So who has experience of HTC warranty repairs in the UK?

As the title says really. Has anyone from the UK had any experience of HTC warranty repairs?
My Desire is booked for collection tomorrow for a few hardware faults to be fixed. Do they usually take the full 15 days that they quote?
I'm currently back to using my old faithful Nokia 6310i. What a great phone that is. It's years old and still works flawlessly. Although I'm not sure I'd go back to it full-time

For me, they've been very good and very quick. Had my Nexus One back in 7 days and my Desire in 8.

Had mine back in 5 working days, 7 in total. The LED flash had stopped working (before the days we could use it as a flashlight).

One of my favourite phones of all time. Actually, I still use an old 3330, 8850, 8910i and Ericsson T28 too. All working and looking in tip top shape.
-----------------------------------
- HTC Desire via XDA App -

They took 25 days with my phone, and I was told they could take up to 28 days with it. Mine wouldn't power on, so I took it to CPW who had it 2 days before they sent it to HTC.

I had a nightmare experience! Involved two Desires, and took 3 months to resolve. Still not 100% sure it's ok.
Got my Desire in March, first batch of Desires. Was fine until end of June when started getting random restart, related to a faulty motherboard. I sent it in via T-Mobile who sent it to a repair centre the next day (signified by online tracking update). On day 8 of no further update I email in to ask what is going on, and they do stuff and send it back on day 10. All they did was a software update and changed a sticker, and problem still existed.
I complained and moaned to T-Mobile, who after a while gave in and gave me another Desire. This one had a worse problem. Screen kept on cutting out even though the rest of the phone was working. Took it on holiday with me and proved to be totally useless because of the issue. Come back and send it in directly to HTC this time hoping to get better service, but it seems like it all goes back to the same repair centre in Milton Keynes.
They send it back 3 weeks later after fixing the receiver instead of the screen. There was nothing wrong with the receiver! I complain big time and ...
Long story short, send it back again gets fixed after the engineer phones me up to get a description of the problem. Also one of the managers phoned me up to give me updates on the phones progress. She actually called me up yesterday to see if the phone was still ok. So far so good. I guess I was unlucky, but it was a nightmare experience, as I love the phone so much (still).
Customer service was good as they always got back to me immediately, but repair centre was rubbish. I feel they owe me compensation for such a crap experience, but so far nothing.

Well so far we have a 50/50 chance of getting decent service then? lol.
I'm going to hate having to hand mine to the courrier tomorrow, but hope that I get a sensible technician who does his job and gets it back to me ASAP. I'm already lost without it as I have it packed up. Can't check twitter/facebook, or emails without having to go to my laptop.
I never realised how much I depended on it.

touch HD returned May, June,Sept and Oct. Each time it was a 'manufacturer repair' and took the full 28 days! Was exchanged twice (so they say) but still developed the same screen problem everytime
Finally got an exchange authorised for a desire , hope its a bit more reliable than the touch

You were patient. lol
This is my second Desire going for repair, first one went faulty 3 days after purchase so I got a full exchange at the shop. Over all I think the Desire is a decent bit of kit. Hopefully yours will be fine or I'd imagine you will go to an iPhone

Sent mine off due to the overheating/reboot loop when using 3G.
Phone was collected by UPS, was away for about 16 days and returned by UPS. The phone had the mainboard changed I presume, as the IMEI was different, chassis and screen/glass layer remained the same along with my screen protector. I got the phone back about a week ago.

Sent mine with battery problems. They took it waited 5 days and phone suppose to be sent but tang and they said they found a fault with receiver and antenna. Another 3 days. Now I have a problem with 3g hanging up I'll wait for desire hd and than send it for repair maybe I'll get a nice replacement if I moan at the same fault several times....

Last thing I sent to HTC was an O2-variant of the Artemis, to HTC UK. It failed out of warranty (I'd bought it on eBay as well) and I rang O2 and got nowhere. I rang HTC and they explained that in theory it should be sent to O2 for service, as it was a rebodied HTC 8300 built especially for O2, but in practice if I sent it in they'd sort it out for me. They took about a week to replace the trackball and mainboard and post it back, and they charged me a very reasonably 60UKP. I was very happy with service.
I don't know if this is still how they operate now they're a bigger, direct-to-consumer company though.

