Assuming you're from Europe, according to EU law:
"Article 5
Time limits
1. The seller shall be held liable under Article 3 where the lack of conformity becomes apparent within two years as from delivery of the goods. If, under national legislation, the rights laid down in Article 3(2) are subject to a limitation period, that period shall not expire within a period of two years from the time of delivery."
Check if your country adopted this. It should, cause afaik it's pretty farking old...

I think so, but you'll have to show them that you know the law and all, and you're not likely to get fooled, then i guess they'll behave
Btw: delivery by the way it's meant there is just the moment when you get your hands on the good, it has nothing to do with shipping afaik.
Cool so I will go to phones4u tomorrow tell them I need a repair and show them these if they say no and can you give me a link to.it so I can print it off

I know Paul at Modaco have made some progress in rooting the desire.
But is there any other dev or team that are working on cracking the desire?
Without root this section of xda feel a bit empty...
good question me thinks.

Please look up what rooting means before asking this as this seems like another 'root' post. There are already many of these types of posts around why post new?
I am waiting for rooting so i can install different non eu keyboards

I know it's selfish, but living under the Heathrow flightpath, I'm kind of enjoying it. I can hear the birds!
Same here - it's idyllic bliss in 'ampstead without a bloody plane every 2 minutes. This is what it must have been like in the 1930s! Selfish or not, long may it continue (though the prospect of nose to tail flights through the night as they deal with the backlog isn't so attractive).

Nicely done.
Hi guys im new to this site so sorry if this is posted in the wrong section. Anyway I found a HTC desire at the V festival and have since spent the last couple of days trying to get it too work but have failed as the phone is blacklisted. So I have two questions for you guys number one is there Anyway to un-blacklist this handset?
And my other question is kinda random, if I cannot un-blacklisted this handset will it work in Ireland on a non UK carrier like meteor?
Thanks in advance
Mark.
What you want to do is illegal.
What you should have done is try to return to its rightful owner. However, you've clearly chosen not to do that and so are guilty of theft.
You'll get no help here.

No its not like that. I got hold of the owner and said id send it too him in the post but he said he has already claimed on insurance for it so he has a new Desire already. I then got his address and shipped him his sim card (for the numbers) and his SD card as I don't need it. He said I could keep the phone but according to T-Mobile once you claim on insurance the other handset will stay blacklisted so its useless now. So I did try to get it back to the owner but he says he has no need for it.
It's still illegal. The phone doesn't belong to you, and if this second story is true, it belongs to the insurance company now.
I fully understand that it's not my phone but it seems a waste as all it could be used for is a media player and web browser. So what would you suggest I do with the phone?
Can't comment what I would do with the phone as it would too be illegal.
Ask elsewhere. I doubt the rules on this forum will allow you to get an answer here.
use it as a doorstop!

If he's already claimed on insurance, he's not the phones owner any more - the insurance company is! Trying to sell it could still get you charged with theft.

No only that but the original owner could get done for insurance fraud for letting you keep it ...:..

Sure is. I flash a Tom everyday you know.
Someone should make a dictionary with words that aren't in the standard one.
I broke my tilt2. I do have incurance, so what phone will they give me as a replacement?
Also how can I relock my SPL? I can still use the phone, just the speakers/mic are broken.
Ok so I flashed back to stock...
The spash goes to AT&T for a sec and then says "Touch pro 2''
Well? anyone know what phone I will get?

Rumor is that att will be coming out with physical keyboard android phones in the 'near' future. No idea how near. You can either try to wait it out by transferring the sim card to an old or temporary phone or you can buy one of the current options. There are two or three recent threads discussing replacements already here.

The store will tell you that the insurance stuff is all done online or over the phone. They use one-day shipping to send it. You might be able to negotiate a different device if you do it over the phone.

Sold separately. Picked up my M8 and Verizon didn't even have it in stock, and didn't give me a price.

$49.99 + tax on the HTC website. Currently "Out of Stock" though.
The Dot View case is not on sale yet. Nobody is selling it.

Yes sir (ATT). Like yours, it's already in route. Gonna get to the shop early tomorrow with anticipation... And fingers crossed that we can unlock it at HTC Dev. Last two ATT HTC phones have been unlockable...Hopefully its just the Verizon that is locked down.

Glad to hear that! Service rep told me it would ship between the 28th and 4th of next month, i got a UPS tracking number about an hour later, its currently on its way i cant wait!!. Yea im hoping its not blocked from htcdev. but if it is, i dont think we need to worry much as it looks like alot of devs are buying the device and there is also s-off work being done as well. Firewater may possibly work but it has a different SoC so firewater will have to be adjusted for that. So I dont think we will be locked down very long if htcdev dont work

I agree that contacting HTC directly is probably the best way to go. Go to their website and use the 'chat' function. I asked about an M9 screen repair about six months ago and they quoted $150, so I'm guessing it would be only a little bit more for the 10.

Good call! Spoke to them via chat.
If anyone's interested, the cost they quoted was £115 excluding shipping and 'diagnostic tools', whatever that is, and takes approx 5 days from receipt of the phone.
Not surprised about the cost, but the turnaround is disappointing.

I will personnally change it myself.. Already changed (A9, m7 ans sansung GS7) just by order the screen ?.. I'm now experimented on screen repair ?
I will soon change my cover back from grey carbon to gold.. ?
