I couldn't fix the freeze after standby mode problem and the screen allignment so I decided to send it back to htc europe repair centre. Did anyone of you send it back for repair or replacement to htc europe and if yes how many days did it take to receive the device again? And my second question is: did they fix the problems of your device? Take this thread like a poll thing for angry and disappointed tytn users
We have MANY threads of disappointed users about HTC service.
If you are one of these, as I told to someone else, say it LOUD on Internet, in any group, in any on line news, the only thing that a big company understand is the voice of SHAREHOLDERS, we are simply some poor STAKEHOLDERS, but if we make a LOUD noise the may be SHAREHOLDERS will hear us and this ridicolous service will change.
If you are not familiar with stock and marketing language you can search the STAKEHOLDER history...
I bought my TYTN on Internet, I,ve no problem to send it everywere in Europe, using UPS but I want it swapped, even REPAIRED, but in few days, and with a first class customer service.
we have a service here ... (chose the worst county for services, we are below!)
HTC... can you hear our stakes?
@takis999 I sent my TyTN for repair to HTC-UK (in milton keynes England) and the contract i signed and sent with the handset states:
1. ESTIMATED TURNOVER PERIOD
We estimate that we will normally be able to complete orders and return the units to most mainland addresses in the UK within 5 working days from receipt of the unit. Where the repair requires parts to be specially ordered or delivery to remote areas of the UK, or to other countries, this may take longer. One of our Customer Service representatives will contact you in such cases. HTC EU will endeavour to complete all orders within 5 working days from clearance of payment or warranty authorisation.

Bearing in mind that applies to the UK im not sure how other countries fair with that but seems they do endeavour to fix my handset and send it back to me within a 5 working day period which is great! A guy on another forum (Masseur on Esato.com) also sent his for repair and it was sent back within 5 day...and hes not from the UK!!!! The guy i spoke to at the service centre was VERY VERY helpfull and he informed me that HTC knew about the SA problem and will fix ANY TyTNs (NOT orange,voda or tmobile handsets though...they get sorted out by voda/orange etc...because thats who the contract is with). If the TyTN is less than 14 days old then a replacment will be done, otherwise a repair but im cool with that...standard stuff really
If you wish to wait i can tell you how long my repair took from sending (yesterday 12/10/06) to arrival back here (unknown??)??
@sergiopi Can you add to your profile your Network and Country as that would help???
profile added, thanks for suggesting.... I am in Italy, in Rome (every roads brings to..., except HTC's ), I've seen were you are from.. so you know STAKEHOLDERS meaning
Also MY contact from HTC was very helpfull, but she wasn't involved in repair. She gaves only a 199 number (special and expensive numbers), then from this number I had a second number, in Rome, just to know that they collect and send the phones to the first number, but they are not HTC, they don't know even that is a company involved in phone business, more or les 15-20 days, no courtesy service.
INDECENTE in italian
Some service is available in Russia.
It is more oriented for cases with "device does not boot", "damaged bootloader", "stuck at bootloader", "flash with wrong image file", etc.
However, it does not cover parts replacement.
In terms of timing, it takes 1-2 work days for fixing a problem, additionally DHL, EMS or what shipping carrier would you prefer, to organise shipping between your country and Russia.
You need to describe your situation first, before shipping device, by mail or by phone, to make sure you will not send a device which was crashed or droped in a ocean.
We have to admit also that local HTC service centers are not satisfactory, and sometimes even refuse to accept xda, although on warranty.

Keep in mind that by contracts HTC is not allowed to perform direct service/repair on HTC products sold via the big service providers. Another reason for us to welcome HTC´s decision to push its own brand and open sales and service centres everywhere they have a market. XDA is a O2 brand, and at least in Germany O2 replaces faulty HTC phones within a few days.
HTC is directly in the market, but NOT in the SERVICE market .
They just sell directly, not SUPPORT directly. they want more revenues , not be prepared to have CUSTOMERS!
Well done HTC! I understand isn't in the DNA of the company, but Steve, Bill, are you sure you want this?
It is very clear, for sure it is not co-business to keep service centers for HTC. But to have number of local contracts with service companies. To authorize their service centers, train staff, provide some equipment and technology enabling them to perform reasonable "customer care". What I was saying, I guess, is that it is not the case in Russia. Athorised HTC service centers in Moscow is a joke, they have no clue how to run business properly.
Additionally, HTC does not give them a lot of "knowledge". They know how to perform basic tests, no more. As the result, no surprise, there are un-authorised service centers, and they do pretty good. They have good equipment and what is more important knowledge. Otherwise, I think, they would not survive.
I am saying this because went thru the repair cycle and saw how it works (meaning did not work). Globally, pretty sure, it depends on country and location. On a reality HTC does not care much about customers. They jumped on a market, but not ready for all aspects, especially service. And finally, to be honest, non of such companies are interested to spend much money to provide good customer service, it is very little profit of it.
So, we have to take care about ourselves.