Well, to be brief..
1). First repair for the desire rebooting all the time took nearly 28 days.
2). Second repair has gone just over a week.. still pending, but I.m sure the duration will end up being roughly 28 days.
Personally, I think HTC's repair service is utter b%$$*$£s!
A month is too long for a company of their caliber.

where and how do you send your faulty mobile? because i bought mine from online supplier on tmobile, but it is not locked. so what is the sending process? how do you have your mobiles picked up by courier?
thank you

My desire was turning off when light pressure applied to the back of the phone. I sent it back 3 times after them failing to repair it each time, and finally on the 3rd time they replaced it...
Each time I waited 7-10 days for it to be returned.

Question for those with experience of HTC repair service: do HTC send back your original box? The ticket sheet I got last week recommended that you send your item in the manufacturer's packaging, but I realised after I sent it that maybe they won't send back my box (I'm talking about the white Desire box from the shop). Also, I wasn't happy with sending my receipt so sent a photocopy of it, is this okay? Do HTC return your original receipt if you send it?

Got mine back yesterday after reporting the rebooting issue.
1) They have replaced the motherboard, although the notes don't say what they have done. I know this because the Micro USB connector is cbrand new clean looking and not full of pocket-fluff.
2) Turnaround was about 10 days. I wasn't counting exactly.
3) I did not send it in original packaging, I wrapped it up in wood floor underlay and sent it in a jiffy bag which was then folded over in half. I got it back in a box exactly like the original Desire Box that I bought it in.
4) I had to send the original receipt, as I couldn't be arsed to find a photocopier. I did not get this back.
5) So far so good, device is no longer rebooting but time will tell I suppose.
Overall very happy with HTC's repair service. I've been usign HTC phones for about 8 years now and never had any issues with getting them repaired.

I didn't send a receipt or use my original box. As Budadank says, the phone came back in a similar box to the original retail one but is clearly a repair return type box, rather than a retail one, pic attached.

Now thats one reason why the iPhone wins. Apples customer service is one of the best. If your phone gets broken you will be a few mins in store and if they can't fix it they replace it there. Anywasy back to the subject. I need to send my desire for repair as it has been rebooting so I hope my customer service is ok.

my Desire got wet in my pocket whilst out walking..It was still turned and and working in safe mode..when i turned it off and dried out the phone overnight etc etc it would not work when i switched it back on,All i got was a white boot screen but none of the buttons would work allowing me to scroll through any of the options to boot etc etc.
i purchaed the phone for £300 off ebay,sim free and it was working perfectly up until this point.
I have sent the phone back to HTC and they have given me a bill of repair totalling £236.00. To be honest i think this is a complete ripp off.I could buy another seconhand phone for that much money,but as they know i am in a pickle and have no choice but to accept the price pay it and hope that my phone is ok when i get it back.
I can totally honestly say.." I wish i had paid full whack and bought an Iphone from apple". i am not impressed at all.
I did pay the invoice online 6 days ago and I have still not received my phone back from repair centre or had any updates or correspondence with HTC...very very poor show in my opinion. and a very expensive secondhand phone so far !!

Sent my Desire off on Monday 8th Nov as it was freeezing and crashing and rebooting during sat nav using google and copilot. I am getting it back this monday 1th Nov. (Tomorrow) I have been tracking it via UPS. I noticed on the dispatch note they emailed me that the IMEI number had changed so I rang them and asked why (thought I might be getting a refurb back). They have replaced the Mobo. So like a new phone really I guess.
I bought the phone on Ebay. Unlocked and rooted so I guess I may have to unlock and root it again and then pick my fav custom rom.

