Date your phone was Manufactured Vs. Problems with phone

Dial ##778
Call
View Mode

Scroll down to "Manufacturers Date"

Maybe we can see if these "pink screens", "blown speakers", "bad call quality", "weak signal" issues came from a certain batch of phones from HTC.

Please Give Thanks!

Really strange thing...my 1st phone (pre-ordered and received the day before launch) has NO manufacturing date. The replacement phone does... I thought this was really weird.

Mine doesnt have activation date either.

Warranty date I believe is date and time you activated so they know the one year from that date is when your warranty ends..

Dunno about life counter.

Dialing ##778 does nothing on my phone. What gives?

No idea. never had it not work.

Should bring up quick "please wait while initializing" screen then a EPST menu with view mode and edit mode...

Dunno about life counter.

Warranty date is supposed to be the end date of the warranty, 1 year from activation, but mine says 11/6/2010 which cannot be correct. I activated my Incredible on 5/3/2010

I wonder if life counter is hours the device is awake? That could be very interesting.....


MFG Date 4/25/10 Had call quality issues but a hard reset fixed it.

4/14/10 ... Call quality issues. But improved to the point of acceptable

Btw if your using the app "Call Confirm" calling ##778 didn't work.

 

[contagous]

Manufactured Date : 5/24/2010
Problems : Unresponsive Screen when on most soft surfaces and car dock. Verizon and HTC told me was grounding issue and would be fixed via OTA update sometime soon.

Phone is being replaced anyways, New one be here soon, and will post about that handset...


P.S:

If you have call confirm installed, you have to uninstall it to view this menu, then you can re-install it after checking...
