Questions concerning broken screen and warranty after repair - HTC One X

So i recenty sent in my htc one x, gave it to my provider and they havent told me about the price. So i just wanted to ask how much the price of repairing a screen would cost, they said they will let me know. Is anyone here who can share their experience with me in regards of the cost of broken screen?
As for warranty. That bisnitch told me that should any future damage occur even if it is not my fault like a defect for instance that this will not be done for free, Is that actually. True by law or should i send her to the kitchen? Excuse my use of words toward this. Vile venom. Didnt find her friendly at all. I just cant believe that having accidentaly damaged your screen and getting your device repaired voids all warranty caused by a hardware fault in future. Anyone?
Thanks in advance guys

It's about 150 UK pounds.
In the EU, you would probably still be covered by consumer laws, regardless of "warranty".

So basically just because my phone's display had broken and i got it repaired any defects caused by the hardware and not the user after the phone has been repaired should still be covered by warranty?
The pricing you mention seems to fit what im expecting. Lets see what they say

Forget warranty.
Look at consumer law for your country.

No need to reply to this thread anymore but thanks guys.. ive decided to pay 300 euros and get a nexus 4 instead of wasting 200 to 250 on a stupid screen

Warranty

Hi.
I'm just confused about how does the warranty system work for Xperia phones.
First, where to send it? I didn't find anything from sonyxperia.com. Is it a private company that repairs the phones or is it just a subsidiary of Sony?
Second, does the warranty work without the receipt you got when you purchased the product? I did not get a receipt, because I ordered the poutine from a small online store. I have the confirmation emails they've sent me, but is it enough? I've also heard it's the IMEI code that destined the warranty, true or false?
I'm asking all this because I'm selling my Arc( probably buying Xperia S or GS2) and the buyer wants to know that the warranty does work.
Thank you in advance!

When ever I have sent phones back for repair it Is only 12 mths and yes they can tell from the imei.
For service centre I have phoned then direct by using internet and looking for contact details.
I have not had any issues with service centre journal turn around is 2-3 wks.

Need a repair but I unlocked the bootloader

Hello,
I need a repair for my HTC One X but I've unlocked the bootloader. So my.repair will not be under warranty. Any solutions to fix it? Thnx.

Anybody?

Depends on what the problem is. They may determine it was caused by whatever you did.
My USB port stopped working for charging or anything else and I had an unlocked bootloader with a custom rom and they didn't say anything to me about it.

What kind of repair? I guess if it's hardware related, you should get it repaired for free, although you might need to raise your voice a little.
My WiFi is not working and the case is cracking. So do i have to relock it?
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
Good luck if you are in the UK... I tried sending mine back for repair but was sent straight back to me due to it being relocked. After a few heated conversations and the issue being esculated I was told that "even if the volume button fell off, it would be out of warranty" because "illegal software" had been installed. Absolutely ridiculous I know and I'm sure not even legal, (against statuary rights).. I have to read up get some info and advice before confronting them again...

So, if you unlock it but it is clean, wiped every software you added, there would be no problem?
Nope, that is exactly what I did.. cleaned wiped fresh official stock ruu installed.. intact if I'm not mistaken its not possible to relock without stock Rom cleanly installed..

So if the law says that you lost your guarantee because you installed illegal software and HTC uses that to deny you the guarantee, but they can't prove it, you would win in the court.
That's the thing, I was told that because I used third party software to unlock it (they class HTCdev as third party) that voided the warranty.. when they say "illegal" software it isn't actually illegal in the eyes of the law, just htc call it illegal because HTC will void the warranty...

The minute that you go onto HTCDev, click the agreement and then flash it as per instructions is where you waive your rights to any repair within the warranty period. It seems that sometimes they will still repair it regardless (depending on the actual problem) but I'm not prepared to make that gamble just yet. I had a Desire prior to my One X and regularly flashed rom's on this since almost day 1 of getting as I knew that it could be returned to the state that I bought it in for warranty purposes. I'm not going to attempt to root the One X until I'm close to the end of its warranty period as I'm seeing far too many people having problems with them

Consumer rights are very strong in the UK, HTC are perfectly within their right to deny you warranty, but on top of that, you have statutory rights. Those rights are with the retailer, not HTC.

T-Mobile Warranty and how to not void it

I called T-Mobile asking what voids a warranty and the lady told me that I can do anything I want to my phone and it doesn't void the warranty! As long as it isn't physical or liquid damage.
I think that's pretty cool because from what I've read, doing anything like that to your phone voids your warranty.

Well, she may had not been aware, but rooting your phone and installing custom roms also voids your warranty

yeah, probably.
too good to be true hehe
Custom ROMs.. rooting voids warranty... physical damage, lost, stolen, water damage is all covered
Under warranty.. I believe $130.. since assurion handles those this now.