My HTC One X

About 1 month ago I sadly broke my Samsung Galaxy SII just after changing my contract from Voda to Three.
I since contacted Three to get a issue with my sim only deal sorted which allowed me to upgrade early. (after the first 3 months) It did however take a few calls to and from the exec office to get this sorted since the calls to the usual call centre are worthless.
Anyway after all that I finally received my early upgrade which was a HTC One X. To be honest I didn't really want this as I was trying to wait for the Galaxy SIII, however I couldn't do without a phone for so long and wasn't aware of the SIII release date back then. After receiving my HTC One X I was REALLY impressed with it, the screen, sound, appearance were all excellent. After using the phone for a few days I noticed the haptic feedback buttons were making a bit too much of noise and not the usual shock vibration it was doing when I first got it. I contacted Three who arranged a doorstep exchange for me. Once the new phone arrived I used the phone for another few days only for more problems to slowly start appearing. The screen itself started to not come on when I was pressing the lock button, the lights were lighting up but the screen was not coming up. I have to constantly keep pressing the lock button over and over to try get it on. The screen itself also just start flickering around and then just blurrs up like the resolution is screwing up so all the icons are on top of eachother and the only way to get it off is by locking it and unlocking it. I have no idea as to why it happened. I have a protective case around it with a screen protector on the screen too. It has never been dropped or treated poorly so I was bemused.
I decided to contact Three again as this was not right. The first person I spoke to told me to take the phone to my local Three store and they will put it in for repair. I decided to contact them back a few hours later to explain I didn't want this and was not happy to get another HTC or that one replaced. This customer service advisor was a lot more helpful and explained I could have another doorstep exchange for another handset since the first 2 HTC's have not functioned as they should. Since I now knew the released date of the SIII I told the advisor I would rather wait for the SIII and he told me that it was fine and would be delivered on the 1st June. All I had to do was box the HTC up and hand it over to the courier on the day my new one arrives.
Thought I would share my problems with the HTC One X along with saying I will NEVER touch another HTC Would add if people are lucky enough to get a working HTC and have no issues then fair play, the phone was nice and had excellent features
Cheers,
Luke

Mate you should contact them back once the phone goes back and say you are not willing to have another HTC as they keep on going. It always differ from each customer service advisor to another with Three, one says one thing and another says different lol

see every ****ty advisor i been speaking to have always stuck by what the other one been saying....do not get me wrong it is a wicked phone but might be to late for me to get an s3...should of just been patient and gone for it few weeks back when i was getting my 2nd replacement...and even now today when i took the phone back to the store for repairs they said i do not have that option unfortunately..so best thing maybe for me is to see if they could replace it with a new one if they come back and say it can not be fixed....then i will go for the s3

Fingers crossed for you then, IF it comes back repaired could you not just sell it on and get a SIII?

could do..but that means putting money as well in which i really can not afford right now...so one x is the next best thing. so two things.
either it comes back brand spanking new.
they offer me an exchange (which means either brand new handset or can choose what phone i want)

Got my one x a month ago today and it's been working perfectly, anything wrong solved by software updates. Love it, greatest phone ever, & I personally think it's better than the s3 (from video impressions). Saying that the two phones are such beasts its all down to personal preference, so I wish you luck with the s3!

It's a real shame about the phone though because when it was working it is up there with the best for sure. If this had not been my 2nd faulty HTC then I would of taken it back but it just doesn't seem like the HTC One X was the one for me
Look forward to getting my S3 though after the S2 was a big fave of mine. Even if they give you the HTC back repaired or just send you a new one are you happy to accept that? If not have you thought about contacting the executive office and speaking to them? I found them to be a greater help when dealing with issues.
Thanks,

Well. Depending on what they say to me. If they say we are sending you the handset back and it is repaired and i know when i check it instore it is build like a brick wall then i will keep it as i still think it is a top phone and i already have like a few cases for it. now if they say we can send you a replacement then i will ask if i can go for a different handset ie the s3. if they say no and it has to be the same phone then i will just get the one x....i really can not say till the day comes.
perfect world would be to offer me a different handset if i was not happy with getting a different one x. if they just say they will replace like for like then i still be a happy guy no matter what but i would prefer the s3

HTC Have Failed us? Last HTC Device

Well, there is a lot of information around this part of XDA about how many faults the HOX has, not just little faults that effect a few users, but major faults that have effected whole batched of HOX's.
Now, all devices are going to have faults and "bad Batchs" but its how your provider deals with those faults, that make the difference.
The way HTC has dealt with the HOX's issue, have made me think that this will be the last HTC device I ever purchase.
Around 2 weeks ago, I was going back and forth with e-mails from HTC. It's like they didn't even read my e-mails, as though the used the "Find" function and just searched keywords in the e-mail, if those keywords came up they copied and pasted something in response.
This isn't good enough in my opinion, but it gets worse. Even after I had said that you clearly are not reading my e-mails, which makes the issue ten times worse, they then replied with the same response as my first email, which confirmed my theory.
Then, after I refused to send it to HTC over the "WiFi" fault, due to the amount of storied I have seen where the devices have come back far-worse than when they were first sent.
THEY THEN AGREED AND SAID LAST YEAR THEY CHANGED THEIR REPAIR CENTRE!! WRONG!! I had now been lied to.
Just looking for others opinions, do you have any "GOOD" storied about HTC and their support?
Anyone had an experience like me that has totally put them off HTC for good?
Should I just stick with my device and live with the WiFi fault, or should I take the plunge and return my device for repair?
THANKS ALL !

