Just got a defy - Defy General

Hi guys I just traded my iPhone 3gs for a defy ive been wanting this phone for a while
One thing I noticed though was there are no caps over the ports (usb and headphone jack) is that right?
Thanks

there should be caps there
check on some photos

Certainly that's not right. Both headphone jack and usb port have cover.

Darn, can I buy the caps seperatly?

They say the warranty is up. Even HTC says they can't replace it. Is it impossible to do without the USB port?

you can not root without functioning USB port.
You can find a spare USB port on the net. They aren't that hard to replace. If you can't find a USB port try to find a posts incredible 2.

I ordered a broken inc 2 off of Ebay a while back. I had to replace the headphone jack. I found a tear down video on YouTube. Just takes about 5 mins of searching.

I just popped it open. It was really easy to tear down, now I just need the piece. The connector is fine, but the little mother board the usb port sits on is broke

Just another sprint policy question.

So I've got an old OG evo and a pixel just died on the screen. This wouldn't bother most people, however I can't stand it. So does anyone know whether sprint will replace a phone (especially an eol evo) for one measly dead pixel?

Why not answer it in the thread so everyone knows the answer?

They'd most likely repair it or replace it with another Evo if you specially ask for it. I remember my buddy got his replaced for a screwed up USB port. I was tempted to take mine in since the headphone jack is faulty but it never bothered me. Lol.. I have no damn clue what beats audio sounds like..

Hey Soap, I actually had that issue, and when I brought it in they replaced it free of charge. The issue was a run of faulty parts where they had one hardware revision's motherboard paired up with another revision's headphone Jack. So if you're looking for a new evo I'd go for it.

Like I said, doesn't bother me much. I have the greatest set of software on this thing. Not so sure I want to trade up. I might do it eventually.

Usb cable

Any one having problem with the supplied usb cable by samsung?
Mine is a bit loose, meaning I cant use my phone while charging it because of the usb cable connected to the phone os not that snug fit.
Any workaround to fix this issue. Opinions needed.
Thanks

Me too, many people are reporting this also.. You have to send yours back to Samsung and they'll send you a new one they're aware of this issue.. But who knows if you'll even get a good one.. Some people were shaving the top down I'll try and find a link to that thread, I'm Gunna be trying it also..

Does that cable help with quicker charging? and does it lead to over heating?

Charges just like the original. Same speed i'd say. Only down side is the head is on the bigger size, i had to trim a little to fit most cases i have. If u have case with large port then u shouldn't have any issues.

Help charging issue!!?

I have a T-Mobile note 3 and I just bought it 2 days ago and I've noticed that the phone stops charging when I move it even slightly, and the only way to make it start charging again is to bend the cable so it is straight, again from the end, also it(the cable) seems loose and look's As if it hasn't gone in fully into the charging port, because It wiggles a lot. Please help!!?

Sounds like a hardware issue. I would take it back to the store and get it replaced.

Could it be an issue with the cable, because I charged it using a USB 2.0 charger and it worked perfectly?

Solution, just buy a new usb cable, could not be easier than that!
You can use either a usb 3.0 cable which came with
the phone or a usb 2.0 cable, it works fine either way.
Good luck!
OK thanks guys, it turns out the clip on The plug was broken, which is why it wasnt firm when I plugged it in, but I just bought a new one and that solved the problem.