I felt others should know about this to help make informed decision about HTC repairs. I sometimes ago noticed that the air vent was breaking off from my Shift device, I called and sent it for repairs but was told that part was not under warranty, told to check online for the repairs bill...it was £240 to change a lousy vent mesh. I called to tell them I am not fixing again and heard nothing until I checked my repair bill online again and guess what? it was now half of that price, I promptly paid and after 2 weeks got my device back. Happy ending? no!
I first notice that there was a small chip on the screen, also, after picking up my Shift from any table, the grip rubbers at the base comes off and get stuck to the table. I promptly called HTC and this was booked in for repairs again, and this was the beginning of the nightmares.
The status has been 'Hold for materials for about a month' the last time I called, I told them that even if the materials were coming from the moon, they should have been in UK by now, they have deprived of using this device for total of about 2 months and I'm paying mobile broadband monthly charges.
Just sharing this out of frustration with HTC and sadly this is not the first time this is happening to me from HTC. Are there similar experience, or advice. They must know that they cannot continue to hold devices for as long as they want, our responses may make them realise what their repair line is like and make necessary amends...

May be this is offtop, but: In Russia, ther's a law, called "Protection of consumers". This law tells, that SC cannot hold any device longer, than 45 days. If thay cannot repair your device at this time, they sould pay you 1% of device's price for everye day of overholding, or give you the brandnew device. I think any contry have such a law.
may be it worth trying to write complain (email) to the mother company in Hong Kong ..
2 weeks ago to the day, I accidentally dropped my HD2. Nothing major.. I was actually sitting down when it happened, and the phone bumped my ankle then gently bumped the floor.. no big deal right? (It has a hard shell protector). Well, then as the phone flipped over, it bumped the edge of a table leg and damn! Four hairline cracks on the digitizer. And no more functionality though the LCD was fine and the phone was working but locked with no way to unlock it.
So, I weigh out the cost of repair vs. replacing it all together. Ultimately, it was cheaper to repair the screen.
Here is what blew my mind! Keep in mind that I am in Canada, I purchased the phone (T-Mobile Branded) on the 'net, it's unlocked, tweaked, and therefore there is no warranty.
So, on 04/01/2011, I contact HTC USA. To my surprise I actually get an American on the phone not some call center in a third world country. Wow! The person totally has their act together and in less than 10 minutes, I have a quote for the repair. Wow again! The rep explained everything in detail along with the mandatory disclaimers and while they were finishing up that, I'm receiving an email with all the necessary details and an RMA and Case number and shipping instructions. Wow yet again!
04/02/2011, I send the phone to the repair center in Texas. By 04/05/2011 at 10:50pm the phone has arrived at the repair center. The next morning, I get a call from HTC confirming the damage (which I knew), and they simply want a yes or no to go ahead with the repairs or not. By the afternoon, I have a FedEx tracking number, the phone is fixed and it's on its way back to me in Canada. Wow one more time!
04/11/2011 FedEx is at my door with my phone and HTC picked up the return shipping. Well.. you guessed it! Wow!
I am reconfiguring the phone back to the way I had it prior to sending it as I write this. It had been hard reset to factory spec which if fine and to be expected since they likely run various diag after repair.
So, for $120.00 + $25.00 Shipping, my phone is working again!
There's a case study for keeping our companies and their support centers on North American soil. There are dozens of companies I could list that should be taking notes. 8)
Nice to see a positive post like this. glad you got you HD2 repaired and are now back to modding it.
The whole repair process was nine days including weekends which I think is darn good!
That said, I was without the phone/device for 2 weeks. Talk about withdrawals! LOL!
Amazing how reliant we become on these devices. I use it to manage my daily activities for 3 businesses, 1 job, and my personal life/activities. I was on the verge of anxiety at times! Hehehehe!
At least I had my trusty HTC 8125 as backup and while it cannot connect to my cellular provider's network for phone/text/data, at least I had my calendars, tasks, notes, and contacts but I'll tell ya, talk about feeling tethered to a land line and out of the loop.
Yep, it just got HardSPL 4, my preferred radio flash, BsB, Total Commander, and a few other goodies back on and is now syncing with my Desktop and Exchange. d'-'

It was not a bad price if it was a year ago, but I just picked up another near mint condition one for $150 with everything included off criaglist.
Sent from HTC HD2 with Android
Yeah, fair enough however, in Canada, the phone is not even available therefore my options were a bit more limited to purchase a new phone through a system where there is a little more security in knowing that if it turns out to be a bad deal, the purchase it covered. i.e. Buyer Protection from eBay or anything like that.
It's not like you can hop on a local Craigslist up here and find them readily.
So, the replacement cost for a whole phone was much higher, and the repair was the way to go.