send your device for repair and end of story....if you want your phone to be fully functional then send it away and end of the matter....same thing would of happen with your car...if there is a fault you send it in and you are without a car for a few days..same with the phone...do not know what is the issue here really..yeah you are not happy with the way they are responding to you..but get on the phone and call them instead of emails....speak to your network provider and send your phone to them instead of HTC then...I know this will be my last HTC phone but at the end of the day i still love my One X and yes i send my phone for repairs and it took longer than i was told but when i received my phone back i never had any issues...

I think that one of the most important things to have in any service provider is client support.I think that this is strange I was thinking (theoratically) that a company like HTC would have a good support ofor clients,but after what I heared I'm surprused and a little bit disappointed....but if you please cab I know your country for better knowledge,and why you didnt try to make a call to.the support center in your country??! :screwy:

When I have some issue with something, I feel everyone has those issues with that thing, and i start calling that thing as defective, human nature! My phone is not having a single defect, no, HTC won my trust in them with this device

Firstly, it's not true that entire batches were affected by faults, that's a blatant exaggeration. A small fraction of devices with similar serial numbers have similar problems.
Secondly, there appears to be a few cases where sending off for repair didn't work out too well for people, but again, a small fraction.
A small fraction of a small fraction is very small.
If you refuse to have your faulty device repaired, then really, you forfeit you're right to complain about your faulty device.
I don't care which phone you buy next, and I'd be surprised if there is anybody else who does.
If you want sympathy, talk to your girlfriend, mother or another female friend, or possibly a shrink. You won't find much here. If you want help, it's been given to you; send it in for repair.

I for one have the following opinions :
-customer service is a mess. The only few that wan't to help don't have the power to do it.
-i can accept that some procent of an entire production can have problems, but in this case things got out of proportion. Cases like 10 exchanged One X's are confirmed on this forum. I even saw a post where someone said he exchanged 22 devices.
-i for one have the third One X now, and now someone from HTC tells me that is normal to receive a refurbished device. Even if i paid a fully working one, and it's not if i have used the device for a year...it has been faulty from the first day.
-the One X is a dezaster as QA and this attitude twords clients is a bigger dezaster

How are you blaming HTC? You could have sent it, decided to be stubborn, and now you're complaining about the outcome of your own actions.
My HOX works fine. Other than them being slow in the update, just fine.

As expected, this thread is another *****fest.
The guy with the ten devices story is very sketchy. Anyone getting 10 devices in 2 months from one place is either the most unlucky person in the world or doing something to break his device (like the "SQUEEZE IT TILL IT BREAKS" aka the wifi test). Someone getting 22 devices is twice as sketchy.
Here's how it works kids: if you get a faulty phone, take it back. Get a new one. If that is faulty, maybe do the same, or move on to another device. Whining after breaking it attempting a squeeze test or effing it up with a bad flash is your fault.

You maybe right, let's discuss my case then.
First device, yellow spots, screen flex & ripple. I contacted HTC support, they told me that the retailer will exchange my phone on the spot. That wasn't the case. The retailer didn't accepted this so i sent the phone to the repair shop, got the rezolution for a new phone and then got a new phone at the retailer.
The only problem was that the retailer had only faulty devices. I contacted HTC support from there, i got another device that i was told to ship to the repair shop and i will get a new one from them.
I did that, and not only the device i received is faultyer than the first two it is also refurbished.
I contacted HTC on 22 August first regarding this, the only response i got is to resend the phone to be repaired. I can not accept a refurbished device. If someone else can accept it that's their problem.
And from 22 August i am only beeing postponed with escalated, reescalated cases.
Wouldn't you ***** about it ?

