Develop Bugs

[Q] defy buying help

Hi all,
i am thinking of selling my galaxy ace (1month old) and buying a defy. Though the problem is there is no service center of motorola in my whole state. I am from India. What i want to ask is this-
does this phone has any bugs or shortcomings which may lead me to visit a service center. Samsing galaxy ace has a sod bug.
I really cannot take the risk of buying this phone if it has any bugs which might appear later.
Scanned the forum. Seems like phone can have earpiece issues. Can any Indian user confirm that we are not hving this issue.
About mb525 or mb526, Is there any way to check this on the shop?
Thanks.

seems like mb526 hasn't released yet but there are leaked roms of 526 which are compatible with red lense defy.

If before buying, you can check that the phone has red lens, then there shouldn't be a problem for the earpiece. (most red lens donot have earpiece problems) you can also check by entering the IMEI # on the box, here: moto110.com check if your phone is manufacuted in late jan -feb or later, 2011, then there shouldn't be a problem.
apart from doing something that may brick you phone, there is not a high possibility that may lead you to a service center. Make sure you keep all the ports closed when not using them. ( USB and Headphone slots)
Regarding MB526, there is no official news from moto about that, but there are leaked versions of Gingerbread (2.3.3 & 2.3.4) which have device name set to MB526 by default. This may be a hint to a new Defy+ or Defy2. Just a hint.
In a shop in india, you probably wouldn't be getting defy as MB526. But who knows, maybe the shop is selling defys with 2.3.4 already flashed. Only way to check is by switching it on, then going to system settings to find that out. It would say:
Model number: MB526
Android version: 2.3.4

dude defy is the best handset..i surveyed alot b4 buying this beautiful handset..defy is worth it..dint have any probs till now..and dude motorola has service centre in every city..
MB526 is not yet out in the market...only leaked android 2.3.4 is out which was for mb526(which also runs on mb525).
no ear piece problem till now...everything runs smoothly
btw ACE sucks to be frank...even u will think like me once u use defy with custom ROM

dude moto doesn't even have a single showroom in UP & Uttarakhand, let alone a service center. This was the main reason of me buying ace.
I will be buying defy online. And they have a june model. So I think I am sold. Thanks a lot guys.

moto doesnt have exclusive showroom anywhere in india i guess..but as far as i know they have service centre in all cities..at my place there r 2 service centres..
same case with sony ericsson..they dont have exclusive showroom..coz they cant keep a whole shop just to showcase few mobiles..
i understand that sellers dont keep moto phones after they backed out of indian market..they say no one buys moto..
even i bought online as models were not available at my place..i had to go to bangalore just to see defy with my naked eyes ..to feel it in my hands..but online price was cheaper..so i bought it

hey dude, how to check for a service center in my city?
no one buys moto because there are no ads. you know i can have near 10 exceptional ads keeping in mind water resistant features of defy.

The biggest complaint I see on the non-us moto forum for Defy Indian users is the phones they're buying for (or from) their carrier are all 2.1.

[Q] Purchasing a new Phone
I'm also planning to buy Motorola Defy. But am not sure whether it would be a good decision or not. I live in India (presently at Kolkata, but would be shifting to Bangalore in a couple of months).
I have heard that the support of Moto over here is not impressive & I may land into trouble if there are some issues with the phone after the expiry of warranty period (coz many believe that most of the hardware inside moto aren't discrete & thus the whole board needs to be replaced). If this is true, the cost for repairing can be very high!
My second concern is the OS support. I don't know whats MB526 is actually. Do the new phones come with MB526 & no earphone problem?
What are the prerequisites, that I must check before buying this phone?

please guys this is moto and thats samsung !!
how u can compare ??
motorola = benz - bmw -
samsung = kia motor - lifan - ...

hei!how to check my moto defy manufracture date!
i used my imei and all of the code got behind the phone and i duno which one is msn number!
the site require msn number to check the manufracture date!help pls
edit: just checked with msn code on box
it is manufracture on january 2011
suppose not be problem for earpiece rite @@

Finally after a couple of months of deliberation i got my new Defy!
First check was camera lens colour and it was red! A check of the MSN number revealed that mine is manufactured on March 2011
After that i was pretty certain i got the BAYER camera but wanted to check that too so i ran adb and i got:
Code:
07-09 21:24:17.163 1233 1233 D LibCommonCamera: CameraCommon: Detected BAYER device
Gingerbread! Here i come!

Hi football fan, where did you buy from? And @ what price?

Hi football fan..me also looking forward to buy Defy after months of research
Well did u buy it from online..?'m looking it to buy from letsbuy or flipkart..!

MB526 is a new defy model which will be released soon..
present defy model number is MB525.
OS support will always be there for defy officially or unofficially
As far as i know earphone problem is not an issue here.. very few people got this problem.
before buying a defy just make sure that it has red lens..coz all the new defy are red lens and will be red lens only.so support will only be fore red lens in future.
All the best

Thanks for the info dude..
Seems to be go with MB525 is a better option i think..
Well MB526 got 1Ghz OMAP "3620" and 1700mAh battery these are the hardware differences i think..

not a big difference dude...CM7 in mb525 will deliver btr performance and hardly u may get 2 hrs extra on battery with 1700mAh

How will it deliver better performance? Does this oc the cpu to 1GHZ (the same as Gingerbread)?

thanx for the reply .
n wich color u might suggest.?
i posted here cos i wantd to frm the ppl who hav already uused it ..

great thought ....
i have 2 white ones and have no problems with them what so ever.
But i really think it`s down to your own taste
Some say the gray ones are having less issues but that`s not my experience

White HTC One X, excellent phone, best there is at the moment.
The Gloss plastic trim around the edge looks better in white, looks a bit out of place on the black model.