You're a lucky guy.
I've had less good experiences in the Benelux here.
I called in mine for a screen and gps issue that is warranty issue since I run the official image on this HD2.
They didn't pickup the device twice as promised which drove me up the wall since I had my colleague involved and had to change several appointments with my clients for.
After I complained I got called by a customer care guy and was promised my device would be fixed one week after the pickup.
Called them this afternoon since we are one week further and my device was waiting for 2 parts but they didn't know which.
I wonder how many parts can break in the HD2 that direct to the fault. Guessing the main board and an LCD screen?
Well according to the customer service I will have to wait for the parts to come in.
I am so disappointed in the service and hole customer care after having a touch, touch pro, touch hd etc.
The touch pro which costed me over 500 Euro ended up in the trash after 3 failed repairs and numerous errors which where caused by the repair center. Sending it back to another address and name was only the tip of the iceberg.
Looking around for a dedicated Android device the LG optimus 2x looks good since it has a 24hour swap warranty.
Sorry to hear bro!
Heck, they even confirmed parts availability while on the initial call just prior to setting up the RMA. Maybe I just lucked out.
I work in the IT field and deal with all kinds of this stuff all the time and it has been years since I encountered this type of competence and efficiency. Don't know what else to say.
Have you checked out the Motorola Atrix?
http://www.motorola.com/Consumers/U...d-Services/Mobile-Phones/Motorola-ATRIX-US-EN
This thing looks cool! Watched several segments on it during the CES show back in February. My only question or disappointment was in all the promo vids from the CES they were touting Android 3 Honeycomb however at the Motorola site its tech specs list Android 2.2.
Good luck in your search!

thx for the headsup JayG!
Well lets say that I do the same work as you and do escallations and process realignments. If I could have a go in this whole thing .....
The Motorola looks interesting but try to find one in Europe.
I very agree with your assessment of HTC. My story is one better. I had bought my phone (HTC ELFIN P3452 TOUCH) in India. It had some battery charging issues and when on a whim I finally contacted HTC US, the lady told me that the warranty on the phone had expired 5 days back. I politely requested her if there is something she could do. She came back a few minutes later and told me she will take the phone as under warranty, but she will have to get back to me after figuring out where I should be sending the phone for repair as they figured HTC touch is not serviced anymore. I did not get a call back for 10 days and then I called back and explained my situation again and the previous call to a totally different lady. She gave me an RMA and asked me to ship to their TX facility. I got the phone back with brand new board in a week. But then I noticed a crack in the body. Since now the phone was under a 90 day warranty, I called back and explained the situation. They gave another RMA and so I sent it back. another week later, I get the phone back and it was brand new everything including the LCD and the phone. New IMEI.
HTC is top notch. So my current phone is HD2 and backup phone is Touch.
Anyone got recent experience of the repair service in UK?
Have just send my HD to have the touch screen repaired only to find out that their repair center is not good.
Any experiences?
Rob.
I just recently sent mine back. They returned it with the same fault I sent it in for. All they did was a factory reset.
This sounds familiar, I sent my wife's desire back 3 times with speaker noise. Came back reset every time with the same problem. After many phone calls and a letter to the CEO we were contacted by a Regional Customer Care Manager who again was worse than useless. Stand your ground as HTC policy is to replace phones after 3 failed attempts to repair the same fault. Hope this is useful.
I quoted the sale of goods act to Phones4U that states the retailer is liable for repairs, etc... I got a replacement sent out in 3-4 days.
I have the number of the Written Complaints Team of Phones4U if anyone needs it. I didn't write to them.