HTC Don't care about their customers, why should I pay so much for something, then have to be without it for a month so they can fix it?
I probably will send it off to them, but for the hassle and time spent without the phone, it isn't worth sending it to them.
My phone is very important to my work aswell so again, this isn't just effected me in one way.
I am blaming HTC for not even reading my emails, and sending out phones with faults, I'm not blaming HTC for the fact I won't send it back.
Also, it isn't just one case that have been sent back in much worse conditions, and I never refered to any one case as an example, as these examples of HTC are all over the internet.
AND AS I SAID BEFORE ALL DEVICES ARE BOUND TO HAVE FAULTS, ITS HOW YOU DEAL WITH THE FAULTS!! AND HTC DONT DEAL WITH THEM WELL !

the devices have come back far-worse than when they were first sent

That's exactly what happened to me.
When i first bought my One X i thought i had a faultless device but after a month or two i realized that it had a faulty pixel, so i went ahead and sent it to repair and guess how it came back?
Faults before sending the device:
1) Faulty pixel
2) Screen flex/ripple when applying slight pressure on the edges of the screen
Faults after sending the device:
1) Screen flex/ripple when applying slight pressure on any place on the screen
2) Recent apps button doesn't light up while the others do (Back and Home)
3) The device makes a crackling sound as if the screen didn't fit into the device correctly
4) The wifi fault
So basically they ruined it instead of fixing it. I've sent it back to repair hopefully they'll fix it this time.

Same here - although I had issue at start with the tilt sensor failing, but got it swapped straight away via my carrier (O2 UK), and have had no problems with the new one since.
I had problems with my old Samsung Galaxy S when I first had that (think it was the third one I had that didn't bring a new issue), so there will always be a risk of teething problems with first batches.
All in all, been very happy with it, even more so than my old Galaxy S in that I don't feel the need to root this one to change the Rom to fix failings with the device!

That is exactly my point, which is exactly why I don't want to send HTC my device, as the only fault is the WiFi and to be honest I can live with that, but to send it to your company for a fix, and recieve a worse device back is un-acceptable, and to recieve a "re-furbished phone" is again unacceptable.

That is nothing to do with HTC though, you took it back to your carrier, who sorted to issue for you, so HTC caused your issue, but HTC had no involvement fixing it!

Also I forgot to mention that the repair center refuses to acknowledge the screen flex as a "flaw" and they claim that it's present on all One X's although this video proves otherwise youtube.com/watch?v=MiTUIBOSVTU

the title of your thread is misleading

To be fair its the repair centers contracted out by htc that are letting everyone down. If htc actually repaired the phones themselves then it might be better.
They do need to sort out those repair centers who are returning them unrepaired etc

Mate, you're in the UK and you're with Voda. What's your problem? Is the phone from Voda? If it is I'm pretty sure they'll sort it, their retentions and support are epic. If its not, where's it from? You're covered by your standard 12 month warranty and if you're still not sure you're also protected under the Sale of Goods Act 1979 which superceeds any terms in a manufactures warranty AND lasts an additional FIVE YEARS!!
Really, I expected better from a senior forum member. Throwing your toys out of the pram is no way to set an example to newcomers and personally I'm sick of all these "Blah blah blah HTC are a bunch of hopeless c*nts." threads. If you're that upset, sell the thing, buy a Samsung and f*ck off!

My hox is perfect, though I bought it in May.
I had much more troubles with atrix 4G and desire.
So for now I'll stick with hox and my next phone will be probably htc, though I pay no attention to brand, i just choose the best

Worst Service EVER!!!

Guys,
Was wondering if any of you are suffering from HTC service center as i do.
Would like to let you know about my experience.
I have purchased my device about 6 months in Taiwan as in my country it wasn't available yet.
After a month of use i experienced some issues with the power button & 3G signal, and send the device to Greece service center.
After about 8 weeks that i didn't get my device back, I couldn't keep quite about the fix duration I raised a complaint via HTC site.
Surprisingly they have apologized (more then once) and sent me an "HTC Desire HD" as a compensation & my device was fix in a matter of days
Now things go terribly wrong, i got my device broken!!! and not by me, you could clearly see that in the attempt of pulling the screen out of the cover they have BROKEN it!!!
Yet again i found my self complaining about the "FIX" and the conclusion of the investigation that HTC raised was that i have broken it ???:silly:
Luckily for me i have talk with the local distributor about my case and he have changed my cover for FREE (yes, yes FREE!!!)
After all that saga i have found that the signal issue was not fix and i have send the device again to HTC Greece center.
They have signed on the delivery of the package on the 26/10/2012
UNTIL TODAY (AFTER 8 WEEKS) THEY ONLY SAY THAT THEY ARE WAITING FOR SOME PARTS TO FIX MY DEVICE!!!
I'm MAD for the premium money i had to pay for such a service.
I'm kind of HTC freak and had 8 different devices for about 6 years,I think that it's not becoming to such a large company to have service issues.
Hopefully will get my "ONE X" soon and start to enjoy it
Have you all a nice weekend and Merry Christmas.
Dotan.

