Hi!
this is a story about the warranty on the t-mobile mda pro in austria.
I had a problem with the device since i bought it: The headphone-jack did not work. As I don't really need it, i didn't care about it for a long time.
Last monday I decided to bring it to the service center "kapsch". They repair mda devices for t-mobile in austria.
-> today a guy from kapsch phoned me and told me, that they could NOT repair the device on warranty, because I have the Jasjar WWE Rom installed.
Can they really do that?
1.) the Jasjar rom fits the device anyway! so why should I loose warranty, if i use it?!
2.) the rom hasn't anything to do with the headphone jack.
I really don't understand, why they try to charge me the repair costs.
can somebody explain that to me? thats so stupid!
I will tell you how the story goes on. I'll have to discuss the case again with the technicians.
greets
Flash back your device with the MDA pro original rom then take it back to the service repair, lets wish they didn't mark your device..

Hi, my display on mda3 is broken. Anybody knows where can i purchease it? Thanks

I sent my busted XDA2 to the O2 repair shop, they wanted £104 to fix the broken USB/charging port (i'm assuming they must have to replace the whole board for that much dosh) and £150 to repair the screen. .. needless to say I bought an XDA2s instead. In fact, you can get the regular XDA2 on upgrade for £99 so that may be a cheaper option for you.

Anyone up for purchasing it? I'd do it, but I'm unable to, as I live in the USA. I'll even reimburse someone if they purchase it and provide me with proof that they did.
Who knows? This might actually work. Or does anyone have any feedback regarding it?
I would try it, but I am not in UK
I am very confident that this is just the unlock all tool stolen from here. Or even worse, it could be NOTHING since O2 don't lock their devices and it only mentions O2 stuff...
Gut feeling: It's a con.
That's very much possible.. but at the same time, there is a slight chance that the program is legit. The seller has another auction up for the software, if anyone is willing to try it. If you do try it, let us know if it works!

Read the guy's feedback. He's already sold this software and it doesn't work. His response to the feedback was pretty feeble. AVOID!
unlock
hi to all, I have bought the software from this guy ,but it doesn’t work ,he must of got it from here , first he send me the unlocking v1.6 witch I believe is for mda compact (magician & others), then after I emailed him that is useless he send me back 2 different unlocking version again is version 1.3 and version 2.2 witch again I believe is from this website, he told me if it doesn’t work he refund me after I live him positive feedback!!.
note; I have tried this unlocking in my spv m5000 from orange and no luck, I think is just trying to make few quid from eBay and see if any of this unlocking tools work for anyone!!
Good Day,
I bought a jasjar 15 days ago from Dubai. When i tried to upgrade jasjar's rom from imate's site, although everything went ok, jasjar stuck on splash screen. I tried everthing but no way. As there is no official service for jasjar in Turkey and there is no way to send the unit to Dubai and receive back (customs reasons) only thing i could do was to change the mainboard. And I bought a used mainboard. Now it is working but i have the old mainboard in hand. (Used only for 2 days.) Is there anyone interested in buying this main board?
are you selling the entire device?

Hello,
i've got a problem with my t-mobile dash/mail and it isn't even here know
At first I've to say that i'm a schoolboy from germany so my english isn't perfect yet
Yesterday i bought an mda mail (the german version of the dash) for 80€ on ebay. It's brand new, so I'm quiete happy und lucky.
Thats the good thing. The bad is: It's nelocked on T-mobile. The main reason for which i bought the mda mail is that i wan't to go on the internet and use msn pocket. In Germany, t-mobile doesn't offer any good conditions but e-plus does. That's why I want to use an eplus Simcard.
Can you guys give me any clues to unlock my mda mail? I already read some topics on this board but i've already found some threads but i think most of the tipps aren't usefull for my german mda mail.
Of course i would prefer a free solution but i don't think that that is realistic. I just don't want to pay 100€ to t-mobile
So pleaseee help me

