Motorola really suck!!!

Sorry if the title offended motorola lover(my apologies)
but really..
motorola really sucks.:/.
Firstly downgrading our hardware(overclocking the same processor in other phones)
then serving us with a locked boot loader..(with an indefinably long waiting time for unlocking)
then at the time of repairing they take 2 weeks to replace a motherboard and then return a completely different defy to customer(broken from side,various cracks and scratches,even the front housing was not the same as the scratches that were on my old defy were not even there now) ..
what came to my surprise was that their customer support replaced my whole motherboard while they had to replace just camera unit...
and when i said there is some mishap(that they might have given me the wrong piece) the engineer started blaming me saying you didnt tell us of any scratch and all..
and he started saying that motorola has a policy that any phone damaged during the repairing is to be bourne by customer and i was like
..
but i asked him to give me that in writing but he started hesitating and some how got convinced to send it to corporate office for repair
now you tell me is it fair to give me a badly damaged phone after repairing only because i chose motorola over samsung or nokia..
sorry for any grammatical error is any as i am feeling sleepy...

the b/l will never be unlocked for defy by moto ^^
if it were we'd hold on to our aging ph's for a couple more years & wouldn't go out and buy say a razr with official unlocked b/l or the like...
modders mod & play with their ph's voiding warranty... if I break it I fix it
ph repair services can be dodgy at the best of times
it's not just moto services that are fubar...

Its not the same with nokia(i love their service)..
once i had a broken earphone on e71 and much to my surprise they replaced it within 10 mins or so..
and while same with motorola took one week to get repaired..
if i break it i am responsible(i know) but the phone broke when i flashed original rom.
So its motorola's software who broke it
not am waiting for my mobile to send to chennai for replacement..

Well, the service center experience was good. Had one stuck pixel on the screen, they replaced the TFT panel. Got the phone back in 8 days without any damage.
One thing is for sure, this is my first and last Motorola!!!

They are just evil but their phones are damn good. They give one the finest hardware. I get it they overclock the same processor and use it. It is actually beneficial. Even if you buy a phone with less processing speed, you can still overclock it. Its not just MOTO does this each and every android manufacturer do this. Most of the time they use the same processor on many phones. I agree service centers in INDIA are really bad. More over you don't have any idea about Samsung. Nokia sucks with their stupid firmware and the stylish N800 with a stupid Windows Phone OS.
Surprisingly, this my 8th phone from Motorola and I'm pretty satisfied..
Had a few experience with servicing and it was satisfactory..I broke my BT headset once n it was replaced with a brand new one..
Locked BL is a pain sometimes but at the same time, it means there's a little chance to brick the phone..
Doesn't matter from where I send it, what matters is written above
The only good thing about Defy is its ruggedness..
Without it, certainly i will immediately sell my phone to another one, which have an option to unlock its bootloader.
Just look at Sony, they write an OFFICIAL step by step to unlock devices bootloader.
Of course it will broke the warranty, but at least customer have their right to do whatever they want to their devices. To unleash its power and capabilities on proper custom rom.
Sorry Motorola, this is my last Motorola device. Unless Motorola change their policy about what customer could do on their devices.

I love Motorola phone.....
It had excellent hardware and excellent quality...
But service center are like hell.....
I gave my phone for 1and half months now.. Still I didn't got it back...
This is one thing why we started feeling to go for Nokia......

They can issue a doa upto 14 days after you had bought the phone. I got a One x and the same day i noticed that the screen was loose. So i took it to the the HTC service center and showed the issue to them and they immediately issued a DOA. Returned the DOA and the faulty phone back to the shop from where i bought the phone and i got a new phone.
Just check the Edges of the screen for gap between the screen and the body. Even if the replacement is faulty you can still return it..

Been using the new phone for the past 3 days and the new phone does not have any issues.
Serial no is HT24 series.
I doubt whether you'll be able to exchange for another phone. I think it depends on your shop/dealer. Generally they replace with the same phone only.

Flickering screen

Greetings
This problem started only today. The screen literally flickers like a malfunctioning tube-light. I have dropped my Xperia ZL at the service center as they want to "observe" it. I would like nothing short of a replacement unit from Sony. It's been 30 days since I purchased the product. I also had a faulty charger when I first purchased the phone. Btw, I am from India and the phone model number is C6502.
My main intention is to get a replacement unit as I don't want my phone sent to the repair center as early as one month after purchase.
Any inputs regarding this will be greatly appreciated.
Regards

as long as u replace it within the replacement period its good ..either 15-30 days i guess .
otherwise they will only repair it .however if it is found to be a phone fault like maybe a lose wire they may not charge u
you should have straight away said replace it .
service centres here in india have a knack to be annoying and not replace it

Guess what!
I had got a faulty charger out of the box. I got it exchanged for a new one with the dealer. After 30 days, the display is screwed, flickering like a spoiled tube light.
The staff at the service center is absolutely rude and abusive and cannot communicate properly in English and the customers are made to wait for unnecessarily long durations to get a reply/answer. The problem as detected by the service center is with the phone's motherboard.
Sony India is not willing to replace my unit with a new one and is not willing to refund the amount either. They have told me that they will be replacing the motherboard only and nothing more. I don't trust these idiots anymore. What I need is a replacement unit or a complete refund.
Any suggestions?

Yes, for free. I am looking for a complete device replacement. I do not want them to replace my motherboard but the entire phone itself. Motherboard failing in a month - completely unacceptable. I just cannot imagine my new phone falling into the hands of those disgusting animals at the service center.
I just saw my xperia zl flckering or something like that. i was listening to music and lock the phone, and when I turn the screen on the lockscreen it was flickering and the song was stoped, i had to unlock it for it to stop.... mmm

Agreed I as well have come to this conclusion. Once unlocking my phones code it randomly flickers for a couple of minutes then once I let the brightness settle in (usually change to auto-brightness) I tend to not notice it. Definitely a software type of bug in .423

Help! Little Ripple/Screen Flex Different Issue

Need some help! Now as its been just more than a year using my htc one x. I called customer service centre here in New Delhi, India... that my one x's screen from some places on left (top to bottom) corner side if pressed little hard gives pixel liquid flowing called the ripple/screen flex issue, and on the right side its still perfectly hard n fine. I told them I feel the gum is just loose or something, but they are dumb for money telling me whole screen will be replaced for 7,500 Inr (123.480 USD), When there's nothing wrong with it in normal usage at all! Something less needs to be done I guess ?!?!
Should I continue this way?! As its still fine no fluid when using normally or playing games .
Suggestions, Help from everywhere are welcome please! I Love Xda!
Or Is there a way I can get repairs done from somewhere else in New Delhi(For my indian friends) ?! But should be more good at this than disgusting customer service centres here in India .
Regards .

ok. but they are saying it is a water damage, and they found water inside my phone. so doing something like that will be good? And also i encountered a rain once one day before the damage.

The handset may have water-detector substance inside, which will change its colour once the substance get in touch with any liquid. So, once the water detector is tripped, you'll loose your warranty even if the damage isn't caused by water.
Now if you want to repair it paying the required money, and the company refuses to do it, you can definitely lodge a complain because the handset is within support period.
it is better to buy other good device than mediatek... even i m frustrated with lenovo and mediatek... this is last phone with mediatek and now its goodbuy to mediatek ..