Worsrt service in greece
I just got screwed from htc greece today...
I send my phone for repair the first time for screen scratches as i bought the phone and had scratches.
And after a month of lying that they cant see the serial number of the device i got it back with a note saying that they found no problem... a month to tell me they found no problem.
Second time i send it in after 5 months of having the device for the wi fi problem and those bastards at htc greece kept my phone for 40 days and then i tryed to contact them they said that they changed the battery and the motherboard and are waiting a third part NOT TRUE i got the device nack with the repair note saying that they only changed the motherboard.
After almost 2 months i got my device with a diferent problem it looses gsm signal and i have to restart the phone to get signal.
Here is the good part i send it back and they told me they wont accept my waranty because the screen is not in perfect place and i have to pay 180 euro for the repair WTF, the way i see it they are lying to avoid the waranty since they are the ones who opened my phone 3 times.
Screw htc greece they are thiefs trying to avoid my waranty, i even told them ok lets asume that the screen somehow moved why wont you change the damn faulty motherboard you installed, and they answer "sorry since the screen is a bit missplaced we cant accept the waranty".
Htc greece = fraud now i have to press charges for fraud...
Why did i even bother to leave the samsung sceen this was my first and last htc device.
No doubt it was a great device and it still is but htc greece service is the mafia of mobile phones..

sorry to hear that my friend, hope you'll get the device soon!! i have it for 3 weeks now and its amazing, so hope they'll get it fix so you could enjoy it too!

Tell them "A yamissoo roofiyanos"
Sent from...... Who cares any way.

they insist i have to pay...i contacted my lawyer and he will press charges for fraud. Such a same for a so great device to have such a lame servise.
To kedp it short i send in my device for the wi fi issue and they send it back with a faulty motherboard that they installed tha loosed gsm signal completely and i have to restart
And they dont accept my waranty because they say the screen is a bit missplaced and they are the ones who opened my phone 3 times for repairs.
The irony is that i didnt want to root so i wont loose the warranty...

man..if u want premium service..buy an Iphone....and in 5 days u'll recieve one new.

i think that my htc one x got some wifi issues but after reading some of the complaint about the services, i'm kind of afraid to send it for repair now.

Thanks Guys.
I really hope to get my HTC OneX soon.
One thing for sure is that will sell it as soon as possible and will move to a better service oriented company.
"nemer12" i know you are right about the service, but iPhone????
HTC should reorganize there stuff and understand that without service they will be in the same spot as RIM today.
Will keep you posted.

from what i understand its better to solve the wi fi isue your self since you wont void the waranty.
you void the waranty if you remove the motherboard where the waranty sticker is
If you send it in for.service... then you are for a treat, they might even whant to avoid the waranty and try to make you pay like they did to me

Hi Guys,
Another week has passed, and we start week number 9.
Still no word from HTC service center about repair time frame.
I have also send a note to VP of customer care in FB :fingers-crossed: , but didn't get any reply just yet.
Really hope that my phone is not lost forever in there system.
Keep you posted in a week.

if i have to pay for the wifi fix then i will go to law ...because it's not my fault and yes...but i hope germany and there " HTC service" is not so bad like in other countries...

propably you will be fine i dont think service in germany act like in greece, in greece they try to robe you, i bet if i had a single scratch they would say that scratching my phone voids the waranty.

I actually got the best service. My bootloader was relocked, and they replaced my whole screen and fixed the wifi hardware problem in 5 days. Of course they charged for the screen. Also, when I told them from which shop I bought it from, they didnt even ask for a receipt!