how about i trade you my unlocked t-mobile dash
i really like the look of the full black housing of the t-mobile mda.
can you give me a link ot the phone you purchased on ebay. i cant find them anywhere.
the only threads ive seen about unlocking are around here. i belive they should be useful even if its an german mda mail but hey my offer is till up for a trade
Well, normaly i would trade my mda mail on you but you life in america and i in germany. We would have to pay taxes and so on.
But this is how you can get an total black mda:
1) visit ebay.de
2) type in mda mail
3) switch to "smartphones" at the left side
4) Check the offers and write some friendly email. Please also mention why yout want to buy the mda (because many people from other countries betray on german ebay)
Wait a few weaks.
back to topic:
So there is no free solution? Can anybody calculate the key (except for tmobile)? How much is the unlock usually?
generally its about 30-50USD...so whatever that comes out to be in Germany Im not sure, but it IS worth the money to get it done, it will cost alot of course to get it up and running, but it increases the re-sell value of the phone tremendously, so when you upgrade to a new phone in a couple o' years, you can sell it as "unlocked" and get anywhere from 20-30% more for it just because of that!
'a couple of years' good joke I use to change my phones all two months
Do i get an unlockcode or do i have to unlock my phone with a software?
most of the times you just get a code, but in VERY rare occasions they will give you a program...which if that is the case, you MUST upload it to the forum here....share the love my man!!! No but seriously, if it does come with a program, you really should hold onto it and upload it somehwere, it would make MANY phone users VERY happy!
all right... Does someone on this board sells codes? I think 50$ are a lot for a few numbers
yup, you need to PM a member called "jwocky2001" he sells unlock codes for 25USD a piece ussually
sure the name is "jwockey2001"? Can't find him with the search engine...

thanks for the info on searching for the phone.
the main reason why i want that one is that it is full black. seems like a dumb reason but i like the way it looks.
maybe ill just look there for a black housing.
gah, sorry, its-jockyw2001...had it backwards heh
I have an "international" H815 that seems to reboot at random times. A few times simply answering a phone call it caused a reboot. The IMEI says its from Taiwan. It is less that a year old. I am in the US. Do I send it to LG Taiwan for warranty repairs? If yes, has anyone done it? Their web site is in Chinese which I do not speak.
Thanks
Lol same pinch
Lol i am facing same issue if u get it fixed by any means please let me know so i can fix mine too!!:good:

Sorting this out but from Canada. I tried customer care, was met with "Phone was not sold here so there is no warranty." Attempting to use social media to get something else done.
I'll update if they reply.
Hey Guys, I have been facing this boot loop since 3rd Jan. I inquired with the service station and they will either change the chipset board of your Phone or give you a new one. My advise is to go for a new one with S/N starting with 510 or above as this problem is with all the LG G4 with S/N starting with 505-509. Am in Oman now and gonna claim my warranty in Dubai.
Where did you buy the phone? What store? In Germany, I can ask the retailer to send the phone in for repairs. The retailer then sends it to the manufacturer/licensed repair workshop. That's because of German warranty law, to which a seller is bound. You might wanna check US law regarding warranty.
Quick update:
I got a response from LG Taiwan
"Dear customer:

I called the company listed, luckily they had someone who spoke English. Bad news is they said the cost to send the phone in, replace the motherboard and send it back to Canada would be more than the cost to replace the phone. I asked about it being covered under factory warranty and mentioned the e-mail above.. the tech asked me to speak to LG.
Send LG another e-mail with the details of the conversation with the repair center, waiting to hear back from that. Given this experience I think I'm going to give LG Canada another go. In the meantime this G4 is sitting dead on my desk.
This is insane.
Did you have any luck in getting it repaired?
Short answer is no. LG asked me to send the phone to a friend in Taiwan so the friend can assist in the repair.. I can't say I have any friends in Taiwan so I let it go. Bought a Samsung S6 that gave me issues as well then got a handed down iPhone.
