Re: N900 Lost. Warranty?
 

Oright, since you really want to push it, sure, I will waste my time and educate you. First of all, I am a mobile Device Engineer, if you believe it, good, if not, i dont care :). Second, I searched around for people who have had the MICRO (i dont know why people say Mini) Usb issue, and I read a lot. Throughout the reading, I got different answers, I also read stuff about people losing their phones and getting no replacement, then I thought, well technologically, Nokia can validate if the phone has been "lost", and therefore could figure out if the person is lying or not. Under that impression, I titled my post, to see what people would say. Fortunately, the maemo community is GREAT!, but unfortunately, there are people like you. Anyways, Remember the real problem is that my Micro Usb got broken. Thanks for wasting my time again. :)!

Re: N900 Lost. Warranty?
 

ever heard about this thing called fraud? because you have just made one...

Re: N900 Lost. Warranty?
 

huh? How so?

Re: N900 Lost. Warranty?
 

could you please show me official statements that hardware modifications don't void warranty?

they just don't probably care because they change the whole circuit board and usb-connector failures are by design (=warranty).

Re: N900 Lost. Warranty?
 

did you mention that you have overclocked the device when you took it to service?

Re: N900 Lost. Warranty?
 

I have had my N900 overclocked for a long time. I didnt take the phone to service, I shipped it. I still have the warranty I got on it, so the phone is repairable, since Nokia has announced that as long as the phone is still under warranty, the micro usb issue will be repaired. (so i guess no, overclocking it doesnt prevent repairing hardware that HAS NOTHING TO DO with overclocking) which was my original question.

Re: N900 Lost. Warranty?
 

so you didn't mention that you have overclocked the device.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fraud

you
1) didn't tell everything
2) gained profit (got your device fixed)

e: when you overclock, you accept the fact that you don't have warranty anymore. you have voided the warranty yourself.

please read the sentences above as long as you realize something before you reply.

Re: N900 Lost. Warranty?
 

lol thats funny.

"1) didn't tell everything"
The next time you drink and drive (if you do), and you get pulled over, make sure you tell the officer "I HAVE BEEN DRINKING" even if he doesnt ask you!
"2) gained profit (got your device fixed)"
It is my right to get the device fixed, as long as it is under warranty, and every piece of information I provided is correct (Everything I asked was answered properly.

So, there you have it. Dont try to outsmart people.

Re: N900 Lost. Warranty?
 

*1. If you run someone over, do you stop at the scene or just drive off?

Anyway gomaemo. You are a Mobile Device Engineer eh? Since you told me, I have been totally blown away by your heroism. Wow! You are actually a Mobile Device Engineer?! Can I touch you? You are my hero, for now and for always.

Lol.

I still think you lost your phone, and you came on here to see if other people had tried to swindle Nokia into giving them another phone.

Re: N900 Lost. Warranty?
 

No, you cannot touch me, and Yes, I probably am your hero, considering the amount of phones I have written software for. And just so you know, I never lost my N900, and this was sent to me a few days ago, from nokia, about my phone:

"
