Guest Joost39 Posted May 16, 2008 Report Share Posted May 16, 2008 Nope, because the seller/store did not help me with the RMA, so I contacted ASUS support and they send UPS to collect it last week. (its been waiting for over a week now) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You shouldn't have to pay to fix it yourself. It's Asus' legal obligation to do it for you. Don't let them off the hook - doing so does nobody any favours. If Asus (or their repair agents) don't see and suffer the cost of repairs and returns they will do nothing to fix the design. What's more you will be throwing the rest of your warranty in the bin too if you attempt to repair it yourself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Zigo Posted May 16, 2008 Report Share Posted May 16, 2008 Dammit! My P750 has just developed a corner crack. :D Mine too, on both top corners. They're only hairline though, they don't bother me and I can only see them if I really look. I certainly wouldn't think about sending it away to be repaired for such a tiny fault. I don't know how it happened, but I did use to have it in a position in my bag where it could've been knocked about a bit. I now place it more securely. I read somewhere that it can only record video in QCIF (176x144) - is this true? For anyone interested, and if you didn't already know - if you set in the advanced options the file extension as MP4 (instead of 3GP) then it will record video at 320x240.

I suspect that slight flexing of the case is what leads to the crack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I certainly wouldn't think about sending it away to be repaired for such a tiny fault. It might not matter now, but it will when you come to trade in the phone or flog it on ebay to pay for your next gadget. The longer you keep it, the worse it will get, and the more the reseller will claim it's "wear and tear" and try to wriggle out of their obligation. If you've had it less than 28 days, get it swapped. I don't know how it happened, but I did use to have it in a position in my bag where it could've been knocked about a bit. I now place it more securely. It's already been asserted that's a design fault, so why blame yourself? Edited May 16, 2008 by Metoo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Joost39 Posted May 16, 2008 Report Share Posted May 16, 2008 (edited) Agreed Metoo - its a design fault - the tiny toxscrews are cracking all 4 corners - and ASUS knows about it! And in a few weeks time it will become worse - trust me :o ASUS support are not very fast to answer, send UPS, or repair it. Maybe it will have to go :D :( - when I get it back?

Our just make reboots ? :D Thanks. I've been using 0.17 for some time now, and it starts at 21MB or so, but falls to 16MB and stays there. Havn't had any problems with it so far, so I'm keeping the VGA. I'll upgrade to 0.18 once I get the time, but it's the same as 0.17 just with a few other features added.

Guest stemaw Posted May 21, 2008 Report Share Posted May 21, 2008 Anyone know where I can find a replacement screen for my P750 or somewhere that will repair it? Managed to render the phone useless by scratching the screen (foolishly put it in my pocket - apparently not the thing to do!). Asus want to charge me 67 quid just to post it to them so they can give me a quote :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Zigo Posted May 23, 2008 Report Share Posted May 23, 2008 I'd like to install the VGA ROM. This is my first Windows Mobile phone and I've never changed ROM on it before, so any help would be appreciated with these questions: Will I need to back up my current ROM first? Am I likely to lose anything when I put the new ROM on? (programs, messages, settings, etc.) Can I easily restore my phone back to its current state if anything goes wrong? Although I've not done this exact process before, I've flashed other hardware (DVD writer, HDD recorder, etc.) before. I'm a software developer and I know my way around hardware and software pretty well. I just like to always cover myself with a backup should anything go wrong.