Same experience.
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
Although IANAL as Andy states in the UK your contract is with the retailer not the manufacturer, so it's the retailer who is required to sort the problems out, they can ask you to deal with the manufacturer direct BUT you are not obliged to do so.
They all get sent to HTC anyway and because Carphone Warehouse are doubly useless I chose to send mine to HTC direct.
I got my phone back within 3 weeks. I have no idea if they fixed it or not because they neglected to return my battery. I have now been waiting for a week for HTC to get stock back in again.
Shambles.
I really feel for you fellers as I've been on the arse end of rubbish repair service with a SONY, NOKIA & Phones4U in the past. My son's wildfire just came back from the UK repair centre & I have been absolutely amazed atwith all of it. From the inital call to the return of the phone - for a non working screen - 3 days, 3 days! Received this AM & so far all seems as it ought to be. Maybe I got lucky (& I do hope this positive post doesn't snap back & bite me on the butt) but I can't complain at all.
(That's killed it, I just know I've opened a world of pain for meself now )
Oh & I hope all you experiencing bad service really do get your stuff sorted to your satisfaction asap.
My first Desire HD bricked itself doing an OTA update, so I sent it back. I say "sent"... here's a rough timeline:
Monday @ 9am approx. - Called HTC
Monday @ 2pm approx. - Phone was picked up by courier!
Thursday - Received email to say the phone was fixed and was on the way back.
Monday @ 12 approx. - Received phone back from courier.
Bear in mind the Friday and second Monday were public holidays, so on a normal week I would have had it back on the Friday I think. As for the repair, they replaced the mainboard, shell and battery were original. I checked the hardware IDs etc, but HTC also confirmed the board replace when I called them.
All in all, I was quite satisfied. The only improvement would be to offer while you wait service by travelling to Milton Keynes and being in person.
That's pretty good. Far better than I received, here's my timeline.
Wk1 - Friday @ 10AM - Contacted HTC (Vibration Motor Failure) - Advised of 20+ days turnaround time due to repair centre re-location.
Wk2 - Tuesday @ Daytime - Handset picked up.
Wk3 -
Wk4 -
Wk5 -
Wk6 - Thursday @ 4PM - Contacted HTC to see where my handset was. Advised they had it and an engineer will look at it ASAP.
Wk7 - Tuesday @ Daytime - Courier returns handset. No notice given, luckily I had the day off.
Wk7 - Tuesday @ Daytime +1 - Contacted HTC - No repair made, vibration motor still faulty. Firmware updated to 2.36.405.8 - Advised of 20+ days turnaround, etc...
Wk7 - Tuesday @ Daytime +2 - Contacted Phones4U - Explained situation, got nowhere, reminded them of their responsibility under the Sale of Goods Act. "they are liable for repair, repair made in a reasonable timeframe, etc...." passed to "Written Complaints Team" they agreed with shocking turnaround and arranged a replacement.
Wk7 - Friday @ 10AM - Courier delivered brand new Desire HD.
Wk8 - Wednesday @ 9AM - Courier picked up faulty Desire HD.
Wk9 - Wednesday @ Daytime - Cheque of £50 through the post as compensation for my troubles. (I did not ask for this).

Yes agreed, but you are absolving them of responsibility by going it alone, which may make life more difficult for you in the long run.
Here is the reason I'm getting worried:
http://www.theregister.co.uk/2011/05/18/htc_failed_support/
The phone cost so much in the first place that I figured it best to get it sorted as soon as.
All the posts I logged about not being able to allow apps root etc, turns out it was the touch panel the whole time.
Since December when i got the phone I was thinking it was just me
I dropped it into a Vodafone Ireland shop so if it gets lost or comes back with the same fault, at least I will have someone to argue with.
Am back to using my old Omnia i900. Man is this thing a donkey. Hope my HD makes it back to me soon in one 100% working piece.
To those who have rooted their device and needed repair, do you need to unroot and S-on your device before sending?