Warranty covers only things that are defective, like screen dieing or speakers going out things like that...
Damage and water damage cracked screen and things like that are covered ONLY if you pay for insurance .. and its a 130$
Rooting will VOID your warranty but won't affect insurance ..
Also, don't listen to T-Mobile reps... they don't know much and will steer you wrong.

I thought there was something on XDA TV about how these big companies wanna act like rooting voids your warranty but if call them and know what your talking about then they would have to complete a warranty repair. It's a episode from a few months back. Look it up. Good stuff.

This is true. I bricked my phone because of a custom ROM that was not built correctly. I luckily had warranty still on it and they sent me a brand new one FREE OF CHARGE!!
if you get the 8 dollar plan, physical damage and water damage is eh. I think it's an amazing deal, does anyone not agree?
If you have that plan and do mess something up, you could always run it over with your car (or something a little more civil)

Same here. I flashed a custom ROM. Don't know how I bricked it. Can't get into download mode with the three button methods. The phone just started and then get into boot loop right away. Brought it to T-mobile store and play dump a little bit. The guy at the store order my replacement for $20 processing fee. Got my new phone last week. They received my return this Monday. Have not hear from them so I asummed it is okay. I got lucky because my phone will be out of warranty on October 24th.

When you do a warranty on the Black Galaxy S II right now, they give you the option of another Black S II or an HTC One S. It's been that way for a week or two. The reason they are doing that is because of low replacement inventory for the Black S II. If you choose the S II, your replacement will be on back order instead of the usual next day delivery. The HTC One S can be sent next day. The White S II does not have this option. Not sure why they are not offering the White S II as a replacement for the Black S II, except that they may be trying to conserve inventory on it, as it outsold the One S.

I tend to buy all of my phones brand new, sometimes lightly used and unsubsidized. TMo is great since they charge a decent price if you don't want the phone subsidy. I usually stick with the manufacturers warranty.
All I will say is if you brick your phone, make sure you hard brick it if you are going to a T-Mobile and getting it replaced. I hard bricked mine the first time I tried installing a I-9100 rom on my T989 because I thought "Galaxy S2" meant all of them on the CyanogenMod website (yes, my first time flashing a rom). They replaced it since it was under the 20 day complete return (if its under 20 days they will replace it with a BRAND NEW one instead of a refurbished) and it came overnighted (unfortunately I bricked it friday and talked with them so I had to wait til monday because they were closed on weekends. If not under the 20 days they will give you a 20$ processing fee and a refurbished phone that may look new but it certainly isnt.

[SOLVED] Unique issue AFAIK

I have posted this in Q&A twice and no help, so forgive me for wrong section.
My One X has a very weird issue that no matter what I can't find anyone who has it. It has a screen flex on the right side, but if I press on the side or something else does, the phone shuts off. The only way to turn it on after this is to plug it into the wall. HTC wouldn't take it because of the bootloader. I just would like to know if there is anyway possible to fix this. I can't even put a case on the device because doing so cause the phone to turn off in my pocket.

The only thing you could do is to take it apart and search for the problem and then eventually replace the defected part
If you have the AT&T version, you'd be better off in that forum, this is for the Tegra version.
I'm.sure the States has consumer protection law, it's clearly a hardware defect. Put stock ROM and whatever else on it and insist your retailer deal.with the problem.

HTC has international warranty, but not sure it if covers US or not.
I can have a warranty in Turkey for devices which are bought in the EU. Better check with HTC support.

The warranty for all HTC devices is as thekillingroad mentioned is "INTERNATIONAL" and should cover the US as well. I had a problem with mine as well, a different one, but if it wasn't for the warranty provided by the carrier I've bought the device from I would've sent it in service under HTC's warranty.
You just have to contact HTC CS and they'll tell you the procedure you have to follow.
I wasn't satisfied with the quality of the repair my device received as it came back with more defects the than it was sent in with and contacted them by phone and afterwards got a complete replacement.
My advice: don't even hesitate to give them a call.
Best of luck.

Samsung is pathetic

Samsung is so sad.I bricked my s3, accidently put an international rom on it...I know, I feel like an idiot. Anyway, I called their service center, created a ticket and sent it away. They received in 2 days, and then it took about 7 business days since arrival to get any other update, which was today. So I get home today from a horrible work day and notice Samsung is trying to charge $180 over literally a small circling Corning hairline crack. If I had the phone I'd show you guys. Its so small that people dont even notice it at first sight till told. I even notified samsung of this small crack while setting up ticket and they claimed that it was fine. On my online status they didnt even write anything about the actual hardware needed to be replaced, just the lcd. That just leads me even more to belive that samsung will say anything to get out of a warranty repair/replacement. I know their service center had a bad rep but this is pathetic. I just should've sent it to mobile tech for repair. Any of you guys have stories like this? I'd love to hear some.