In every country you have another office and different people, people don't want to face that but they should think a bit further then only there nose.
A company policy should be legal and straight forward in a contract but a company can't help it if they have some lazy dickheads working for them who are fat up of the daily routine (which I can understand as well in certain circumstance :laugh
or some moaners on a forum who like to kill because they are not satisfied with 'some service' if you know what I mean. :laugh:
I personally had one issue with a phone of HTC (a few years ago) but they were so friendly on the phone when I called them, they asked me some details and picked up and returned the phone fixed in a couple of days.
Ofcourse if you buy a second hand phone on eBay with a limited or no warrentee you won't have the same service by HTC.
The phone I talk about I got as a present from someone who donated it to me from the US as a thanks because of the roms I cooked,
but HTC didn't have a problem at all repairing a US phone in the EU.
The only problem I had with this phone is that I had to pay a lot of import tax even if it was sent as a present.
You get my point? In all corners of the world you have different people and you can't just blame a company for that here on the board.
So do your moaning to the company and try to hit the dickheads, it's so wrong trying to kill a company in general, it sucks what you are doing to my opinion.
Ofcourse everyone has a different story but to my opinion it sucks if you start crying on a board like this, it's wrong and stupid.
I'm using HTC phones for years, I don't say they are perfect as 'every phone has its limits', but you will face that on any phone you think it can be good no matter which manufacturer.
Sorry about my English, it isn't perfect but I only like to make my point, and you can dig up my profile
but I never moaned about a company on the board.
You are not only trying to kill a company but also what used to be a friendly community, that's what I'm trying to explane, think further then only your nose.

Sorry my friend, you totaly missed my point.
I have never tried to "KILL" HTC, there devices are my favorites and i have purchased 6 different models in the passed years.
i have tried to address the service support about my device more then enough for the last 9 weeks !!!
and always i find my self back i the same spot, that is the person in customer care say to me that they understand that it takes too long and they are sorry but they don't are a repair time frame.
And that my friend is not acceptable, i would think that HTC could send me a new device if they can't repair.
But there is no answer from HTC side and it's very disappointing, and i'm trying that someone will wake up and give the right service.
About all your other comments i would rather not address (lets keep it in an adult manner).
Have a nice day.

You don't need to apologise to me.
I didn't miss your point as I do not miss many moaners here on the board, moaners who do miss my point and keep continue coming here, stubborn people who probably never want to understand.
To my opinion you do try to KILL HTC as what else are you trying here, you think you will get a new phone with opening this thread?
Anyway you did made your point as I understand it's useless to answer people like you.
You too, have a nice day.

HTC 10 RMA nightmare

Hi everyone. Posting here to share my experience attempting to get a warranty replacement 10. Want to know if anyone is also having an issue.
At the beginning of july, i noticed that a 1cm horizontal strip across the top portion of my screen (where the volume rocker is) stopped working. I downloaded a digitizer test app to verify. Did an RUU to make sure it wasnt software related. It wasn't. So i reached out to HTC to start the rma process. I was told at the time that that there werent any replacement phones and had to wait 1-2 weeks. I then waited 2 weeks and called back. What pushed me over the edge was this past monday, i received a marketing email from HTC advertising discounted sale prices on the HTC 10. At this point, i had been waiting for 24 days to hear something from HTC about my RMA. The fact that they'd sell me a phone but had no replacements for me put me over the edge. Since that day I've called them every day to see whats happening. Each call i make results in my being passed between three tiers of service reps. None of which tell me any info that has anything to do with the replacment of my device. I am repeatedly promised tracking info and or calls back from representatives from their RMA team. I haven't received any response.
Any advice out there? Similar experience?
Thanks for listening to me vent...

It took nearly two months to have a new (refurb) device back in my hands. My screen randomly died on my device and it took me 3 hours to even set up a ticket with HTC's abysmal "chat support" on their website. I was not satisfied with their support at all. I submitted a ticket on May 7th and didn't receive my new device till early July. Have you filed and received a ticket number? Try HTC Repair Tracking. Your ticket number/serial number should all be listed in your email if you filed. They are always going to try to repair your device and ship it back over sending you a new one. In fact, I'm fairly certain that the device I received is a refurbished device. My GPS doesn't lock ever (tried factory reset, GPS lock fix app, etc) and nothing worked and I noticed the power button is pushed in and mushy. Hey but at least the screen is operational, right?!
Just this morning I decided I'm going to unlock the bootloader and reflash the radio to try to get the GPS to work. I noticed this device came S-OFF directly from HTC's repair center. Great quality assurance. /s Definitely not going to file another RMA just to wait 2 more months.
All I can say is get a loaner phone if you can while you wait for your phone to be fixed, because it'll take months to get something back.

Not sure why they won't just try to replace the screen instead of trying to "find" you a replacement device. I don't have much advice to give though unfortunately.
Greckia, that free s-off is a blessing though. It would cost you 25$ otherwise since you're trying to flash radios.