It wouldn't do you any harm, but in the UK at least they can't decline a hardware warranty claim because you've rooted
I just ran the stock RUU over mine before returning it.
11 days ago HTC emailed me to advise they had dispatched a new battery......guess what.......yep, nowt.
They were also delighted to inform me that they had dispatched an 8GB mSDHC card by way of compensation........genius. We had actually agreed on a 16GB card. Either way it has not arrived anyway.
Utter shambles from start to finish.
Just got a call from Vodafone to say my phone had come back from repair.
Going to head out and get it shortly. Will be interesting to see if its actually fixed.
I had a bad experience.. took them 45 days to sort out my phone.
It was sent in due to a camera blur, it blurred the right hand side. I got told it will be 5 working days... These days came and went, so I called them up, to be told it is on the priority list, which means it will be sent out asap (a couple of days). This time period came and went. Long story short, they kept telling me my phone will be sent out in the next couple of days, when really it was sat there waiting for a new camera to be delivered from Taiwan, which I found out about 30 days in.
In the end, I quote the sales and goods act, and pointed them to the direction of their terms and conditions, which state that in a delay, either party must notify the other, but they never notified me. And the Act which stated that a repair must be done in a reasonable time frame, else a replacement product must be issued.
After I sent them off a letter stating this, I had an email reply saying that my phone will be with me by next wednesday, which also came and went... on the Thirsday they rung me up, telling me a new, boxed HTC Desire HD will be sent out to me, I got that on the Friday. Makes me wonder why they didn't save time with all this messing around, read their own terms and conditions, plus check out the law before they built a repair centre!
Overall, I was glad I had a brand new phone, but annoyed with their level of service, and lack of answers. I even had Orange ringing them up requesting my phone be returned to be as they had broken the law.
Matt
Just been to collect the phone and just as well i tested it in store.
Still not fixed. All they did was reload the software!
So, its off for another repair now with alot more details added to the description.
Exactly what they did to mine, I don't understand the thought process of these "Engineers/Technicians". Repair notes state,
"Faulty Vibration Motor: Does not vibrate / distinct scratching noise when supposed to vibrate".
Somehow updating the software to 2.36.405.8 will fix an obvious hardware fault?
I would like to recount my experience with HTC support.
This is HTC in Italy.
I have an Italian M7. It had the purple camera tint issue. I called HTC, they said it would take 15 days from the day I send it to them, to the day I get it back.
Today is day number 10.
Yesterday I called HTC to check up on device, was told by lady on the phone it was "AT THE END OF REPAIR PHASE" and would be shipped back to me within days.
Today I wake up to an email from HTC billing me for close to 200 euros, saying my phone is out of warranty and the screen needs to be replaced.
I call HTC, they have no idea what this email is, but they tell me my phone hasn't even started being repaired yet and that it will take 3-5 days for them to "INVESTIGATE" this 200 euro billing . This means that not only HTC lied to me the day before, but that they have no clue what they are doing.
I asked to speak with a manager, was told to wait 3 working days.
I was LIED to by HTC representatives when they said my phone was at the end of repairs yesterday AND my phone DID NOT have a broken screen. My phone only had the purple camera tint issue, I am going to spending close to 3 weeks without a phone probably. Thanks to excellent HTC customer service.
Pathetic, and disgusting, deceitful service. I strongly urge anyone considering buying an HTC device particularly in Italy to reconsider
The manager responsible is xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, I have emailed HTC global with a formal complaint, I have posted on their facebook pages both global and Italy and I considering calling the consumer protection association to file formal charges against HTC.
Update: HTC Italia on facebook has been deleting my posts in which I recount this same experience in Italian because it makes them look bad
UPDATE: HTC is claiming the screen is broken, thus voiding the warranty. I am speaking to the manager right now, he said he emailed me pictures of the broken screen. I did not receive anything. I told him the screen was not broken when I gave it to the courier. He said "its not our problem"
HTC handled the courier, HTC called me and told me when the courier is coming to take my phone. I did not contact the courier at any point. How is it not their problem ? I am now being told I must either pay 200 Euros to have my device fixed, (its in warranty PURPLE CAMERA ISSUE) or pay 35 to have it shipped back to me UNFIXED
Update: HTC manager in Italy told me I have to PROVE the phone was not broken when I sent it by contacting the courier.
I'd like to make it clear: HTC contacted the courier for me, this is my first time calling them or interacting with them in any way.
I called TNT, TNT said it's HTC's responsibility. I called the HTC Italy manager back, he said he will see what he can do.
In the meantime HTC US replied to me, told me that HTC Italy has to provide proof that they are following protocol, and that I should call the Consumer Protection Agency. They also said that 'HTC Italia' deleting my posts on their facebook is totally illegal.
Awesome. So basically my best case scenario is I get my phone back after suing HTC
Don't stop pressuring them. I think sooner or later they'll crack and probably fix your One or send you a replacemente.

Sooner or later I have to leave the country with no phone .... I'm leaving on october 1st
I was forwarded to a regional manager for Italy and Malta, it was implied that I ran my device over with a car and want it fixed for free.
I am totally and utterly disgusted with HTC service, I can't believe this. I'm going to be sending a fax to HTC Italy, Global and the Italian Consumer Protection Agency and Consumer magazines tomorrow detailing the issue. I will be seeking legal action against HTC Italy.
All this for a PURPLE TINT ISSUE
Needless to say, don't buy HTC products if you're in Italy
Thread closed. I've no idea where this is going - it's certainly not as if you're obviously asking for help or guidance.
I've edited out some of the less polite wording too, as well as someone's full name.
Please don't use XDA as a means of complaining about specific instances beyond anyone here's direct control, unless you're asking for very specific advice.
Thanks - and good luck with your phone problem.
