replacement is on the way...

Or charge you for the new phone after they determine the damage wasnt due to a defect. You gotta be careful as they try to find anthing to make your fault. I got a couple boards if interested
LOL Just called them again tonight... Time for the replacement for the replacement for the replacement . The rep tried to talk me into taking a different model in exchange. "Sir, since you've had the trouble with that model, how about a different model instead? A Blackberry 7100, perhaps?" LOL. He didn't seem too surprised that I asked about the Tilt, and it seemed like he checked stock and said that there was none so far. We'll see what happens.
omg.....really>? if i would of known this i wouldnt of opened my phone and voided it....do you guys think that they will accept it?? i got my 8525 from ebay
to ahfunaki:
Can you write all procedure step by step, because I don’t live in USA but I have couple friends in USA with ATT account? I can ask for help but their don’t realize how to do it, because I was send my device couple weeks ago but in ATT local store refuse to help because of ebay purchase. A can call to ATT via skype and organize everything.
Sorry for my poor English.

I live in holland but nowhere in the ad does it state that they ship this product to my country let alone europe
I have a silicon defender on my streak, i have dropt it on the concrete 3 times and i lost it one time but i manage to get it back, and the screen is ok. Do you have a silicon defender? I thinc this is what saved the streak from broken screen.

greetings
I ordered the Developer Edition and recieved it today. Lo and behold, giant piece of dust under the screen! Disappointment with HTC aside, I unfortunately have no choice but to send it back to HTC for repairs since I got it straight from them and not from a carrier (stupid, I know). They said that since it's such a hard phone to repair, they'll probably just send me a new one. Anyone else go through this? For anyone that did, did they repair it or did they send you a new one? Thanks for any help.
Never mind, didn't realize this was the AT&T forum. You can delete this thread.
Hi guys...ok I contacted lg thru email about my phone with burned out pixel on the edge and i got a RA number and shipping label...and they fixed it and its on the way back....my question is...do they repair or just send a different one back...they recieved it yesterday and sent it out today and that seem very fast for fixing it...if they did at all.? reason im asking i'm wondering if i should buy my screen protector on ebay now so i have em by the time it gets here...
I dropped my phone a week ago and the screen cracked along with the touchscreen no longer functioning properly, so I'm planning on sending it in to LG Repair. Would you guys recommend wiping my internal storage before doing so? Not sure if they really care if it's rooted and whatnot since I'm not under warranty anyway. I just figure I'd ask just in case they decide to keep my phone because of the modified software.
You just need a new digitizer assembly. Like $60 on eBay or amazon. Why send it to LG?
Keep your phone due to modified software? Lol