Man...whats happening with this company? This is my fifth consecutive HTC phone over the course of 7 years. Really havent had an issue. I cant believe the experience that im having qith this replacement. Thanks for the replies, guys. Makes me feel a little better that im not the only one. Ill update this thread with the outcome.

My experience is 100% oposite. I had a strange issue with my battery. Since there's no officiall HTC service in my country, I sent my phone to service center that's certified from HTC. First time they replaced the motherboard. Took a week to receive the phone, worked fine for 2 weeks, same issue accured. Took it back to service again, they replaced the battery. I got my phone back in 3 days. I contacted HTC Croatia in the mean time, they said that they are in contact with service center, and if my issue persists I should go to service and simply give them my ID, and I will get a replacement phone. After a week my issue came back. I contacted HTC again, they told me to go to service center and pick up my replacement phone. I asked if I could get a Carbon grey model (mine was Glacier silver because that was the only option at the time). Two days later, a message from HTC Croatia - go, and pick up your BRAND NEW Carbon grey HTC 10 at the service center.
So, it's really about your local HTC center

I can't help you with the RMA process but I may be able to help with your problem. One day, my HTC 10 had the same problem. A part of my screen (I think it was around 1cm thick) stopped working. I downloaded a digitizer app as well and I found out where my screen wasn't working. I started googling and I found a solution. With a quartz lighter you can make it work again (don't ask me why or how). I didn't have a quartz lighter so I used the igniter from the stove. I tried it a couple of times (and electrocuted myself because the housing of the HTC 10 is metal ), reset my phone and it worked again. Until now my screen works 100%. Just make sure the spark really hits the screen and try it a couple of times. You can also find a couple of videos on youtube about it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VERfODYHX3g
Good luck and let me know if it worked for you!

I literally just went through the exact same issue, end of may, 3/8 wide strip across the volume rockers dead. Long story short, 8 weeks until i could get a new digitizer put in my phone (had to get from taiwan). And i made it a point to contact them every single day and remind them. I asked all the same questions as you, i just harped on them. I used a note 4 and x pure until i got my phone back. i was gonna drop on the 11, but no cdma support had me backing off. I hope you get yours back soon, but dont count on it...harass them, twitter, FB, any other platform you can, make your displeasure known.
Good Luck

Yes. I genuinely love my htc 10. I honestly wouldn't have taken an 11 if they offered me one.

My RMA experience with my wife's HTC 10 was so painful I don't even want to rehash it. I saved all the four or more long chats I had with their support, though, in case I ever feel like going into detail about it. Right now I'm only using my 10 to play music via bluetooth from an SD card while in my car, while remote controlling it from my Pixel.

For my case HTC M7 this was the legacy htc one
My experience is I pass my phone to them due to camera purple tint issue.
And they keep tell me no stock for the lens and drag me for about 45 days and I got back my phone.
Unfortunately, when I received my phone and
I found one of the speaker is not working. I call HTC and their cs request me to send the phone back
and they drag me for another month for that.
So end up I wait for 2.5 months to take back my phone and I found they
make a tiny scratch on my HTC phone screen. It's really sad and hug disappointed to HTC.
and I swear I will never ever get a phone from HTC (I am a super loyal htc senses fans to htc before).
*ps - my case is HTC MALAYSIA

Join the club, been waiting 3 months for a replacement. My device is now out of warranty and the replacement they finally sent me a while ago has a defect I can't ignore so I'm trying to send it back for yet another replacement (hooray for waiting another 3 months while HTC happily takes my money) but the shipping label they provided 3 months ago is no longer working and they promised to send me a new one within 3 days but it's been almost 2 weeks now and I can't send this POS back. Filed dispute 2 months ago with bank and they credited me the full advance replacement fee and it looks like it's there to stay since the bank gave them 2 statement cycles to respond and my credit is still there. I've moved on to Samsung and so far they've been good with me. Since my credit appears to be permanent now, guess I'm keeping the replacement and my original device. Might either sell it or use it as a secondary travel phone. I will no longer purchase HTC products again. I've been with them since the Windows mobile days and they lost a very old and loyal customer. Might I add that I contacted the CEO and she didn't care to reply either. I remember back when Jason Mackenzie was president, he was very responsive and made sure sh1t got fixed if it got to the point where complaints were taken straight to him. Got my M8 fixed that way AND they provided a loaner phone as well. Times have changed.