Yup.
I have basically the same story. Bricked a T999 and sent it to Samsung to see if they might repair it and ended up with a bill for an LCD repair. Told them to send it back and I'm here with another T999 now. I'll just send it to MobileTechVideos to be JTAG repaired.. Samsung was not worth it.

I had to buy another one. The first one was actually off-contract. Now I'm stuck in a contract again.
Well if you bricked your phone it means that there no boot animation whatsoever. Samsung probably thought it was the LCD because they didn't see anything coming up on the screen. It must have been a lazy employed to figure it was bricked.
Yeah I'm pretty sure they would want the screen CRYSTAL Clear when sent for repair when phone doesn't even turn on . sometimes the glass can be broken but not seing unless it's opened, lazy worker probably didn't bother trying to open it or anything to see that wasn't the case.

What I don't understand is if you guys have Tmobile why not just refurb the thing? They give you less crap than Samsung. Heck if you have the insurance they next day ship it it to you for 5$. Unless you don't have insurance or your warranty is gone I'd think of samsung.

I'm sorry but how is it Samsung's fault that you bricked your phone? If it was a factory defect that broke it, fine. Then I would sympathize with you. But you broke it by flashing the wrong rom. Suck it up and buy a new phone. People pulling stunts like this are the reason why most warranty and return policies are so bad now. I'm sure I will get some heat for this, and it's nothing personal against the OP, but if I knowingly made a mistake and bricked my phone I would not scam the manufacturer or warranty company to take a loss for my mistake.

1 they don't know the phone is rooted nor flashed.
2. I think my warranty was voided because of the small crack on my phone that Samsung first said wouldn't have been an issue. I'm not even sure if it was voided for sure.
3. I'm complaining about them being pathetic for voiding a warranty over a hairline crack that couldn't possibly affect the phone's hardware. That they themselves said wouldn't be a problem prior to me sending it in.
4. I wouldn't have even been mad if they simply told me it wouldn't be repaired under warranty at first or atleast when they got the phone. But I was told this 9 days after they got. I could've simply went and got it repaired elsewhere.
I'm not trying to play the victim here. Yes it was my fault I bricked, reponsibilty accepted. When I told Samsung it wouldn't boot, they said they'd fix it. Held my phone for about 2 weeks and is now saying its a no go.
But honestly I'm not even mad about it anymore. I just wanna get my phone fixed and back in my pocket.

Whether they know its rooted or not, you knowingly voided your own warranty when you rooted and installed a custom recovery/rom. And then you tried to scam them by sending it in as defective. You have absolutely nothing to complain about.

Well not in the sense that my phone was bricked and didn't get fixed through Samsung. I'm not mad about that. Samsung said small crack wouldn't be an issue, even put on the report and they said the technician even looked at my phone first day of arrival but yet waited till today to say it. I feel like they should've just told me the first day but hey maybe its a sign, on being more careful and not sending in tech for false warranty repairs. Never done it before, though what the heck. Honestly its whatever now, regardless of anything this while situation was a mistake and you (I) learn from it.

Wow that is horrible. I wish you the best!
I always just send my phones back to the carrier, they are usually a little more friendly since they have a vested interest in making you happy. I have never had to return a phone due to bricking it or anything though, always for screen issues, or hardware button issues. Usually the carrier just fixes it or gives me a refurbished one as a replacement. The best carrier i have ever dealt with when it came to repairs and replacements was Sprint, Verizon was the worse, havent had to do any returns/repairs yet with T Mobile.
J-TAG repair can fix a hard-brick.
They have fast turn-around and they don't care if your phone looks like you ran it over with a car or if you flashed a ROM for HTC EVO on it.
And it's not fraud.
To be honest, the fact that so many people try to de-fraud them makes me feel it's justifiable that they are trying to find any reason not to repair. If people were screwing you over time and time again, wouldn't you ?
They didn't void your warranty over a crack, so stop making things up. If you would have been honest with them in the first place you would never have wasted your time.

Look man I don't know, they told me becuasr of the crack on the bofttom corner of my screen it would no longer be repaired under.warranty. But I told them about this crack before sending it in and they said it would be fine. They didn't even bother putting up any other problem found before receiving payment for the LCD replacement. Anyway I don't care, it doesn't even matter now I honestly just want to get my phone to get it fixed and back in my pocket. They said they just shipped it out today so hopefully I can get it back tomorrow, most likely Monday though.
