I'm considering getting a Wiard. I'll probably endup getting it sim free as either an Imate or a Qtek.
At the moment I have an O2 XDA2s and Ive had to send it back to O2 twice. The XDA repair centre was excellent and repaired and returned my device no problem.
My worry is that I won't get that level of support with Qtek or Imate. So has anyone had to send a device back to these compaines? How was the experience?

I bought a non-working PDA2K off of Ebay and had to send it to Dubai for repair, and I was very happy with the service that I received. The service center did the estimate and contacted me with the prices to repair it and again when it was completed. They also did several warrantee repairs at no charge to me. Total time with shipping; 12 days! I was impressed! I will buy another Imate product as soon as the new models are all released. I am waiting to see how the K-jam works, and also what the Hermes is like.
Later.......
Well thats good to know at least.
Has anyone had any experence sending back a Qtek though? As theyre the company Ill prob go with?
Is it worth paying the extra for an Imate for the better service?

look in the thread called unlock sim all in one or something like that
Hi!
last summer I bought new XDA 3 and 1 month later it fall down and the screen is crashed.
Is there any place, where I can get a spare screen cheap?
Or is anybody there, who has a broken Blueangel, which as an intact screen, which I can buy?
there are a few places on the net, search google or do a search on these blueangel forums, there are a few threads on this subject, BUT BE REALLY CAREFULL, YOU NEED THE RIGHT SCREEN FOR YOUR MOTHERBOARD.
BUY THE WRONG ONE AND YOU HAVE AN EXPENSIVE SCREEN THAT DOES NOT WORK...... BE CAREFUL.
my mate had his insured, after he cracked his screen, they didnt even ask to view the handset first, just asked what make/model and IMEI number. he waited 2 months and claimed, he got a new handset, lost all data, he saved most of it anyway, it was still functional apart from the touch screen, its amazing what actually does work without the screen tho.

Thx for all the help!
I think, I will go to the official service company and have it repaired there. BUt there it costs about 300 Euro
When I smashed mine in, I sent it to SBE Ltd in Kent.
They were very good. I sent it in to them in August of 2005, but then I went and lost my job and could't pay for it to be fixed. (I was told it would cost £100). I paid last week, and it cost £40 in the end. They even shipped it out to me to a new address, and between payment and me recieving it, took 3 days.

Wow. I've only had bad dealings with SBE but that is really cheap considering HTCeurope want £112 for a screen and digitiser!
What flavour blueangel was it? SBE are only agents for Imate IIRC and won't touch other stuff from experience, just as HTCe won't repair Imate or o2 devices :-(

my jasjar lcd managed to crack in my pocket. i do not have slightest clue as to why it might have happened (not coin, not knee side etc)
Touchscreen is ok, but internally the display has cracked and leaked.
What do you guys recommend me to do? I did a lot of search on this forum, but I am rather at desperate situation as solutions are not that clear.
My options, as far as I know, are (I am UK right now):
* S.B.E. Ltd. --> they dont even pickup the phone.
* eXpansys -----> sending to SBE through them.
* PPCTechs ----> how do I send the device through expansys to them? I could not find an orderable item for jasjar service; and international shipment sounds like great burden (shipments, taxes etc).
* eBay ----------> No available item for repairs.
Any other suggestions? comments? thanks...

hey bro..
i broke mine twice, got the second replacement for free...check my forum..ull come to know what i did..for anythin else..pm me.
I've used both PDASmart.com and PPCTechs.com
I've had great luck with both PDASmart.com and PPCTechs.com, but I would start with PDASmart.com (http://pdasmart.com/pdaphonexdaii.htm)
715 Discovery Blvd., Suite 506 ~ Cedar Park, TX 78613
Phone: (512)528-0333 ~ Fax: (512)528-0384 ~ Email: [email protected]
They're both in the U.S., though, which may cause a problem. I also checked PPCTechs (http://www.pocketpctechs.com/main~u...ea~repairs-full+service~action~updateunit.htm) and that costs $249

I've replaced the touch screen (3 times now) on my XDAs, due to scratches and breakage. Although, I repaired it myself which was much faster when you include shipping time. Although, they typically only charge about $20 for installation, so if you have time it probably would be better to have them do it.
I hope it's under warranty, so imate can pay for it. Good luck.
If I-Mate are anything like O2 (UK), the screen is not covered under any kind of warranty. Mine cracked whilst it was in it's original 'sleeve' housing, screen-side out. It was in my pocket and I got in and out of the car which put pressure on it I guess, but I still wouldn't expect the screen to crack.
It went back to O2 service and cost me £185.00.
My fault for not getting insurance. My argument was that O2's online system does not even suggest that you sjhould buy insurance - i was ignorant because this was the first non 'company' mobile I've had for about six years and whenever a company mobile breaks I just call and a new one is delivered in the morning!

www.htceurope.com
They are based in U.K and they make the thing. They are also very good, They update it to the lattest rom and will test the whole phone before it goes out. Even refurb the casing if you require it
Thanks for all the input!!! Greatly appreciated! Now I will see how it goes.
* htc replied that they can only repair Orange and T-Mobile phones (he repeated few times that they wont do any jasjar)...
* First impression from expansys is that they do not have any idea as to 'PPCTechs Jasjar repairs'.
* SBE directly says that it is off the warranty. They can fix it for 174.56 (what is that 56 doing there!?) pounds. Yeah, i little too high.
* I guess PDASmart.com and SBE are the only alternatives left.
I guess, need a little more bad memories to be in same situation as Nishant ... I will see how it goes there.
I will post updates to the issue.
Thanks for all you input guyz...
Another possibility is Topp Solutions for warranty repair
I currently have my Jasjar at Topp Solutions to fix the ROM upgrade problem under warranty. I had to get an "RMA#" for warranty repair from imate tech support, though, before sending it in. Evidently they are the approved warrantly repair facility for imate North America and other regions not covered by a local service centers. It might be worth a call to them.
They can be reached at:

Just a note for the O2 "repair" service.
I`ve broken my Exec LCD two months ago, gave them the device like 7 weeks ago (I was on the holiday) and it still isn`t repaired !!! I don`t want to swear, but only what I can say is: Assholes !
I had to pay 185 pounds BEFORE the repair and after 7 bloody weeks, my device still isn`t in my hands.
What should I do ? I`m totally pissed off now. I really doesn`t like O2 anymore. Just a bunch of fu...s .
